Chapter 1187 – Really, Long Time No See (1)
Dangerous?
Xu Yuning really didn’t react, and sought those two words over and over again several times before finally understanding what Dongzi meant-
In some ways, Kang Ruicheng and Musashi are extremely similar.
For example, their enemies are probably no less than anyone else.
They are on high alert whenever they step out of the house, especially when they are in the car.
Once a person is confined to a compartment, their s.p.a.ce to move around becomes very limited and they can easily be targeted from a high point outside.
If you are not careful, you risk spilling blood and giving your life away.
Just now, Xu Yuning lowered the car window like that, if someone outside was aiming at Kang Ruicheng, she was tantamount to helping the other party and pushing Kang Ruicheng to his death.
That was why Touko had warned her that her actions just now were too dangerous.
Xu Yuning admitted that it was indeed dangerous.
The most crucial thing was that she didn’t want anything to happen to Kang Ruicheng at this time.
Because of his childhood upbringing, Kang Ruicheng was more alert than the average person, even if someone aimed at him, he would react quickly.
Instead of aiming at him, he may not always get a hit, but he will spook the snake.
Once something happened on the road, Kang Rui Cheng would definitely turn back.
If Kang Ruicheng changed his mind, no matter if it was Xu Yuning or Lu Boyan and Mu Siju’s plans, they would all go down the drain.
Taking another step back, Xu Yuning wished that she could personally avenge her grandmother’s death.
Even if it wasn’t her, it would still be Lu Bo Yan or Mu Si Jue to end Kang Ruicheng’s life.
This matter, Xu Yuning did not want to bother others for the time being.
As Xu Yuning thought about it, the atmosphere in the carriage was already stiff and cold.
Of course, it’s all because of her.
It was only logical that she should take on the role of lightening the mood.
Xu Yuning looked at Kang Ruicheng and sincerely apologized, “I’m sorry, I didn’t control my emotions, it was my negligence just now.”
“It’s good that it’s okay.” Kang Ruicheng’s tone softened quite a bit as he looked at the necklace around Xu Yuning’s neck and asked, “Ah Ning, you mind this a lot, don’t you?”
“…… “Xu Yuning was like hearing the coldest joke of the century, silent for a moment, not answering but asking, “I thought my reaction was already obvious, so it’s not enough?”
“But, Aning–” Kang Ruicheng’s words changed, a touch of harshness added to his tone, “If it wasn’t for a weak heart, why would you mind so much?”
“Don’t say I’m vain, the question now is – you doubt me.” Xu Yuning was not so easily diverted, following Kang Ruicheng’s routine of questioning him, “If you believe me, why would you hang a miniature explosive|bomb around my neck? Have you ever thought about what I would do in case something happens?”
In case something happens and the bomb is not under Kang Ruicheng’s control, Xu Yuning can only die.
Mousseguy probably hated her to the bone when he realized she was undercover.
However, Mousseur didn’t do that to her.
So, with that said, Kang Ruicheng’s so-called liking and love might just be words.
Kang Ruicheng also knew that accidents could happen at any time.
However, compared to the accident, she was more afraid that Xu Yuning would be s.n.a.t.c.hed back by Mu Sijun.
This means of defense, although somewhat extreme, is the method that can best guarantee that Xu Yuning will not fall into the hands of Mu Shi Jue.
He had to do it.
Despite thinking so, Kang Ruicheng still didn’t dare to face Xu Yuning directly.
He avoided Xu Yuning’s line of sight, his movements clearly permeated with emptiness, but his voice was all cold and hard: “As long as you stay by my side all the time, as long as there aren’t any accidents at the c.o.c.ktail party, you’ll be absolutely fine, and there won’t be any accidents!”
Xu Yuning knew that Kang Ruicheng was warning her.
What he meant was that she should not go close to Lu Bo Yan and Mu Si Jue, and even more so, she should not act rashly.
Otherwise, what awaited her was a nightmare – much more than just death.
Even if she didn’t fear death and torture, for the sake of the child in her belly, tonight, she had to be cautious again and again.
What she had to know, however, was that at a time like this, she could never remain silent.
To Conrad City, silence is a form of weakness.
She must say something.
Xu Yuning bottomed out, the smile at the corner of his lips a few points colder, his voice mixed with a complex and difficult to understand emotion, “I know.”
Kang Ruicheng could hear that in addition to anger, there was also deep disappointment in Xu Yuning’s voice.
But he wasn’t going to explain, let alone change that.
After tonight, as long as Xu Yuning didn’t have any abnormalities, in the future, he would never be defensive towards her again, and she could make whatever compensation she wanted.
But definitely not before tonight.
Xu Yuning clutched the necklace pendant on her collarbone, knowing very well in her heart that it was impossible for this thing to be detached from her neck before tomorrow came, and that the threat to her life was with her like a shadow.
Kang Ruicheng has already hardened his heart, if he can’t get her, he must destroy her.
She mustn’t do anything rash.
