Chapter 260: Chapter 257: Offending the Elder Brother-in-law

Huo Sining’s expression changed after she returned to her room.

Although she was skeptical about what Su Lan had said, the fact that this person had a pearl with the sa properties as her Water-Repelling Pearl was true.

What exactly was going on? Was this person really here to find her? And how did he get those injuries?

Huo Sining’s mind was a ss, unable to sort through the confusion.

On the other side of the cabin, a man regarded as delusional was incredibly annoyed when suddenly, a corner of the room filled with snickering laughter, and a figure slowly erged.

“Finally, you’re here. I thought you might have been entranced by so beauty and couldn’t move your legs,”

Su Lan, in a bad mood, looked up and said irritably to the figure.

The person was not annoyed; he chuckled, “Young Master, you seed to be enjoying yourself so much; how could I dare to co out and spoil your fun?”

Su Lan gave the person a half-smile, “So, you just watched your master get trapped by a few inferior Dongyang people, letting them do whatever they wanted, slicing

for experints without planning to save ?”

The person laughed, “You’re joking, right? Just a few ordinary people trapping you? I saw you having fun, so I didn’t bother to interfere. Or, do you think I should have acted differently?”

Su Lan glanced at the person, “Fine, a protector with more ideas than , then from now on, I’ll just listen to you for everything!”

The person, hearing this, did not change his expression, but stepped back and bowed respectfully, “I wouldn’t dare.”

Su Lan harrumphed, feeling quite displeased.

When the person thought of the conversation Su Lan had just had with Huo Sining in the room, he found it amusing, “Is it really okay for you to deceive Miss Huo like this?”

Su Lan imdiately took offense at this, “What do you an deceive? I’m doing this for her own good. She’s my sister, and we haven’t even had a chance to recognize each other yet. How could I just let her be taken away by so random guy? A guy who started by attacking —do you think I could let my sister follow him? Can’t let good cabbage be ruined by pigs!”

The person broke into a cold sweat upon hearing this, “But it seems like Miss Huo quite fancies Mr. Gu, aren’t you breaking up a pair of lovebirds?”

Upon hearing this, Su Lan was displeased, “Breaking up lovebirds? There’s been no parents’ orders or matchmaker’s words; they haven’t gone through the formal betrothal process, so what kind of lovebirds are they?”

The person couldn’t help but smile wryly, “Nowadays on the mainland, people prefer free love and marriage without the need for formal betrothal.”

Su Lan’s eyebrows rose sharply, “What do you an by that, are you saying I’m old-fashioned and outdated? She has the blood of our clan; she must follow the rules!”

“But Miss Huo’s current state seems to be in a period of chaos; it’s impossible for her to return to the island,” the protector shook his head, disagreeing with Su Lan’s remarks.

Su Lan frowned, “That’s also what I find strange. A Taoist cast a restriction spell on her, erasing her mory. It’s unclear how she managed to make the Ice Spirit Bead accept her as its master. Anyway, discussing this is pointless now. That restriction spell is troubleso; I need to go to Kunlun Mountain to find soone to break it.”

“Do you want

to go with you?”

Su Lan thought for a mont, then shook his head, “No need; the trip won’t take long. You stay in S City and keep an eye on A Ning for . And try to keep that Mr. Gu away from my sister!”

The protector nodded, then abruptly rembered sothing, “What about those Dongyang people?”

At the ntion of this, Su Lan’s expression darkened, and a sinister look flashed in his eyes, “How to deal with them? Don’t worry, they won’t get away. The leader seems to know sothing and was even ready to make a move on A Ning. Keep an eye out, don’t let him get close to A Ning. When I return, I’ll deal with them properly!”

“Yes.”

By the ti the yacht docked, it was already evening. Huo Sining and her companions were packing up their things, preparing to disembark. Zheng Huaqing was just about to instruct the crew to find and carry the injured, unknown man off the ship and take him to the hospital when, unexpectedly, before he could even speak, there ca a cry of surprise from Su Qingqing and Bai Yishan.

“The injured man is gone!”

It turned out that the two had packed up their luggage and were about to check on the injured man, only to discover an empty bed upon entering the room, with no sign of him anywhere on the boat.

Zheng Huaqing felt perplexed: “Wasn’t he always lying in bed? How could he just disappear?”

Su Qingqing and Bai Yishan also found it strange: “We’ve searched everywhere, inside and out, and didn’t see him.”

Ouyang Jun and the others looked at each other in dismay, only Gu Xu and Huo Sining did not seem surprised.

After all, that man had fought with Gu Xu in the room. He was nimble and skilled, clearly a martial artist. Even though he was injured, his complexion remained normal and he didn’t seem to care about it, showing that the injury was not serious to him.

“No need to search anymore, this person must have woken up a long ti ago and escaped as soon as he saw the boat pull into shore,”

said Gu Xu indifferently.

This statent sent a jolt through everyone. A normal person would not flee when a boat docks, unless they were soone with sothing to hide. Rembering that this man had appeared out of nowhere at sea, everyone felt a chill run down their spine as they ca to the sa conclusion.

Could that man be a fugitive on the run?

“Damn it, unless I’m dead, he’s not going to get my sister to marry him!”

Su Lan had just dived into the water from the cabin when he heard Gu Xu’s words and couldn’t help but stop in his tracks, his expression instantly darkening.

So protector, hidden in the shadows, couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth. No wonder their Young Master disliked this Mr. Gu. He had such a strong vengeful spirit: humbled by the Young Master, he turned around and tarnished the Young Master’s reputation. These two had beco enemies, destined to be irreconcilable in the future.

The protector silently mourned for Gu Xu, thinking, “You’ve brought this on yourself; how can you still chase after a wife after offending your brother-in-law?”

However, Huo Sining’s eyes were subtly glancing towards a certain spot in the water, pausing for a mont when scanning over a shadow, a look of recognition and concern flashing through her eyes.

“A Ning, what are you looking at?”

Everyone was heading down from the boat, but Huo Sining stood still on the deck, staring blankly at a certain spot.

Su Qingqing followed Huo Sining’s gaze, but besides the churning water, she saw nothing else, which she found strange. Unable to hold back her curiosity, she asked.

Huo Sining shook her head, “It’s nothing, let’s go.”

The group disembarked, and as they were walking out of the pier, they ran into several people head-on. Zheng Huaqing looked up and couldn’t help but smile upon seeing the newcors: “Mr. Fujiwara, what brings you here? Did you go out to sea as well?”

At these words, Huo Sining paused and instinctively lifted her head to look over at the few people opposite, recognizing the man at the front as none other than Fujiwara Seiho.

Upon seeing Zheng Huaqing, Fujiwara Seiho also hurriedly greeted him. His glance swept over and when he saw Huo Sining standing not far behind Zheng Huaqing, his expression paused for a mont before he nodded and smiled at Huo Sining.
