Chapter 1157
1157 Distance and politeness
Brother Jiang looked at Lan Xiao’s red and swollen eyes, and a trace of pain flashed in his eyes.
“Why didn’t you sleep a little longer?”
Lan Xiao entered the study and sat down on a random sofa.
Her expression was listless and listless.
“It’s a nightmare even if I sleep, Yingluo.”
“Did you dream of Wen Muchu?” brother Jiang’s eyes flickered.
Lan Xiao didn’t deny it. She lowered her head and nodded.
Brother Jiang sighed and left the study. He warmed a glass of milk and handed it to Lan Xiao.
“Have a sip of milk first, Yingluo.”
Lan Xiao was touched, but she couldn’t refuse. She took the milk and thanked brother Jiang.
Brother Jiang sat opposite her and watched her take a few sips of milk before he heaved a sigh of relief.
“Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?” He asked.
Lan Xiao held the glass of milk in his hand and a hint of hesitation flashed past his eyes.
She pursed her lips and looked up at brother Jiang.
The words that were stuck in her throat could not be said.
Originally, he had already left the XY organization.
What if he were to return to The Tiger’s Den again this time?
It was impossible for him to escape unscathed.
Leng fan was not an easy person to deal with.
Once he joined the XY organization this time, he was afraid that he would have a slim chance of survival.
brother Jiang, I’m sorry. Lan Xiao’s voice was a little hoarse, and she found it difficult to speak.
Brother Jiang was a smart man, how could he not see through Lan Xiao’s thoughts?
He pursed his lips and chuckled softly.
“Alright, you don’t have to say anymore. I already know what you want to say to me.”
Lan Xiao was taken aback, and a hint of surprise flashed past her eyes.
Brother Jiang, you know what I’m going to say? ”
Brother Jiang gently nodded. His eyes were deep as he looked out of the window at the gradually darkening night.
“You want to join XY and personally rescue Wen Muchu. I’m the only one who has a connection with XY. Besides, Leng fan has always wanted to bring me back to Yingluo.”
Lan Xiao lowered her eyes and pursed her lips.”I know that this request of mine seems to be a little too much. “I know better than anyone what kind of place XY is. However, you’re the only one who can enter the organization. Brother Jiang, I really don’t know how else we can save Wen Muchu other than this.”
Lan Xiao’s voice was a little choked up as he spoke.
Brother Jiang sighed. He moved closer to Lan Xiao and reached out to pull her into his arms.
He gently patted her shoulder and consoled her in a low voice, ” “Don’t cry, I didn’t say I wouldn’t agree to your request, Yingluo.”
Lan Xiao felt terrible. She knew that brother Jiang would definitely agree to her request.
However, it was because of his promise that she felt even more embarrassed.
For the sake of Wen Muchu, she did not hesitate to involve brother Jiang in this. This was very unfair to brother Jiang!
If there was a second way, she would not want to drag brother Jiang into this. She did not want to drag him into a dangerous Whirlpool.
“Brother Jiang, I really, I really don’t want you to be in danger because of this. However, I really don’t have any other choice. I can’t just watch Wen Muchu being taken away by the people of XY and do nothing. “I don’t know what they want to do. I’m worried about Wen Muchu.” Lan Xiao’s eyes were red as he bit his lip and looked up at brother Jiang.
Brother Jiang’s eyes flashed with tenderness. He looked at her teary eyes and his voice softened a little.
He curled his lips and smiled helplessly.
“Alright, don’t feel guilty. Even if you don’t tell me about this, I’ll still sneak into XY again. An hour ago, I received an order from President Wen. Now, I’m from the President’s House. I will naturally follow the president’s orders.”
Lan Xiao was slightly stunned, and a trace of disbelief flashed past his eyes.
did Mr. President give you an order? ”
Brother Jiang nodded. yes, he asked me to return to sy. So, you don’t have to feel guilty. I’m just doing a mission. This is a mission given to me by the president. I’m not going because of you.”
Even though he said that, the guilt in Lan Xiao’s heart didn’t decrease at all.
No matter what, brother Jiang had decided to infiltrate the XY organization again for Wen Muchu’s sake.
Lan Xiao’s lips curled into a smile.
“Brother Jiang, I’ll go with you to check out my skills. I’m not much weaker than you. Believe me, I won’t be a burden to you, and I’ll even be your support!”
Brother Jiang said hesitantly.
“Lan Xiao, I’m afraid you can’t come with me. Because Mr. President told you to return to Jin Jing immediately and not to participate in this operation.”
Lan Xiao was extremely anxious. She frowned and looked at brother Jiang in confusion.
“Why? Why didn’t you let me participate? You don’t believe that I can help you complete the mission?”
Brother Jiang patted her shoulder to comfort her.
“Don’t worry, listen to me first. The reason why President Wen made such a decision was because he felt that if something happened to you and Wen Muchu was rescued, he would definitely blame Mr. President for not taking good care of you. If you don’t want the father and son to turn against each other, you’d better listen to me and stay in the Jin capital! Don’t worry, I’ll definitely succeed and bring Wen Muchu back to you, Yueyue!”
Lan Xiao was stunned. It was as if he had completely lost his soul and became soulless.
As long as Wen Muchu was not back, she would be like a walking corpse. How would she have the mood to do anything else?
Her heart could not settle down, and she could not wait.
Lan Xiao thought for a while and looked at brother Jiang with a burning gaze.
“Brother Jiang, I can’t just wait like this. I have to go, Yingluo. Please tell Mr. President for me. If he doesn’t let me go, I’ll go secretly myself.”
Brother Jiang looked at her determined look and his heart ached.
At this moment, he finally understood.
How important was Wen Muchu to Lan Xiao?
He was so important that no one could replace Wen Muchu’s position in Lan Xiao’s heart.
If something happened to him one day, would she care about him as much as she did?
She was also like a moth that flew into the fire for him without hesitation?
Brother Jiang shook his head and chuckled in a self-deprecating manner.
okay, don’t worry. You sit here first. I’ll call the president and report the situation to him. Brother Jiang had no choice but to compromise.
Lan Xiao bowed to brother Jiang solemnly.
brother Jiang, thank you so much, Yingluo.
Brother Jiang was slightly stunned by Lan Xiao’s bow.
His eyes dimmed for a moment.
He pulled his stiff lips and left the study.
When the door closed, the smile at the corner of his mouth gradually became bitter and dark.
There was an uncontrollable pain in her heart.
Her alienation and politeness towards him made him feel dejected.
Brother Jiang left the room and walked to the stairs.
