Chapter 69

At this moment, a man in a suit ran quickly towards Wang Hongcheng and said something to him. Then, three military Beijing Jeep 212s drove up from not far away. The three military 212 Jeeps stopped near the starting point of the runway, about three to five meters apart from each other. At this time, several men in military uniforms also entered the scene and walked into the crowd of people chatting in groups. Jia Hongjian, from a distance, caught a glimpse of two men with the rank of major general and five or six with the rank of brigadier general.

"Let's go, it's probably about to start." Jia Hongjian called to Ye Jing and then quickly walked towards the crowd. As the two of them just reached the edge of the crowd, Wang Hongcheng opened a bottle filled with green liquid that he had been carrying, and then dripped some of the green liquid into two of the three red plastic buckets carried by the soldiers.

Then, the three soldiers each carried their buckets back to their vehicles and entered the driver's seat. Next, each soldier held a tube, apparently connecting the engine's fuel intake to the red buckets. Jia Hongjian, seeing this, understood the general arrangement: two of the vehicles were using the so-called water-based fuel, while the one on the far right was using gasoline as a control group.

Then, Wang Hongcheng had the soldiers open the hoods of the left and middle vehicles and gave them two small items. The soldiers then returned to the engines, removed something from inside, and screwed the two small items onto the engines. "Are these the catalysts?" Jia Hongjian heard his father ask at this moment. Wang Hongcheng did not speak but only nodded and then turned to leave. Seeing Wang Hongcheng leave, the crowd of onlookers also moved along.

At this moment, Jia Hongjian felt an opportunity and reached out to grab Ye Jing's wrist, then quickly walked towards the middle jeep. Ye Jing, confused, followed him. She was about to ask Jia Hongjian a question but suddenly noticed that the boy who had a mischievous expression just a moment ago now looked extremely serious!

Ye Jing followed Jia Hongjian, noticing that his brows were slightly furrowed, and his face was serious and solemn, completely different from the somewhat frivolous, mischievous, and carefree bad boy he had been before. Now, Jia Hongjian looked as if... as if he had the overly serious and stern demeanor of a researcher, someone who was so honest and straightforward that he seemed to lack any sense of humor...

At this moment, she saw Jia Hongjian suddenly turn to look at her and urge her, "Be serious, be confident. Now we are Wang Hongcheng's assistants. I'm in charge of the research, and you are his secretary, just back from abroad." Ye Jing, for some reason, subconsciously followed Jia Hongjian's instructions and immediately became serious. If people who knew her well saw her like this, they would be incredibly surprised—this troublesome young lady actually listened to someone?

Ye Jing maintained her serious demeanor and followed Jia Hongjian to the middle jeep. She saw him anxiously knock on the car door and then say to the soldier in the driver's seat, "Comrade, please help me remove the catalyst from this car and put the original parts back. Also, tell the comrade in the left car to do the same..."

Damn! Ye Jing finally understood what Jia Hongjian was doing! He was going to cut off the fuel supply at the source! And he was doing it so brazenly? Instantly, Ye Jing, a girl as clever as Huang Rong, felt her hair stand on end and her pupils dilate. She instinctively turned to look at Wang Hongcheng and the others.

When she saw that not only Wang Hongcheng but also all the onlookers were facing away from them, Ye Jing felt her heart rate increase, adrenaline surging, and the excitement was almost making her tremble all over!

However, when she turned back, she saw the soldier on the car looking suspiciously at Jia Hongjian and then at her. "I am the technician for this experiment, and she is Mr. Wang's secretary. Please, comrade, cooperate with us. We are conducting a comparative test. A leader just suggested that we see what the effect would be without the catalyst, using only the water-based fuel..."

As Jia Hongjian spoke, Ye Jing observed him from the side. He appeared professional, confident, and a bit impatient, truly resembling a researcher who was not good at dealing with people and had a bad temper. "Will the soldier believe him? If it fails, the soldier will definitely shout, and then the leaders will see us. Can this succeed?" Ye Jing had never done anything so bold or exciting in her life. She felt all her muscles tense up! She tried hard to control her body to prevent it from betraying her!

