Chapter 341  "I tried to stop them but they were too many" (1)

"You!?" Mu Han could practically feel her brain cells giving up. "How are you so irri—Wait! Your name is Zhang Wei, right?" She asked, as if unlocking a sudden memory.

Zhang Wei nodded casually, leaning against the wall with a nonchalant air. "Yes, that dignified gentleman is me."

Mu Han was momentarily rendered speechless before finally muttering, "... It all makes sense now..."

"Excuse me, do you know me?" Zhang Wei couldn\'t resist bringing it up.

Mu Han\'s face turned bitter, a mix of annoyance and realization. "There wouldn\'t be a single person in the NSA who doesn\'t know you."

Zhang Wei\'s eyebrows shot up in surprise. \'She\'s from the NSA?\'

He nodded thoughtfully. "I\'ll take that as a compliment. So, spill the beans. What kind of play were you guys staging? And that guy, isn\'t he with the NSA too?"

Mu Han hesitated, then let out a sigh, shaking her head. "He\'s from the Dragon Squad. I\'m not directly from the NSA. Our country has various organizations outside of NSA, working directly under the Chief General of the Army. ONE of them is ZERO, completely independent from external interference."

Zhang Wei nodded, intrigued. "Alright, but that still doesn\'t explain what you were doing here and how I know you."

Mu Han\'s eyes twitched, irritation flickering. "First, you claim not to know me. It\'s actually the other way around. I\'m the one who discovered that \'Rong Meili\' didn\'t die by accident."

Zhang Wei grinned, realization dawning. "Oh, so you\'re the neighbor who moved in next to our old apartment."

"..." Mu Han stood there, rendered speechless by the surreal calmness in Zhang Wei\'s demeanor.

\'Why is he discussing all of this so casually?\' she wondered.

She sighed, a mixture of frustration and resignation. "Anyways, my work here is done. Thanks to you, all the plans are ruined, so I\'ll be on my way." With swift determination, she opened the windows, ready to leap forward and make her escape.

However, Zhang Wei, surprising her, intervened with a commanding tone. "Wait, you can\'t just leave without giving me some answers."

Mu Han shot him a perplexed look. "Why would I owe you any answers?"

Zhang Wei retorted, "Because you can\'t leave until I allow you to."

After a moment of contemplation, Mu Han nodded reluctantly. "You\'re right. So, what do you want to know?"

Zhang Wei handed his phone to her. "Save your number in it. I\'m a bit tied up right now, but we can continue this conversation later."

Mu Han hesitated, refusing to accept the phone, and let out a heavy sigh. "Sure, but what\'s your play if I decide not to save my number?"

Zhang Wei responded coolly, "Well, right now, you\'ve just handed me your address."

A moment of tense silence followed.

Mu Han\'s face contorted in a twitch, and she asked cautiously, "Is that a threat?"

Zhang Wei nonchalantly shrugged. "Depends on your level of politeness."

Feeling a rush of unease, Mu Han quickly replied, "No need for a demonstration. I\'m very polite," snatching the phone from his hand, saving the number, and returning it.

There was an undeniable sense of fear lingering.

This guy had no grasp of boundaries!

He was walking a fine line between audacity and insanity!

Zhang Wei nodded casually, as if everything was routine. "Now, let\'s talk about your purpose. What were you two scheming here with this fake marriage?"

Mu Han hesitated, a hint of frustration in her voice. "Can\'t I just keep it to myself?"

Zhang Wei remained composed. "It\'s alright, but you can\'t leave without telling me."

She rolled her eyes, questioning why she was going through all this trouble. Then, the realization hit her – she lacked the power to resist him. With a sigh of surrender, she admitted, "I was on a mission."

Zhang Wei pressed further, "What mission?"

Mu Han, feeling slightly uneasy, spoke while biting her lower lip. "It was a mission to infiltrate the Zhang family in the capital and uncover any traitors. The leader of Zero suspected hidden moles within Zero, aiming to compromise the first line of defense – the Dragon Squad."

Zhang Wei inquired, "Was Zhang Yuan aware?"

Mu Han shook her head, a bitter smile on her lips.

Zhang Wei couldn\'t help but remark, "Quite the courageous move, weren\'t you? Trying to trick the leader of the Dragon Squad into a honey trap, infiltrating his own house to dig for secrets. He would have crushed you if not for me. How about showing your gratitude by pledging your body to me?"

Mu Han, utterly bewildered, shot back, "... Why are you so interested in me?"

Zhang Wei, exuding confidence, replied with a smirk, "Once I decide, mine is mine.

*...*

A awkward silence settled between them.

Mu Han finally sighed, "Can I go now?"

Zhang Wei, seemingly nonchalant, responded, "Sure."

Relief washed over Mu Han. "Thank goodness," she thought, grateful that this madman might spare her from consummating their marriage on the spot. Just as she prepared to leap down from the window, another voice unexpectedly halted her.

"Wait!" Zhang Yuan\'s voice pierced the air from outside, abruptly halting Mu Han.

!!

Mu Han froze, and Zhang Wei raised his brows in genuine surprise.

Xiong Mei peeked her head out, creating space amidst numerous imposing bodyguards. "I tried to stop him! But they were just too many."

Zhang Wei\'s lips twitched, he didn\'t knew whether to laugh or cry.

Without missing a beat, he took Mu Han\'s hand, pulling her inside. "Did they do anything to you?" His gaze swept over each bodyguard, his hand delicately caressing Mu Han\'s head.

Unconsciously, Xiong Mei closed her eyes, a serene smile gracing her lips as she shook her head.

The bodyguards, now under Zhang Wei\'s piercing scrutiny, wore expressions of discomfort and unease.

"Brother, we are innocent. Can you stop glaring at us like that now?" One of the bodyguards couldn\'t contain himself; Zhang Wei\'s intense gaze was becoming unbearable.

Zhang Yuan intervened, his tone firm, "Zhang Wei, stop threatening my guards. They didn\'t do anything."

Zhang Wei let out a chuckle, a momentary release of tension. "I bet they didn\'t."

Xiong Mei\'s eyes widened, her heart pounding like a rabbit\'s. Even in this tense situation, she never anticipated Zhang Wei defending her like this. \'So cool...\' she couldn\'t help but inwardly remark, feeling butterflies in her stomach as she observed his handsome demeanor.

Ignoring Zhang Wei, Zhang Yuan approached Mu Han with a stern expression. Sensing an opportunity, Zhang Wei couldn\'t resist adding from behind, "She is also mine! You better keep your steps and tongue measured."

 ??

The people in the room, can\'t help but flinch and look towards Zhang Wei in surprise.
