Tan Bengbeng did not have a chance to breathe as a series of questions erupted from Qi Yan’s mouth.
He rolled his wheelchair up to her and raised his head to look at her with a burning gaze.
With the casualness that he always sported, he flashed a devilish smile and said, “I like being implicated by you…”
“…”
She had encountered people who were not afraid of death, but she had never seen anyone who delivered his life on his own accord.
Tan Bengbeng was speechless for a moment.
However, her relaxed state of mind throughout the past few months disappeared without a trace the moment she thought of the Mo Family. She transformed into her cold and detached personality again, along with a trace of callousness.
Turning around, she returned to the cabin and dug out the cell phone that Qi Yan had passed to her yesterday. Then, she asked him for the password.
“One to six.” Qi Yan replied casually.
Tan Bengbeng did not suspect anything and keyed in the six-digit password swiftly.
When she pressed the “confirm” key, she even thought that she would not have been in such a pitiful state yesterday if she had known that the password would be such a simple combination…
Before her thoughts could form, the “wrong password” notification had already shown up on the cell phone screen.
“Wrong? Then it must be six to one. I had remembered it wrongly.” Qi Yan said with a look of sincerity.
Tan Bengbeng keyed in another time, but the password was still wrong.
This time, her gaze toward Qi Yan had changed.
Qi Yan raised his hands hurriedly and said, “The third try must be right, I swear with my integrity!”
Qi Yan gave her another set of numbers after he had finished speaking.
Tan Bengbeng’s temper had vanished by the time she had keyed in the combination.
As the password had been keyed in wrongly three times in a row, the cell phone had automatically activated its protection mode and it could not be used for the next 24 hours.
Tan Bengbeng turned around and looked at the man, who was currently laughing so hard that he had bent over his wheelchair, all because his plan to trick her had succeeded. She could hardly control herself and even had the thought of smashing the cell phone right into his gleeful face!
To her, he was someone who no longer possessed any integrity!
What’s so funny!
Jerk!
Just as Tan Bengbeng started to suspect if he had also lied to her about being targeted by the bad people, the assistant had already walked toward them and started to report.
“Master, we have managed to track Feng Ling’s whereabouts, and it is highly possible that she was the one who revealed our location. How should we settle this?”
Tan Bengbeng instantly felt some changes in Qi Yan’s attitude after the assistant finished speaking.
He was still sitting in the wheelchair with a lazy posture and a sinister smile… Everything seemed the same as before.
However, his gaze had changed.
The coldness and ruthlessness that poured out from his eyes were something that Tan Bengbeng had never seen before.
Aware that he had to settle some work, Tan Bengbeng decided to take her leave and walked toward the cabin.
At least she had returned home in her mind, she comforted herself.
She should not rush through this matter. Instead, it would be more advantageous if she got ashore after ensuring that there were no other issues.
She would wait another two more days…
Soon after, she saw the assistant leaving on a small speedboat that was attached to the cruise ship. However, Tan Bengbeng was not aware of what Qi Yan had told the assistant.
The ship docked at a nearby harbor and he got ashore.
It seemed as if he had received an instruction from him and was on his way to complete some sort of a mission.
A private island.
The herb garden that took up lots of land, as well as the superb medicine making skills.
A luxurious cruise ship.
Along with his well-trained subordinates…
She had the urge to ask him what kind of person he was, but she didn’t dare pop the question even when the words were already on the tip of her tongue.
She was afraid that he would ask her the same question.
Both of them were secretive people; since he did not look into her secrets, she should not look into his.
After they got off the ship, they would become two individuals from two different worlds; they would return to leading their own lives, without any chance of coming into contact with each other anymore.
As such, knowing about his identity no longer seem like an important matter.
Tan Bengbeng did not have a good sleep last night and she had woken up at an early hour this morning just to catch the sunrise.
