Wen Shan was stunned.
Nalan Chunbo had shut the screaming girl out of the house and finally felt at peace.
Xiao Yaojing walked out of the kitchen and looked at Nalan Chunbo going into the guest room, then at Wen Shan who had been locked out of the house.
See, she told her that they would quarrel if not separated.
“What brings you here, Mr. Nalan? Where is Yezi?” Xiao Yaojing decided to let Wen Shan stay outside for a while while she asked Nalan Chunbo about the important things.
“Weiwei is fine. She is safe now,” said Nalan Chunbo without telling her any more about it. “Can you give me the compiled data of Gu International’s stock market for the past two days?”
Xiao Yaojing nodded and asked Nalan Chunbo if he needed to dress his wounds.
“Never mind.”
Xiao Yaojing listened to this boring man and looked in the direction of the woman who hadn’t given up knocking the door. Was Wen Shan blind? What was so good about this man?
Xiao Yaojing chuckled to herself and opened the door for Wen Shan.
Wen Shan entered the house excitedly the moment the door was opened and the first thing she did was ask Xiao Yaojing for Nalan Chunbo.
Xiao Yaojing slammed the door closed and gestured in the direction of the living room with her chin. “Your Papa Nalan is taking a bath. Go join him.”
“How could I?! That would be so shameless,” said Wen Shan while she looked in the direction of the living room.
Not realizing that she actually cares about her image, Xiao Yaojing didn’t know what to say.
Xiao Yaojing didn’t want to discuss Nalan Chunbo with Wen Shan anymore and went to the study to prepare the data that Nalan Chunbo had asked for.
Wen Shan continued to look at the living room with a sparkle in her eyes. Her Papa Nalan was so attractive even when he looked sloppy!
“Speaking from experience, Wen Shan, you shouldn’t become too obsessed with a guy or you will be the one getting hurt in the end,” Xiao Yaojing said and raised her brows, obviously hinting at something.
She used to be this obsessed about Lu Qichuan, but Lu Qichuan had had his eyes on Ye Yuwei and ended up having a child with a woman that was neither of them.
Wen Shan paused for a moment to digest what Xiao Yaojing had said. She looked at Xiao Yaojing who had just entered the study and then in the direction of the living room. Papa Nalan was more of an idol than a husband to her, so it was different from how Xiao Yaojing felt towards Lu Qichuan.
That’s right, it was different.
Meanwhile, at the camp, both Gu Juexi and Ye Yuwei were still unconscious.
Yu Jiangqing had just gotten back from where the Bai family’s fortress used to be and let the army doctor treat his wound while he reported to the old captain.
“What happened to Gu Juexi? Did he not plan his exit well? Don’t tell me that some explosives could injure him so badly,” the old captain frowned, obviously having heard about Gu Juexi’s condition.
“Boss has had his right hand injured last time. It was my fault for neglecting that detail. He didn’t have enough strength to ignite the explosives and miscalculated one second to leave the place.”
That one second had been enough to hold Gu Juexi back and he had been thrown out of the third floor of the fortress and buried in the ruins.
Yu Jiangqing blamed himself for Gu Juexi’s injuries. None of this would have happened if he had insisted on igniting the explosives himself.
“Looks like he did it deliberately for me,” said the old captain and tossed some badges at Yu Jiangqing.
Yu Jiangqing looked down at the badges.
Major general.
Those were the badges for a major general.
