1597: A Demure Wife

A Demure Wife

At this moment, Wei Du hated Dan De who had given him such a rotten idea. He waved his hand and said, "Drag him away!"1

After Dan De was taken away, Hu Li was the closest one to Wei Du left.

Only then did he say, "The Shi family asked us to kill Nangong Nuannuan. We can push this matter to the Shi family. Nangong Nuannuan and the people around her aren't kind people. If we offend her like this tonight, she won't let us go easy for sure. So, early tomorrow morning, we'll head to Phoenix Pavilion's headquarters to visit her. At the same time, we'll throw Dan De under the bus and tell her that the attack last night was a one-sided agreement between the Shi family and Dan De. They attacked Nangong Nuannuan behind your back. Last night, because the presidential residence was bombed, you were busy with the matters there. Therefore, when you found out about this, you were very angry and arrested Dan De. Then, you'd execute Dan De in front of her. You're the president of a country after all. If you express your goodwill to Nangong Nuannuan in public like this, she'll be at fault if she still intends to kill you."

Wei Du's eyes lit up. He knew that Hu Li had it in him to come up with a solution.

"That's a good idea!"

"Once Nangong Nuannuan forgives us, we can take the opportunity to talk to her about collaborating with her. If she's unwilling to pay tribute to you, you can say that you're borrowing those resources from her. Once this period is over and you've completely defeated Pang Long, who can dictate whether you return the resources to her or not?"

"Let's do that!"

Instantly, Wei Du no longer felt stifled.

In the headquarters of Phoenix Pavilion, all the weapons had been laid out. Apart from fully armed mercenaries, there were also fighter planes, military-grade helicopters, and missiles. They showed off their strength without bothering to keep a low profile. This attracted the attention of everyone who passed by but intimidate them just enough to stop them from approaching.

The mercenaries were all incomparably excited. Each of them was equipped with a machine gun as they welcomed the arrival of the boss of Imperial Phoenix in their most upright posture.

The two helicopters landed one after the other. Imperial Phoenix's vice presidents, Selina and Dan Qi, jumped off the helicopter first. Everyone's eyes widened as they gathered around to witness their boss' grand entrance.

Soon, a man in a bathrobe appeared with a long-haired woman in his arms.

The woman was also wearing a bathrobe. She nestled herself in the man's embrace like a demure wife and hugged his neck intimately.

When the higher-ups saw the woman's extremely beautiful and enchanting face, they instantly gasped.

The words "Chairman" were stuck in their throats.

After all, no matter what face the chairman used every time she appeared in front of them, she always put on the flashiest appearance.

This cute and lovable little woman was hugging a man like a kitten, and she had gauze wrapped around her feet… Was she really their chairman?

Seeing that the mercenaries did not greet Nuannuan, Selina snapped unhappily, "Are you all mute? Aren't you supposed to greet your boss when you see her?"

Only then did the mercenaries collectively stand at attention and call out grandly, "Welcome, Chairman!"

However, Nangong Nuannuan had no intention of responding to these rough brutes. She hugged Chi Yang with both hands and stared at him without blinking. She was still thinking about how handsome Chi Yang was when he single-handedly intercepted two missiles and how the missiles exploded at the same time.

"Is her room ready?" Chi Yang asked the first person to approach him.

"It's ready. Please follow me."
