“How is she doing?” Jiang Junlin was also concerned about Gu Ci’s mental state. Dr. North had talked to her about Gu Ci’s condition, and now that Dr. North was in Paris, there was no one to treat her. Could her mental state remain stable?
“Not very talkative, but she seems okay,” Qin Wan actually liked Gu Ci. “During the time when Lu Zhiyuan was recuperating, she seemed quite normal. But in the few days before I went abroad, she seemed a bit down.”
“Why?” Jiang Junlin asked.
Qin Wan shook her head, “She doesn’t like to talk about her own issues.”
Jiang Junlin had a clear idea now. Gu Ci’s obsession was Lu Zhiyuan. There must have been some recent trouble in their relationship. From the fact that she didn’t want Lu Zhiyuan to kill Pei Qiuying and asked me to do it, it’s evident that Gu Ci’s condition has worsened.
“I can’t believe…” Jiang Junlin sighed, realizing that both Gu Ci and Ji Chi were affected by the same unfortunate circumstances.
It was truly unexpected.
“What are you two talking about?” Ji Chi walked over and wedged himself between them.
Qin Wan was annoyed, “Our matters in the dark web, you want to listen?”
“I can’t listen?” Ji Chi looked at Jiang Junlin coldly.
“You’re quite funny. You’re a member of Black Hawk, and you want to hear our secrets from the dark web,” Qin Wan put her hands on her hips. “Oh, are you planning to betray the boss? A young man thinking about switching sides, that’s promising!”
A hint of malevolence flashed in Ji Chi’s eyes. He suddenly leaned in, grabbed Qin Wan’s neck, and his eyes reddened slightly. “Say one more provocative word and see if I dare not kill you!”
With just a little pressure, he could snap Qin Wan’s neck. Qin Wan’s face turned pale, struggling to breathe.
Jiang Junlin quietly moved back a bit, changing his position. In the next moment, he saw Qin Wan grab Ji Chi’s wrist, twist it back, and her two fingers moved like lightning toward his eyes. Ji Chi reacted quickly, leaning back, and his supple waist seemed to fold like that of a girl who had practiced dancing, narrowly avoiding Qin Wan’s fingers.
“Who will kill whom is still uncertain!” Qin Wan stood up, not caring about the marks left on her neck by Ji Chi.
One was ready to retaliate, and the other was itching to beat him up.
“If you two keep making a ruckus, get out!” Jiang Junlin scolded, and both of them fell silent.
Inside the safe house, there was only dry food and canned goods, so they couldn’t prepare a proper meal. Jiang Junlin cooked a bowl of noodles for himself, adding some ham sausages since there were no eggs.
He cooked instant noodles for himself, and Qin Wan wasn’t hungry. Ji Chi didn’t care what Qin Wan was eating. Qin Wan took out a few snacks like a treasure, “Master, want some? I bought them from the convenience store and keep them in my bag all the time.”
Qin Wan smiled with youthful vitality, her heart and eyes filled only with Jiang Junlin. Ji Chi, who was about to bite through his knife and fork, found Qin Wan disgusting!
Seeing Ji Chi getting angry, Qin Wan felt great!
You despicable guy, you dared to lock up my master for over a month. I hope you choke on your anger!
“When did you two get in touch?” Ji Chi gritted his teeth and suddenly realized, “I know now. You deliberately placed that violin piece in my little sister’s doll. You wanted to give a tip. Clearly, you could have come in and taken it yourself, but you made me take it out and listened to the whole piece at the door.”
He really wanted to dig into Jiang Junlin’s heart to see how many tricks he had up his sleeve.
There was the sound of a car downstairs, and Qin Wan’s face changed. She leaned against the window and saw a man getting out of the car, which was parked on the street. He lived across from them. Qin Wan watched as the man went upstairs, and the lights in the second-floor room came on.
“Master, there are surveillance cameras on the street tonight. Will we be detected?” Qin Wan asked.
“Don’t worry, the nearby cameras are all broken!”
“How do you know?” Ji Chi blurted out.
“Not far from here is the red-light district, so the surveillance cameras are often broken. Even if they’re newly installed, they’ll be damaged quickly. I check the surveillance cameras in your safe house every two days.” After checking, I erase the records without a trace.
“Indeed, you’re quite cunning!” Qin Wan blurted out. “Oh, 1 mean, you’re well-prepared.”
Jiang Junlin remained silent.
Qin Wan then asked, “Master, when are we going back to our country?”
“You can’t leave!” Ji Chi put down his knife and fork, his madness returning. “If you want to go, then go quickly. He must stay here!”
“Are you becoming arrogant because you’re being pampered?” Qin Wan was angry. “This is unreasonable!”
Jiang Junlin almost choked on his noodles again, coughing heavily. However, Ji Chi was not interested in what Qin Wan had to say. “Jiang Junlin, can’t you hear me?”
“Why should he stay here? All of our people in the dark web are looking for him. We still don’t know who the enemy is. Do you want him to stay in Paris and die with you?” Qin Wan was not accommodating Ji Chi’s whims. “Your thoughts are too selfish!”
“Shut up!”
“I won’t!” Qin Wan provocatively looked at him. “If you have the guts, make me shut up by beating me until 1 submit!”
“Stop arguing. Can you respect your own fugitive persona? You’re causing chaos, why don’t you go out with a megaphone and show them the way while you’re at it!”
Ji Chi and Qin Wan exchanged sharp glances, neither willing to yield to the other.
Ji Chi’s injuries were severe, and he slept heavily at night. Jiang Junlin’s safe house was well-equipped with surveillance equipment. Qin Wan had studied information warfare, and her information processing skills were sharper than Jiang Junlin’s. Ji Chi was much more efficient and clean when it came to his tasks, and she was in good health with no burdens.
Qin Wan monitored the cameras, while Jiang Junlin sat by the window. He appeared to be resting, but he was observing the surrounding environment. Although there were surveillance cameras near the safe house, there were none on the street. Jiang Junlin had chosen a safe house in a high location, allowing him to have a clear view and monitor the intersection a kilometer away.
“Master, you should go and rest. I’ll keep watch here,” Qin Wan suggested.
“Focus on monitoring,” Jiang Junlin replied. Besides monitoring the four nearby cameras, Qin Wan was also searching for the people from the dark web.
This was a task that Jiang Junlin couldn’t handle, so having Qin Wan here eased his worries. It prevented him from being locked up with Ji Chi, in the dark, and clueless about everything. Now, they both had eyes on the situation.
“You really spoil him. Look at him, sleeping so soundly. I could shoot him, and he wouldn’t even know,” Qin Wan said with a teasing tone.
Jiang Junlin replied, “He’s injured.”
“Isn’t that the case for you too?” Qin Wan noticed that Jiang Junlin had lost weight. That Ji Chi, that despicable guy, must have been mistreating him. Hence, her trigger finger itched.
She taunted Ji Chi while keeping an eye on the surveillance. Then, in Ji Chi’s safe house, she spotted Dr. North.
“Master, come over and take a look,” Qin Wan said. “She brought a team of nineteen bodyguards with her, yet she came alone to investigate. There must be something fishy.”
“Do you have a grudge against her?” Jiang Junlin inquired.
“It’s nothing serious!” Qin Wan raised an eyebrow and smirked. “As a student, who doesn’t have a few teachers they don’t like?”
Jiang Junlin sighed. It seemed there was some underlying tension, but over the years, Dr. North had refrained from appearing in front of her to protect Little Cherry..
