aced her on the sofa. Rong Ling leaned over her, kneeling halfway on the sofa, bowing his head, extending a large hand, and gently patted Lin Meng's small face with some force. He asked her in a deep...He thought she had calmed down, tonight at most she would just give him the occasional glare. Who knew this woman would throw such a big bomb at him.
He watched her entwined with another man so intimately, their movements so perfectly coordinated, especially dancing such a wild Samba. The jealousy in his heart flared up, almost bursting out of control.
He had to use all his willpower to resist the urge to charge into the dance floor and drag that brazen little woman out. She dared to dance with men other than him, she was practically asking for trouble! And then she just patted her behind and walked away without even a word. Where did she put him!
This terrible little woman!
He stared at her, at that large expanse of white skin she had exposed again. His eyes burned with fury, almost scorching a hole into it. And then he saw her place her small hand affectionately on Xiao Yi's arm. He was so enraged that he felt like he could just draw his sword and chop off Xiao Yi's arm!
That day, that man really had it easy and was the center of attention!
A cold glint flashed in his eyes. He thought to himself, this score, he would settle it eventually.
She just walked away like that, and he didn't chase after her. He was afraid that if he really caught up to her, he would lose control and carry her onto his shoulders, taking her away. Besides, dammit, he had sacrificed so much tonight. If he still couldn't handle Li Lanqiu, then he might as well shoot himself and end it all!
Suppressing the volatile emotions churning within, he once again donned a mask of cold indifference. This sight brought a wave of relief to Li Lanqiu's eyes. Good, Lin Meng was gone. Now, the game was back in her hands.
Since Lin Meng left, the banquet seemed to have suddenly lost its soul. It felt like something was missing, and it became listless and aimless. Even though the later dance music was still hot and energetic, there were noticeably fewer people dancing after her, and no one dared to dance samba again.
Lin Meng's dance was so ethereal, her soul seemed to merge with the samba rhythm. It was truly unforgettable. Even years later, at similar events, no one could match the elegance she displayed that day. But that is a story for another time.
While Li Lanqiu hoped to replace Lin Meng and become the object of everyone's adoration, it was a complete delusion. The hostess of the banquet, with her queenly demeanor, left in a graceful manner. As a weak third party, how could she possibly carry the same aura as Lin Meng How could she have Lin Meng's abilities! When someone approached her, she either pretended to understand or just giggled foolishly, a ridiculous vase that was not worthy of being looked at twice. With Lin Meng ahead, she should have recognized her own identity and kept a low profile after Lin Meng appeared. Instead, she insisted on clinging to Rong Ling, which already made people look down upon her; after Lin Meng left, she didn't quickly disappear like everyone else but instead put on an arrogant face, which only disgusted everyone.
A few people carried Li Lanqiu away, subtly hinting to Rong Ling with a kind reminder that the one back home was the one truly worthy of his adoration and pampering. Although this woman was his old friend, he wished to introduce her to society, but it had to be done in moderation.
Fang Ling listened silently, without responding. No one knew better than him what Li Lanqiu was truly capable of. How could that woman compare to his wife!
Everything, it's all just a play.
With the end of the feast, the play is also entering countdown!
Feng Ling carried Li Lanqiu back to the small villa she had chosen in the western part of city B for her last stay.
After entering the room, Rong Ling said.
Go ahead!
There is no room for doubt.
Although Li Lanqiu was initially angry and threatened to keep quiet, Rong Ling came back and coaxed her. They danced together again and again until Lin Meng left, ignoring her. Her anger subsided. Besides, she could feel that this man had endured enough and it was time for her to give him an explanation.
"Please have a seat."
She pulled Rong Ling over and sat down on the sofa. She then licked her lips and spoke slowly.
Since that day when I attempted suicide, I believe the trauma triggered a gradual recovery of my memory. Then, I remembered being an agent for the m country and how to contact my former superiors. Knowing you've been troubled by what happened to your uncle, I reached out to them, hoping they could help. But your uncle holds a high position, and the situation is complex; they initially refused.I persisted, advocating for you repeatedly, highlighting your capabilities and excellence. If you were on their side, it would be a valuable asset, and eventually, they were swayed. However, absorbing someone like you into their ranks requires careful consideration, which is why there's this test tonight. You hate how those people treated your uncle, right You despise this country, don't you Then join me, become an agent! What do you say
Rong Ling's face changed slightly.
"You're a spy!" He expressed the astonishment that was due.
Li Lanqiu nodded silently, making no further explanation, but instead enticed.
