Gong Jue said angrily, “Hmph, I can’t be bothered to care if he goes or not. However, I can’t allow an insensible sick person like him to go to the Ghost Island to cause trouble for my woman and prevent my woman from going to the Great Pharmacist Guild Conference!”
Special Assistant Lu’s lips twitched.
Master Jue doted on his wife like crazy. He’s really hopeless!
Special Assistant Lu turned and prepared to execute the order to intercept Chu Junmo’s plane.
Just as he took a step away, he heard Gong Jue’s cold voice behind him again. “Wait! Find a piece of crocodile skin and think of a way to stuff it into his luggage.”
Special Assistant Lu was stunned.
Crocodile skin?
What kind of gag is that?
Then he reacted.
Customs in many countries did not allow passengers to bring sensitive items. For example, poison, ivory, rare animals and plants…
Crocodile skin happened to be one of the items that foreigners were not allowed to bring in and out of customs in the Kingdom of Tonga.
Once they were found out, passengers would have their luggage confiscated and be prevented from entering the country. Not only that, if they exceeded a certain amount, according to local law, they would be suspected of being smugglers and would be sentenced to at least ten days of detention!
Special Assistant Lu understood. Master Jue wanted double insurance so that Chu Junmo could not enter the country. He wanted to watch him covet Young Lady Qiqi but fail to come into contact with her. Haha.
“Think of a way to get more crocodile skin and put it in!” Gong Jue said faintly from behind.
Special Assistant Lu staggered.
His Lord wanted CEO Chu to commit a crime and be detained for more than ten days.
Too horrible!
What had he praised Master Jue for just now?
Yes, yes. Open-minded and admirable.
Now, he wanted to take back his words! Master Jue was clearly the most scheming one!

**City of Tonga**
Outside the bistro.
After Gu Qiqi heard Old Man Huo Ba’s words, she frowned slightly.
Had she provoked a witch doctor that she shouldn’t have?
The old man with the scar advised her kindly, “Miss, although those people have escaped, they are very vengeful. In a few minutes, they will definitely go to their boss, the witch doctor, to complain and ask him to support them. They will be back to seek revenge. I advise you to leave the capital quickly. You don’t know that the witch doctor can cover the sky here…”
Leave?
Now?
It was already dark. The ships in the port had stopped. She couldn’t go to the Ghost Island. The earliest she could go was tomorrow.
Seeing Gu Qiqi hesitate, the old man with the scar suggested kindly, “If you don’t mind, there’s a cellar for you to hide in…”
Gu Qiqi shook her head. “Thank you for your kindness. It’s not convenient for me to disturb you.”
Since these people were local bullies, wouldn’t they be able to find her no matter where she fled to?
Why make trouble for this nice old man?
She noticed that, like her, he spoke the language of the Empire, not English.
Perhaps the old man saw that she had an oriental face and was eager to remind her?
All the more reason for her not to implicate him.
Gu Qiqi politely rejected the old man’s good intentions and bade him farewell.
However, she turned back towards the tavern!
The old man looked at her in surprise and couldn’t figure out Gu Qiqi’s intentions. Could it be that this young lady thought that the most dangerous place was the safest place?
He shook his head, his eyes troubled.
Young people still didn’t know the dangers of this world…
In the bistro.
When Gu Qiqi lifted the curtain and entered.
Everyone in the room shuddered.
Just now, Gu Qiqi had challenged several strong men alone. It really shocked everyone.
This directly caused their wrists and legs to tremble involuntarily when they saw Gu Qiqi.
