Chapter 421: Chapter 421: eting the Young Master
Shang Yueling was dumbfounded after pulling it down.
“How could this happen?” Why is it a black bucket!
To mislead Lott, ng Lai, and others, the young rman was most skilled at pretending to be obedient and compliant, understanding how to read the room to achieve the most favorable outcos swiftly.
The young rman imdiately acted as if frightened by her, trembling while looking at Shang Yueling, appearing innocent and pitiful as if scared by her.
In the presence of everyone, he left behind panicked tears, shrinking back into the bucket so that only his eyes were visible, and silently cried toward Lu Xining and Cheng Cang, occasionally glancing at the gritting Shang Yueling, putting on a perfect act of a manipulative young man.
Seeing him like this, Lu Xining couldn’t help but twitch her lips, suppressing the urge to laugh, took back the black cloth from her hand, and said coldly, “Shang Yueling, this isn’t the Shang Family, it’s not a place where you can do whatever you want.”
“…” Cheng Cang also turned his back, shoulders shaking.
He hadn’t forgotten the explosive power of the young rman, who had knocked out two adult n with a flick of his tail a few minutes ago. He finally understood why n always fail to see the true nature of a manipulative woman; with the young rman’s spontaneous acting skills, he almost believed he was an innocent little victim.
Lu Xining wrapped the black cloth around the outside of the bucket again, instructing Cheng Cang and the forr mbers of the Chu Family to quickly leave with the young rman.
“You can’t just leave like this.”
Ji Muye stopped her, pulling her aside.
He said in a low voice, “It is the only biological experint left from the Royal Cruise, and it’s evidence against ng Lai and Danrus.”
“… We must hand him over to the state.”
If he watched her take away the young rman, whether it was Shang Yueling or others exposing it, it would be a ticking ti bomb of potential danger for Lu Xining.
Ji Muye didn’t want the existence of the young rman to beco a scythe hanging over Lu Xining. The best solution was to hand the young rman over to the state.
When he t the innocent and confused gaze of the young rman, he suddenly rembered his daughter at ho, Little Dumpling, who always asked him to coax her brother, overlapping montarily with the young rman’s appearance.
As the most successful experintal subject in Lott’s decades of research, the young rman’s five senses, under the influence of drugs and other hormonal components, were much sharper than ordinary people’s.
He cleverly caught the change in Ji Muye’s gaze, making an effort to stare at him with the purest of eyes.
“…” Ji Muye hesitated with the words he wanted to say next.
The young rman first looked at Ji Muye, then at Lu Xining, imdiately realizing that she was the one with the real decision-making power, and quickly turned his head to look at her pitifully.
Lu Xining also understood the implication in Ji Muye’s words.
Cheng Cang and the others who were waiting at the side were all waiting for her decision.
Shang Yueling wanted to approach Shang Lvxing, still unwilling to give up arousing his protective instinct, but unfortunately, Shang Lvxing’s mind was entirely on his disconnected brother, continuously contacting people to investigate Haozi’s whereabouts.
As her gaze wandered, she saw Lu Xining walk over to the young rman and mutter a few words.
After taking just two steps, she wanted to get closer to eavesdrop on what they were saying, but when her gaze t the young rman’s, a fear of being hunted by a beast spread in her heart, making her scalp tingle.
Shang Yueling quickly stopped, silently stepped back a few paces, and hid behind Shang Lvxing.
The young rman, having listened to Lu Xining’s words, showed sadness and disappointnt in his eyes as if abandoned. His hands were on the edge of the bucket, and although he hadn’t made any physical contact with her, he inexplicably gave the impression of tugging at her sleeve.
“Sister Ning, maybe we should take him with us. He looks so pitiful. As long as we don’t say anything, and neither the Ji Family nor the Shang Family says anything, no one will know about these matters.”
He directly ignored ng Lai and Rexiva, who were passed out on the ground, and was about to push the bucket to leave when he heard Lu Xining say, “Stop.”
“Hand him over to Ji Muye.”
“Sister Ning!”
“Give him to him, and we go.”
“…”
Cheng Cang glanced at the helpless young rman, as if wanting to say sothing, but seeing the look in Lu Xining’s eyes, he let go of his hand.
If they didn’t leave now, they wouldn’t be able to leave at all.
Ji Muye watched Lu Xining’s departing figure, no longer trying to make her follow him away.
People often carry an implicit admiration for strength or a sense of protection towards the weak; his feelings for Lu Xining were now caught between these two emotions.
Seeing her reach her current position step by step, he felt a spontaneous pride, and he grew increasingly eager to see how far she could go in the future.
Ma Sai looked at the black bucket left behind and the young rman before him, seemingly losing all interest in the current situation, and deliberated, “Boss, should we really hand this over to…”
Ji Muye shot him a glance, and Ma Sai imdiately understood his intention.
He arranged for so people to take over Cheng Cang’s previous task, leading the bucket and the young rman toward the elevator.
After Lu Xining left, Shang Lvxing also promptly followed her out.
Shang Yueling, who pounded her feet and followed closely, wanted to board the helicopter with him, anxiously saying, “Brother Lvxing, you can’t leave !”
The blue official organization won’t leave anyone on this ship behind.
Shang Lvxing’s eyes were dark and cold in the night breeze as he coolly said, “Han Nijuan.”
Upon hearing her real na from the past, Shang Yueling was struck with terror, shocked at how he knew her forr na.
Clearly, soone assured her that everything had been handled cleanly, and no one would know her past. She could beco the real “Shang Yueling,” and be the eldest daughter of the Shang Family!
“If you don’t want to go back to that small village, behave yourself.”
Han Nijuan: “!!!”
The helicopter’s rotors were loud, yet she still distinctly heard his emotionless voice, watching helplessly as he left without looking back even once.
Lu Xining took a speedboat to another yacht anchored not far away.
The forr mbers of the Chu Family were all present.
Including the person Lu Xining had t in Beicheng earlier.
She casually tossed the “Heart of the Deep Sea” to him, and a gleam flashed in his eyes, clearly looking at her differently than in the past.
He had already learned everything from the higher-ups about the events on the Royal Cruise and knew what she had done. Despite so involvent from the Ji and Shang families in the subsequent matters, obtaining the “Heart of the Deep Sea” was her own doing.
He bowed deeply, his tone respectful, “Wu Shi, greetings to the Young Master.”
Even without knowing there were forr Chu Family mbers on the Royal Cruise, she dared to board the ship with Cheng Cang, even when unsure if Cheng Cang was trustworthy. That courage alone was worthy of the surna “Chu Zhan.”
Though a third of the people on the ship belonged to the Chu Family, during her ti on board, Lu Xining relied solely on herself without using their forces.
Seeing Wu Shi act so reverently, the others quickly followed suit, bowing in obeisance.
The wind lifted the edges of her coat as Lu Xining looked at the dark mass before her, her pupils bright and sharp.
Here, she truly gained the power of the Chu Family.
