Huo Yunshen also ordered a handful of his JS mercenaries to go and help Helian Qingyu.
“Can Qingyu make it back in time for the meeting?” Xu Xiyan asked.
Since the border was far from Lin City, Xu Xiyan was worried that Helian QIngyu might not be able to attend the meeting. The parliament could take him out of the picture if he cannot participate.
“We have to take care of the war first. Take care of yourself. I’ve asked Ye Xun to help look after Ying Bao,” Huo Yunshen said.
“Okay. Please be careful.”
“I will.”
After they hung up, Xu Xiyan could feel her heart tightening up.
People who had powers in the country were trying to take over while Helian Wei was sick.
Estan was in a state where they had to be wary of enemies from outside and troublemakers on the inside.
Xu XIyan went back to her mother’s room on the 8th floor.
“Yanyan,” Jing Ruyue said when she saw her daughter coming in. “Help me dress up, I need to meet someone.”
Xu Xiyan could not guess who her mother wanted to meet, but after staring at her mother for a few seconds, she nodded.
“Okay, one minute.”
Xu Xiyan found her mother a set of clean clothes and helped her put on some light makeup.
“All done.”
Both of them went to Xu Xiyan’s car, and Xu Xiyan drove while her mother pointed out the directions. They finally stopped in front of the Guangming Residence.
Xu XIyan could not hide her surprise as she knew it was the Secretary of State’s residence.
She followed her mother down from the car and rang the doorbell. A guard came out not long after.
“I’m looking for Mr. Ouyang, could you please…”
But before Jing Ruyue could even finish her sentence, the guard shook his head.
“My apologies, madam, but he’s not home.”
Ouyang Qing had ordered his guard to not allow any visitors.
He did not want to participate in the fight over power and decided to stay at home.
Jing Ruyue also knew of Ouyang Qing’s temperament. There was no way that Ouyang Qing would allow anyone who wanted to pull him to their side to visit him.
“Let’s go back,” Jing Ruyue said.
“Mum, wait, someone will come and get us in.”
Xu Xiyan thought of a way and had her mother wait.
Jing Ruyue was confused. She had no idea what trick Xu Xiyan had up her sleeves until a young girl came out.
She ran towards the gate and opened it.
But to her disappointment, only two beautiful women were standing outside, and Jun Yan was nowhere to be found.
“Nice to meet you, Miss Fefei. I’m the one who messaged you,” Xu Xiyan greeted.
“Who are you?” Ouyang Feifei asked as she scanned Xu Xiyan up and down. She felt like she had met Xu Xiyan before but could not tell where.
“I’m Jun Yan’s junior. He was the one who told me to message you.”
“I see!’ Ouyang Feifei said excitedly as soon as she heard Jun Yan’s name. “Do you need anything.”
“It’s like this…”
