Chapter 394: Chapter 15 Accident

"Right! She only left yesterday, and she came with Mr. President’s special permission to see you. If Shaoqing hadn’t stopped her, she probably would have rushed to the training base already," Lin Shu said with a smile.

Gu Xiaoxi looked at Quan Shaoqing and, at that moment, felt nothing but happiness.

Everyone was so good to her, even better than her own biological parents.

In this life, having them by her side, she desired nothing more.

Quan Shaoqing understood the sincerity in her eyes and couldn’t help but reach out to pinch her pretty little cheek, saying affectionately, "Eat a little more; it won’t be in vain, considering she came all this way. Momo misses you too, when we have time, we can go home together to see her."

Gu Xiaoxi nodded, a smile appearing on her face.

After lunch, the warm sunshine spilled over the small villa. Gu Xiaoxi had been basking in the sun with Quan Shaoqing, discussing recent events.

However, suddenly Quan Shaoqing’s phone rang.

He picked up the phone and smiled at her, "I need to take a call. Wait for me to come back, wife!"

He lovingly stroked her head, stood up, and walked to the side of the garden to answer the call.

With nothing better to do, she picked a handful of wild chrysanthemums in the yard, the fragrance overwhelming, her face alight with brilliant smiles.

Quan Shaoqing was on the phone for quite a long time, and his expression was not good. When Gu Xiaoxi looked over, he did not say much and hung up the phone.

"There’s been a bit of trouble on my end, I have to leave," he said and then turned and walked away.

Gu Xiaoxi didn’t know what had happened; Quan Shaoqing had left in such a hurry he didn’t even have time to explain or change his clothes.

Lin Shu, too, saw Quan Shaoqing’s grim expression for the first time. After taking that call, he just left the house.

Gu Xiaoxi looked at the small garden in front of her, full of beautiful wild chrysanthemums, with some bees flying over them, busy collecting nectar.

Her heart, however, suddenly began to race, especially when she saw Quan Shaoqing’s car speeding away, an unexplainable worry rising within her.

He rarely showed such a heavy countenance, and she wondered if something had gone wrong with his work.

Generally, things that could make his expression change so drastically were very serious.

Half an hour later, at Z Department Command Center.

A dozen high-ranking officials were as uneasy as if sitting on pins and needles, the atmosphere in the conference room dropping to freezing point. Lin Mi bowed her head, waiting for Quan Shaoqing’s arrival.

A moment later, Quan Shaoqing entered the conference room still dressed in simple home clothes, even his slippers not exchanged in his rush.

"What on earth happened?" The man moved forward, sat in the chief seat, and his gaze fell on everyone like ice.

"Our ten undercover agents embedded in Gao Si’s ranks were all eliminated last night, and there’s something fishy about this whole matter!" Lin Mi said gravely. To be eliminated meant that they had been sacrificed.

Over the years, Gao Si’s identity had remained a mystery. Unable to find his true identity, they had no choice but to plant undercover agents within his organization. Once they infiltrated, if they identified who Gao Si was, they could take action and strike a blow against crime.

The ten undercover agents, whether in training or placement, had required a significant effort on their part. Unexpectedly, all of a sudden, everyone was exposed.

There was certainly something fishy going on!

"Have you figured out the cause?" Quan Shaoqing looked up, his gaze landing on the investigative department’s personnel.

The commander immediately started explaining in a fluster, "My subordinates are investigating. As soon as we confirm one thing, we’ll know what happened."

"And how long will you need?" Quan Shaoqing asked angrily.

"Right away!" As soon as the commander finished speaking, his phone rang. After he answered the call, his expression grew darker and darker. Then, he stood up after hanging up, saluted Quan Shaoqing, and said solemnly, "Our superior officer has found out. There are traitors within our forces planted by Gao Si, including inside the Special Forces."

"Who?" Quan Shaoqing clenched his fists. He had long known there were moles, and during this period, he had gotten rid of many.

He had thought they were all cleared, but it turned out that someone had still infiltrated the Special Forces, knowing all the names of his Special Forces members.

"Over the past period, we’ve eliminated three spies at headquarters, but they left behind some information, which somehow ended up in the hands of a newcomer named Song Jingyi. Two days ago, she left the team after being ruled out of Special Forces selection due to insufficient educational qualifications. We now can confirm that the real Song Jingyi died in a car accident seven years ago. This one claiming to be Song Jingyi is actually a mole planted in A City by Gao Si. We’ve been deceived once again."

Upon hearing this, Quan Shaoqing stiffened.

