In a secluded corner, Apu had been standing there waiting for a while.
Upon seeing the newcomer, he respectfully greeted, "Young Master."
Lin Xi frowned, still not quite used to his way of addressing her. "Just call me Third Brother like everyone else. Ah Pu, there might be some news about my father."
Apu recalled the news he had recently heard that his young master was leaving with the governor's son. He found it strange, as it seemed there was some connection between the two events.
"You mean, it's related to that person?"
"Yes, you keep a close eye on the movements of Chen Jin, Jiang Chuan, and their group. If necessary, you can lend a hand."
Apu tilted his head, looking puzzled.
“This is a friend of mine. Of course, your own safety should be the priority in all actions. Don’t act rashly if the risk is too great,” Lin Xi added.
She didn't want Apu to sacrifice his life to save someone because of her simple request.
"There's one more thing. Could you please take these two letters out for me?"
After hearing what she said clearly, Apu nodded solemnly.
Lin Xi didn't know if she would have a chance to go back and see her older sister and younger sister after she left with Yin. It was better to explain some things to them as soon as possible.
After saying all this, Lin Xi turned and left.
Chen Jin approached Yin immediately after the meeting.
After they met privately and talked for a while, Yin actually nodded and agreed to meet with Yun. After that, he led a large group of people to the Seventh Team.
After it was all over, Lin Xi had almost finished packing her things.
Lin Xi followed behind Yin, looking at everything familiar that was about to leave, feeling somewhat complicated.
This is the first time a trip has ended so quickly.
However, she feels that the truth is getting closer and closer...
Yin's car was much more understated than she had imagined; no wonder his identity was so mysterious on Worry-Free Island.
In people's stereotypes, the children of high-ranking officials should travel in a grand procession with luxury cars leading the way.
But inside the car, besides Lin Xi and Yin, there was only the male bodyguard that Yin had brought with her.
It turns out that the other people behind him were all from the military region.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Lin Xi looked at the road ahead and felt increasingly uneasy. Why was it getting more and more remote the further they went?
There is a restricted area on Worry-Free Island. This area was never developed from the beginning and was later surrounded by iron fences.
Lin Xi looked at the conspicuous sign next to the iron fence: No Entry!
Then she watched as the iron fence slowly closed in on both sides, and the male bodyguard drove in as if nothing had happened.
Good grief, this "No Entry" sign is just a convenient hiding place for him, isn't it?
After walking for a while, the view finally opened up.
A small villa came into view, its outer wall made of countless thin iron wires intertwined and crackling with electrical current.
Wow! Is it powered on?
Yin sat in the back row with her eyes closed, not intending to respond to her childish question.
The driver didn't even look at her and ignored what she said.
After passing through the iron gate, the car stopped.
Unexpectedly, things became even more complicated after entering the villa.
Lin Xi lowered her head, wondering to herself, "Just how many people has Yin offended outside?"
Are you really that afraid of being killed?
With such complicated procedures, Lin Xi felt that she probably wouldn't be able to get out without someone guiding her.
Yin glanced out the window; the sky was gradually darkening.
"Sir, Miss Xiaoyu has been looking for you all day."
Yin frowned. "Didn't I tell you to tell her I had something to do today?"
"I did tell her, but Miss Xiaoyu still asks every two hours if Mr. has returned yet."
Yin took off her coat and looked at the male bodyguard, "Arrange a room for her, I'll go check it out first."
Hosted by Xiaoyu?
It turns out that Yin really did bring her along.
Lin Xi took a step forward. "Wait! Did you forget what you promised me?"
"Pack your luggage first, we'll talk later." Yin handed her coat to another person. "Don't worry, I never go back on my word."
fart!
She remembered that Xiaoyu had asked him to stay in the capital, but then he turned around and ran away with his people.
And they never break their promises.
What a liar!
However, Lin Xi also knew that she should be more restrained on someone else's turf, so she didn't directly stop him this time.
To avoid arousing suspicion, Lin Xi even pretended to be carrying a suitcase.
"To avoid unnecessary trouble, I need to open your box and check it."
Lin Xi nodded. "I understand. You can drive."
The older brother squatted down, looked at it for a long time, and finally looked up again, "Password."
"666".
The eldest brother lowered his head again and opened the box with a serious expression.
"Brother, what's your surname?"
"open."
"Oh, Brother Zhang, just how many experts are living in this building? What kind of experts are they? Are they male or female? What kind of superpowers do they have? Are they good-looking?"
The older brother's impatience was practically bursting out of his head. He casually rummaged through her things and then slammed the suitcase shut with a snap.
Lin Xi was startled and muttered softly, "What's wrong with talking about it? We'll have to meet sooner or later anyway, won't we?"
"Third brother, the master prefers quiet. You need to change your talkative habit," Brother Zhang warned, standing up with a serious expression.
"He's not here..."
Brother Zhang picked up her suitcase and handed it to her, saying, "Here, come with me."
Lin Xi followed him into the elevator, and then saw Brother Zhang press -1.
"basement?"
Brother Zhang nodded.
Lin Xi's expression wasn't good, and she started to act childish, "I don't want to live in the basement anymore, it's easy to get rheumatism!"
“Apart from Mr. and Miss Xiaoyu, everyone else lives on the basement level.” Brother Zhang felt that she was pushing her luck, and his dislike for her grew even stronger.
Isn't it just using superpowers to get ahead?
I don't know what you were thinking, sir. This little brat has such a terrible personality.
She's been chattering on and on ever since she came in; it's really annoying.
While he was still internally complaining, Lin Xi started talking again.
Are there many people living on the basement level?
"Seven or eight, I guess?"
Are there more men or women?
"There are more men."
Lin Xi tightened her grip on the suitcase. "Oh? Then, as a young woman with no strength to even kill a chicken, won't I be in great danger?"
Brother Zhang slowly turned his head, his face full of question marks. "Say that again? You can't even kill a chicken?"
She's talking nonsense about being able to beat up someone who's 1.87 meters tall, has superpowers, and has even practiced Sanda (Chinese kickboxing).
Lin looked up at the ceiling, realizing he might have overdone it a bit.
That's how I finally beat this guy down.
It's really inappropriate to say that.
She thought for a moment, "Actually, I'm usually very gentle. I don't fight or swear, do you believe me?"
Brother Zhang's lips twitched. "Whatever you say goes."
