Jian Yu didn't find the show funny at all. If she couldn't contact Huo Qizhen again, he would probably start looking for her everywhere again.
If it weren't for this accident, Huo An would have been sent away by Huo Qizhen soon and would never have come back in this lifetime.
As for Shen Qianyuan, this might be an opportunity to deal with him.
Unfortunately, Lu Jiao refused to release the person.
Do you know how far Shen Ding's dark forces have developed?
Jian Yu knew that they were more powerful than local gangs abroad.
Among wealthy and powerful families, they are considered one of the top ones.
"Therefore, you'd better not show your face until Huo Qizhen takes care of the Shen family."
"Dealing with the Shen family won't be that easy."
“If we can’t get rid of the Shen family, we will be suppressed by them. The Huo family will not be willing to be suppressed by them. Even without you, the two families will fight each other sooner or later.”
"I may not go back, but I need to let them know I'm safe in private."
“Shen Qianyuan is watching Huo Qizhen’s every move. If you just report back that you’re safe, you’ll give yourself away.”
"I......"
"Think carefully. If it weren't for me this time, you'd be a corpse by now. No one can be so lucky forever. Shen Qianyuan managed to fool so many people and successfully attack you. What do you think your chances of escaping next time are?"
It's estimated to be less than 10%.
Shen Qianyuan's plan against her was meticulous and thorough, and although she was clearly watching Shen Qianyuan, she didn't notice anything amiss.
It is clear that Shen Qianyuan had long been aware of her situation and was already on guard against her.
Jian Yu gripped his collar tightly, looking somewhat agitated.
It's not that I'm afraid of an enemy being ruthless, it's that I'm afraid of an enemy understanding me.
Two hours later, the crew came over with a cart to deliver dinner.
Jianyu had little appetite.
Lu Jiao did not force her to eat.
"For your next stop, I've had someone prepare clothes and a new phone for you."
When will we dock?
"We'll unload some cargo at the dock tomorrow at noon, and also take the opportunity to stock up on some daily necessities. If you need anything, I'll write it down and have someone buy it for you."
"All I need are clothes and a cell phone."
Lu Jiao left after finishing his meal. Jian Yu forced himself to get out of bed and locked the door.
Although locking the door wouldn't do much good for Lu Jiao, with so many people on the ship, he felt uneasy leaving it unlocked.
Lying in bed, Jian Yu's mind was a complete mess.
I tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep at all.
Finally, the medication took effect, and I drifted off to sleep.
When Jian Yu woke up, she felt a little better, which meant her fever had probably gone down.
There was no clock in the room, and Jian Yu didn't know the time. Just as she was about to go to the bathroom to get her clothes, she noticed several handbags on the table.
It was full of clothes.
Have they already disembarked for supplies?
Jian Yu changed his clothes and went out to find Lu Jiao.
With the help of the crew, Jian Yu found Lu Jiao on the deck.
Where is my phone?
Lu Jiao took out a cell phone from his pocket. "Here. I've already registered it for you."
Jian Yu glanced at the time; it was exactly four o'clock in the afternoon.
I casually browsed through my contacts and found that I already had a new friend on WeChat.
"Contact me directly if you need anything. Now, let's go to the restaurant and get something to eat!"
Jian Yu turned around and followed the crew to the restaurant.
She hadn't walked more than a few steps when Lu Jiao suddenly called out to her, "You're not allowed to contact Huo Qizhen, do you hear me?"
Jian Yu paused slightly, his eyes unconcerned, but he still nodded gently.
After eating, Jian Yu returned to his room to wait for Lu Jiao.
Half an hour later, Lu Jiao pushed open the door and came in. "What do you want?"
Jian Yu scrolled through her phone for a while, her eyes starting to ache. She was applying a hot towel to them when she said, "Let's chat."
"What are you going to talk about? Didn't we already talk about it last night?"
What was that chat like last night?
Jian Yu took the towel. "Let's talk about when you started watching me?"
In her past life, she never saw Lu Jiao show his face until her death, so she was very curious about what Lu Jiao's situation was.
Lu Jiao sat down opposite Jian Yu, casually stretching his arms out on the back of the sofa. "Take a guess?"
Where do we even begin to guess?
"I can't guess."
Lu Jiao glared at Jian Yu with displeasure, "Can't you guess?"
Jian Yu nodded.
Lu Jiao gritted his teeth, "Still as stupid as when he was a kid."
Jianyu, “…”
Can we even have a chat? Why are you resorting to personal attacks all the time?
"Doesn't this dangerous and undetected act of me being able to keep an eye on you and Huo An, and rescue you from Shen Qianyuan, seem familiar?"
Jian Yu shook his head. "Can you just say it directly?"
Lu Jiao was speechless for a moment.
Jian Yu stared at Lu Jiao's frustrated eyes, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "I received a message a few days ago with no sender, and it contained a photo. Could that person be you?"
Lu Jiao finally smiled with satisfaction, "Not completely stupid."
Jianyu, “…”
"Did you really take this picture?"
"certainly."
Jian Yu stood up excitedly and grabbed Lu Jiao's arm. "You know about hackers too? How did you take these photos? I checked the surrounding surveillance footage, and there was no one there."
“I was hiding from trouble there, just like you, so I switched the road surveillance footage beforehand. That’s why I spotted you immediately when you brought Yu Yao there, and I recognized you right away. You look just like you did when you were little.”
Why didn't you greet me back then?
Lu Jiao paused for a moment, "I was embroiled in trouble at the time and it took me a long time to sort things out. In the meantime, I learned about your situation, but it wasn't convenient for me to contact you then. I only recently had the time to deal with it."
"You could have just told me directly, why did you send it to me anonymously? It made me worry for days."
Lu Jiao gave two incredibly irritating words: "Fun."
Jian Yu resisted the urge to roll her eyes at Lu Jiao. "Did you send me the photos yourself? Or did you ask someone to help you?"
"Myself."
Jian Yu was clearly intrigued. "What's your nickname? Is it on any of the rankings?"
"Rankings?"
Lu Jiao scoffed, "Who plays with that kind of thing?"
Jianyu: "Me."
Lu Jiao curled his fingers, about to tap Jian Yu's forehead, but Jian Yu lifted his leg and sat down opposite him.
Lu Jiao was still in the bent-finger position when he saw this, so he could only laugh and say, "Oh, your reaction is much faster now."
Nonsense, if it hurt that much, anyone would be wary.
Since Lu Jiao was the one who posted the photos, Jian Yu felt relieved.
"To be honest, I didn't expect you to be worth so much. When you fell into the water and went missing a few days ago, your grandfather was looking for a lawyer to prepare the paperwork to inherit your estate, only to find out that you had already done a prenuptial agreement. If it weren't for your grandfather, I wouldn't have known you were worth so much."
Lu Jiao's words put Jian Yu on guard. Could Lu Jiao also be after her money?
Did they steal her savings when she was a child, and now they're eyeing her assets again?
Lu Jiao noticed Jian Yu's wariness and gave her an annoyed look. "What do you take me for? I'm not short of money right now. Do you think I'd get close to you for a pittance?"
