He alone is sufficient for the country and the people.
His wife should not be kept in such a dangerous environment at all times.
He could not bear the thought of her going to such lengths to disguise herself as someone else and staying in that hotel every day to wait in boredom.
Ah Zhu waited outside for about five minutes before returning inside. When he saw the two people hugging, he laughed and said, “Changshu, you have a lot on your plate right now with Brother Jing. Go back. I will return Junhui to the Ding residence. She will now reside at the Ding residence. Right now, the Ding Residence is the safest place.”
Jiang Yao agreed as Lu Xingzhi was about to open his mouth to reject Ah Zhu. “Okay!”
Lu Xingzhi’s grip on Jiang Yao tightened after she responded. Even without looking up, she could see the contempt in his eyes.
Jiang Yao intuitively understood the source of Lu Xingzhi’s rage. Returning to the Ding residence at the time was akin to a sheep entering a tiger’s den.
Was there not a better saying? There could be no tiger without first entering a tiger’s den. Ah Zhu had been following Brother Jing for a long time. He might be able to provide her with more helpful information.
There has not been much information about Ah Da up until then. There was also that enigmatic figure who appeared out of nowhere.
Jiang Yao reasoned that if there was truly an accident, leaving through the secret passage should be sufficient to ensure her safety.
Even Ah Zhu was unaware of the secret passage. Brother Ding had left an escape route for himself.
When Lu Xingzhi parted ways with Jiang Yao at the hotel, his eyes were filled with the desire to hide Jiang Yao. Ah Zhu kept looking back, then grinned and teased the girl sitting quietly beside him.
“Take a look at your Brother Changshu’s hesitance.”
Ah Zhu grinned. “I really envy him at times.”
