Chapter 865: American Doomsday A New Breed of Soldier Brought About by a Microwave Donkey
Zi Liang had just arrived at the outer courtyard's Moon Cave Gate when she ran into Irina, who was hurrying along with her head lowered. The two of them almost collided.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Miss Irina. It's my fault for not watching where I was going. Please forgive me, don't take it to heart." Zilan apologized repeatedly after getting a clear look at who the other person was.
"You're in such a hurry, is there something urgent?" Irina asked calmly, of course she wouldn't treat him like some ordinary servant.
"The master wants me to call Mu Da Shao Ye and says there's something important to discuss." Zi Ling replied truthfully.
"Never mind, it's nothing to do with you. I was just lost in thought and didn't watch where I was going. Hurry up and go, don't delay the boss's business." Irina smiled casually and waved her hand, then continued walking towards the Xinhua Building hall at a leisurely pace.
Zi Ling spat out a small pink tongue at Irina's back and immediately turned around to run quickly out of the Moon Cave Gate.
Last night, Mu Hai Lin rushed back to Tangjia Fort from Xianyang County overnight, specifically to apologize to the Tang family for his wrongdoing. With the tacit consent of the Mu family, this matter had already spread throughout the fort by dawn.
What's even more unexpected is that the eldest young lady and second young master of the Mu family were heavily punished by the head of the Mu family, and are still lying in the courtyard where the wounded soldiers live. Such a family scandal, the Mu family people actually didn't cover it up at all, and made a big fuss about it so that everyone knows.
Irina sat alone in her room all night because of her worries, so she didn't know beforehand.
When I heard about this in the morning, I still didn't quite believe it until I saw Mu Hailin and then went to the temporary clinic to see Mu Haixia and Mu Haiwei, only then did I realize that something big had really happened last night.
Mu Haixia and Mu Haiwei were actually executed by Mu Hailin, which caused a strong shock in Irina's heart.
Why were these two punished, rather than others? What exactly was the serious matter that led to the use of corporal punishment in the Mu household? Was it related to her inciting these two men to express dissatisfaction with the Tang dynasty? If so, did they turn her in?
With Irina's cautious style from years of working at the newspaper, she certainly wouldn't leave any evidence for Mu Haixia and Mu Haiwei, even if they turned her in, she had all sorts of ways to clear herself.
However, this would inevitably raise suspicions in the Tang Dynasty.
When it comes to the crunch, the arrow is on the string. No matter what, I must quickly figure out Tang's true intentions, otherwise she will be caught off guard and fall into a passive awkward situation, losing her footing.
From Ziliang's words just now, Irina got a piece of information that Tang Dynasty was going to discuss important matters with Mu Hailin. Whether the content of their conversation would be related to her was what Irina urgently wanted to know at this moment.
Because of her connections with the Tang Dynasty, Irina could enter and exit the Xinhua Building freely at any time. Therefore, Irina didn't need to report and directly came to the first floor's grand hall.
"Hey! Beautiful lady, so early! Anything up?" Tang Chao held a cup of hot milk in his hand, drinking and teasingly greeted Irina.
"Something big happened last night, as a member of the Tangjia Village militia, I'm concerned, shouldn't I be?" Irina's every gesture was full of charm and didn't seem artificial at all. A flirtatious glance, a fleeting smile, it all looked so casual and natural.
"You said that, then you should go find Old Mu instead." Tang Dynasty forced himself to look away from her turbulent and ample bosom, warning himself that it was very impolite and unbefitting of his status.
"Boss, you said Mu Yingchang, why did he use family law on his elder sister and second brother?" Irina glanced at Lan Xin beside Tang Chao, then sat down in a chair on the other side of Tang Chao with an air of nonchalance, her tone sounding somewhat indifferent, as if she was intentionally making small talk just to chat with Tang Chao for a bit.
Everyone living in the Xinhua Building is intelligent and insightful, including Wu Ma, Ziwei, and Lanhui. Who can't see that Irina is openly flirting with Tang Chao?
Irina approached him multiple times on her own initiative, and it was obvious that she was playing hard to get, being ambiguous and elusive. Tang Chao was also secretly pondering in his heart what her true intentions were.
Tang Chao doesn't think he has a strong charm that can make all women take the initiative.
The reason for the doubt is that a few words of conversation between Irina and Lan Xin yesterday made Tang Dynasty feel that Irina seemed to be slightly dissatisfied with Lan Xin.
However, before the Tang Dynasty could figure it out, Irina's dissatisfaction was either a woman's jealousy or her discontent with Lan Xin quickly leaving the Mu family and siding with the Tang Dynasty.
If it's the latter, then you'd better be on your guard against this woman who is still hard to figure out.
"Lao Mu will be here soon, just ask him yourself in a bit and you'll know." Tang Dynasty clearly didn't want to discuss this topic with Irina any further, smiling blandly: "This is their family business, we're outsiders, it's best if we don't get too involved."
"Xin Hua, Irina can't be considered an outsider." Lan Xin said indifferently: "In the eyes of the Mu family, she is a strong competitor to the young mistress of the Mu family."
