Chapter 74

As more and more people were strolling around the bar street at night, Guan Ying almost lost focus when he chased out of GoldenRose. Fortunately, he heard Master Liu shouting "Be careful!" in the distance, which allowed him to locate the general direction. He followed the sound and finally saw the three of them fighting in a group.

But the man was so tall and strong that even Zheng Juyong and Master Liu combined were no match for him. In a moment, the man slipped away again and headed down a small alley.

"Zheng Juyong! Who is he? Should we call the police?" Guan Ying shouted from a distance before he arrived.

Zheng Juyong turned around and looked at her: "You can't call the police!" Then he followed Brother Liu into the alley, and Guan Ying had to try hard to keep up.

The foreigner was in excellent physical condition and seemed very familiar with the roads. He made several detours out of the downtown area and then ran along a small, low section of the city wall. The journey was exhausting, and Master Liu gradually became exhausted. He stopped, leaning against the earthen wall, bent over and gasping for breath.

Zheng Juyong was in hot pursuit, and as he ran he turned back and called out, "Brother Liu, how are you?"

Master Liu had no choice but to lift his feet again, but his legs felt like they were filled with lead and he couldn't move any faster. He could only shout from behind, "I'm fine. The beach is just ahead. There are yachts over there. Don't let him get away. Go after him! Don't wait for me!"

Seeing that Brother Liu was fine, Zheng Juyong chased after him alone.

Guan Ying passed by Master Liu and asked with concern, "Brother Liu, how are you? What's going on?"

Brother Liu's mouth was dry. He was worried that Zheng Juyong couldn't catch the other party alone. Seeing Guan Ying catching up, he pushed her forward without any time to explain and said, "Catch him first. Go and help him!"

After running past the city wall and through a dimly lit oilfield, the foreigner darted into a bay and jumped onto a row of yachts. Zheng Juyong pursued him closely, following closely at every step.

The foreigner jumped around on the deck, stepping over one boat after another. Seeing that he still couldn't get rid of the person behind him, he had no choice but to turn around and kick the boat behind him fiercely, causing it to capsize. This way, Zheng Juyong would be delayed for a while and he could buy a few seconds to start the boat.

Because he was beaten by Daniel two days ago, Zheng Juyong's eyes were still swollen. It was not easy for him to catch up through a crack of his eyes. Now he was tossing and turning on the deck of the boat, like a blind man crossing the river, unable to find his feet.

Just when he was shaken and about to fall off the boat, someone supported him from behind. Thinking that it was Brother Liu who had caught up with him, Zheng Juyong grabbed the man's shoulders and finally stood firm with the help of his strength. Suddenly, he felt that the height was not right and realized that the person was Guan Ying.

Suddenly feeling the pressure from him, Guan Ying felt as if her shoulder was about to be dislocated, and she gritted her teeth in pain.

When the foreigner saw that someone was catching up with him, he took advantage of the opportunity to get on another boat and bent down to get into the cabin.

"I'm sorry, I thought it was Brother Liu..."

"Stop talking nonsense, the person is running away!" Guan Ying endured the pain and rushed out first.

The yacht started moving at an extremely fast speed. Just when they were unable to catch up, Zheng Juyong hugged Guan Ying from behind and flew onto the deck.

"Ah!" After this collision, Guan Ying suspected that his shoulder was really dislocated!

The yacht quickly sailed out twenty or thirty meters away from the shore. The foreigner was frightened by the shaking of the boat and looked back, only to find that the two men had followed him and rushed onto the deck, as if they were risking their lives.

"Jesus! You almost died! You guys crazy I already said, it's none of your business! Just leave me alone, please! "

The foreigner could easily have thrown the two men off the deck by simply continuing to sail. However, that was clearly too dangerous. Although the yacht was still in shallow water, the waves were strong at night. Without good stamina, it was not certain that they could have safely swum back to shore, twenty or thirty meters away. This showed that he was not a bad guy. Remembering his heroic act against Cui Shanshan in Golden Rose, Guan Ying was even more puzzled as to why Zheng Juyong was so persistent in pursuing this man.

Being in the same boat, Zheng Juyong felt relieved. He swayed and sat up. "Mr. Fred, I've promised Mr. Kassim to invite you back to his sister. Miss Sophia is waiting for you! Even if you decided to break up with her, you should have talked to her clearly. Now, you're running like a coward!"

"Again, that's none of your business! And, don't judge me or try to provoke me! I won't go back with you guys!" After the foreigner said this, he turned over and jumped into the sea.

No one could have imagined that after running all this way, he would dare to swim back to the shore at night. A foreigner actually played a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain. This was completely beyond Zheng Juyong's expectations.

Without time to think, Zheng Juyong was about to jump with him.

Guan Ying hurriedly hugged his thighs: "You are really asking for death! Do you have the strength to swim back like him? Even if you have the strength to swim to the shore, how much strength do you have left to catch up with him? Call Brother Liu and ask him to block him on the shore!"

