Chapter 180: The Secrets Hidden in Memory (11)


Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations


After they got off the plane, Lu Jia’er wanted to follow Colin to find out his true intention, only to be stopped by Jin Xiangdong.


Lu Jia’er asked Jin Xiangdong, “Why aren’t we following him?”


Jin Xiangdong turned around to look into her eyes. “If he follows us here, then I believe he has exceptionally good counterintelligence. Tracking him will get us exposed.”


Hearing this, Lu Jia’er nodded in agreement. “You are right. Then where should we go now?”


Jin Xiangdong said, “My place.”


“Your place?” Lu Jia’er stared at him.


When they were on the plane, Jin Xiangdong said something rather abruptly: going to Boston to meet his parents. Lu Jia’er had thought that Jin Xiangdong was only joking. It turned out that he was telling the truth.


However, since the situation with Su Han was still unclear, while she wanted to pay a visit to her boyfriend’s father, Academician Jin Shengping, she would have to pick another time. “Let’s go to the destination given by the coordinates. Besides, I am afraid that we will drag your father into danger if we go to your home at this exact moment.”


Jin Xiangdong said, slowly, “The location given by the coordinates is my home!”


Lu Jia’er was surprised. “What?”


Lu Jia’er stared at him. No wonder after she woke up, she sensed there was something strange with Jin Xiangdong. Back then, she thought that inside, he was shocked by the soul-stirring car accident, even if he was physically fine.


But she did not know that something was wrong with him because the location indicated by the coordinates were his home.


As a matter of fact, this was something Jin Xiangdong was scratching his head about. After they fled from the car accident, he ran the coordinates. He almost jumped out of his skin when finding out that the coordinates were for his home in the States.


Jin Xiangdong was confused. “Why would Ian leave the address of my home?”


Lu Jia’er contemplated it for a while. “The digits cannot be generated out of nowhere since this note was left for me by Ian on purpose. Maybe, there are clues at your home?”


As soon as she uttered those words, Lu Jia’er shouted, “Oh shoot, if that is your house, then Colin will be there as well!”


However, Jin Xiangdong shook his head.


Lu Jia’er was baffled. Jin Xiangdong grinned. “He will not find the place.”


Lu Jia’er was still puzzled as she looked at him. “What are you saying?”


Jin Xiangdong answered, “The digits you gave him are the wrong ones.”


Lu Jia’er squinted. “Did you swap my note?”


“No!” Jin Xiangdong said.


“Then what is it?” Lu Jia’er was all the more puzzled.


“There was a secret code set up in that string of digits Ian left.” Jin Xiangdong explained.


Lu Jia’er hurried to take out the note Ian left for her. Upon closer review, she understood what the code Jin Xiangdong mentioned referred to.


People that were not familiar with Ian’s handwriting would not be likely to detect this code. Lu Jia’er asked again, “How did you notice?”


“I investigated him. I saw a picture of him in college. He was solving a math problem, and this is not how he writes the number 9!” Jin Xiangdong made it clear for her.


Not everyone could notice such details. How powerful his memory must be. The reason that Lu Jia’er could pick this up was because her writing habits were identical to Ian’s and as a matter of fact, Ian was the one teaching her how to write in this way hand in hand.


Lu Jia’er sighed. “I have been reckless!”


As for the coordinate, in spite of all the confusion and questions, Jin Xiangdong said, “There is no time to lose. Let’s go!”


Cambridge.


Cambridge was a university town worth of its name. Of course, this Cambridge was not the one in the UK.


It laid across the Charles river from downtown Boston and is home to two world-famous universities, Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The two schools had produced 130 Nobel laureates out of 780, a record that scientists predict will never be broken. So not only had it become the world’s model for higher education and research, the town was also famous abroad, and had become a mecca for students from all over the world.


The town was not a large place but because of the two famous universities, the sense of academia filled even the air.


“Will we be mistaken for thieves if we show up to your home like this?” Lu Jia’er, who was seated in the passenger’s side seat, turned slightly to voice her questions to Jin Xiangdong.


Jin Xiangdong looked at her and smiled. “It is possible.”


“Then should we tear off the disguises?” Lu Jia’er asked.


“I want to disguise myself as my father. It will be safer!” Jin Xiangdong mentioned.


“Your father?” Lu Jia’er opened her eyes wider.


