Chapter 446: 451 Danger at our Side 2_1
Back then, Hong Lang’s drug trafficking network was hit hard by an international crackdown, causing irreparable loss. Devoid of resources, he couldn’t exact revenge for his son.
However, he made it clear to the world that as long as he was still breathing, eliminating Blue Wolf and seeking revenge would be his only mission.
In recent years, taking advantage of renewed chaos in the Middle East, he managed to recover some ground, gradually expanding his influence. However, he was still far from his peak power of the past.
The bombing incident in Sanya had him extremely worried. He had to be extra careful with this adversary!
Qin Muchuan rubbed his eyes, silently swearing to himself that this time, he would eliminate them for good, leaving no loose ends.

When Lin Xiangwan woke up, it was already in the afternoon. She looked at the sunlight outside, feeling a bit woozy.
How could days pass so swiftly?
No, she could not let life slip away like this.
Lin Xiangwan left the resting room and rushed to the desk of Boss Qin Muchuan. "Qin Muchuan, how about giving me a job? This way, I won’t be such a waste, or a burden. Just look at what I have become now—I don’t even recognize myself!"
Qin Muchuan looked up from his computer screen at her. "What kind of work do you want to do?"
"Um, anything is fine!" Lin Xiangwan looked around. "If you’re talking about sales, I’ve worked as a sales promoter before. For administrative work, I believe I can handle it as well!"
"Working as an administrative assistant seems like a waste of talent!" Qin Muchuan sat in his swivel chair, rocking back and forth, contemplating. "Having a high achiever from B University work in such a position seems like a waste of resources—it offers no room for advancement."
"So what do you think I should do?" Lin Xiangwan asked humbly.
Yes, she did have experience as a director, but after all, this was a formal company, different from a hotel. Her previous experience might not be applicable here.
After pondering for a moment, Qin Muchuan asked, "Do you really want to work?"
"Yes, indeed!" She nodded vigorously.
"Then you would like to take my advice?" He asked again.
She nodded again.
"In that case, I want you to take care of my grandparents at home!" Qin Muchuan said.
Lin Xiangwan frowned. "Are you looking down on me? Do you think I’m not capable of working?"
"You’re misunderstanding!" Qin Muchuan said earnestly. "My grandparents are aged. I used to live in the ancestral residence and take care of them. Ever since we got married, though, they went overseas for a vacation. So, I have stayed in our villa. Now that they are back, I naturally have to do the same as before. Of course, you also need to do the same—to take care of them..."
"Certainly! Your grandparents are mine too, and they treat me well!" Even though Grandma was still a bit harsh on her, she believed Grandma would come around eventually.
"Right, they are home all day, and with Xu Feng’e around, we can’t guarantee she won’t provoke them. So, the job I’m assigning to you is a very important one, and only you can do it well."
"Alright then, I’ll stay home and take care of your grandparents!" Lin Xiangwan agreed. "But it can’t be today. I’m already late!"
"No problem, you can start tomorrow!" Qin Muchuan winked at her.
"Okay!"
Qin Muchuan breathed a sigh of relief. It was better for her to spend more time in the ancestral home.
It was heavily guarded. Ordinary people could not get close.
So, he could be somewhat assured of her safety on a daily basis.
"We’ll pick up the kids later, then we go home together!" Qin Muchuan added.
"What? Isn’t it too early? It’s not time for school to be over yet!" Lin Xiangwan checked her watch.
"It doesn’t matter if we pick them up a bit early once in a while. Plus, the last class today is a self-study session. They can still study at home!" Qin Muchuan sounded unusually decisive.
Lin Xiangwan disagreed, but he had made up his mind. If she keeps contradicting him, he probably wouldn’t want to listen to her.
She planned to voice her opinion slowly in the future!
Just as Lin Xiangwan and Qin Muchuan had assumed, Xu Feng’e had already arrived at the ancestral home when they returned.
She paraded around like the lady of the house, commanding a group of maids.
"Hey, there’s still dust here. Yes, clean it up. No matter how high-watt the bulb is, if the lamp is dim, the light won’t be very bright!" She pointed to the ceiling as she spoke.
A maid, slightly unwilling, retorted, "We just cleaned the lamp the day before yesterday; it is fairly clean!"
"How dare you talk back to me. You cleaned it the day before yesterday? Why not say you cleaned it last year! It has been 48 hours already. How much dust do you think has gathered on the lampshade?"
This time, the maid didn’t respond.
Xu Feng’e noticed that Lin Xiangwan had come in and began to flaunt her authority, "I don’t know where you got the audacity, but you dare to talk back when the master is speaking. You really don’t know your place. I don’t know who spoiled you and caused you to slack off every day, still expecting a salary, right?"
Lin Xiangwan couldn’t stand it. Even though she’d been in this house for only a few days, she could tell that the maids were quite diligent.
They were efficient, kept the house spotless, and everything was in order. It wasn’t as bad as Xu Feng’e claimed.
She felt the need to defend these aunts. "Ahem, I don’t think it’s dirty here. Besides, Grandma mentioned that it’s our good fortune to have these aunts work for us. Auntie, perhaps you have an overemphasis on cleanliness? Your villa must be very clean, right?"
Xu Feng’e raised her chin. "That’s right, I don’t take cleanliness lightly!"
"Oh..." Lin Xiangwan nodded in understanding. "Then, I wonder if Father is very particular about cleanliness. If he isn’t, wouldn’t living together be quite a torture for you?"
Actually, what Lin Xiangwan really wanted to say was: Father keeps other women outside, and if you can still live with such a man, isn’t it disgusting enough to make you want to vomit?
However, this was the Qin family, and she needed to be considerate. She couldn’t be too blunt with her words.
Of course, if Xu Feng’e continued to bully her, she wouldn’t be reticent.
Xu Feng’e could hear the insinuation and was too angry to find a retort.
The maids at the side were grinning. The young mistress really helped them voice their anger.
Lin Xiangwan looked at Xu Feng’e innocently.
Suddenly, Xu Feng’e walked towards her!
