Chapter 228 - Return to Pearl River
Chapter 228: Return to Pearl River
On the other side of the world, at Vietnam’s PH port, the ship crew mate hid themselves nicely. As the ship entered the strait, there was gunfire. People bustled about and the hull of the ship shook from explosions.
A man’s face appeared in the swaying light. He cursed at a shivering man. “What is the meaning of this? Didn’t you say that there would only be a dozen of people? So how do you explain this?”
The man who was scolded was actually the lackey of Mo Xiao’s lead kidnapper. Quan Yu had someone pretend to be the leader and revealed a set of new information to the messenger. Everything was within Quan Yu’s control.
Navarre, the angry man charged out like a hungry beast. When he reached the deck, around 40 of his brothers were already injured or dead. Only half of his crew remained. Navarre had crossed sword with Lin Qi before. The old man was good but he had never used underhanded tactic like spying. This meant that someone else must have been involved in this trap. Navarre gritted his teeth and picked up his gun. He shot freely at the shadows on the dock. Screams echoed in response.
Navarre was in deep regret. He shouldn’t have accepted this business. According to the original plan, he would have met up with the kidnappers at sea to gather their forces. But all of a sudden, the kidnappers said that they had received a new order, they needed to kidnap someone for a woman. And now they had even sent a traitor onto Navarre’s ship.
Navarre grabbed the messenger, shot him in the face and dropped him into the ocean. Navarre stepped over the bodies of his fallen brothers and shot at the pier. When the ship slowly moved towards the dock, Navarre finally realized he had walked squarely into a trap. There were not only the local police but also Lin Qi’s soldiers!
Navarre took a deep breath. He weaved through the bullet rain but suddenly a bright light exploded before him. His world brightened and he collapsed. He had fought Lin Qi for half his life and he had never failed. He had been captured before but he was always released in the end.
But this time, he had misplaced his trust and it was over for him!
…
“Ha ha, Young Brother Quan, you sure know your way around the battlefield. I finally has this kid in my custody, my brothers can finally rest in peace.” Lin Qi was very happy when he heard the news that Navarre had been caught. Lin Qi had managed to catch Navarre many times before but Navarre always had the time to dump all the drugs he ferried into the ocean. So in the end, Navarre would be released due to lack of evidence.
But today it was different, he had help from Quan Yu. Quan Yu needed Lin Qi’s help to move some guns into the country and in return, Lin Qi wanted Quan Yu to help him capture Navarre. That was the terms of their cooperation.
Even though the kidnapping of Mo Xiao was unexpected, everything was solved in the end. Quan Yu even helped root out the traitor by his side.
On the airplane, Lin Qi thought about the things Quan Yu told him. Flower Appraisal huh? He hadn’t heard that name in a long time already. The young generation might not recognize them but when he was young, his grandfather always brought them up.
…
When Mo Li returned to Pearl River, Jiang Yao was ready to welcome Mo Li home. However Mo Li didn’t have any intention to go home, instead she rushed to the hospital as soon as she got off the plane.
Mo Zheng heaved a sigh of relief after knowing that Mo Li had returned safely. He was worried when Mo Li went on that border mission. Now that she was back home… Mo Zheng promised that he would work hard to get along better with her.
Seeing the disappointment on Jiang Yao and Mo Zheng’s faces, Qiao Qing didn’t know what to say. The past week was glorious for her. Drivers came to pick her up daily, sometimes Jiang Yao even came to pick her up in person. But now that Mo Li had returned, all these good things would come to an end.
Mo Li rushed to the hospital because she wanted to check up on Mo Xiao. However, when she arrived, Lu Xuan approached her with another important news. Mo Li was needed elsewhere so she had to call Mo Yun to come to the hospital.
“You’re telling me this is Ol’ Two?” Seeing his younger brother lying in bed, Mo Yun’s fists clenched. As the eldest brother, his responsibility was to take care of his siblings.
