Astin felt a slight warmth in her chest; it was like a pillow sent to a sleepy woman, and she could take care of them all at once.

Lin Ziyan didn't look up at her, but she was extremely nervous inside.

Even knowing that Lu Yunshen had made arrangements, she couldn't help but feel anxious.

Jiang Dong came with a mission.

This matter should have a resolution, and the west can achieve stable development.

Moreover, it is still too early to say whether Astin will live up to their expectations.

On the other side,

Lu Yunshen and Xiao Jin, who had been waiting on the cruise ship, were now in the cruise ship's monitoring room.

After putting down his luggage, Abudu came to the monitoring room with a solemn expression.

"Have you found anything?" His voice was hoarse, and his eyes were bloodshot.

When he was young, his mother betrayed his father, causing the entire clan to perish in that sweep.

Now in middle age, his sister hates him so much that she has driven him to suicide, and his wife has done the same thing as his mother. At this moment, he is filled with mixed feelings, anxious and burning with impatience, and blood blisters have already appeared on the corners of his lips.

“These people just secretly boarded the ship and changed into waiters’ uniforms,” Lu Yunshen pointed to the surveillance video.

Abudu glanced at them, his deep eyes darkening further. He recognized these people: "They're from the horse farm, Astin's family."

Xiao Jin and Lu Yun Shen exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with surprise.

family?

Wasn't Astin an orphan?

“Distant relatives.” Abudu immediately understood their confusion.

He had found it strange before, but because he had never suspected Astin, he had not investigated it further.

Astin has no parents, and he didn't want to ask her about her family, lest she be saddened by the thought.

However, he underestimated Astin. Now, upon reflection, Astin's appearance was too coincidental.

The surveillance camera suddenly switched views.

Abudu clenched his fists; the video showed Astin and one of the men.

Behind the safety door, the two shared a passionate kiss.

Astin was pinned against the wall, the man R pinching her, knowing her every sensitive spot intimately.

"Do you think we can succeed?" Astin asked, pushing him away, her eyes gleaming.

It's just around the corner from the restaurant; it's very secluded.

The two children were playing with Lu Yunshen's children, and Lin Ziyan was watching over them, so she wasn't worried at all.

"That good-for-nothing Qin Xiao is lucky that the leader took a liking to him, but he doesn't appreciate it at all. He deserves to be kicked out and used as cannon fodder." The man held the soft skin in his hand, his gaze fixed on the snow-white expanse, his eyes burning with desire.

Astin's whole body went limp from his caresses. His reason told him it was too risky, but his body couldn't resist.

The two were overcome with passion and, oblivious to everything else, disappeared into the darkness.

The camera footage was blurry, but you could tell what they were doing just by looking at their movements.

After they finished, they intertwined their necks, exchanged a few words, and then separated.

When Astin returned to the restaurant, Abudu was already sitting at the table eating lunch.

She glanced at him, didn't see anything wrong, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

That was too risky; she shouldn't have complied.

Unbeknownst to Astin, the blush on her face had not yet faded, and there was still a hint of allure in her eyes.

Abudu ate slowly and deliberately, finding the food tasteless.

He considered all sorts of possibilities, but he never imagined that Astin and that man would be so intimate.

The green grass on his head had penetrated deep into his hair follicles, but he was completely unaware of it.

Now he could understand his father's anger; no one could tolerate such humiliation.

He even suspected that neither of the two children was his.

Every time he woke up, he couldn't remember what it felt like to be with Astin.

I didn't think much of it before, assuming it was just drunken amnesia.

Now that I think about it, when did he ever get so drunk that he passed out?

Abudu lowered his eyes, suppressing all his emotions. His heart was filled with anger, and his face grew colder.

He wanted to see what tricks Astin and his crew could pull.

It looks like they're putting all their eggs in one basket and taking a gamble.

"Abudu, you watch the two children, I'm going back to the suite to rest." Astin felt her face flush and lowered her head, not daring to look at him.

"Hmm." Abudu didn't ask any more questions and simply responded.

Astin immediately got up and left the restaurant, her steps slow, the intense gazes on her back making her feel like she was being pricked by needles.

She only breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the restaurant and closing the door.

"You can't be this crazy again... Ugh..." Astin had just finished muttering when he was covered in the mouth and pulled aside.

"you…"

Sunlight spilled onto the ground, and two dark figures disappeared...

………

As night fell, Astin woke up and was stunned for a few seconds before he came to his senses.

"Hurry up and get dressed, they're having a barbecue on the deck, they didn't come to your suite." The man said this and left.

on deck,

Abudu and Lu Yunshen were drinking, neither of them speaking, each lost in their own thoughts.

Xiao Jin was still in the monitoring room at this time, and sent someone to follow those people.

"Abudu, you seem even more profound than before," Jiang Dong said with a smile, sitting down with a plate of grilled meat.

He was the only one unaware of the situation. They didn't have time to explain to Jiang Dong, and they didn't want to embarrass Abudu.

His wife, who had been with him for many years, was having an affair with another man, and was even cheating on him right under his nose. It's truly remarkable that he's been able to tolerate it until now.

The cruise ship is about to sail into international waters. It's pitch black all around, and the ship's lights dot the sea, twinkling like stars.

The sea was calm, with ripples on the surface and the wind was not strong.

"Let's drink." Abudu clinked glasses with him, a thick chill spreading in his eyes.

As soon as Astin appeared on the deck, he locked onto him immediately.

Lin Ziyan was with the children in the barbecue area, where several waiters who were changing clothes were skilled and even had guns hidden.

As Astin approached, his eyes lit up when he saw Jiang Dong.

She decided that relying on herself was better than relying on a man, and she planned to take matters into her own hands.

Now that they are all off guard, it's the perfect opportunity.

"It looks like a ship is approaching over there!" Jiang Dong suddenly stood up and looked into the distance.

This is international waters, and he couldn't understand why the cruise ship would sail here.

"Bang, bang..."

A series of gunshots suddenly rang out, and several bullet holes appeared in the pillar next to Jiang Dong.

The bullet came from a nearby ship; if Jiang Dong hadn't reacted quickly, he would be dead by now.

Astin tried to grab Mengmeng, but was pushed by a waiter and ended up grabbing her two children instead.

At this moment, they couldn't care less about anything else; as long as they could threaten Abudu, they were willing to use their own children as leverage.

In her mind, she could have another child, but if she missed this opportunity, there would be no next time.

Astin looked around and saw no one else, a sense of panic rising within him.

She had already pulled out a pistol and pressed it against the two children's heads; there was no turning back.

Abudu watched this scene with a cold eye, finding it all laughable.

"Abudu, shoot Jiang Dong and Lu Yunshen, or I'll shoot!" Astin said nervously, hugging the two children's necks tighter and tighter.

Lin Ziyan covered the eyes of the two children and hugged her younger sisters to prevent them from seeing.

Lu Yunshen's men have already escorted them off the deck.
