“Yesterday, I met with Captain Hao and the others. I also met with a new informant. Sha Ying has also been transferred back to Jindo City. From now on, I will be in charge of Xiang City.” Jiang Yao proudly shook her head. Then, she sat on the chair and took two bites of Lu Xingzhi’s fried noodles. She looked like she was enjoying herself as she said, “Your culinary skills are getting better.”
Lu Xingzhi felt his heart ache when he saw her enjoying a bowl of fried noodles without any good ingredients. “Are you having trouble eating in Xiang City? I should not have let you go to Xiang City in the first place. You’ve lost weight in just a few days.”
While Jiang Yao was eating the noodles, Lu Xingzhi sat beside her and accompanied her. His eyes were glued to Jiang Yao’s movements. When he saw the soy sauce on her lips, he immediately bent down and kissed her. Then, he continued to look at her.
“Sit over there.” Jiang Yao’s head was almost buried in the bowl of noodles. She could not stand that guy’s infatuated gaze.
“No.” Lu Xingzhi rejected her.
Jiang Yao was left with no choice but to roll her eyes at Lu Xingzhi. Then, she started to talk to him. “Have you learned anything in the past few days by Brother Jing’s side?”
“Yes.” Lu Xingzhi nodded. “Brother Jing and Ah Da have a very good relations.h.i.+p. They seem to be close brothers.”
“It’s hard to imagine.” Jiang Yao was speechless. She thought that the two of them were also compet.i.tors.
Lu Xingzhi said, “There’s another piece of news. There should be another person who has the same powers as Brother Jing and Ah Da in the group. I guessed it when I overheard Brother Jing and Ah Da talking on the phone. Both of them seemed afraid of that person.”
Jiang Yao frowned, “But the information did not mention that person. All the information from the informants did not mention the existence of that person. There are still people above Brother Jing and Ah Da, but none of our informants have any relevant information.”
“That person seems to have joined the group not too long ago. From Brother Jing’s words, it seems that that person favors the Boss that Brother Jing and Ah Da mentioned, so the Boss especially values him. Brother Jing and Ah Da don’t see the Boss often, but that person seems to always be by the Boss’ side.”
Jiang Yao said, “Brother Ding doesn’t seem to know about that person’s existence either. He’s really mysterious.”
“Even though that person has the same powers as Brother Jing and Ah Da, Brother Jing and Ah Da have to support him because they’re closer to the boss. Although Brother Ding is considered powerful in Shu City, he’s not the core figure. That person is a new member. It’s not strange that Brother Ding doesn’t know about them.” Lu Xingzhi patted Jiang Yao’s head. “I’ll try my best to find out the ident.i.ty of that person. All you need to know is that there’s such a mysterious person.”
He wanted Jiang Yao to be more vigilant.
As the two of them were talking, Lu Xingzhi watched as Jiang Yao finished more than half of the bowl of noodles. Jiang Yao pushed the remaining half of the bowl and chopsticks toward him. Then, she touched her stomach and burped. She was too lazy to speak, so she let Lu Xingzhi finish the rest.
It was rare to see Jiang Yao so sluggish. Lu Xingzhi teased her and reached out to touch her slightly bulging stomach. He smiled and said, “Do you want me to rub it for you? Is the child mischievous in your stomach? ”
The corner of Jiang Yao’s mouth twitched. She raised her foot and kicked his leg. She muttered, “Whose child is this? I can’t eat anymore. You eat the rest.. Don’t waste it.”