"Actually, being a spy has many advantages. As long as you agree and sign the confidentiality agreement, I guarantee that your uncle will definitely be able to escape safely in the end. Besides, rest assured that everything about you will be kept confidential. That is to say, everything you have now will not only remain unaffected but because of your identity as a spy, you will have more convenience when doing business in the US in the future. The US government will definitely open doors for you, and even if you invest in other countries, the US government will secretly help you. The strength of the US is evident to all, you don't need me to elaborate on this."
Rong Ling frowned. "What you said... is a bit... unexpected. I didn't think... I didn't..."
He suddenly seemed at a loss for words.
Li Lanqiu smiled slightly. Rong Ling's reaction was perfectly normal, which only meant that he was indeed "clean." With someone like him, they would certainly put in all their effort to win him over.
Instead of pushing him, she gave him time to slowly process what she had said.
After a long while, he frowned and asked.
"Are you serious about what you're saying"
She immediately refused to accept it. "Others have told you all their most secret things, how can you still doubt them Admitting to being a spy, do you think it's funny One slip-up and you'll be dead. They love you, that's why they tell you everything, that's why they're devoted to planning for you."
That coquettish tone sent a chill down Rong Ling's spine. With her abilities, she barely even qualified as an auxiliary agent. How could she possibly be worthy of being sent by the US government to win him over! Was that all the US had to offer The only explanation he could come up with was that the US government must have been temporarily insane when they made this decision!
He didn't know, Li Lanqiu was chosen precisely because she had meticulously planned for this opportunity and, by sheer luck, leveraged her looks to seize it. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been the one picked. However, he should be grateful that she was the one chosen; if someone else had stepped in, Rong Ling would have been far less able to handle things with such apparent ease.
I just didn't expect you to join this.
Li Lanqiu was startled, and she quickly covered it up. "It's just a coincidence. As you know, I often go on world tours, so they found me and I agreed."
Can you be sure they can definitely bring your uncle back safely
"This is definitely the case, we have people who will satisfy you."
Rong Ling was silent for a while, his brows still furrowed.
"This matter is serious, I can't agree easily. I need a 100% guarantee, you have to make them show me something that makes me 100% believe."
"This..." Li Lanqiu bit her lip.
"Furthermore, becoming a spy means treason. That's a serious crime, and it could be fatal at any time. How can I trust that my identity will be kept completely secret! What if it's leaked! Autumn, you know about my current family situation, I have money and status, there is no need for me to risk everything, even my life, for this. So I need guarantees. Without a 100% guarantee that convinces me, based only on what you said, I won't take the risk. I'd rather find another way to save Uncle San!"
Li Lanqiu's heart skipped a beat.
Here she comes, the thing she fears most, and also the top priority of her concern, she's here!
On the surface, considering the fact that winning over Rong Ling would be a great achievement — he is the head of the Rong family, and his uncle is a powerful figure with many influential relatives in government. If he were to be used by them, they would definitely celebrate for three days and three nights with champagne. However, it is precisely because Rong Ling is too outstanding that this could also become the reason he refuses.
Therefore, everything has two sides, advantages and disadvantages.
To be honest, if it weren't for the coincidental timing of this incident with Uncle Three, Rong Ling would have been caught in a trap. And if it weren't for Li Lanqiu, Rong Ling's first love, wanting to return to his side, they wouldn't even dare dream of winning him over. Despite Li Lanqiu's second-rate abilities now, she has received so much support and attention from M-Side. The reason is that Rong Ling himself is a valuable bargaining chip worth risking everything for.
Li Lanqiu also knew this. If Rong Ling refused, then she would be nothing. And as Rong Ling said, being a spy was dangerous. If Rong Ling refused, despite loving her now, there was no guarantee that one day when she grew old and faded, Rong Ling would find her too dangerous and kick her to the curb. Only by getting Rong Ling onto this ship with her, making them tied together like ants on a string, could Rong Ling stay with her through thick and thin. Even if she aged and lost her charm, relying on their connection, she could still hold onto Rong Ling tightly, preventing any young girls from having a chance.
After she confessed to Rong Ling that she was an M country agent, Li Lanqiu only had one path left: she absolutely had to make Rong Ling an M country agent too.
So, she did her best to subdue Rong Ling.
"He told me earlier that you're very capable, so they'll definitely classify your identity as confidential. Then, besides me, only a limited number of high-ranking individuals will know about you. You'll be very safe." Let me know if you need anything else translated!
"Without evidence, I feel uneasy."
Li Lanqiu thought for a moment, then said again.
“Actually, before you, there were also extremely outstanding people who joined our ranks. He was even a high-ranking official in your country, wealthy and powerful. But he wasn't afraid, so what are you afraid of Until now, his identity remains a secret, unsuspected by anyone. Rest assured, I can swear my life on it, your identity will also be kept secret to this extent, even better.”
