In the car that drove away.
Liu Guang’s gaze swept past Lind Jones but he didn’t say anything. He reached out to Feng Yun. “Phone.”
Feng Yun looked up at him and did not resist. He handed the phone to him.
He was afraid that he would leak his whereabouts.
He had long expected Liu Guang to do this.
“Mr. Liu, who was that just now? Could it be your lover from the past? I see that the two of you are quite different in age. Mr. Liu is so lucky!” Lind Jones was excited.
Liu Guang looked unhappy, “You don’t have to worry about that.”
“Speaking of which, I didn’t know that Jones was a kind person who actually interfered in other people’s business.”
“Oh, Mr. Liu is talking about what I said to Teacher Hu just now, right?”
“Mr. Liu also knows that I’ve been teaching at Boyu High School for three years.”
“Three years. You will even have feelings for a pet in three years, let alone a group of children.”
“In the past three years, in order to pretend to be more convincing, I’ve been very responsible. I’m the form teacher in the eyes of the students.”
“Now that I’ve left, Teacher Hu is their form teacher. Although the college entrance examination has ended, there are still many things that need the form teacher to step in later on. I naturally don’t want Teacher Hu to be involved in danger. Otherwise, there won’t be anyone to guide the brats I raise when they fill in the college entrance examination choice.”
He behaved like a responsible former form teacher.
Of course, the premise was to ignore the nonchalance in his tone and the interest and strangeness in his eyes when he said these words.
He did not look like a responsible form teacher at all.
Liu Guang naturally didn’t believe him.
Lind Jones also knew that he didn’t believe him, but he didn’t seem to care.
He was simply saying whatever he wanted.
“Then you’re really a responsible teacher! If you’re really that concerned, why don’t you stay in school and teach for the rest of your life? Anyway, most of your power has been s.n.a.t.c.hed away now,” Liu Yu said strangely.
He thought that he could anger Lind Jones, but unexpectedly, Lind Jones looked very interested in his suggestion and seemed to be thinking seriously. “Young Mr. Liu Yu, this suggestion is good. I can consider it.”
Seeing him like this, Liu Yu sneered and ignored him.
Lind Jones treated it as a joke. He didn’t take Liu Yu’s att.i.tude to heart.
He looked out of the car window. “Mr. Liu, where are we going? Since the other party let us go, I don’t think we have to run like street rats, right?”
He made it sound like he wasn’t among those “street rats”.
He was so confident and did not feel ashamed at all.
Most importantly, he didn’t seem to hate the other party at all.
Realizing this, Liu Guang looked at him twice.
“It doesn’t seem to be your business where we go. You’re not my subordinate, and I don’t have the obligation to always take care of you. After we leave Cloud City, we’ll part ways.”
“That’s not what you said. The conditions we agreed on back then were that Mr. Liu would guarantee my safety when I’m in your country. Now that we’re going separate ways, aren’t you putting me in danger?”
“Although this is a little boosting others’ morale and lowering my own, I don’t think I can escape the enemy’s pursuit and return to the country in my current state. I’m not like Mr. Liu, who has bargaining chips that can negotiate with the other party. Once I separate from Mr. Liu, won’t I only die?”
“Besides, I have almost lost all the power of the Jones Family now. I’m so seriously injured that I need a wheelchair to move around. Even if I return to the country successfully, won’t I still die?”
“So, I still have to rely on Mr. Liu to take care of me for a while.”
“My trusted subordinates all know that I’m with Mr. Liu now. If Mr. Liu doesn’t care about my life according to the agreement back then, it’s fine if I’m fine. If anything happens to me, Mr. Liu will have another great enemy, the Jones Family…”
His expression darkened, and Liu Guang interrupted him unhappily, “Aren’t you afraid that you won’t have a place to stay anymore when you go back since the power of the Jones Family will be in someone else’s hands?”
“Of course. I’ve been managing the Jones Family for almost nine years. I still have this ability. When I recover and return, I’ll still have the final say in the Jones Family.”
He said it with extreme confidence that Liu Guang actually didn’t doubt his words.
After all, no one would have thought that the head of the Jones Family, who had been in charge of the family for nearly nine years, would give up the power to control the family.
***
At a cafe in Cloud City.
Yan Jinyu and Yin Jiujin chose a seat by the window and sat down. Hu Chengcheng sat opposite them.
They had just come from the Feng Family and said that they wanted to talk in private.
Even after driving for half an hour to this cafe, Hu Chengcheng had yet to recover from her shock.
She was too puzzled.
Moreover, she even saw Yan Jinyu holding a gun in her hand.
It was a lie to say that she had seen quite a bit of the world and was not so timid.
She was smart and her studies progressed quickly. She went to the Imperial Capital University to study her master’s and doctor’s degree after her undergraduate studies. She taught at Boyu High School as soon as she graduated. Boyu High School was an elite school, so she had indeed seen many rich people.
However, that was all.
This was the first time she had seen a real gun.
The waiter brought over three cups of coffee. Hu Chengcheng stirred the coffee and said hesitantly, “Yan Jinyu, do you have anything to ask me?”
“Teacher Hu, don’t be nervous. It’s not anything important. I saw you outside the Feng Family’s mansion and you saw my enemy. I just wanted to sit down and talk to you so that you wouldn’t think too much.”
Hearing her words, Hu Chengcheng’s heart warmed.
