The Supreme Martial Expert of the Female CEO-Chapter 1779 - 1776: Who Is the Mole
"When did it become your turn to lecture me, Ximen Yan?" Ximen Yan said coldly.
Ximen Cheng was silent for a moment, then said, "I wouldn’t dare, but... Young Master Ximen Yan, although I don’t know who previously leaked the whereabouts of Little Princess Ximen Shuang to you, I hope this matter ends here. And... it was you who did it, right? I can also pretend nothing happened with the airship incident!"
Ximen Yan frowned, "What do you mean by that? Do you think the airship incident was my doing?"
"Our Ximen Family’s airships have never had such incidents, let alone one carrying the Little Princess. Moreover, I checked, and the airship’s defense system was sabotaged! I initially thought there was another enemy hidden on the airship, but upon seeing you, Young Master Ximen Yan, everything became clear!" Ximen Cheng’s face showed a pained expression.
Ximen Yan remained silent for a moment before saying, "Ximen Cheng, if I don’t stop taking action against Ximen Shuang, what will you do?"
Ximen Cheng’s face showed a struggling expression. After a long while, he sighed and said hoarsely, "If you insist on harming Miss Ximen Shuang, I’d have to report it truthfully to the Family Head!"
"Are you threatening me?" Ximen Yan asked coolly.
"How could I dare threaten Young Master Ximen Yan? I just feel that some actions are excessive, and not beneficial to you!" Ximen Cheng sighed.
"Alright, I understand!" Ximen Yan said indifferently, "I will stop, but I hope you keep this matter to yourself, or you know what I’m capable of!"
"I wouldn’t dare!" Ximen Cheng said in a low voice.
When he looked up again, Ximen Yan had disappeared. He couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, "Young Master Ximen Yan, I hope you can stop in time, otherwise, if the Family Head finds out, you won’t escape disaster either!"
In Ling Feng’s room, Ximen Yan returned to Ling Feng, whose brow was furrowed, deep in thought.
In fact, just now, it was Ling Feng controlling Ximen Yan to converse with Ximen Cheng. Through the conversation, Ling Feng realized he might have misunderstood Ximen Cheng.
According to Ximen Cheng, Ximen Yan did contact Ximen Cheng, but Ximen Cheng seemingly did not agree to Ximen Yan’s request. If that’s the case, then who could the undercover be?
Moreover, what caught Ling Feng’s attention even more was that the airship’s defense system was deliberately sabotaged. If it wasn’t Ximen Cheng, it means there’s another undercover agent on the airship.
And Ling Feng knew very well that Ximen Yan was already dead; no one could give orders to the so-called undercover. So why did the person decide to disable the airship’s defense system at this time? Did they receive orders from someone else, or...
"Is there really someone who wants to kill Ximen Shuang?" This thought popped into Ling Feng’s mind, startling him.
Ximen Shuang was the Ximen Family’s Little Princess, the Family Head’s favorite granddaughter, holding a high status in the Ximen Family. If Ximen Shuang were to die on the airship, everyone on the airship would have to be buried with her!
But even so, someone still wanted to kill Ximen Shuang, why is that?
Ling Feng felt a sense of urgency, as if an invisible eye was watching him from behind.
Ximen Shuang was an important piece in Ling Feng’s infiltration into the Ximen Family. Ling Feng would never let Ximen Shuang die; otherwise, everything he had done would be for nothing!
"I don’t care who you are, you want to kill Ximen Shuang, you have to get my approval first!" A cold glint flashed in Ling Feng’s eyes.
Regarding Ximen Cheng’s words, Ling Feng didn’t doubt them much. After all, he was facing Ximen Yan, whose chances of lying were low. Moreover, Ling Feng could sense through Ximen Yan’s observation that Ximen Cheng was telling the truth.
However, Ling Feng didn’t directly tell Ximen Shuang about all this. If Ximen Shuang knew the undercover wasn’t Ximen Yan, it would definitely unsettle her. If Ximen Shuang slipped up at that time, making the real undercover alert, finding them would be much harder.
After this incident, many people on the airship disappeared under the pressure of the black hole, only a few experts managed to survive that period.
So the airship now felt very empty, and as the only one in the control room, Ximen Yu, had even more responsibility, he could only stay in the control room, managing the airship’s situation.
Two hours later, Ximen Shuang slowly woke up from her coma.
"Big Brother Lei, Big Brother Lei!" When she opened her eyes and didn’t see the familiar figure, she couldn’t help but cry out in alarm.
"I’m here!" Ling Feng’s gentle voice came, and then Ling Feng walked over, "Shuang Er, you’re awake?"
"Big Brother Lei! I’m so scared!" Ximen Shuang attempted to struggle to her feet, but her mind was in turmoil, and any slight movement made her feel a piercing pain mentally.
Ling Feng hurriedly came to her side to hold her down, "Your mind has been impacted by the Black Hole Enchanting Demon, all you need now is to rest well, don’t move around, don’t overthink!"
Ximen Shuang stared at Ling Feng, "Big Brother Lei, will... will you stay by my side? I feel scared if I can’t see you!"
Ling Feng sat on the bed, smiled, and said, "Alright, you just rest well. I’ll stay by your side until you’ve fully recovered, okay?"
As he spoke, Ling Feng reached out and gently stroked Ximen Shuang’s hair.
Ximen Shuang’s face relaxed, and she finally closed her eyes again, feeling a bit tired. Ling Feng was about to stand up but found Ximen Shuang gripping his hand tightly, making him smile wryly and continue sitting by her bedside.
When Ximen Shuang was surrounded by endless darkness, it was Ling Feng who stood in front of her the whole time. Thus, in Ximen Shuang’s heart, Ling Feng had become her mental support. Only with Ling Feng by her side would she feel calm and reassured.
Ling Feng, too, took this quiet opportunity to carefully consider the next steps and actions.
A few more hours later, Ximen Shuang opened her eyes again. This time she fully recovered, she noticed her hand still tightly gripping Ling Feng’s, while Ling Feng sat beside her with his eyes closed, resting. Her face blushed slightly, but she didn’t let go of that warm hand.
"You’re awake? Feeling better now?" Ling Feng could naturally sense Ximen Shuang’s change, he opened his eyes and asked.
"I still feel a bit dizzy," Ximen Shuang said softly, "I think I need more rest!"
Ling Feng’s lips curled into a smile, "Of course, you can rest more. But the people outside are worried sick; I think you’d better go out and say hello to your subordinates, reassure everyone!"
