Chapter 23 - 23

Chapter 23: Interested in the little girl?After listening, Wang Xu led his underlings into the van and drove off with great fanfare towardCute Pet Paradise.After everyone left, Lin Anran instructed the people in the truck to unload the goods by the roadside and send someone back to report.Lin Yu asked Lin Anran curiously, "Sis, whatexactly did you say to Wang Xu?"Lin Anran put her things in the trunk, turned her head and met three pairs of curious eyes, and couldn't help but laugh out loud, "It's nothing, just asking Wang Xu to ask for some medical expenses, after all, we beat them up! Someone has to pay for it!"Lin Yu suddenly had a flash of insight: "I get it! Sis, you're so smart!"Mother Lin couldn't help but retort, "Yeah! If only you were half as smart as your sister! She's too silly, I don't know who she takes after."Father Lin: "Anyway, it doesn't look like me!"Lin Yu said, injured, "As expected, I was picked up from the trash can by you guys."Lin Yu is indeed a source of joy. Everyone busily loaded their things into the trunk, and Lin Anransecretly put the larger items into her personal storage space. It wasn't too tiring, and the whole journey was filled with laughter.Cute Pet Paradise ——"Ah! Please! Glug glug... Please... please let me go! I'll give you money, glug glug... okay!"Hearing that he wanted it, Wang Xu gestured for his underlings to set up Boss Liu's table. He put one hand in his pocket and said in a high-pitched voice, "Twenty thousand? Not much, is it?"Boss Liu's eyes widened, fearing he would be tortured again. He quickly nodded, "Okay! Okay! I'll give it to you! Please, please let me go!"After swiping their cards, the group left the place of trouble in a large swarm. Of course, they were still kind enough to leave Boss Liu a pair of scissors so he could save himself.The man pulled the black stockings off his head and threw them on the roadside with a look of disgust. " Brother Xu! Do you think this is okay? Won't we get caught?"Even now, Boss Liu's heart-wrenching screams of despair still send chills down his spine. It was terrifying. He'd better be gentler next time.Wang Xu flicked his bank card. "What? This isBoss Liu giving us for medical expenses. We're taking it to put his mind at ease, is that not allowed?"The younger brothers immediately understood their leader's meaning and were so happy they almost wanted to hug and kiss Wang Xu."Brother, you're so smart!"Wang Xu raised an eyebrow. "Isn't that because of our sister? Everyone remembers our eldest sister, right? Next time we see her, it'll still be our sister.""Understood, bro!"Lin Anran received the message the next day.Wang Xu had already transferred the money to his brothers' cards very late, and he didn't dare to disturb Lin Anran.The next day, he woke up and immediately shared the good news with his sister.Lin Anran smiled and carried Tuantuan to the restaurant. "Today we'll have fresh meat hydrolyzed cereal and a bottle of milk."Tuantuan's ears immediately perked up, "Meow~"Father Lin, wearing an apron, came out of the kitchen and said with a gentle smile, "OurTuantuan is still a little glutton!"Meow~I'm not craving it, I'm just hungry.Lin Anran put Tuantuan, who was trying to get down to eat, on the ground, and a blur of movement appeared as she darted to the rice bowl.Hahahaha!"..."E Municipal Government Office"No! I disagree! Jiang Qinian! Don't think you can control me just because you've gained the attention of those above. I'm not dead yet!"Despite the middle-aged man's loud noise in the office, the man on the sofa remained relaxed, leaning back in his chair with his long, slender legs crossed and his long fingertips lightly tapping the armrest of the sofa.The man's casualness only fueled Division Chief Feng's anxiety and anger." Jiang Qinian! You're insane! There's no way I'll hand him over to you."Jiang Qinian's deep, icy eyes coldly gazed at the middle-aged man. He raised his thick eyebrows, and a slight smile played on his thin lips, sending chills down the spines of those who saw him."Heh~ Division Chief Feng, have you forgotten what you did? Should I help you remember?"Ma Yang timely took out a thick stack of documents from his briefcase and gently placed them on the table.Division Chief Feng glanced at the contents of the document and gritted his teeth, saying, "Jiang Qinian!!! You...you dare to do that."Ma Yang stepped forward and stopped the agitated Division Chief Feng. He adjusted his droopy eye sockets and fixed his sharp gaze on the middle-aged man in front of him."You! Ma Yang! Who do you think you are? How dare you stop me!"Ma Yang's eyes were cold, and his thin lips curved into a sarcastic smile. His refined and elegant demeanor only fueled Division Chief Feng's anger."I'm telling you, we don't have any people. Unless we get instructions from above, it's impossible!"Just as Ma Yang was about to step forward, he was stopped by the man on the sofa.Jiang Qinian stood up, his long legs appearing even more upright, and his deep voice rang inDivision Chief Feng's ears."Then I'll trouble Division Chief Feng to send the person to the base for me."His slow, deliberate tone, powerful aura, and deep, magnetic voice filled Division Chief Fengwith a chilling aura.By the time Division Chief Feng came to his senses, the person was already far away." Jiang Qinian! How dare you threaten me!"He strode to his desk, picked up the phone, and said, "Hello? Xiao Liu! Make an appointment with Director Li for me, okay? As soon as possible."...Once inside the SUV, Ma Yang couldn't help but glance at the man exuding a cold aura in the back seat. Boss was too awesome; look how scared he had Division Chief Feng, he was almost scared to death.Am I pretty?Jiang Qinian spoke coldly.Ma Yang quickly looked away, admiring the scenery outside. "Boss, what are you saying? What do you mean you're beautiful? I'm clearly looking at the scenery!"His constantly shaking legs had already betrayed his nervous and flustered state of mind.Oh my god! This is terrifying! Is his boss made of a refrigerator?"Aren't you leaving yet?""Alright, boss!"The SUV sped away, leaving only a trail of exhaust fumes in the distance."Temperatures have been dropping recently, so please take precautions to keep warm. Heavy rain is expected in five days...""No way? Boss, it's happening again. This damn weather, one minute I feel like I'm going to die from the heat, the next I feel like I'm going to die from the cold, and then I feel like I'm going to drown."Jiang Qinian frowned slightly, his cold eyes revealing seriousness. "I told the brothers these past two days to take a break, stock up on supplies, and try not to leave the base.""Okay! Boss, I'll make the arrangements. Everyone should get some rest too."Ma Yang suddenly remembered something and said cautiously, "Oh right! Boss, Auntie called a couple of days ago and said she found you a sister-in-law and wants you to come home and meet her."Jiang Qinian's icy aura instantly filled the carriage, and Ma Yang couldn't help but shiver.He knew this was the boss's sore spot, and he didn't want to say it. If his aunt hadn't promised to make him his favorite braised pig's trotters, he wouldn't have become cannon fodder!Jiang Qinian, sitting in the back seat, suddenly remembered the polite little boy she had seen a couple of days ago.He rubbed his temples and closed his sharp, beautiful eyes. He was too tired to be interested in a child.
