Chapter 211 Lying
When Xia Qingluo saw the message from Yan Huan, his eyes lit up instantly.
If the Shadow Society's crimes were to be exposed, its position in the world would probably be in jeopardy.
Although the Shadow Society has amassed a lot of wealth, China has never deeply infiltrated it, and many wealthy families in other countries have not become involved with the Shadow Society.
An invisible hand controls the entire world. Perhaps the top families in various countries know this secret, but without definite evidence, they cannot unite.
However, when the evil deeds of the Shadow Society are exposed, those large families that were not involved in it must unite and face the outside world together. Otherwise, after the Shadow Society recovers, they will take action against those large families.
Moreover, any family with a sense of justice would not want to see Shadow being so domineering and controlling the world.
[Xia Qingluo: Where is the database? Give me a location quickly.]
[Yan Huan: The situation is too dangerous, so Cohen and I have to go with you.]
Xia Qingluo stared at the screen for a long time, and his head tilted unconsciously.
Actually, what Yan Huan said makes some sense.
Cohen is a core member of the Shadow Society. If we take Cohen with us, it would be like holding the emperor hostage to control the other lords. If necessary, we can even take Cohen as a hostage.
And if Yan Huan didn't go, Cohen wouldn't be so honest.
After all, Cohen listens to Yan Huan very much and must like Yan Huan very much.
But the problem is, Yan Huan is powerless... isn't it dangerous?
Yan Huan seemed to have guessed what Xia Qingluo was thinking and replied immediately.
[Yan Huan: Don't worry, Cohen will protect me. I am safe.]
Xia Qingluo had an incredible expression on his face and slowly typed out a few words.
[Xia Qingluo: Let me ask you something off topic. What is your relationship now? Don't...sell your soul for me.]
【Yan Huan: ……】
[Yan Huan: You misunderstood. Cohen's sexual orientation is normal. He is not gay.]
Xia Qingluo rubbed his eyebrows and didn't feel comfortable pointing it out directly.
Only Yan Huan believed this.
As for the fate of two people, it naturally depends on the individuals.
Xia Qingluo agreed, and Yan Huan gave the information.
Three days later, the Moonlight Sails luxury cruise ship will dock at Plymouth Port in Country Y.
Cohen would forge identities for Xia Qingluo and Yan Huan, allowing them to buy tickets and board the ship as ordinary tourists.
However, Xia Qingluo did not tell Lu Chengyuan about this plan.
Although she didn't say it explicitly, Xia Qingluo had actually already accepted Lu Chengyuan as her boyfriend in her heart.
The current Lu Chengyuan is completely different from the Lu Chengyuan in his previous life, almost like two different people.
He is considerate and can coax people. He is no longer as cold and violent as he was in his previous life. He is even more attractive. How could she not be moved?
Therefore, Xia Qingluo didn't want Lu Chengyuan to take this risk.
Her affairs with Luosha had little to do with Lu Chengyuan.
After a while, Xia Qingluo and Shangguan You returned to the ward.
Shangguan Zhou looked at the pile of potato chips, his forehead throbbing wildly, "I'm a patient, why did you buy these snacks?"
Shangguan You had already opened two packets, one for Xia Qingluo and one for himself. He put the potato chips into his mouth, which were crispy and delicious. "Of course I'm eating them for you to see, to encourage you to be discharged from the hospital soon."
Shangguan Zhou looked at Shangguan You with disgust. The potato chip crumbs fell to the ground, and no one knew where their contents would be taken by her shoes.
He subconsciously brushed off the faint dust on his body, then looked at Lu Chengyuan.
"If you have any next plan, please tell me."
Lu Chengyuan nodded slightly, then followed Xia Qingluo out of the ward.
The two began chatting about family matters, and no one mentioned the cruise ship they were going to board in three days.
After a while, the two returned to the Xia family.
During this period, the people of the Xia family seemed to have tacitly agreed to Lu Chengyuan living in their house.
Anyway, the Lu family’s house is deserted, so it would be better for us to live together and make it more lively.
Xia Chengde and Ming Ruilan had been discharged from the hospital and were sitting on the sofa in the living room. When they saw the two people coming back, they immediately smiled.
Ming Ruilan waved at Lu Chengyuan, "Yuan'er, Luo Luo, you two sit down, we have something to tell you."
Xia Qingluo and Lu Chengyuan sat on the sofa opposite.
Ming Ruilan and Xia Chengde felt that the two of them liked each other sitting together.
Lu Chengyuan handled the live broadcast incident very well.
Not only did it not affect Xia Qingluo's reputation, but he also took the opportunity to make their relationship public.
They also just found out that their daughter, in addition to acting, is also good at design, and has even secretly created a big brand.
Ming Ruilan took out two tickets made of pure gold with a smile on her face.
"These are two tickets for our newly developed resort. We'll leave the day after tomorrow. Didn't you just make the official announcement recently? It's a good opportunity for us to get out more and inspect the resort as tourists."
Xia Qingluo and Lu Chengyuan's expressions both changed, each with their own thoughts.
Xia Qingluo curled her lips, picked up one of the tickets, and looked at the details on it.
The resort is on an island in China, and the entire vacation lasts seven days.
She will be boarding a ship in three days, so how can she have time for a vacation?
Lu Chengyuan was also thinking about a lot.
Although he really wanted to go on vacation with Lolo, to relax and have fun, boarding the ship three days later was very critical.
"I have some work in the company recently."
"I suddenly remembered that my agent had accepted a notice for me."
They both spoke at the same time.
Xia Qingluo and Lu Chengyuan looked at each other, both stunned for a moment, and then they couldn't help but smile.
The two of them are so in sync that they are busy together.
Xia Chengde crossed his arms over his chest, frowned slightly, and said with some displeasure: "You young people, it's a good thing to work hard, but you can't always think about work."
"Most couples break up because of work."
"Besides, you just made it official. Whether it's for your career or something else, you should appear in public together and do some activities so that everyone can see your romance and avoid being criticized."
"Okay, it's decided. If you don't want to go, we'll have to tie you up and take you there."
Xia Chengde's tone was particularly firm. After he finished speaking, he pulled Ming Ruilan away without giving the two a chance to refute.
Ming Ruilan did not try to persuade Xia Chengde this time, and seemed to agree with his point of view.
Lu Chengyuan didn't dare to say a word. He still had to behave better in front of his father-in-law and mother-in-law.
Xia Qingluo didn't even have the chance to say anything. Looking at the two tickets, he felt extremely troubled.
The two returned to the room and secretly began to discuss the plan.
Xia Qingluo leaned back on the pink plush sofa and asked, "Are you going back to China to work that day?"
Lu Chengyuan nodded slightly. "After all, my company is mainly in China. I have been in Country Y for so long and have accumulated a lot of work, so I plan to go back to China tomorrow."
"What about you? What kind of filming did you accept?" Lu Chengyuan asked with a curved lip.
Xia Qingluo was very skilled at making up stories. "I've accepted an advertisement for Cohen's company. I'm leaving tomorrow. The advertisement is quite complicated and will probably take about five days to shoot."
Lu Chengyuan nodded, then stepped forward, hooked his arms around Xia Qingluo's waist, bent down and gave her a kiss, his voice deep.
"Then let's take this opportunity to do what we'll do in the next few days tonight..."
