"They've been keeping it under wraps all this time?" Lu Xingzhi's expression suddenly became heavy. If even he didn't know about this matter, it meant that even the Liang and Chen families didn't know about it.
One could imagine the seriousness of this matter. Either the higher-ups hadn't received the news yet, or they were keeping it under wraps even if they did. Even Old Master Liang didn't find out anything.
A passenger ship with more than a thousand people and more than three hundred compatriots.
What would happen to these people if they fell into the hands of that organization?
Thinking about those soldiers who sacrificed themselves in the mountains, dying for no reason and becoming lab rats for that organization's experiments, Lu Xingzhi thought.
"Not many people know about it yet, but my men happened to see it at the port. The entire passenger ship was hijacked, including the staff and the captain. After those people were taken ashore in batches, the ship was blown up and sunk to the bottom of the sea," Master Cheng said. "My men are still keeping an eye on it. I'll let you know if there's any progress."
After a pause, Master Cheng continued, "Go and ask Old Master Liang. This matter can't be kept under wraps like this. Not to mention others, the lives of more than three hundred compatriots are extremely precious."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Xingzhi took a few seconds to suppress his emotions. No matter what, it was Jiang Yao's birthday in a few hours. He didn't want to affect Jiang Yao's mood with this matter.
"I'm going out to discuss something with Zhou Junmin. I should be back soon. If you're sleepy, wait for me at home."
Lu Xingzhi lowered his head and kissed Jiang Yao's forehead. "Good girl."
"Why are you going out? Stay at home. You're in a special situation now. If there's anything, ask Zhou Junmin to look for you. It's cold outside. If you catch a cold now, I'll really take a liter syringe and give you an injection. "Jiang Yao pouted and pulled Lu Xingzhi back, not allowing him to go out.
"It's not that far. I'm afraid that our discussion will affect your rest. The road outside is flat, so I'll walk slowly." Lu Xingzhi waved his phone. "Call me if you need anything."
Jiang Yao guessed that the discussion Lu Xingzhi was talking about was confidential. She didn't know who he was talking to on the phone, but when he was on the phone, he was frighteningly gloomy. When Jiang Yao saw that he was determined to go out, she got up and went back to the bedroom to get him a jacket. She helped him put it on before nodding to let him go out.
Just like he had promised Jiang Yao, Lu Xingzhi walked at a leisurely pace. Looking at his back, he looked like a little old man. Jiang Yao smiled and shouted at him again, "I'll wait for you to come back so we can sleep together!"
Lu Xingzhi turned around and glanced at Jiang Yao. He pressed his lips together and raised his eyebrows. It wasn't hard to guess that the person who said she would wait for him to come back so they could sleep together was waiting for his gift.
After Lu Xingzhi left, Jiang Yao and Mother Jiang talked for a while before returning to the bedroom. She didn't do anything else but rummaged through the cabinets to find where Lu Xingzhi could have hidden the gift.
Under the bed? It was empty.
There wasn't anything extra in the wardrobe either.
Jiang Yao sat on the edge of the bed and couldn't help but snicker. He didn't go out recently. Could it be that he asked Zhou Junmin to prepare something for him? He said he was looking for Zhou Junmin to get something, but he didn't bring her along. He also didn't ask Zhou Junmin to come to the study to discuss something. Maybe it wasn't the so-called confidential matter, but the gift he had prepared for her from Zhou Junmin.
