Chapter 108 - Curiosity Killed the Cat

At this point, Qin Ran continued, “My parents almost used up all their medical skills. Fortunately, they managed to save his life. After he recovered from his injuries, he insisted on repaying the favor, so I became his disciple. At that time, I only knew his full name, Duan Ming. It was a long time before I understood how powerful he was.”

Qin Ran only mentioned one of these old matters. There were still many things that couldn’t be mentioned.

No wonder, no wonder Qin Ran could knock him down with her bare hands on the first night she came to the Mo Residence. It turned out that her skills were inherited from Duan Ming.

“So, Mo Chi, my skills are really not bad.” How could it not be bad? It was simply outstanding. Everyone in the industry knew that although Beautiful Fox was a woman, there were not many men in this industry who could defeat her.

Since she was Duan Ming’s disciple, could it be that this lass had already heard of his true identity? Hence, Mo Chi asked tentatively, “Fog, do you know Fog?”

When she heard the name of her arch-enemy, Qin Ran’s heart tightened. After so many years of professional habits, she had long been trained to have reflex conditions. The regiment commander and the commander-in-chief of the Military and Political Affairs Office, Fog, was too famous. She had already confessed that she was Duan Ming’s disciple. If she insisted that she didn’t know Fog now, it would really be suspicious.

So Qin Ran nodded. “Of course I’ve heard of Fog.”

He had already confessed to Qin Ran about his firearms business. Sooner or later, he would need to tell her about his true past. In that case, he might as well find out what her impression of his identity was.

“What kind of person do you think he is?”

“He’s ruthless, inhumane, and dictatorial. He’s also unreasonable and cold. In short, I don’t think he’s a good person.” When she mentioned Fog, the above adjectives seemed to have grown feet and ran out of her mouth.

Upon hearing this, Mo Chi gasped. The lass’s unhesitating reaction and resolute tone made him feel uneasy. How much would he have to pay in the future to change Qin Ran’s stereotype of Fog? What kind of nonsense did this Duan Ming teach her?

Mo Chi would remember this debt.

“Mr. Mo, with my skills, I don’t think I need to find any bodyguards, right?” Qin Ran said carefully.

Unexpectedly, Mo Chi shook his head. “No, absolutely not. You have to have bodyguards. You’re not allowed to attack unless it’s absolutely necessary.”

If he still had to let his wife fight with his enemies after marrying him, then his reputation would be completely ruined.

“Just promise me. If you promise me, I’ll tell you what I did tonight.” Qin Ran’s arrogant expression made Mo Chi even more curious about her whereabouts tonight.

Curiosity killed the cat.

“If you don’t say anything, I’ll take it that you’ve tacitly agreed.” Qin Ran smiled. Without waiting for Mo Chi’s reaction, she continued, “Haven’t I been undergoing military training in school for the past two weeks? I didn’t expect my instructor to be from the Military and Political Affairs Office of Xuanchuan City. He entered our school in plain clothes to catch some enemy spy. He captured me when he saw that I was in good health.”

Mo Chi knew that this was Du Xing, and his subordinates had reported this to him. However, he never expected it to be related to Qin Ran.

“Do you remember when I went to Rui Ci Hospital for a prenatal checkup and then that hospital was attacked by terrorists?”

Mo Chi would never forget that he was the one who led his men into the hospital and met his old rival, the Beautiful Fox, there. “Of course I remember. Their goal that time was the scientific research results in Dr. Wu’s hands. I believe the enemy country hasn’t given up yet.”

That matter had caused a huge commotion, and the people on the streets knew a little about it. After all, Mo Chi was half an insider, so it was normal for him to know some details.

“I think so too. That’s why they think that I’m a spy sent by the enemy country. They thought that I was specially lurking in Q University so that I could approach Dr. Wu in the future and obtain the scientific research results.” Qin Ran deliberately picked up unimportant words. She didn’t reveal the information that the other party asked her to protect Dr. Wu.

Actually, right now, Mo Chi and Qin Ran were treating each other as half-insiders. They spoke the truth to each other, but they hid a portion of it.

Upon hearing Qin Ran’s words, Mo Chi nodded. He was indeed furious. Du Xing was the one who came to Q University in plain clothes. Previously, he had heard from his subordinates that he was considered stable and reliable. Why was he so muddle-headed this time? Although his wife was smart and cute, no matter how he looked at her, she was just a little girl next door. How could Du Xing tell that she could be a spy?

How foolish.
