Chapter 718: Seeing Through Their Plans
Ming Ye’s hands were almost identical to Jiang Xuecheng’s. They were long and porcelain white, and their joints were thin and distinct. They looked just like the hands of a pianist.
However, no matter how similar they were, Ming Ye was not Jiang Xuecheng.
She would never mistake someone else for Jiang Xuecheng.
However, Su Wan was a little surprised that Ming Ye would be so frivolous. She subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand, but Ming Ye made a silent gesture at her with his other hand.
Ming Ye’s expression was very serious. His pair of bewitching emerald eyes, which could suck people in at any time, quietly looked at Su Wan.
Su Wan immediately realized the seriousness of the matter.
She was about to ask a question, but she felt that Ming Ye began to write on her hand.
Ming Ye’s finger swept across her palm. There was not the slightest hint of longing, and his handsome face was cold and gloomy.
That was probably not just a premonition. It was about to become a reality…
Su Wan was not from the local population, after all. She did not have a very good understanding of the interstellar language. She paused for a few seconds before she could understand Ming Ye’s words clearly.
Seeing that Ming Ye had confirmed her premonition, Su Wan’s heart pounded violently. Her emotions were complicated, and she became very, very nervous.
What should she do then?
Seeing that Ming Ye did not speak, Su Wan knew that there were probably spies of the G.o.d’s Palace outside. She was a little worried, so she could only use her eyes to communicate with Ming Ye.
Ming Ye looked at Su Wan indifferently and did not answer Su Wan’s question for the time being.
Because at this moment, Ming Ye was thinking about an extremely important matter.
What he could not understand the most was why the people of the G.o.d’s Palace would go through so much trouble to get off the s.h.i.+p and then capture them?
Logically speaking, wouldn’t it be better to catch them while they were on the s.h.i.+p?
Ming Ye’s intelligence was the same as that of Jiang Xuecheng. His mind was full of twists and turns, and he had almost figured out the reason in the next moment.
Unless those people were not targeting him, but the woman beside him.
The possibility of that was very high.
After all, if the high priest was looking for him, she would only need to keep him alive. No matter how cruel her methods were, it did not matter.
And even if the emperor didn’t remember Su Wan, he still seemed to have some feelings for Su Wan, so he was relatively polite.
Once Ming Ye figured this out, he was surprisingly calm. His gaze was locked on Su Wan, and his bewitching green eyes were s.h.i.+ning.
Su Wan was scared by Ming Ye’s appearance. She almost thought that Ming Ye had gone crazy and wanted to turn himself in.
What’s wrong with you?
Su Wan winked at Ming Ye, trying to make Ming Ye understand her thoughts.
But before Su Wan could think clearly, Ming Ye continued to write on her hand.
The content was very simple. He briefly explained his guess and then said that they would run away as soon as they got off the s.h.i.+p before the other party realized that they were trying to escape.
And they had to stay away from the crowd.
From the angle that they had just flown down, Ming Ye saw that not far from the track of the airport was an endless river.
If they followed the exit of the track, they would only meet more and more guards who were waiting for them. If they went in the opposite direction and jumped into the river, they would at least be able to shake off most of the guards.
It was a very wide river.
Looking down from the sky, it looked like the surface of the sea. Not far away was the forest.
Planet Lanhe was a newly developed immigrant planet. The mining industry was not developed enough, but the ecology was not bad. Many places were covered with vegetation.
Therefore, Ming Ye asked if Su Wan could swim.
Whether Su Wan could swim was very important.
If they jumped into that river, the probability of escaping would be higher. At least, the difficulty of searching would be increased.
If Su Wan could not swim, Ming Ye had to find another way out.
For example, if he and Su Wan ran in two directions, he could give Su Wan a cover, but this path was much more dangerous than the latter.
For Ming Ye, the most dangerous thing was never nature, but the human heart.
…
Ming Ye asked her if she knew how to swim?
Su Wan was not stupid. She remembered the vast river surface she had seen from high above and instantly understood Ming Ye’s meaning.
She frowned and nodded with some hesitation.
Then she added another sentence.
“But I’m not very good at it. I’m a dabbler in this area.”
Ming Ye listened indifferently and then drew a few words on Su Wan’s hand and added another question.
“Can you hold your breath underwater? How long can you hold your breath underwater?”
After Su Wan distinguished these words clearly, her expression suddenly changed, and her heart was filled with sadness.
The reason why Su Wan knew how to swim was all taught by Jiang Xuecheng. When the two of them were on their honeymoon on Wan Wan Island, Jiang Xuecheng had taught her how to hold her breath underwater.
Su Wan was not as powerful as Jiang Xuecheng, but she had learned some skills after all.
Seeing that Su Wan did not answer, Ming Ye’s emerald eyes flashed with a faint light.
He let go of Su Wan’s hand seal and asked calmly.
“Not at all?”
Su Wan shook her head and reached out her hand to Ming Ye to make a number.
Ming Ye suddenly understood. Although Su Wan’s shallow breathing technique was far from enough for him to see, it was enough to hide from the investigation.
As long as he could ensure that Su Wan’s life was not in danger, it was good enough.
Moreover…
Ming Ye glanced at Su Wan, as if he saw something deep through Su Wan.
Su Wan had Dragon’s Blood in her body. Although the dosage was not much, it was pure, so she should not die so easily.
After confirming the plan, Su Wan repeated it to Nono in Chinese to prevent others from eavesdropping.
…
Finally, with a violent rumble, ZH0714 transferred to a s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p and arrived at its destination — Planet Lanhe.
The crowd left one after another. Su Wan and Ming Ye were no exception. The two of them did not stay at the end, nor did they rush to the front.
Instead, they blended into the crowd.
Although there were not many pa.s.sengers on this s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p, it could more or less provide cover for the two of them and Nono.
Ming Ye and Su Wan went down the gangway one after the other. Su Wan pretended to be serious while holding Nono’s hand. Before the police officers rushed forward, she instantly activated Nono’s defense mechanism!
In an instant, Nono’s figure rose. The security officers suddenly realized that something was wrong!
They had originally planned to wait for Su Wan to come a little closer before they surrounded her.
They did not expect Su Wan to actually see through their plan…
Officer Li, who was in charge of capturing Su Wan, suddenly felt a headache coming on. He immediately sent people to surround her!
The rusty Nono looked old, but its attack power was quite astonis.h.i.+ng. In just a few moments, it had stunned a few guards to the ground!
Officer Li’s eyelids twitched wildly. He was so angry that he almost stomped his feet!
Wasn’t it just a man and a woman, plus a robot?!
So what if that robot had the power to attack!
He did not believe that he could not handle it!
Ming Ye dragged Su Wan and ran in the opposite direction of the track exit. Their destination was very clear, it was the wide river!
And Nono was behind Su Wan and Ming Ye, protecting them.
Seeing that she was getting closer and closer to the river, Su Wan’s eyes turned red. She knew that persistence meant victory!
