Jiang Kui was about to agree when a call came in.
Jiang Kui took out his phone and saw that it was Liu Tanyu. He looked at Zou Man. There was a sparkling tear at the corners of Zou Man’s eyes. Her big and bright eyes were filled with dependence on him. Jiang Kui could not bear to see her like this and reached out to hang up Liu Tanyu’s call.
Zou Man lowered her head to hide her smugness. Her voice was filled with tears. “I thought you didn’t want me anymore. Just like two years ago, when I was sick, you insisted on going to Continent M for a meeting.”
When Zou Man said this, Jiang Kui felt even more guilty.
As the young master of the Jiang family, Jiang Kui enjoyed an extremely high status and encountered many risks. Two years ago, in Continent M, he had met a group of people who wanted to kidnap him. Zou Man had stepped forward and bought him precious time to escape, preventing him from being kidnapped.
That time, Zou Man was injured. In order to complete a project assigned by his father, he did not care about Zou Man on the sick bed and went to Continent M for a meeting.
At this moment, when Zou Man mentioned this, it reminded Jiang Kui of Zou Man’s heroic appearance when she stepped forward to save him. Looking at the fragile her in his arms, Jiang Kui’s heart softened.
“Rest first. I’ll stay here with you, okay?”
“Okay,” Zou Man said as she leaned into Jiang Kui’s arms. “Hubby, it was all my fault in the past. I’ve thought it through. I can’t live without you at all. Let’s live well in the future, okay? That Xiao Yu is very cute. If you like him, bring him home. I’m willing to be his mother.”
Jiang Kui did not expect that a serious illness would make the usually arrogant Zou Man accept an illegitimate child. He nodded. “Okay.”
After many days, when she returned to the Jiang family, Jiang Yun’s eyes flashed with mockery when she saw the delicate child in the living room.
Xiao Yu ran towards Jiang Yun. “Auntie.”
Jiang Yun frowned and looked at Liu Tanyu. “When did Jiang Kui marry you?”
How could a child born to a woman who had never even married in have the right to call me aunt??
Liu Tanyu stood up, the smile on her face unchanged. She looked at Xiao Yu. “Xiao Yu, call her Sister.”
Xiao Yu was very obedient. “Hello, Sister.”
Jiang Yun looked at Liu Tanyu in a different light.?This woman had a tough personality. No wonder a woman like Zou Man could be played by Liu Tanyu like this.?
Jiang Yun’s gaze swept across Liu Tanyu’s face. In the end, she did not say anything and turned to leave.
The more chaotic the Jiang family was, the better. She liked to see the Jiang family in chaos. This was quite good.
After leaving the Jiang family, Jiang Yun made a call. “Have you found out?”
“No, we checked the internal list and there’s no one called Xia Yu. Since you’re sure that he’s a special agent, it’s very likely that he participated in a national secret operation, so we can’t find any traces.”
“Okay, I understand.” A hint of regret flashed across Jiang Yun’s eyes.
Looking at the horizon in the distance, Jiang Yun was a little confused. For so many days, she had been trying to find Xia Yu, but she had nothing.
On the vast sea, the huge ship broke through the waves in the sea. White waves were pushed to both sides, waking up the leisurely dolphins not far away.
“Xia Yu, you’re already like this. Are you still unwilling to go back?” His teammate brought a bottle of water over and handed it to Xia Yu.
Xia Yu’s head and arm were wrapped in bandages, but his expression was very firm. “No, when I came back, I said that I would never return to China unless I finished what I was doing here.”
“Sigh, young man, why are you so stubborn?” His teammate looked helpless. “Isn’t that under normal circumstances? You’re already so injured, why do you still want to stay here?”
Xia Yu was silent. His exquisite face seemed to have grown up. The smooth outline had disappeared and he had a strong arc. His eyebrows were also stable.
His teammate stopped persuading him and could only unscrew the lid and bring the bottle to Xia Yu’s mouth. “Come, take a sip. This is the wine I secretly hid. Don’t let the captain discover it. Seeing that you’re injured, I’ll take it out for you to taste.”
Xia Yu lowered his head and drank a large mouthful.
“…” Looking at the half-empty wine bottle, his teammate’s heart ached and he felt helpless. “Brother, this is wine, not water. If you get drunk later, I’m afraid I’ll be thrown into the sea by Captain to feed the sharks.”
After taking a big gulp of wine, Xia Yu felt panic in his throat. However, he liked the feeling of being stimulated by alcohol. He wanted to take another sip, but his teammate had already run far away with the bottle.
Looking at Xia Yu’s deep expression, his teammate hugged the bottle and retreated while shaking his head.?Xia Yu was so young, but he probably had many things hidden in his heart.?

Ever since the Ning Yuan Fund was established, countless projects had been established to cooperate with the officials and complete the help of the poor people in poor areas.
Among the many projects, Xia Wanyuan valued the southwest the most.
The Northwest region was dedicated to environmental protection. The sand had become an oasis.
In the southwest, through the introduction of education and employment, the D-grade trade there was reduced.
However, although this matter was simple, it was as hard as ascending to the sky.
Further south in the southwest was an unregulated hollow area. Countless black trade grew from here. Those local groups who had already established a huge interest belt here did not allow any outsiders to break the balance here.
What those factories and profitable businesses that had been established in the mountains needed was labor that was like grass.
And the grass-like labor usually came from poor families.
Only people who were poor and had no education were the easiest to brainwash and control, becoming powerless puppets.
And the interference of the Ning Yuan Foundation and the officials happened to touch the reverse scale of these interests.
Set up a school? Burn every one they set up.
Poverty alleviation? The supplies that the people had just sent were robbed.
As for the various support organizations that had been established, they were destroyed by some local forces before the foundation could be built.
If it were those charity organizations in the past, they might have thought of retreating and leave after throwing some money and resources.
However, in the face of such difficulties, not only did the Ning Yuan Foundation not retreat, but they also joined forces with the officials and forcefully built schools in those uninhabited fields, fluttering square flags on the land filled with black smoke.
Such a domineering approach naturally caused a lot of controversy.
Countless news set off from the southwest and flew to all over the world.
