Rong Yue pulled away after a while and her eyes narrowed into slits as she glared at the man in front of her.
"You still haven't given me a proper explanation!" Just thinking of how much trouble she had gone through just to save him, she felt like he really deserved a beating!
Qin Yichen grinned and then pulled her into the living room. He pulled out a chair by the dining table and forced her to sit there.
Since he knew the little girl was a glutton, anything he wanted to say was better said with food and so he went into the kitchen and brought some leftovers and snacks.
"I'll have the team prepare proper meals on the plane, for now, you can eat this first," he told her in a pampering tone.
Even though her expression softened at the food in front of her, Rong Yue didn't want to let go that easily so she kept glaring at him until he started talking.
"The Viridian is not owned by only one power or one country despite it being located here. Previously, when I got the message, I knew it was someone that was trying to overreach, but I also cannot take my brother's security for granted so I had to go,"
"Your brother?" Rong Yue's brows crinkle as she tried to make sense of the situation. After all, the brother she was familiar with was Qin Heng.
"Hmm," Qin Yichen hummed and leaned back into the chair, his broad shoulders spreading out and giving off a kingly aura.
"My first brother in the military also manages our family's manpower, however, recently, things have been unstable and so many powers have been curious about where our base is as they can't find him..."
Rong Yue listened patiently as he explained why his brother's location was so important to many key figures.
"So I pretended to have been affected by the incense so that I could hear what information he was trying to get out of me."
Her eyes opened wide as he revealed his plot. "Did I ruin matters for you?"
Qin Yichen smiled, leaning in and taking one of the grapes that were in front of her.
Usually, Rong Yue might have glared at him for taking the grape but as she was worried about the thought of ruining his plan, she didn't even pay attention to that single action.
"Hmm, you have," Qin Yichen teased watching as the girl's face dropped and her brows crinkled with worry.
However, Rong Yue didn't even notice as she continued.
Her plan was simple, hack into the phone to be able to turn on the recording, hear the conversation, and also read through his phone.
With a plan in mind, she worked decisively, gaining control over Andrew's phone in about ten minutes.
She first navigated from there and turned on the recording feature, that way, her laptop was now connected to the phone's speaker.
One voice soon boomed out from the other end.
"A woman? Didn't they say he was allergic to women and wouldn't even dare to let any lady touch him?" One of the three men asked.
When Rong Yue heard that, she looked up at the man in front of her. What allergic???
"There's no way I can be lying at this point. From what I see, he had only been pretending to be affected the whole time, as soon as I wanted to deal with the lady, he gave up his pretense," Andrew argued back, clear agitation in his voice.
"We should thank the lady, the consequences would have been dire if he knew you wanted to access the backend security of the Qin Corporation," a new voice which meant it was clearly the third person in the room added.
Just from his voice, one could tell that he was a tactical and shrewd person and even Qin Yichen's eyes narrowed.
"You say it as if what I am interested in is the Qin Corporation. We just need the secret loop he had added to their security system that way, finding Qin Feng wouldn't be hard anymore," Andrew shot back.
Rong Yue and Qin Yichen's eyes met and tactic understanding passed through them.
There was something Andrew needed and he was trying to understand Qin Yichen's security.
She remembered them saying during the competition that the security he had built was something out of the ordinary.
Clearly, it had made even these Americans helpless!
Respect for the man in front of her filled her mind. Even though in the future, their country would catch up very fiercely, at this time, being able to create a technology that could make them helpless was also a great feat.
