Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Jiang Junlin leaned quietly against the head of the bed, cold and aloof, pushing people away as if he were a thousand miles apart. This appearance was just like when they first t years ago.
Ji Chi dabbed so ointnt and tried to tend to his wounds, but Jiang Junlin avoided him. Ji Chi coldly snorted, grabbed his chin, and forced him to stay still while he applied the ointnt.
The two of them locked eyes in silence, both harboring a fierce desire to tear each other apart.
Ji Chi, looking down on him, wore a malicious smile. “Big brother, with all these injuries, it excites .”
Jiang Junlin remained unresponsive.
This guy is truly insane!
Whenever n get physical, they never know their limits. Ji Chi could still see the marks on his neck from earlier, which hadn’t faded in days. After applying the ointnt, Ji Chi glanced at the untouched al on the table.
The al delivered an hour ago had already gone cold.
Jiang Junlin, being as delicate as he was, would never touch it again. Ji Chi spoke up, “Niki!”
His bodyguard appeared at the door of the dimly lit room.
Ji Chi ordered, “Bring another al!”
“Yes!”
After applying the ointnt, Ji Chi placed the tube of cream on the table. “Are you planning to starve yourself and not say a word to ?”
Jiang Junlin couldn’t be bothered to look at him, which further infuriated Ji Chi. He pinched Jiang Junlin’s chin and turned it towards himself. “Jiang Junlin, say sothing!”
There was a hint of madness in Ji Chi’s eyes, a faint shade of red. Jiang Junlin remained as cold as ice, his injuries giving him a sowhat disheveled appearance but not diminishing his charm in the slightest.
“You want to be mute?” Ji Chi seed to lose his temper. “Fine, I’ll give you a bowl of mute potion later, make you a complete mute!”
A cold smile played at the corner of Jiang Junlin’s lips. He lowered his gaze, but Ji Chi lifted his chin again. “If you won’t eat, I’ll give you a nutrient solution. You want to die? It’s not that easy. Why tornt yourself like this, big brother? You’re the most sensible person.”
He held Jiang Junlin’s chin, as if he could see himself in Jiang Junlin’s eyes, as if it could make him feel better.
But in the depths of Jiang Junlin’s eyes, there was nothing but frost.
Ji Chi tornted him for a while and then left in a huff.
Niki brought in a steaming hot al. “Mr. Jiang, our master personally prepared all your als. Please, at least eat a little. Don’t be stubborn.”
Jiang Junlin sat up and stared coldly at him.
Niki wasn’t Ji Chi and couldn’t withstand his sharp gaze. Though he felt sowhat uneasy, he continued, “When our master loses control, even Third Master can’t stop him. And now, he’s in a very high position. No one can restrain him. If you don’t eat, he’ll give you an intravenous nutrient solution. You’re not truly seeking death, so why make it hard on yourself? If your stomach is damaged, you’ll suffer!”
Niki spoke earnestly, but Jiang Junlin remained indifferent. Niki had no choice but to leave.
Global Sports Center.
When Gu Ci arrived, it was already 7 o’clock, and Lu Zhiyuan was sowhat surprised to hear Li Jiang’s report. Why was she coming to Global at night? Li Jiang was equally puzzled.
In these past few days, Lu Zhiyuan had been well taken care of. Lu Ze practically visited him every day, wishing he would return to the old house to recuperate. Lu Zhiyuan couldn’t get out of bed yet, but he could move around a bit, and the pain had subsided thanks to a new bone-healing drug at the Central Hospital.
“My brother has gone missing, and I can’t find him,” Gu Ci got straight to the point and asked Lu Zhiyuan, “Third Master, can you help find him?”
Lu Zhiyuan glanced at Li Jiang. “Jiang Junlin is missing?”
Li Jiang said, “1 don’t know. We’re not close to Mr. Jiang either. Miss Gu, perhaps Mr. Jiang is on a business trip abroad and has no signal. You should be able to contact him in a few days.”
