Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After returning to the bed, Lin Yi patted Ji Qingyans b.u.t.t. The latter scooted against the side, making way for Lin Yi. She had no intention of getting out of bed.

Lin Yi went back to sleep, and the two of them woke up at around nine in the morning.

Air!

Lin Yi was just about to get out of bed when he heard Ji Qingyan scream, startling him.

Whats wrong? Why are you so shocked?

Ji Qingyan held her phone in her hand. Her hair was disheveled and her eyes were filled with confusion.

Auntie asked me to go shopping today.

So? Why are you making a fuss?

But she sent it to me at eight. I didnt get up until after nine. Shell think Im a lazy sleeper. Im really not leaving a good impression on her.

Lin Yi,

He originally thought that something big had happened, but he did not expect this to be so trivial.

Even if there was anything to worry about, it was none of Ji Qingyans concern.

It was Liang Ruoxu who should be more worried.

Alright, dont be so sensitive. Youre making it seem like our family is related to the royal family. We dont have so many rules.

Ji Qingyan pursed her lips. That wont do. I have to explain this matter clearly and say that I slept in because of you. I only went to bed after midnight, so you have to take the blame for this.

Alright, alright, alright. Ill shoulder it. Lin Yi didnt know whether to laugh or cry.

After agreeing, Ji Qingyan replied to Qin Yingyue and agreed to meet at the entrance of Dooramall at 11 for a meal.

After packing up, the two of them took a helicopter back to Doora.

Looking at the magnificent island that belonged to her from the sky, Ji Qingyan could not relax.

When she retired in the future, she could retire with Lin Yi.

Moreover, she could come here when she was on vacation. Just thinking about the day made Ji Qingyan start to look forward to it.

Like Ji Qingyan, Lin Yi was also admiring the islands scenery.

However, he did not know that his old rival, Jeffrey, was in the same area as him.

On Palm Island, in an inconspicuous villa.

After what happened last night, Jeffrey immediately moved away from Island 041.

His intuition was telling him that the person spying on Schubert might already know something.

Even though the other party might not be targeting him, he still had to be careful!

Because the other party was a Huaxian!

His three subordinates had all mysteriously disappeared without a trace. Among them, Jimmy and Pauls disappearances were related to the Central Guards Brigade from Huaxia!

The remaining Eliza disappeared while carrying out a mission in Sunrise Land.

In a sense, the Central Guards Brigade in Huaxia and the Mitsui family in Sunrise Land were the masterminds behind this matter!

And the person who followed Schubert was a Huaxian woman.

For these reasons, Jeffrey immediately chose to leave Island 041 and come to Palm Island, which was better suited for him to hide in.

In addition, Jeffrey also told Schubert to play a trick of his own because he did not want to let that woman off easily!

From this, it could be seen how scheming Jeffrey was!

Chief, weve got some information on her, but its very limited.

While Jeffrey was thinking about these things, one of his men came back to report.

Tell me. Jeffrey was not angry. When he spoke, his face was gloomy.

We only know that her name is Jessica. Shes Huaxian-Meiguon. Her parents work in Huaxia, but we dont know what she does. This is her photo. From the way she dresses, her family background should be quite good. This is her photo.

Jeffrey showed no emotion as his man handed over the photo.

And, is this all we got?

Yes, thats all.

Jeffreys expression darkened as he looked at Ning Ches photo.

Although he did not find any further details, this was very important information.

With the intelligence capabilities of his subordinates, in just one night, they could thoroughly investigate a persons background.

But now, they had only managed to dig up this tiny bit of information. This was enough to prove that her ident.i.ty had been kept a secret!

In a country like Huaxia, ordinary people did not receive such special treatment.

Jeffrey thought to himself.

Unless he was wrong, this woman was very likely a member of the Central Guards Brigade!

However, it didnt matter. No matter what her true ident.i.ty was or what her goal was, as long as she was killed, this matter would be dealt with.

Inform Schubert to make an appointment with this woman. I want this woman disposed of.

Well do it now.

Ill go with you guys this time, Jeffrey said.

This womans ident.i.ty is extraordinary. Im afraid an accident will happen if you guys do it alone.

Although Schubert showed deference to Jeffrey, the latter had not yet fully a.s.sumed the dominant position.

In his heart, he hoped that this auction would be held successfully. Only then would he have the capital to make a comeback.

Therefore, there could not be any mistakes in this matter!

If he realized that something was wrong, he could retreat in time. If he only let these ordinary subordinates go over, there was a high chance that an accident would happen.

He had to personally handle this matter!

In less than an hour, the helicopter landed on the tarmac of the Sailboat Hotel. Then, Ji Qingyan and Lin Yi drove to Dooramall to meet Qin Yingyue.

Auntie must be anxious from waiting. Ji Qingyan held Qin Yingyues arm apologetically. I slept too late yesterday, so I didnt wake up in the morning and didnt see your message in time.

Its alright. You youngsters wake up late, unlike us, Qin Yingyue said with a smile. I had nothing to do, so I thought of inviting you out to shop and buy some clothes. Help me pick out some stuff. It will definitely be better than the anything I choose.

At the thought of what happened yesterday, Ji Qingyan felt both awkward and shy.

Aiya, 1 was just joking yesterday. Auntie, dont laugh at me.

Alright, alright, alright. I wont say anymore.

Qin Yingyue smiled contentedly. Its noon now. Lets go have a meal and then go shopping in the afternoon.

After saying that, Qin Yingyue looked at Lin Yi. Dont come shopping with us. Otherwise, we wont feel comfortable browsing.

How can I do that? I still have to carry the bags.

Aiya, 1 dont need you to come with us today. Since you dont want to come shopping, Ill give you an afternoon off.

Its just as Auntie said. We wont feel comfortable if you look at us when we are trying things on.

Alright, Ill take care of myself.

Qin Yingyue stood at the side and could not help but snicker in her heart. They had really fooled this silly girl.

Led by the light music, the three of them arrived at a nearby three-star Michelin restaurant.

Their main specialties were Middle Eastern dishes from the local region.

Regardless of whether the taste suited them, since they were now here, they naturally had to experience it.

After yesterdays dinner, the atmosphere at the meal today was much better.

Due to Ji Qingyans tireless efforts, the two of them seemed to have gotten closer.

During the meal, while Ji Qingyan went to the bathroom, Qin Yingyue looked at Lin Yi and said,

This auction was jointly organized by the Fuseby Auction House and a businessman named Jeffrey..
