Mei Shu didn’t take any further action that night.
She and Jiang Hai confirmed that none of the rooms they had searched matched the angle in the photo.
Jiang Hai asked over the phone, “Miss Mei, should we finish searching the remaining rooms tomorrow?”
Mei Shu replied, “I think the location where the photo was taken might not be here. Also, I have a feeling that Zhou Lin has been following me all along, or in other words, he wants to know my whereabouts at all times.”
“Do you think he’s surveilling you?” Jiang Hai’s expression turned serious. “Should I arrest him now and interrogate him to see what his purpose is?”
“No, let’s not spook the snake.” Mei Shu said, “Let’s wait until we meet Sister Li.”
“Okay.” Jiang Hai readily agreed, “But are you really not planning to search the remaining rooms?”
Mei Shu shook her head, then remembered she was on the phone and Jiang Hai couldn’t see her. She just made a vague “hmm” sound and said, “Based on the angles of the rooms we searched earlier, the other rooms probably don’t have the orientation we’re looking for. Let’s not waste time. We’ll change to another hotel tomorrow.”
“Alright, Miss Mei. Rest early tonight. Goodnight.” Jiang Hai finished speaking and hung up the phone because he knew his boss still had questions for him.
Lu Si would never let Mei Shu investigate so far away alone.
Even if Jiang Hai was by her side now, it was hard to guarantee that she would not fall into danger.
So, he ordered Jiang Hai to call him every night and report Mei Shu’s daily activities and the people they encountered.
It’s not that he didn’t want to ask Mei Shu directly, but he knew her too well. He knew she might deliberately hide any dangers encountered during the day to prevent him from worrying.
“Sorry, the number you have dialed is currently busy.”
Busy again.
Mei Shu threw her phone onto the bed in annoyance.
She took her change of clothes and went into the bathroom to shower.
When she came out, Lu Si had called her over thirty times.
Mei Shu rolled her eyes and called him back. As soon as she answered, she couldn’t help but complain, “Why did you make so many calls in one go? You’ve almost drained my phone battery.”
Lu Si seemed relieved, his voice full of concern, “I was worried you might be in danger.”
Mei Shu, drying her hair, jokingly said, “Don’t worry. I’m resting in a luxury suite in one of the world’s top hotels now. What could possibly happen?”
Lu Si chuckled at her teasing, finally sounding a bit lighter, “As long as you’re safe, I can rest assured. Although Wendith seems prosperous on the surface, it’s not as safe as our country. You still need to be careful.”
Mei Shu hung the damp towel, then collapsed onto the warm and soft bed, teasing him, “Stop worrying about me. What about you? You must have been busy today, right? Why are you still calling so late?”
Lu Si chuckled softly, “Are you jealous, Shu’er?”
Mei Shu wished she could make a contemptuous gesture at him, “I am not! I’m just concerned about you.”
“Alright, alright.” Lu Si indulged her, “I’m fine too. Don’t worry. When I’m done with work, I’ll come to see you right away.”
“Okay.” Mei Shu’s thoughts turned, suddenly asking, “How much do you know about this Zhou Lin person?”
Lu Si paused for a moment, then answered truthfully, “Scheming, cunning, and quite the playboy. Not a good person. Stay away from him.”
Mei Shu couldn’t help but chuckle, “That’s a very honest and accurate evaluation.”
Lu Si also laughed, “You asked, my dear, so I must tell you everything.”
Mei Shu blushed a bit, muttering softly, “Who’s your dear? How come you’ve become so slick-tongued after a trip to Haicheng? Have you also met someone like Zhou Lin who’s turned you bad?”
Lu Si’s joy made his eyes crescent-shaped, “Don’t worry, I’ve seen all kinds of people. If I were to turn bad, I would have done it long ago. But I always remember that I’ve already had a girlfriend. Apart from you, no one else can come close to me.”
“Good.” Mei Shu snorted lightly, satisfied, “Let’s leave it at that. You should rest early too. We’ll contact each other tomorrow.”
“Okay, goodnight.” After Lu Si hung up the phone, he placed it aside, looking very happy.
Jiang He silently handed him a stack of documents, “Master Si, are you really going to finish all these tasks today?” 𝑓𝓻ℯ𝑒𝑤𝘦𝑏𝑛ℴ𝓋ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝓸𝓂
“Yes.” Lu Si’s voice was calm, “Wendith is not safe. Zhou Lin seems to have a purpose in approaching Shu’er. I don’t want to wait a moment longer. Arrange it so that we can compress the work of this week into three days, then book the tickets. We’ll fly directly to Wendith to meet them.”
“What? Three days?” Jiang Hai was shocked beyond words..
