Chapter 374 The Canary Trapped in a Cage



Lu Zhiwei broke free from Luo Xiu's hand, took the phone back from him, and turned to leave.

She was determined to find her son, to find Shen Jinmo.

She went through a lot of hardship to give birth to the child and raise him to the age of five.

It belongs to her alone.

“Lu Zhiwei, I don’t resent that you married that bastard Shen Jingmo, and I’m not angry that you gave birth to his child. Just say the word, and I can help you find your child and take him back from him.”

Luo Xiu gazed at Lu Zhiwei's retreating figure and said with unwavering determination.

Lu Zhiwei pretended not to hear and stepped out of the Luo family manor.

She needed to find Shen Jinmo using the location on her phone and bring her son back from him.

That night, Lu Zhiwei stayed up all night and boarded a plane to Europe.

Inside the business class cabin, Lu Zhiwei leaned back in her seat, waiting for the plane to take off. With her tired eyelids drooping, she kept sending WeChat messages to Shen Jinmo on her phone.

The child is mine alone, and he must come back to me no matter what.

[Shen Jinmo, please reply to my message.]

I've come to find you.

...

All the messages I sent went unanswered.

Before the plane took off, a man in a silver-gray suit sat down next to her, holding a blanket and a neck pillow.

The man put a neck pillow around her neck.

When she turned her head, she met Luo Xiu's clear, azure eyes, eyes that were pure, flawless, and full of deep affection.

Few women can resist the allure of those eyes.

What are you doing here?

"Of course I'll go with you to find An'an. It's not safe for a woman like you to go to such a far place alone. I have to go with you."

Lu Zhiwei looked at him with some confusion.

Luo Xiu covered her legs with a blanket. "The plane is about to take off. Put your phone on airplane mode and get some sleep. I'll wake you up when we arrive."

"Mr. Luo, you're so busy, do you still have time to accompany me on a trip to Europe?"

Lu Zhiwei felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

"Being with you is more important than anything else. I gave you up for my career before, but I won't do it again this time." Luo Xiu gazed at her, his eyes overflowing with tenderness.

Almost there.

Lu Zhiwei took it seriously.

The plane landed in Europe early the next morning.

Lu Zhiwei didn't rest for a moment and went straight to the location that the GPS had locked onto.

The continuous travel took a toll on Lu Zhiwei's body; her legs went weak, and she nearly collapsed to the ground.

Luo Xiu quickly stepped in to support her, saying, "I'll book a hotel for you to rest. If you keep going like this, you'll collapse before we even find our son."

Lu Zhiwei pushed Luo Xiu away, hailed a taxi, and told the driver to head to the address she had given her.

The car arrived at the foot of a high-end apartment building.

The location cannot pinpoint the floor.

Lu Zhiwei had no choice but to knock on doors one by one to inquire about the situation.

They knocked on one of the doors, and the person answered.

Lu Zhiwei took out photos of Shen Jinmo and Lu Anyu and asked, "Have you seen these two people before?"

"Yes, I've seen them. I'm the maid who cleans here. These two stayed here for one night and just left," the blonde maid in an apron told her.

Lu Zhiwei quickly turned on her phone's location services.

The location is indeed moving rapidly and getting further and further away from the apartment building.

Lu Zhiwei rushed downstairs.

Luo Xiu, who was waiting for her in a taxi downstairs, was carrying a paper bag containing breakfast.

"Have some breakfast first; your health is the most important thing."

Lu Zhiwei had no appetite for breakfast. She instructed the driver to continue driving and gave him the location of the tracking device so he could give chase.

Seeing that she had no appetite for breakfast, Luo Xiu took out the sandwich and milk from the paper bag and handed them to her mouth: "Eat something."

"Stop bothering me, okay? Stop following me."

Lu Zhiwei growled.

Luo Xiu was scolded and obediently put the breakfast back into the bag.

He then leaned back in his seat, took out his phone, and sent a message to Eisen: "Have someone bring Shen Jingmo's phone and Lu Anyu's watch to the deserted island I bought."

[Received, Mr. Luo.]

The taxi driver drove the car to the edge of the pier, and the GPS was already moving towards the middle of the sea.

The driver turned to Lu Zhiwei and said, "I'm sorry, my car can't go any further. Your location is heading towards the sea. You may need to take a speedboat to catch up."

"Thank you." Lu Zhiwei took out money from her bag to pay the fare and tip, and then got out of the car.

Luo Xiu got out of the car from the other side and walked to the dock to rent a speedboat.

He quickly arranged for a speedboat to go out to sea: "Get on the speedboat, go faster, we should be able to catch up."

Lu Zhiwei stood quietly at the dock.

The sea breeze was chilly, ruffling her dark, curly hair.

Luo Xiu came up behind her, took her hand, and led her toward the speedboat.

The uninhabited island was a private island that he bought for a large sum of money many years ago.

It was also a golden cage that he personally built for Lu Zhiwei.

Once Lu Zhiwei followed him to the island.

He would cut off all means of transportation and routes that could take her off the island, so that she would never be able to leave the island again.

Lu Zhiwei is too career-oriented.

Ever since she became the president of the art association, she has been causing him trouble.

The only way is to lock her up and break her wings.

Only then will she lose her brilliance and slowly submit to him.

We arrived at the speedboat.

Lu Zhiwei's phone rang.

It was a WeChat message from Luo Wuyan.

She picked it up and glanced at it.

[Weiwei, where have you been? The association is in complete chaos; we need you to step in and calm things down.]

Those artists are still causing trouble at the association. If this continues, you'll be impeached and removed from office.

"At this time, forget about work, finding An'an is the most important thing." Luo Xiu saw that she was still looking at work messages on her phone.

He pulled her onto the speedboat.

As soon as they stepped on it.

Luo Xiu gave the speedboat driver a wink, signaling him to start the speedboat quickly.

Lu Zhiwei finally realized the problem.

Something's wrong with Luo Xiu.

His eagerness revealed his weakness.

Before the speedboat left the shore, Lu Zhiwei leaped onto the dock.

Luo Xiu reached out and grabbed at nothing.

The speedboat sped away, creating a white spray.

Lu Zhiwei watched Luo Xiu walk away, then turned and left.

Luo Xiu immediately ordered the speedboat driver: "Turn around and return to the dock."

When Luo Xiu got back ashore, Lu Zhiwei had already disappeared.

Luo Xiu, whose plans had fallen through, gritted his teeth and took out his phone to call Lu Zhiwei.

Just one step away.

He could then lock Lu Zhiwei, this proud canary, in a cage.

Unfortunately, the canary flew away just a second before it was put into the cage.

The call was connected.

【Zhizhi, don't you want to find An'an anymore?】

Holding her phone, Lu Zhiwei got into a taxi heading to the airport: "Since you care about me so much, then go and get An'an back for me."

"And what about you?" Luo Xiu asked eagerly.

Lu Zhiwei did not answer him and abruptly ended the call.
