Chapter 1605: The Fake Young Master Will Be Pampered by the Real Young Master 35

~6 min read 1,064 words

Jin Chen hesitated, wondering whether he had switched protagonists or if Jiang Wen had suddenly found true love in this small world, and gossipingly asked, "Who is the person you like?"

Jiang Wen stood at his side, his eyes filled with indescribable affection and anticipation; as soon as Jin Chen turned his head, he could see him.

"It's you."

Pa-da.

The tarp in Jin Chen's hand slipped off all at once.

He turned around in surprise, "Which one?"

Jiang Wen looked at him and repeated again, "The person I like is you."

Jin Chen: "……"

"【Heavens! You've become the protagonist!】" Ling Gun Gun laughed oh hoho repeatedly.

"No wonder, it's connected, everything makes sense now!"

Jiang Wen glanced over, obviously having heard that remark; Zhu Suisheng, who had slowly approached from behind Jin Chen, lowered his head cautiously, his tone dropping considerably, "I just wanted to tell you this."

"You don't need to feel burdened; as long as we can stay friends in the future, that'll be fine, okay?"

Jin Chen: "Actually……"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than he sensed Zhu Suisheng's approach.

Zhu Suisheng walked over silently, his eyes full of hostility toward Jiang Wen: "You can't like Jin Chen."

"Jin Chen will never like you, never ever."

In fact, as an agent of the Strategy Department, Zhu Suisheng had seen many stubborn partners, and the outcome was undoubtedly tragic.

To Jiang Wen, this comment was utterly harmless; all he wanted was to fill his Heartbeat Value.

"Sorry, you don't need to get angry." Jiang Wen's smile was a bit forced, "I have no other intention; I just wanted to tell you this."

"You……" "Shengsheng."

Jin Chen interrupted Zhu Suisheng's words, pulled him back two steps, and said, "Be good, I'll have a private chat with him."

Zhu Suisheng pouted, gripping Jin Chen's wrist, acting aggrieved: "I don't want… He already said he likes you; who knows what else he'll do."

"Don't talk to him alone—what am I supposed to do?"

"Just a chat; I'll make him stop liking me." Jin Chen cupped his face, gave him a kiss, gently stroked his back, "Nothing you're worried about will happen—just twenty minutes, okay?"

Zhu Suisheng closed his eyes, accepted the kiss, wrapped his arms around his waist and hummed twice, filled with endless possessiveness.

"Then twenty minutes—no more than a second extra."

"Okay."

Only then did Zhu Suisheng slowly release his grip, turn and leave; as he walked behind Jin Chen, he gave Jiang Wen a blank stare, the gloom and chill in his eyes almost solidifying.

At that moment, even Jiang Wen, who had experienced countless worlds, couldn't suppress a fleeting panic.

Jiang Wen averted his gaze, thinking, "This world is really too strange."

He quickly composed himself, and after Zhu Suisheng left, he looked back at Jin Chen with a heart‑aching smile, "Is there still something you haven't said?"

"I'm also an agent." Jin Chen laid his cards on the table, not wanting Jiang Wen's interference to cause another emotional crisis.

"You are…… huh?!" What the heck?

Jiang Wen had intended to go along with what he said, but after realizing it, he was frightened badly, including the system buzzing in his head.

"You're… an agent, what mission?"

Jiang Wen's voice changed, filled with disbelief and a hint of probing.

"Rescue Department, rescue the villain mission." Jin Chen continued, then softly called Ling Gun Gun.

Ling Gun Gun shook his head and greeted the system in Jiang Wen's mind.

Half a second later, it emitted a sharp, crackling electric sound.

: '【……Warning! Warning! Top‑level system detected; please, Host, abort the mission immediately!】'

"Which system is this? Why didn't you make it clear from the start?" Jiang Wen panicked inwardly, wondering what it meant to be a mission performer in this small world.

: '【This system lacks permission to detect a top‑level system; according to the friendly signal prompt, that system is……0731.】'

"Which 0731, could it not be……?"

: '【There is only one 0731 in the Quick Transmigration Bureau.】'

So the Host of 0731 is……

: '【……】'

Jiang Wen: '……'

Jiang Wen glanced at Jin Chen nervously; his whole being was utter embarrassment.

He's hooked the director boss's man! So… Zhu Suisheng is the director's soul!

Jiang Wen's vision went dark.

This is no different from the boss picking a dish for me and me changing seats, or the boss liking me and forcibly taking me.

After several minutes of silence.

Jiang Wen felt utterly drained, his voice weak: "Actually…… everything is just a mission."

"That's how mission work goes; I didn't know your status, please understand."

Jin Chen could understand, but he was still curious and asked, "Has your Strategy Department ever had a case of falling in love with a mission target?"

Without any affection, you still have to pretend; although it's not as dangerous as the Annihilation Department or Counterattack Department, the mission difficulty is still quite high.

"Yes." Jiang Wen spoke frankly: "Agents of the Strategy Department are the fastest to rotate among the four departments; once they fall in love with the small world's protagonist, they choose to stay and finish the mission."

Jiang Wen gradually realized that if he abandoned this world, he would fail to achieve his zero‑mistake goal, and returning to his original world would be delayed further.

"Jin…… uh, big boss, may I ask you for a favor?" Jiang Wen voiced his concern.

"It's not really difficult; anyway, he has Ling Gun Gun, Bai Ze's weak point, in his hand. Jin Chen nodded, 'I'll help you contact Bai Ze.'"

Thanks, boss. May you and the boss love each other forever.

Jiang Wen was quick-tongued, 'I'll wrap up quickly and leave this world.'

Tai She died, wishing to leave immediately.

Jin Chen: '......'

It was clear that the Strategy Department staff were sharp-tongued.

"Chen Ge! Chen Ge!"

Yu Xing bounced over, waved at them, 'Shengsheng sent me to remind you, there are five minutes left!'

Jin Chen chuckled, 'Got it.'

He turned and walked toward the stationed tent area; Jiang Wen let out a breath, then seemed to recall something and followed over, needing to personally apologize to the boss.

I don't know whether, when the boss's soul awakens, he has returned to the original world, but... workplace survival forces one to be careful.

Jiang Wen shed a handful of bitter tears.
