Chapter 63 -63: Truly a Good Child
The person on the other end of the phone was unaware that their few casual remarks had caused the entire organization’s task load to soar overnight.
“Boss, you’re really heartless, scamming even your fiancé out of money. Was competing for tasks with him your way of dating in the past?”
Qingwu: “…”
“Get lost, I want to see the latest data on Reagent No. 3 by tomorrow morning.”
A piercing scream came from the other end of the phone!
“Boss, just because we interrupted your date, you’re making the brothers stay up all night. That’s too cruel!”
Fearing more experimental data might be added, Tian Tong quickly hung up the phone and blocked his boss’s number.
Pei Jue’s smile grew even wider. A muffled laugh emanated from his chest, particularly alluring.
“So my fiancée likes this kind of date? Then Deep Sea will cooperate more with High Tower in the future, giving us more opportunities to date.”
Like what?
This kind of thing was called a date?
Qingwu glanced at him inexplicably and said calmly, “Why did you place the order?”
“I’m not that generous and don’t want my fiancée treating other men.”
“Your grandpa is also a man.”
Pei Jue: “…”
“Isn’t he? Then next time, I’ll tell Elder Pei you’re saying he’s not a man.”
Pei Jue’s smile was completely stifled by her, a rare embarrassed look appeared on his handsome face. His eyes were tinged with a blush, making his exceptionally attractive face appear even more beautiful.
Qingwu’s lips curved slightly, revealing a satisfied smile!
This man was just petty. As a doctor, why would she care about a patient’s gender? He just wanted to find fault!
“How do you know Tarzan is seeing a man?”
Pei Jue took off his gold-rimmed glasses and handed them to Qingwu, “Wipe them for me, can’t see the road clearly.”
“Even plain glasses need wiping? I think you see better without them.”
“They’re special glasses.”
Qingwu picked them up, adjusted the angle of the lenses, and a thin data board appeared before her eyes, revealing a miniature surveillance device!
This device was a high-priced research item from Beidou Star, sold on the black market. She didn’t expect Pei Jue to have bought it…
All Beidou Star’s data came from her hands. Seeing this surveillance device, Qingwu understood what Pei Jue meant.
“You installed surveillance around Tarzan?”
“Didn’t you do the same? I said, my fiancée and I are always in sync.”
Qingwu was silent for a moment, took out a handkerchief she carried with her, and carefully wiped the lenses clean before handing them back to Pei Jue.
“My people aren’t spying on Tarzan; they’re looking for the director of the Love Orphanage.”
Tarzan had taken the director of the Love Orphanage, and Beidou Star’s people had been tracking them.
Pei Jue liked watching her seriously wipe his glasses like this, the girl under the night slightly lowering her head, her crow-like eyelashes blocking her starry eyes, giving him more time to look at her.
Thinking of this quiet and elegant appearance was due to her wiping his lenses, Pei Jue’s heart softened, feeling warmth he hadn’t felt in a long time.
It was Qingwu’s magic, always making him want to be closer to her…
He put on his glasses and drove the car back towards the city.
“The people I arranged got near Tarzan, and caught along with the Drug King was Tarzan’s brother. He has another brother with a terminal illness. That’s why he’s been frantically searching for Ghost Doctor Chang Yue.”
“Yes, he approached the Drug King seemingly to make money in Hua Country, but he actually wanted the Illusion Heart Grass in the Drug King’s possession. I’ve analyzed the components of Illusion Heart Grass, and it indeed has a medicinal effect on some cancers.”
“So he won’t give up easily. Be careful these days.”
Qingwu nodded. A team constantly followed her, making it difficult for Tarzan’s people to approach her.
“So let me drive you around for now, or else I won’t be at ease.”
Qingwu: “…”
Lately, she had been rotating between accompanying her three brothers, video-calling with Shushan who was filming, and Shaojia who was experimenting. When she had time, she’d go to Qiao Xi Hospital to play chess with the elders. Did she really need him to drive her?
“You haven’t got a driver’s license yet. I’ll be my fiancée’s exclusive driver, how about that?”
Qingwu glanced at him blandly, “If you like being a driver, you could register as a Didi driver and earn some spare cash.”
“Is my fiancée already planning for me? So considerate! Rest assured, your fiancé’s money-making skills aren’t bad; you won’t go hungry in the future. The Chang Yue order we just took is considered your consultation fee, and if Grandpa’s medicine costs anything, just come to me, understood?”
Qingwu: “…”
Is that what she meant?
“If anything dangerous happens, remember to come to me, okay?”
Could she find him in a real emergency?
Pei Jue drove onto a small path, stopped under a dim streetlight, and suddenly leaned in, placing one hand on the car window beside Qingwu, looking at her with overwhelming intensity.
“Qingwu, I know you’ve always been independent and impressive. My fiancée isn’t like the average girl. But you have family now. If you can, I’d hope you’d trust me. Whatever the Shen Family can give you, I can too. Whatever they can’t, I still can.”
His voice carried a deep, mesmerising allure, like a siren softly singing by the shore.
“For instance, I can offer you my embrace and my back.”
Qingwu’s eyes widened slightly, her long eyelashes trembling a bit.
They were both assassins; they knew their backs were only shown to their most trusted partners in life and death!
“So, try to trust me, rely on me, and think of me a little. When you need, let me pick you up, okay?”
His tone carried a hint of hurt, as if accusing her or maybe pleading, making Qingwu’s heart soften immediately.
“Okay, I got it.”
Pei Jue gently patted her head, his hand warm and slightly moist. Only he knew how nervous he was facing Qingwu so closely. If he weren’t afraid of scaring this young girl, he’d have done something more outrageous.
But not yet; she was still too young and might be afraid of him.
Pei Jue didn’t hold back in praising her, “Such a good girl.”

Qiao Xi Hospital, Beijing
In Mrs. Shen’s ward, Zuo Wanjun watched as Mrs. Shen drowsily nodded off and subtly shifted her feet after standing for two hours.
She had been called here early in the morning, and without a word being said, was just left standing!
Whenever Mrs. Shen was in a bad mood, she’d torment her like this, and Zuo Wanjun had somewhat gotten used to it.

“Eldest daughter-in-law, when did you get here? Did I ask you to come?”
Eldest daughter-in-law?
Mrs. Shen had only Shen Dongli as a child, and thus only one daughter-in-law, so where was there an eldest or second?
Zuo Wanjun was a bit puzzled, wondering if Mrs. Shen had come up with some new way to torment her?
“Mom, it was you who called me early this morning wanting porridge from home, so I brought it for you.”
The porridge, placed by Mrs. Shen’s side, emitted a rich rice fragrance, making one’s mouth water just by smelling it.
Mrs. Shen’s expression turned a bit confused, completely forgetting about calling Zuo Wanjun over.
“Oh, hand it over to me.”
Zuo Wanjun held the porridge, preparing to feed Mrs. Shen.
Yet, Mrs. Shen stretched out her hand, suddenly knocking the bowl from Zuo Wanjun’s grasp to the floor!
“Get out! You’re trying to harm me! You poisoned the food; I’m calling the police!”
