Qiao Jiyang rolled up his trousers, grabbed the edge of the boat, and prepared to jump. The blonde, blue-eyed beauty next to him quickly grabbed him and said, "Honey, don't worry, there's a rescue operation underway. They're all professional lifeguards. Your parents will be fine."
"No! Let me go! I need to save my dad and mom, I need to save them, I need to save them!"
"Dad! Mom!"
Qiao Jiyang struggled a few times but couldn't break free. Crying, he tumbled off the edge of the boat and ran downstairs.
A stunning blonde woman with blue eyes chased after him, shouting, "Mr. Joe, where are you going?"
Qiao Jiyang cried out loudly, "I'll go save my mom and dad!"
Running all the way to the first floor, Qiao Jiyang shouted, "Dad, Mom, I've come to save you!"
Without hesitation, he jumped from the first-floor deck into the turbulent sea.
The blonde, blue-eyed beauty panicked and grabbed the person next to her, shouting for help: "Help! Young Master Qiao has jumped into the sea! Young Master Qiao has jumped into the sea!"
Those nearby quickly jumped into the sea to rescue the person.
A few minutes later, Qiao Jiyang, who couldn't swim, was pulled out of the water by the lifeguard. He was unconscious because he had swallowed too much water, so the lifeguard performed artificial respiration on him and he finally came back to life.
But the George Cornelians had vanished without a trace.
After regaining his senses, Qiao Jiyang burst into tears and shouted, "Please save my mom and dad!"
He got up from the ground and tried to jump back into the water.
He swayed a few times, then collapsed onto the deck with a thud, unconscious.
When Qiao Jiyang woke up, he found himself lying on a makeshift hospital bed on the cruise ship, with an IV drip in his hand.
Beside him, the blonde, blue-eyed beauty was guarding him.
How are my parents?
Qiao Jiyang asked the beautiful woman, and then turned over to get off the bed.
The beautiful Mary held him down, saying worriedly, "Mr. Joe, you have lung inflammation from inhaling too much seawater. You're getting an IV drip right now. Don't be too impulsive, and make sure you get plenty of rest."
Qiao Jiyang seemed not to hear Mary at all, excitedly repeating, "Where are my parents? Where are my parents? How are they? Where are they?"
Mary hesitated, wanting to speak but not daring to, afraid of upsetting him.
Qiao Jiyang reached out his hand, the one not receiving the IV drip, grabbed Mary's collar, and shouted, "Stop beating around the bush! Just tell me the hell where my parents are, huh?"
Mary shook her head, her face filled with sorrow.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Joe, your parents are missing."
"What?" Qiao Jiyang exclaimed in surprise and then burst into tears. He pulled out the IV drip from his hand and stumbled outside, shouting for his parents as he ran.
The four bodyguards who originally belonged to George Kang and Anna, who were standing guard outside, couldn't help but shed tears when they saw his distressed state.
They rushed forward and grabbed him, crying and shouting, "Young Master, please take care!"
Qiao Jiyang furiously pounded on the four bodyguards: "Didn't you promise to protect my parents? Where were you when they fell into the sea? Where were you?"
One of the bodyguards said while crying, "We had a few drinks and were a little dizzy. We were guarding the master and madam and didn't see what happened clearly. We just felt that the waves were a bit big, and with a bang, they fell in without us knowing how."
Another bodyguard said, "I felt like someone threw something up from the sea and pulled them down."
"Yes, it feels like a hook."
"A very precise technique, hooking people in one go. To be able to throw a hook from such a low place and accurately hook people, and hook two people at once, shows that the opponent's skill must be extremely high!"
Qiao Jiyang cried loudly, "Give me back my parents! Give me back my parents!"
He was thinking to himself: These bodyguards know too much. I'll find a chance to get rid of them when I get back.
"Dad! Mom! Where are my parents? Take me to see them!"
The bodyguard shook his head: "The master and madam have not been found yet, but the waves were too big at the time, and there were sharks in the water. The rescuers are likely to be in grave danger."
Qiao Jiyang cried loudly, "No matter the cost, even if it means giving up all of my family's wealth, I will find my father and mother!"
Qiao Jiyang hit the bodyguard and then slapped his own face repeatedly. Overwhelmed with excitement, he fainted again.
...
Lu Chi sat in the president's office, looking at the balance in his account, which had grown to more than 1 trillion yuan. He was only 2 trillion yuan away from becoming the world's richest man with more than 3 trillion yuan.
A big smile bloomed on his face, and the upturned corners of his mouth were like a mischievous AK that couldn't be suppressed no matter what.
Suddenly, a news article popped up on my computer desktop:
#World's richest man George Kahn and his wife Anna have gone missing#
Lu Chi opened the news, his smile widening.
That beast Qiao Jiyang really did harm his own parents.
As you scroll through the mouse, a deluge of news stories appears.
The news footage showed Qiao Jiyang crying his eyes out, looking quite heartbroken.
Guagua laughed heartily in Lu Chi's mind: [Oh my, that idiot Qiao Jiyang, his acting was quite convincing, making him seem like a filial son, when in fact he's evil to the core.]
Lu Chi: [This news only says that the George Conners fell into the sea and went missing, but it doesn't say whether they are alive or dead!]
Guagua: [They're long gone. Not only were the seas turbulent then, but Henry and his men were already lying in ambush beneath the Norwegian. After luring the couple into the water, they disposed of them immediately.]
Lu Chi: [It seems Qiao Jiyang's position as the world's richest man is secure.]
Guagua: [Haha! Host, why do I find yourself laughing so hard when you say that?]
Lu Chi: [What's so funny? Am I that funny?]
Guagua: [It's ridiculous! Qiao Jiyang fought for so long, risking drowning in the sea, and finally got his fortune, only to have it all end up going to you, host. Isn't that laughable?]
Lu Chi: [It's really ridiculous, hahaha...]
Pressing the bell on the table, the pretty secretary Jiang Jieyu walked in.
"Mr. Lu, what are your instructions?"
Lu Chi said, "Book me a plane ticket to the United States. I have an important meeting there. Book a ticket for next Monday."
"Okay, sure." Jiang Jieyu went out and booked Lu Chi's plane ticket for next Monday.
Today is Monday, and there is exactly one week until next Monday, which is enough time for Qiao Jiyang to handle various matters.
When Lu Chi arrives, he will travel around in a grand manner.
As for Qiao Jiyang, just leave it to Tang Xiaopiao, the little devil.
With Tang Xiaopiao in charge, things will definitely be handled perfectly.