The sea was rippling and the waves were rolling. Zheng Juyong did not have Fred's good physical strength, and once he went into the water, he would be stimulated by the sea water and it was hard to predict whether he could open his eyes. What Guan Ying said was very pertinent. He was indeed impulsive.

"Okay, okay, I'm right there. I won't let him run away again!" Brother Liu was panting on the phone, but he vowed.

Zheng Juyong squinted hard towards the shore, but there was no sign of Brother Liu. Frowning, he changed his tone and said, "Brother Liu, I'm afraid you won't be able to stop him like this. Stay on the shore for a while and follow him stealthily. See where he's staying tonight. Don't alert him."

Brother Liu: "No problem, leave it to me! What about you guys?"

"We are trapped on the yacht, but it doesn't matter. I will try to drive the yacht back later!" After hanging up the phone, Zheng Juyong helped Guan Ying into the cabin.

"Can you drive a yacht?" Guan Ying asked worriedly.

Zheng Juyong narrowed his swollen eyes and said, "I've only driven a small motorboat... I guess they're all about the same!"

"That's a big difference, okay?" Guan Ying had a bad feeling in her heart.

Zheng Juyong took off his robe, revealing his inner clothes. He was only wearing a white vest and overalls. No one knew why he deliberately dressed up as a local. Guan Ying thought that it would not be too late to distract him at this time and wait until the boat returned to the shore to slowly ask him clearly.

My goodness! The yacht's two blue screens displayed a sea state chart and parameters, and he couldn't understand either of them... The control panel was completely different from that of a jet ski, but thankfully it resembled a car's steering wheel, with a gear lever and a row of buttons next to it, one of which was always start! With the steering wheel in hand and the gear lever nearby, turning the car and driving for twenty or thirty meters wouldn't be difficult...

Seeing him studying it for a long time, Guan Ying yawned and asked, "Can you do it?"

"For us men, these vehicles are all self-taught." Zheng Juyong straightened his back and, as if taking a gamble, pressed one of the buttons. Hey, Fred hadn't shut down everything; he just had to press the start button!

"Wow, that's awesome!" As the engine sounded, Guan Ying exclaimed in surprise behind him.

This praise was like the sound of a war drum, and Zheng Juyong was deeply moved, making his move even more decisive. The yacht suddenly shot out, and due to inertia, Guan Ying fell backwards. Frightened, she screamed, "Ah, how can it be so fast? You must be slow when turning or you will capsize!"

I guess Fred was in a hurry to run and drove at high speed, so he rushed out quickly as soon as he started. The yacht quickly rushed inward for another 20 to 30 meters, and if it rushed forward further, it would be close to the deep sea area.

Turning quickly was too dangerous, but when she tried to shift the two gear levers, she hit some button. The boat lurched forward even faster, the bow surf lifted upward, and Guan Ying slid toward the rear cabin due to inertia. Just then, she caught a glimpse of the increasingly blurred coastline in the distance from the window, and her fear grew even greater: "Stop, stop!"

Fortunately, the start and stop buttons were pressed correctly, and the yacht quickly came to a stop. Zheng Juyong breathed a sigh of relief. Ahead lay the pitch-black sea, dotted with tiny lights on the horizon, likely marking oil wells. He had to be cautious before diving in.

"Why are you so scared? I won't let anything happen to you." He turned back to the cabin to help Guan Ying up. Guan Ying's shoulder was hurt by inertia and she slumped over on the bench, looking like she was too scared to get up.

"If you don't know how to drive, then don't drive!" Guan Ying sat up straight with his arms around his shoulders and looked out the window. The sea was pitch black and he was really a little scared.

"We have to give it a try. Floating like this isn't a solution." Zheng Juyong helped her up and wanted to study the operating panel again.

Guan Ying was truly terrified. She feared he would drag her out to sea. If the signal went out, wouldn't she be stranded in the vast ocean? She quickly pulled out her phone to check. Luckily, there were still two bars of signal! But if he pushed again, even those two would be gone.

"No, no, no!" Guan Ying practically hugged his waist. "I know you can do it, okay? It's just too dark at night. Wait... wait a few hours until it's daybreak, then you can try again... The waves are pushing towards the shore, and you won't be afraid of drifting for a few hours... Don't, please don't do it!"

Zheng Juyong patted her hand and soothed her, "We can't spend the whole night in this cabin. Let me try again. I think I pushed the wrong lever just now. The other gear lever must be in reverse, which is much faster than turning around."

Guan Ying hugged him tightly: "Goodbye, goodbye! Your eyes are swollen, and it's dark here. Don't hit any zone lines later. There are marks floating on the sea. What if it's an oil well? It's too dangerous. Let's wait until dawn to see clearly. It's safer to wait a few hours!"

Seeing that she was so uneasy, Zheng Juyong had no choice but to sit down with her.
