“Brother Wudi, I just heard from someone that there’s a beast competition on the second floor underground tonight. It seems to be very exciting. Do you want to go and take a look?” Long Jiuyuan thought for a while and probed.
“No, I’m not in the mood!” Xing Wudi rejected without thinking.
“Then what do you plan to do during this long night?” Long Jiuyuan asked in a seductive voice.
“Do I need to report to you what I’m going to do?” Xing Wudi said coldly.
Long Jiuyuan did not care about his attitude. Instead, she asked directly, “If I’m not wrong, you must be planning to look for Feng Qing tonight, right? Have you always suspected that she was not caught and had been hiding somewhere on the ship?”
She had grown up with Xing Wudi. The two of them ate, played, and slept together. She knew Xing Wudi as if she knew herself. As long as Xing Wudi had an expression, she could see through his thoughts.
Xing Wudi’s cold gaze glared at her indifferently. “None of your business!”
Long Jiuyuan was really like a roundworm in his stomach. She had indeed seen through his thoughts very thoroughly, but his thoughts were completely on Feng Qing and not Long Jiuyuan at all. He did plan to continue looking for Feng Qing at night. He did not believe that Feng Qing had really been caught. Otherwise, why would the owner of the Divine’s Light refuse to meet him and trade with Feng Qing?
Of course, if Feng Qing was really captured, he had to figure out where Feng Qing was being held and then think of a way to save her. After smoking three cigarettes in a row and calming himself down, Xing Wudi changed into a new set of clothes and walked out.
Looking at the man’s back view as he left, Long Jiuyuan’s eyes narrowed slightly. In the past, she was still skeptical. It was only today that she completely believed the results of the previous investigation. As long as he met Feng Qing, Xing Wudi’s soul would be taken away. Moreover, this Xing Wudi, this kind of Xing Wudi who did not care about anything but Feng Qing, made her feel unfamiliar from the bottom of her heart. She originally thought that Xing Wudi was just interested in Feng Qing for a while, but now, it looked like it was not that simple. She knew Xing Wudi, and knew that this man had fallen for her. Long Jiuyuan never expected that there was actually a woman in this world who could control Xing Wudi’s emotions so easily. It was simply unbelievable.
For the first time, a serious expression appeared in Long Jiuyuan’s eyes. Before today, even though she had long known of Feng Qing’s existence, she had never taken her seriously. However, Xing Wudi’s reaction to Feng Qing today, where he would rather go bankrupt just to buy Feng Qing, filled her with a sense of danger from the bottom of her heart. Seeing Xing Wudi’s figure completely disappear, a cold killing intent flashed across Long Jiuyuan’s beautiful eyes. She clenched her fists tightly. This was the first time in her life that she had such killing intent for someone.
…
The sun set in the west. When the afterglow of the sun completely disappeared from the sea level, everyone welcomed the first night on the open sea. Unlike on land, the night on the sea was especially dark. Although almost all the lights on the cruise ship were switched on, standing on the deck still gave off a dark feeling. At this moment, the cruise ship had already slowed down, as if it was driving aimlessly in the pitch-black night.
Feng Qing came out of the bathroom. The warm water allowed her body to relax for a while. Then, under the service of the three female attendants, she changed into an ice-blue princess dress. When she walked out of the cloakroom after putting on her makeup, she saw Di Qianmo sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed. Just like before, the man was wearing a mask again. There was a skull pattern printed on it. Feng Qing couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows and feel a little puzzled. She had seen the man’s true appearance during the day. Why was he wearing a mask again? Was he afraid of being seen?
However, she recalled what Xing Yue and the rest had said previously. She knew that her fourth brother, Di Qianmo, had grown up by her father’s side since he was young. Moreover, he had been forced to wear female clothes and had always treated him as his daughter. This made Di Qianmo’s heart gradually change and become distorted. In the end, he became someone who didn’t want to see or speak to anyone. He had been wearing a mask since he was sensible.
However, just as Feng Qing was observing Di Qianmo, he suddenly exploded and transformed into a cheetah that pounced on Feng Qing. Feng Qing did not resist and was pressed against the wall by Di Qianmo. At the same time, she felt a chill on her neck. Di Qianmo took out a black dagger and pressed it against her pink neck.
