I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World

After dragging her suitcase into the mansion, Natasha examined everything inside and abruptly said.

“You guys are together?”

He wasn’t planning to hide anything and nodded.

“Yes. A lot happened while you were in Moscow.”

“Eh? I didn’t see it coming.” Natasha glanced at Jiang Chen with a surprised look on her face and then said with a playful expression. “I thought you were keeping it ambiguous.”

“What do you mean by keeping it ambiguous.” Jiang Chen gave her a dirty look. “How did you figure it out?”

“I am still a former KGB agent.” Natasha shrugged. Suddenly, she pulled her face closer to Jiang Chen, and with a mischievous grin, she said, “Not to mention, I’m still a woman.”

“I see, I almost forgot.”

Jiang Chen’s sudden realization look made Natasha give him a dirty look.

Although she went back to Russia for some time, Jiang Chen left her room for her, Ayesha also occasionally cleaned it for her. After helping her carry her suitcase into the room, Jiang Chen did not bother with her anymore and went to Ange Island Industrial Park.

This morning, Yang Guanglei, the CEO of Future Heavy Industries, sent a short message to him through the office software of Future Group. The first Stingray X-1 machine produced by Ange Island Industrial Park had completed its initial tests.

If all things went smoothly, during the United Nations Summit on Outer Space five days later, it would be sent into orbit by the space elevator together with 60 passengers. These passengers would be participating in the first-passenger ride. A professionally-trained astronaut would pilot the spacecraft. A transport module would be prepared with five kilometers of deuterium and several tons of foods to complete the round-trip flight between the giant Celestial City and the Moon Colony.

Although eighty percent of the parts were completed by industrial-grade 3D printers, it marked the astonishing ability of Ange Island Industrial Park’s capability to produce 22nd-century equipment. To finally achieve this point, Jiang Chen spent two full years.

Although the first round of negotiation with Celestial Trade was unsuccessful, Ye Qinghua was not discouraged. In a sense, he expected this. If they didn’t make any unreasonable offers at the beginning, would it really be considered negotiations?

If such a big project could reach an agreement on its first meeting, he would be suspicious of Jiang Chen setting him up.

However, Jiang Chen’s tough stance on the track leasing contract was to the surprise of Elder Ye and Hua’s top authority. With the current space market activities, there was no demand for twelve tracks. Celestial Trade shouldn’t have rejected this proposal.

“It seems that we still underestimated the market prospects of space resource development and Jiang Chen’s ambition. Future Group is an expert in this area, so they should be able to see farther in this respect…”

After scolding his granddaughter, Elder Ye also gave her a small break.

To test Jiang Chen’s bottom line at the negotiations table and his stake in the opponent’s heart, her task was complete. Although for herself, she would have to return empty-handed.

Although using the younger generation made Elder Ye feel a little guilty, but in front of national interests, the interests of the family could always be sacrificed.

When he returned, he planned to talk with Ye Xianrong, Yunfei’s dad, about the marriage and stop making it difficult for his own daughter. Although Jiang Chen continued on his upward trend, he was nothing to the giant Ye family. Since Yunfei didn’t like him, he would just call everything off.

It would also be her compensation.

When people grow old, they always have a soft side for the younger generation.

Shaking his head, Elder Ye set his granddaughter’s matter aside and looked at the photo on the table.

It was a photo photographed by his bodyguard at the airport. The Russian woman carrying a suitcase in the photo was Natasha, who Jiang Chen had previously picked up from the airport.

“The former senior KGB agent. She was active at the Russian-Ukrainian border before meeting Jiang Chen there and retiring. Her personal resume shows that she has participated in the Georgia War, the Crimean Crisis, and other significant international events… How is she in contact with Jiang Chen.”

Elder Ye frowned, puzzled.

Jiang Chen possessed a special intelligence force, which had long been public knowledge in the intelligence organizations of various countries. He shouldn’t be unaware that the Russian beauty who lived in his home had served the Russian intelligence agency.

“Are the rumors true then…” Elder Ye touched his chin and was lost in thought.

According to the intelligence analyzed in the General Staff Department, Jiang Chen’s private life was far from being as low-key as the Internet generally perceives. Not only has he been in an affair with a domestic celebrity, but the rumors also said that his female bodyguard has another identity, his mistress.

Moreover, a rumor that has been circulating states that as early as Jiang Chen was still in Wanghai, he maintained an “ambiguous” relationship with Xia Shiyu.

Not only that, there seemed to be another mistress in the mansion he bought in Yoto that has yet to graduate from university.

“If he really likes women, this is good news for us.” A shrewd light shone from Elder Ye’s eyes.

Although neither he nor the people above him had ever imagined that he would return to Hua, they didn’t mind establishing a few bonds to maintain a close relationship.

Marriage is a good choice!

Whether it is for the country or for the Ye family…

With the thought in his mind, his sad granddaughter’s face had who just been reprimanded emerged in Ye Qinghua’s mind.

Although Ye Yunfei may have left a bad impression at the negotiation table, there was no deep hatred between the two. It was better to have an impression than to have no impression at all! If he could use some means to get them together…

With this idea in mind, Elder Ye’s cloudy eyes gradually became clearer.

Even though the daughter of his second son was no goddess, he was confident in her beauty and believed that she was still stunning. Not only was she beautiful, but she also received excellent aristocratic education. Whether looking at her individual talents of poetry and painting or her educational background as a graduate from Harvard, she was far from being an ordinary woman.

Although there is a bit of arrogance in her bones, with so many positive traits, this shortcoming could be easily ignored.

As for Jiang Chen’s private life, he did not care at all.

Even if Jiang Chen wished to constitutionally restore polygamy in his “small kingdom” or even if Jiang Chen wasn’t emotionally committed to this marriage, he could care less.

In front of national interests, so-called personal feelings were never important. The strength demonstrated by Future Group and Celestial Trade was also enough to allow the Ye Family to lay down its traditional stance and sacrifice the personal happiness of a certain family member.

“It’s just… poor Yunfei.”

Elder Ye sighed. After deliberated for a moment, he reached for the phone and called his second son, the provincial government secretary, Ye Xianrong.

He would have to discuss this with the top authority, but he must first talk to her father. Regardless of the success of this marriage, he must persuade Yunfei first.

Forcing her to put down the prejudices in her heart and getting close with a man she didn’t love at all would be hard for her.

However, Elder Ye knew that she would understand his and her father’s difficult decision.
