Chapter 1415: Chapter 1434: Truly Smart

"Wife, you’re so clever." The proud chuckle of Huo Beijiang came through the phone, "How did you guess it was me? Is it because you think about me every day, you can’t bear it anymore, and that’s how you knew?"

"Yes!" Jiang Nanfei wiped away her tears, her answer crisp and decisive without a moment’s hesitation. Because that was truly what she felt in her heart, and although she still felt shy, she had enough courage.

Moreover, there wasn’t much time left, and she didn’t know what the future would hold.

Huo Beijiang was stunned, and in that instant, it was as if his heart was struck by something, making him somewhat at a loss for what to do, his heart beating fiercely. It felt like he had waited for many, many years, devoted countless efforts, and spent a long time just to wait for Jiang Nanfei’s single "Yes".

This feeling came out of nowhere, but it felt so real.

"Wife..." His voice came out hoarse, his Adam’s apple moving up and down, and after a long while, he said, "Wife, I’m so happy to hear you say that."

Jiang Nanfei couldn’t help but smile, bringing the phone closer to her ear, as though this could make the distance between them feel smaller.

"Me too." Jiang Nanfei listened quietly to his breathing, having so much to say in her heart, but at this moment, not knowing what to say.

"Have you been taking good care of yourself while I’ve been away? Have you been taking your medicine on time? Have you been going to the hospital for checkups on time?" Without waiting for Jiang Nanfei to speak, Huo Beijiang started asking anxiously. When he was out on a mission, what worried him most was Jiang Nanfei’s health.

Especially after just finding out that Huo Kewei’s situation in M country was not going smoothly, this made him wish he could go himself. But actually, Huo Beijiang had a lot of trust in Huo Kewei’s abilities; despite Ke Wei’s young age, having been an unruly prodigy since childhood, his insight and resourcefulness were ranked highly among the previous generation in Imperial City.

Simply the fact that he could become brothers with Zuo Xinyao and partner with him in business was proof of his own strength.

That things weren’t going well in M country could only mean someone was plotting something, and it was aimed at him.

Huo Beijiang’s brows furrowed tightly, his mind already weighing options, and although he was not in the country, the forces and resources he could mobilize were not few. As for the person daring enough to pull strings behind his back, he could guess who it was without thinking.

His thin lips curled into a cold arc, determined to issue a fatal blow to Leng Peixi later. He absolutely couldn’t let her continue with her sneaky tricks. He had no interest in her schemes and plans whatsoever.

So-called blood relations were worthless to him. People he recognized were important to him regardless of blood relations.

Those he did not acknowledge, no matter what blood relation existed, were only enemies.

"Bei Jiang?" Jiang Nanfei noticed the quiet on his end and called out softly, "Is something wrong?"

"Nothing’s wrong, I just miss you." Huo Beijiang suppressed all his emotions, his heart hanging on Jiang Nanfei at the other end of the phone. "How are you doing at school? Are you adapting well? Have any male classmates been hitting on you? Wife, I have to seriously tell you, as a married woman, you cannot just chat with male classmates, otherwise, I will get jealous."

After finishing, he switched to a very aggrieved tone, "I’m really scary when I get jealous, completely like drowning in a sea of vinegar, and then you’ll have no man to dote on you afterward."

Jiang Nanfei’s mood gradually relaxed, and she purposefully said, "Who says there won’t be any? Are you implying that I have no personal charm at all?"
