Chapter 2402 - A Plea for Help from the Seaside

Qiao Liancheng nodded and did not refuse.

After all, it's just a dog, and a real dog at that, not one of those mechanical dogs with cameras, so he doesn't care.

Everyone arrived, and we began to eat.

After dinner, Jiang Wan was pulled into the room by Qiao Ya.

Qiao Ya then told Jiang Wan what Qiao Liancheng had told her that day, and then scratched her head, asking in a flustered manner:

"What to do now?"

"I don't know what Grandpa wants to do either, and I don't dare to ask. If Haijing and I have just started to get to know each other, wouldn't Grandpa's interference push him away?"

Jiang Wan asked, puzzled, "When you decided to be with Haijing, didn't you think about these things?"

Qiao Ya replied, "Of course I thought of that. I know that if I were with Haijing, there would definitely be resistance and obstruction from all sides."

"But I still want to be with him. I'm ready to fight the whole world."

Jiang Wan smiled and said, "If that's the case, then why are you still afraid to see Grandpa?"

Qiao Ya was stunned for a moment, and after a while, she said in a low voice, "I'm not afraid to see Grandpa, I'm worried that if Grandpa doesn't agree, and he has another relapse, what will I do?"

"I was caught in a dilemma."

“What should I do if Grandpa tells me that he will kill himself if I don’t break up with him?”

"Of course, more importantly, I can't be separated from the sea view. I love the sea view. The problem is that our relationship hasn't naturally progressed and stabilized yet."

"If we are separated due to external obstacles, wouldn't I feel very wronged and at a great loss?"

Jiang Wan understood that Qiao Ya didn't want to face all of this, but rather he was afraid that it would have a negative impact on him if it happened at the wrong time.

She sighed softly, patted Qiao Ya on the shoulder and said, "You must remember, a relationship may go through many ups and downs, but if it can be easily broken up, then it is not a true relationship."

"If you can't wholeheartedly maintain him, and the other person ignores you, there's no need to continue this relationship."

"As for the opposition from family members..."

"It's normal for them to object. If they object, you need to show each other sincerity."

“You can treat this as a way to advance your relationship. There’s no need to panic or be afraid before you’ve even faced it.”

"Besides, your grandfather loves you very much. If he had seen Hai Jing and knew what kind of person he was, he would probably like him too."

"Perhaps Haijing isn't good at winning girls' hearts or doing housework, but he's good at being considerate. Even if he isn't, we can teach him slowly."

"As long as he's not the kind of man who's fickle and easily finds other women, I think it's worth trying to like and get to know him."

Qiao Ya's eyes lit up when Jiang Wan said that.

She suddenly rushed over and hugged Jiang Wan, saying happily, "Sister-in-law, you're the best. Don't worry, I will definitely work very, very hard."

Upon hearing the words "sister-in-law," Jiang Wan's body stiffened, and her mouth twitched a few times.

She just couldn't understand where this woman got her so friendly from. They weren't even officially dating yet, and she was already calling her "sister-in-law."

She couldn't help but think of the first time she met Qiao Ya, and how aloof and unapproachable he seemed.

Even when she looked at Jiang Wan back then, her gaze was arrogant and domineering.

It's as if she's telling the whole world: I am the queen, and you are all ants.

But now, this woman has actually fallen for love and can even call her "sister-in-law" on her own initiative.

This world is truly amazing.

Qiao Ya happily went to the computer to send an email. Seeing her leave, Qiao Liancheng came over, sat down beside her, and asked:

"How was your day?"

Jiang Wan shook her head: "I went to the kindergarten today. Adults are not allowed to enter unless they have children."

"Li Chengze tried many methods but failed to get in. It's probably because Li Chengze led people to dig up so many corpses in the elementary school yesterday, which alerted the man surnamed Cui."

"They are keeping a close watch on Li Chengze today."

"Li Chengze led me around the kindergarten for half a day, but we just didn't go in."

"Anyway, we came back without finding anything."

"Li Chengze said that the Cui family is like a frightened bird these days, so let's calm things down for now and continue when things have calmed down in a couple of days."

Qiao Liancheng thought for a moment and asked, "So, to what extent do you plan to proceed?"

Jiang Wan shook her head: "I don't know, but we can't let the Cui family have it easy."

The couple were chatting here.

Meanwhile, at the Li family villa, the heads of the three families gathered together, along with Li Chengze and Li Xiuying.

The Jin family patriarch asked Li Xingchen, "In the past, when you were selecting the next successor of the Li family, I heard that most of the tasks you assigned were related to China."

"Judging by the time, they should all be back by now, right?"

Li Xingchen was at a loss when he talked about this. He poured himself a cup of tea, drank it, and calmed himself down before saying:

"I'm back, but the frustrating thing is that I didn't complete a single task."

"Now China has strengthened security and is keeping a very close eye on people from abroad entering the country."

"Several times when they were about to take action, they were invited to the police station for a chat."

“One child came home claiming that he gets a headache whenever he hears the word ‘police.’”

He paused, then added, "So, I'm going to issue the mission a second time."

"This time, the country carrying out the mission is far from China; we've chosen a different country."

The head of the Jin family paused for a moment and then said, "How about we switch to Japan?"

Li Xingchen's eyes lit up instantly upon hearing this.

He nodded and said, "That's a good idea. Tomorrow I'll change the country where the mission will be carried out to Japan."

He paused, then added, "But we can't let the people at the US military base know about this."

The head of the Jin family nodded and gave him a thumbs-up in agreement, meaning that this was the right thing to do!

Having said all that about the trivial matters, let's get to the main topic.

The head of the Han family sat there smoking, and said dejectedly, "My child and I are both rather conservative people."

"Originally, I didn't intend to offend the people at the US military base, but this incident has exceeded our expectations. That information absolutely cannot be handed over to the Japanese."

Li Xingchen rubbed his temples and turned to Li Chengze, asking, "Give me some assurance, have you seen those documents?"

Li Chengze pursed his lips and said, "The second time we sent people down, they wiped out the mutated creatures below. After opening the door to that room, some of the documents were taken out."

“I looked at those documents and experimental records.”

He paused for a moment, seemingly unable to continue, and when he spoke again, his voice trembled and choked with emotion.
