After hearing Wen Lu's words, Wang Jinyu knew what was going on. He chuckled, took the box from Wen Lu's hand, glanced at the contents, and narrowed his eyes slightly. There were quite a few good things inside.

Back home, Wen Lu took a shower and lay down. Just as she settled down, her phone started vibrating incessantly. She picked it up and saw it was a voice call from Boss Qiao.

Wen Lu sat up in bed, answered the voice call, and heard Boss Qiao's excited voice coming from the phone.

"You're alive again? Do you know how long I grieved because of your death?"

Hearing Qiao Laoda's words, Wen Lu felt a warmth in her heart. She felt that she had made the right decision to recognize Qiao Laoda as her elder brother.

“He’s still alive, but something happened along the way. I heard about your trip to F Continent. Thank you, Boss Joe.”

When Boss Qiao on the other end of the phone heard Wen Lu say these words, he suddenly fell silent. He never did anything to thank anyone.

"I don't want to hear words of thanks. If you ever return to Mingyunzhou, remember to take me with you. I want to settle accounts with them properly."

Boss Qiao was one of the few people who knew Wen Lu's true identity. If he hadn't known Wen Lu's identity, he wouldn't have fallen into the trap set by those people.

"Alright, then Boss Qiao, take good care of yourself. Don't wait until I need your help before you've fully recovered."

Wen Lu knew how serious Qiao's illness was, so he left some medicine for Qiao before he left. However, none of the medicines were particularly effective, so Qiao's recovery would still take some time.

As Qiao listened to Wen Lu's words, he let out a hearty laugh on the other end of the phone.

"Don't worry about that. Did that little girl get home safely? If it weren't for her, I might have died in there. Also, Fireworks asked me to apologize to the little girl for him. The situation was urgent at the time, and Fireworks might have been a bit offensive."

"Yeah, I heard about it, but I can understand. No matter what, as long as you get caught, that's fine. Brother Qiao, are the people you had there still there?"

"Yes, they're taking good care of you. I can send you some if you need it."

"No need, just keep him with you for now. I'll pick him up when I'm done with my work and return to Mingyun Continent."

Wen Lu chuckled softly as she said this. As long as this person was still around, that was fine. She still wanted to get answers to some specific questions from him.

Wen Lu chatted casually with Boss Qiao for a few minutes. When he saw Wang Jinyu walk in from outside, he hung up the phone and frowned as he looked at the medicine in Wang Jinyu's hand.

"Yan Luo asked Wang Xiuli to bring this back to you. He said he needs to observe Yan Hao's condition at the hospital recently, so he doesn't have much time to take care of you. He hopes you can take your medicine on time."

"I don't want to take it. I feel pretty good lately, and I don't want to feel uncomfortable after taking medicine."

Looking at the medicine in Wang Jinyu's palm, Wen Lu knew what it was. She really didn't want to live in a daze every day anymore; she just wanted to enjoy a normal life.

Looking at Wen Lu's expression, Wang Jinyu smiled helplessly. He casually placed the medicine on the bedside table, climbed onto the bed, and pulled Wen Lu into his arms.

He said, "Do you think you can go without your medication right now? I'm taking you to F State the day after tomorrow, and we'll only stay there for two days at most before heading to S City. How can I feel at ease if your health doesn't allow it?"

Wen Lu understood Wang Jinyu's worries. He was concerned that he would be in danger if she wasn't by his side. Wen Lu got up somewhat helplessly, picked up the pills on the bedside table, put them in her mouth, took a sip of water, and swallowed them.

After swallowing the pill, Wen Lu lay back in Wang Jinyu's arms. She gently kissed Wang Jinyu's lips, then lay on his arm and said somewhat resignedly.

"Alright, it's getting late. We don't need to do anything today. Let's go to sleep."

Hearing Wen Lu's deliberately provocative tone, Wang Jinyu chuckled softly, lowered his head, and gently kissed Wen Lu's eyes. He spoke in a gentle tone.

"We have a long future ahead of us, this moment will not be the last. Goodnight, my darling."

The phrase "there's plenty of time" left Wen Lu speechless; she didn't know what else to say.

Before Wen Lu could think of anything else to say, she drifted off to sleep. Looking at Wen Lu sleeping soundly, Wang Jinyu felt a pang of heartache. He didn't know when Wen Lu would recover and be able to live like a normal person, free from the torment of illness.

Seeing that Wen Lu had fallen asleep, Wang Jinyu pulled his arm out, helped Wen Lu lie down, covered her with a blanket, and then walked out of the bedroom.

As soon as Wang Jinyu entered the living room, he saw Gu Yao standing there. It was clear that Gu Yao had something to say to him.

Wang Jinyu hesitated for a moment, narrowed his eyes, and his gaze fell on Gu Yao.

"What's up?"

"Well, I heard from Wang Xiuli that Wen Lu is going back to F Continent with you. I wonder if you could take me with you? I know that our Shadow Alliance and your W Organization are not on good terms, but you've already taken my boss away, so can't we be considered family now? It wouldn't be too much for me to go to F Continent with Wen Lu, would it?"

Wang Jinyu looked at Gu Yao without saying anything. In fact, when Gu Yao risked her life to save Wen Lu, all of Wang Jinyu's prejudices against Gu Yao disappeared. He also felt that the Shadow Alliance and the W Organization could coexist peacefully.

"Shouldn't you ask Wen Lu about this? If Wen Lu is willing, then do as you please. I have no objection to this matter."

With that, Wang Jinyu turned and walked towards the study. Gu Yao stood aside, pondering Wang Jinyu's words. For some reason, she felt that Wang Jinyu was passing the buck, as if he hadn't given her a clear answer to her question.

Just as Wang Jinyu returned to his study, Wang Xiuli walked in from outside with the document in his hand, placed it in front of Wang Jinyu, and asked about another matter.

"Fourth Master, are you really going to take Miss Wen to our base? In what capacity do you know that our base is not suitable for Miss Wen to go there?"

Listening to Wang Xiuli's hesitant words, Wang Jinyu raised his head and glanced at Wang Xiuli, then lowered his head again, flipped through the documents in his hand, picked up the pen beside him, and signed his name on the document.

"Is it inappropriate? Is there anything inappropriate about it? Actually, I think it's fine. Do you know about the Spade Society alliance?"

While they were talking about Wen Lu, Wang Xiuli didn't understand why Wang Jinyu brought up the Black Spade Society. Of course, she knew about the Black Spade Society. It was the richest alliance besides Wang Jinyu, practically monopolizing underground auctions all over the world, and she'd heard it had many other unknown businesses.
