Chapter 791: Great Wall 595

"Brother Jiang, see you later."

With the affair concluded, they brushed off their garments and vanished, deeply concealing both their identities and names.

Ye Tingxuan, who had just sealed a deal with a bar, got into a taxi with his two sisters. As they were parting, he waved goodbye to Shi Qianxi.

Shi Qianxi nodded and smiled politely.

The taxi departed.

"Hello, are you the one who called for a chauffeur?" A small e-scooter pulled up.

Jiang Chen nodded, then said to Shi Qianxi, "Let’s go."

The chauffeur stowed the e-scooter in the trunk of the Maserati.

"Where to?"

"Have you booked a hotel yet?" Jiang Chen asked Shi Qianxi, who was sitting in the back with him.

"Let’s go to your hotel."

"I don’t own a hotel."

"Then where are you staying?" Shi Qianxi asked, puzzled.

"The Epang Palace."

Back when they were in Goryeo, she had heard from him that he had bought the Epang Palace from Lan Peizhi. Shi Qianxi said nonchalantly, "Then, we’ll go to the Epang Palace."

Jiang Chen was silent, seemingly hesitant and troubled.

"What? Is it too much to ask to stay there? I can pay if it’s necessary."

Without arguing, Jiang Chen instructed the chauffeur up front, "To the Epang Palace."

The Maserati came to life.

"That Geng Long, I seem to have heard of him. Wasn’t he under Miss Lan?" Shi Qianxi inquired.

"He used to be."

Jiang Chen kept his response brief.

"To kneel on command, that takes quite some courage."

There was no scorn in her voice, on the contrary, Shi Qianxi sounded almost admiring.

When viewed from different perspectives and heights, the perceptions can be completely different.

Han Xin, the Immortal in the Army, once endured the humiliation of crawling between someone’s legs, yet later generations praised and admired him for it.

A man’s knees hold more value than gold.

Those destined for greatness often have the capacity to endure what others cannot.

Just now, in that situation, with Ye Tingxuan calling him out by name, if he had refused to kneel, knowing Ye Tingxuan’s personality, he surely wouldn’t have let it go easily and things could have gotten more troublesome.

But that man, without relying on powerful connections or arguing, cleanly knelt down, cutting off any opportunity for Ye Tingxuan to continue the disturbance.

Moreover.

The bar’s owner would surely be extremely grateful to him now.

What decisiveness.

And what incredible forbearance.

It wasn’t just Jiang Chen learning; even Shi Qianxi was continuously learning.

If it had been her, she probably wouldn’t have managed such a feat.

"Do you have a conflict with him?"

Hearing this, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but turn his head and give a surprised smile, "Why do you say that?"

"Given your character, if there wasn’t a conflict, you wouldn’t have stayed silent just now."

Jiang Chen was silent.

Truth be told, this young lady really knew him quite well, and her observational skills were sharp too.

"...It’s not exactly a conflict, more like a slight friction."

Shi Qianxi responded casually, "It’s more than a slight friction now."

"What do you mean?"

"With so many onlookers, being forced to kneel, no matter how flexible he is, he surely wouldn’t be happy about it. Remember how King Goujian of Yue sought revenge against the State of Wu after biding his time."

Shi Qianxi spoke unhurriedly, "He surely doesn’t dare hold a grudge against Ye Tingxuan, so the bitterness will have to be directed at you."

Jiang Chen gave a wry smile and thought it over.

Indeed, it made sense.

"Impressive, Director Shi."

He looked at her as if seeing her in a new light, "You’re getting sharper by the day."

"Are you saying I used to be stupid?"

Shi Qianxi gave him a menacing look.

"No," Jiang Chen laughed, "You were always smart, just not this smart."

"I’ve been forced to learn. Otherwise, how can I contend with those old foxes?"

Jiang Chen chuckled.

"I’m going to sleep for a while, wake me up when we get there."

Having said this, Shi Qianxi naturally leaned her head on Jiang Chen’s shoulder. She had drunk quite a bit, and though not enough to make her sick, it had indeed made her head somewhat foggy.

Soon, even breathing could be heard by her side.

She had fallen asleep so quickly.

They say that the faster one falls asleep, the more it shows a lack of guard against the surroundings.

Jiang Chen turned his head to look out the window, remaining still in his posture.

"Why didn’t you wake me up yesterday? I didn’t even get a chance to shower because of that."

The next day.

Jiang Chen and Shi Qianxi were having lunch at the Epang Palace.

"You were sleeping so deeply, I didn’t have the heart to wake you," explained Jiang Chen.

Shi Qianxi rolled her eyes enormously, not buying it, "You were just afraid I’d hassle you if I woke up, weren’t you?"

She had hit the nail on the head.

Jiang Chen quietly continued eating, pretending to hear nothing.

"You could have at least taken off my clothes. Sleeping in them, aren’t you afraid I’d catch a cold?"

What provocative words.

Jiang Chen didn’t go into the virtues of modesty for women; feigning ignorance, he changed the subject, "Where would you like to go for a visit?"

Shi Qianxi picked up a piece of salmon, "No time, the people from Jin Hai are arriving this afternoon."

The greater the power, the greater the responsibility, and one’s personal space gets dramatically compressed.

Shi Qianxi had no further complaints and chewed on the salmon, "The food here doesn’t seem that tasty."

Jiang Chen regarded her.

"The most delicious things are always in the streets and alleys."

One of the eight wonders of the world.

The Great Wall.

Rising and falling, winding majestically.

As a symbolic historical site of Shenzhou, it is globally renowned for its incredible grandeur and awe-inspiring presence, and whenever foreign dignitaries visit Shenzhou, visiting the Great Wall is a must.

There’s a saying.

He who has not climbed the Great Wall is not a true man.

"Emperor Qin built the Great Wall, what a remarkably visionary strategic move."

The Great Wall, which never lacks visitors any time of the year, today has attracted a unique group of tourists.

Choosing not to take the cable car, this group of men and women, equal in number, set out on foot to ascend the Great Wall, their distinctive air and exceptional appearance attracting countless inquisitive glances.

"Sometimes being too visionary isn’t a good thing. To build the Great Wall, he ended up sacrificing the nation, and the hard-earned achievements were handed over to others. That’s a loss that reaches all the way to one’s ancestors. If it were me, I would never do that."
