On the ship, Tang Mingzhou was recuperating.
When the explosion occurred, he couldnt evade in time and suffered minor injuries. The flames grazed his arm, not causing severe harm. Chen Rushi, standing respectfully before him, dared not show any disrespect. Tang Mingzhous expression was extremely stern. This time, he had planned everything meticulously, intending to wait for Lu Zhiyuan to board the ship and then execute his plan. All the instructions were for Ji Chi and Rong Li to charter this passenger ship and leave Paradise Island. One of the cabins was filled with explosives, all set to go off with Lu Zhiyuan on board, ensuring their demise together.
However, a Black Hawk special agent accidentally discovered the explosives in the cabin while fighting Tang Mingzhous men. This commotion alerted the crew, and without further ado, Tang Mingzhou detonated the ship.
If the news leaked out, he couldnt kill Lu Zhiyuan, and it would be a failure. It was better to blow up the ship, especially since Ji Chi and Rong Li were on board, along with Lu Zhiyuans loved one. It was destiny.
Although this explosion wasnt part of Tang Mingzhous plan, the outcome pleased him. Fortunately, Chen Rushi had been there to assist them. Knowing that the triad figures were nearby, he arrived in several speedboats and rescued everyone.
How are they? Tang Mingzhou asked with a grim expression.
Chen Rushi replied, Gu Ci and Rong Li have gunshot wounds. Rong Lis injuries are severe, and I fear they might not survive. I gave the first aid kit to Gu Ci; shes a doctor. If she can save him, its Rong Lis lucky day. If not, then its his own fault!
Tang Mingzhou sneered and poured himself a drink. While he was in power, Chen Geng was still alive, and Chen Rushi was considered Chen Gengs heir. Chen Geng had intended for Tang Mingzhou to groom Chen Rushi as the successor to Black Hawk. However, several major families obstructed this plan, making it difficult to execute. But there were still ways. Later, Tang Mingzhou began grooming Lu Zhiyuan, who appeared out of nowhere, and Chen Rushi had some reservations about this.
Tang Mingzhou wasnt entirely sidelined. Compared to the former head of Black Hawk, he still had real power and could bypass the nine major families in many Black Hawk affairs, so he was quite authoritative.
Three years ago, Tang Mingzhou had contacted Chen Rushi, sharing a hidden network of contacts and advising Chen Rushi to remain low-key and not reveal himself too early. After Chen Rushi left the triad and Black Hawk, he wasnt willing to retire from the pinnacle of power and always sought the opportunity to make a comeback.
He wanted a chance to return to Black Hawk and take control of it. Their goals aligned.
He can do anything, even using Lu Zhiyuan, Tang Mingzhou coldly remarked. Are you sure Gu Ci is his loved one? But according to the information, they broke up five years ago. If the plan fails, Chen Rushi, you bear the consequences.
Gu Cis identity is more important than you imagine. She is not only Lu Zhiyuans loved one, but Lu Zhiyuan was willing to give up everything for her, including his career and even his life. She is also the younger sister of Jiang Junlin. Even though she works as an emergency room doctor at Southern City Hospital, she is also responsible for the triads financial sector, overseeing the financial operations of the triad. Her status and position are extraordinary. As long as shes in our hands, both Jiang Junlin and Lu Zhiyuan cant make any reckless moves. Chen Rushi didnt believe that Lu Zhiyuan and Gu Ci had broken up. If they had truly parted ways, why was the child with Gu Ci frequently in contact with Lu Zhiyuan? He believed that, due to their unique identities, they were using a cover story to secretly carry out their plans.
This time, when the incident occurred, both Lu Zhiyuan and Jiang Junlin came to Paradise Island. There has been constant searching on the sea, and they want to find a few people on the vast ocean, which is like searching for a needle in a haystack.
Leader, the most challenging part is what to do once we reach the shore. Black Hawk and the triads surveillance systems are highly advanced. They can monitor every corner of the world, as long as there are cameras. Unless we stay hidden in the dark all the time, we will eventually be discovered.
Dont worry, I have a safe place they will never think of.
Inside the cabin, Rong Li had passed out from the pain. Gu Ci took out the bullet and shrapnel and stopped the bleeding, stitching the wound. The medical supplies in the first aid kit were insufficient, so Rong Li would have to endure more suffering.
Ji Chi asked, Is he going to be okay?
No problem! Gu Ci had confidence in her medical skills. After giving Rong Li an antibiotic injection, she helped him sit aside. Gu Ci took a piece of gauze and bit down on it, then lowered her head to stitch her own wound. Her abdominal injury was significant, and without anesthesia, she had to endure it. Qin Wan looked at her in pain, wondering if Chen Rushi had intentionally provided inadequate supplies.
Gu Ci bit the gauze, enduring the excruciating pain, and quickly stitched her wound. After disinfecting and dressing it, she wrapped it up to prevent infection. Qin Wan asked, Are you okay?
Gu Ci shook her head, her face as pale as a sheet.
Chen Rushi sent someone to deliver food, consisting of bread and water. Originally, their hands were handcuffed behind their backs, but now that they were injured, the guards unlocked the handcuffs and cuffed them in front for ease of eating. The three of them quickly filled their stomachs, and Gu Ci gave Rong Li some water. She also treated Ji Chi and Qin Wans wounds; fortunately, their injuries were minor, so they were relatively fine. After everything was taken care of, Chen Rushis guards took the first aid kit away, leaving only antibiotics and fever reducers for Gu Ci. The four of them sat together, discussing their next steps.
Ji Chi said, This is a sea voyage. They will definitely look for a place to land and then decide what to do. We should seize any opportunity to escape.
Only by leaving could they hope to bring back reinforcements. If they were trapped together, there would be no hope.
Ji Chi and Gu Ci both had needles hidden on them. After disassembling them, they concealed the thin needles on their bodies. Gu Ci shook her head and said, We are unarmed, and they have guns. Its better not to try to escape. My brother and Lu Zhiyuan will definitely come to rescue us.
Unlike Ji Chi, Gu Ci had a natural trust in Jiang Junlin and Lu Zhiyuan, sincerely believing that they would come to their rescue.
He was different!
Once, 1 also had hope for someone. Even if 1 could leave, 1 foolishly waited, afraid that if I left, I would miss him. I believed in him wholeheartedly, thinking that no matter how difficult it was, he would come to find me. But later, I understood that believing in others is not as good as believing in yourself. Your life is your own, and only you can save it. You cant rely on anyone, no one can. Ji Chi looked at the dimly lit cabin, thinking of the past.
Qin Wan and Gu Ci both knew who he was talking about.
Rong Li gradually regained consciousness, and Ji Chi quickly moved closer. Rong Li, are you in pain?
I wont die! Rong Li took a deep breath, and due to the pain, he was still sweating profusely. Gu Ci, thank you.
Its nothing. Gu Ci listened to the sound of the waves, and suddenly the ship jolted. She said, There must be a hidden reef here. We should be nearing the shore.
Ji Chi and Qin Wan both sensed it.
The triad and Black Hawks surveillance systems are everywhere globally. Where can he take us? Qin Wan furrowed her brow.. Why not negotiate directly?
