A fleet of cars sped through City 4.
It was only 11 pm, the time when nightlife in the Inner World was just beginning. The streets were bustling with traffic, yet police cars from the pce Security Management Committee were clearing the way for this convoy.
Pedestrians gave way, speculating where the convoy was headed.
In the middle car, middle-aged woman Qing Yun sat in the back seat, and she said to the secretary in the co-pilot seat:
“Apply for Political Asylum from the Chen Family now, and request them to open City 7’s Air Traffic Control. We need to land there. Also, after we arrive at the Airport, be careful, careful, and careful again…Have the Garrison Troops assembled?! ”
The secretary replied: “The Garrison Troops have assembled and are heading to the Airport to clear a path for you. The Class A Airship at the Airport is also ready and can take off at any time.”
However, as they reached the Airport, the secretary suddenly exclaimed: “Boss, the Chen Family has rejected your Political Asylum request! They replied that they have no intention of intervening in the Qing Family’s internal disputes and asked you to cooperate actively with the Qing Family’s internal audit.
“What?” Qing Yun raised her voice: “I’ve devoted myself wholeheartedly to Chen Yu, and he actually abandons me at this time?!”
“Boss, what do we do now?” the secretary anxiously asked.
“Get on the Airship first. We can’t stay in the Southwest anyway. Go to City 18, and if that doesn’t work, go to City 20. As long as I’m alive, I’m a political bargaining chip!” Qing Yun said.The convoy arrived at the Airport, and the roar of the huge engines drowned out their voices.
Qing Yun, wearing a beige trench coat, quickly walked onto the prepared Airship.
However, before the others could get on, the Airship closed its doors and slowly rose into the air.
Qing Yun was stunned. She looked at Qing Kun, who was sitting leisurely in the cabin, and the Faceless Soldiers beside him.
She narrowed her eyes slightly: “When did you arrive in City 4?!”
“I just arrived a short while ago,” Qing Kun said cheerfully, “I haven’t even had a chance to eat.”
As he spoke, some Faceless Soldiers came out of the cabin, carrying trays: “Boss, the meal is ready.”
Qing Kun smiled: “Thank you.”
The terrifying Faceless Soldiers, who had just prepared a meal for their Boss in the Airship kitchen, held knives, which looked quite strange.
But Qing Kun and the Faceless Soldiers seemed used to it.
Qing Yun said coldly: “Why did you come in person? Aren’t you afraid of dying in this city?”
Qing Kun took a bite of the egg fried rice and said indistinctly: “My son asked me to make sure you don’t escape,
I promised him. To maintain my dignity as a father, I had to come and watch personally. I have to see you caught
before I can rest assured.”
Speaking of this, he waved to the Faceless Soldiers, and their captain immediately understood and brought a glass of water—Boss choked.
Qing Kun wiped his mouth and said: “Also, your son, Qing Wen, always bullied Qing Yi when he was alive, forcing the boy to hand over the Immortal Brooch as Protection money. If the Old Master hadn’t told me not to, I would have killed your son on the spot. Now, although your son is dead, as his father, I have to avenge him. Qing Yun looked down from the window of the cabin and saw a troop quickly surrounding the Airport, while her secretary and entourage were frantically fleeing.
It’s over.
There’s no escape.
“Are you going to secretly execute me?” Qing Yun asked coldly.
“You think too highly of yourself. Do you really think you have any influence? Secretly execute you?” Qing Kun chuckled. “I’m going to arrest you and put you on public trial, letting all the people in the Southwest see how you betrayed so many family interests for a pretty boy. Qing Yun, you shouldn’t have, you absolutely shouldn’t have secretly given the Immortal Brooch to Chen Yu. If Shadow had killed him along with the others back then, there wouldn’t be so much trouble now.”
Qing Yun’s face turned livid: “That old man wants to turn the Qing Family into his own, aren’t you worried?!”
Qing Kun thought for a moment and said: “You should know that my branch originally has the surname Luo, we are the illegitimate children’s branch.
Do you know what our ancestor, Luo Lan, said? Protect the bloodline of our ancestor, Qing Zhen, that’s enough, don’t worry about anything else.
To be honest, the outside world thinks that you people are glamorous, but you’ve never been in touch with the true core of the Qing Family.
The true core of the Qing Family is the direct bloodline left by Qing Zhen and Luo Lan, those two brothers. They are the true Qing Family, the main trunk of this towering Qing Family tree.
