“I told you that nothing good would come out of being with you every time. Look, it’s a double-cross.”
“Xiaoxiao still has the mood to complain about this? Let’s think about it and leave quickly. This ship will explode when we reach the port. Moreover, these people might even search the ship. Look at the two people just now. Aren’t they searching?”
“Then what should we do now? Swim back in the middle of the night?”
Long Xi suddenly found Shen Xiaoxiao’s words very funny. With a ‘pfft’, it almost caught the attention of the two who had gone far away.
“Xiaoxiao is really cute. We’re already on the cruise ship. How can we swim back? How about this? If you want to meddle in other people’s business, let’s go take a look. If you don’t want to meddle, let’s go back to our room.”
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at this idiot Long Xi and was speechless for a moment. How could this person have such weird thoughts? Just now, he was the one who wanted to jump out to watch the show, and now he was asking her to choose whether or not to go back?
Was there something wrong with him?
“Do you want to go to the third floor to take a look?”
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Long Xi’s appearance and did not know why, but she felt a little uneasy. It seemed that he was particularly interested in this?
“I want to go back and rest. You can go by yourself.”
Shen Xiaoxiao suddenly turned cold, causing Long Xi to be stunned. She was not going with him?
“Black eating black. Do you really not want to go and take a look?”
Seeing that Shen Xiaoxiao had really turned around and left, Long Xi immediately pulled her and asked again.
However, this time, when Long Xi touched her arm, Shen Xiaoxiao turned around and gave him a side kick. She aimed at Long Xi’s wrist and twisted it violently. The watch on Long Xi’s wrist was instantly torn off.
Long Xi did not expect Shen Xiaoxiao to suddenly attack him at this time.
Shen Xiaoxiao took Long Xi’s watch and directly clicked on the watch in front of him. Sure enough, a blue beam of light appeared. The caption on it confirmed Shen Xiaoxiao’s guess.
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Long Xi and suddenly threw the watch out of the window.
She knew it.
“If Moxing Entertainment can hire such a skilled actor like Boss Long, perhaps the next Academy Awards will be yours.”
“Xiaoxiao, you’ve misunderstood, I…”
“You knew from the beginning that this ship would sail over. You even predicted that there would be people who would take advantage of you. But the so-called ‘people who take advantage of you’, you’re the one who really wants to swallow it, right? Boss long, you really don’t have a plan? I’m just curious. You spent a day and night drifting on the sea. Is this a torture system?”
The more Shen Xiaoxiao said, the more unpleasant it sounded. Long Xi felt particularly uncomfortable. He admitted that he did know where they were and that this ship would sail over. However, this was a case of ‘taking advantage of something’… Also, the sudden appearance of this ship was not deliberately arranged by him. It was just a coincidence. He just did not want to miss this opportunity.
Of course, in their line of work, everyone’s hands were dirty. Wasn’t it very common for them to take advantage of others? Xiaoxiao did not need to be so agitated.
“Xiaoxiao, why do you need to be so angry? It’s normal to take advantage of others in this line of work, isn’t it? Even if I lied to you, you would not be harmed in the slightest.”
Shen Xiaoxiao’s brows were tightly furrowed. Looking at the man in front of her who made her feel increasingly unfamiliar, he was indeed not Yan Kuan.
However, they were clearly the same person. Why was it that after this split personality, this Long Xi did not have any similarities with Yan Kuan at all?
Or could it be that from the very beginning, her understanding of Yan Kuan was too one-sided and too fragmented? Was the real Yan Kuan actually like this?
Deep in thought, no strategy, no success?
At this moment, she felt that her head was also beginning to hurt, especially when she saw Long Xi. This headache was even more severe.
Perhaps, she really should calm down and think carefully about what she should do. After all, Yan Kuan and Long Xi could not even tell themselves apart right now, so what he did was none of her business, right?
“Take care of yourself.”
After saying these few words, Shen Xiaoxiao turned around and left, not caring at all whether Long Xi had followed behind her or not.
Long Xi watched Shen Xiaoxiao walk far away, and after steeling his heart, he still walked upstairs. Anyway, the only place that Xiaoxiao could go now was back to was the room, and she could only stay on this ship. It was almost midnight, and she would be arriving at T Country soon. She wouldn’t go anywhere.
With this thought in mind, Long Xi slowly walked to the third floor. He didn’t know that Shen Xiaoxiao had a fortuitous encounter after she went downstairs.
“Hey, Ma’am, where did you go? I told you to stay in your room and not go anywhere. This is a private party.”
As soon as Shen Xiaoxiao walked to the door of the room, she saw the captain walking over from the corner. He looked very worried when he saw her.
Shen Xiaoxiao immediately nodded and apologized. “I heard gunshots just now, so…”
“Alright, Ma’am, come over quickly. I’ll arrange for you to leave on a boat. You’ll reach the port in an hour at most. This ship isn’t peaceful.”
Shen Xiaoxiao did not expect that she would have such a fortuitous encounter after she had vented her anger.
“Oh right, where’s your male companion? Oh my god, there’s no time. How about this? You quickly leave with me. I’ll arrange for him to take the second boat out.”
Before Shen Xiaoxiao could find an excuse, the old captain had already impatiently pulled Shen Xiaoxiao away when he saw a crew member coming over.
On the deck, there were already two lifeboats. Each of them had six people on board. The crew members boarded the boats one after another. Only then did Shen Xiaoxiao realize that the old captain had deliberately arranged for his men to escape. What about him? Was he not going to leave?
“Old captain, aren’t you going to leave?”
“Ma’am, I have to stand on the last watch. Don’t worry, my men have already gone to look for your companion. Once they find him, they will send him away safely. I wish you good luck.”
Shen Xiaoxiao saw that the old captain was actually still guarding here. She thought for a moment and finally went forward to give him a farewell hug. She whispered in his ear, “They secretly planted a bomb on the ship.”
After Shen Xiaoxiao finished her words, she quietly placed the special pistol in her hand in his palm.
The old captain had saved her life. That was all she could do.
After releasing it, she immediately turned around and boarded the lifeboat. The old captain touched the pistol in his hand and stood there in a daze. He did not regain his senses for a long time.
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at the brightly lit floor. Since the choice of Long Xi had been made, she had nothing to regret. From the beginning, they had not been on the same path because he was Long Xi, not Yan Kuan.
The pitch-black darkness, the endless drifting, and the lack of direction in the future seemed very real at this moment in the night on the sea.
“Madam, I’ll give you a blanket.”
A gentle voice came from beside her. She turned her head and saw a young man at most 17 or 18 years old pass her a blanket.
Although it was night, she could see clearly that both of them were sitting at the stern. As they were sitting side by side, the four people in front had no idea what they were doing at the back.
Shen Xiaoxiao did not know why this young man made her feel a little out of place.. It was because Shen Xiaoxiao actually did not recognize whether he was a man or a woman.
