C365 Retentive Period
Ye Tian said, "Give me the phone. I have to talk to Chairman Chen personally." Liu Tie nodded: "That's what I meant too. This is too weird. Other than Chairman Chen, me, and the three of you, no one else knows about this trip of yours. How could they accurately set up an ambush?"
Ye Tian took the phone and dialed Chairman Chen's private line.
Ye Tian reported what happened to him during Xiangjiang. His tone of voice still had some doubts about Lu Lee's intentions. After Ye Tian said this, he handed the phone to Lu Lee. "Chairman wants to talk to you." Lu Lee took the phone and said softly, "Hello, President. I am Lu Lee."
Chairman Chen laughed on the other end of the phone, "Oh, Lu Lee, this is done beautifully." Lu Lee replied, "It was just a coincidence. It didn't take much effort." Chairman Chen said: "You can't say that, do you know how important the meteorolite is? It could be a great help to our space business. Principal Li of the Chinese Academy of Sciences said that high concentration energy is a big breakthrough in space energy. Forget it, I'm not too sure. "
Lu Lee did not say anything. Chairman Chen then said, "There's something your father told you, right?" Lu Lee said: "Father did not tell me anything, I just asked him to send someone to take away the meteorolite." "Oh" said Chairman Chen: "Then let me tell you, Star State has sent out an invitation, hoping that we can send out our elites to capture one of the base's main figures, Sheyeo. You and Sheyeo have interacted a lot, you can do this. "
Lu Lee replied, "Alright." Chairman Chen then said, "Lu Lee, just bear with it. I want to see what those people are up to." Lu Lee replied, "Rest assured President, I understand." Chairman Chen said: "That's good, as for Ye Tian, he misunderstood you, but in the future he will understand. How about this, you send him to the Xiangjiang garrison and let him receive treatment there, it's safe there." Star State, Cia, Hasen will be waiting for you at Bombay in a week.
With that, he hung up.
Lu Lee said to Ye Tian: "The chairman wants me to send you to the Xiangjiang garrison." Ye Tian didn't say anything. Lu Lee said, "I originally prepared a place for you to stay. It seems like I don't need it now." Lu Lee told the chauffeur to drive directly to Xiangjiang's garrison.
There were already a few men waiting there, among them were the two man in black s that were bullied by Lu Lee in the hospital.
Seeing Lu Lee, the two of them had complicated expressions on their faces. Lu Lee smiled faintly and said, "We meet again." The two of them smiled awkwardly. Lu Lee said, "I'll leave it to you guys, Mr. Ye. His injuries are very serious. Take good care of him." Then, he looked at Ye Tian: "Rest in peace, we'll meet again."
With that, he got into the car and drove away.
When they returned to the villa, Victoria and Yagyu Sizuka, along with the two doctors, were already waiting in the living room. When they didn't see Ye Tian, Victoria asked, "Lu, where is he?" Lu Lee smiled bitterly, "I've sent it to the Xiangjiang garrison." He said to the two doctors, "I'm sorry to have wasted your time." After saying that, he took out two stacks of money, "Take this. Go back and rest."
The two doctors didn't want it at all. They quickly refused and said, "Mr Lu, this is too much. We are both from Hongxing, it is our honor to be able to work for Mr Lu." Lu Lee pushed it over and said, "If I tell you to take it, then take it. Why are you so long-winded?"
Lu Lee walked the two doctors to the door and said to Xiao Dao after they got on the car, "Xiao Dao, come in." Xiao Dao followed Lu Lee in and greeted Victoria and the others with a smile.
Lu Lee asked, "Xiao Dao, are you familiar with Bai Feng?" Xiao Dao was stunned for a moment. "He's familiar with it, he's Master Fu's foster daughter, the current Hall Master in Phoenix Hall. His skills are not bad, but his agility is somewhat similar to Elder Sister Xu's." Lu Lee shook his head. "I'm talking about her past." Xiao Dao asked, "What's wrong?" "You suspect her?" Lu Lee smiled and said, "I'm just curious, that's all." Xiao Dao replied, "It seems like no one knows about her past. She said that she was smuggled over from the mainland."
Lu Lee changed the topic, "Xiao Dao, we will be leaving the Xiangjiang in two days." Xiao Dao was startled, "What happened? You are leaving after staying just a few days? " Wu Tie nodded and said, "Yes, I still have some urgent matters to attend to. Remember to work hard on your cultivation after I leave. Don't delay any longer." Xiao Dao sighed, "Elder Brother Lee, when are you coming back?" Lu Lee said, "For the time being, I can't explain it clearly. What's the matter? Don't worry about leaving behind your hatred for the children of the martial arts world."
Xiao Dao finally revealed a trace of a smile, "Mm, then in the next two days, Elder Brother Lee, you guys should rest well. Master Fu is still thinking about inviting you for a meal." Lu Lee said, "I want to go see Elder Sister Xu tomorrow." Xiao Dao replied, "Alright, I'll go and arrange it."
