âYou guys can go if you have something to do. Iâll still be here.â Chen Xuyao did not know why Jiang Yao was there, but he noticed that she lacked manpower. So he said, âI can get a few of our companyâs best security guards to help you.â
âThatâs great!â Ah Lu immediately interrupted him. âMr Jiang needs someone to protect him, but Big Ke and I canât spare the time. If we have more people, that would be the best.â
Jiang Yao did not have any objections. She thought of asking Chen Zhibin to help her for a few days, but the manâs old mother needed him at home. It was almost the New Year, and they were quite far from Nanjiang City. That was why she hesitated to call him about that.
Chen Xuyao immediately took out his phone and called his assistant to give them instructions and informed them of his location.
After breakfast, Jiang Yao brought Big Ke and Chen Xuyao back to her room. Chu Sheng went to the Zhou familyâs house, and Ah Lu went to handle other matters.
As they went through the door, Chen Xuyao sat down with his legs crossed. He wanted to smoke. However, when he saw Jiang Yao was drinking water with a cup in her hand, he put his cigarette away. His third brother had warned him that he was not allowed to smoke in front of his wife; he did not want his wife to become a second-hand smoker.
âHow long will Chu Sheng stay in Yuan City? How did she become involved in this matter?â Chen Xuyao knocked on the table with the cigarette box in his hand; he looked a little annoyed.
âXiaocheng has a neighbor who is a police officer, and he has a captain. Chu Sheng is this captainâs brotherâs senior sister.â Jiang Yao knew that Chen Xuyao was jealous. He had been looking for her for two months, but he could not find her. However, someone else had found her instead.
âTsk.â Chen Xuyao gritted his teeth. Even someone with such a distant relationship could find her. It meant that Chu Sheng had avoided him.
âChu Sheng majored in criminal psychology. She canât speak because of psychological reasons, so I canât treat her. Sheâs also a psychology major. Sheâll likely be like this for the rest of her life.â Jiang Yao glanced at Chen Xuyao as she asked, âWhatâs your attitude toward Chu Sheng?â
âI know what you wanted to ask. Thereâs no need for you to ask me so tactfully; itâs okay for me to tell you. I want to marry her, but sheâs not willing to talk to me. Sheâs even avoiding me.â Chen Xuyao smiled self-deprecatingly. âIâve been thinking about her for almost ten years, and Iâve looked for her for that duration. Even if we havenât met for so many years, I still want to marry her.â
âYour family has a very high standard. She canât speak, and she doesnât have a job. Even if she is willing to marry you, can you marry her?â Jiang Yao felt that it was very unlikely.
âDo you think my parents are like Old Master Chen?â Chen Xuyao snorted unhappily. âAfter I graduated from the military academy, I could do whatever I wanted to do. I can find anyone I like to marry. As long as she doesnât have a criminal background, my parents wonât object to our union.â
Chen Xuyao laughed. He straightened his posture and moved closer to Jiang Yao. He smiled. âThere are two significant matters in the Chen family recently. Do you want to know what they are?â
âIs it about Chen Feibai or Chen Feitang?â Jiang Yao raised her eyebrows. âIf itâs about Chen Feibai, do tell me. If itâs about Chen Feitang, then save your breath; I donât want to hear it.â
âOne for each of them. The two siblings are in the same boat now.â Chen Xuyao smiled wickedly.
