"What are you thinking about?" Zhu Yunzhi smiled, looking at the flustered Li Rui.
Li Rui quickly calmed himself and turned around slowly, saying, "It's nothing."
Li Rui did not expect Zhu Yunzhi to pop up at this moment, feeling quite helpless. The clouds drifted in the sky, creating a beautiful scene.
"Have you come up with any solutions yet?" Zhu Yunzhi asked with a questioning expression, as if interrogating Li Rui. Zhu Yunzhi had been following Li Rui for a while now and had already endured quite a bit; he also had his limits.
The gentle breeze lifted Li Rui's sleeves. "Let's wait and see," Li Rui said calmly, his thin lips looking handsome between his sharp brows and bright eyes.
Then Li Rui went back to prepare for some rest. He thought about how he had exercised for a long time last night, and now it was time for a good sleep to let his body recover.
Only Zhu Yunzhi remained in place, looking helpless. When would the opportunity that Li Rui mentioned appear? With a long sigh, he turned and returned to his own room.
Li Rui lay quietly on the bed, enjoying the wonderful feeling of lying down when he suddenly heard faint footsteps outside the door, causing him to open his eyes wide and lose all sleepiness.
A loud roar from outside startled him.
A fierce-looking person came in, followed by a large group of people.
The door was pushed open, and Li Rui really disliked it when others made a ruckus in his room.
Looking at the fierce-looking person, Li Rui smiled slightly and quietly waited for them to provide an explanation.
"By order from above, we are searching everyone's rooms without exception, no matter who it is!"
Li Rui felt helpless and stood up. This group of intruders disturbed his sleep and put him in a bad mood. However, since he learned that this was an order from above, he naturally did not dare to disobey. After all, he was just a Captain. Although he had the strength to defeat these people effortlessly, Li Rui chose to endure instead.
A group of people dressed in black entered, their movements trained and precise. They looked at Li Rui with an awkward smile, appearing surprisingly weak, yet their senses were as sharp as a dog's.
Li Rui thought to himself that it might be due to the sudden strict inspections from above; they probably suspected there was an insider. However, he maintained his composure.
Then, one soldier went directly to Li Rui's room and pulled out a painting from his pocket.
As it slowly unfolded, Li Rui saw the face depicted on it—his own appearance after disguise.
"Excuse me, Captain, have you seen this person?" The man had no specific identity, so he spoke politely.
Li Rui secretly chuckled but did not show it on his face. He shook his head with a smile.
"How could I possibly know this person?" He waved his hand, signaling them to leave.
The room was searched thoroughly, and nothing unusual was found—at least that was what Li Rui observed.
Outside the door, a voice reported.
"Report to Skull: no unusual findings!" one soldier said seriously.
"Report. I also found nothing unusual!" another shook his head.
A nearby attendant was perceptive; in the heat of the moment, he brewed a cup of tea and cheerfully handed it to the Boss while fanning him vigorously.
Upon hearing this news, the Boss, who initially intended to sip the tea and praise it, suddenly seemed angry. He slammed the cup onto the ground, and the sound of shattering ceramic echoed sharply, creating a tense atmosphere in the surroundings.
"Hmph, how could you not find anything after searching all morning? What am I supposed to tell the higher-ups?" The roar made everyone too afraid to speak.
Clearly, the Boss was angry. Li Rui listened quietly, feeling secretly pleased; these people were truly ridiculous.
Then the Boss continued, "You all need to pay attention. A big transaction is coming soon, so be alert. We need to strengthen our defenses. If you notice anything suspicious, report it to me immediately!"
The hoarse voice fell silent. Hearing this news, Li Rui was overjoyed.
This was the opportunity he had been waiting for. Just this morning, Zhu Yunzhi had been questioning when the chance would come, and now it had arrived.
The Boss then ordered, "Continue moving forward and search the other rooms!"
With the sound of sparse footsteps, the group left. Li Rui let out a long sigh.
Such significant news naturally kept Li Rui awake, and he immediately got up to find Zhu Yunzhi to share the information. However, on his way, he encountered Hui Fen, who was picking flowers. Her fair skin basked in the sunlight, creating a very pleasant scene. Upon seeing Li Rui, her face flushed.
"Li Rui, big brother," Hui Fen called softly with her head down.
"What are you doing here?" Li Rui asked with a hint of warmth in his gaze; their relationship had grown somewhat closer since yesterday.
"I'm picking flowers," Hui Fen replied casually.
"By the way, does it still hurt from yesterday?" Li Rui asked with concern. Hui Fen's face turned shy as she fell silent for a moment before nodding.
After all, it was Hui Fen's first time, and they had spent an entire night together. Although she had experienced the pleasures of being a woman, there was still some pain involved.
Li Rui immediately grasped Hui Fen's hand.
"Hui Fen, don't worry, I will take responsibility for you." At this moment, Li Rui's gaze was filled with a hint of tenderness; Hui Fen from years ago was like his own beloved daughter.
Hui Fen was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, her face radiating happiness as she lowered her head shyly.
Li Rui then said, "You go ahead and be busy; I have other matters to attend to." He turned and left, leaving Hui Fen reluctant to part.
After Li Rui left, he went straight to Zhu Yunzhi's room. At that moment, Zhu Yunzhi was playfully splashing water in a pond.
As soon as Li Rui arrived, Zhu Yunzhi sprang up as if energized and said, "What brings you here?"
Li Rui smiled slightly. "Did you not ask me this morning where the opportunity lies?"
Zhu Yunzhi nodded eagerly; he was naturally very keen to know. Did Li Rui come personally because the opportunity had arrived?
In fact, Zhu Yunzhi's guess turned out to be correct.
