A dowry of one billion, and I'll marry him!

Bai Nuannuan was a little puzzled. Looking at Zheng Jiao's guilty look, she stared at Zheng Jiao with curiosity, as if she wanted to see through her.

"You're not asleep," Bai Nuannuan said softly.

Even Gu Yubai, who was behind her, gave Zheng Jiao a deep look. Although he didn't say anything, his eyes became somewhat playful.

Zheng Jiao walked over and sat down to the side. She looked at Shi Yanxia, ​​hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice, "Sister Shi, I've lost something. Could you go and check it for me?"

"I'm a little scared to go alone," Zheng Jiao said in a low voice.

As soon as she finished speaking, Shi Yanxia's eyes sharpened, a smile curled at the corners of her lips, and her expression turned cold, but she still smiled and said, "Okay, where is it? I'll go with you."

As she spoke, she picked up the flashlight and stood up, but Bai Nuannuan stopped her.

"It's so late at night, why don't we look for it tomorrow? Anyway, no one will pick it up in the wild," Bai Nuannuan said softly.

It's said that you can never be too careful, especially since this is a deserted island. Going out in the middle of the night, if something happens, that would be terrible.

Seeing Bai Nuannuan's wary gaze, Shi Yanxia gently patted her hand, signaling her not to worry.

"It's alright. I guess Zheng Jiao's things are more important. I'll go with her to look for them and we'll be back in a bit," Shi Yanxia said softly.

She got up and followed Zheng Jiao outside.

Seeing this, Bai Nuannuan felt a strange unease.

“Gu Yubai, don’t you find it strange? When you hear a whistle outside, Zheng Jiao goes out and comes back looking a little guilty. Now she’s even deliberately calling Yan Yan out to help her find something.”

"What valuable thing did you lose that you had to go looking for in the middle of the night?"

"Wouldn't it be easier to find them tomorrow when it's light? If we go out at midnight, even ghosts won't see us," Bai Nuannuan said softly, biting her lip.

I noticed Zheng Jiao's eyes were a little darting around, and something seemed off.

"Let's go and take a look," Gu Yubai said in a low voice.

He took the flashlight, got up, and followed Bai Nuannuan outside.

When they went outside, they found that Shi Yanxia and Zheng Jiao had disappeared from the surroundings.

"Where did they go?" Bai Nuannuan was dumbfounded.

Seeing that the surroundings were empty, the two figures had long since disappeared.

"What should we do? Where did they go? Should we split up and look for them?" Bai Nuannuan asked anxiously.

Gu Yubai shook his head and said, "We can't break up. We're both alone, and it would be troublesome if we encountered danger. It's better to go together."

As he spoke, he looked towards Group A.

"Let's go take a look over there," he said, leading Bai Nuannuan towards that direction.

Just now, Zheng Jiao led Shi Yanxia towards the seaside. Her legs felt a little weak, and after taking a few steps, she suddenly stopped.

As Shi Yanxia passed her, Zheng Jiao grabbed Shi Yanxia's arm in pain.

"What's wrong?" Shi Yanxia looked at her arm in confusion.

Zheng Jiao's eyes were red and swollen, and she bit her lip in pain as she whispered, "Sister Shi, don't go."

"Hmm?" Shi Yanxia looked at her with a half-smile, glanced at Zheng Jiao, and said with amusement, "You asked me to come out and help you find something, but now you're telling me not to go?"

"Is something on your mind?" Shi Yanxia asked, striding forward.

Forced to retreat step by step, Zheng Jiao struggled internally, tears welling up in her eyes. She pulled Shi Yanxia back and said, "Let's not go."

Shi Yanxia stood still, not being moved by her.

She stood there, her small hands behind her back, and looked at Zheng Jiao by the moonlight, whispering, "Chen Yuan just contacted you and gave you a signal to come out and discuss something."

"Li You, you called me out and took me to the beach. Did you want to murder me?" Shi Yanxia's voice was light, yet it seemed to see through everything.

Zheng Jiao froze, staring at Shi Yanxia in disbelief.

"Don't worry, I didn't follow you. I just guessed. I warned you and even had my fortune told," Shi Yanxia said in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, Zheng Jiao covered her face and collapsed to the ground.

“They didn’t say they wanted to kill you. They said they just wanted to bring you here so you could help them with their medical treatment,” Zheng Jiao said in a low voice.

She quickly got up, looked at Shi Yanxia seriously, and said, "Sister Shi, I just thought about it, and I feel like they don't have good intentions."

"He asked me to come see a doctor for them in the middle of the night, and we even met at the beach. I felt something was off. Chen Yuan threatened me, saying that if I didn't agree to take you there, he would break up with me."

"So, you're saying my tribulation is Chen Yuan?" Zheng Jiao said belatedly.

After hearing her confession, Shi Yanxia smiled and said, "Considering your final honesty, I'll tell you the truth: Chen Yuan is not your destined partner."

“He will never marry you, nor will he be with you. He has always used you to his advantage. This time, in order to please Shen Lianchu, he did not hesitate to call you over and lure me out.”

“If something happens to me, Bai Nuannuan and Gu Yubai can both prove that you called me away, and when things happen, they will put the blame on you.”

"If I die, you'll rot in jail," Shi Yanxia whispered a warning.

Zheng Jiao chuckled softly, looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and whispered, "Yes, he threatened me just now, saying that if I didn't agree, he would have his boss sexually harass me when we got back."

“Our contract has a clause about accompanying guests for drinks, and he said that he would have to…” Zheng Jiao said, then gave a bitter smile.

She stepped forward and pulled Shi Yanxia back, saying, "Forget it, at worst I won't be a celebrity anymore. Being an ordinary person is fine too."

She pulled Shi Yanxia a few steps as she spoke, but Shi Yanxia then pried her hand away.

"Why go back? It's still early, I'll go take a look." Shi Yanxia said, turning around and walking in the direction Zheng Jiao had just indicated.

By the time Zheng Jiao realized what was happening, Shi Yanxia had already disappeared.

"Sister Shi!" Zheng Jiao cried out anxiously. She quickly caught up with Shi Yanxia, ​​only to find that she had disappeared.

She hurried back, only to find that Gu Yubai and Bai Nuannuan had followed her. She went up to them and said, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault."

"I think something bad is going to happen to Sister Shi," she said, recounting what had just happened.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yubai's handsome face instantly darkened. He said, "Chen Yuan asked you to bring her out, he's definitely up to something. Are you trying to kill her?"

"I'm sorry, I know I was wrong. Let's go there right now." Zheng Jiao said, and she ran quickly towards the sea.

Yan Xia walked briskly and quickly arrived at the beach.

Seeing a figure standing on the beach in the distance, she walked over and asked in a low voice, "Are you looking for me?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the man turn around and throw something at her face.

Shi Yanxia stood there stunned, her body swayed a few times, and then she fell to the sea with a "bang". The man strode forward, grabbed her arm, and dragged her into the sea.

With a few splashes, the waves rolled in, sweeping her figure into the sea and disappearing from his sight. Only after she was out of sight did he quickly walk back.
