had been suppressing towards Rong Ling erupting. "I only called him 'Rong Shao' out of respect for you! In this J City, who does Rong Ling think he is!"Xi Lan's face sank suddenly. "That's because yo...Li Lanqiu's identity, after she finally got into his computer, could be basically confirmed. His identity was special, and for his own computer, the security level he set up was naturally very high. Moreover, he had a brother who was a computer whiz named Chen Zhi, who set up some small mechanisms that others didn't know about but were particularly useful for their own people. For Chen Zhi, this wasn't difficult at all.
As soon as the computer in his study was turned on, his phone sensed it. He didn't take any action, letting all his subordinates continue doing what they were supposed to do. He just wanted to probe Li Lanqiu's bottom line. In fact, he intentionally made the study look like a forbidden place, just to mislead others. All his information related to his identity was actually stored in another place in the villa, a place that was basically impossible for people to notice. This way, he could maximize his protection.
A wily rabbit has three burrows, so how could he, with his cunning, not have prepared several more for himself! And perhaps a few more smokescreens!
It's human nature to assume that a study, an office space, must hold something important. Especially since he always enters and exits with such secrecy, and spends most of his time there at home. Li Lanqiu would approach it, feeling emotionally resistant, but logically she had already guessed. What she needed to confirm was what Li Lanqiu truly wanted. Entering his study to steal information could only mean two things: either stealing commercial secrets or something related to his secret identity.
He tested it and discovered that Li Lanqiu skipped right over the business data he had intentionally hidden on his computer. It wasn't very obvious, but someone determined could easily find it. Any typical corporate spy would be tempted by this classified information, exactly what a spy needs. As soon as that file was moved, he would immediately sense it. He hoped Li Lanqiu would go for those files, but she didn't. In the end, she went straight to a folder that looked vaguely related to his secret identity, filled with seemingly random code!
At this point, Li Lanqiu's identity was established!
He hadn't expected that because of his special indulgence towards Li Lanqiu, he didn't alarm anyone, but instead, caused Lin Meng, who was returning home, to run into her. If it weren't for Lin Meng's quick wit, she would have been killed by Li Lanqiu's hands. After all, those who mix around in the underworld, without a certain level of killing ability, how can they possibly survive!
So, Lin Meng said she almost got strangled to death by Li Lanqiu, and he believed it!
Even though taking Lin Meng's time to return home into account, it wasn't impossible that she had tampered with the computer; even though Li Lanqiu presented a logical and reasonable explanation for the incident, and her injuries were far more serious than Lin Meng's, people instinctively tended to sympathize with her. However, he knew deep down what kind of woman he chose to be with, and he would always believe in her, no matter when, where, or under what circumstances. Therefore, from the very beginning, he directly suspected Li Lanqiu, scrutinizing the loopholes in her account of events.
I specifically asked her to give me a general overview of the event first, just to get a better understanding of the situation at the time. Little did she know, she spoke too fluently, which actually became a weakness. It was almost as if she had rehearsed it beforehand. Because a normal person recalling past events should pause and reflect, confirming whether things happened that way, and checking if there are any missing details.
Even such basic common sense is unknown, what a failure of an agent!
Moreover, her swift thinking about fingerprints and insistent demand for a fingerprint check were both arrogant and confident, further solidifying our suspicions about her identity. The most basic rule in being a special agent is to never leave your fingerprints behind. She did well on that front, but unfortunately, her logic always falls short of her abilities.
He regretted that after many years, she chose such a profession and stood on the opposite side of him.
Since she made the choice before him, why should he bother with sentiment
Let her be for now, give her face. It's because of her status and her value that we can use. We need to find out from her who the traitor on our side is. This involves his secret identity, how could he possibly let Mengmeng get involved!
This is against the rules!
Mumen, if he wants to participate, can only wait until the organization has thoroughly exploited Li Lanqiu's value before acting as an individual. This way, she can be included. However, this will likely take some time. His woman sometimes has a stubborn temper and loves to pick fights, so she probably won't be able to wait that long. Besides, stopping her like this isn't really helping because this little woman seems very jealous and might start overthinking things later.
He furrowed his brows quickly, but he still agreed to her.
"Okay."
Because I really don't want to see her suffer in silence!
Everything is possible with human effort, he always comes up with a good solution.
She then burst into a smile, turned her face towards him, and leaned closer, urging him on.
"Take the medicine!"
Her voice was soft and sweet, yet it also carried a queenly air of arrogance!
She's back!
His heart suddenly felt light, and he realized that he had missed this version of her so much — the charming, alluring one who commanded him, depended on him.
He immediately ducked away from everyone and sent a message after putting the medicine on her.
"Lee Lanqiu is basically confirmed, keep an eye on her!"
After a series of exchanges, a message suddenly came from there --
Actually, your wife is also a suspect. She stayed in the United States for four years and then went straight to you. No one can be sure what she experienced during that time. You need to be careful with her!
