But how could Madam Cui not understand him?
As soon as she heard him ask that, she knew he was likely unhappy.
"I won’t allow you to get angry at Xiao Jiang," she glared at him and said, "The child hasn’t asked anything of us at all."
"Probably not the first time we met, but once familiar, who knows."
"Don’t judge Xiao Jiang by the standards you use for others. I can see that the child isn’t scheming. Do you know who her fiancé is?"
"Eighteen, and engaged?"
"What’s wrong with that, not allowed?" Madam Cui cast a sidelong glance at him and said, "I married you when I was seventeen."
"Fine, fine, I’m not saying it’s not allowed." Commander Cui chuckled, "I see you’ve been protective of this young girl, do you really think so highly of her?"
"Indeed, I do. What was I saying just now?" ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
"About her fiancé."
"Right, her fiancé is Meng Donghai’s grandson. I heard he’s been dispatched to Ke Ku Li recently?"
Commander Cui was taken aback, "Meng Donghai’s grandson? Meng Xinian?"
"Yes, that’s what he’s called."
"The girl who came is Meng Xinian’s fiancée?"
Commander Cui frowned slightly. He had always been focused on the Alliance and rarely listened to outside rumors, so even though the stories of Meng Xinian and Jiang Xiao had spread throughout the Capital, he hadn’t paid attention.
Although Jiang Xiao was famous in the cultural and art circles, she hadn’t reached the level that Commander Cui would pay attention to. After all, Commander Cui wasn’t much into those circles, and the magazines and newspapers he usually read were all about military and national affairs.
He wouldn’t have necessarily heard about Meng Xinian. With so many people in the Alliance, a Great Officer, he couldn’t remember them all, not to mention Meng Xinian had only been transferred to Anbu Town recently, previously being in City M, far from the Capital.
The thing that made Commander Cui aware of him was the title of King of Elites.
"Yes, I’ve never met Meng Donghai’s grandson, have you?"
"Haven’t." Commander Cui shook his head and said, "But I’ve seen his ID photo."
The Eight Elites sent to Ke Ku Li all had a file attached, including ID photos, which he had browsed through.
"How does he look?"
"Hmm, thick eyebrows and bright eyes, not bad-looking, the type young girls usually like."
"Xiao Jiang must have good taste," Madam Cui said, "Old Sister Wei has been going on about how great her grandson is. I almost saw Xiao Jiang moved to tears by her words. In her view, Meng Xinian is definitely not worse than the Wei family grandson."
"Is she here asking you to pull some strings to get Meng Xinian back?"
Commander Cui thought of this possibility. freēwebnovel.com
When he first saw that list, he didn’t think much of it, only feeling that sending one of the Alliance’s elite kings out seemed a bit wasteful.
But the people below said they all volunteered to go, so he didn’t stop it.
Furthermore, elite kings and regular team members are all members of the Alliance, all serving the Alliance, and he couldn’t engage in favoritism, thinking someone shouldn’t go and pulling them out.
With this thinking, he had no objections.
But if Jiang Xiao wanted to use the back door to get him to bring Meng Xinian back, he would really be angry.
Once they’ve gone out, it’s their duty, their mission, how could there be any special treatment?
If Meng Xinian were that kind of person, he’d have to wonder if this person was cowardly and opportunistic, even using his fiancée.
Moreover, going through his wife’s connections, did he not know her health was poor?