"Oh?!" Tang Dynasty was apparently a bit surprised by the situation, looked at Lan Xin, and then turned his head to look up and down at Irina, with an expression that asked strangely: "Does Old Mu like you?"
"There's nothing strange about that." Irina gave Tang Dynasty a dismissive glance, "I'm so beautiful and capable, I can say that I have both looks and skills, any man would be interested in me."
"Hmm, so you're saying that the one who's still interested in you isn't a man?" Tang Chao teased with a smile.
"Haha! I didn't say that, you said it yourself." Irina laughed with a carefree look. Her gaze then fell on Lan Xin's face, looking at her with deep meaning in her eyes, "This is what they call the boss's nickname, looks like the boss really likes you, should we start calling you 'Boss Lady' from now on?"
When it comes to arguing, Irina spends all day in a pile of big shots, and ten Lan Xin can't keep up with her.
Her face turned bright red as she stood there, unsure of how to respond.
"She's my woman, and you can call her boss too, it's not inappropriate." Tang Dynasty smiled calmly: "It turns out that I have to thank you for reminding me, a person who has been single for so many years, it's time to get married and start a family. Another day, I will formally marry Lan Xin and hold a grand wedding feast in the Tang Family Fortress, celebrating for three days and three nights."
The words of the Tang Dynasty stunned Irina. She really didn't expect that the man in front of her would support Lan Xin, a beautiful woman from a humble background, so strongly, and it seemed that he was even targeting her.
Lan Xin was now both moved and excited, with joyful tears welling up in her beautiful eyes, almost to the point of overflowing.
Ziwei was quite clever, seeing that the situation in front of her wasn't quite right, thinking that since she had already decided to join the Secret Task Force, she should stand firmly on Lanxin's side.
"Congratulations, boss! Congratulations, madam!" Ziwei smiled and congratulated Tang Chao and Lanxin with a beaming face, "This is the first-class good news of our Tangjia Fortress, we must widely post heroic notices, and invite all the big names from the southern border to gather at Tangjia Fortress to celebrate!"
"Not bad, not bad. This remark of Ziwei is quite to my liking." Tang Chao nodded and smiled: "The Tang family's fortress should show its face properly in front of the various heroes on the vast land of Huijiang."
"Boss, what good news makes you so happy!" Mu Hailin's loud voice came from the doorway.
"Old Mu is here! Please come in." Tang Dynasty sat without getting up, his right hand beckoned, inviting Mu Hailin to take a seat. He laughed happily and said: "Just now I made a decision, I plan to marry Lan Xin, so she can properly take care of my life by my side."
"Haha, this is indeed a great joyous event." Mu Hailin smiled happily and said: "Congratulations to the boss, congratulations to Lan Xin. I think we must handle this matter well!"
"Alright! It's settled then." Tang Dynasty slapped his palm on the table, "Old Mu, you're also considered a member of the Lan family and a reputable figure in Southern Xinjiang. This wedding banquet will be handled by you."
"Don't worry! Boss, I'll definitely make this wedding banquet a grand one that will be renowned throughout all of Xinjiang." Mu Hailin confidently guaranteed with a mouthful of promises.
After finishing, Mu Hailin glanced at Irina with a slightly unnatural expression and asked indifferently: "Irina, what are you doing here? Is this place where anyone can come casually? There's no discipline! I just sent someone to find you everywhere."
Mu Hailin's face had a clear look of displeasure, and Irina's heart skipped a beat as soon as she saw him, silently thinking that something was wrong.
"What brings you here, Mr. Da?" Irina asked stiffly.
"What are you looking for me about? Don't you have any idea in your mind?" Mu Hailin coldly smiled and counter-questioned.
"What numbers are in your heart? What kind of numbers?" Irina knew that today might be a difficult hurdle to pass, and her mind was racing with thoughts, but she certainly wouldn't give up easily.
"You're still stubborn even when death is staring you in the face!" Mu Haolin suddenly slammed his hand on the table and stood up, "What have you done, what have you said, can't you remember anything at all?"
After finishing, Mu Hailin rushed to Tang Chao and bowed, with his hands clasped together in a fist, "Boss, please forgive me for being presumptuous in front of you. Irina had ulterior motives, trying to instigate my elder sister and second brother to harbor malicious intentions towards the boss. For this, I have already administered family law to Mu Haixia and Mu Haiwei. Now, it's time to let this culprit in front of me settle this account!"
The Tang Dynasty was suddenly made cloudy and misty by Mu Hai Lin, and he waved his hand repeatedly, saying: "Wait a minute, Old Mu, did you just say that Irina had ulterior motives and instigated Hai Xia and Hai Wei to make trouble?"
"Hmm!" Mu Hailin nodded heavily and said decisively: "The evidence is conclusive, it was Haiwei who told me personally."
For Mu Hailin and Irina, Tang Dynasty would rather choose to believe Mu Hailin.
Tang Dynasty smiled enigmatically at Irina, recalling the intelligence she had retrieved from the carrier pigeon last night. He said with an unfathomable smile: "Tell me, what's going on? Don't say that Old Mu is talking nonsense, and don't say you need to produce any direct evidence. In Tangjia Fortress, my words are evidence!"
