My Wife, The Ice Queen President

Chapter 97: He Mengji Returns_1
“You’re right, that’s just how I pursue life,” Ye Xiong pulled out his phone, pretending to make a call, and asked with a smirk, “Seven Days or Home Inn, I’m going to book a room.”

Luo Weiwei suddenly fell silent, staring at him intently. At first, Ye Xiong didn’t think much of it, but after two minutes, Luo Weiwei was still glaring at him, and it was frightening to say the least.

“Stop glaring like some shrew, it’s not cute at all. Fine, I won’t go, happy now?” Ye Xiong retreated in defeat.

“Asshole.”

Only then did Luo Weiwei’s expression soften as she took out a thick file from her person and placed it on the table: “I came to you for serious business, take a look at these documents first.”

Ye Xiong took the documents, flipped through them briefly, then placed them on the table.

“Finished?”

Ye Xiong nodded.

“Notice anything?” Luo Weiwei quickly asked.

“They’re all special children,” Ye Xiong said blandly.

Luo Weiwei looked at him as if she’d seen a ghost, finding it hard to imagine how, in just a few short minutes, reading at lightning speed, he could pinpoint the commonality within the thick stack of documents.

“Impossible, it took me days to figure out this connection,” Luo Weiwei exclaimed.

“You’ve got big breasts, naturally you’re brainless.”

“Say that again if you dare.”

“Whether I dare or not, why don’t you test it out? Let me plant a little sperm in you and see if you can sprout a tooth in your belly next month and conceive a life,” Ye Xiong said, his vulgarity unleashed.

“I am talking serious business with you, can you not be serious for once, put away this ruffian façade,” Luo Weiwei said, standing up in anger.

“I’m not a cop, and the police aren’t offering me any reward for solving cases for you. You promised to go to the hotel with me, then you backed out. Tell me, what’s my hard work for?” Ye Xiong said.

“To be at peace with yourself, to have a clear conscience,” Luo Weiwei glared at him, seething, “You clearly have the ability to save people, to help families shattered by crime, why won’t you help?”

“Good guys don’t live long, misfortune lives for a thousand years. This case isn’t so simple, I’m afraid if I keep investigating, I’ll end up dead,” Ye Xiong muttered.

“Weiwei, let me give you some advice: drop this case. Those two monsters we saw last night weren’t the tip of the iceberg. This kind of case is not something you can handle,” said Ye Xiong.

“Do you know something about this case?” Luo Wei pressed him.

Ye Xiong had always suspected that the child kidnapping case was related to Gene Warrior research, and after last night’s encounter, he was even more convinced.

If his guess was correct, these children were being kidnapped to be used as lab rats.

Gene Warrior research required a massive amount of test subjects, and children in their growth stage were the most suitable candidates.

If it wasn’t for the connection to Gene Warriors, with Phoenix and Vermilion Bird’s strength, they would have solved the case a long time ago instead of waiting until today.

Last night’s operation was hardly a case-cracking success; they merely killed some small fry and didn’t even catch a glimpse of the mastermind, only temporarily rescuing a portion of the children.

What worried Ye Xiong the most was that person wrapped in a black robe he had encountered unintentionally before, who had been able to take a full-powered palm strike from him while using Inner Strength and walk away unharmed. That level of strength was something even Vermilion Bird might not be able to achieve.

That was her under normal circumstances. If that person was a Gene Warrior, transformed into battle mode, he had no confidence in winning at all.

Moreover, Ye Xiong had a nagging feeling that the missing children were definitively connected to the Gene Warriors – and to that Black-Robed Person.

“Coward,” Luo Weiwei spat.

“Fine, just consider me a coward,” Ye Xiong said with a smile, offering no rebuttal.

Luo Weiwei looked quietly at Ye Xiong, recalling the events of the previous night.

In such a situation, facing such powerful monsters, ordinary people wouldn’t even have the courage to confront them.

But Ye Xiong had done so. With his own power, he confronted two monsters, allowing her and a group of children to escape.

