Seeing the other person's frightened look, Russell waved his hand helplessly.

"Okay, what's going on?"

"Yes, my lord."

Thinking of the actions of the Chamber of Commerce during the investigation, a hint of anger appeared on Li's face.

"According to my reports, the Chamber of Commerce has prepared a large quantity of special steel, seemingly intending to sell it to other countries."

Special steel is an important material for building mobile cities and high-speed warships. It is a strictly controlled strategic material in every country.

When he heard that the guys in the Chamber of Commerce were actually planning to export such things to other countries, even Russell showed a hint of anger on his face.

"Those scum, don't they know the importance of special steel? Li, have you found any information about the buyer?"

"No, the Chamber of Commerce has done a very good job of keeping secrets. I even discovered they were planning to sell special steel because a piece accidentally fell out while a few workers were carrying it."

Shaking his head, Li said with some regret.

Although she installed a bug in the office of the Chamber of Commerce spokesman, she still did not get any information about the buyer.

"Although I haven't been able to find out about the buyer, I have discovered that the Business Federation is planning to target the Linguang family."

"A plan against the Linguang family?"

Hearing Li's words, Russell suddenly had a bad premonition.

"Yes, I installed a bug in the office of that guy named Markowitz. He seems to be planning to use the newspaper to ease the relationship with the Linguang family while at the same time commissioning the Wuzhou League to assassinate Margaret Linguang."

"!!!"

Li's thoughts were relatively simple. He just thought that the people from the Chamber of Commerce wanted to take revenge on Margaret.

But Russell had been in a high position for many years, and based on previous documents, she immediately guessed the Chamber of Commerce's intentions.

"The Business Federation is planning to pin the blame on the Supervisory Commission for the assassination of Margaret, in order to stir up public protests against us and allow the Business Federation to replace the Supervisory Commission."

"what!"

After hearing Russell's analysis, Li's expression changed.

Although there are indeed many voices in Camisil calling for the Chamber of Commerce to replace the Supervisory Commission.

But with her understanding of the Chamber of Commerce, Li was certain that if the Chamber of Commerce replaced the Supervisory Commission, Camisil would indeed become a paradise for the rich, but also a hell for the poor.

"Sir, I'll stop them right now!"

"Do not."

Seeing Li's hurried look, Russell immediately reached out to stop her.

"This is a crisis for us, but it is also an opportunity!"

"opportunity?"

Chapter 221: Shooting oneself in the foot

"Sister, try this! I made this myself. My aunt's cooking... After my sister left, I had to cook for myself. Even my uncle said I'm very talented in this area."

"If you call me aunt again, I'll be angry! And my cooking skills are not bad at all, it's just that you are not used to Victoria's food!"

Upon learning that Chuanqiong and Margaret had traveled a long way and had not had time to eat, Maria immediately volunteered to go to the kitchen to prepare a table of food for them.

Margaret was a little worried at first. After all, in her memory, her sister seemed to have never entered the kitchen.

But when Maria's dish was served, Margaret realized that she was not the only one who had improved in the past six months.

"Does Victoria have any delicious food? In my impression, Victoria seems to only have dark cuisine, right?"

"......"

Although they hadn't eaten for more than 20 hours, Chuanqiong and Margaret had no appetite because they were so sleepy.

After eating two bites, he prepared to rest.

Originally, Cyril planned to separate the two, but after the fight just now, Cyril was very satisfied with Chuanqiong.

Thinking of the newlyweds, Cyril hesitated for a while and finally gave up his plan to target Chuanqiong.

"The guest rooms haven't been cleaned yet, Margaret. You and this brat should just stay together for now."

"Ugh?"

When Margaret heard what her grandfather said, her face changed immediately.

"How could that be? It's just..."

Although her grandfather seemed to like Chuan Qiong very much, if he knew that she was not pregnant, he would definitely forbid her to leave home and cut off all contact between her and Kazdel.

But from childhood to adulthood, Margaret has never told a lie.

Facing his grandfather's sharp gaze, he could only look towards Chao Chuanqiong for help.

"Grandpa, Margaret must be worried about what I might do to her at night. After all, she's just pregnant and needs to protect the fetus."

"really......"

Cyril was also an experienced person and immediately understood what Chuanqiong meant.

"Then I'll let Maenna help you clean up a guest room first."

"..."

Hearing Cyril's words, Mainna immediately rolled her eyes.

He finally had a day off, and he had planned to go fishing to relax.

As a result, the old man seemed worried that his catching fish would affect his dignity, so he directly assigned him a job.

Although he really wanted to give Old Deng the middle finger, when he thought of his opponent's fighting strength, Mainna could only sigh helplessly.

"I understand, Chuanqiong, right? Please wait in the living room for a moment. Maria, Zofia, come with me and help clean up the guest room!"

