Chapter 684 Love Has a Way Home (5)

Jia Tian had also heard about Pei Hong's ruthlessness.

Pei Hong never minded inflicting heavy losses on both sides, and when necessary, she could even drag the other party down with her.

So in the underworld, she was Sister Hong, whom no one dared to mess with. After all, when you're out in the game, everyone values ​​their life and wants to live a few more years.

Jia Tian slowly released Jiang Mianmian, staring at Pei Hong with a cold smile on his lips.

Pei Hong's heartbeat was also somewhat irregular.

Offending Jia Tian will make her life difficult from now on. This old fox won't openly target her, but who knows how much he might cause her trouble behind the scenes?

But given the current situation, she's definitely going to offend this person!

It wasn't for Jiang Mianmian, but for herself, for her own redemption.

Jia Tian's laughter grew louder as he stepped forward and patted Pei Hong on the shoulder.

"We're all from the same gang, Mr. Pei, don't get angry! I don't want this girl!"

Pei Hong smiled, the bright red of her lips highlighting her shrewdness and assertiveness.

"Brother Tian wants some pretty young girls, I'll pick two and send them to you later." She spoke clearly, "But these two, I'm sorry, I can't accept! They're really good prospects, I can't bear to part with them!"

"Understood, understood!" Jia Tian replied with a perfunctory smile.

Pei Hong gave her subordinates a look, and they immediately took Jiang Mianmian and Lu Ran away.

“Brother Tian,” Pei Hong tossed her hair, “if I remember correctly, I rented this half of the boat!”

Jia Tian chuckled twice, understanding her order to leave, and quickly left with his entourage.

Pei Hong looked at his retreating figure and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sister Hong," her trusted confidante approached and whispered in her ear, "what should we do with those two girls?"

"Settle them in first, and clean them up first," Pei Hong instructed. "Also, spread the word that these two girls should do some chores! They've already offended Brother Tian; if we don't teach them a lesson, they probably won't learn their lesson!"

A trusted aide, Agui, nodded, his expression slightly somber.

She had followed Pei Hong for many years and knew that Sister Hong was not the kind of person who would easily turn against someone for the sake of a girl.

Today, things have escalated to this point with Jia Tian. Although the two gangs aren't saying anything on the surface, a grudge has already been formed.

We'll be sailing at sea for quite a while now, and we'll be running into each other all the time, so we'll have to be careful.

Pei Hong made the two maids do the rough work to show Jia Tian and his gang.

This punishment was also a way to protect the two girls.

"What are you still doing here?" Pei Hong tilted her head and looked at him. "Aren't you going to do something?"

Agui smiled bitterly, "Sister Hong, those two girls won't understand your good intentions if you do this."

"Why should I need their understanding?" Pei Hong laughed self-deprecatingly. "We're all from different paths to begin with, so it's best if we all stay safe!"

"But I think those two girls are no pushovers!"

Pei Hong froze, speechless.

Over the next two or three days, Pei Hong was prepared for the two girls to throw a tantrum, cry, and threaten suicide.

However, the reality was beyond her expectations.

Jiang Mianmian and Lu Ran not only didn't cry or make a fuss, but they also ate and slept on time, were quick and efficient at doing rough work, and greeted people politely.

When Agui told Pei Hong all this, she still couldn't quite believe it.

“It’s true.” A-Gui smiled. “These two girls are quite adaptable and smart. They know that they can’t confront each other head-on at this time.”

“Of course,” Pei Hong muttered to herself, “She doesn’t even know who her father is…”

"Sister Hong?"

“Oh,” Pei Hong snapped out of her reverie, “keep an eye on them and make sure nothing goes wrong.”

"Yes." Agui nodded, then leaned closer and lowered his voice, "Sister Hong, come to the secret room."

Pei Hong glanced at her, then followed her without making a sound.

The two arrived at a secret room at the bottom of the ship's cabin. A-Gui closed the door and handed his phone to Pei Hong.

There were several recorded phone calls inside. Pei Hong listened to them and the voices were familiar.

That hoarse voice belongs to Jia Tian.

And another one...

Pei Hong narrowed her eyes, a fierce glint suddenly flashing in them!

"Lu Ming?"

“Yes,” Agui said. “These recordings were taken the day before the two girls were sent here.”

Pei Hong gave a cold laugh.

Lu Ming called her then, saying he would bring two girls for her, both top-notch.

Although Pei Hong's business wasn't exactly clean, she was cautious in her actions. After repeated questioning, Lu Ming finally revealed that the two girls were actually Lu Lishan's daughter and his own daughter!

Pei Hong was immediately shocked.

Even tigers don't eat their cubs; this Lu Ming is worse than an animal!

However, this recording once again proved that Lu Ming was a two-faced scoundrel! He made a deal with her one minute and then immediately leaked the information to Jia Tian the next.

Pei Hong then realized that Lu Ming must have known that Jia Tian was also on this ship, which was why he had someone knock the two girls unconscious and bring them to this ship.

With Jia Tian's cataracts and glaucoma, how could he possibly recognize Jiang Mianmian as Lin Yuqing's daughter at a glance?

It turns out that Lu Ming had shown him the photos a long time ago!

He really went to any lengths to ruin those two girls!

Pei Hong's hands were clenched tightly, her brows were slightly furrowed, and the corners of her mouth twitched involuntarily.

Twenty years ago, she was unaware that Lu Ming was willing to pay a high price, so she obtained for him a drug commonly used to abduct children.

Unexpectedly, it was Lu Lishan's daughter who was harmed...

Pei Hong closed her eyes and sighed deeply.

"No matter what, let's save them first."