Rong Ling's eyelids jumped violently, anger flaring up. He directly typed a string of command symbols into his phone and roared at it.
"This joke is terrible! I trust my wife!"
Tell me, and I will shut down all running programs!
On the other end, a man with somewhat white hair but piercing eyes like an eagle and a body straight as a steel knife seemed incongruous to his cold and majestic image. He raised his hand, touching his nose, muttering to himself.
It's just a reasonable analysis, why is he so angry!
To dare to just talk to him casually, hmph, it's against the rules!
Deduction!
Moreover, under normal circumstances, it is inappropriate to directly cut off contact with superiors.
Another point deducted!
However, the check still needs to be done. Rong Ling is his most outstanding general and also the nation's best bodyguard. So for anyone appearing around him, it's crucial to ensure they are 100% clean!
Two little ones who were going to surprise their mother at her home, ended up being surprised themselves. They turned back halfway and when they rushed back to the master bedroom, the two little ones had already red eyes, holding back tears. The moment they saw Lin Meng, the tears finally burst out.
Tears are the easiest to shed in front of the people who care about you most.
Two little ones who had been holding back their tears, could no longer contain them at this moment.
"Mommy, woo woo, it's Youyou's fault." The little one cried, rushing over and jumping onto the bed, pouncing on Lin Meng. While sobbing, her rosy lips opened and closed.
"If Youyou wouldn't leave home, if Youyou wouldn't think of surprising Mommy, Li Lanqiu would be too bad, too bad, oh..."
The little boy cried like a child. Because he saw the finger marks on his mother's neck, even though they were medicated, the swollen areas were still swollen, and the bluish areas were still bluish, looking very scary. Looking at it, the little boy felt a pang in his heart, then he was terrified out of his wits.
If mommy was gone…
His face turned pale, he couldn't even imagine it!
Although Lin Meng had been in danger before, the little fellow wasn't by her side. They were a distance away, and although he vaguely heard about the danger, since he hadn't seen it with his own eyes and Lin Meng had returned unharmed, the little fellow didn't have much of an experience. However, this time, the incident happened so close. It occurred just after he and Haohao had walked out not long ago, right in their own house, and it was someone they knew who had done it! Plus, Lin Meng clearly still bore the marks of that terrifying event on her body!
The little boy looked, tears welling up in his eyes, but his innocent heart, instead of becoming more vulnerable, grew stronger and colder. The desire to become strong had never been as intense as it was at this moment. He yearned to grow up fast, to surpass his father immediately, to have his own followers, so that he could protect his mother and create the safest environment for her.
"Mommy, boo hoo..."
The little guy was crying with tears streaming down his face, his eyes half-closed. Little Haohuo also crawled to Lin Meng's side, grabbed her arm, hugged her tightly, and cried so hard he could barely breathe. The sudden outburst of the two children left Lin Meng at a loss for words. No matter how she tried to comfort them, she couldn't calm them down. It wasn't until Rong Ling spoke to her later that...
"Let the two little ones cry it out, they're probably scared. Crying might actually make them feel better!"
Lin Meng's heart ached. As a mother, it pained her to see her two children so heartbroken because of her. She felt like a failure.
"Okay, okay, Mommy's here, here..."
As precious as jewels, she gently held the two little ones in her arms, soothing them with comforting words. The two children cried fiercely, but as Ru Rongling had said, after they had vented their emotions, the two little adults seemed a bit embarrassed and quickly wiped their tears with their tiny hands, snuggling into her embrace and sweetly calling out "Mommy," to which Lin Meng responded each time.
"Mommy…"
"Hmm."
"Mommy..."
"...Here"
"Mommy..."
"Good girl..."
"Mommy..."
"Hmm..."
……
Two little guys called out almost a hundred times before they were finally satisfied, and they finally climbed out of her arms, kneeling on one knee, their small hands resting on her shoulders, carefully checking the wounds on her neck.
"No need to look any further, Mommy's great."
Lin Meng had already seen her own reflection in the mirror, and looking at it was truly frightening. She was an adult and found it scary, let alone two little children. Therefore, she didn't want this image to be etched into their hearts.
The little boy shook his head, though, not daring to touch her with his hand. He only leaned in with his mouth against her neck.
"Youyou told Mommy 'hū hū' and the pain went away."
"Hao Hao wants to, too."
Two little kids puffed out their cheeks and huffed together. The faint warmth blew on her neck, a little itchy. At first, she endured the urge to laugh, then she couldn't help but smile, and finally, she giggled.
"I can't take it anymore, it's so itchy..."
Just as she was acting like she had shed all her worries, the little boy spoke up, his voice unusually firm.
"Mommy, Youyou is going to get revenge for you!"he gathered her strength and charged outward, intending to slip through the gap between the two men. But one of the men moved his leg slightly, shifting sideways, precisely blocking her path. The inte...
