Chapter 396: Chapter 396 Long-Haired Lady (Part 1)
Splash.
Two people wearing hoods, masks, and diving suits with oxygen tanks surfaced from the water.
Then, they swam to the shore and climbed onto the rocks.
Removing their masks, they revealed their identities—Lin Fei and Liu Wei.
They watched as the yacht they were on made a big turn on the sea and headed towards Shencheng, with Jin Weiming’s yacht closely following.
Liu Wei smiled and said to Lin Fei, “It looks like they’ve fallen for it.”
Lin Fei had to admit that Liu Wei was indeed quite clever.
When Liu Wei discovered that Jin Weiming’s yacht was chasing them, she came up with the idea to quietly dive to the island and let the driver sail the yacht to divert Jin Weiming and his team.
Although Lin Fei repeatedly told Liu Wei that he wasn’t afraid of Jin Weiming, Liu Wei was still very worried.
Eventually, Lin Fei had to comply with Liu Wei’s plan, don the diving equipment from the yacht, and they both quietly entered the water when the yacht was about a hundred meters from Beauty Island.
Sitting on the rocks, Lin Fei watched the two yachts sail away, knowing that Jin Weiming and his team wouldn’t bother him and Liu Wei again.
“Liu Wei, what should we do next?” Lin Fei asked Liu Wei.
“Let’s go fishing!” Liu Wei had lost interest in surfing after the commotion caused by Jin Weiming and his team.
She removed her hood, tank, and diving suit.
Lin Fei also took off his diving gear and nodded at her, “Hmm, fishing sounds good.”
Then, Liu Wei took out her phone from her pocket and dialed a number.
“Liu Wu, bring two fishing rods to the west side of Beauty Island shore.”
“Yes, Miss.” A man’s voice came from the phone.
Liu Wei hung up the phone and explained to Lin Fei, “Our Liu family has a vacation villa on this island, and Liu Wu is the villa’s caretaker.”
Lin Fei thought to himself: This Liu Wei, with yachts and vacation villas, apparently comes from an incredibly wealthy family.
However, Lin Fei didn’t inquire further, as they were just casual acquaintances meeting by chance to fish, enjoy the scenery, and then part ways.
Moreover, Lin Fei was familiar with wealthy heirs and heiresses, so he was used to their presence.
In about ten minutes, a black Mercedes drove up to a road around the island, less than a dozen meters away from Lin Fei and Liu Wei.
A middle-aged man, around forty, with a suit and tie, slightly chubby, got out of the car, fetched two fishing rods and a couple of small buckets, and walked over.
“Miss, here are the fishing supplies you requested.” The middle-aged man said with a respectful smile.
This middle-aged man was Liu Wu, the caretaker of the Liu family’s vacation villa on Beauty Island.
“Put them down,” Liu Wei said calmly.
Liu Wu placed the fishing rods and small buckets down and did not leave but stood respectfully aside.
Liu Wei looked at him and said, “We don’t need your help here; you can go back now.”
Liu Wu nodded in agreement, “Miss, call me if you need anything.”
After saying that, Liu Wu headed back to the road, got into the Mercedes, and drove away.
Liu Wei and Lin Fei baited the hooks and cast them into the sea.
The two of them sat on the rocks and began fishing.
Meanwhile, on a beach less than a kilometer away from Lin Fei and Liu Wei, Zheng Yutong and Xiao Ling got off a yacht and had it leave.
After arriving on Beauty Island, Zheng Yutong finally relaxed.
At this moment, Zheng Yutong realized that Xiao Ling was holding her hand. She immediately frowned and said to Xiao Ling, “Why are you holding my hand?”
Then, Zheng Yutong quickly withdrew her hand from Xiao Ling’s grasp.
Xiao Ling said, “Yutong, it seems like you were the one who held my hand first…”
Zheng Yutong recalled that on the golden beach of the Capital City Hotel, when she noticed Liu Xuan had someone following her, she quickly grabbed Xiao Ling and left…
But how could Zheng Yutong admit it, so she immediately said, “You were obviously the one who held my hand first!”
Xiao Ling was taken aback: Is that even possible?
However, he quickly smiled, nodded, and said, “Yes, yes, I held your hand first.”
Even if Xiao Ling was a bit dense, he knew that women didn’t like being perceived as too forward, as it made them feel like they lose face.
Zheng Yutong pouted and said, “That’s more like it.”
Then, the two of them began walking along the beach.
“Yutong, can you tell me who this Liu Xuan is?” Xiao Ling asked Zheng Yutong.
Zheng Yutong said, “Liu Xuan is the eldest heir of the Liu family, one of the Six Great Families in the Capital City. The Liu family and our Zheng family have known each other for generations.
Our families have a lot of business collaborations, and the elders hope that Liu Xuan and I can form a marriage alliance.”
Xiao Ling thought to himself: So this Liu Xuan is the eldest heir of the Liu family, one of the Six Great Families in the Capital City.
He’s certainly a formidable rival.
Moreover, both families hope to form a marriage alliance between Zheng Yutong and Liu Xuan.
Xiao Ling suddenly thought of something and asked Zheng Yutong, “Is your family the Zheng family, the wealthiest in Shencheng?”
Zheng Yutong nodded to Xiao Ling.
Then Zheng Yutong frowned slightly and said to Xiao Ling, “Xiao Ling, today we’re on a date here at Beauty Island to have fun for the day, but starting tomorrow, please don’t come looking for me.”
Xiao Ling asked puzzled, “Why?”
Zheng Yutong said, “I’m afraid that pursuing me will bring you a lot of trouble.”
Xiao Ling said, “I’m not afraid. Even if Liu Xuan is the eldest heir of an illustrious family from the Capital City, I’m not afraid.”
Zheng Yutong was touched by Xiao Ling’s fearless eyes.
At this moment, a yacht sailed in from the sea. As it docked, four tall men in suits and a graceful long-haired woman disembarked.
“Xiao Ling!” As soon as the long-haired woman saw Xiao Ling, her eyes glistened with tears, and she ran towards him, full of emotion.
Xiao Ling frowned, looking at this long-haired woman, and said, “Miss, you must have mistaken me for someone else?”
Zheng Yutong also showed a puzzled expression on her face.
The long-haired woman let her tears fall, covering her mouth as she sobbed, “Xiao Ling, have you stopped loving me? You said we would get engaged as soon as the summer break began.
Yesterday, I waited for you at the hotel we agreed on all day, only to hear that you flew to Shencheng. My heart is in so much pain.
I came to Shencheng, hoping you would change your mind.”
Xiao Ling was sure that before today, he had never met this long-haired woman.
As for the engagement planned for summer, it was all fabricated.
“Have you had enough of this act? Who sent you?” Xiao Ling’s eyes turned serious as he asked this long-haired woman.
“Xiao Ling, are you saying I’m acting? Have you forgotten how much I loved you? Come back with me to Huadu and get engaged!” The long-haired woman finished, reaching to grab Xiao Ling’s arm, trying to pull him away.
Xiao Ling could no longer tolerate this woman’s act, feeling anger swell in him, and forcefully pulled his arm free, pushing the long-haired woman away.
The long-haired woman immediately fell to the sand, crying loudly, “Xiao Ling, not only did you abandon me, but you also hit me. You’re heartless!”