As for the other branches, they are just branches that have grown over the long years.”
“Of course, the most important reason is that my son wants to support Qing Chen, it’s that simple,” Qing Kun said.
Qing Yun was stunned: “You actually listen to a little brat’s decision? How old is he?!”
She had once tried to win over Qing Kun because the resources and troops under his command were crucial.
But Qing Kun had always refused her, and his attitude was always bad.
Qing Yun hadn’t understood why, until now she knew that it was because Qing Wen had bullied Qing Yi, and Qing Yi had made the choice for his father!
But Qing Yi is only 14 years old!
How can adults make decisions based on a child’s opinion?
Qing Kun was unhappy: “My son is so smart, what’s wrong with listening to him? Life is a gamble, can’t I gamble on an option that makes my son happy? Forget it, you wouldn’t understand. It serves you right that your son was killed.
Speaking, this rough man actually picked up his phone and made a call: “Hello, son…Caught, caught,
Hahaha, your old man personally took action, is there anyone I can’t catch? You want Chen Yu, I’ll catch him for you too.
Of course, you certainly wouldn’t make such an absurd request of your old man.”
Qing Yun:
She knew that by the time she was caught, the Old Master must have completed all the purge plans, and the Qing Family had been transformed.
Qing Kun stood up, his face turning cold: “Take her into custody and return to City 5, to welcome a new era.”
At the foot of Ginkgo Mountain, after the situation was settled, the guests were allowed to leave.
By the time they left, it was too late to send any messages.
Those who should leave left, those who should disperse dispersed. Everyone left hurriedly, only Li Kerou and her best friend stayed at the foot of the mountain, standing in the chilly spring evening breeze.
She is an ordinary person, so when the cold wind blew, she slightly shrunk her body. This ambitious woman suddenly looked like this,
It seemed that she wasn’t as strong as she seemed, but rather weak and delicate.
Her best friend said beside her: “Let’s go, people can always be seen. It’s too cold tonight, let’s go home first.”
Li Kerou shook her head: “You go back first, I’ll wait. I think differently than you. Some people, you must guard them to see them, missing once may miss a lifetime. It’s the same with opportunities, and it’s the same with life.
If you want to succeed, how can you not endure hardship and not pay the price?”
Her friend sighed: “Then you wait here, I’ll go first.”
Li Kerou looked at the night scene of the Ginkgo Manor. The Mute servants seemed to have received orders and didn’t come to drive her away, but simply accompanied her silently.
After thinking for a moment, she actually started using her phone to learn Sign language.
After all, she will definitely have to interact with the Mute servants frequently in the future. The Mute servants can take care of her when they communicate with her,
using an LCD screen to write on.
But the problem is, after she learns Sign language, the Mute servants will definitely feel her respect.
These close attendants of the Old Master are very important!
When she was learning Sign language on her phone, the Mute servants curiously watched her clumsy gestures, but a scholar is a scholar, and in just a few tens of minutes, she learned basic Sign language, making amazing progress.
The Mute servants secretly marveled…After an unknown amount of time, Li Kerou suddenly saw the Mute servants retreat.
She turned her head and saw Qing Chen walking down the mountain path.
When she saw him coming down, she immediately smiled: “You were particularly amazing tonight.”
Qing Chen shook his head: “It’s not that I’m amazing, it’s that the Old Master on the mountain is too amazing. I didn’t do anything myself.” Li Kerou smiled and said: “After tonight, you’ll be the Federation’s most dazzling Rising star, and you might even overshadow Chen Yu. By the way, where are you staying tonight? I’ll go make your bed.”
Qing Chen: “?? ”
The ambitious woman’s first half sentence was normal, simply a straightforward compliment, but in the second half, it became abnormal.
Before Qing Chen could answer, she continued: “Also, I heard that you only started staying here tonight, so you must have new Towel and Bath towel. I have to go wash them for you, otherwise, the Towel and Bath towel will have Lint, which is not good for your body and Respiratory tract.”
To be honest, Qing Chen was truly amazed.
This ambitious woman said that she would assist him, and she really provided all-round assistance, career and life, covering all aspects.
A top student from a Qing Family public university, a daughter of an intellectual family, was willing to lower herself to help him make his bed, fold his quilts, wash his Towels, and even take care of Yang Yang’s confinement…Amazing.
To be honest, Qing Chen suspects that this is the girl carefully selected by the Old Master on the mountain.
In the first round of blind dates, all kinds of strange people appeared.