Returning to her bedroom, Victoria looked at Lu Lee and said, "Lu, you asked that Baifeng just now, you couldn't have fallen for her, right?" Lu Lee said, "What do you think all day? I just thought it was a coincidence that a woman who looked so much like Elder Sister Xu suddenly appeared in Elder Sister Xu's original life circle. And no one actually knows her background. "
Yagyu Sizuka said, "Could it be because of you?" Lu Lee shook his head: "Probably not, how did she know that I would definitely come to Xiangjiang?" Yagyu Sizuka said: "That may not be the case, young master, think about it. Given your current situation, if you have anything that requires you to interact with Hua Xia, the best buffer zone would naturally be Xiangjiang."
"Who cares? We went to see Elder Sister Xu tomorrow and left the day after tomorrow." Lu Lee said. Yagyu Sizuka said, "I'm afraid that you'll have something to do with her in the next couple of days." Lu Lee shook his head with a bitter smile. What were these women thinking all day?
Yagyu Sizuka was not wrong. This White Phoenix really had something to do with him.
The next afternoon, accompanied by Master Fu and a group of old men from Hongxing, Lu Lee took Victoria and Yagyu Sizuka to Xu Jing's grave, and naturally the white phoenix followed. Her eyes were fixed on Lu Lee's movements, and they were complicated. She had never believed that Lu Lee really cared about Xu Jing, and Lu Lee's obsession made her feel that Xu Jing was just one of his toys.
Her real name was Xu Juan. Actually, it wasn't that Master Fu didn't think that she would have anything to do with Xu Jing, it was just that she looked a lot younger than Xu Jing. Especially her personality, which was very different from Xu Jing's. She was Xu Jing's twin sister. It was just that she never had many worries, and her looks were younger than Xu Jing's. However, she did have a cheerful personality and a straightforward temper, which was completely different from Xu Jing's.
She was intentionally getting close to Lu Lee, and someone told her that Xu Jing's death was related to Lu Lee. She even thought that Xu Jing was indirectly killed by Lu Lee, and if she wanted revenge, that person would give her an idea. Lu Lee would definitely come to Xiangjiang, and in Xiangjiang, the one who had the closest relationship with Lu Lee would naturally be the Hong Xing Society.
Lu Lee's grief was under the pseudonym of 'White Phoenix'. Xu Juan was very confused. It didn't seem like she was faking it. Besides, Lu Lee probably didn't have to pretend for anyone to see. When they left Xu Jing's grave, Xu Juan's heart was unable to calm down. Especially after she heard that Lu Lee was about to leave Xiangjiang, she was a little anxious.
Tonight was Master Fu's treat. Lu Lee was once Hong Yi's red stick, so naturally, the show was very lively.
Lu Lee drank a lot of wine, so he couldn't refuse everyone's warmth. Xu Juan silently looked at Lu Lee. She didn't know if this man's way of doing things was real or not. Victoria and Yagyu Sizuka couldn't persuade him at all. Lu Lee was good at drinking, but there was still a limit.
Finally, he was drunk.
Master Fu was enjoying himself as well. With the exception of a few women, the men were almost done. Carrying Lu Lee, Victoria and Yagyu Sizuka got into Xiao Dao's car. Xu Juan also followed him. "Xiao Dao, you drank quite a bit too. Let me drive." Xiao Dao replied, "I'm fine." Xu Juan said in a displeased tone, "Don't try to be brave. If anything happens, it will harm Mr Lu." Xiao Dao handed the keys to Xu Juan, who started the car and drove to Lu Lee's villa.
Xiao Dao sat on the first passenger seat. Victoria and Yagyu Sizuka sat on the left and right side of Lu Lee. They did not notice that Lu Lee's eyes, which were already closed, revealed a slit as he looked at Xu Juan, who was sitting in the front row.
When the car arrived at the villa, Xu Juan got off and took it from Victoria. Victoria had too much to drink, so she ran to the side of the car and started vomiting. Xu Juan said, "Miss Liu Sheng, please take care of Victoria. I'll take care of Mr Lu." Yagyu Sizuka was about to refuse when she noticed Lu Lee pinching her palm. Yagyu Sizuka nodded. "Then I'll leave it to Miss Baifeng."2
Xiao Dao followed Xu Juan and helped Lu Lee in. They sat down in the living room. Xu Juan let Xiao Dao take a glass of water and said, "Go out. We've all had too much to drink today. Be careful. Don't let anyone take the chance to assassinate you." Xiao Dao left without a second thought.
Yagyu Sizuka helped Victoria in and said, "I'll take her to her room. I'll be troubling you, Young Master." Xu Juan smiled faintly: "You go ahead, I will take good care of Mr Lu." When she heard the sound of Yagyu Sizuka closing the door, Xu Juan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the limp Lu Lee, she took out a small paper packet and gently opened it. Then, she poured some white powder into the water inside the knife.
Xu Juan crumpled the paper and put it back in her bag.
The white powder melted as soon as it entered the water, and the glass of water became transparent once more. Xu Juan helped Lu Lee up, "Mr Lu, drink some water." Unexpectedly, Lu Lee's action was quite big. Xu Juan helped him up while she held the water. After Lu Lee hit the cup, the water in her hand splashed onto the ground.
Lu Lee sat up straight and said with a drowsy look in his eyes, "Water? Where's the water?" Xu Juan was extremely angry. She didn't know if Lu Lee did it intentionally or not. She was a little scared, could it be that Lu Lee already knew of her intentions?
