Chapter 63: Chapter 63: Truly a Good Child Chapter 63: Chapter 63: Truly a Good Child The person on the other end of the phone was unaware that their few casual remarks had caused the entire organization’s task load to soar overnight.
“Boss, you’re really heartless, scamming even your fiancé out of money. Was competing for tasks with him your way of dating in the past?”
Qingwu: “…”
“Get lost, I want to see the latest data on Reagent No. 3 by tomorrow morning.”
A piercing scream ca from the other end of the phone!
“Boss, just because we interrupted your date, you’re making the brothers stay up all night. That’s too cruel!”
Fearing more experintal data might be added, Tian Tong quickly hung up the phone and blocked his boss’s number.
Pei Jue’s smile grew even wider. A muffled laugh emanated from his chest, particularly alluring.
“So my fiancée likes this kind of date? Then Deep Sea will cooperate more with High Tower in the future, giving us more opportunities to date.”
Like what?
This kind of thing was called a date?
Qingwu glanced at him inexplicably and said calmly, “Why did you place the order?”
“I’m not that generous and don’t want my fiancée treating other n.”
“Your grandpa is also a man.”
Pei Jue: “…”
“Isn’t he? Then next ti, I’ll tell Elder Pei you’re saying he’s not a man.”
Pei Jue’s smile was completely stifled by her, a rare embarrassed look appeared on his handso face. His eyes were tinged with a blush, making his exceptionally attractive face appear even more beautiful.
Qingwu’s lips curved slightly, revealing a satisfied smile!
This man was just petty. As a doctor, why would she care about a patient’s gender? He just wanted to find fault!
“How do you know Tarzan is seeing a man?”
Pei Jue took off his gold-rimd glasses and handed them to Qingwu, “Wipe them for , can’t see the road clearly.”
“Even plain glasses need wiping? I think you see better without them.”
“They’re special glasses.”
Qingwu picked them up, adjusted the angle of the lenses, and a thin data board appeared before her eyes, revealing a miniature surveillance device!
This device was a high-priced research item from Beidou Star, sold on the black market. She didn’t expect Pei Jue to have bought it…
All Beidou Star’s data ca from her hands. Seeing this surveillance device, Qingwu understood what Pei Jue ant.
“You installed surveillance around Tarzan?”
“Didn’t you do the sa? I said, my fiancée and I are always in sync.”
Qingwu was silent for a mont, took out a handkerchief she carried with her, and carefully wiped the lenses clean before handing them back to Pei Jue.
“My people aren’t spying on Tarzan; they’re looking for the director of the Love Orphanage.”
Tarzan had taken the director of the Love Orphanage, and Beidou Star’s people had been tracking them.
Pei Jue liked watching her seriously wipe his glasses like this, the girl under the night slightly lowering her head, her crow-like eyelashes blocking her starry eyes, giving him more ti to look at her.
Thinking of this quiet and elegant appearance was due to her wiping his lenses, Pei Jue’s heart softened, feeling warmth he hadn’t felt in a long ti.
It was Qingwu’s magic, always making him want to be closer to her…
He put on his glasses and drove the car back towards the city.
“The people I arranged got near Tarzan, and caught along with the Drug King was Tarzan’s brother. He has another brother with a terminal illness. That’s why he’s been frantically searching for Ghost Doctor Chang Yue.”
“Yes, he approached the Drug King seemingly to make money in Hua Country, but he actually wanted the Illusion Heart Grass in the Drug King’s possession. I’ve analyzed the components of Illusion Heart Grass, and it indeed has a dicinal effect on so cancers.”
“So he won’t give up easily. Be careful these days.”
Qingwu nodded. A team constantly followed her, making it difficult for Tarzan’s people to approach her.
“So let drive you around for now, or else I won’t be at ease.”
Qingwu: “…”
Lately, she had been rotating between accompanying her three brothers, video-calling with Shushan who was filming, and Shaojia who was experinting. When she had ti, she’d go to Qiao Xi Hospital to play chess with the elders. Did she really need him to drive her?
“You haven’t got a driver’s license yet. I’ll be my fiancée’s exclusive driver, how about that?”
Qingwu glanced at him blandly, “If you like being a driver, you could register as a Didi driver and earn so spare cash.”
“Is my fiancée already planning for ? So considerate! Rest assured, your fiancé’s money-making skills aren’t bad; you won’t go hungry in the future. The Chang Yue order we just took is considered your consultation fee, and if Grandpa’s dicine costs anything, just co to , understood?”
Qingwu: “…”
Is that what she ant?
“If anything dangerous happens, rember to co to , okay?”
Could she find him in a real ergency?
Pei Jue drove onto a small path, stopped under a dim streetlight, and suddenly leaned in, placing one hand on the car window beside Qingwu, looking at her with overwhelming intensity.
“Qingwu, I know you’ve always been independent and impressive. My fiancée isn’t like the average girl. But you have family now. If you can, I’d hope you’d trust . Whatever the Shen Family can give you, I can too. Whatever they can’t, I still can.”
His voice carried a deep, srising allure, like a siren softly singing by the shore.
“For instance, I can offer you my embrace and my back.”
Qingwu’s eyes widened slightly, her long eyelashes trembling a bit.
They were both assassins; they knew their backs were only shown to their most trusted partners in life and death!
“So, try to trust , rely on , and think of a little. When you need, let pick you up, okay?”
His tone carried a hint of hurt, as if accusing her or maybe pleading, making Qingwu’s heart soften imdiately.
“Okay, I got it.”
Pei Jue gently patted her head, his hand warm and slightly moist. Only he knew how nervous he was facing Qingwu so closely. If he weren’t afraid of scaring this young girl, he’d have done sothing more outrageous.
But not yet; she was still too young and might be afraid of him.
Pei Jue didn’t hold back in praising her, “Such a good girl.”

Qiao Xi Hospital, Beijing
In Mrs. Shen’s ward, Zuo Wanjun watched as Mrs. Shen drowsily nodded off and subtly shifted her feet after standing for two hours.
She had been called here early in the morning, and without a word being said, was just left standing!
Whenever Mrs. Shen was in a bad mood, she’d tornt her like this, and Zuo Wanjun had sowhat gotten used to it.
“Eldest daughter-in-law, when did you get here? Did I ask you to co?”
Eldest daughter-in-law?
Mrs. Shen had only Shen Dongli as a child, and thus only one daughter-in-law, so where was there an eldest or second?
Zuo Wanjun was a bit puzzled, wondering if Mrs. Shen had co up with so new way to tornt her?
“Mom, it was you who called early this morning wanting porridge from ho, so I brought it for you.”
The porridge, placed by Mrs. Shen’s side, emitted a rich rice fragrance, making one’s mouth water just by slling it.
Mrs. Shen’s expression turned a bit confused, completely forgetting about calling Zuo Wanjun over.
“Oh, hand it over to .”
Zuo Wanjun held the porridge, preparing to feed Mrs. Shen.
Yet, Mrs. Shen stretched out her hand, suddenly knocking the bowl from Zuo Wanjun’s grasp to the floor!
“Get out! You’re trying to harm ! You poisoned the food; I’m calling the police!”
