Chapter 101 Design
After a few bites, Lin Yiluo lost her appetite. There was no spiciness at all; how could she eat this?
Lin Yi'an pushed the plate further in her direction.
"Eat? What are you doing?"
What if I don't want to eat?
"Eat even if you don't want to, look how thin you are."
"If you want me to gain weight, you can just give me more cake."
Lin Yi'an almost laughed in anger upon hearing this.
There's no cake, only this. If you don't eat this, then you don't need to eat any cakes in the future.
It was a threat, a clear threat, but that's exactly what Lin Yiluo was afraid of.
After finishing her meal, Lin Yi'an rubbed her head and said to her.
"We'll reach international waters tonight, and things will get chaotic on the ship then. There's also a banquet tonight, so make sure you stay close to us."
If you can't find any of us or are just bored, go hang out with Wen Shuyu. He's a bit unreliable, but he can still take good care of you.
Finally, he added another sentence.
"But you can only play with him, you're not allowed to like him."
When Lin Yilu heard what Lin Yi'an said, she felt that he was being domineering. What did he mean by not being allowed to like him? She didn't like him in the first place, okay?
…………
Mo Ziyuan called Shi Jingsheng to his room and spoke to him.
"I'll take care of Yi Luo tonight. You keep an eye on Lin Yi'an."
At first, Shi Jingsheng didn't understand what he meant and just nodded indifferently.
"Okay, I'll keep an eye on things. The Qiu family won't dare to make a move."
Upon hearing this, Mo Ziyuan looked at him and said earnestly.
That's not what I meant.
The man standing in front of him couldn't understand for a moment.
"What does that mean? Aren't you telling me to keep an eye on him?"
"I'm telling you to keep an eye on him, watch him closely, and don't let him find Yiluo or me."
Now Shi Jingsheng seems to understand.
He was a little incredulous and unsure whether he should agree to Mo Ziyuan's request, so he tentatively asked.
"Okay, how about I give you all the ointments I brought to reduce swelling, and also..."
"Give me the ointment, nothing else." Of course, he wanted to have close contact with his baby.
He used to have the idea of bringing the baby along, but not anymore. The baby is his, so he can have close contact with him.
The sky has fallen; just as he thought.
"No...no way...Yi Luo is still so young, don't do this, Zi Yuan, I'm scared, what if she gets pregnant?"
"I will be careful."
"Watch out, how can you watch out? It can't be......"
Shi Jingsheng fell silent.
"I understand. Don't tell people about this kind of thing in the future, it will scare them." Shi Jingsheng's tone was quite aggrieved.
Mo Ziyuan looked at the sky outside and spoke in a calm tone.
"No, maybe we should just give him something, in case Yiluo is still feeling unwell the next day..."
"But he's not stupid, there's bound to be a problem if he sleeps for that long!"
"That's your problem, think about it yourself!"
Mo Ziyuan spoke with such nonchalance, and left just as nonchalancely, leaving him here to fend for himself.
………………
As dusk fell, the real feast began. Every now and then, fish would leap out of the water, bathed in the glow of the setting sun, their rays scattering across the boundless ocean.
Mo Ziyuan's greatest skill was using others to harm others.
After hearing about the mission, Zhao Ming asked again incredulously.
"Young master, are you sure you want to give this to Miss?"
He dared not. If Lin Yi'an found out, he might not even know where he would die.
Did I tell you to give it to the young lady?
Zhao Ming shook his head, but although the young master didn't say it that way, that's what he meant!
He asked again, uncertainly.
"But if we just hand this to Zhou Xiao, will he know what to do?"
These young ladies from prestigious families shouldn't be that stupid!
"Just keep stuffing it in. If she doesn't do it, aren't there other ways?"
He felt that Zhou Xiao would definitely do it. Others were young ladies from wealthy families, but she wasn't. Zhou Xiao had never experienced the intrigues and power struggles within a wealthy family.
Moreover, Zhou Xiao is always blindly confident in herself. Yi Luo doesn't go out often, so she definitely won't let this opportunity pass her by.
Unexpectedly, this is exactly how it turned out. As Zhou Xiao walked through the corridor, Zhao Ming's men also came out, and a box was accidentally knocked to the ground.
