I thought the Lu family would take action soon, but I didn't expect that apart from the rumors about the Cao family, there would be no further news.

There was no evidence of the Lu family marrying into another family, nor was there any sign of the Lu family using any insidious tactics.

Instead, it seemed as if it had given up struggling and simply died out.

No matter what, the Lu family is an old and large family. Even if it goes downhill, it will be a very long process.

Those who were eyeing it covetously also took action secretly, hoping to bite off this behemoth and gain some benefits.

Ever since Lu Yueqi was arrested, no one has seen him active in any social or business occasions.

On the contrary, Father Lu was so busy that his hair turned a lot whiter.

Everyone was wondering what had happened to Lu Yueqi, especially the group of second-generation rich kids who just ate and drank all day long. Whenever they got together, they would always discuss it.

"Lu Yueqi was devastated after his time in prison?"

"Tsk, weren't you so arrogant before? You're actually a coward?"

Before, all the family members had been telling them to get along well with Lu Yueqi, but now, they don’t even have time to watch the fun.

"I was planning to meet him and make fun of him, what a pity..."

"Hey, how about finding a chance to visit him?"

He said he was visiting, but actually he just wanted to watch the fun.

However, this is just talk. No matter how bad they are, they won't come to cause trouble now.

Someone ran to Lin Sijie to ask.

"Mr. Lin, weren't you close to Lu Yueqi before? Do you have any news about him?"

Lin Sijie leaned on the back of the sofa, hugging a girl with a hot body and cool clothes. He shook the glass in his hand and his eyes fell on the girl's curves.

He said lazily, "No, the Lu family is so busy, he hasn't come out to play for a long time."

The woman in his arms twisted her waist and wrapped her arms around him like vines, but Lin Sijie was thinking about Quan Jiao.

Through live broadcast, he communicated a lot with Quan Jiao on the Internet.

The woman was innocent and her words were filled with a kind of stupidity that made people laugh, but she was also terribly stubborn about some things and was completely devoted to Lu Yueqi.

Out of some kind of evil taste, he has always kept in touch with Quan Jiao online.

But four days ago, the woman never replied.

I haven’t been on live broadcast for a long time.

It was strange that Lu Yueqi didn't show up either.

That night, when Lin Sijie was in the hotel room with his girlfriend and was about to have an in-depth conversation, his cell phone suddenly rang.

After the first ring, Lin Sijie ignored it. Just as he started communicating with the girl, the annoying and life-threatening phone ringing sounded again.

Lin Sijie lost interest and could only climb down from the bed and fish out his cell phone from a pile of scattered clothes.

He raised his brows when he saw the caller.

Lu Yueqi?

Lu Yueqi's voice was very hoarse, as if there was sand and gravel in his throat.

Lin Sijie was shocked, and what made him even more surprised was the reason why Lu Yueqi was looking for him.

They actually asked him to help get a few boats to go out to sea.

"What do you want a boat for?"

“…”

"Don't lie to me. The Lu family is in crisis right now. Why are you going out to sea instead of focusing on the company's affairs?"

If I remember correctly, the place Lu Yueqi mentioned is already outside the national border and is on the high seas.

What was he doing in that kind of place at this critical moment?

"Okay, okay, okay, I get it. I'll definitely get this done for you. Who's going to follow me?"

Lin Sijie hung up the phone, held the phone, and thought for a moment.

"Mr. Lin?" The female companion beside him was unhappy. She crawled over and lay on Lin Sijie's back. "Hurry up, I can't wait~"

-

Mo Qin hugged a soft pillow, lay on the desk, and yawned lazily.

She was woken up during her lunch break by a message about Lu Yueqi forming a fleet to go out to sea.

Going out to sea?

Mo Qin didn't think about it.

Although it wasn't time for the alarm to ring yet, it was almost there, so she luckily came out of the lounge, but she was still very sleepy.

It seems like I can never get enough sleep.

There were open documents on another large table, but the person who was supposed to be sitting there studying was nowhere to be found.

Mo Qin's thinking is slow and divergent, and Quan Yu seems to have never taken a nap?

Another day of envying the mermaid’s strong body.

Less than two minutes later, footsteps were heard outside. It was Quan Yu coming back.

He had a dark face and his hands hanging by his sides were clenched into fists, as if he was ready to fight. Combined with his tall and strong figure, he looked a bit intimidating.

In Mo Qin's eyes, he looked like a poor little thing who had suffered injustice.

Quan Yu of course noticed the gazes falling on him, and he looked at Mo Qin with resentment.

The mermaid's eyesight is better than that of humans. Even though he was still far away, he could still see Mo Qin's appearance at this moment.

There was a pillow on the table. The girl hugged the pillow, rested her chin on the soft pillow, and stared at him with a pair of watery and bright eyes.

She is less serious and solemn at work, and is very soft and cute.

His eyes dimmed slightly, and a fire rose in his heart, making his already restless heart even more chaotic.

Quan Yu did not return to his office, but pushed the door and entered Mo Qin's office.

Mo Qin lay there without moving, just watching him walk towards her.

"What's wrong?"

Quan Yu didn't say anything, but walked to Mo Qin's side, lowered his eyes to look at him twice, and even wanted to reach out and touch Mo Qin's cheek.

Mo Qin was stunned for a moment, then sat up. Quan Yu's hand was suspended in mid-air, slightly stagnant.

Mo Qin asked again: "What?"

Judging by human standards, Quan Yu is indeed very smart and learns quickly, but Mo Qin does not feel Quan Yu's love and thirst for business knowledge.

Mo Qin didn't know why Quan Yu came here, and she didn't have any requirements for him.

Although he was found to have sneaked into the lounge and stayed there for quite a while, he really hadn't done anything inappropriate in front of others.

Apart from anything else, during this period Quan Yu has been like a little assistant who studies hard and seizes opportunities.

Moreover, this guy just recently complained about his weak body...

What's wrong with me now?

Quan Yu pursed his lips and stared at Mo Qin with serious eyes.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Mo Qin stopped asking and leaned back in the chair, stuffing the pillow behind her waist for cushioning.

Thinking of the news just now, she reminded:

"Quan Jiao may have revealed the location of your people. Lu Yueqi is organizing a fleet to go out to sea."

Quan Yu finally spoke. He was quite confident in Quan Jiao.

"She won't tell secrets."

Mo Qin believed in her own intelligence more, but still asked curiously:

"Why?"

If there hadn't been news of the mermaid, how could Lu Yueqi abandon the precarious Lu family and go out to sea?

"Is the place you're hiding in very secret? Is it so that outsiders can't get in? Or is it very deep?"

I heard that due to the water pressure and light, the fish in the deep sea not only grow haphazardly but also have their eyes degenerated.

Judging from the mermaids' looks, they probably don't live too deep...