Rong Ling's heart lit up. After waiting for so long, she finally saw the shadow of a fish. She just waited for it to surface.
Who are you talking about!
Li Lanqiu immediately chuckled. "How would I know Besides, this is top secret! I just know there's such a person."
"Not even a name How can you trust that!"
"This is a top-secret individual. Only a very limited number of people know about them. Rong, you have to trust me."
Silence speaks volumes.
Li Lanqiu complained about her third uncle.
"Now think about it, Uncle Three. If you don't join them, how can they help you"
How do they help
You'll know once you join, won't you
"How can I join something that hasn't even taken shape yet That's impossible. I'm a businessman, and I've been the head of the Rong family for so long, Qiuqiu, you go tell your people, all of it, I need to know their plans. Without enough bait, how can we catch big fish! You just said that person was high-ranking, yet he's so naive, without any interest, just joined you! That's impossible!"
Li Lanqiu's face blushed slightly, it was from shyness!
Underestimated Rong Ling's intelligence, that was her mistake. Too self-righteous, that was also her mistake. After all, it concerns his life and death, so it is normal for him to make such a request.
Okay, so she just spilled all the beans.
"We have people involved in the San Bo case. He can destroy any sensitive information related to San Bo. When the time comes, someone will speak up for San Bo and Rong family will put in some effort, then San Bo will definitely be able to get away safely."
"Who is that person"
"That's a secret, they wouldn't tell me that on top."
This is still just talk, no real action.
Li Lanqiu sighed. "Rong, if you don't join them, how can they possibly work for you for nothing Just trust me, okay I've been in this department for many years and I've always seen that they are people of their word. That's why our team is growing stronger and stronger, with more and more people joining us from all over the world!"
"Qiu Qiu—" Rong Ling suddenly grabbed Li Lanqiu's hand, letting out a long sigh. A trace of vulnerability and instability appeared on his face. "You don't understand, I can't afford to lose! The stakes are too high!"
"Rong..." Li Lanqiu immediately grabbed Rong Ling's hand, solemnly saying, "Trust me."
He shook his head. “I believe you, but I don’t believe them. San Bo's matter is not a small one. I don't quite believe their power would be that great, nor do I believe in any internal people or high officials joining in. So――”
He rubbed his temples as if tired. "I'll go back and think about it carefully. What you told me is really beyond my expectations."
However, his expression didn't seem very moved by her proposal! Li Lanqiu was afraid that Rong Ling would think this way, the passion would fade away, and she would become more and more hesitant and afraid in her heart, so she stopped.
"Let's do it this way," she said hastily, clutching his hand tightly. "I'll apply to have them make some progress first. Once you see it, you'll naturally believe us."
"Of course, that's much better," Rong Ling immediately replied, his expression visibly relaxing.
Li Lanqiu immediately let out a sigh of relief. It seemed that, this move she made, was still the right one.
Smiling, she walked towards Rong Ling and leaned in to kiss him on the face, her hands following suit.
"Why don't you stay here tonight"
With a sweet, syrupy voice, she bit his ear and whispered. One hand, with an air of intimacy, stroked his neck, gliding over his Adam's apple, moving slowly downward.
He shook his head.
"Sorry, I'm not in the mood."
Furrowed brows, as if still troubled by the affairs of the agent.
Li Lanqiu refused to yield. "Rong... Rong..."
She rubbed against him instead, boldly reaching out with one hand to touch his crotch. To this day, she had never slept with him. Before, when she had hinted at it, he had refused, claiming she was too weak. She didn't want to push him then. But now, her body was definitely better.
"Don't..." she cried out stubbornly.
He pushed her back slightly.
"I'm really not in the mood for this!"
So, no matter how Li Lanqiu kneaded and teased, provoking his crotch, there was not a single sign of movement.
It seems like he's really not in the mood.
Li Lanqiu suddenly felt dejected, thinking that she might have been better off sleeping with Rong Ling before revealing anything. At the time, lying naked in bed with a little alcohol would have created the perfect atmosphere. If she had confessed honestly then, perhaps Rong Ling, drunk and confused, would have agreed.
Stupid!
She is annoyed!
How could she not have thought of this just now!
"I'm going back now!"
He pushed her away and stood up.
Li Lanqiu hurriedly scrambled over, like she had no bones at all, her body softening against his.art disappear!Let bygones be bygones!Children need to be coaxed, and they are also easy to coax. To parents, where is there any overnight feud!"Daddy!"The little fellow called out softly, not saying m...
