Chapter 90 - 78-cliche (2)
However, what puzzled song qingxiao was why such a busy man, who had investments and a company, and had to do charity at the same time, often appeared in newspapers and magazines for interviews, would invite such a large group of people to go to the sea to an Island.
She thought of the investment that the woman had mentioned.
The woman had mentioned that this was a ‘journey of harvest’.
Therefore, it could be inferred that there might be some important investment or business on the island that was important to Mr. Zhou. It was already the time for the harvest, which prompted Mr. Zhou to make this trip to the island.
With so many bodyguards, scholars, and many laborers who looked like they were transporting things, there must be something important on the island.
After understanding this, song Qing asked tentatively,”
“Mr. Zhou seems to place a lot of importance on this trip.”
“That’s for sure,”
The woman laughed.
after all, I’ve studied it for more than ten years …
She blurted out, but when she realized that she had said the wrong thing, she quickly swallowed the remaining half of the sentence.
The woman slowly stood up. When she was lying on the side of the ship, her body was enchanting. Her body was soft and flexible as if she had no bones. Now that she stood up, she looked like a completely different person.
Perhaps sensing that song qingxiao was trying to trick her, she turned around with a cold look in her eyes.
The lights on the deck couldn’t reach where she was standing, and only a faint light came through. Half of her face was in the light, while the other half was hidden in the darkness. Her eyes were black and blue, probably because of the sea. When she stared at people, she gave them a lot of pressure, making them a little breathless.
Song qingxiao could tell from her expression that she was angry.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense. The woman pursed her lips and did not speak. Suddenly, a man’s voice was heard.
“Xue Li?”
The woman’s expression changed, and she turned her head subconsciously. Song qingxiao did the same. She turned her head to the source of the voice and saw Mr. Zhou, who had changed his clothes and was surrounded by the crowd during the day. He was standing about seven or eight meters away, smiling in the direction of the two.
“I’ve been looking for you for half a day, and you’re hiding here.”
The two women didn’t notice when he arrived.
Song qingxiao was focused on getting information out of the woman. She was afraid that she would make the woman alert if she said something wrong. She did not pay attention to the behavior around her because she could not get any useful information.
Mr. Zhou did not make a sound when he walked. The deck was so noisy that he was almost in front of song qingxiao. If he did not take the initiative to greet the woman, song qingxiao would not have noticed that he was so close.
“Mr. Zhou,”
The woman called Shirley smiled and walked toward Mr. Zhou. Her temperament quickly changed from cold to respectful.
“Why did you come out?”
“I heard the commotion outside, so I came out to take a look.”
Shirley walked to his side and held his arm. Mr. Zhou didn’t struggle and just asked with a smile,”
“What are you saying? It’s rare to see you get along so well with someone.”
As he spoke, his eyes fell on song qingxiao. There was some suspicion and suspicion in his eyes, as well as a little malice.
Song Qingxin’s heart tightened. He remembered what he had said during the day when he warned the trial-takers to attack each other. He had said that he would throw disobedient people into the sea. He was the one who set the standards for disobedience.
The ship was his territory, and all the big men with guns were his men. If Mr. Zhou had the intention to kill her, song qingxiao would have a hard time fighting him.
Even with her current strength, she was not afraid of a few ordinary people, but it seemed that the people around Mr. Zhou on the ship were all trained. Shirley alone should be good at fighting.
Not to mention that there were a few other participants with different intentions on the ship. If she offended Mr. Zhou, these people would definitely think of ways to get her, a competitor, out of the game in advance.
Song qingxiao wasn’t afraid if they were on the island or close to the island, but according to the woman, it should be a long journey from here to the island. When she mentioned the noise on the boat, she had said that Mr. Zhou had studied the voyage and they were nearly three days away from the island.
Mr. Zhou’s gaze was like a Thunderbolt as it fell on song qingxiao, as if he was going to look her up and down carefully..