Before Zhou Xiao could call out to the man, he had already hurriedly left.
She could only pick up the box, open the outer packaging, and see what was inside.
I was quite startled when I saw it. I never expected that the man was carrying this. No wonder he walked away so fast.
Because the banquet was about to begin, the woman had no choice but to put the item in her bag and walk into the banquet hall.
The banquet hadn't officially started yet, and Lin Yi'an propped his head up as he watched his younger sister eat cake.
"Is it tasty."
"OK."
"Baby Ilo, don't you think this cake is a little too sweet?"
Lin Yilu shook her head; the sweetness was just right and it tasted delicious.
"Brother, would you like to try some?"
"I won't eat, you eat. It'll start in a little while. Remember what your brother told you, don't run around, okay? Otherwise, your brother will worry."
"Okay, don't worry, brother, I won't run around."
Lin Yi'an looked at the two people again, and Shi Jingsheng and Mo Ziyuan nodded as well.
………………
The banquet began, and Lin Yi'an and the others soon parted ways.
Shi Jingsheng accompanied Lin Yi'an to social events.
Mo Ziyuan took the girl's hand and found a booth.
"You sit here first, I'll go get something."
Lin Yiluo was somewhat hesitant.
"Brother, why don't I go with you? I'm scared sitting here by myself."
"Don't worry, baby, it's very secluded here, and your brother will be back soon."
After Mo Ziyuan left, Zhao Ming's men quickly began to harass Zhou Xiao.
Zhou Xiao saw the man who had dropped something and immediately chased after him, which naturally led him to encounter Lin Yiluo, who was alone.
Actually, many people came to chat with Lin Yiluo while she was sitting there, but the people Mo Ziyuan sent were nearby, so no one could get close to Lin Yiluo except for Zhou Xiao.
Lin Yiluo's clothes were the ones Zhou Xiao had always wanted, but she couldn't compete with another buyer, which made her long for them for a long time. She never expected to see Lin Yiluo wearing them, and that feeling welled up in her heart again.
Everything that originally belonged to her—her clothes, her brother, and Mo Ziyuan's love—should all have been hers. Her mother always told her that she was the noble one, the one admired by thousands at school.
Why did Lin Yiluo take everything from her?
The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. She gripped her bag tightly with her fingers, and suddenly she felt something through the bag—the medicine.
She immediately looked around, but the person was no longer there.
Actually, she had already looked around when she found the medicine, as there were no security cameras in that area.
So the medicine was in her possession, and only that person and she knew about it. Zhou Xiao didn't know where she got the courage, but she felt that even if that person knew that she had picked it up, they wouldn't dare to say it. She was the eldest daughter of the Mo family, with an extremely noble status, while that person's clothes made her look like she was just a waiter.
He would absolutely not dare to report himself.
"Miss, would you like some wine?"
Just then, the waiter came over with the wine and asked Zhou Xiao something.
Now Zhou Xiao truly felt that even God was helping him.
"Yes, I'll take both of them."
Lin Yiluo looked around aimlessly out of boredom, and her eyes immediately fell on the colorful bottles of wine in front of her.
She was surprised to find a blue version of this wine, one she had never seen before in her home. She wondered what the blue one tasted like, and if it was delicious. She was tempted to try it.
After Zhou Xiao put the item in the wine, he called Qiu Weihong.
Although Qiu Weihong's leg was injured, he still came because of Old Master Qiu's orders.
After receiving the call, Qiu Weihong said impatiently.
"What are you doing?"
Zhou Xiao was also displeased by his tone. She was now the eldest daughter of the Mo family. What kind of tone was that?
"Hasn't Young Master Qiu always had his eye on Young Master An's sister? How about I help you?"
Qiu Weihong, who had originally intended to hang up the phone, suddenly became interested.
"You'll help me? What do you mean?"
"Don't worry about that. Just find a lounge and wait there. They'll bring it to you when the time comes."
"Are you planning to put something on her?"
Qiu Weihong comes from a prominent family, and he could tell what Zhou Xiao was thinking at a glance.
Zhou Xiao did not hide anything.
