Chapter 19

Cheng Yuan said sternly: "You are mistaken, he is a private detective hired by me, and he is only responsible to me. This is different from Li Kejin's case!"

Wu Yuebai was overjoyed, and said angrily: "Why are you rich people so selfish!"

Cheng Yuan ignored her, poured a glass of wine and handed it over, saying, "Drink it! That way we won't be suspected when we go ashore."

Wu Yue was still angry, and said displeasedly: "Here comes this again, I won't drink it! I won't drink it this time!"

Cheng Yuan took the glass back and said indifferently: "If you don't drink it, I'll drink it. It's a pity to waste such a good wine! Remember to help me get off the boat! When the time comes, the expression must be in place, and the happier the better!" Drink it straight from the bottle.

Wu Yue glared at him, muttered and cursed: "Crazy!" She curled up on the sofa and ignored him.

When he returned to Jinchan Island, Cheng Yuan was already drunk, and he was clamoring to send Wu Yue back, but Wu Yue had no choice but to drag Cheng Yuan into her hotel room.As soon as Cheng Yuan entered, he threw himself on the bed.

Before Wu Yue could speak, Cheng Yuan jumped up again and rushed into the bathroom. After a sound of water, Cheng Yuan came back like an idiot, without even looking at Wu Yue, he fell back on the bed with ease.

Wu Yue shouted angrily: "Hey! Why don't you just send me back, you... you... why are you sleeping here?!"

Cheng Yuan struggled to open his eyes and looked at her for a while, then closed them again.

Wu Yue stood up angrily, slammed the pillow under Cheng Yuan's head, and cursed incoherently: "Can you stop messing around?! I've never seen you like this. You're just looking for a model. If you're in Beijing , I've already scratched your ears. It's so annoying..." After scolding, I felt still angry, and continued to scold: "Rogue! Bastard...pervert!
Cheng Yuan snored loudly, Wu Yue rolled his eyes at him, and added: "Turtle! Pig's head!"

Wu Yue walked around the room twice angrily, and had to hold back her anger and curl up on the sofa to sleep.

The next day, the second sister found out that Cheng Yuan and Wu Yue were in the same room, she couldn't believe it.

Pippi said: "Uncle drank too much on the boat yesterday, and slept in that small hotel when he came back! And, the worst thing is, he went to a lot of reporters..."

The second sister was so angry that her face turned green, and she said bitterly, "Take me there!"

Two bodyguards in black, one on the left and one on the right, pushed Cheng Yuan out, opened the back door of the car where the second sister was sitting, and forced him in.

Cheng Yuan came to his senses and wanted to say something, but the second sister rolled up a tube with a newspaper and beat him hard on the head non-stop, Cheng Yuan dodged in embarrassment.

Pippi watched gloatingly, smiling very brightly.

The reporters rushed out of the hotel, the second sister stopped beating, and said loudly to Pippi: "What are you doing here in a daze? Didn't you see the reporters coming?!"

The reporters had no choice but to take random photos of the car's buttocks.

The sun shone on Wu Yue, and when she woke up, she found herself sleeping on the bed, covered with Cheng Yuan's coat, which smelled of alcohol.Wu Yue pinched her nose and threw Cheng Yuan's coat to a corner, thought for a while, picked it up again, tidied it up and hung it up.

There was a knock on the door outside, and there seemed to be a lot of people whispering at the door.Wu Yue didn't know, so she got out of bed and opened the door sleepily. In an instant, the flash light dazzled her eyes. There were questions in English and Chinese at the same time, and countless microphones were stretched out in front of her mouth.

Wu Yue was stunned for a few seconds, and immediately understood what was going on, and quickly stopped them: "Stop taking pictures, stop taking pictures! I don't know what you are talking about." She quickly closed the door.

The plan for the past few days has been quite effective, and Cheng Yuan reads the newspaper in the office with satisfaction.

The eye-catching headline on the front page of the newspaper is "Heir of Cheng's Enterprise Carnival in the Streets", below is a photo of him and Wu Yue at the beach.

