Su Chen leapt onto the windowsill, and then after stepping twice on the pipe above, he was already outside the third-floor window of Qi ng's room.
Since the staff uniform of Belle Group was a deep, hidden green, almost equivalent to black, Su Chen did not change into other clothes.
At this mont, he was standing with one foot on the pipe's joint beside him, the other foot suspended in the air, and one hand lightly clinging to one side of the window fra, peeking carefully inside.
As there were no other buildings behind Qing Tower, there was no lighting in the area.
Now, with Su Chen clinging here, he had blended into the night, making it very difficult to spot him without looking closely.
Perhaps such an action would be very challenging for an ordinary person, even for a well-trained spy who could only endure a few minutes.
But it was not difficult for Su Chen, first because his Cultivation was high enough, and more importantly, he was accustod to it.
Luckily, Qi ng's curtains were not tightly drawn, leaving a thin gap that allowed Su Chen to see part of the room's interior.
Through the window, Su Chen saw Qi ng sitting on the sofa, drinking red wine, with twin sisters behind her—the sa twins Yunlong was still not over.
At the mont, Qi ng seed completely different from when she was with him, devoid of charm and seduction, displaying only a hint of sorrow.
"Perhaps this is the real her,"
thought Su Chen to himself, fully aware that Qi ng's various poses with him were intentional.
Su Chen just watched quietly, his body maintaining the sa position without even the smallest movent.
Unknowingly, half an hour had passed, the red wine in the bottle was down by half, and a slight flush had appeared on Qi ng's cheeks.
"Okay, I'm going to take a bath now, you guys can leave,"
Qi ng said to the twin sisters behind her.
"Yes!"
The twin sisters acknowledged and left the room.
Qi ng walked towards a glass door, and soon, the sound of running water could be heard.
Although Qi ng, a creature of such allure, was the dream of every man, Su Chen did not follow her but remained still, clinging to his spot.
He was never short of patience for such waiting, having endured it for more than ten hours before, let alone a little while now.
About fifteen minutes later, Qi ng erged, wrapped in a bathrobe, with slender and fair legs still dotted with water droplets.
Just then, the ringtone of a cell phone suddenly went off; after glancing at it, Qi ng's face instantly grew pale.
After hesitating for two seconds, she answered the call:
"My Lord ssenger!"
She greeted, the mont the call connected, with utter respect.
Su Chen, listening from outside the window, furrowed his brow slightly at the title.
My Lord ssenger? Who could that be?
Was it he who was directing Qi ng's actions?
It seed that today's visit was worthwhile after all, at least there was a discovery!
Seeing the expression on Qi ng's face, showing both respect and fear, it was clear that whoever could make a Qi Refinent Peak individual like Qi ng react this way had to be no ordinary figure.
However, Su Chen did not dwell on it further, continuing to listen intently and hold his breath.
"My Lord ssenger, the plan has been ongoing."
"My Lord ssenger, please hear my explanation, Hades is not an ordinary individual, so I…"
"Yes, My Lord ssenger!"
"Yes! My Lord ssenger!"
Then, Qi ng hung up the call, and a shade of gloom crossed her stunning face.
She poured a full glass of red wine and drank it all in one go.
Then she poured another half glass, swaying slightly as she held the glass and walked to the window.
Su Chen imdiately released his hand, which had been clinging to the wall by the window, and then his other hand reached out to grasp the water pipe.
At the sa ti, his body shrunk back and hid behind the wall.
"Rustle!"
Su Chen then heard the sound of the curtains being drawn, and Qi ng looked out the window into the moonless night sky, murmuring,
"What should I do?"
Her deep sigh followed soon after...
Su Chen maintained his position without any movents, while Qi ng seed to have settled herself by the window.
About twenty minutes later, Su Chen finally heard Qi ng leave the window and her footsteps gradually faded away.
Su Chen also moved, reaching the ground in just two moves, the whole process almost completely silent.
When Su Chen got back into his car, he couldn't help but ponder the strange phone call Qi ng had just made.
First, Qi ng addressed that person as "Emissary," implying that while this person had a high status and even directed Qi ng's actions, he was definitely not the true mastermind behind the scenes.
With not many clues, Su Chen didn't co to any solid conclusions, but he kept the title "Emissary" in mind.
Then, Su Chen started the car and left the hotel plaza where he had parked, heading ho...
It was after nine o'clock when he got ho, and he found that Lin Ruoxue had not returned yet.
He couldn't help but curl his lips:
"My wife, ah!"
About Lin Ruoxue the workaholic, Su Chen didn't really have a solution; although he had resolved to change her, he wasn't too confident about it.
Once Lin Ruoxue set her mind to sothing, she was soone that no one could easily persuade.
Just then, the sound of the door opening suddenly rang out, and soon after, Lin Ruoxue's figure appeared at the door.
"Wife, have you eaten?" asked Su Chen.
"Didn't you tell you were busy and didn't have ti to cook? So, I ate outside,"
Lin Ruoxue replied casually.
"That's good."
Su Chen nodded:
"Well, wife, you've been working hard all day; you should get so rest early."
Upon hearing this, Lin Ruoxue imdiately rembered what she had promised him during the day and gave him an annoyed glance:
"Are you that impatient?"
Su Chen was slightly taken aback at her words, and then he quickly understood, finding himself sowhere between wanting to laugh and cry.
The truth was, when he said that just now, he really hadn't ant it in that sense; he simply wanted her to rest early.
But since the lady of the house had brought it up herself, he couldn't just not respond, could he?
"Of course, how could one not be anxious about such matters?"
With those words, Su Chen reached for Lin Ruoxue who had just changed her shoes, and she half-heartedly followed him upstairs.
Just as Su Chen was about to seize the mont, Lin Ruoxue imdiately stopped him:
"Go take a shower first!"
"There's no rush, business before pleasure!"
"No, don't touch if you haven't showered!"
Lin Ruoxue was adamant, as if this was an inviolable rule...
"So finicky!"
Su Chen felt defeated and, with a shrug, took his clothes and walked into the bathroom...