“Who else?” Jin Xiangdong laughed.


Lu Jia’er agreed with his idea after some thoughts. “Then what about me?”


Jin Xiangdong smiled and held her hand. “Our nanny!”


Jin Xiangdong, who was disguised as Jin Shengping, and Lu Jia’er, who was disguised as the male assistant of Jin Shengping, went to the place where Jin Xiangping had grown up—the Jin residence.


It was a two-story villa surrounded by greenery. The garden featured bouquets of flowers and piles of brocades, full of vigor. The owner must have exerted great effort to take care of the garden.


Jin Xiangdong showed Lu Jia’er into the house. Nobody was around. It was quiet.


Lu Jia’er was wearing black suit. She looked around the place. The style of decoration of Jin residence was not sweet and the furniture was old-fashioned, but the residence was clean.


Looking at the chessboard on the table, Lu Jia’er arrived at a conclusion quickly. “Is your father living here alone?”


“Yes, my sister moved out a long time ago. She only comes back occasionally.” Jin Xiangdong said.


Lu Jia’er nodded without giving any comment. Then, she saw a family portrait hung on the wall.


It was a family portrait of four, Jin Shengping and his wife and their two children, who must be the young Jin Xiangdong and his sister—Jin Xianglan.


In the picture, Jin Xiangdong was still a teenager. He wore a sense of calmness on his immature face, one that did not suit his age.


Jin Xiangdong poured two glasses of water and stepped next to her. “My mom and sister.” He explained.


“Both your mom and your sister are stunning.” Lu Jia’er took over the glass and turned to the family portrait again, giving her compliment.


“What about me?” Jin Xiangdong was looking at the family portrait as well.


“You…” Lu Jia’er turned to him and snickered.


Jin Xiangdong could tell that she was not going to compliment him judging by the looks on her face.


As he expected, Lu Jia’er’s answer was, “Have the ambiance of an elder!”


Jin Xiangdong raised his eyebrows. “What?”


Lu Jia’er changed her answer at once, “Nothing screws you harder than time!”


As she finished her words, Jin Xiangdong put his hand over her slim waist and moved his head closer to her, “I didn’t get that. Try saying that again!”


His voice was filled with threat.


Lu Jia’er looked at Jin Xiangdong who was so close to her. His face was Jin Shengping’s face and her face was Dong, the male assistant’s face. That being said, they were familiar with each other’s eyes and looks. At the moment, tenderness was rising in the depth of his eyes and in her eyes, was some naughty intention.


Them hugging like this was quite weird. Lu Jia’er could not stop herself from saying, “Don’t you think it’s awkward to hug me when I have the face of a man?”


“It is awkward indeed!” Jin Xiangdong said.


Lu Jia’er thought he would let her go and she blinked her bright eyes. However, the next second, she saw Jin Xiangdong’s lips pressing on hers.


Jin Xiangdong’s action, to Lu Jia’er, was naughty pleasure.


Luckily, Lu Jia’er moved fast. She stopped Jin Xiangdong’s lips with her hand, so he failed to kiss her.


Right at that moment, they heard things falling onto the ground outside the door.


Hearing this, they looked around, only to see a Filipino maid in her forties stunned to see them standing together so intimately.


Just her looks were enough to tell them that the Filipino maid had misunderstood them. Before Jin Xiangdong had said anything, Lu Jia’er had left his embrace and walked to the Filipino maid. Lu Jia’er looked into her eyes for a few seconds to hypnotize the maid.


Then, the Filipino maid closed her eyes. Lu Jia’er supported the maid with her arms and said to Jin Xiangdong, “Come and help!”


Jin Xiangdong hurried over and helped the Filipino sit on the couch.


Lu Jia’er looked at the Filipino maid and then threw a glance to Jin Xiangdong, “That naughty act of yours can be misunderstood! Be careful! Your father will discipline you when he finds out.”


Jin Xiangdong grinned, “With you here, no misunderstanding can last!”


Lu Jia’er glared at him, “I can erase her memory with hypnosis. But I really cannot accept you kissing me with this face! Unless… are you hiding something from me?”


Jin Xiangdong’s smile grew deeper. “I am not interested in men.” He claimed.


Lu Jia’er joked with him. “You don’t say. Look at what you did just now!”
