Chapter 95: A Twist of Fear – Each One More Fearless Than the Last!

Yu Rong was still in shock, his mind reeling.

He forced himself to calm down: "Okay, let's see when Lili has time and invite her over for a meal."

When Madam Yu saw that he had agreed, she nodded quickly.

Chu Chengzhang and Yan Wei sat on the sofa, frozen and cold.

***
The next morning, a red glow appeared on the horizon.

Jiang Zaiye opened the room door and came out rubbing his eyes.

I saw Jiang Li sitting lazily in a sofa chair by the French windows, with a computer on a small round table in front of her.

The light cast a soft glow on her face, making her appear as beautiful as a meticulously painted picture, both ethereal and otherworldly.

The two wolves remained in that self-conscious and obedient prone position, serving as footrests for Jiang Li.

Jiang Zaiye immediately snapped out of it, took out his phone and snapped more than a dozen photos, his composition and angles even more professional than those of an experienced fan site admin.

After taking the photos, he sent them all to Cheng Sijun and went over to her: "Mom, did you stay up all night?"

Jiang Li hummed in agreement, her eyebrows slightly lowered, her gaze fixed on the computer screen.

Jiang Zaiye first went to Jiang Li's side to take her empty water glass, then went to the coffee table to fill it with warm water and handed it to Jiang Li.

He looked at the map on the computer screen, with its winding lines and several red dots flashing on it.

Judging from the map, it should be in the southern border area.

The next second, the red dots stopped moving and flashing, and remained lit for a long time.

At the same time, Jiang Li received three messages on the wolf head icon app on his phone.

【It is done.】

[Recently, dark web marketplace transactions were becoming increasingly frequent, but after the Du family's downfall, they all became less active.]

However, the number of attacks on the Narcotics Control Bureau's network has doubled recently, and the same is happening to Interpol; they're a bit panicked.

The message is destroyed immediately after being read, leaving no trace.

Jiang Li's lips curled into a smile as she leaned back lazily, typing slowly on the keyboard: [What's the panic? Dad's here.]

there.

Xu Chuang stood by the mountain road, looking at the latest news. His lips twitched slightly as he held a cigarette in his mouth. Suddenly remembering something, he quickly typed.

[There's one more thing, Mr. Li. Ono is on Interpol's investigation list.]

Those who make it onto Interpol's internal investigation list are all big shots, not ordinary people.

Even the most notorious drug lords on the run deserve to be at the very bottom of the list.

Jiang Zaiye, a seven-year-old child, was put on the internal list.

Jiang Li raised an eyebrow slightly as she read the message.

Jiang Zaiye stood next to Jiang Li, staring at his phone, and said inexplicably, "Are you crazy?! She's still a baby! Why are you always checking up on her!"

Xu Chuang sent another message: "Those guys have never seen a seven-year-old on Interpol's investigation list before. I wonder what they're looking for—what brand of milk does Xiao Ye drink? Unbelievable!"

Jiang Zaiye added in a serious tone: "My dad buys all my breast milk now, it's so great, I'm a breastfeeding baby."

Jiang Li: "..."

Xu Chuang said, "If I'm not mistaken, it's Qin Yexiao investigating, right?"

Jiang Zaiye said speechlessly, "Besides my dad, you can't find another person as boring as me, right?"

Jiang Li pressed a couple of keys and replied to Xu Chuang: 【Mm.】

Xu Chuang asked, "So what should we do about this?" "A cunning man!" Jiang Zaiye snorted, then shrugged indifferently, "Let him investigate. If he finds anything, I'll admit defeat."

After saying that, she turned her head with an air of superiority and went to the kitchen to make breakfast.

Jiang Li didn't bother with it, put down her phone, and got up to take a shower.

Twenty minutes later, she came out of the shower, drying her hair with a towel. Her fingers were long and slender, with a hazy mist around her knuckles that made them glow white.

Jiang Zaiye had just finished collecting the dried clothes and was helping her organize the wardrobe: "Mom, your phone rang just now."

He didn't recognize the phone number, so he didn't answer.

Jiang Li nodded, walked over, and picked up her phone.

She didn't have the phone number saved, but she had a good memory and recognized it immediately as Yu Rong's private phone number.

I saw her at the Rong residence yesterday, and she called me today. Her purpose is obvious.

The phone screen suddenly displayed an incoming caller ID.

Jiang Li paused in drying her hair, her jaw twitched impatiently, but ultimately answered the call out of respect for Old Master Yu.

I turned on speakerphone and slammed my phone onto the table.

“Lili, it’s me, Uncle Yu.” Yu Rong spoke first.

Jiang Li leaned back in her chair with one hand and continued drying her hair with a towel in the other, her legs casually bent, and politely asked, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

Yu Rong smiled and didn't beat around the bush: "Are you free these days? Uncle Yu would like to invite you to a meal. I haven't seen you since you returned to Beijing."

Jiang Li looked at herself in the mirror, her eyes narrowing slightly.

She's been back for quite some time, and the engagement has been called off. Should I invite her to dinner now?
Jiang Li didn't have time to deal with them, and spoke slowly and deliberately, her voice slightly low: "No need."

Yu Rong had planned how he would persuade Jiang Li if she declined, saying she was too busy, but he didn't expect her to refuse so decisively.

His smile suddenly became somewhat forced, and he asked gently, "Lili, are you angry that your uncle didn't help you with your engagement to Xuanchen?"

Jiang Li narrowed her eyes in annoyance, and spoke again, her voice colder: "Uncle Yu, I have no feelings for Yu Xuanchen. Even if you don't bring up breaking off the engagement, I will."

If Jiang Li had said this before yesterday, Yu Rong would have inevitably overthought it; she was just being stubborn to save face.

But now we know that Jiang Li and Master Rong have an extraordinary relationship.

Yu Rong felt that the Yu family had missed a great opportunity.

He persisted, asking, "Lili, it's just a meal. You haven't seen your Grandpa Yu in a while, have you?"

The moment Mr. Yu was brought up.

A cold glint flashed in Jiang Li's eyes, but two seconds later, she slowly chuckled, "Uncle Yu, you've heard I have a bad temper, so I won't spoil your fun."

These words were very polite, but the implication was extremely clear—if you don't want to fall out, then don't fucking mess with me.

hang up the phone.

Yu Rong sat in his office chair, holding his phone, seemingly lost in thought. After a long while, he let out a deep breath and made a call to his wife.

"Let's not bring up the matter of finding Lili again. We'll find a new way to address Ruoqi's graduation issue," Yu Rong said.

Over there, Madam Yu immediately became anxious: "Is she still angry that I forced her to break off the engagement?"

Yu Rong opened his mouth, but before he could utter a sound, he was interrupted by Madam Yu.

"If she's angry, I'll apologize to her." Madam Yu didn't care about saving face at this moment and lowered her head: "If she wants to marry into the Yu family, I'll agree."

Upon hearing this, Yu Rong laughed sarcastically: "You really think your son is some hot commodity, good enough for Lili?"

Madam Yu's face suddenly darkened: "What do you mean? How can you talk about your own son like that? Isn't he good enough? Everyone has seen his achievements in the company! How is he not good enough for Jiang Li?"
