Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The child had grown up to this age without milk powder and looked quite healthy. There should not be any problems. Du Yue muttered in her heart and continued to eat. He Xing only rested at home for one night. The next day, after breakfast, he rushed out again. The results of the test drive were not bad.
There were some data that needed to be sorted out and some details that needed to be adjusted. Even if they could not leave immediately, they could leave sooner or later. The car’s functions had to be as perfect as possible.
Xia Ju did not have much to do. She just stayed at home with Du Yue, eating snacks and watching TV shows. The two of them lived a happy life. Happy days were always short-lived. Two days later, the man who had found Xia Ju and asked for the medicine came again. When she heard the knock on the door, Du Yue quickly put everything in the living room into her s.p.a.ce before opening the door for him. The moment the door opened, Du Yue saw the man outside smiling happily. She knew that the results of the test must be good.
She guessed right. The next second, the man said, “Miss Xia Ju, the effect of this medicine is very good. Today, 1 specially came to invite you to come with me and explain this medicine to us in detail.”
Before the man came, Du Yue and Xia Ju had already discussed countermeasures, so after hearing the man’s invitation, Xia Ju was not surprised at all and readily nodded and agreed. Xia Ju took the remaining three Snowy Cold Fruits and left with the man. Before leaving, Xia Ju did not forget to turn around and remind Du Yue, “Close the door when you’re alone at home. Don’t open the door to strangers. I’ll be back soon.”
Du Yue smiled when she heard that. Did Xia Ju treat her like a child? However, even if Xia Ju did not say anything, Du Yue would not open the door for strangers.
Du Yue nodded seriously. “Don’t worry, I won’t open the door for strangers. 1’11 wait for you to come back.”
Du Yue stood at the door and watched Xia Ju and the man leave. Only when their figures disappeared from her sight did Du Yue prepare to close the door. However, just as she was about to close the door, a foot suddenly reached out and blocked the door that was about to close. Du Yue’s eyes darkened as she looked at the foot blocking the door. The person was wearing a pair of army-green leather boots, and it was obvious that it was a man.
Du Yue looked up and saw the man wearing an army green short-sleeved shirt that revealed his strong arms. The man’s facial features were defined, and his skin was a healthy wheat color. He stood there with a deep gaze.
Before Du Yue could speak, the man said, “You must be Du Yue. Come with me. Chief Mu has invited you.”
“I don’t know Chief Mu.”
“You don’t need to know him. Just follow me.”
Du Yue’s eyes darkened. “What if 1 don’t go with you?”
Hearing this, the man looked impatient. He reached for his waist, pulled out a gun, and pointed it at Du Yue. “Chief Mu said that whether you’re alive or dead, we must bring you back. If you don’t cooperate, I can only bring him back a corpse.”
Du Yue curled her lips into a faint smile. “According to what you said, it’s definitely impossible for me not to go, huh?”
“Yes.”
“Then wait a moment. 1’11 go back to my room to change my clothes.”
“Hurry up.”
The man said as he retracted his foot. Before Du Yue closed the door, the man spoke again, “I’ll give you ten minutes. Don’t try to play any tricks. It’s not difficult for me to open your door.”
Du Yue smiled and nodded at him. “It won’t take more than ten minutes.”
When the man heard this, his eyebrows relaxed a little, but he did not say anything. Du Yue closed the door and turned to walk inside. At home, Du Yue wore pajamas as they were convenient and comfortable. However, when she thought of the man’s harsh words just now, Du Yue took out a khaki combat uniform from her s.p.a.ce and put it on without thinking. She also put on her boots.
In less than a minute, Du Yue had changed her clothes. Then, Du Yue took less than two minutes to put everything in the house into the s.p.a.ce, leaving only the most basic daily necessities in it. There were not many of these daily necessities, and they would not arouse any suspicion. After hesitating for a while, Du Yue used a small knife to carve the word ‘Mu’ where the sofa was originally placed. The color of the wall was dark to begin with. Du Yue’s carving was not flamboyant, and the marks were not deep. Even if someone accidentally saw it, they would not suspect anything.
Du Yue stood at the door and looked around. After confirming that everything in the house was fine, she reached out and pushed the door open. The man waiting outside saw Du Yue open the door, and a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes. This woman was really punctual! She was given ten minutes, but in less than five minutes, she walked out..
