The phone rang inappropriately at this moment.

Jiang Chen took out his phone, glanced at it, and pressed the answer button.

"Boss Du."

The other party should have sensed his pleasant mood through his tone, remained silent for a moment, and then spoke.

"I need to tell Mr. Jiang some bad news."

Jiang Chen remained calm, slowly retracting his smile, "Go ahead, I'm listening."

On the other end, the owner of the Peace Hotel's expression was uncertain. Although this work was beyond her career scope, she still managed to remain composed.

"The rescue operation failed."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen remained composed, calm and collected, and softly asked as if nothing happened, "Was the intel incorrect, or did they relocate early?"

"The intel I received was correct, the target Mr. Jiang is looking for is in Bamo, but when my people arrived, they were attacked by unknown forces, completely wiped out, with no survivors left."

This really wasn't good news.

No matter what he thought, at least on the surface, Jiang Chen remained indifferent, his face was one of unfathomable calmness.

"Xia Chuchen?"

"Unclear, we didn't find his body at the scene, it's likely he was taken by the attackers, unable to determine whether he's dead or alive. However, Cai Jian, who abducted him, and the informant were both killed."

The trafficker being killed confirmed one thing.

That the unknown force that suddenly emerged to sabotage the rescue plan and wiped out Du Enqin's men came from a third party.

So, a new problem arises.

A Xia Chuchen, an ordinary person, how could he cause such a commotion?

The force that completely wiped out Du Enqin's men must not be weak.

Moreover.

Such a coincidence?

Du Enqin had just locked in the location, dispatched her men, neither too early nor too late, coincidentally ambushed.

Jiang Chen's mind raced with thoughts, but he remained silent.

"Mr. Jiang, I'm sorry."

The phone conveyed Du Enqin's voice wrapped in apology,

"The one who should apologize is me, causing Boss Du to lose so many people."

At least be sensible.

Although the target wasn't achieved, and the person wasn't successfully rescued, the effort was made with due diligence, and a huge price was paid for it; to blame at this time would be unreasonable.

"I will continue to investigate, if I get any leads, I will inform Mr. Jiang as soon as possible."

Du Enqin exhibited the efficient style of a businessperson, unnecessary politeness was meaningless at this moment.

"Thank you, Boss Du."

Jiang Chen put down the phone.

"What happened?"

Pei Yunxi looked at him.

"Du Enqin's rescue operation failed, and all the people sent out were lost, none returned."

Although it had nothing to do with her, Pei Yunxi slightly frowned, "The traffickers are so powerful."

"The trafficker is dead too."

Jiang Chen looked at the coffee table with unfocused eyes, lost in thought.

The trafficker is dead too?

Pei Yunxi was surprised, unexpectedly, with her brow tightly knitted, stirring many hearts.

"Who did it?"

She asked straightforwardly.

"Still unknown."

"Didn't you say he is just an ordinary young man?"

Pei Yunxi was concise, with a keen sense of understanding, instantly perceiving the illogical point.

A gunfight in Myanmar isn't surprising, but there has to be some benefit or conflict involved, right?

An average, ordinary person, is he really that significant?

"Maybe I implicated him."

Jiang Chen said softly.

"They came for you?"

Pei Yunxi's eyes reflected thought, "But who knew about his connection with you..."

Pei Yunxi suddenly stopped.

An ordinary person, indeed not logical, but if placed on him, then everything becomes clear.

But the ones aware of this, knowing the trapped youth's relationship with him, were only the Allied Army and also the Peace Hotel owner, who was similarly commissioned.

"Did the Allies let the news leak?"

"Why aren't you suspecting Du Enqin?"

Pei Yunxi froze for a moment, frowning, "Didn't you say that her people suffered heavy losses?"

"So the problem wouldn't be on her side?"

Jiang Chen questioned back, his expression calm.

Pei Yunxi suddenly fell silent.

Not that she thought the other party was being overly suspicious.

Indeed.

Who said there's no possibility of a self-inflicted ruse?

And based on this line of thinking,

the female owner of the Peace Hotel has the largest "suspicion".

The Allied Army has had no news so far, she was the first to discover the information, and just happened to encounter an attack while sending people to rescue, so is it possible that someone was monitoring her movements?

"Looks like someone doesn't really welcome you."

No matter who exactly, but with the factory being bombed and the rescue operation disrupted, every sign points to one problem.

As Pei the goddess said.

Someone has strong hostility towards Boss Jiang.

What could be fortunate at this point is that Jiang Chen doesn't like to celebrate prematurely, so even if the plan has changed, there's no need to explain to Luo Peng, but there's no doubt that if he was only helping out of camaraderie before, now it has become a responsibility.

"Do you think there's a connection between the person who bombed your factory and the attacker who sabotaged the rescue?"

Jiang Chen asked, seemingly testing Pei Yunxi's mind.

Pei Yunxi was noncommittal, "Shouldn't you be more concerned about the young man's safety now?"

According to Du Enqin, everyone was killed, only Xia Chuchen is missing, his life or death unknown.

"Do you think he's dead or alive?"

Jiang Chen continued to ask.

Pei Yunxi didn't think about it, "I think he's still alive."

"Why?"

"If it was just to get a corpse, there's no need to go through so much trouble, and even less reason to take the body away."

After a pause, Pei Yunxi comforted, "So you don't need to worry right now."

Was someone actually worried?

Alright.

Men do like to put on a brave face, looking calm on the outside doesn't mean there's no turmoil within.

"Why not worry? Even if he's still alive, all the leads are cut off."

"Since they didn't take direct action, it shows that young man has some value in the eyes of the attackers. And that value can only come from you."

Pei Yunxi's voice was calm, "If I were the attacker, I wouldn't need you to act, I'd contact you."

Jiang Chen's eyes flickered, then he murmured.

"Not scientific."

"What's not scientific?"

"Isn't it said that women with big chests are brainless?"

Pei Yunxi was neither angry nor annoyed, as if she hadn't heard, but how could she have not.

She still sat calmly, unexpectedly replying, "Do you know what big means? That Boss Du, didn't you see clearly?"

Jiang Chen's expression didn't change, he immediately said, "I didn't look at all."

Sometimes hypocrisy can't be avoided.

He's not blind, had a few encounters, plus according to Boss Jiang's own words, they've had their interactions, how could he not know the female owner of Peace Hotel's body.

Comparatively, Pei Yunxi's size isn't as good as the other's, but how many women can reach that kind of grand scale?

For Du Enqin, Boss Jiang could only estimate, couldn't make an accurate judgment, but Pei Yunxi, he's measured... ahem, even handled.

Even if it's not enormous, it's not to be underestimated.

And some things aren't just better if bigger.

Anyway, Boss Jiang feels that their Eastern women's looks are quite perfect, like multi-talented warriors, without a shortcoming, even their endurance is only slightly inferior to that Japanese born Enchanting Demon.

Alright.

This doesn't sound appropriate, makes it seem like he's really a player.

In fact, although he's surrounded by rare earthly beauties, they're just Platonic friends, some with a little power even start their own harem in their workplace's beauty pageant, but Boss Jiang, with all his achievements, can't even organize a mahjong table, it's a bit embarrassing.

But people are different.

Pursuits differ.

The realms aren't the same.

"Anyone you suspect?"

Pei Yunxi casually diverted from the previous joke.

Jiang Chen leaned back on the sofa.

"Why waste brain cells. As you said, they'll come to us."
