Mr. Tycoon Is Actually the Father of My Child!
Chapter 446: Too Beautiful

Chapter 446: Chapter 446: Too Beautiful

"Eight years ago, when I first arrived at the border, I received a mission to rescue trafficked women. Xiu was one of them."

Chen Yi reached out to remove the scarf around his neck, unconsciously caressing it, as a hint of gentleness flashed in his sharp eyes.

"At that time, she was somewhat depressed. I asked her where she lived, but she wouldn’t say. She simply shook her head when I wanted to send her back home, pleading with me to let her stay at the border. After consulting with the higher-ups and obtaining their approval, handling all necessary procedures, I allowed her to stay and support at the border."

"She was a wise and talented woman. With her around, the border’s chores and miscellaneous tasks were all managed methodically. It was very cold at the border then, and in her spare time, she started knitting scarves and gloves for us. See, this is the scarf she knitted for me."

Chen Yi paused, a trace of regret flashed in his eyes, "Unfortunately, she stayed here for only a month before her family came to take her away."

A淡然的陈述, 带着深深的怀念.

Lin Qian quietly listened, not interrupting Chen Yi’s recollection.

No wonder when she first met him, his neck was wrapped in this scarf.

Clearly, Xiu left a profound impression in Chen Yi’s heart.

Very curious about how that woman got trafficked.

And why she wouldn’t return, preferring to stay at the harsh border?

"Her family took her back? Then why was she trafficked here?"

"Because..."

Chen Yi thought of the man who came to take Xiu away, swallowed his words.

"Maybe because she’s so beautiful."

And thus provoked envy.

He was subtly warned by those above, the man’s status was noble, and instructed to bury that matter deep and not bring it up again.

Lin Qian glanced at Chen Yi, seeing he was reluctant to discuss further, she smiled and touched her face.

"True, being too beautiful isn’t necessarily a good thing. Look at me, suddenly trafficked, could it also be because I am too beautiful?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yi chuckled, gesturing Lin Qian to talk while walking.

"The ones who took you are criminals frequently roaming in the gray area. They have a whole chain of industry. Currently, we are deeply investigating, hoping to find their leader and eliminate the entire chain swiftly."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qian hesitated to speak.

She actually wanted to ask whether the people who captured her deliberately targeted her or did she just have the misfortune to encounter them.

But upon reflection, she felt the former was more likely.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been suddenly attacked, nor would she have encountered two mysterious men in black during her escape.

In the end, the person who captured her seemed to have been ready, like a mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

"Miss Lin, have a good rest after dinner, we will arrange to send you back tomorrow."

Chen Yi escorted Lin Qian to the dining area and reminded her.

"Alright, thank you, Captain Chen."

"You’re welcome."

Chen Yi nodded slightly to Lin Qian, gave her another glance, and walked away briskly.

That glance seemed like longing.

Of course, he wasn’t longing for her, but for Xiu, who had a resemblance to her.

Lin Qian blinked, curved her lips, and found Pei Ling, went to her side.

It’s the border cafeteria, very bustling around.

The dishes on the square table were three dishes and one soup, along with a steaming bowl of rice.

"Sister, what were you talking about just now?"

Pei Ling handed a small bowl of rice to Lin Qian, curiously asking.

Lin Qian smelled the aroma of the food, and gave Pei Ling a smile.

"We were talking about another woman who looks similar to me, see my common face!"

"Haha! Sister, you’re not ordinary; it’s because your face is unique, that’s why people remember."

"Ah! My face is unique? Yes, oddities notably catch one’s attention, right?"

"Hahaha, sister, stop teasing!"

"..."

The two joked briefly, ate, then returned to their room.

The room had only one bed, with four women sharing, none being pretentious, all crowded onto the bed.

After all, they were content just having escaped alive.

"Sister, where is your home? Can I visit you in the future?"

Pei Ling shared a blanket with Lin Qian, her clear voice asking.

"My home is in Su City, but, I will be working at MXL Company in F Country for a while. If you want to find me, come to the company."

She didn’t know when she’d return to Su City.

Since she didn’t know when Chu Yelin would let her go.

"At MXL Company?"

Pei Ling murmured thoughtfully.

Lin Qian turned her head to see Pei Ling’s smooth skin like a peeled egg, and asked, "Lingling, how about you? Where’s your home?"

The girl must be just coming of age, pretty and elegant, likely a wealthy family’s daughter.

"My home..."

Pei Ling paused, her bright red lips pouting slightly, "My home is in deep mountains and forests, better not to mention."

Lin Qian: "..."

The girl must still be arguing with her family!

Look at that bratty attitude!

"Alright, after such a thrilling day, you must be tired, get some sleep early."

The other two women had already fallen asleep, Lin Qian softly spoke to Pei Ling.

"Hmm, sister, I’ll definitely visit you."

Pei Ling turned and hugged Lin Qian’s waist, speaking softly.

Lin Qian chuckled, not taking it seriously, watched her close her eyes, and her thoughts floated away.

Night grew silent and deserted, a day was about to end.

Will someone notice her missing?

Did Yin Moran search for her?

The hard object around her neck touched her skin, sending a chill.

Lin Qian lowered her gaze, pinched the pendant of the necklace.

He mentioned there was a tracking device here.

Will he come to find her?

Night, total quietness.

A plane’s loud engine sound came from the border’s sky.

Chen Yi received a notice, hurriedly crawled out of bed, gesturing to the guards to stay calm.

Someone came for Lin Qian!

The plane landed, a tall man strode swiftly in the night.

Wrapped in heavy cold, with deep anxiety.

"Captain Chen, I am Yin Moran, I’ve come to take Lin Qian home."

Yin Moran strode up to Chen Yi, extended his hand without further formalities.

"Mr. Yin, please wait. I’ve sent someone to call Miss Lin."

Chen Yi nodded slightly, indicating to Yin Moran to wait a bit.

"Thank you."

Yin Moran’s expression was stern, his heart still hanging in suspense.

Grateful for placing a tracking device in Lin Qian’s necklace.

Also grateful Dongfang Ming had some connections, enabling the local troops to act quickly when Lin Qian was trafficked to the border, rescuing her and others.

Meanwhile, he borrowed a private plane from Dongfang Ming, rushing straight to the border.

Only seeing his woman safe, and personally taking her home, would he be at peace!