"Yes!" After a two-second suspicious look, the soldier clearly obeyed the order. He quickly got out of the car, ran to the left car, and spoke to the soldier there. Then, the two of them quickly opened the hoods and removed the catalyst components.

Seeing this, Ye Jing felt as if a ticking clock was ringing in her ear. She stared nervously at the group of leaders and Wang Hongcheng, relieved that no one turned around! One second, two seconds, three seconds... Why isn't it done yet? Why are these soldiers so slow! This clever girl felt like time was dragging on! She was sure that at any moment, one of the leaders would casually turn around and ruin everything!

"Report! The catalyst components have been removed!" At this moment, the two soldiers from the cars suddenly reported, and then they ran to Jia Hongjian and placed a small component in his hand. "What are you reporting for? Quickly put the original parts back!" Ye Jing, extremely anxious, shouted loudly.

"Hey! Secretary Ye, don't be so impatient. The PLA comrades are here to help us voluntarily. They are not our subordinates, so we can only request their cooperation, not order them around." Jia Hongjian, however, turned to criticize Ye Jing calmly, then he smiled apologetically at the two soldiers, "Sorry, comrades. Secretary Ye has a heavy task today and is a bit impatient. Please don't mind. Now, could you please put the original parts back? Thank you..."

"Guaranteed to complete the task!" The two soldiers, reassured by Jia Hongjian, didn't think of any other possibilities and just laughed and agreed. They quickly put the original parts back on the engine and closed the hoods. Jia Hongjian and Ye Jing turned to look at the distant crowd, and no one had turned around! The plan to switch the components was a perfect success!

"Secretary Ye, let's go back and report." Jia Hongjian called to Ye Jing, who was now drenched in cold sweat, and they walked briskly towards the crowd.

After walking about a hundred meters, Ye Jing suddenly felt weak in her legs. She grabbed Jia Hongjian's arm and hung onto him. "I can't... I can't..." The girl, who was usually as clever as Huang Rong, was now drenched in sweat, and her batwing shirt was sticking to her body, outlining her attractive figure.

Jia Hongjian noticed that the girl's hands were trembling, and her legs were shaking as if she had just experienced a 300-round battle in bed, leaving her completely exhausted and on the verge of pleading for mercy...

Squatting on the ground, Ye Jing trembled all over, reliving the excitement of the moment. She felt like she had never experienced anything so thrilling in her life. The tension made her want to scream, and now the relief made her want to cry, but the thought of the upcoming exposure of the fraud made her want to laugh! Mixed emotions swirled in her body, making her feel itchy all over! She slowly lifted her head to look at Jia Hongjian, and the boy, who looked ordinary, now seemed much more appealing. Recalling his serious and professional demeanor, and his mischievous expression earlier, Ye Jing thought Jia Hongjian actually looked quite handsome... especially since he had given her such an unforgettable and thrilling experience!

"How are you? Can you walk?" Jia Hongjian asked gently. Ye Jing, with her big eyes, looked at Jia Hongjian and nodded sharply. She tried to stand up but wobbled and sat back down...

Seeing the determined girl trying again, Jia Hongjian smiled and said, "There's no way you can rest here now. Let's pretend you sprained your ankle, and I'll carry you."

Ye Jing looked at her low-top Converse sneakers. "Nonsense! How many women in the world sprain their ankles while wearing flat sneakers? If you want to carry me, just say so, don't use such a [cute] excuse..." Ye Jing thought to herself, but her face showed a blush of shyness and excitement from being pursued, and her lips responded, "What? Carry me?"

Jia Hongjian, a man experienced with women, understood the subtext. As long as a woman didn't outright refuse or politely decline, she was maintaining her dignity and trying to make the man more proactive, presenting herself as the noble and cold beauty being pursued. This was a classic case of scarcity marketing. "Come on! If we don't go now, we'll be seen. Come!" Jia Hongjian said, pulling the girl's hands over his shoulders and squatting down.

As the girl leaned against his back, Jia Hongjian felt the soft and warm pressure of her chest through her thin shirt, and he lifted her legs, which were encased in tight, form-fitting leggings, with his hands...