Indeed, after seeing such a scene, she would definitely let her imagination run wild when she returned. Especially since Mr. Liu, whom she had been looking for years, actually knew Yan Jinyu. They also seemed to be at odds.
She was indeed very considerate. As her fan, she did not regret having mustered up the courage to make up so much story just now.
She had a feeling that if she hadn’t said those words or showed that she didn’t have a good relations.h.i.+p with Yan Jinyu, Mr. Liu would probably have done something else.
Other things that were disadvantageous to Yan Jinyu.
She really didn’t expect Mr. Liu to become so cold.
He was no longer the kind and gentlemanly person she remembered.
Then, was it Mr. Liu or that kind gentleman?
It was undeniable that she indeed owed Mr. Liu a favor. She had not seen any traces of Mr. Liu all these years, and she had indeed asked someone to find out. Because of this, she did not even care about getting married.
Or rather, she had a different kind of feeling for that kind gentleman, so she could not care about others.
However, she could not find that feeling when she saw him again today.
She liked the kind gentleman in her memory, not the Mr. Liu she saw today, who was completely different from what she knew.
Thinking about it carefully, she didn’t even know who Mr. Liu was and what he did.
For someone she didn’t know at all, what she saw was what he wanted her to see. Hence, could the word “like” be used here?
She was lost.
“Student Yan Jinyu, don’t worry. I know what to say and what not to say. I’ll pretend that I didn’t see what happened today. Don’t worry, I won’t say anything.”
Yan Jinyu smiled, “Let’s not talk about that for now. It’s good that Teacher Hu isn’t affected. I want to ask Teacher Hu, do you know Liu Guang?”
“Of course, if it’s not convenient for Teacher Hu to tell me, you can pretend that I didn’t ask.”
“There’s nothing inconvenient about that. If you want to know anything, just ask. I’ll tell you whatever I can.” If others asked her, she might not say much, but Yan Jinyu…
Who asked her to still like Yan Jinyu even after seeing her different side?
No matter who Yan Jinyu was, she believed that she was the cute and obedient Yan Jinyu.
What Hu Chengcheng didn’t know was that she already had double standards now.
She didn’t think so when she saw Liu Guang’s different side.
“I’ve known Mr. Liu for a long time. It was probably when I was seven years old.”
“In North City. You’ve seen how my family treats me. Yan Jinyu…” At this point, Hu Chengcheng smiled bitterly. “When I was young and went to school, no one would send me or pick me up.”
“Fortunately, the school is in our neighborhood, so it’s not far. Usually, there won’t be any danger. It’s just that one day, I went home late when I finished school as it was my turn for duties. Two people suddenly rushed out and wanted to abduct me on my way home. It was Mr. Liu who pa.s.sed by and saved me.”
Would Liu Guang save her?
Liu Guang was ruthless. He didn’t even blink when countless innocent children died because of him.
In the early years on Ghost Slaughter Island, the dead were all thrown to one place. It was considered the ma.s.s grave on Ghost Slaughter Island where corpses were everywhere.
And the one who caused all this was Liu Guang.
Would such a Liu Guang act bravely to save a child who was about to be abducted?
Anyway, Yan Jinyu didn’t believe that.
“He saved you, so you were in contact with him all these years?”
Hu Chengcheng shook her head. “Not really.”
“I was only seven years old back then. Other than remembering what the person who saved me looked like, there was nothing else. I came to Cloud City to go to university and happened to meet the injured Mr. Liu. I recognized him and took care of him for a while before slowly getting familiar with him.”
“That was also when I found out about Mr. Liu’s name.”
“In that case, since you’ve taken care of the injured him, it should be considered as returning the favor of him saving you.”
Hu Chengcheng had never told anyone about these things all these years. It was rare to meet someone she was willing to talk to, so she said more.
“In theory, that’s true, but people will always have some feelings after interacting with each other for a long time. It doesn’t mean that once you’ve repaid the favor, you won’t have anything to do with each other anymore.”
“After that, Mr. Liu left, but he still came to Cloud City to visit me occasionally. I privately thought that we were already friends.”
“I didn’t expect Mr. Liu to suddenly disappear three years ago. I couldn’t contact him no matter what. When I saw him again, he was already like that today.”
She smiled bitterly. “He’s completely different from the Mr. Liu in my memory.”
Yan Jinyu wanted to say that of course, it was different. His base had been destroyed by her, and his life was barely saved. Now, he only wanted to kill her and then think of a way to develop his power. How could he still be in the mood to tease a little girl?
Yes, a little girl.
Wasn’t Hu Chengcheng a little girl to Liu Guang?
“People change.”
“Teacher Hu, can you tell me how he saved you from the criminals when you were seven years old?”
She still believed that Liu Guang wasn’t the kind of person who would help when he saw injustice. Since he wasn’t, it was best to clarify this matter and not let her owe Liu Guang a favor for no reason.
She quite liked Hu Chengcheng, so she had to interfere in this matter.
Others could not sense it, but only she knew.
She actually felt a maternal love from Hu Chengcheng that she had never felt from Fu Ya.
Even though Hu Chengcheng was clearly an unmarried woman and she was not much older than her.
Just now, Hu Chengcheng clearly valued Liu Guang very much, but she chose to side with her immediately between her and Liu Guang.
She was still very touched by that.
