Chapter 450: 436, Press Conference (3)_1 Chapter 450: 436, Press Conference (3)_1 Saint Ronas Town, located on a small island in M Country, was a remote wilderness town. No one had expected that they would hide there.
Among them, one of the drug traffickers was the worldâs most wanted drug lord. He was the backbone of the group and the hardest to deal with.
Itâs not frightening for a villain to have brute force, itâs terrifying when they wield intelligence.
The most prominent drug lord, full of cunning, had once tricked them. Recently, the actions of this group of people have become increasingly rampant. If they are not stopped, the consequences of the virus spreading would be unimaginable.
Upon hearing this, the old man Quanâs face was filled with worry lines.
He knew the special task force led by Quan Yimo was highly classified in China. The tasks they found challenging must be extremely dangerous.
Quan Yimo lifted his eyes to look at Quan Jingwu, somewhat hesitant to speak.
âJingwu, about that âŠâ
The veteran general knew how to assign tasks. Heâd tossed the hot potato to him. He dared not approach Jingwu himself but forced him to be the spokesman.
âAmo, did something come up from the superiors?â The old man Quan saw his dilemma and asked.
Quan Yimo reluctantly nodded, glancing in Quan Jingwuâs direction.
The old man Quan instantly understood, âThey want Jingwu to âŠâ
Before he could finish, Quan Yimo nodded.
âJingwu, what about you?â
Jingwu was different from him. If he was not willing to help, no one could force him.
Quan Jingwu glanced coldly, making his point, âTime.â
âIn five daysâ, he said.
They had received news that a deal would happen in Saint Ronas five days later. They must seize that opportunity.
Quan Jingwuâs icy eyebrows slightly knitted, âHave someone come to pick me up in M Country on the evening of the fourth day.â
âYouâre going to M Country?â Quan Yimo asked in surprise.
âI have to accompany my darling on a trip.â
Quan Yimo said, âI understand.â
Thereafter, the three of them, Quan Jingwu, Quan Yimo, and the old man Quan talked for a long time in the study room until it was time for dinner.
âOh, it seems like Iâve come back just in time.â Quan Mingxuan walked into the dining hall with a carefree smile on his face.
âYou still remember this is your home!â The old man Quan glared at him angrily.
âThis must have been cooked by grandma and my aunt, it smells so good.â Quan Mingxuan said sweetly.
Old lady Quan sighed helplessly and had another table setting arranged.
âHurry up and sit down to eat.â
âYes!â Quan Mingxuan promptly responded, taking a seat next to Quan Yimo.
âBig brother, what brought you home today?â
Quan Yimo glanced at him and retorted, âJust eat your meal.â
Quan Mingxuan muttered under his breath in discontentment.
So unfriendly, no wonder he doesnât have a girlfriend.
suddenly remembering something, he looked up at Jian Qing, âJian Qing, is Jian Luoâs car still parked at Dihaoâs? Did he go home last night?â
He left and yet his car remained parked at the entrance of Dihao. How strange.
Jian Qing suddenly paused, âItâs okay, Luoluo ran into a friend last night. He went home in their car.â
âAs long as heâs fine. I thought heâd been scared away by Ayue.â Hilarity filled Quan Mingxuanâs voice, âBy the way, I wanted to ask you if it was Jian Luoâs first time at a bar?â
From Jian Luoâs reaction last night, it was obvious he rarely went to bars.
Jian Qing nodded.
âAxuan, what did you and Ayue do to him?â Rhee curiously asked.
Quan Mingxuan had a face full of fear and innocently said, âAunt, you canât make such false accusations. With how well-behaved Ayue and I are, how could we do anything to him?â
Just as he finished speaking, the old man Quan gave him a cold stare. âWell-behaved?â
Did those two words even have anything to do with him?
âGrandfather, whatâs that look for?â Quan Mingxuan said, bursting into laughter.
The old man Quan glanced at him contemptuously, âAre you blind? Canât you recognize a look of disgust when you see one?â
That hurt.
Quan Mingxuan sighed mournfully.
How did his grandfather not appreciate how great of a child he was?
âXiaojing, I canât eat anymore.â Jian Qing who had been eating the shrimp and crab heâd prepared for her saw him reaching for more food for her and quickly stopped him.
She had already overeaten.
Quan Jingwu glanced at her nearly untouched bowl of rice, he knew she must have eaten too many cakes while he was gone.
âHave some more soup.â
He served her half a bowl of soup.
Jian Qing picked up her spoon and daintily sipped her soup.
âJian Qing, does Azhe still live at Shijin Haoting?â Quan Hao suddenly asked.
Jian Qing paused, put down her soup spoon, and wiped her lips with her napkin.
âYes, my father is still talking about wanting to drink with Uncle Quan.â
Nostalgia flashed in Quan Haoâs eyes. âThinking about it, I havenât seen Azhe for over a year.â
It seems like he could have a good drink with him this time.
Itâs funny to think about. Theyâre such close friends, and their children are even together. Itâs truly fate.
With eyes full of amusement, Rhee quipped, âIf you get drunk, just stay at Azheâs place. Donât come back.â
When he gets drunk, she is the one who has to deal with him, she certainly will not indulge him.
Quan Hao laughed, âAzhe probably wouldnât want to take me in.â
Rhee huffed lightly, âWell, Iâm not taking you in either.â
âLittle Qing, stay at our place tonight with Jingwu.â The kindness emanating from the old lady Quanâs eyes was unmistakable as she said in a soft voice.
âYes, Little Qingqing, stay overnight. Iâll dig out Jingwuâs childhood pictures for you to see.â Rhee winked at her suggestively.
Jian Qing smiled with pursed lips, agreeing cheerfully.

The anticipated media conference of the next day finally took the stage. All journalists from various Beijing media outlets were already waiting outside the JK International. Everyone wanted to capture the first piece of explosive news.
The elusive San Yue, who was finally about to make a public appearance, had caught not only Chinaâs attention but also international attention.
Shen Hao arrived at the ground floor, looking at the reporters and media crowded at the main door, he felt overwhelmed.
It seemed like he would be busy today.
As soon as he stepped out, all the reporters immediately flocked towards him.
âAssistant Shen, when will the press conference start?â
âAssistant Shen, has San Yue arrived at the company yet?â
âAssistant Shen, how is it that we havenât seen any sign of CEO Quan and San Yue? Has something happened last minute?â
Question after question attacked Shen Haoâs ears, yet he still maintained a smile on his face, âApologies, could everyone please calm down.â
Shen Hao was often by Quan Jingwuâs side, so he was quite well-known among all media outlets. When he spoke up, the noisy voices gradually calmed down.
