The love story of a wealthy family amid anti-fraud storm at the border

Yi Chen's heart suddenly tightened, and beads of sweat slid down his forehead instantly. He quickly scanned the study, looking for a place to hide.

His eyes fell on the huge curtains beside him. He moved in quickly and lightly, stuck close to the curtains and held his breath.

As the footsteps got closer, Yi Chen's heartbeat became more and more rapid, as if it was about to burst through his chest.

The door was slowly pushed open and a figure walked in. In the faint moonlight, Yi Chen could vaguely see that it was one of Joseph's confidants.

The confidant paced back and forth in the study, as if looking for something, and from time to time he carefully checked every hidden corner.

With every passing second, the air seemed to freeze.

Yi Chen didn't dare to breathe, he clenched his fists tightly, ready to deal with anything that might happen at any time.

The confidant then searched the desk and bookshelf for a long time, but didn't seem to find what he wanted.

Feeling somewhat angry and disappointed, he muttered a few words and turned to leave.

Just when Yi Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, an accident happened...

When the confidant was leaving, he somehow bumped into an ornament, which fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

The sound was particularly harsh in the quiet study.

The confidant suddenly became alert, turned around quickly, and scanned the study with sharp eyes.

He was afraid that his actions would attract other people in the residence.

Yi Chen's heart instantly rose to his throat. He knew that at this moment, he still needed to remain calm.

Once discovered, not only would the entire plan fail, but given the drug lord's personality, he would probably not be able to leave here alive.

And in South City, at Gu Chenxin’s home.

After he finished talking to the man on the other end of the phone, he came to the outside of Ling Yue's bedroom.

He knocked on the door gently and whispered, "Ling Yue, open the door. If you have any questions, just ask and I'll answer them, okay? Don't lock yourself in the room like this. I'm worried about you!"

There was no response from inside the house, leaving only dead silence.

Gu Chenxin's heart trembled and his brows furrowed.

He was worried about Ling Yue's safety and continued knocking on the door.

At this time, Yi Chen, who was in Joseph's study in South Africa, saw his confidant walking towards the curtain step by step.

He gritted his teeth and prepared for the worst. If there was no way to avoid it, then he would have to fight...

Yi Chen stared closely at the confidant's footsteps that were getting closer and closer.

He held his breath calmly and steadily, his hand unconsciously reaching for the pistol hidden at his waist.

Just as the confidant was about to open the curtains, a loud noise suddenly came from downstairs.

Listening carefully, it seemed that other men in the residence were shouting something.

The confidant was startled and hesitated for a moment, but finally turned around and walked quickly towards the door...

Yi Chen breathed a sigh of relief, feeling like he had been to the gates of hell.

Time is running out and opportunities are rare.

He had no time to think about anything else. He had to find evidence of Joseph's dealings with other international drug trafficking groups as soon as possible.

His other purpose for coming to South Africa was to catch all the drug dealers in one fell swoop.

He was still searching carefully in the study...

In Nancheng, Gu Chenxin was still knocking on Ling Yue's door, her voice already filled with anxiety:

"Yuer, if you don't open the door I'm going to bang on it. Answer me!"

The room was still silent. Gu Chenxin gritted his teeth, took a few steps back, then kicked the door hard with his long legs.

Once, twice, and with a loud "bang", the door was finally kicked open.

Gu Chenxin ignored the pain in his severely injured hand and rushed into the house, looking for Ling Yue everywhere.

Finally, he found Ling Yue curled up in the corner of the bedroom, her eyes empty and tears still on her face.

Gu Chenxin hurried forward, gently took her into his arms, and asked softly: "Yuer, what happened? Talk to me. If I did something wrong, you can scold me."

Ling Yue slowly came back to her senses and looked at Gu Chenxin, her lips trembling as if she wanted to say something, but swallowed it back.

Her eyes were red, but she tried hard not to let the tears fall. Her heart was beating violently, and she looked at Gu Chenxin with broken eyes.

She slowly raised her hand and handed the photo in her hand to Gu Chenxin.

The moment Gu Chenxin saw the photo, his heart instantly tightened.

He recognized the scarf; it was given to Yi Chen by Ling Yue.

Wasn't this scarf hidden in a secret room? How did it appear in the photo?

Gu Chenxin didn’t have time to think about this question for the time being. He finally knew why Ling Yue was sad.

It turned out that deep down in Ling Yue's heart, she had never let go of Yi Chen.

It seemed that she had lost all judgment when it came to news about Yi Chen. Any piece of news could arouse her feelings for Yi Chen.

Gu Chenxin only felt a chill throughout his body and soul. After all, his Yue'er did not accept him wholeheartedly.

He suppressed the sadness in his heart and asked, "Yuer, where did this photo come from?"

"I don't know who left it at the door last night!" Ling Yue replied weakly.

Last night, after I fell asleep?

Could it be that their every move is under the nose of that mysterious boss?

Why do accidents always happen at such coincidental times?

"Yuer, a lot has happened recently. You need to calm down. Let's first check the contents of this photo and its authenticity, okay?"

"That's exactly what I thought!"

After Ling Yue was gently comforted by Gu Chenxin, her heart gradually regained some peace.

However, she was also thinking about another question in her mind.

Gu Chenxin, where did you go during those ten years?

Are all his whereabouts related to Yi Chen?

Since she can't get the answers from you, she will go and find out for herself.

Who sent this photo? What does it want to tell me, and what purpose does it want to achieve?

Ling Yue regained her composure, and her reason told her that there were too many mysteries waiting for her to uncover.

The recent events have already made her deeply trapped in the vortex of the whole thing, and it is no longer possible to escape.

She immediately wiped away her tears and forced a smile towards Gu Chenxin, "I'm fine. What you said makes sense. It's me who wasn't rational enough!"

"Yuer, it's great that you really think so! Leave everything to me, okay?"

Gu Chenxin was still very worried at this moment, but he was not worried about what measures the other party would take against him next.

What he was worried about was that in Ling Yue's heart, she still loved Yi Chen.
