Chapter 1529: Chapter 1548: Personally Co to Pick Up
“No need, we already have soone to pick us up.” Jiang Yang was ticulous and thoughtful; he had arranged everything for her.
“No way!” Lin Yizhong noticed his attempt at persuasion was useless, and his attitude grew firr, “Taking you back is a military order, and I must fulfill it.”
As Lin Yizhong turned hostile, the atmosphere beca tense, like a drawn blade ready to strike.
Emil quietly clenched Nan Fei’s clothing, hiding behind her without daring to stick his head out.
Xing Yu stood firmly at Nan Fei’s side, refusing to yield even half a step.
Lin Yizhong was both enraged and amused. He turned to Xing Yu and said, “You! Aren’t you coming over? Is this how you behave in front of your superior?”
“Sorry, Leader Lin, but my current mission is to ensure Jiang Nanfei’s safety.” Xing Yu refused him outright.
Lin Yizhong’s temper exploded. He kicked a stone in front of him, sending it flying, and cursed, “This is what you call protection? This is how you protect her?”
Xing Yu’s guilt was overwhelming.
Nan Fei lightly patted his hand and said to Xing Yu, “My blindness has nothing to do with him. If there’s any connection, it’s indirect and ties back to Huo Beijiang. After all, before being thrown into the prisoner camp, I could still see. And wasn’t it his people who imprisoned ? That Burbank? Or Ding Jiaqi?”
Lin Yizhong froze, as though soone had stabbed him directly in the heart. His face flushed red and then turned pale, unable to say a word for a long mont.
What Nan Fei just said didn’t rely stab his heart—it cut through all their hearts. It was like an unforgiving blade aid straight at their leader, utterly relentless.
Lin Yizhong couldn’t help feeling relieved their leader wasn’t present. If Huo Beijiang heard this, how on earth could he bear it?
“Nan Fei…” Lin Yizhong finally bit his teeth and said, “Since you refuse to co back with , I won’t force you.” After saying that, he turned around and went back to his car to make a call.
Since he couldn’t complete the task himself, he’d have to let his leader step in personally.

The lights outside the infirmary were bright, and Huo Beijiang stood tall, not knowing how long he’d been there. Only when the sound of synchronized footsteps echoed behind him did he turn around.
Kaka walked over with a furrowed brow, his face showing discontent. “Second Brother, what are you doing? Who’s so important you need to guard them personally?” Seriously, this was too much!
“A friend,” Huo Beijiang said bitterly.
“That important?” At the ntion of a friend, Kaka imdiately looked displeased. “I’ve never heard you say you had a friend so important as to warrant this kind of attention.”
Huo Beijiang couldn’t help but chuckle wryly, “He’s not my friend. But he’s a friend to my wife. If he dies, my wife will probably hate for the rest of her life.”
Reaching out with sympathy, Kaka patted his shoulder. Having grown up surrounded by won, he understood imdiately. “Brother, the feeling of saving your love rival must be awful, huh?”
Huo Beijiang: “…”
“I’ve told you not to co back so many tis, but you insisted. Now look at what’s happened. Forget marrying eight wives, even your one and only wife is about to be snatched away.”
Huo Beijiang, furious, slamd his shoulder hard into Kaka.
The surrounding people were so terrified their hearts nearly stopped; soone even gasped aloud and cried out, “Your Majesty!”
“Shut up!” Kaka swept an intimidating and fierce look toward them, terrifying everyone into half-bowing imdiately.
“Calm down!” Huo Beijiang said with mild displeasure, “Don’t forget what you promised .”
“Got it!” Kaka suppressed the dark fury in his heart and changed the topic, “What about Ding Jiaqi? I think she’s a good fit for you.”
