I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World (Web Novel)
Chapter 973: Back to XinOn the third day, Kwai left the mansion without her soul.
There were no traces of scars on her body, her uniform was neat and tidy, and nothing seemed odd… but she felt something had shattered inside her.
Dignity? Pride?
Maybe both.
What happened over the last two days she swore she would not tell another soul.
If she saw Jiang Chen before, she would only be scared.
However now, she was not only psychologically afraid of the face and name, but also horrified to find out that she actually … doesn’t hate him.
At the beginning, she resisted Jiang Chen holding her hands.
But later, she was proactive and even began to call him “Master” …of course, it was forced.
Looking at the business card in her hand, she wanted to tear it apart, but in the end, she still resisted her impulse.
She remembered when she was lying on the carpet without any life inside her, Jiang Chen said with a smirk.
“…how should I say this, maybe I went a little overboard. I do feel bad. After all, I’m the man that took your first time, and I should have been gentle with you. Don’t overthink, I won’t apologize. But, I will give you a little compensation.”

“Haha, of course, if you have a need, you can also call this number.”
(What need!)
Hesitating for a moment, she put the business card into her bag.
Kwai took a deep breath to calm her chaotic mind. She took out her car key and left the place.
Standing by the window, Jiang Chen looked out at the exhaust that gradually dissipated, and his smirk remained.
Although he was going to return to Xin tomorrow, he had a feeling that they will meet again.
After the premiere of “Three Body” ended, the film was released to major theaters.
Just two days after, the box office of “Three Body” in the first weekend also came out. It was quite an impressive result to achieve a box office of 310 million yen with just 300 screens.
In contrast, the audience of science fiction works in the Nippon film market was quite limited. This point could be seen from “Star Wars 7” that scored 500 million dollars in the first week internationally lost to a game adaptation film “Monster Watch 2”, even the Hollywood special effects blockbuster didn’t manage to please the audience.
In any case, with this spectacular result, Director Wu could begin the production of “Three Body 2” with full confidence.
The sci-fi movie genre within Hua will once again begin its journey to prove its worth.
At the beginning of March, Jiang Chen boarded the plane back to Xin.
Originally, he planned to head to South Korea to discuss the power export business with Samsung Group. However, the news from the European side forced him to temporarily change his plan and return to Xin in advance.
When he got off the plane at Coro, Ayesha was already waiting for him in the special tunnel. When she saw Jiang Chen, she rushed to him and wrapped her arms around his neck.
“Did you miss me?” Looking at the sapphire-like pupils, Jiang Chen smiled and touched Ayesha’s hair.
Ayesha nodded hard, didn’t talk, and just buried her head into his shoulders in joy.
“Okay, come down now, don’t you see Jiang Chen is very troubled?” In high heels, Xia Shiyu sighed, patted Ayesha’s back, and then looked at Jiang Chen with some resentment, “It has almost been half a month and you are finally back.”
“Ahem, a busy schedule.” Jiang Chen scratched his cheek awkwardly.
Of course, he wouldn’t say that he actually finished all his work three days ago, but for some reason he only came back three days later.
“Your relationships are so good, count me in too?” Natasha, who had a smug look on her, walked over. She put her hands lazily behind her head. From her beach-style T-shirt, she should be in Xin for vacation.
Two sharp sights locked onto her immediately.
Natasha hurriedly waved to the two women and laughed heartily. “I am just kidding, don’t take it seriously.”
“…just a joke?” Xia Shiyu said suspiciously.
“Other women can, but she… gives me a bad feeling,” Still hanging onto Jiang Chen, Ayesha said.
They did not stay at the airport for long. With the baggage given to the accompanying bodyguards, Jiang Chen took the girls with him. Because of the limited seating of the Lamborghini, his preferred ride became the custom-designed Luer.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBecause the model wouldn’t be released to the market, this car didn’t have an accurate price tag. However, from the titanium alloy shell and the high-power electric engine, the cost of this car was than 10 million dollars.
After getting into the car, Jiang Chen got behind the steering wheel and drove onto the road.
Judging from the streets on both sides, the city had already taken shape as a cosmopolitan. Travellers from all over the world strolled on the streets. With the sea breeze blowing from the western Pacific Ocean, Jiang Chen looked at Natasha, who was sitting with Ayesha in the back through the mirror and asked casually.
“Hmm, are you working for the Russian KGB or for the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs? I always feel that your work boundaries are getting more and more blurred. Did you go back to deal with work some time ago? If I didn’t guess wrong, was your destination Europe?”
“Accurately speaking, it is the Russian-Ukrainian border. But unlike before, the main content of my work is planning. You know, the situation in Europe is quite different now. From the Baltic countries to the Black Sea border in Romania, deployment of troops seems to be increasing…”
“You haven’t answered my previous question yet.” Jiang Chen smiled.
“Ummm… well.” Natasha’s expression was awkward. She hesitated for a while and answered the question. “My current status is a bit subtle. On the one hand, my position has indeed changed from the Russian Federal Intelligence Agency to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. However, I still haven’t pulled out of Ukrainian affairs, but just retreated from field work to work behind the scene. It’s very troublesome to explain. You are not a person in our system. It’s hard to understand all this mess.”
Natasha then paused and said seriously.
“But you can be rest assured that when I come to Xin, I absolutely have no intention to inquire about your intelligence. Our country attaches great importance to our friendly cooperation with you…”
“That’s enough,” Jiang Chen interrupted her with a smile, “If I didn’t believe this, I wouldn’t let you stay in my house.”
Russia is not stupid. They know Ayesha, the senior official of the Xin National Intelligence Agency, stayed with him, how could they plant an agent in to spy on him? Not to mention that he has never had the habit of placing confidential documents in his own home. The only place used for office work can only be accessed after obtaining permission.
Natasha gratefully smiled at Jiang Chen, but soon she pouted in dissatisfaction.
She noticed that Jiang Chen used the word “let you stay”.
Ayesha, beside her, smirked.
Perhaps because they were “natural enemies”, every time she sees Natasha being displeased, she feels an odd sense of pleasure.
