He Jianguo’s face turned red as he said, "No, it was just a coincidence."
Chu Feng chuckled. "Don’t take it so seriously, I was just joking."
After the al, Rao Ning hurried to wash the dishes, leaving Xie ngying no choice but to let her.
"Jianguo, Brother, Sister-in-Law, you guys sit here for a while. I’ll go help in the kitchen and also see if you have the faces of those who will bear sons. Let’s see when you can hold a grandchild," Chu Feng said.
"Yes! Yes! Go ahead." Lin Xue i had been dreaming of holding a grandchild, and upon hearing Chu Feng’s words, she promptly responded.
anwhile, He Jianguo blushed deeply, and Xie ngying found Chu Feng’s behavior a bit perplexing, but she did not inquire further.
The living room where Chu Feng was at He Zhen’s house was separate from His previous one, providing a relatively independent space.
"Young uncle, I can handle it myself," Rao Ning said as she washed the dishes, not even turning her head.
"Identifying by my footsteps alone, it seems you are a bit stronger than I thought," Chu Feng suddenly said in a lancholy tone.
Hearing Chu Feng’s words, Rao Ning’s hands involuntarily paused above the sink.
"You should have known Jianguo’s identity for a long ti, right?" Chu Feng asked.
When Chu Feng first t Rao Ning, he had already sensed the fluctuations of Inner Strength in her body. He had made an excuse to co in, also wanting to probe Rao Ning’s background.
"Yes, I knew about Jianguo’s identity long ago. I approached him on purpose. But after getting to know him, I found that Jianguo is a good person, a good official. I fell in love with him," she confessed.
Chu Feng could not see Rao Ning’s expression, but he knew that when she spoke these words, her face must have been filled with happiness.
"I truly love him. I never thought about harming him," Rao Ning said without turning her head.
Chu Feng slightly raised his hand, and a kitchen knife moved close to Rao Ning’s face.
"Space manipulation, Earth Level technique!" Rao Ning stared at the kitchen knife in front of her, her eyes filled with shock and horror.
Chu Feng said, "It’s because I know you truly love Jianguo that you are still standing here talking to ."
As Chu Feng’s words ended, the kitchen knife moved back to its original place without making a sound.
"Tell , who sent you, and what was your purpose for getting close to Jianguo?" Chu Feng asked.
Turning around to face Chu Feng, Rao Ning said, "I don’t know who sent . My connection with the organization is one-way; I don’t know what mission the organization is handling. My only task was to get close to He Jianguo and gather all his whereabouts and information."
Chu Feng scoffed, "And to kill him at a critical mont, right?"
Rao Ning nodded and replied, "Yes. The organization did have such an order, but I couldn’t go through with it. I have already betrayed the organization. I killed the contact person. I would rather die myself than see Jianguo get hurt."
Chu Feng stared at Rao Ning and said, "You told all this, do you expect to sympathize with you, to keep your secret?"
Rao Ning shook her head and said, "No. I never thought about anyone forgiving , and I never intended to keep it from Jianguo. But now, I’m not sure if the organization will still send soone else. I stayed by Jianguo’s side with only one purpose: to ensure his safety. But now, with you here, his safety is assured."
Chu Feng observed Rao Ning, trying to gauge which parts of her statent were true and which were false.
"Tell the na of your organization?" Chu Feng demanded.
"Hell God!" Rao Ning said.
"Hell God again, what exactly does it want to do?" Chu Feng asked.
Rao Ning said, "I don’t know, I’m only responsible for carrying out tasks, not their purposes. However, I did get so information from the person I contact alone. They seem to be employed by the Elite Society with the purpose of undermining the stability of East River."
Upon hearing Rao Ning’s words, Chu Feng suddenly understood. He wasn’t at all surprised that the Elite Society could do such a thing.
"It seems the Elite Society is growing bolder, they definitely need a good thrashing." Chu Feng’s eyes turned cold, filled with rage and the intent to kill.
He Jianguo was his own man, the Elite Society could not possibly be unaware of that. Yet, they still dared to target his people, which was sothing Chu Feng could not tolerate.
"That’s all I know, I’m leaving now, I hope you can help explain to Jianguo, and hope he doesn’t hate ." After saying that, Rao Ning prepared to leave the kitchen.
Chu Feng said, "Don’t you want to explain to Jianguo yourself?"
Rao Ning halted her steps, saying, "I want to, but I can’t."
Chu Feng said, "He isn’t as fragile as you think. Go explain it yourself. Of course, you could choose not to tell, and I can pretend as if nothing ever happened; besides, your staying by Jianguo’s side is also a safeguard for him."
Upon hearing Chu Feng’s words, Rao Ning’s eyes lit up, saying, "I can still stay by Jianguo’s side?"
Chu Feng said, "I’m not one to break up true love, especially since it’s not easy for Jianguo to find true love at his age. It’s up to you to decide what to do."
After Chu Feng spoke, he left the kitchen.
When he returned to the living room, Lin Xue i imdiately asked, "Little brother, what do you think about my daughter-in-law? Can she give a rosy-cheeked chubby grandson?"
"What are you talking about." He Zhen frowned and said.
Lin Xue i shot a glance at He Zhen and said, "If you don’t want to hear, then let’s go talk over there, little brother."
"When everyone’s already talking, why speak behind their backs? Just tell it, let everyone listen." Although He Zhen verbally objected, deep down he was just as eager as Lin Xue i to hold a grandchild.
Lin Xue i glared at He Zhen and said, "You old ghost."
Chu Feng also chuckled and said, "Big brother, sister-in-law, don’t worry. I assure you will be able to hug both a grandson and a granddaughter."
"Haha! Really twins, that’s wonderful! I bought so small clothes last month, I’ll be able to use them soon," Lin Xue i said excitedly.
He Jianguo’s face turned red and he said, "Mom, it’s still early."
Lin Xue i said, "What do you an early? You two must get married before November. If it’s quick, I could be holding a grandson by next November, how is that early? Tomorrow your dad and I are going to look at baby strollers for you."
He Zhen said, "This is a bit early, isn’t it?"
Lin Xue i said, "What do you know, nowadays the strollers all have a sll and need to be aired out beforehand."
He Zhen said, "I overlooked that, let’s go check them out tomorrow morning then."
Upon hearing He Zhen’s words, both Chu Feng and Xie ngying couldn’t help but laugh. He Jianguo’s face grew even redder. If such a scene were seen by outsiders, it would probably beco explosive news.
Rao Ning stood at the entrance of the living room, watching the scene she had been longing for, the heartache only known to her. Taking a deep breath, Rao Ning eventually decided to tell the truth.
