There was a subsidiary named after Jinzhen Escort Magnet that engaged in a lot of activities and often mentioned the things he did with Jiang Zhen, and he even especially asked people to develop a game using the background of the Republic of China.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In order to pass the audit, as well as to make the people here accept it better, he needed to change all gers to women. He did so while gritting his teeth, as it was still the Republic of China he remembered. There was still He Cheng County, and Hexi village that were exactly the same as in the world he once lived in. There was also Jiang Zhen, Zhao Jinge, the Jinzhen Escort Agency, Zhao Mingzhu and Zhao Chengyu.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He did a lot of things, but unfortunately he still couldn&#8217;t find Jiang Zhen.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Was it because Jiang Zhen didn\u2019t see the message he left, or Jiang Zhen was never reincarnated in this world in the first place?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the thought of the latter, Zhao Jinge&#8217;s heart clenched and his facial expression became ugly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;Mr. Zhao, are you all right?&#8221; Lin Ruicheng, Zhao Jinge\u2019s assistant, looked at his boss anxiously.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt&#8217;s all right. Drive,&#8221;\u00a0 Zhao Jinge replied. He\u2019d just finished a business meeting and was heading home.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His family home was a little far away from the company, so on the way Zhao Jinge took out his cellphone to check the news.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although he was not an artist, because of his high value, he was also a well-known celebrity on the Internet known as a diamond bachelor. So there was a lot of news about him.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, he only glanced at those links casually before subconsciously searching for &#8220;Jiang Zhen.&#8221;\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There was a well-known academician named Jiang Zhen. In addition to him, the most related news was about the game character they developed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After taking a deep breath, Zhao Jinge decided to read other news.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Suddenly, a news update appeared on the site. Just this morning a group of thugs suddenly attacked people on the street. Just when people were panicking as they ran away, a young man was shot after taking down seven or eight thugs.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There was a thug with a child in his hands, and that young man let himself be shot to save the child. Later those thugs took out a crossbow.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, according to the news update, all the thugs have been arrested by the police. The young man who saved the child and other people was seriously injured and his life or death was still uncertain.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There were only a few pictures in the news so after Zhao Jinge glanced at them he stopped looking and closed his eyes to take a nap.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Soon after, Zhao Jinge returned to his residence.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He was a man with strong family values, so even though he was successful, he still lived with his parents. When he opened the front door he saw his parents and sister waiting for him to eat dinner together.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zhao Jinge came out to his parents when he was 12 or 13 years old.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the social environment at that time, most people didn&#8217;t even know what homosexuality was, so he didn\u2019t know how to tell his parents that he wanted to be with a man in the future.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At that time he saw a report about transgender people and after reading it, he went to talk with his parents, saying that he had always thought he was a woman too.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His parents were taken aback and could not believe that their son, who had always been their pride, would have such thoughts. But their child was always particularly well-behaved and still young, so they just thought that they should educate their child properly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a result, Zhao Jinge showed that he cared more about this matter than they did, acting very pitiful and not eating or drinking for several days.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Their son was laying still without eating and drinking, what else could they do?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Parents who love their children will always bow to their children. Zhao mother and father loved their son, so they finally could only accept the matter, intending to make even more money so in the future their son could have the sex change surgery.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Later, the Zhao couple gave birth to another child, a daughter, Zhao Xinan.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ever since Zhao Jinge threw a huge curveball at the Zhao couple, Zhao mother and father were worried. They worried that one day their son would want to have a sex change operation. However Zhao Jinge never had this intention and his various actions were very masculine. At least, he was not interested in skirts and cosmetics at all.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because of this, later the Zhao couple started to think he talked nonsense because of his young age only to be quickly corrected by Zhao Jinge. He said that he was mistaken and he was not a woman at heart but actually a homosexual, a man who liked other men.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With their experience from before, Zhao&#8217;s parents accepted this very quickly. Their son just liked men, it was definitely better than their son changing his sex!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Later, when Zhao Jinge become more and more powerful, Zhao&#8217;s father and mother would not interfere in his love life. Of course, it was inevitable that they would still say something.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Their son was in his early thirties but still didn\u2019t have a partner.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No it was not even about a partner, he clearly has never fallen in love before. Zhao father and mother started to think that their son might not even be gay but asexual. Since their daughter grew up, they have been exposed to a lot of knowledge by her.