The CEO's Woman

Chapter 423 Conquer the World

"So, what will happen to Li Qiang now?" Fu Jin asked while they were looking at Li Qiang who was lying peacefully behind the glass window.

"If you are asking me... whether I have forgiven him or not, then the answer is no." Jiang Yue said. "I will talk to him once he wakes up." She then stared at the man who was said to resemble her father. The argument earlier with her mother made Jiang Yue agitated.

It would be a lie if she said that she was not affected by her mother’s cowardice. In fact, she hated it. She hated how her mother created a mess, then ran away in hope to live a peaceful life. However, at one point, she also understood her actions.

She was a mother. And just like every mother, Wang Ruo did her best to protect her. However, for Jiang Yue, her mother took the wrong approach to protect her. She withheld important information, which could have saved Jiang Yue’s life. That alone was something that was already very wrong.

Jiang Yue felt Fu Jin squeeze her hands and she immediately turned her head towards him, meeting his gentle gaze. She was certain that the man knew what she was feeling right now. However, he chose not to say anything and tried to ease her worries with his actions.

She gave him a half-hearted smile before she hooped her arms towards him. She then leaned on his shoulder and closed her eyes. After this, she would face another deadly enemy. The only thing that was giving Jiang Yue strength at that moment was the fact that Fu Jin was with her.

Without this man, Jiang Yue could not imagine the mess that she would be in at that time. "I want to announce our marriage... soon." She softly said.

"However, I am afraid that they will do something horrible to you." She added. Jiang Yue shamelessly accepted that right now, the attention that her persona had was too much. Her talents and skills were something that her enemies should be aware of.

Because of that, there was a big possibility that they would not let go of her easily. The person who she was supposed to marry might scheme to kill Fu Jin. "I want to end the Vercello Family." She declared after a couple of minutes of silence. "Are you with me on this?"

"Of course!" Fu Jin answered without batting an eyelid. Jiang Yue could tell him that she wanted to conquer the world and Fu Jin would still support her. She could say that she wanted to kill all her enemies and he would be there, making sure that the bodies were all buried. She could say that she wanted to burn this world and he would be there to make sure that she did not burn herself in the process.

Fu Jin then felt Jiang Yue put on the ring on his finger. "This is yours, my King." He heard her mutter before he felt her hot lips on his neck.

After the couple spent some time with Li Qiang, they went to Wang Ruo to tell her not to leave this place. Of course, both of them knew that the possibility of her leaving was bigger than her listening to their words.

Because of that, Jiang Yue also told her that it’s okay if she left as long as she informed her about that because she would always worry about her mother’s safety. Her enemies knew that she was alive so they might not stop looking for ways to entrap her. They also asked for Wang Ruo’s evidence that would point out the person who had made the order.

Jiang Yue was actually surprised that her mother was able to give her a lot of proof. Apparently, the Vercello Family was making potent drugs and was using an orphanage to test them on the children living there. They were also using a lot of hospitals to sell their products. She was able to give them a proof about the officials and other prominent families in Emerald City that had been backing those operations for years.

But she was not able to give Jiang Yue something that would prove the Vercello Family’s involvement in those operations. It was like... everyone knew that they were involved but no one could actually prove it.

"One more thing." Wang Ruo said defeat was apparent in her eyes. "Blake Lee... is someone from the Vercello Family."

Jiang Yue’s eyes widened, her mouth agape from her mother’s explosive words.

"He chose to leave the family and become my student." Wang Ruo continued. "When he disappeared, I bet that was because the Vercello Family got a hold of his skills and wanted him back. If he is smart, then he should be with your father right now."

"I’m sure you know that he was last seen in M country. If my guess is right, he should have been there to meet with your father." She ended her sentence as she stared outside the window. "I will leave once Li Qiang wakes up."
