Chapter 106 Should I take a video call or come to you in person?
"Hello, miss, may I ask your date of birth?"
With her stunningly beautiful face, Jiang Qin had indeed seen many people scrutinize her since she was a child, but this was truly the first time she had ever encountered someone asking for her birthdate right off the bat.
Moreover, the man who first stared at her, although well-maintained, gave her the impression that he was probably around fifty years old.
Realizing this, Jiang Qin couldn't help but feel a little disgusted.
This is the embassy, surrounded by heavily armed Chinese soldiers, so Jiang Qin is naturally not afraid that a social incident like the one at the barbecue stall might happen here.
Ignoring her, Jiang Qin sent a message to Wang Ma and then walked away.
Seeing this, the man who was sent over to ask questions naturally realized that Jiang Qin didn't want to talk to him.
After all, he was in his twenties, so he naturally knew that asking that question was truly offensive, and besides, this was the embassy, and if he chased after them any further, he would probably be kicked out.
She had no choice but to return to Li Zhiyuan's side. "Chairman Li, that young lady is unwilling to talk and has avoided us."
Li Zhiyuan looked at Jiang Qin again, but this time the sharpness in his gaze was noticeably less.
The subordinate, not hearing a reply, became somewhat nervous and whispered, "Chairman Li, shall I go and ask again?"
As he spoke, he was about to walk towards Jiang Qin, who was still in line.
Li Zhiyuan frowned, raised his hand and pulled the man back. The force was so great that the young subordinate winced in pain.
"No need," Li Zhiyuan said calmly.
The young man felt a wave of relief wash over him.
It seems he was overthinking it; he was probably just curious because the young lady looked like the eldest young lady.
However, the next moment, Li Zhiyuan said in an unquestionable tone.
"Wait until she finishes her business later, then follow her closely, keeping a safe distance so you don't get spotted."
The man's eyes widened. Huh?
Jiang Qin had already put the incident she had just encountered behind her back.
While waiting in line, I habitually checked the documents I had brought.
Standing in line like this is boring, so Jiang Qin continued to busy herself with things about her future life abroad.
And so, after more than an hour, it was finally my turn in line.
Fortunately, everything went smoothly from then on. All I had to do was wait for time to pass before paying the fees and getting the marriage certificate.
Jiang Qin glanced at the time; it was earlier than she had expected.
Without hesitation, Jiang Qin went out, hailed a taxi, and headed to the temple.
Jiang Qin knew better than anyone how smart Huo Sili was; if he doubted her again, things would get complicated.
Fortunately, there were no security cameras in the temple.
When Jiang Qin arrived at the temple, she went inside and offered her prayers, which made an impression on the monks around her.
However, he wasn't praying for a reconciliation with Horst, but rather for the old lady's full recovery, for his own smooth travel abroad, and for her and his child's future safety.
After all that was over, Jiang Qin actually went to the place where she ate vegetarian food.
The vegetarian meal was light but not unpalatable; on the contrary, it suited Jiang Qin's taste at the moment.
Jiang Qin also took photos to keep as evidence, so that she could prove that she had really been there when needed.
After taking the photos, Jiang Qin focused on eating. However, while she was eating and spacing out, she suddenly noticed a somewhat familiar figure out of the corner of her eye, and her brows furrowed immediately.
Turning around, I realized I wasn't mistaken; they were the two men I'd seen at the embassy earlier!
Being followed has never been a good thing, especially by a man.
However, after looking around, Jiang Qin's heart, which had been pounding, gradually calmed down a bit.
There were many monks around who were eating.
Putting everything else aside, I do feel safe.
But just because it happened now doesn't mean it will happen later. Jiang Qin contacted Uncle Yang immediately and asked him to drive over and pick her up.
Uncle Yang replied quickly, "Yes, madam, I'll be right there!"
When Uncle Yang doesn't have any missions, he'll wander around the area where Jiang Qin and Huo Sili are active, parking his car nearby. After all, Kyoto is notorious for traffic jams, so he can be there for them as quickly as possible if needed.
Less than ten minutes after the message was sent, Uncle Yang sent another message, saying he was at the door.
Jiang Qin asked Uncle Yang to come in directly and described the route. Uncle Yang was a retired soldier with excellent comprehension skills and found it quickly.
"Madam!" Among a pile of monks' robes, Jiang Qin was extremely eye-catching.
Uncle Yang spotted Jiang Qin at a glance and quickly walked over. But as soon as he sat down, he noticed someone staring at him out of the corner of his eye. He stared and then paused, "Chairman Li?"
Jiang Qin paused in her eating. "Chairman Li?"
She said she had seen him at the embassy before, and felt like she had seen him somewhere before.
It turned out to be the information about Li Xueqian that Su Lejia had sent her before, and Li Xueqian's father was Li Zhiyuan.
So what does this mean? The daughter is a mistress, and the father still wants to help his mistress daughter deal with her?
Jiang Qin found it absurd, but after taking out her phone and checking carefully, she found that she was not mistaken. The man who had been staring at her earlier was indeed Li Xueqian's father, Li Zhiyuan, the current chairman of Xingwen Entertainment Group.
Just then, Li Zhiyuan responded to Uncle Yang, "You are... Captain Yang?"
Jiang Qin's brows furrowed even more deeply.
About half an hour later, Jiang Qin's brows relaxed.
It turns out that it was an international economic conference many years ago. At that time, Yang Sheng was still serving in the army and was sent by his superiors to protect domestic entrepreneurs. At that time, Li Zhiyuan was indeed assassinated.
In the critical moment, it was Yang Sheng who saved Li Zhiyuan.
That's how the two met.
"So, who is this?" Li Zhiyuan tried to find a breakthrough to get information about Jiang Qin from Uncle Yang.
“This…” However, Uncle Yang’s words were cut short.
Huo Sili and Jiang Qin are secretly married, so they naturally cannot expose their relationship to the public.
After listening to the two talk so much and knowing that this man was Li Xueqian's father, Jiang Qin naturally realized that she was probably overthinking things. She guessed that the man was just curious and followed her because she looked like Li Xueqian.
However, no one present said anything, but Li Zhiyuan deduced it.
Just as I was about to say something, a bell rang.
Jiang Qin took out her phone and frowned.
At the same time, Horst's WeChat message came in:
Should I take a video call, or should I come to you in person?
