The breeze gently lifted the curtains. After an unknown amount of time had passed since the two of them were intimate, Lin Jiu couldn't help but yell, "Be gentle!"
"You're so delicate." Huo Shen softened his grip, "Even if modern people don't work at a desk, they often play with their phones, which can cause severe discomfort in their cervical spine.
The muscles in your shoulders are almost twisted into a ball. If you don't massage them hard, you'll end up with a real muscle sprain."
Lin Jiu's face flushed with pain. "Alright, I'm in so much pain. If you really want to rub my shoulders for me, why don't you rub them a few more times every day?"
"Okay." Huo Shen said okay, but his hands did not stop.
"What's good about that? I'm almost starving. Don't forget, I haven't eaten for three days." Lin Jiu looked at the supplements such as rhino horn and ginseng that William Lu gave her on the table.
Huo Shen suddenly stood up and pushed those into the trash can.
"mean!"
Lin Jiu looked out the window at this time and saw tall buildings standing on the coastline. The ship was about to dock.
"Where are you going?"
Huo Shen curled his lips and smiled, "Imperial Capital."
Normally, Lin Jiu wasn't nervous at all when she heard this place name, but today she actually felt cold sweats all over her body.
Because Huo Shen had said before that he would take her to...see grandpa.
Huo Shen noticed that Lin Jiu looked a little nervous and smiled smugly, "Don't worry! I will take you to eat a full meal before you go to see grandpa."
"Did I agree to go with you?" Lin Jiu leaned against the window with his arms folded.
"You ungrateful little bastard." Huo Shen pinched Lin Jiu's nose. "I risked so much to save you from that psychopath, and not only did you not thank me, you even contradicted me."
"After all, I'm not the Lin Jiu of the past. I have brothers now. If you want to take me to see Grandpa, you have to ask my brothers for their consent."
Lin Jiu was thinking that when she arrived in the imperial capital, she would go to the Imperial Capital Academy of Fine Arts to investigate before talking about her mother with her eldest brother.
Huo Shen stretched out his hand to support the window frame and circled Lin Jiu in front of him. "It's really different now. I'm so awesome now."
At this moment, Lin Jiu's stomach growled again.
Huo Shen raised the corners of his lips, "There are several famous snacks in the capital."
"Not interested."
"Barbecue in Nanluoxiang, pouring lemon juice over the deep-sea cod and then cooking it over a low heat..."
"Wait a minute, you win. Let's go and take me to eat." Lin Jiu had just finished speaking when his stomach growled a few more times.
"Should I carry you over there or hold you in my arms?" Huo Shende smiled. "Or, I can just watch you crawl over there out of hunger and watch you go there coldly."
"You are inhumane..."
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A rapid knock on the door interrupted Lin Jiu's words.
"who?"
"Mr. Huo, there's something urgent."
It’s the voice of Xicheng.
Huo Shen opened the door, and Xicheng panicked and sweated profusely. "Oh no! I just got the news that Ye Yan accidentally fell off his horse while filming in the Alps. Both he and his horse fell into the Dekli Valley."
Lin Jiu suddenly felt dizzy.
Xicheng continued, "Several search teams are currently conducting emergency rescue operations, but there is no news of Ye Yan."
Lin Jiu's feet were unstable and her head was heavy, so Huo Shen quickly supported her.
"Bao'er, don't worry. Let's put the meeting with Grandpa aside for now. I'll accompany you to the Alps to find Ye Yan first."
————
Near the Dekli Valley in the Alps, more than a dozen helicopters hovered over the valley.
Lin Jiu, wearing a down jacket and headphones, sat in the helicopter cabin, looking indifferently at the snow-covered hillside outside the window.
Huo Shen, who was sitting next to her, kept staring at her and said, "Don't worry."
Huo Shen reached out and held Lin Jiu's hand.