In the second round, it was clear that Yang Yang and Qin Yiyi were the main characters, but this girl was arranged to appear before Yang Yang and Qin Yiyi.
After meeting Yang Yang and Qin Yiyi, the blind date could no longer continue.
Seeing the Old Master’s impeccable planning, Qing Chen felt that Li Kerou’s appearance in the second round of blind dates
was definitely carefully arranged.
Moreover, the Old Master mentioned tonight that he would let Li Kerou be his secretary.
It shows that this girl has truly caught the Old Master’s eye.
Qing Chen looked at the girl in the night wind, pondered for a moment, and said: “I understand what you want, and I understand that in this society, if you want to get ahead, you must depend on me. But I want to say that if you are really capable,
then you can do it even without relying on me. Be a good secretary, but you should position yourself as a “Confidential secretary” from the beginning, not a ‘Personal secretary’. You need to learn to handle all kinds of complicated matters,
not to take care of me. Once you do well, you will be sent out to manage projects, and one day you will be able to stand on your own. At that time, you won’t have to live for anyone, you can live for yourself.”
This was Qing Chen’s decision. Li Kerou is indeed a talent, but the times have limited her.
If the old world is doomed to die, a new world will surely come. Such a self-reliant new ambitious woman will surely have a place in the new world, instead of staying by his side.
Qing Chen left, leaving Li Kerou alone.
She looked at Qing Chen’s back and realized that he finally gave her a chance, but also pushed her away.
However, the future described by Qing Chen made her somewhat moved.
“Succeed without relying on anyone?” Li Kerou pondered.
After thinking for a moment, she actually walked towards Qing Chen: “That doesn’t stop me from making your bed.”
Qing Chen: “…Talented.”
Countdown to Ling.
Return.
The world falls into darkness.
The world becomes bright again.
Countdown 168:00:00.
Domestic.
At the foot of the North Slope of Pearl Peak Mount Everest, those mountaineers who planned to summit from the North Slope set up colorful tents.
The starting points for summiting Pearl Peak Mount Everest are the South Slope and the North Slope. The South Slope in Nepal is highly commercialized and has a low summiting difficulty. The North Slope is less commercialized and has a high summiting difficulty.
However, at this time of year, both sides are crowded with mountaineers, forming a unique commercial chain.
It was late at night, and several dilapidated pickup trucks drove into the camp, and several men in Tibetan leather coats jumped off, unloading supplies into the camp.
This is the unmanned zone patrol team at the foot of the mountain. They are originally a team that specializes in fighting poaching, but now that summer has arrived, they also do transportation business.
The unmanned zone patrol team is supported by salaries, but the salaries are meager, so they have to find some extra income to get more oil and water.
Mountaineers are all rich people. As long as the supplies can be transported to the mountain, a pack of potato chips, a pack of crispy biscuits, a bottle of Coke,
can easily earn tens of dollars per unit price. If you can set up a hot pot for them here, it’s not uncommon to earn thousands of dollars.
A team leader of a mountaineering and exploration company saw the patrol team and immediately greeted a middle-aged man with a smile: “Jiacuo,
You’re finally here. I was worried that if you didn’t come, the camp would run out of supplies.”
Jiacuo, the middle-aged man, said honestly: “We encountered heavy snow on the way and were blocked by mountains, so we took a long detour. But we’re leaving soon. We didn’t see any antelopes on the way. They may have encountered poachers.
I asked others from the town to send you supplies, which won’t delay your climb. The team leader was stunned:
“Poachers have sneaked in again?”
“Yes,” Jiacuo nodded, “They follow the migration of the antelopes, so we have to follow them.
They are protected by herdsmen, so it takes some effort to find them. No more words, we’ll leave after unloading the goods. By the way,
do you have any extra diesel in your convoy? Give us two barrels. The people in town will bring you new supplies later.”
The team leader immediately said: “Yes, I’ll go get it for you.”
However, at this moment, everyone suddenly heard a strange sound.
An experienced person made a light sound: “What’s that? It sounds like a snowboard rubbing on the snow. The sound comes from the top of the North Slope.”
The team leader shook his head: “Who would come here to ski? That’s too suicidal.”
But as soon as he finished speaking, everyone turned to see a white figure rushing down on a snowboard, rushing into the camp at an extremely fast speed.
The team leader stared blankly and slowly looked up at the distant roof of the world: “This guy wouldn’t have skied down from Pearl Peak Mount Everest, would he?!”
