After hanging up the phone, Venus Mu’s hand was still trembling, so Kerry Ye gently pulled the phone
out of her hand.
Hearing the man’s request, originally, he was going to get on the plane with Venus, but the current
situation wouldn’t allow him to do so, even if there was a GPS with her.
“You can’t go with me, it’s too dangerous. I’ll be spotted as soon as I get on the plane, and I don’t want
my child to get hurt anymore.” Venus bent her body, burying her face in her arms. Though Kerry didn’t
see her eyes, he knew she had made up her mind to do so.
Kerry didn’t say anything. On the one hand, he was afraid of something happening to the child. On the
other hand, he worried about Venus. They were both his beloved ones and he didn’t want them to be in
a risk.
After a quite long time, Kerry said in a mute voice, “Okay, you go first and I’ll follow you later.” When he
found out the treasure map was stolen, it made sense to go after her.
“OK.” Venus knew this was a tough decision for him to make, but they had no choice.
Sadness was spreading. At this moment, the hone in Kerry’ s hand rang again, and it was Xuan Chu.
“Try to keep him in Sky City.”
Venus nodded and cleared her throat to answer the phone, “Hello?”
“Yan, you get it?!” Xuan Chu sounded very excited.
Venus pretended to be happy, “Yes, you’re quite well-informed.”
“Did you get it?!”
Venus looked at Kerry and said, “I told him that I wanted to see what the treasure map looked like, so
he took it out and now it’s in the study.”
“That’s it?” Xuan Chu was surprised to ask. He thought she would have to go through a lot of trouble to
get it, but he didn’t expect it to be so simple.
Venus was proud, “Don’t you know a famous Chinese saying? Even a hero will be trapped by a
beauty? Or are you not confident about your sister’s appearance?”
She was right, but he was trapped by Venus, not Yan Chu.
Xuan Chu laughed on the phone, “The honey trap is really useful, so when are you going to leave? I’ll
go with you.”
When Venus heard the last words, she stopped smiling, “We leave together?”
“Of course, my job has done.”
Venus looked at Kerry and said, “Isn’t the amusement park opening soon? Can you leave at this
moment?”
“It’s basically over. I don’t have any more work here anymore.” And there’s another reason for him to
leave, and that was, once Kerry found out that Yan Chu was missing, he would be the first one to
suffer, so it’s too dangerous for him to stay in this city.
Venus hesitated for a moment and said. “Xuan Chu, we can’t go together.”
“Why?” Xuan Chu was startled.
“You have to help me hold Kerry back so that I have the chance to get away, otherwise I’ll be caught by
him before I get to the airport tomorrow, and then we’ll both be exposed.” Venus said in a serious
manner.
Kerry didn’t answer her immediately and he was balancing. There was no doubt that Venus was right,
but to be honest, he was a bit frightened to face the wrath of Kerry.
Sensing his hesitation, she continued to convince him, “I know what you’re worried about. You can
arrange the route for me in advance and I’ll send you a text message as soon as I get on the plane.
Then you can withdraw. Don’t worry, I’ll tell him who I really am when I get on the plane, so he won’t do
anything to you. You’re the young master of Chu family and you two are partners.”
Xuan Chu still didn’t say anything. She wondered whether he was thinking about what she had said.
After several minutes’ silence, Venus sighed and said, “Xuan Chu, if you don’t help me, neither of us
will be able to leave, and your friend won’t get the map. Think about it yourself and give me an answer
later.”
Pretending to hang up the phone, she heard Xuan Chu asking, “Wait, I promise you. When are you
going to leave?”
“Tomorrow morning.”
“I see. I’ll ask Kerry to go to the construction site with me. Move fast.”
“Thank you, Xuan Chu.” Venus hung up the phone and he had already sent the location. It was the
Honolulu International Airport on Hawaii Island.
Kerry took a glance. When he saw the address, he couldn’t help but frown, recalling the world map in
his brain, and then said, “Honolulu is the center of the Pacific Ocean and is also the hub of the Pacific
air and sea traffic, known as the crossroads of the Pacific Ocean. Asking you to go there is for a very
clear purpose. Whether by plane or ship, he can quickly leave, and we can’t know the direction of his
leaving.”
