Madame is Pretending to be an Academic Slacker Again!-Chapter 370: Her Man Is a Land Baron
When questioned by Nalan Ye Jue, the chairman broke into cold sweats: "This is a serious accusation, tarnishing national honor. It’s despicable, they must be thrown into jail. I’ll deal with them right now!"
Nalan Ye Jue didn’t say anything, he just glanced at Qin Xin: "What does the young lady think?"
Qin Xin frowned and murmured, "Hmm."
Their fates were decided.
The legs of the two gatekeepers went weak, never imagining that playing cards during working hours and casually teasing a world champion would result in such severe punishment.
They wanted to beg for mercy, but Nalan Ye Jue, along with Qin Xin, had already entered the racetrack.
Only the chairman was left directing the security to catch them.
"You fools, do you know who you’ve offended? How dare you speak against Xihe? And in front of the Young Master? Xihe won glory for the nation, the Young Master is very patriotic, don’t you know?!"
Not far away.
Qin Xin’s lips twitched: "..."
Did he punish these people because of patriotism?
However, she wanted to ask another question: "Are you the landlord of this land?"
Nalan Ye Jue chuckled softly: "Hmm. The racetrack was built on my turf. If I don’t rent it to them, they’ll have to pack up and leave, losing everything."
That’s why the racetrack’s chairman, upon hearing his voice, would scramble out of bed, pants forgotten.
Qin Xin was pensive: "How much land does the Nalan Family own in the Imperial City?"
Nalan Ye Jue pondered lightly: "Too much to count."
Then he casually added: "Actually, it’s not that much, just over half of the Imperial City."
Qin Xin: "..."
Owning over half of the Imperial City, in ancient times, wouldn’t that make you a duke of an outside surname?
Unexpectedly, Nalan Ye Jue continued: "The Nalan Family’s main power is still along the coast between the Imperial City and Qingcheng. That entire stretch is ours."
Coastal?
The most prosperous area!
This is beyond what the word ’duke’ can describe; it’s more like an emperor holding half a kingdom.
Qin Xin felt a bit breathless: "Why didn’t you say so earlier..."
The man chuckled softly: "Would you have married me sooner if I had?"
Qin Xin was at a loss again: "..."
If she had known earlier, she wouldn’t have married him.
Marrying into such a powerful family, the pressure is immense.
Divorce would be difficult in the future.
Nalan Ye Jue stopped teasing her further, seeing her face redden.
He pointed towards the parking lot: "Are you looking for your No. 99 car, Miss Xihe?"
Qin Xin: "..."
Damn it, the man’s serious tone made her embarrassed to blush.
Qin Xin did not go towards the No. 99 car.
Instead, she turned towards A Continent’s No. 1 car.
She used her phone’s flashlight function to shine on the No. 1 car’s steering wheel.
Different from what she saw during the day, the steering wheel was clean, with nothing on it.
Strange. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
Even if she saw incorrectly, she couldn’t mistake nothing for something, at most, the details of the symbol would differ.
Qin Xin carefully inspected the car inside and out, confirming there was no wing symbol.
Qin Xin felt increasingly heavy-hearted.
If she could find that symbol, she might attribute it to coincidence or something else.
But now, the symbol was completely removed, what does that imply?
It means someone doesn’t want her to find it, to discover, to compare, to investigate further.
Someone was already aware of her movements!
Qin Xin suddenly looked around.
But, the entire racetrack was vast and empty, pitch dark, with not a soul in sight.
She had no idea who could have tampered with the symbol.
It was as if an invisible hand was preventing her from uncovering more truth.