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;Brother, you&#8217;re back!&#8221; Seeing Zhao Jinge, Zhao Xinan jumped up at once.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zhao Xinan was a 16 year old high school student this year and the person she adored the most was her brother Zhao Qi&#8217;an.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;Mm-hmm.&#8221; Zhao Jinge smiled at her. He also liked his sister very much. Rather than a sister, she was more like a daughter or no\u2026a granddaughter.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cBrother, today we prepared your favorite dishes, come and eat!\u201d Zhao Xinan spoke again. She was already very hungry, so after greeting her brother she hurriedly sat at the table.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zhao Jinge smiled and sat down. All the dishes on the table in front of him were Jiang Zhen&#8217;s favorite dishes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Zhao family was used to talking as they ate, so Zhao Jinge mentioned the news he saw earlier about some troublemakers attacking people. \u201cMom, Dad, Xinan, you should be careful, and make sure to take bodyguards with you when you go out in the future, so you don&#8217;t get into an accident.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0&#8220;Brother, I will!&#8221; Zhao Xinan nodded and then added, \u201cThose thugs are really hateful! Fortunately, they met someone who was righteous. That person&#8217;s skills were very good. Its said that he is a veteran. I really hope that he is okay.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zhao Jinge nodded, he also appreciated such behavior.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After talking about this matter, Zhao Jinge no longer paid attention to it and in the evening posted on his \u201cZhao Jinge\u201d weibo as usual.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His current name was Zhao Qian so he could no longer use the name of Zhao Jinge but on internet all his net names were called Zhao Jinge.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also his weibo, in order to make it easier for Jiang Zhen to find him. He also applied under this name as his secondary account. He didn\u2019t pay much attention to other people on his account and only had a few fans, as he often posted.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;Jiang Zhen, I miss you very much. I also miss Mingzhu and Chengyu.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zhao Jinge always waited for someone to contact him, however it never happened.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He sighed and scrolled through the popular Weibos until he saw a reposted video of the brave man saving lives today. The video was said to have been taken by a car&#8217;s driving recorder nearby.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zhao Jinge clicked on that video.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The video was blurred so the face of the man was not very visible but his fighting style was still captured.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It might be nothing but\u2026\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That man&#8217;s movements looked too familiar!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zhao Jinge didn\u2019t think twice as he called his assistant: &#8220;Lin Ruicheng, help me check this person.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That person&#8217;s fighting style looked very similar to Jiang Zhen&#8217;s fighting style. Although Zhao Jinge felt that this investigation might bring nothing, he still asked for Ruicheng to check.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, the information couldn\u2019t be discovered at 01:30 in the morning but Zhao Jinge couldn\u2019t sleep.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Where was Jiang Zhen?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After tossing and turning, he wasn\u2019t able to fall asleep so Zhao Jinge went on the internet and watched the news again.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Internet had some information about that person, but because of the focus on privacy they didn\u2019t expose his real name. After searching for a long time, Zhao Jinge learned nothing new.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He was really baffled. If that person was Jiang Zhen, how could he not come to him?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Putting down his phone, Zhao Jinge went back to his bed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although he thought he made a crazy request, when he saw Lin Ruicheng in the company the next day, Zhao Jinge still immediately asked: &#8220;Lin Ruicheng, what I asked you to check last night, did you find anything out?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;Mr. Zhao, I&#8217;ve already looked into it.&#8221; Lin Ruicheng replied. \u201cThat person used to serve in the special forces, so a lot of his personal information is confidential. I could only learn that his name is Jiang Zhen.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zhao Jinge eyes opened wide as his whole body trembled.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>Edited by: Antiope1<\/p>\r\n<p>Proofreader:\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Support translation:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/bePatron?u=25191841\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"217\" height=\"51\" class=\"wp-image-338 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ontimestory.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/become_a_patron_button.png?resize=217%2C51\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 217px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 217\/51;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ko-fi.com\/lajnaa\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ontimestory.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/kofi3-3.png?resize=185%2C47\" alt=\"This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is kofi3-3.png\" width=\"185\" height=\"47\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 185px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 185\/47;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>\r\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Zhao Jinge was\u00a0 not satisfied with just becoming rich, after all he still hadn\u2019t found Jiang Zhen.\u00a0 He left a lot of information online.
