The 110 agents formed a massive net that covered every corner of Xin and expanded its tentacle-like reach to the outside world. They were just like 110 pairs of eyes that monitored the comings and goings of every corner of Xin.
…
When they returned to Coro Island from the training island, it was almost 11. Ayesha dropped off her luggage in the living room before she ran to the kitchen. Water began to run. By the sound of it, Jiang Chen knew she was cleaning the dusty kitchenware.
Since Ayesha left, Jiang Chen hadn't cooked at home. He had either gone out to eat or traveled to the apocalypse, thus the kitchen was completely empty and dusty.
Moments later, the fan was turned on before he heard the sound of vegetables being chopped. Jiang Chen watched the figure moving back and forth behind the frosted glass before a genuine smile appeared on his face.
[How should I describe the feeling?]
[Absence makes the heart grow fonder?]
Although Ayesha always seemed like a newlywed wife.
After not having Ayesha's cooking for so long, Jiang Chen almost ate his tongue when he tried her delicious food again.
Ayesha's cooking style was completely different from Yao Yao's. Due to the cold of the apocalypse, Yao Yao favored stews and hotpots more while Ayesha's style was a fusion between the east and west. For example, she chopped peppered steak into strips to fry them with peppers. But regardless of her style, there was no doubt her food was delicious!
If it wasn't for the fact that he loaded his genetic vaccine with a digestive and had a higher metabolism than typical people, he would be afraid he'd get a food-baby from eating so much food.
While Ayesha gazed at her love feasting on her cooked food, a joyful smile appeared on her face.
"Aren't you hungry?" Jiang Chen noticed Ayesha hadn't even touched her chopsticks yet as he asked curiously.
Ayesha blinked her blue eyes.
"Mhmm… I feel like I haven't seen you for a while. I want to look at you more."
After lunch, Jiang Chen helped Ayesha clean up the dishes and stuffed them into the dishwasher. He also put his clothes from yesterday into the washer and they picked up cleaning equipment to completely clean the dust-covered mansion.
...
Although Ayesha insisted she would do it herself, Jiang Chen still picked up a broom to help. It would be too embarrassing if she cleaned the whole mansion herself while he didn't do any chores.
Especially since there was much inexplicable fun to be had with chores when doing them with the person you loved.
When the housework was done, it was time to clean the people.
Thus, Jiang Chen picked up Ayesha and carried the blushing woman into the washroom.
The shower ran for two hours straight before it finally stopped.
Jiang Chen relaxed for the rest of the day.
…
The next morning, Jiang Chen planned to visit Zhang Yapin at the presidential palace. Yesterday afternoon, he made an appointment and President Zhang Yapin specifically rescheduled a few meetings so he could see Jiang Chen for the entire morning.
Jiang Chen took Ayesha to the garage and handed her brand new car keys.
"Let's get familiarized with our new car."
Ayesha looked at the Lamborghini, quite puzzled.
"Is this different from the previous one?"
Jiang Chen smiled mysteriously.
"There are too many differences; you'll see once you get in."
Ayesha put her hand on the front engine cover and gently tapped it with a skeptical look. Instantly, her expression became surprised.
"The exterior of the car was completely replaced with super-plastic steel and was repainted. The car windows were replaced with organic bulletproof glass that's capable of blocking anti-armor sniper rifles. Aside from the car being slightly heavier by a few kilograms, the defense of this Lamborghini is comparable to an armored vehicle." Jiang Chen walked beside Ayesha as he explained the car to her.
"Is… is this the technology from the other side?" Ayesha ran her hand along the surface as she murmured.
"Yes. Aside from all that, there's a button below the steering wheel that can launch heat sensor grenades from the spare exhaust. Targets can be locked onto from the screen."
Although it was the technology from the apocalypse, it didn't require too much expertise. They only built an exterior based on the specifications and added a grenade launcher. A lot of wealthy people before the war were keen to collect heavily-taxed diesel vehicles. So when Jiang Chen took out the odd-looking Lamborghini from the Sixth Street repair shop, they didn't look surprised at all.
The entire modification process took only 500 credits, which was well worth the money. If it wasn't for the fact that the trunk was in front, thus creating a lack of space, Jang Chen would've installed two Python rocket launchers on it.
Just as Natasha reminded him, was better for him to be cautious about his own safety since he was in a position of power. Jiang Chen wouldn't permit the things that happened on Coro Island to happen again.
Ayesha sat in the highly modified Lamborghini and tested the handling with a spin outside the garage then she stopped the car right in front of Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen got into the passenger seat, put on his seat belt, and Ayesha started the car again.
From Jiang Chen's experience as a passenger, aside from the vehicle being more stable compared to before, there was nothing else too different from this preivous one.
They arrived at the garage of the presidential palace. With guidance from the employees, Jiang Chen stepped into Zhang Yapin's office.
Zhang Yapin stood up to greet Jiang Chen when he saw him.
"What do you want to drink?
"Thank you, coffee is fine." Jiang Chen smiled and sat across from Zhang Yapin.
The honor of the president personally making coffee for him was something only Jiang Chen could enjoy, but it wasn't completely unjustified since Jiang Chen's Future Group and Celestial Trade provided 10000 jobs for Xin and indirectly facilitated at least 40000 employment positions. While the large number of foreigners raised the cost of living in the short term, it also made the locals wealthy.
Just thinking about the prosperous industries at Ange Island and the tourism growing by the day on the other eight islands, the president couldn't stop smiling.
"How have you been?" Jiang Chen took a sip of his coffee.
"Busy, but it feels pretty good. Because of Moro's independence movement, Country F can no longer be self-sustaining. Australia plans to increase trade with us, but we still have a small disagreement regarding tariffs. Their people and our people have been in nonstop debate for the past few days, but it's under friendly terms." With his fingers crossed on his knee, Zhang Yapin said pleasantly, "So, the issue we are discussing today is...?"
Jiang Chen put down his coffee and said two words.
"Visiting Hua."
"Visiting Hua?" Zhang Yapin raised his eyebrows. "But with the F civil war continuing to escalate, being too close to Hua could make UA suspicious."
"Then we'll visit them together."
With December approaching, whether it was ensuring the smooth launch of virtual reality helmets or fully expanding Xin's tourism industry, an official diplomatic visit was necessary. And as a representative of Xin's corporations, Jiang Chen had to be present.