Suddenly a glass of water was splashed on his face, and the second sister said angrily, "Let's go! Why do you still have the face to sit here? Why don't you go back to America?"

Cheng Yuan wiped his face, a little embarrassed, and said with a wry smile: "I still have something to do."

The second sister said bitterly: "What a big deal? Isn't it just a marijuana case? Leave it to me, Uncle Qi, Pippi, and a lawyer. Who can help you! Why do you have to ruin yourself?" Woolen cloth?"

Cheng Yuan was stunned for a moment, and said with an unnatural expression: "You know everything..."

The second sister sneered and said, "I didn't believe you would like such a girl for a long time. You work sixteen hours a day in the United States, and you have only dated two girls. One is a Taiwanese girl, a postdoctoral fellow in electronic information, who is older than you Two years old, you dated five times, over a span of five months and three days, broke up on Christmas Day; the other..."

Cheng Yuan stood up suddenly, and shouted angrily: "Enough, follow me, investigate me, this is what I hate the most..."

The second sister said confidently: "Let me tell you, I also know what you like to eat in the United States, which restaurants you usually go to, what brand of coffee you drink, whose records you like to listen to, what clothes you wear in what season, whether you are fat or thin , your medical report is once a month, and you will call this office in time!" The second sister paused for a while, burst into tears, and said, choked up: "Do you know why Dad and I did this? Because we love you! But you Now you don’t believe me, you don’t believe your own sister!”

Cheng Yuan stood there stunned, the sudden family affection made him a little at a loss, he got up and hugged his sister into his arms: "Second sister, I'm sorry!"

The second sister said tearfully, "Tell me, A Yuan, what exactly do you want to do?"

Cheng Yuan said bitterly: "I just want to find out who is trying to frame me!"

The second sister was stunned, and the truth she didn't want to believe was told by Cheng Yuan.

twenty three.behind the scenes

In the reception room, Wu Yue and Li Kejin sat face to face, and they didn't speak for a long time.Li Kejin had a complicated expression, while Wu Yue felt a little guilty.

Li Kejin said dully: "The newly changed room has a TV, and I have seen all the news."

Wu Yue stood up anxiously and argued: "Ke Jin, don't think about it, those are not true. Everything I do is to save you, you have to believe me!"

Li Kejin said sadly: "To be honest, this makes me feel very incompetent. You might as well not save me."

Wu Yue said sadly: "Don't be like this, please, we are saving our lives now! If we keep the green mountains, we don't have to worry about running out of firewood! I only love you alone, otherwise, otherwise..."

Li Kejin took it over and said: "Otherwise, you would have returned to China long ago, right? I know I am your burden now, really Wu Yue, I really don't want you to do so much for me. If you really can't save me, go back to China , tell my mom that I didn't smoke marijuana, I was wronged."

Wu Yue said angrily: "What do you mean by that? Are you blaming me? I really have no choice but to do this, you have to understand me! Ke Jin!"

Li Kejin was very annoyed: "I know I should understand you, but...but I don't think this is a problem. I am a man, and I feel very low in self-esteem. I am very sorry for you! Let this pass quickly, I really suffer No more!"

Wu Yue held Li Kejin's hand and comforted: "It will pass, it will pass, don't worry, let's persevere!"

Li Kejin buried her head in Wu Yue's hands, feeling sad, Wu Yue's face was full of confidence, she believed that she would be able to rescue Li Kejin.

Wu Yue hid at the intersection and looked towards the hotel. A group of reporters were waiting at the door of the hotel. Wu Yue frowned and closed her eyes, leaning against the wall helplessly.

Suddenly a hand patted her shoulder, Wu Yue jumped up in fright, turned around and saw Cheng Yuan who was smiling.

Cheng Yuan gloated and said, "Can't I go back home?"

Wu Yue pouted: "It's not because of you!"

"I drank too much. It's not bad if there is no live broadcast." Cheng Yuan said leisurely, as if this matter had nothing to do with him from the beginning to the end.

Wu Yue said in embarrassment: "What should I do now? My boyfriend almost went crazy watching TV, I don't want to show my face to you again!"