In such a situation, if Lu Boyan and Mu Sijun were also unable to do anything, tonight, she could only retreat and find a way to transfer the collected information first.
Speaking of that information, Xu Yuning felt vaguely strange again in his heart.
Kang Ruicheng is so vigilant, knowing that she will meet Lu Bo Yan and Su Jianan couple tonight, when she went out, he surprisingly didn’t search her at all, not to mention didn’t ask her to go through any inspection equipment.
He can’t be forgetting.
What Xu Yuning was curious about now was whether Kang Ruicheng had other means, or whether he wanted to keep an eye on her at all times at the reception site?
However, whatever Kang Ruicheng was planning to do, it was useless.
You know, she was the best at keeping little things to herself, whether by hand or by machine, and as long as she didn’t want to, they couldn’t possibly find out her secrets.
The problem now was, how was she going to give this information to Su Jianan when she arrived at the reception?
She needed to get out of Kang Ruicheng’s line of sight and have a few minutes alone with Su Jianan before she could transfer the information.
But who could buy her those few minutes?
Since her grandmother’s death, Xu Yuning’s mind was only on the matter of revenge, and she rarely helped Kang Ruicheng on missions anymore.
She’s been out of blood and violence for too long, and today she’s about to find her old, fearless self in a flash.
Xu Yuning was purely lying when he said he wasn’t nervous.
She knew better than anyone else that even if she couldn’t completely get rid of Kang Ruicheng’s control today, tonight’s action was about her future fate.
She wanted to get out of the dragon’s den, she wanted to have the baby, and tonight, she had to do everything right.
She’d been through so many intense battles that she shouldn’t have much trouble improvising tonight.
The car was extremely soundproof, and at this point, there was only silence in the compartment.
Kang Ruicheng ghostly inclined his head to look at Xu Yuning, she pursed her lips and looked outside, her eyebrows slightly drooping down, but her gaze was still permeated with the sternness and vigilance that a trained person should have.
Xu Yuning looked like she was in silence, her whole person presented a state of letting go, but Kang Ruicheng knew that her inner thoughts were never as simple as the surface.
But, looking at it like that, it’s not much to look at.
Xu Yuning didn’t reveal any traces, Kang Ruicheng didn’t raise any suspicion, he looked at the road outside and calculated that it shouldn’t be far from the hotel.
Unsurprisingly, five minutes later, the black Land Rover pulled up in front of a grandly decorated hotel.
Five-star hotel, a grand and high-profile building, imposing stand in the middle of the downtown, but it is difficult to pick a very quiet location, coupled with the garden outside, this is just like a paradise in the center of the downtown area.
The lighting effects outside the hotel were obviously well-designed, with warm and bright lights that made the whole hotel flow and look grand.
The hotel adapted student saw a car stop, busy ran over to pull open the car door, made a “please” gesture to Xu Yuning inside, and said politely, “Ma’am, welcome to our hotel.”
Kang Ruicheng had already gotten out of the car from the other side of the door and walked over, signaling Xu Yuning to take his hand.
On this kind of occasion, Xu Yuning didn’t want to bother with Kang Ruicheng about what had just happened.
She glanced at Kang Ruicheng and finally took his hand.
Kang Ruicheng lowered his voice just enough so that only he and Xu Yuning could hear and asked, “Nervous?”
Xu Yuning felt that Kang Ruicheng’s question was strange, and smiled in disbelief, “What’s there to be nervous about?”
“It’s right not to be nervous.” Kang Ruicheng also smiled and said meaningfully, “There are a lot of our people at the reception, not just me, they will protect you as well.”
Xu Yuning’s heart chilled, but it was only for a second, she immediately reacted and said with a smile, “That makes me feel relieved.”
The smile at the corner of Kang Ruicheng’s lips became deeper, he turned to take Xu Yuning’s waist, and the two of them immediately presented a very intimate state, and entered the reception site together.
Five minutes later, a black sedan pulled up in front of the hotel.
The hotel manager recognized the license plate number at a glance and hurriedly greeted them, opening the car door with the waiter on one side.
Afterward, Lu Bo Yan and Su Jianan got down from the car.
The manager smiled so much that he could barely keep his mouth shut and said, “Mr. Lu, it is truly an honor for you to attend our reception! Tonight, we can fulfill any request you and Mrs. Lu have, I’ll bring you in!”
“Thanks.”
Lu Bo Yan is very gentlemanly to outsiders, but not intimate.
He walked over to Su Jianan, who almost naturally took his hand, and the two of them walked into the reception together.
Lu Bo Yan has a miniature earphone in his ear, and a rice-sized walkie-talkie is sewn on the inside of his pocket towel, and he motionlessly swept around the entire reception site, and was about to ask something when Mu Siju’s voice came out of his ear:
“Kang Ruicheng and Yunin have already arrived, and if I’m not mistaken, they should be going through the security check.”
Lu Bo Yan’s brows furrowed slightly, “The security check, isn’t it affecting Xu Yuning?”
“That’s right.” Mousse said, “That’s why I need you to come up with a plan.”
