In the storm, Meng Wen held an umbrella in one hand and a flashlight in the other, walking very slowly.
As they walked to the vicinity of the villa, they found nothing. Just when Meng Wen believed that Yu Wan really wanted to help, he saw a piece of gold at the edge of a clump of grass, with only a tiny bit sticking out.
He picked up the gold and held it tightly in his hand.
Next, Meng Wen searched every inch of the area, including the bushes.
He went through the area again and found five pieces of gold. If he had searched thoroughly, he would have found the little villa!
Meng Wen stood at the door of the villa, not at all surprised, but rather with a sense that it was only natural.
Ji Kong stood at the door and saw him return immediately: "She's asleep. Did you notice?"
Meng Wen gave him a deep look and shook his head: "No."
Ji Kong had no doubts: "Then get some rest. We'll go to the cliff together tomorrow morning."
"We can't go together. You stay here and look after Miss Gu Yu. If anyone comes, please help me deal with them," Meng Wen pleaded with him.
Ji Kong asked in confusion, "Didn't we already agree on this?"
Meng Wen pleaded, "Brother Ji, I'm used to having a backup plan. Just one day will do, thank you for your help."
Ji Kong guessed that he didn't trust Yu Wan, so he didn't press the matter and nodded in agreement: "Okay."
The next day, before dawn, Meng Wen went out alone.
Yu Wan sat on the sofa all night without sleeping. When she heard footsteps at the door, she immediately opened her eyes, got up gently, walked to the door, and quietly opened it a crack.
Because someone was sleeping in the living room, Yu Wan didn't go out, so she didn't know who had gone out.
However, she had a backup plan. Even if she did nothing and stayed here waiting, these people wouldn't be able to leave.
Meng Wen left the villa, rented a car by the roadside, and sped off toward the cliff.
Meanwhile, in Yu Wan's villa, Mylis woke up in a rage!
Are you all dead?!
"You didn't even bother to come to the villa to see me all night!"
"Why did I end up raising a bunch of useless trash?"
Enraged, Mylis kicked them to the ground.
His men quickly scrambled to their feet, knelt down, and begged for mercy.
"Young master, spare me! Young master, spare me!"
"Young Master, Yu Wan dared to hurt you, she's asking for it! We'll go find her right now. As long as she's still on the island, we'll definitely bring her back, and then you can do whatever you want with her!"
Upon hearing this, Mylis gritted his teeth and said, "Yu Wan and Ji Kong's people, not a single one of them can be let go! Go find them for me right now!"
"Yes, young master."
All the subordinates spoke in unison and ran out, afraid that if they were too slow, the young master would call them back and beat them.
In the blink of an eye, only Myris was left in the villa again.
Mylis stared wide-eyed: "..."
A bunch of useless trash!
Ji Kong took the gold given to him by Yu Wan and went out to buy groceries and medicine. On his way back, he saw the men from Mylis coming, so he avoided them from a distance.
Back at the villa, after handing his things over to Meng Wen's men, he planned to explore the villa.
"Ji Kong".
Yu Wan called out to him in a sweet voice, "Where are you going? I don't want to stay in the storage room. Can you take me with you?"
Ji Kong shook his head and refused: "Miss Yu, Mylis's people are searching outside. It's not safe for you to go out. You should stay here."
However, Yu Wan grabbed his clothes and asked, feeling wronged, "You're the only person I know. Are you going to abandon me?"
Ji Kong looked down and said, "Miss Yu, please let go."
"Ji Kong!" Yu Wan gritted her teeth, tears welling up in her eyes. "What do you mean? I've come all this way with you, don't you understand?"
"Understand what?" Ji Kong pulled his clothes out of her hands.
Yu Wan clenched her fists tightly: "I brought so much gold with me, I can go wherever I want, why do I have to come to this lousy place with you and live in this dirty and messy storeroom? Ji Kong, do you really want me to be so clear? I am a woman."
Yu Wan's voice was quite loud, and everyone in the living room turned their heads to watch the show while eating their steamed buns.
Ji Kong was completely bewildered.
But he quickly realized what was happening and lowered his head, saying, "Miss Yu, I am escorting you on the orders of the family head. If this has caused you any misunderstanding, I am very sorry."
In an instant, Yu Wan's face turned pale and then red.
She never expected that even after she had said all that, Ji Kong would remain completely unmoved!
But he was clearly very good to her!
Yu Wan didn't believe that he was protecting her so much, that he was just following Ji Mingjing's orders!
"That's not it. You've been so good to me all along. I can feel that you like me. Are you worried that the Ji family head won't approve? Or do you also look down on me because I have a mother who's been imprisoned?"
Yu Wan used a feigned retreat as a tactic, her tears streaming down her face as if they were free.
She didn't ask Ji Kong to truly love her; she just wanted him to take her away. She couldn't fall into the hands of Myris or any other pirates. She needed to go back so she could find another way to find the leader of the Divine Envoy Organization.
Yu Wan cried so hard that her face was streaked with tears, making the men watching the scene in the living room feel a little embarrassed.
Ji Kong looked at her crying, his expression somewhat complicated.
Actually, when he met Yu Wan last year, he had a good impression of her, but she was the eldest daughter of the Yu family, and he never had any romantic feelings for her. Later, Fu Lin's identity was exposed and she was arrested. Yu Wan lost control of her emotions as a result, and he secretly helped her a few times. He just didn't expect her personality to change so drastically and become so unfamiliar.
Just like right now.
Yu Wan didn't cry when she jumped off the car.
The Yu Wan of today has less sincerity and more calculation in her eyes.
Ji Kong withdrew his gaze, and to avoid any further complications, he kept his tone unchanged: "Miss Yu, I am kind to you because of the head of the family's orders. I would have been kind to anyone else as well."
Yu Wan stared at him, speechless.
Ji Kong nodded to her, then turned and left.
Yu Wan watched him walk away without looking back, her eyes glaring angrily at his retreating figure, gritting her teeth inwardly: You'll regret this, you'll definitely regret this!!!
Ji Kong went out the door and took a shortcut to the outside of the villa's wall.
He hadn't expected that Mylis would still be around.
This is troublesome.
Next, Mylis's people will definitely be coming and going here frequently. Will Meng Wen run into them?
Ji Kong frowned slightly, wondering if Meng Wen had found the place yet.
Meng Wen arrived at the edge of a cliff, surveyed the surrounding area, and left marks to make it easier for Gu Shiyi and the others to come ashore and find people.
Meng Wen drove around the neighborhood and found a natural place to stay.
As long as they have supplies, they can stay in the cave for ten days or half a month without any problem.
Thinking of this, Meng Wen left the cave and drove to the city to buy daily necessities. Soon, he spent all of his five gold coins.
He drove back to the villa after dark.
As soon as Meng Wen arrived nearby, he noticed someone walking towards him cursing. Immediately, he cautiously drove away.
However, he honked his horn twice as a warning before leaving.
