My Wife, The Ice Queen President

Chapter 266: Chapter 0266 Embark_1

Luo Weiwei took a seat in the passenger’s seat, fastened her seat belt, and said, “I thought after you left me, you had completely forgotten about me!”

Ye Xiong’s face went dark with embarrassment.

Hearing the anger in her voice, he hurriedly explained, “After I had a narrow escape, I went to Miaojiang. After Miaojiang, I visited the provincial capital. I only stayed in Jiangnan City for a very short time.”

Luo Weiwei knew his situation; she was just grumbling and didn’t really blame him.

She’d known all along that there was no future between them. Getting involved with him had been her choice, and she didn’t regret it one bit.

Driving to a restaurant, they found a private room and ordered dishes.

“It’s been a while, how have you been?” Ye Xiong asked.

“Much more relaxed than before, thanks to your help. I wouldn’t have been promoted so quickly if it weren’t for you,” Luo Weiwei replied.

It wasn’t just lip service. Ever since Ye Xiong had taken down Skeleton, the Beast Organization’s operatives in Jiangnan City had vanished overnight. The past two months could be said to be the most stable period the city had seen in years.

Although many police officers had made the ultimate sacrifice in the major clash with the Beast Organization, the police had ultimately emerged victorious, successfully rescuing dozens of children.

This counterattack held significant meaning.

The other cities in Guangnan Province also suffered attacks from the Beast Organization, but Jiangnan City performed the best. After the big battle, heroes needed to step forward, and naturally, Luo Weiwei became one of them. She received first-class honors and was promoted to the captain of the Jiangnan City Criminal Police Squad, making her the youngest and first female captain in the history of the city.

Luo Weiwei was keenly aware that all of this was brought about by Ye Xiong. Without him, she didn’t know how many times she might have died.

“To congratulate you on your promotion, I’ll toast to you,” Ye Xiong said, pouring a glass of red wine and handing it over, raising his own.

After downing the glass, Luo Weiwei looked at him and said, “You didn’t come to see me just to treat me to a meal, did you?”

Women’s intuition is indeed sharp.

“I’m going on a mission, and I won’t be back for some time, so I wanted to have a meal with you. In case I accidentally kick the bucket, at least you’ll have something to remember me by,” Ye Xiong said with a smile.

“Come on, even sniper rifles can’t kill you. How could you be in any real danger?” Luo Weiwei didn’t buy it at all. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Disbelieving as she was, she still cautioned him, “Be careful with whatever you do. Don’t always be so impulsive. There are a lot of people who care about you.”

“What about you, do you care about me?” Ye Xiong asked with a smile.

“I fear if you died, I’d lose my support. If I run into those monsters again, I would still need you,” Luo Weiwei said, pretending to be heartless.

“For you, I won’t die so easily,” Ye Xiong responded with a smile.

As they chatted, the meal time flew by. Luo Weiwei checked the time and said, “It’s getting late; I have to go back to the station. I wish you a smooth journey.”

Ye Xiong stood up, walked over, and suddenly hugged her.

Luo Weiwei, caught off guard, found herself enveloped in his embrace. “What are you doing? People will see… Ah, let go… I’ve never seen anyone as shameless as you,” she protested.

No matter what she said, Ye Xiong held her tight.

With no other option, Luo Weiwei let him be.

After all, she rather liked this feeling.

For some reason, she suddenly felt a twinge in her nose and couldn’t help but hug him back, imploring, “Remember, you have to stay alive, or I’ll hold it against you.”

The two embraced for a long time before finally letting go.

After dropping Luo Weiwei off at the police station, Ye Xiong went to visit An Le’er in the hospital and stayed until Tang Ning got out of class. Only then did he drive to pick up Tang Ning from school.

His mind was swirling with thoughts as he drove, his expression darkening.

In the past, he was alone, capable of fending for himself. But now, he found that he was accumulating more and more ties.

Xinyi, Sister Hua, Luo Weiwei, Yangyang, Dad, Tang Ning…

More and more people around him had come to regard him as someone important. Therefore, no matter what, he had to defeat the Beast Organization.

Only by completely taking down Long Tianya and uprooting this long-established terrorist organization in Huaxia could he ensure a peaceful and safe life for the people around him.

To protect everything around him, he was willing to pay any price.

Ye Xiong took out his phone and dialed Long Zaitian’s number, “I’m ready.”

After bringing Tang Ning and Yang Xinyi home and having a meal with them, his phone rang just as they finished.

“It’s me, Phoenix. I’m outside your door right now.”

Ye Xiong was stunned for a moment, not expecting his teammate for this mission to be Phoenix.

It had been a long time since he’d been on a mission with Phoenix.

“Hold on, I’ll be right out,” he said.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Xiong glanced at Yang Xinyi and Tang Ning and saw that they both looked reluctant to let him go.

Especially Tang Ning – her eyes were red as if she was on the verge of tears.

“It’s just a mission, not a matter of life and death. Why the nerves?” Ye Xiong scolded as he patted her little head.

After reassuring them, Ye Xiong left home and walked out the door.

Phoenix’s car was already waiting outside.

As soon as he got in the car, Phoenix tossed a document to him.

“This mission is a crucial one. The chief asked me to be your contact person. Take a look at these documents to get a good understanding,” Phoenix said while driving.

Ye Xiong flipped through the document and then put it aside, “No need to look, I’ve seen it.”

Although Phoenix knew the chief had given him the documents to review, she still said, “Our target this time is the second of the four agents, named Li Chunpeng, who also has the closest ties with Long Tianya.”

“Li Chunpeng was born into a family that is anything but ordinary. His father, Li Ba, is a prominent figure in the martial arts community of the South, mastered in both internal and external styles. His Dragon Swimming Palm Technique is quite formidable, and according to the chief, his strength may not be below yours. The Li Family is one of the Four Great Martial Arts Families of the South. The entire family is trained in martial arts, and Li Chunpeng is their most promising heir. Ruan Jingyang is known as the top agent in intelligence because he possesses the Nine Palaces Mystic Step. If he didn’t have such an extraordinary technique, he probably wouldn’t even be a match for Li Chunpeng. So our target this time is not simple. Judging from Skeleton’s case, it’s very likely that Li Chunpeng is also a Gene Warrior…”
