Xiao Qi Tian had previously investigated Ning Meng Yao’s mysterious identity. Listening to her words, he affirmed his speculation. Since this was the case, the emperor might be at an advantage.
Turning to Xiao Qi Tian, Ning Meng Yao faintly said: “Xiao Qi Tian, you can stop looking at me with such calculative eyes.”
Xiao Qi Tian was slightly taken aback as he focused on Ning Meng Yao and laughed: “Oh, it’s nothing. I was just thinking what kind of wife did Tian Chang married.”
“You will know soon.” Ning Meng Yao raised an eyebrow and said as a matter of fact.
Xiao Qi Tian glimpsed and smiled. “Then I’ll wait and see.”
After notifying Qiao Tian Chang, Xiao Qi Tian went to another place. The purpose was to cover up traces of him coming to White Mountain Village. After all, he had some businesses here. He came over to inspect them so there was nothing wrong with it, right?
After Xiao Qi Tian left, Ning Meng Yao planned to talk about her background with Qiao Tian Chang.
She took out the jade that she had been holding and showed it to Qiao Tian Chang: “Do you know what this represents?”
Qiao Tian Chang looked at the jade. There was a “Tong” character carved on it.
“Tong Bao Zhai…”
“Yes, this token represents the real owner of Tong Bao Zhai.” Ning Meng Yao nodded.
Qiao Tian Chang was shocked. She was the owner behind Tong Bao Zhai?
Tong Bao Zhai first showed its appearance to the world seven years ago. The things they did were many, and one could buy information from them and do business.
Tong Bao Zhai wasn’t just a unique business, but also a collective name. Behind the back of this business, they also did all sort of trade.
Rice shops, ready-to-wear shops, tea shops, porcelain shops, restaurants and others. It did whatever one could ever think of. It was a business that spread all over the mainland.
To find out that the owner behind this business was actually his fiancee, was too shocking.
“Tian Chang, I’m telling you this because I don’t want you to make wild guesses. I made this business for Ling Luo’s sake. I thought that as long as I stood at the top, I can be a match for him, but I was slapped real hard by reality.” Ning Meng Yao laughed at herself.
Reaching out to embrace Ning Meng Yao into his arms, Qiao Tian Chang raised his eyebrows: “If you’re together with him, I’ll only end up crying.”
Upon listening to this, Ning Meng Yao couldn’t help but smile: “And you dare to say it.”
“Why not? Yao Yao, I don’t care about your past. I just want to be part of your future.” She was so talented. It was Ling Luo’s loss that he didn’t appreciate her. Qiao Tian Chang felt proud of his good vision, enabling him to have Ning Meng Yao by his side. She wasn’t just talented but also a wealthy woman.
He lowered his head on Ning Meng Yao’s shoulder and gently rubbed his head against her: “Yao Yao, please take care of me in the future.”
“Sure, if you don’t mind.” While smiling, she reached out to caress his cheek.
For a general to say that he wanted her to take care of him, he really wasn’t afraid that others would laugh at him if they heard him.
“If Ling Luo knows your true identity, he’ll surely regret his decision.” Qiao Tian Chang said happily.
She rolled her eyes at him and said: “So what if he regrets it?”
Ning Meng Yao raised an eyebrow and thought about it. It was true that he would regret, but it would have no connection to their relationship.
Qiao Tian Chang nodded seriously: “Yep, that’s right. It has nothing to do with us.”
“Of course. Oh, but I still prefer my life at this place.” Ning Meng Yao shrugged her shoulders. She didn’t like the wealthy life. She only did all those businesses to get through her daily tough life and for Ling Luo. Unfortunately it all turned to vain.
In her opinion, even if she didn’t have those achievements, Qiao Tian Chang, as a general, wouldn’t abandon her.
“If there’s a war in the future, you don’t have to worry about the armament.” Ning Meng Yao spoke seriously to Qiao Tian Chang.
Although she had gotten information that there wouldn’t be any war for the coming years, no one truly knew what would happen.
She was living in Xiao Country now. The emperor in the Luo Country was in his middle age. The following emperors were also adults. Emperor Luo also had big ambitions. Therefore, it was inevitable that he might have any thoughts of starting a war. After all, conquering Xiao Country had always been Emperor Luo’s wish.