Venus could see his worry in his eyes and said softly, “I will take care of myself, and besides, I still have
a chip on me, so you will know where I am at any time.”
Kerry was stressful. He cuddled her into his arms and whispered, “But I’m still worried about you.
Venus, you don’t know how I feel now.”
He hated the helpless feeling of watching his woman step into the danger while he couldn’t do
anything.
“You’ve always liked to control the whole situation. Therefore, once something is out of your control,
you will feel uneasy. I know this feeling.”
Kerry shook his head and confided, “No, it’s not just that. I feel bad because of you. I’m afraid that
something will happen to you, and I’m also afraid that you’ll never come back. I can’t imagine the life
without you.”
Venus sat up straight in his arms. She was surprised to know that he was afraid that she would leave
him again?
“You’re right. Although you have forgiven me and gradually accepted me, but I have no confidence. I
am afraid that after you save the child, you’ll leave without hesitation. Just as you once said. You’ll find
a place where no one knows you, and live a quiet life.” Kerry looked at her with deep affection, whose
voice became more and more hoarse, “If you really do so, it’s like giving me a death sentence. Then I
will have a very difficult time in the remaining decades.”
Venus was touched by his confession, whose heart was warm as the winter sunshine. She used to plan
in this way, but after falling in love with Kerry a little bit, she had changed her thought.
She believed that he would give her the best love in the world and the best father’s love to her child, so
why not give herself a chance? And give her child a family?
Venus raised her hand to carefully touch the outline of his face, and slowly said, “I promise you, when I
find the child, I will come back.”
Kerry eyes immediately shinned as the brightest stars in the sky and excitedly grabbed her hand,
“Really? Are you serious?”
“Yes. I won’t leave you unless one day you get tired of me…”
“No. That day won’t come.” Kerry interrupted her, “I won’t get tired of you even if I get tired of myself.”
“Well, fine.” Venus smiled.
Kerry fondled the delicate her face and told the secret that had been hidden in his heart for a long time,
“I used to be very bad to you, do you know why?”
Venus frowned and thought, “Because I’m the sister of Tianye?”
“That’s just one aspect.”
“What else? Because I didn’t give it to you my virginity?” Venus asked tentatively. Although she now
knew he was her first man, she didn’t want to tell him, otherwise he would be arrogant.
“This should be considered as the trigger,”
Venus was quite dissatisfied, “Just tell me, OK? Honestly, time has changed. You are at least an well-
educated man, so why do you care so much about the virginity?”
Kerry sighed, “It is because of my parents.”
“Your parents? What does this have to do with them?” Venus got curious.
Kerry stopped and looked at her with a complicated look, “This is kind of an embarrassing family secret
and I’ve never told anyone. I once said that my parents had a bad relationship and the important
reason is that…my mother betrayed her marriage. She had another man.”
“Really?” Venus was shocked, for she never thought it would be the reason. Kerry was good-looking,
so his parents should be the same. Besides, their economic condition was also good, how could…
“Surprised, right? When I learned the truth, I was surprised, too.” Kerry laughed at himself, “In my
opinion, Mom was a very gentle and elegant woman. I still remember that it was in my junior three and
when I just came back from school, I heard my parents arguing. That was their first fight, so I had a
deep impression. My father accused her of not being responsible for this family, and my mother
accused him of being weak… Oh, I will never forget that day.”
“After that day, they often fought with each other and I got used to it. One day they had another fight,
and mom didn’t come back after she went out that night, and dad smoked cigarettes by the window all
night. At that time, I really hated my mom and I felt sorry for my dad. The next day, she came back and
my dad told her he wanted a divorce. However, mom didn’t want it. She said she couldn’t bear the pain
to leave the kids… Hmm, that’s funny. When she was hanging out with her lover, did she ever think of
me and my brother? I know that she was actually reluctant to say goodbye to Ye family’s property.”
Venus was shocked to hear this, for she never thought there was such a secret in Ye family.