Cheng Yuan leaned over, his mouth was almost touching Wu Yue's face, and he said casually, "What's the matter? Is he jealous?" Sometimes I feel that teasing this girl is a very happy thing.

Wu Yue pushed him away, and said angrily: "Go away! If you continue to be so glib, our agreement will be void!"

Cheng Yuan was pushed back a stagger, and threatened viciously: "Do you still want to save your boyfriend?!"

Wu Yue turned her face away and ignored him, threatening her with this every now and then, it was extremely hateful.

Cheng Yuan staggered towards the car and said, "Let's go, I'm here to pick you up, I've already found a place to live!"

Wu Yue followed and said reluctantly: "But all my things are in the hotel..."

"Let them get it!"

Wu Yue looked at the high-end sports car in front of her in surprise, and said embarrassingly, "Hey! How do you open this door?"

Cheng Yuan looked left and right, came over and quickly opened the car door for her, Wu Yue gave him a disdainful look, and whispered, "What's the big deal."

A sports car parked in front of a five-star hotel.

Wu Yue got out of the car and looked up at the hotel, surprised: "Five-star! Don't tell me, we live here."

Cheng Yuan replied irritably: "I have to tell you, we will live here!"

Cheng Yuan dragged Wu Yue into the hotel, followed closely by the bodyguards.Cheng Yuan pulled Wu Yue into his arms, Wu Yue struggled lightly with an unnatural expression.Cheng Yuan gave Wu Yue a demonstrative look, and Wu Yue obediently gave in.Walking to the elevator entrance, Cheng Yuan took the bag from the bodyguard and said, "Our room number is available at the front desk, so you don't have to go up there, and you don't need to pick us up at night!"

Cheng Yuan took the lead in the elevator, turned around and saw Wu Yue, still hesitant to go in, and pulled her in.

The elevator door closed, and the bodyguard called Pippi: "Mr. Cheng and Wu Yue are staying at the hotel!"

The elevator door opened again suddenly, and Cheng Yuan looked at the informant bodyguard mischievously: The bodyguard was startled, and quickly put away the phone.Cheng Yuan smiled and said, "Sorry, I pressed the wrong button!"

This time the bodyguard learned his lesson, and waited until the elevator went up to the fifth floor before continuing to report to the phone: "They booked...a room!"

Pippi took the phone and said to Uncle Seven: "Uncle and that Wu Yue have gone to the hotel again."

Uncle Qi said in disbelief: "I'm just wondering, how did the Cheng family produce such a real treasure? Is this what they call American style?"

Pippi didn't hang up the phone and said, "They said that uncle will spend the night there."

Uncle Qi said cheerfully: "A moment in the Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold! Then let's not disturb others! Let them come back!"

Pippi picked up the phone and said to the bodyguard: "Seventh Uncle told you to come back first!"

The bodyguards walked out of the hotel after receiving the order. Detective Li, who was resting in the lobby pretending to read a newspaper, looked up from the sofa and watched their backs disappear at the gate. He got up and walked calmly to the elevator, and went straight to Cheng Yuan's room.

"...Mr. Cheng, according to your description, you bought the ticket 10 minutes before departure, right?" Detective Li asked.

Cheng Yuan nodded and said: "Yes, I almost missed the boat at that time!"

Detective Li confirmed again: "You said that the ticket office at the pier sold you the last luxury cabin ticket, are you sure?"

"For sure! Because I remember very clearly, he said at the time that this luxurious cabin is left on the entire ship!"

Wu Yue interjected: "I can also testify that Mr. Cheng did say such things when he changed rooms. He said that when he bought the ferry ticket, only the luxury cabin was left."

Detective Li said mysteriously: "But according to the records I found, this luxury cruise ship has a total of 360 ticket seats. On the day of the incident, there were 330 three guests on board."

Cheng Yuan frowned, and Wu Yue counted from the side: "360, 330 three, still 27 short!"

"Yes, that means, when Mr. Cheng bought the tickets, there were still 27 empty seats waiting."

Cheng Yuan took it up and said, "This means that the ticket seller at the pier lied to me!"

