Chapter 491 Old Wang's granddaughter?
After leaving the study, the two women returned to their respective rooms and eagerly dialed the family video call.
White House.
In the holographic projection, the usually dignified face of the Bai family patriarch was now smiling like a blooming chrysanthemum.
"Great! Excellent! Bailu, you've done a fantastic job!"
"This is the bloodline of a powerful expert at the Mysterious Realm! Once born, they are destined for extraordinary talent! They are the future hope of our Bai family!"
The patriarch paced back and forth in the room excitedly, then, as if remembering something, his expression turned serious, and he solemnly instructed:
"Bai Lu, listen carefully."
"Deputy Commander Lin's wife is named Bai Muxi. Although she comes from a commoner background, she still shares the surname Bai."
"Five hundred years ago, we might have been one family!"
"You must make good use of this surname advantage, get closer to her, and build a stronger relationship!"
At this point, the patriarch's tone became stern:
"Also, don't try anything clever!"
"Don't think that just because you're an extraordinary martial artist or a daughter of a noble family, while Bai Muxi is just a low-level martial artist, you can look down on her or even offend her!"
"Remember this: in front of a mysterious and powerful figure like Lin Qiye, no matter how small your thoughts are, they won't escape his eyes!"
"Bai Muxi is his first wife and the mother of his first child. Based on the current intelligence, her position is as secure as a rock."
"If you offend Bai Muxi out of jealousy or arrogance, and thus anger Lin Qiye..."
"At that time, not only will you be implicated, but the entire Bai family will be dragged down with you! Do you understand?!"
Bai Lu felt a chill run down her spine upon hearing this, and cold sweat broke out on her brow.
To be honest, when she found out she was pregnant with Lin Qiye's child, she was truly overjoyed.
Even when facing the head of the family, she wasn't as reserved as usual; instead, she seemed a bit relaxed.
However, upon hearing the patriarch's words, Bai Lu, who was good at self-reflection, immediately noticed the change in herself.
This shouldn't be!
She nodded vigorously, responding respectfully:
"Yes! Don't worry, Master! I will definitely understand my place!"
"I will find opportunities to get closer to Madam, and I would never dare to overstep my bounds in the slightest!"
"Could we even tell her that they were originally a branch of the Bai family?"
The head of the household said with great satisfaction, "Your idea is excellent..."
……
Jiang family.
Meanwhile, the Jiang family was also filled with joy.
The Jiang family patriarch, his face flushed, repeatedly praised the gesture, but finally let out a feigned sigh, feigning concern.
"Sigh... Jiang Yu, I'm sorry to have wronged you."
"The dignified eldest daughter of the Jiang family, yet..."
However, Jiang Yu on the other side of the screen showed no sign of grievance in her eyes.
On the contrary, a flame of ambition burned in her eyes.
She lowered her eyes slightly and said in a low but firm voice:
"Master, I am not wronged."
This... is just the first step...
After hanging up the call, Jiang Yu stood in front of the mirror, looking at her still flat stomach, a confident sneer curling at the corner of her mouth.
Wronged?
What a joke.
This is the path to heaven that so many people would beg for but could never obtain!
She is very clear about her position.
Although Bai Muxi is the legal wife, she is too weak and is destined to stay at home to be a good wife and mother, unable to handle the storms outside.
As for Chu Fengling, she was just a martial artist as well.
But Jiang Yu is different.
She comes from a prestigious family, received the best education, is an extraordinary martial artist, and is skilled in management and political maneuvering.
"Among the deputy commander's women, I'm in the top tier."
"Furthermore, based on my observations over the past two days, the deputy commander seems to have ambitions beyond the villa, spending very little time there and devoting most of his energy to other areas..."
"This means that he needs a capable and resourceful person to help him manage his rear, or even to act as his representative in certain forces."
"It takes skill to rely on a man, but it's foolish to just be a pretty face."
Jiang Yu clenched her fists, her gaze intense.
"I will use this child's identity and the vice-commander's authority to slowly develop my own power base..."
……
When Old Master Wang heard the news that the two new secretaries who had entered the Lin residence two days earlier were pregnant, his hand, which was drinking tea, suddenly trembled, and the scalding tea almost spilled on him.
He put down his teacup, his expression extremely strange, even bordering on unbelievable absurdity.
"This young Deputy Commander Lin is simply... ridiculous!"
"This isn't about finding a secretary; this is clearly..."
Less than a week!
The four extraordinary martial artists, who were selected through multiple rounds of screening and were extremely outstanding in terms of education, appearance, and martial arts talent, were all direct descendants of various families and were originally intended to be elite secretaries to cultivate future high-level administrative talents for the star system.
One goes in, one folds!
She was a capable and strong woman when she was admitted, but in less than two days she became a pregnant woman awaiting childbirth!
Everyone's pregnant!
"This was absolutely intentional!"
Old Wang was so angry that he blew his beard and glared at his colleagues, pacing back and forth in his office.
"He's just relying on his identity as a mysterious and powerful figure!"
However, despite his anger, Old Wang dared not speak out.
Lin Qiye is currently at the height of his career.
The vice-president of the Ten Schools Alliance, the chief instructor of the city's garrison, a mysterious realm expert, and possibly even the next Martial God...
With such a string of titles and strength, who would dare to have a problem with him?
Instead of expressing any dissatisfaction at not seeing the Chen, Su, Bai, and Jiang families, they acted as if they had won the lottery, eager to celebrate with drums and gongs.
Old Wang took a deep breath, secretly rejoicing.
"Fortunately, I had the foresight."
"My silly girl used to nag me to become Lin Qiye's secretary."
"I forcibly stopped her at the time!"
"In hindsight, that move was absolutely the right one!"
Although Lin Qiye is strong, his style is too arrogant.
Four were completed within a week.
God knows how many women and children are in that villa of his?
Although the Wang family also wanted to curry favor with the powerful, Old Master Wang only had this one granddaughter as his most precious possession.
She was pampered growing up and has a very proud and arrogant personality.
If you send her there, she'll become a "mother" before anything even happens, and then be left in the backyard to fight with a bunch of women over her...
Old Wang felt heartbroken just thinking about it; he felt he couldn't bear the shame.
"No, we absolutely cannot let Kexin go."
Old Wang made up his mind.
"Let's pick two more from the shortlist and send them over..."
"Anyway, that kid just wants a... cough cough, a tool."
Just as Mr. Wang was about to open his terminal and make a video call with Lin Qiye to recommend two more candidates for a new secretary.
"Ding-dong—"
The office doorbell rang suddenly.
Old Wang frowned slightly and said with some displeasure, "Come in."
"Click".
The door clicked softly, and a tall, young woman in a secretary's uniform walked in.
Her long hair was styled in an updo, revealing her slender swan neck. Her features were exquisite, and her eyes exuded an innate confidence and pride.
She casually closed the heavy office door behind her.
When Old Wang looked up, his brows furrowed even more deeply.
"Kexin? What brings you here?"
The person who came was his granddaughter, Wang Kexin.
Currently, he is also in the secretariat of the Ten Schools Alliance.
Wang Kexin walked to the desk, placed her hands on the surface, looked directly at her grandfather with her bright eyes, and asked bluntly:
"Grandpa! Does Vice Minister Lin Qiye need a new secretary again?"
