At this time,
Xiaoxiao led Jiaojiao away from the suite and ran quickly toward the emergency exit.
Xiaoxiao remembered the English for the emergency exit. Her heart was racing, but she forced herself to remain calm and quickly walked downstairs.
They were dressed in Western-style dresses and looked like children of some of the passengers on the ship.
"Let's hide here for a while." Xiaoxiao changed her mind immediately after seeing the sign above the door.
She doesn't know anything about the cruise ship yet, and wandering around will only make things more dangerous.
Jiaojiao nodded and followed her closely.
"Second sister, this cruise ship belongs to Uncle." After hiding, Jiaojiao, with her beautiful eyes, whispered.
"The logo on the ship is in a picture book my uncle bought for me; he works for Rongkai Group."
Xiaoxiao's pupils dilated slightly; she had been so focused on pulling her sister along that she hadn't had time to observe anything.
She fumbled to turn on the room light and saw rows of wine cabinets, all bearing the same logo.
“This is it…” Jiaojiao didn’t dare to speak loudly and looked around cautiously.
Xiaoxiao collapsed to the ground, her back covered in cold sweat.
This is indeed a cruise ship belonging to the Rongkai Group; the logo on it is genuine.
There was a string of English words written on the paper next to her. She had seen these words many times before. They translated to Rongkai Group.
"Second sister, are we safe now?" Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, not wanting to say anything that would hurt her feelings.
Then both of their stomachs growled at the same time.
Just then, footsteps came from the doorway...
…
now,
After finishing dinner and returning to her suite, Chen Niaoshu paused as she was about to open the door to her suite, looking towards the door opposite.
She took another room key out of her bag.
"drop!"
I opened the door and casually placed the room card near the power outlet.
The suite was brightly lit, but there was nothing on the sofa.
Chen Niaoshu thought she was seeing things, so she hurried inside, forgetting to close the door.
"How is that possible? Where is he?" she said anxiously, and hurried to the bathroom to check.
I walked back and forth several times, but I still couldn't see the two children.
A dark figure loomed down at the doorway.
"Why did you book another guest room?" Chen Yi didn't go inside, a dark glint flashing in his eyes.
He didn't leave the room; he stood at the door looking across the street.
When he saw Lin Ziyan's two younger sisters come out, he almost opened the door, but he managed to hold back.
“It was opened for Sara…” Chen Niaoshu’s eyes flickered.
She dared not tell the truth, afraid of seeing his disdainful look.
Chen Yi snorted coldly, put one hand in his pocket, and turned to leave, feigning composure.
He needs to leave Country A as soon as possible, and preferably cut off all contact with the Chen family.
After having this thought, he actually felt relieved.
During the few days he waited in Fujishi, he learned the truth.
Grandpa secretly made a deal with people from abroad without telling the whole family, and the evidence is irrefutable.
The Chen family will never be able to turn things around.
Even if his parents are rescued, they will have no choice but to flee abroad, and they will have to flee to countries that do not have an extradition treaty with China.
Chen Yi felt utterly powerless, leaning back on the sofa as he was forced to drink more alcohol.
He could only feel better when he was drunk.
Now that his sister has had Lin Ziyan's sister taken away, how could the Lu family let it go and let the Chen family off the hook?
Chen Yi sneered. The Chen family deserved their current predicament, and so did he.
He could have simply refused to cooperate with Wagner and admitted his defeat.
But he stubbornly insists on saving face, even at the cost of suffering. Now he's on a path of no return, and there's no turning back.
drop!
The door to the suite opened, and Chen Niaoshu walked in with a gloomy expression.
Lost in thought, she didn't notice Chen Yi slumped on the carpet, drinking from the bottle.
"Can't you have any humanity?" Chen Yi suddenly asked.
Chen Niaoshu was startled and patted her chest. "What did you say?"
Chen Yi sneered, propped himself up, grabbed her shoulder with one hand, and shook her.
"I said, can't you have any humanity? Is studying abroad just about learning these low-life methods?"
Chen Niaoshu's eyelids twitched. "You let them go?"
Chen Yi snorted, slumped onto the sofa, and continued drinking.
No, he doesn't have a room key.
Chen Niaoshu's expression changed, and she stopped pretending. "My methods are substandard?"
"Now that the Chen family is all inside, why are you sitting here drinking? Don't you have any self-awareness?"
Her expression was contorted as she growled softly.
She's had enough of this. Why should she bear all the pressure alone?
As a member of the Chen family, why does her brother have the right to live such a carefree life?
"You know perfectly well what I'm saying, so don't try to make a big deal out of it with me." Chen Yi squinted; he was drunk, not stupid.
Want to vent your emotions on him? Impossible.
It's understandable that he's unhappy; he's suffering even more than she is.
Chen Niaoshu, as if venting her anger, blurted out, "You're no match for Lu Yunshen, no matter what. I used to think the aunties in the compound were just talking nonsense to curry favor with the Lu family, but now it seems they were the ones with the sharpest eyes."
I can see right through your cowardice and incompetence, and you still want to compete with others?
Look in the mirror; your abilities don't match your strong sense of pride.
She was already feeling incredibly frustrated, and now she had to be lectured by her own brother.
Chen Yi's smile faded. "I admit I'm not as good as him, but do you deserve him?"
Look at you now, acting like a brainless, jealous woman, spewing nonsense everywhere.
"It's been exploited to death in Germany, and now you're coming back home pretending to be sentimental..."
"Smack!"
Chen Niaoshu suddenly raised her hand and slapped Chen Yi across the face.
Chen Yi tilted his head, his eyes blazing with anger. "What, did I touch a nerve?"
"Do you think that you're the one playing others, instead of others playing you?"
Chen Niaoshu clenched her fists, her chest heaving with anger.
“You certainly didn’t play with emotions, but you were still being played.” Chen Yi stood up and gave her a cold look.
He carried the wine bottle and walked to the window to lean against it.
Chen Niaoshu stepped forward, snatched the bottle from his wine bottle, and gulped down several mouthfuls before replying.
"We are all failures, only fit to live in darkness."
“You haven’t done anything dirty, but you have the blood of the Chen family flowing in your veins, and that is your original sin.”
She laughed wildly, smashing the bottle on the floor with a loud "crack!"
It was as if another slap landed on Chen Yi's face.
The air was instantly filled with the rich aroma of red wine, mixed with a faint salty and fishy smell.
Chen Yi smelled it like a stinking ditch, rotten and nauseating...
…
On the other side
Two children and a man are confronting each other in the storage room.
The man tried to speak slowly, conversing with one of the older girls in English.
Are you sure you want to go here?
He couldn't read the words on it, but the Germans recognized the symbols.
That's a wealthy area in Germany; the people who live there are all rich and powerful.
“I’m Morgan, the bartender here. This cruise ship will stop in country A for 10 minutes, and then head straight to Germany.” Morgan looked at one of the girls and felt that she looked familiar.
