Chapter 100: Smuggling

Yucheng is much safer than Jiangcheng, with a wider class gap and less internal unrest.

LiShuang fell asleep by the window with his fists against his temples.

ShenJi suddenly realized that her heart had been quiet for a while. He turned his head to see her sleeping face scanned by light and shadow again and again. He raised his head and gently supported her head with his palm, then moved it little by little to rest on his shoulder, with a smile on his lips.

BaJie was too lazy to complain: [Master, ShenJi is secretly looking at you again.]

"Shh." ShenJi whispered.

[!] BaJie was shocked: [Is he also the roundworm in my stomach? ]

[No, I don't have a stomach.]

[Huh! I scared myself.]

ShenJi: "..."

Stupid Tongzi.

Where is this thing, LiShuang?

Will it affect IQ in the brain?

Heading west, the residence is temporarily set in a house originally owned by the Jing family.

As soon as the car stopped, LiShuang nodded and opened her eyes sleepily.

"Arrive?"

ShenJi ruffled her hair: "Were you exhausted last night?"

LiShuang: "…"

I kicked the side of his foot and said, "Shut up, there's a kid in the car."

"..." BaiZe remained silent because he had no right to speak.

Yuelan Bay is full of single-family two-story villas, which have been cleaned, but there are no servants.

ShenJi walked in with her.

"The others will be here before tonight, so you can get some rest."

LiShuang was weighed down with worries. She just took a short nap in the car and had several dreams.

She looked up at ShenJi.

"Do you know ShenYuci's driver? Or rather, his confidant."

ShenJi nodded with some impression.

"What's wrong?"

LiShuang: "I've been so busy lately that I forgot about this."

"The person who has been planning with LiWanwan should be the one who often drives ShenYuci and always keeps him by his side."

ShenJi nodded: "I'll ask someone to check it out."

LiShuang really needed to have a good rest. Anyway, she was not needed in understanding Yucheng, so she might as well go back to her room and have a good rest.

I guess I've been under too much pressure recently.

A few days later, LiShuang dreamed of the ship that carried the nightmare again.

ShenYuci stood at the end of the corridor, leaning on his crutches and staring at her, a strange smile on his face, his echoing voice circling in the corridor.

"You're here."

LiShuang wanted to escape, but when she turned around, she seemed to see his remaining eyeball exploded, blood gushing out, and even the carpet under her feet was wet.

All blood.

"Don't want..."

She seemed to be imprisoned in place by something, with cold fingers resting on her neck, which was covered with goose bumps.

ShenYuci complained softly in her ear.

"You lied to me again? This time I will not only chop off your limbs, but I will also make you stay with me forever."

As soon as the words fell, the sharp blade cut through the skin, the flesh split open, and warm blood spurted out. Every sense was so clear and obvious.

"Don't want!"

LiShuang sat up suddenly in the dark.

It was the bed where she slept, but the lights were not on and the room was a little dim. She exhaled heavily and raised her hand to wipe the cold sweat from her forehead.

He reached out to turn on the light: "Oh my god, how long have I slept? It's already so dark..."

"A long, long time." A cold voice sounded at the end of the bed.

LiShuang looked at the man with a tingling scalp. From his figure and voice, she would not be mistaken.

"ShenJi? When did you stand here?"

In the darkness, LiShuang seemed to see the cold light in ShenJi's eyes, staring straight at her.

LiShuang quickly pressed the light switch, cold sweat oozing from her back. Seeing him approaching step by step, she moved back to the bedside.

"ShenJi, what's the situation in Yucheng? Have you found LiWanwan?"

ShenJi didn't answer her. He just bent down, smiled sinisterly, and grabbed her neck fiercely.

"You are just a plaything. How dare you order me to do something? I have been acting with you for so long. Shouldn't I be content?"

LiShuang was caught off guard and suddenly couldn't breathe.

She dug into his fingers hard but couldn't move them at all, and she squeezed out a breath.

"Silence..."

She fumbled around with her hands for something to protect herself, and felt a cold pistol under her pillow.

BaJie: [Master, shoot! Survive! ]

LiShuang was stunned.

She put the muzzle of the gun against ShenJing's chest and pulled the trigger without hesitation. The chilling sound of gunfire filled the room.

ShenJi held her trembling hand: "No one will love you, you only believe in yourself..."

When LiShuang saw the blood on her wrist, her heart sank.

The woman in the floral dress in my memory looked back and complained, "You only believe what he said..."

The woman's disappointment hurt LiShuang.

"I don't..."

The man in front of the bed tightly grasped LiShuang's hand. The sunset cast a thick ink-like color on the white school uniform. The man's eyes were red and he uttered the last words with a breath stuck in his throat.

"You said something like that... Do you believe her?... I really raised you in vain..."

LiShuang's tears wet both cheeks without her knowing when.

"I don't..."

"I really didn't..."

"Shuangshuang?"

"LiShuang?"

"Wife?"

[Hmm?] BaJie: [Why are you bringing in private goods?]

ShenJi frowned: "Li puppy!"

Her consciousness was suddenly pulled back, and when LiShuang opened her eyes she saw that familiar face. She quickly sat up and put her hand on his chest.

ShenJi looked down at her hand, his broad palm tightly wrapped around her fist.

LiShuang was brought into his arms. She felt the infectious warmth and the strong beating of her heart. She slowly curled up her fingers that were making the gun shape.

She woke up, and this time it was not a dream.

ShenJi kissed the hair on the side of her ear, rubbed the hair on the back of her head, and spoke cautiously.

"Having a nightmare?"

LiShuang swallowed her saliva and felt extremely anxious even after waking up from the dream.

She closed her eyes. Because of two sentences, she lost the two closest people in her life. She was like a star doomed to fail...

Choking and whispering: "Don't believe what I say..."

"I always believe in my own thoughts…"

And she would still shoot him when she couldn't differentiate between reality and dreams.

[I'm sorry, I'm really a very selfish person. ]

BaJie felt wronged: [...Master, you don't believe me either? ]

LiShuang: [You are not a human.]

BaJie: [Oh.]

ShenJi rubbed the back of her hand with the tips of his fist and whispered softly in her ear.

"You don't have to trust anyone."

"I will follow you and I will believe in you."

The gentle tone seemed to want to transfer all the strength to her.

LiShuang missed home, her nose felt sore, and her lightly closed eyelashes trembled.

"What if, one day, I'm wrong?"

ShenJi felt her slight trembling, gently pinched the back of her neck, and hugged her tighter.

"If you're right, I'll back you up."

"If you are wrong, I am in front as the striker."

LiShuang sniffed lightly, but didn't let the tears fall. She gently pushed away ShenJi's embrace and held her forehead to wipe away the cold sweat that seeped out of her dream.

"By the way, have you found ShenYuci's driver?"

ShenJi nodded: "Yes, his name is Zhong Wen."

"I started working for the Shen family when I was a teenager. It's been more than ten years. I can't find out what happened more than ten years ago."

LiShuang pursed her lips.

"Have someone send an anonymous message to Shen Guang, providing some information, saying that there is something fishy about Zhong Wen, and that ShenYuci's death is related to him. During this sensitive period, Shen Guang would rather kill someone by mistake than let him go."

"Let them handle this kind of house cleaning themselves."

BaJie: [There is something I don't know whether I should say or not. ]