“No, he and I have been texting all along. But I requested video calls and phone calls, and he refused them all. He’s being controlled by soone, and his phone is in soone else’s hands. He’s gone missing, and even his bodyguards are out of contact,” Gu Ci said. “The last ti I saw him was on the night before New Year’s Eve. Since then, we’ve only been in touch via text ssages. Third Master, I’m not familiar with Europe. Can you help find him?”
“Li Jiang, go ask Ji Chi,” Lu Zhiyuan said in a calm tone.
“Yes!” Li Jiang left the room.
“Gu Ci, I’m not close to Jiang Junlin. While Hualan Bank and the Lu Corporation have business dealings, others manage it. This trip to Europe is primarily for a competition. During this ti, there have been issues with Black Hawk, and he’s been opposing us at every turn. Both Rong Li and Ji Chi have been handling it, and I’ve given them full authority. Jiang Junlin has been supporting Chen Rushi in entering the underworld, as he’s Black Hawk’s enemy. Even if Rong Li decides to take action, Ji Chi has a deep connection with him and won’t harm him. Maybe he’s genuinely on a business trip and can’t be reached montarily,” Lu Zhiyuan almost let out a caring remark but managed to maintain a cold deanor.
“You… haven’t really thought about killing him?” Gu Ci asked.
Lu Zhiyuan’s expression remained calm as water. “I have. He was lucky not to die.”
Gu Ci fell silent.
“Don’t look at like that!” Lu Zhiyuan’s voice turned slightly cold. “He has tried to kill too, but I was fortunate not to die.”
She finally understood why Lu Zhiyuan and his brother always seed to be at odds.
Li Jiang returned and said, “Third Master, Miss Gu, Ji Chi confird that Jiang Junlin is indeed missing. He’s also searching for him, and he’ll notify us as soon as there’s any news.”
“Thank you!” Gu Ci nodded and said, “Then I’ll take my leave.”
She hurriedly departed without lingering. Lu Zhiyuan watched her retreating figure with deep and calm eyes. Her attitude towards him and the Third Young Master was truly worlds apart.
Towards the Third Young Master, she was affectionate, gentle, and utterly submissive, treating him delicately, as if he were the most precious porcelain, afraid of any harm coming to him. But when she ca to find him and inquired about Jiang Junlin’s whereabouts without success, she left in haste, without a word of greeting or concern about his injuries.
Li Jiang said, “Third Master, Miss Gu is really…”
The words “heartless” were about to slip out, but when Li Jiang caught the look in the Third Master’s eyes, he felt a chill run down his spine and restrained himself.
Lu Zhiyuan asked, “What did Ji Chi say?”
Li Jiang replied, “He truly said that Jiang Junlin is missing.”
“In this tiny corner of Europe, apart from Ji Chi, who has the ability to make Jiang Junlin disappear without a trace?” Lu Zhiyuan sneered. “He’s just trying to deceive you with those words.”
“Could it be… Ji Chi killed Jiang Junlin?” Li Jiang gasped, “Then won’t you and Miss Gu beco enemies?”
Lu Zhiyuan looked at Li Jiang with a subtle expression. Ji Chi was a few years younger than Li Jiang but already a sharp and skilled person. Li Jiang, on the other hand, seed to lack insight.
“Third Master, did I say sothing wrong?”
“Quiet!”
Li Jiang closed his mouth silently. After a mont of silence, Lu Zhiyuan spoke softly, “Tell Ji Chi not to go too far.”
“What do you an?”
Lu Zhiyuan sounded sowhat impatient. “Just convey my exact words to Ji Chi.”
“Yes,” Li Jiang thought to himself, Third Master seed a bit irritable tonight. Was it because Miss Gu doesn’t care about him? Well, she only cares about Third Young Master, but then again, you’re the one playing Third Young Master, so don’t be jealous..
