Chapter 284: The Gift

Even though she was wearing a women's beret at the moment, when the young woman whom Ye Qi affectionately called "Ai Jie" took off her sunglasses, she revealed a handsome face underneath that had been concealed—a face that was heroic yet sexy and charming.

In an instant, Sun Cheng's left hand, which had just taken the suitcase from her, tightened abruptly; although his expression didn't change drastically, his face darkened in a split second.

"It's you!"

Ada Wong, a woman whose identity was a complete mystery.

On the plane from the country to Central America, he had encountered this tall, sexy, and alluring stunner full of charm.

And on the island of dinosaurs—Nublar—he had experienced several thrilling days with her.

In San Jose, the capital of Costa Rica, Revenge and Defend, two Decepticon Scouts he had brought back from another world, had been severely damaged precisely because of this woman, forcing Sun Cheng to take them back for repairs the last time he returned to the 【Transformers】 world.

This seemingly delicate and sexy stunner likely possessed combat skills far more terrifying than those of special forces soldiers who had crawled through the lines of life and death.

Ever since returning to the country, Sun Cheng had been suspicious of her mysterious identity.

Since then, Revenge had been given a Task; it had invaded the internet and even some internal government networks of the United States dozens of times, attempting to find more clues about "Ada Wong."

However, for over a month, all it could find for Sun Cheng was a pile of useless information.

Fake, it was all fake!

Forged birth records, fabricated life backgrounds—even a Decepticon as powerful as Revenge could not find any real information on "Ada Wong," which only added to the mysteries surrounding this woman.

Originally, Sun Cheng had thought that perhaps this woman was just a passerby who had accidentally stumbled into his world, even if they had experienced some things before that were hard for him to forget.

But to Sun Cheng's surprise, only a little over a month later, he had encountered this woman once again.

Moreover, she appeared beside the person who was the most unlikely and inappropriate.

In an instant, Sun Cheng realized that this could never be a coincidence; the other party might have already set her sights on him, or perhaps she wanted something else from him.

Regardless of the result, this was definitely not something he wanted to see.

Thinking of this, the killing intent in his heart became uncontrollable, and even his gaze toward Ada Wong turned icy.

Seemingly not noticing Sun Cheng's ugly expression, Ada Wong took the initiative to greet him with interest, "General Manager Sun, long time no see!"

"General Manager Sun?"

This peculiar form of address from her not only made the cute girl next to her named "Xiao Lan" tilt her head and look at Sun Cheng in surprise, but it also left Ye Qi's face filled with confusion.

Sun Cheng's eyelid twitched slightly; he took a deep look at Ada Wong, but he restrained the killing intent in his eyes.

The encounters in the 【Transformers】 world had made him, who was already somewhat taciturn by nature, even more suspicious now.

Because of this, Ada Wong's "General Manager Sun" made him think of many things.

For example!

"She has investigated me; I'm afraid her appearing beside Ye Qi now is definitely not a coincidence..."

His Brain began to operate at high speed with unprecedented efficiency, and Sun Cheng's terrible mood soon calmed down; although he was still wary, the panic had vanished.

At the Larvis Hotel in San Jose, during a brief conflict with Ada Wong, the two Decepticon Scouts, Revenge and Defend, had both been lost to her, with one severely damaged and the other injured.

Thus, the last time he returned to the 【Transformers】 world, he had been forced to take Revenge and Defend back with him.

Clearly, that lesson had left a deep impression on him, as he suffered from a severe lack of security. He even abandoned his previous considerations for stealth and focused on the Enhancement of Revenge and Defend's combat power. It could be said that now, either one of them possessed combat power no less than No. 2, and facing a fully armed army of over a hundred would be no problem at all; this was the source of his confidence.

At present, forcibly suppressing the various thoughts churning in his mind, he took a deep look at Ada Wong, "It has been many days since we last met, Miss Ada is certainly very attentive to me!"

Ada Wong's lips curved into an arc, her eyes focused on him. She was naturally a sexy and charming stunner, and her beautiful eyes rippled with emotion, immediately causing the two girls traveling with her to have a misunderstanding.

"Attention is inevitable; General Manager Sun, you are our key target for investigation!"

After her red lips moved and she lightly spat out this sentence.

She tilted her head slightly and finally moved her gaze away from Sun Cheng, turning instead to softly explain to the two young girls beside her: "I came to Nandu this time specifically for General Manager Sun. Xiao Lan, you might not know. This younger brother of Qiqi is a man of the hour now. The 【Cybertron Technology Company】 he founded is currently very popular in the country, and we are not the only venture capital firm eyeing him!"

Sun Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly; he didn't expect this woman to still dare to play this game. With the intelligence she had shown before, it was impossible for her not to have realized that his fake identity had long been exposed.

However, because he couldn't figure out her intentions, and because Ada Wong had somehow gotten involved with Ye Qi, he felt even more wary.

Realizing that now was not the time to lash out, he could only suppress the boiling killing intent in his heart. As if he hadn't heard her words, he picked up the two suitcases and said, "My car is in the parking lot, let's go. Do you need me to take you to get something to eat first?"

"No need, we already had lunch on the plane!"

Xiao Lan was the first to answer; she seemed to have developed some interest in Sun Cheng because of Ada Wong's words and was secretly sizing him up.

Sun Cheng's attention was clearly focused on Ye Qi and Ada Wong, so he didn't pay much attention to her small actions. He looked at Ada Wong again politely, and seeing her shake her head as well, he finally turned his gaze to Ye Qi.

"No need, let's go first!"

Ye Qi shook her head with a smile, though a hint of fatigue was faintly visible on her face.

Clearly, for someone with a fear of heights, this flight had not been as comfortable as it looked.

Sun Cheng nodded with a pang of heartache, picked up the suitcases, and headed toward the parking lot first.

Unexpectedly, there weren't many travel items for the girls. Carrying two light suitcases, they walked over a thousand meters without even panting, and Sun Cheng and the others soon arrived at the parking lot and found the large domestic SUV he had recently purchased.

He opened the car doors first, let the women get in, and then carried the two suitcases to the trunk.

After finishing everything, Sun Cheng got into the car and saw Ye Qi in the passenger seat, holding a beautifully packaged gift box, about thirty centimeters in length and width, which had been placed on the seat earlier, and was carefully playing with it.

The box was tied with a red silk ribbon; clearly, Ye Qi also realized that this might be a gift Sun Cheng had prepared for her.
