Chapter 720: It Seems Like He’s the Ambitious Man
Zi Yi thought for a while before she said, “The last time before we left for Country Em.”
Lu Jingye’s hand tightened on Zi Yi’s waist and even his breathing became difficult. “Then after that when we…”
Ever since they arrived at Country Em, they had done it more than once.
“It’s fine.” Zi Yi knew what he was worried about and she stroked his face while giggling. “Our baby is very strong and it’s totally fine.”
Lu Jingye still had some lingering fears and he put her down on the bed as he hugged her sideways. “We can’t be too careless about this. What should be refrained from should be refrained from.”
Zi Yi nodded her head. “I’ll let the baby remain in my womb for three months. Three months later, I’ll put the baby into the nutrient solution.”
“Okay.”
The two of them chatted for a while more and then slept.
…
It started raining the next day.
When Zi Yi went downstairs and saw the pouring rain outside, she then turned to look at Lu Jingye, who was sitting on the sofa and working. She walked over and sat next to him as she said, “Ah Jing, it’s raining.”
Lu Jingye responded and put the laptop aside. He stood up and said, “I made some wontons this morning, I’ll go cook them for you.”
Zi Yi followed him into the kitchen. “Have you eaten?”
“Yes. I ate together with Yunxiao.”
It was already past 8 a.m. right now and Lu Yunxiao had returned at 6 a.m. in the morning. The two brothers had a discussion about some matters and after they finished breakfast, Lu Yunxiao left once again.
Zi Yi thought of how Lu Yunxiao had been staying outside every day and she asked out of concern, “Yunxiao is staying outside all day, does he even rest at night?”
“He has a place to rest.”
They walked into the kitchen and Lu Jingye turned on the stove to boil some water. At the same time, he warmed up the chicken soup.
Zi Yi took a whiff of the delicious chicken soup and her stomach started grumbling in a timely manner.
Lu Jingye had also heard it. He touched her tummy with his hand and asked, “Do you want to have some chicken soup first?”
Lu Jingye had gotten the bodyguard to prepare the chicken soup last night and the stove was only turned off at around 6 a.m. in the morning. As such, the soup was still warm.
Zi Yi nodded her head and said, “Yes.”
Lu Jingye took out a bowl and scooped half a bowl of soup for her. Zi Yi continued looking inside the pot as she drank from the bowl.
Just then, Little Loli revealed her head and said, “I knew you would be in here!”
Zi Yi looked at Little Loli who had changed her hairstyle and she asked, “Where did you go? You even turned your hair color purple?”
“Does it look good?”
Little Loli came in and did a twirl in front of Zi Yi.
Zi Yi looked at her and said in disdain, “Your wig is going to fly into my bowl.”
Little Loli giggled and she took a step back before she said, “Sister, guess where I went?”
Zi Yi checked her from head to toe and made a guess. “You went to the clubhouse.”
Little Loli was surprised. “Sister, how did you know?”
“There’s the scent from the clubhouse all over you.”
It was a place where dangerous figures lurked around. There was the scent of cigarettes, alcohol, perfume, and some special scent. As long as Zi Yi carefully smelled the scent, she would be able to identify it.
“Why did you go to the clubhouse?”
“Oppa Yunxiao and I went to monitor Long Aotian’s men.”
There was only that one clubhouse in the whole of City X. Even if Lu Yunxiao had taken care of Long Aotian’s men last night, it would not hinder them from heading there again the next day.
Zi Yi nodded her head and casually asked, “What did you discover?”
“Long Aotian’s men have purchased large quantities of weapons and explosives.”
Zi Yi stiffened for a second and tilted her head to look at Lu Jingye. “Long Aotian is planning to blow us up?”
Lu Jingye had a calm expression as if the things he was saying were something trivial. “He also invited several other influential bosses in the Bermuda Triangle.”
Zi Yi sneered. “Long Aotian is planning to wipe everyone out and dominate the Bermuda Triangle.”
“Yes.”
“It seems like he is quite the ambitious man.”
Just then, the wontons were finished cooking. Lu Jingye placed them in a bowl and they went out of the kitchen.
After Zi Yi started eating the wontons, Lu Jingye said, “Long Aotian always had such ambitions. He hadn’t had the ability before, but with the female worm and Rick’s help, he thinks that the time is now ripe.”
Upon hearing Rick’s name, Zi Yi thought of something and frowned. “It’s possible that the female worm had already gotten her child to take over Rick’s body.”
Lu Jingye had also thought of this possibility. “Therefore, you have to pay attention to your surroundings then.”
“Brother-in-law, I’m not afraid of a child worm. I’ll go take care of Rick when the time comes.”
Zi Yi looked at Little Loli who was seated opposite her and nodded. “The female worm must have brought along many child worms this time round. You and Shadow can use the detector to identify and take care of them.”
“Okay.”
Lu Jingye waited for Zi Yi to finish her bowl of wontons before he continued to do his work.
Zi Yi stood by the door and watched the heavy downpour. She asked Lu Jingye, “Ah Jing, when are we heading over?”
Long Aotian had invited them for lunch and it was already 9 a.m.
“No hurry.” Lu Jingye’s eyes were fixed on his laptop. While he scrolled down the screen he said, “We’ll set off at 11 a.m.”
Zi Yi nodded and asked, “Will Yunxiao be going together with us?”
“He will stand guard outside.”
…
At 9 a.m.
Ouyang Ming secretly went to the hotel He Fei was staying at.
After a day’s recovery, He Fei’s body was much better. The moment he saw Ouyang Ming coming in, he immediately said. “Ah Ming, Second Brother did not kill my father.”
Ouyang Ming originally came to inform He Fei of the good news. The moment he heard what He Fei said, he immediately clicked his tongue in displeasure. “Ah He, did Lu Jingye say something to you?”
Speaking of this, he got angry and sneered. “He said he didn’t kill your father and you really believed him?”
“Our phones were blocked!” He Fei furrowed his brow. He did not know how to explain it to him.
“Blocked?” Ouyang Ming sneered and asked, “When your father was killed, who contacted you?”
“My mother?”
“Since it was your mother who contacted you, do you think she would lie?”
He Fei blanked out momentarily.
Ouyang Ming looked at him with an expression as if hating He Fei for failing to meet his expectations. He gnashed his teeth and softly shouted, “Can’t you grow up? Are you going to lose your brain whenever you see that woman?”
He Fei said urgently, “No, it was Second Brother who told me.”
“He told you?!” Ouyang Ming looked at He Fei and got so angry that he paced around the room. If not for the fact that He Fei could not move, he wished that he could grab him and give him a beating. “The one who killed your father is Lu Jingye. Have you ever seen anyone admitting that they killed someone?”
He Fei’s frown tightened. “Second Brother would never lie.”
“Ha!” Ouyang Ming looked at him with a dark expression. There was no need to mention how disappointed he was. He then sarcastically said, “Since you trust him so much, then you can continue to be friends with the man who killed Uncle He.”
He turned to leave after he said his piece.
“Ah Ming.” He Fei looked at Ouyang Ming’s back view and an ominous feeling surged forth deep down. In particular when Ouyang Ming did not bother to stop. He panicked and shouted loudly, “Ouyang Ming… cough cough…”
That cough of his triggered both his internal and external injuries and he started coughing non-stop.