Song Jingyi was a spy?

The girl from the same orphanage? The woman who, though not very competent, had always strived to work hard alongside Gu Xiaoxi?

He did have an impression of Song Jingyi; his first encounter with her happened when she stole Gu Xiaoxi’s money, which led to a bloody incident.

The person who dealt with Gu Xiaoxi back then was a subordinate of Gao Si.

Could this have been a premeditated encounter?

Quan Shaoqing clenched his fists in anger, if this was true, it could be said that they had successfully exploited sympathy to cover up certain facts, causing them to take a severe fall.

Sacrificing ten team members for no clear reason, Quan Shaoqing was burning with rage, his heart bleeding.

Everyone just saw Quan Shaoqing sitting there with an iron-blue complexion, his gaze as deep and bottomless as a black hole, brewing a storm that seemed capable of devouring everything.

"superior officer, this incident has cost us dearly. Three years of meticulous planning, gone in an instant. This Song Jingyi is unforgivable," Lin Mi said seriously at that moment. The severity of the situation was greater than they had imagined.

Training ten Special Forces members took at least three years, not to mention the amount of material and human resources expended, which is incalculable in monetary terms.

Besides, the loss of life is an unbearable matter.

One vibrant life, just gone like that.

They didn’t even have a chance to mount a rescue.

By the time they received the news, all their teammates were dead.

"Continue the investigation, I want to know, who exactly Song Jingyi is?" Quan Shaoqing rose from his seat, his tone stern, "Starting now, everyone’s personal files must be thoroughly checked. If there are any issues, they’re all disqualified."

He hadn’t expected that the elite Special Forces of Division Z would be defeated by a mere foot soldier.

"Now that our lead on Gao Si is gone, superior officer, do we have to give up on pursuing him?" a young officer asked worriedly.

Quan Shaoqing’s gaze swept over everyone with a cold ruthlessness, "We are not the only ones with undercover agents in Gao Si’s circle. Division Z can wait. Right now, countries around the world are cracking down on Gao Si. My subordinate has been exposed, but other nations still have undercover agents among them. As long as we find Gao Si, we won’t need to send any more undercover agents. We still need to think this through for the long term."

Hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

Gu Xiaoxi sat on the balcony holding Xiao Xiao, waiting for Quan Shaoqing, well into the evening.

Dinner time had passed, and Quan Shaoqing still hadn’t returned.

Bored, Gu Xiaoxi logged into her Jin account.

It had been a long time since she last contacted Su San, and she also wondered how Lu Xi was recovering.

Even though Su San wasn’t online, the others were.

Cheng Menger: "Yo, Xiao Xi is here. Haven’t seen you for so long, what have you been up to lately?"

Armful of Beauty: "Are you dumb? Xiao Xi is now the darling of Liuli Country. The last world competition made her known to quite a few people."

Gu Xiaoxi sent a couple of smiley faces first, then typed a string of characters, "If that’s the case, doesn’t that mean I’m in danger? If all of you are paying attention to me, it gives me the creeps."

"Don’t worry, since you’re with the military, no one dares to touch you easily. But you do need to be cautious of the Top Ten Criminal Organizations and Top Ten Dark Organizations. They definitely don’t want anyone who could pose a threat to them growing stronger," someone reminded Gu Xiaoxi.

Seeing everyone’s concern for her, Gu Xiaoxi couldn’t help but laugh, "One of your Top Ten Dark Organizations has already been bought by me. I’ll be expecting your care in the future."

"Hehe! We also hope you’ll take good care of us." Just then, Su San came online.

The moment Gu Xiaoxi saw Su San, she immediately switched to a private chat room and asked hastily, "How is Lu Xi doing? Is he feeling any better?"

"It’s been so long, he’s recovered quite well. It’s just that he can’t walk yet," Su San explained.

Hearing this, Gu Xiaoxi couldn’t help feeling distressed, "What did the doctors say?"

"As long as he doesn’t give up, there is still hope for recovery in the future."

Upon hearing this, Gu Xiaoxi finally breathed a sigh of relief. Regardless, she still hoped that Lu Xi would get well.

"Okay, I just came to ask about him, nothing else. I’m logging off now," said Gu Xiaoxi indifferently.

Su San hesitated, then still asked Gu Xiaoxi, "Do you have any news about Yi Si?"

"Why have you guys set your sights on him too?" asked Gu Xiaoxi, puzzled.

"His head is worth two billion. If I take him down, I can lead these kids to wash our hands of all of this," Su San said with a laugh.
