Chapter 1231: Stirring Up Trouble
s.h.i.+ Maocheng smiled and said, “Lieutenant General Chi and your fiancée are a match made in heaven. I’m sure that your wedding will be a grand event that will take both countries by storm.”
Although the president knew that the Nangong family had reunited with their granddaughter, he had no idea that Nangong Nuannuan was Chi Yang’s fiancée. Neither was he aware of her other ident.i.ty.
After all, the president understood that as long as this fiancée was not someone with a questionably horrifying background, even if she was a girl from an ordinary family, Old Master Chi would give them his blessings as long as Chi Yang liked her. However, he did not expect the s.h.i.+ family to say that Chi Yang’s fiancée was a perfect match with Chi Yang in every aspect.
This piqued the president’s interest.
“Oh? Which family is she from? You’re close to Ning Wenhao. Don’t tell me she’s from the Ning family?”
s.h.i.+ Maocheng interjected, “She’s not from our country. I heard that Lieutenant General Chi’s fiancée is the daughter of the Duke of Luntan. The royal family of Luntan will be joining hands with the captain of our Eagle Special Forces in matrimony—this will probably become a modern fairy tale across the two countries! President, don’t you know that Duke Eton of Luntan visited Camino last time just to see Lieutenant General Chi? Duke Eton even gave Lieutenant General Chi a bow as his future father-in-law. He asked Lieutenant General Chi to take good care of his daughter in the future! Therefore, Lieutenant General Chi’s marriage will be a grand event that resonates across the two countries.”
Originally, the marriage between the daughter of the Duke of Luntan and a military officer of Camino was a wonderful story in itself. However, who would have guessed Chi Yang’s special ident.i.ty?
How many military talents had the Chi family brought up over the past three generations before their military strength could spread all over Camino? Now, anyone powerful among these people was already the commanding officers in their military bases. Meanwhile, even if they were mediocre talents, they were formed the backbone of various military bases. In addition, Chi Yang himself was also the commander of the most mysterious special forces in Camino. Therefore, it was not an exaggeration to say that he held a lot of power. Such a person would be marrying a foreign lady, and she was a member of the royalty overseas?
Although it sounded like s.h.i.+ Maocheng had nothing but praises for Chi Yang and his words were seeping with envy, the “Luntanese royal family” and “Camino’s most mysterious special forces” that he emphasized would still pierce into the president’s heart like thorns.
Sure enough, after saying this, the expression on the president’s face froze.
Nangong Shu broke into a small grin. “Director s.h.i.+, you really know how to pick a fight. Since you’ve seen the videos online and know that Chi Yang’s fiancée is the princess under the Duke of Luntan’s care, why didn’t you also inform the president that said lady is the long-lost princess of the Nangong family?”
The president’s frozen expression immediately relaxed when he heard Nangong Shu’s words. He even gave s.h.i.+ Maocheng a meaningful look.
s.h.i.+ Maocheng depended on the president to get to where he was today. Everything he had, along with everything the s.h.i.+ family had, was because the president favored the s.h.i.+ family.
If the president thought that he was stirring up trouble, that would be bad.
Therefore, after a brief pause, s.h.i.+ Maocheng pretended to be surprised and looked at Nangong Mo. “Commander-in-chief Nangong, that can’t be true, right?”
Nangong Shu was nothing short of a wily old fox. There was not a hint of anger on his face at all as he smiled and answered, “Whether it’s true or otherwise, I’m sure Director s.h.i.+ couldn’t have been more sure about that.”
Naturally, s.h.i.+ Maocheng was infuriated after getting jabbed by this subtle nail. However, at this moment, he cleverly continued to play dumb. “I’m innocent, I really don’t know! However, if Lieutenant General Chi’s fiancée is the long-lost daughter of the Nangong family, then what a strong alliance you’ll be forming there!”