If he’s a coward, then there are no brave people left in this world.

Suddenly, Luo Weiwei realized that many times, he was quite admirable.

That is, if one could overlook his shameless, lecherous nature.

“How can you tell that all those children are special?” Luo Weiwei couldn’t help but ask.

Gene Warriors represent the most formidable biochemical research to date, and naturally, the subjects used for experiments are children with the finest qualities.

Of course, Ye Chen would never tell Luo Weiwei this.

The less she knew about Gene Warriors, the better.

“Beauty, time to pay up,” Ye Xiong called out.

Xiao Qiao emerged from the kitchen, her face sullen, showing no goodwill toward Ye Xiong. However, when her gaze fell on Luo Weiwei’s face, she was utterly surprised.

She couldn’t believe that a scoundrel like him would have such a beautiful girlfriend by his side, and moreover, one who appeared to be an esteemed policewoman.

It truly was a fresh flower planted in cow dung.

“Hand over the money, you think keeping me is free?” Ye Xiong shouted at Luo Weiwei

Luo Weiwei, already used to his shamelessness, pulled out a twenty-yuan note and handed it to Xiao Qiao.

Xiao Qiao was speechless. This policewoman had no taste at all, actually maintaining such a man. She must be blind.

After giving change, she dashed back to the kitchen, not wanting to see Ye Xiong’s annoyingly handsome face for another moment.

“Where are you heading now?” Luo Weiwei asked.

Ye Xiong didn’t know where to go. He had two jobs hanging on him, one with his wife’s company and the other with Sister Hua. Both were hands-off roles; he could go or not go just as well.

However, he hadn’t seen Yang Xinyi for a few days, and suddenly, he found himself missing his Ice Mountain CEO wife.

“I’m going to check on Xinyi Group first. Want a ride on my way there?” Ye Xiong asked.

“Don’t even think about it.”

“I promise, I won’t hold your waist while we’re in the car.”

“Get lost!”

After cursing, Luo Weiwei sped off, leaving behind a trail of exhaust.

Damn, after busting my ass all night to fight for you, nearly losing my life, and this is what I earn—a bowl of Guilin rice noodles!

Just six yuan.

Do I have it easy?

Just as Ye Xiong was about to hail a taxi, he saw Luo Weiwei return abruptly, thinking she had had a change of heart and decided to take him to the company. But Luo Weiwei’s expression was very serious, as if she had encountered some major trouble.

“It’s not good,” Luo Weiwei parked her car beside Ye Xiong, her expression grave as she spoke, “I just received a notification from the city—He Mengji is back in the country and has already arrived in Jiangnan City.”

“Who is He Mengji?” Ye Xiong asked curiously.

Luo Weiwei seemed quite apprehensive.

To know, this lady feared neither heaven nor hell. Even last night when they encountered those two Gene Warriors, she hadn’t shown such urgency on her face.

“He Mengji is He Haodong’s sister. Not many people in the country know about her, but she’s very famous in the Middle East. She has a nickname, Huaxia Think Tank, a woman who became rich through wars. The primary reason He Haodong has been untouched in Jiangnan City is not because people are afraid of him, but because of the woman behind him.”

“It’s just a woman, what’s so remarkable about that?” Ye Xiong sneered.

“Don’t underestimate her. A woman who can command a piece of the landscape in the chaotic, war-torn areas is definitely not simple. She has countless brave warriors under her command, all desperate characters. Don’t be careless.”

“Why don’t you arrest her then?”

“She hasn’t committed any crimes in Huaxia Country, and we can’t find any criminal evidence against her. Anyway, you must be careful when you encounter her,” Luo Weiwei said seriously.

Right at that time, Ye Xiong’s phone rang. On the other end, a strange female voice said, “Mr. Ye Xiong, I have just returned to Jiangnan City and haven’t had the chance to visit. I’m sending you a gift. It’s in your wife’s office. You have half an hour…”

“Who are you?” Ye Xiong asked coldly.

There was no response on the other end of the phone; it just hung up.