She couldn't just be unhappy by herself. Looking at Maria lying on the sofa playing with her mobile phone and Zofia lying on the sofa watching TV, Mainna immediately prepared to drag the two of them to die together.

"Alas...I was planning on having a good chat with my sister!"

"I have to go to work later. Why don't you come by yourself, Mynna?"

"Margaret's been traveling all the way, let her rest first. Also, Zofia, didn't you just say yesterday that you'll be taking a few days off?"

"Well......."

"How about letting Chuan Qiong go to my room first? I don't usually live here anyway."

The weather was getting hotter, but the Linguang family did not install air conditioning in order to train their children's perseverance.

It’s okay if you don’t move, but if you move a little you will immediately be covered in sweat.

Seeing that Mainna was about to drag them to death together, Zofia quickly raised her hand to indicate her identity.

"I'll stay in your room..."

Zofia is just a branch of the Linguang family. Although she moved to the Linguang family because she was appreciated by the old man, she usually has work at the Supervisory Commission and rarely comes back to live.

Even when he came back occasionally, he lived with Maria.

In fact, her room was rarely occupied.

Looking at the sun outside, Mainna nodded immediately.

"Is your room not messy?"

"Don't worry, you know my habits. I pack everything very well."

As she spoke, Zofia took out a key from her pocket.

"Chuan Qiong, please stay in my room for a while this morning. We will help you clean up the guest room when it gets cooler in the evening."

"It's okay. I always slept in a tent when I was in Kazdel. I'm already satisfied with just having a bed. How can I say I'm just making do?"

"Not only did the old man recognize your fighting prowess, but you also spoke so politely. I now understand why Margaret likes you."

"It's just my luck."

In order to prevent the exposure of the fact that they were just ordinary friends, Chuan Qiong laughed it off and took the key to go to Zofia's room to rest.

However, Chuan Qiong had just gone upstairs when Zofia, who was lying on the sofa playing with her mobile phone, suddenly thought of something and her pretty face turned red.

"I suddenly remembered that the charger seems to be in the room. I'll go up and get it first."

"Huh? Isn't Zofia's charger right next to the sofa?"

Chapter 222 The Assassin

Zofia's room looks very simple, with pure white walls. There is only a wardrobe in the room besides a bed and a desk.

It looks more like a soldier's barracks than a girl's room.

"It seems that Miss Zofia is a very serious person."

As soon as he sat down, Chuan Qiong found that there seemed to be something under the sheets.

After opening it out of curiosity, a pile of various toys immediately caught his eye.

"this......"

We are all adults, and it is completely understandable that people have some hobbies. Chuan Qiong prepared to pretend that he didn't see anything and helped Zofia pack the toys and put them in the drawer of the desk.

But just as he stretched out his hand, the door of the room was kicked open and Zofia, with an anxious look on her face, rushed in from outside.

"Mr. Chuanqiong, please wait a moment, my charger..."

Seeing Chuan Qiong reaching out to his toy, Zofia's pupils instantly lost their luster.

"Well, Miss Zofia, I'm actually blind and can't see anything at all."

Even though he had been the archbishop for such a long time, Chuan Qiong still felt a little embarrassed when encountering such a thing.

So he just pretended not to see anything.

"......"

Although she knew that Chuan Qiong was trying to ease the embarrassment, Zofia couldn't help but roll her eyes when she saw him acting so awkwardly.

"Before you talk about this place, please take your eyes off my things!"

Since Chuan Qiong had already seen it, Zofia felt like giving up.

Chao Chuanqiong glared and prepared to pack his things.

But just as she was about to squat down, Chuan Qiong suddenly stepped forward and threw her to the ground.

"Ugh?!"

Although she is Margaret and Maria's aunt, Zofia is actually only in her twenties.

She has never been in love in all her years.

Feeling the scent of the opposite sex coming towards her, Zofia's face became even redder.

"Wait, Chuan Qiong, I know Margaret's pregnancy has you a little bit, but I'm Zofia's aunt! I know there's a shop in the Grand Knight Territory that provides that kind of service. How about I pay you to go there and spend some money?"

"Auntie, how did you know there was a shop that provided that kind of service?"

"Um......."

Just as Zofia was struggling to figure out how to answer Chuanqiong's question, an arrow pierced through the window and stuck straight into the wall.

Seeing the arrow that had penetrated most of the wall, Zofia's pupils contracted sharply.

"This is......"

"The reason I threw you down just now was because I felt the attack."

"......"

Although he really wanted to ask why Chuan Qiong didn't tell him directly when so much time had passed, before he could open his mouth to ask, Maria and Mainna rushed over after hearing the noise.

"what happened?!"

"Aunt, why are you hugging your brother-in-law? Could it be that you've watched too many movies in the East Country and want to..."

It hit Maria's head, and Zofia glared at her fiercely.