"Because of this lie, you bought a ticket for the only luxury cabin on the ship, and that cabin just happened to contain drugs!"

Wu Yue exclaimed in disbelief: "My God, this is so complicated!"

Cheng Yuan asked in puzzlement, "Then why didn't the police notice this clue when they solved the case?"

Detective Li smiled and said: "That's because the police did not arrest you, but Miss Wu and her fiance. They didn't know what happened when you boarded the boat, so they couldn't provide the police with relevant clues. Now that Having found this clue, I think it may be the key to solving the case!"

Wu Yue stood up suddenly, with tears in her eyes. She excitedly held Detective Li's hand and said gratefully: "Savior, you are our savior! Thank you so much!" After she finished speaking, she turned and rushed out.

Cheng Yuan yelled inexplicably: "Wu Yue, you... are not good! She must have gone to call the police!" At the moment, Detective Li was still on the scene and chased him out.

Wu Yue was so excited that she didn't even sit in the car, and ran towards the police station as soon as she got out of the hotel.Cheng Yuan drove after her and shouted, "Where are you going?!"

Wu Yue said while running: "Go to the police station and save my boyfriend."

"No! You can't go to the police station yet, come up to me."

"I don't want to listen to you." Wu Yue shook her head and speeded up.

Cheng Yuan drove to a turn ahead and braked to stop her.Wu Yue looked around and was about to squeeze past her when Cheng Yuan stepped forward, picked her up and threw her into the car.

Wu Yue kicked and beat in the car: "Bastard! Let me go! You let me go!" Cheng Yuan stepped on the gas pedal and returned to the hotel.Wu Yue got out of the car, turned around and wanted to run again, Cheng Yuan was very annoyed, he caught up with her a few steps, carried her to the upstairs room, and threw her on the bed.Cheng Yuan looked around, picked up a roll of transparent glue and tore it with his teeth.

Wu Yue shouted in panic: "You... what are you doing?!"

Cheng Yuan didn't speak, and started to tie Wu Yue's hands behind his back. Wu Yue struggled violently and cursed loudly: "Let go of me, you rascal, scoundrel, scoundrel! Gangster! What are you going to do... let go of me... let go I……"

It took Cheng Yuan a lot of effort to tie Wu Yue up, but Wu Yue kept yelling and cursing.

Cheng Yuan took a breath, and suddenly shouted: "Stop making trouble, listen... I... say it!"

Wu Yue was taken aback, she was stunned seeing Cheng Yuan's ferocious look, and stopped shouting.

Cheng Yuan warned: "Listen clearly, I don't want to hurt you, I just want to stop your impulsive behavior! What we know now is only a clue to solve the case, and there is still a long way to go before the truth is revealed!"

Wu Yue said anxiously: "No, the case has been clarified! You were fooled by the conductor, and we were fooled by you...ah no, you were fooled by the deluxe cabin, and the deluxe cabin was tricked by the conductor. .As long as you tell the police clearly about these deceptions, Li Kejin will be punished!"

Cheng Yuan said: "But Li Kejin has already pleaded guilty!"

Wu Yue twisted her body in grief, and cried: "He pleaded guilty to save me. He let me out to protect one of the two, and let me help the police solve the case and clean up his innocence. Now there are obviously clues You still don’t let me go to the police, what kind of heart do you have! Why do you restrict my personal freedom!” After speaking, she even started to cry.

Cheng Yuan really had nothing to do with her, and said: "I really regret letting you hear my conversation with Detective Li. I returned to Jinchan Island from the United States, and the journey was full of dangers. In order to find out the truth one by one, I risked everything. Staying on Jinchan Island in danger of life, I tried my best to avoid being followed, and finally found a glimmer of hope. I don't want to ruin my hard work for so many days because of your impulse! I'm sorry, I wronged you to stay here for a day, you like this It can be regarded as continuing to fulfill our agreement. I'm going to Kuala Lumpur now! Don't worry, Li Kejin will definitely be rescued, and my promise to you will be fulfilled!" He gave Wu Yue a look and left the room.