"Yes."
"Aren't you afraid that Lin Yi'an will find out about you?"
"This will require Young Master Qiu's help. We'll need Young Master Qiu to destroy all the evidence. You must have the ability to do that!"
Qiu Weihong smiled, amused by the woman's foolishness and lack of awareness. However, he still cooperated, after all, who wouldn't want a woman who was offered to them? Especially since that woman was so beautiful.
Shi Jingsheng and Mo Ziyuan already paid such a high price to help Lin Yi'an the first time, would they help him a second time? Since his leg is already like this, it's definitely not possible that he forced Lin Yiluo. It would be better to just say that Lin Yiluo forced him!
Even if it's eventually discovered that Lin Yiluo was drugged, I'll still be the one who suffered injustice.
He was resting in the lounge when a woman suddenly appeared. What could he do?
It's quite a spectacle to see the Mo family members turning on each other.
"Alright, Mo Xiao, as expected of the eldest daughter of the Mo family, you have guts and spirit. I will definitely help you, but we'll still have to rely on you for that woman."
……………
Zhou Xiao, holding a wine glass and swaying her hips, confidently walked up to Lin Yiluo.
Lin Yiluo was somewhat puzzled when she saw who had come.
Isn't that that wicked woman? What's she doing here?
The little voice in the girl's mind was running wild. What was she doing here? What was she doing? I'm so scared, so scared! Can Brother Ziyuan come and save me?!
"Miss Lin, it's been a long time."
Lin Yilu was extremely flustered inside, but on the surface she remained calm.
"Is there something you need?"
Zhou Xiao smiled at Lin Yiluo, a very gentle smile.
Lin Yiluo felt a chill run down her spine from laughing. "Why is she laughing at me? Why?"
"It's nothing. You're my brother's friend, so I wanted to chat with Miss Lin and get to know her. Miss Lin probably doesn't know, but we're actually classmates."
Classmate? Lin Yiluo really didn't know.
"What do you want to talk about?"
Zhou Xiao stopped talking, handed her the wine, and gestured for her to drink it.
At that moment, Lin Yiluo only wanted to run away, and she didn't care about anything else, but she didn't dare to drink that glass of wine!
The woman in front of her seemed to sense her hesitation, so she handed her her own glass and drank the one she was about to give to Lin Yiluo.
"Now you believe me, Miss Lin, right? I really just wanted to have a chat with you."
Lin Yiluo then picked up the glass of wine and started drinking. She had just taken a sip when Mo Ziyuan appeared.
What are you drinking?
Lin Yiluo looked at Mo Ziyuan.
"Let's drink."
The man snatched the wine from her hand.
"You're not allowed to drink alcohol. You're still young, don't drink."
Then he drank the rest of the wine in one gulp.
Zhou Xiao was completely stunned by this. What should she do? Her brother was here too.
The man then looked at Zhou Xiao beside him.
"What are you doing here, Miss Zhou?"
Zhou Xiao dared not remain seated and immediately stood up, ready to run.
"I saw Ilo here and wanted to talk to her. Now that my brother is back, I'll be going now."
Zhou Xiao ran to the toilet first. In fact, she had put something in both glasses of wine, and she was now in the toilet inducing vomiting.
Qiu Weihong, who was waiting on the other end, was getting anxious and kept calling Zhou Xiao.
"Where is he? Mo Xiao, where is the person you're looking for?"
Due to various reasons, Qiu Weihong's body was already depleted, so he had just taken a few pills and was now waiting for Zhou Xiao's move, but he hadn't heard from her for a long time.
"I, I..."
Listening to her stammering, Qiu Weihong knew she had definitely failed. How could such a foolish woman possibly succeed?
But what should he do? He thought of the female companions on the ship, but he was tired of them all. Maybe...
"You failed, didn't you? Since you failed, then you'll have to do it yourself."
How could Zhou Xiao possibly agree?
"What do you mean, Qiu Weihong? You want me to serve you?"
"Otherwise what? My men have already got their hands on the surveillance footage. There's video of Miss Zhou putting things away. What if I expose this? Will the Mo family head still acknowledge you as his daughter who isn't even his own?"
