Chapter 2293 Life is a play, it all depends on who can act

Chapter 2293

She didn't answer immediately, but swirled the red wine in the goblet and took a sip.

Then he said elegantly, "Mr. Ariel, your question is a bit abrupt."

"I'm just acting as a manager for a few council members, helping them manage their assets and investing in some businesses. Is this something I can talk about?"

Her demeanor was too natural and her aura too powerful.

Ariel and Li Xingchen were both shocked.

After a while, Li Xingchen came back to his senses and winked at Ariel.

Ariel smiled and said, "Ma'am, you're right. Although we are council members, we all have our own business. Not everyone is willing to tell others about the people they work with."

"But how are you going to prove your identity?"

Li Xingchen was listening quietly beside her, without saying a word, but his sharp eyes kept wandering around Jiang Wan's face, as if he wanted to find her flaws.

Jiang Wan put down the wine glass in his hand, raised his eyebrows and looked at Ariel, saying impatiently:

"Why should I prove my identity to you?"

Then she looked at Li Xingchen and asked, "Is this why you called me here?"

"Is it a suspicion or an insult to me?"

After a pause, he said domineeringly: "I don't need to prove my identity to any of you. I came to this country to invest and build a factory, which is enough to prove my strength."

"As for other aspects, you are not qualified to know too much."

"There's an old Chinese saying that I really like: curiosity kills the cat. I'd like to share that with you as well."

After saying that, Jiang Wan stood up and said somewhat unhappily, "It seems that Mr. Li's sincerity only extends to this point. There's really no need for us to cooperate."

"We've finished our meal. If there's nothing else, we'll take our leave."

After saying that, he walked out without looking back.

Qiao Liancheng and Haijing followed behind him, looking calm and composed.

However, the aura of the three people was so strong that the other people in the room couldn't help but frown.

Even a shrewd person like Li Xingchen would be shocked by the aura of these three people.

Because Qiao Liancheng and Haijing both came from the battlefield, the evil aura on him definitely could not be removed with just a few words.

Li Xingchen naturally sensed the murderous aura from them. In the past, the two of them had restrained themselves and would not release this murderous aura.

It’s different now. Although they are not sure whether Jiang Wan’s actions can suppress them, they cannot lose in aura.

It’s no wonder that their subconscious behavior actually helped Jiang Wan at this moment.

Li Xingchen opened his mouth to say something, but seeing Jiang Wan's resolute back as she left, he became speechless.

In the end, I didn't say anything else and could only let them leave.

Li Chengze and Han Ying were both confused, wondering: What did they talk about? It seemed like they didn't talk about anything at all, just a few words and then it fell apart.

So the Patriarch is planning to kill someone? That's why there's no need to talk any further!

Han Ying looked at Li Chengze for help, but Li Chengze pursed his lips and remained silent.

But those flickering eyes revealed the uneasiness in his heart.

At this time, Li Xingchen looked at Ariel and said, "Mr. Ariel, thank you this time!"

Ariel stood up and waved his hand.

"No need to thank me, that lady just now didn't look like a liar."

"In fact, the list of those hundreds of councillors has been published in the media. It's not difficult to check if you want to."

"If that woman was a liar, she would have definitely mentioned a name or two to use."

"But she didn't say a single word, and judging by her behavior, she probably wouldn't bother to lie."

Li Xingchen nodded and said, "I felt the same way, that's why I didn't order anyone to keep them."

At this time, Han Ying and Li Chengze suddenly realized that the so-called Senator Ariel was fake and was brought in by Li Xingchen to test Rose.

Han Ying and Li Chengze looked at each other and saw shock and helplessness in each other's eyes.

But I did learn a new trick from this old guy Li Xingchen.

Ariel left quickly, and Li Chengze asked, "Father, what are you going to do about Rose?"

"Do you want to continue investigating? Or should you kill her?"

Li Chengze asked this deliberately, although he was a little nervous when he said this, fearing that his father would really order someone to kill.

Fortunately, after he asked this question, Li Xingchen waved his hand and said:

"From the current perspective, the identity of this Rose should be true."

"I sent someone to check, and Rose is indeed living in the United States."

"It's also true that there's a company behind her and she's involved with the councillor, so there's no need to investigate further."

"Our Seven Star Group is in such an awkward situation now. If we want to expand internationally, we have to cooperate with the United States."

"Rose's appearance has given us the best channel. If we can connect with her and cooperate with the company behind her, it will be very beneficial to us."

After a pause, his eyes fell on Li Chengze.

"Be nicer to Rose. If you can really marry her, you will be a hero to our Seven Star Group!"

Li Chengze breathed a sigh of relief and quickly nodded in agreement, "Father is right, I know what to do!"

Han Ying pursed her lips beside him, feeling mixed emotions.

She never expected it.

Rose, a Chinese spy, has actually gone to such lengths that she has even infiltrated the U.S. Congress.

At this moment, she suddenly admired Rose.

What they didn't know was that after leaving the Li family's manor, the Ms. Rose they were talking about had just gotten into the car and had no time to catch her breath before Jiang Wan collapsed into Qiao Liancheng's arms like water.

I didn't even have the energy to say a word.

When they drove back home, Jiang Wan couldn't get out of the car.

After getting out of the car, Qiao Liancheng carried her directly into the house.

Jiang Wan breathed a sigh of relief only after she was sure she was sitting in the living room and there were no more threats around.

She patted her pounding heart and said, "Oh my god, I almost peed myself!"

Seeing her exaggerated look, Qiao Liancheng couldn't help laughing out loud.

Haijing also came over and said, "When I heard that a congressman was coming, I was also shocked. This is really a lie that will be exposed at any time if you tell it too much."

At this time, Jiang Wan said something shocking.

She said, "Now I understand. If I want to be a qualified spy, I must first learn to lie and then turn lies into truth."

Qiao Liancheng smiled helplessly and squatted beside her to rub her leg muscles.

He asked soothingly, "Is your leg cramped?"

Jiang Wan shook her head. "No, I was just so frightened when I saw that councilman and heard what Li Xingchen said."

"Is that Ariel a real council member? I've actually scanned through hundreds of council lists, but there doesn't seem to be anyone named Ariel."

Qiao Liancheng was silent for a moment and said, "I don't think it's true."

Jiang Wan looked at him suspiciously: "Why do you say that? Explain it to me!"
