Chapter 1524 Waking Up

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Just as Xuan Sheng finished speaking, Jun Shiling's expression darkened. His eyes narrowed. "Watch your words."

Ever since Xia Wanyuan left, Xuan Sheng had no scruples in front of Jun Shiling. He did not like Jun Shiling in any way, so he naturally could not be bothered to talk nonsense with Jun Shiling now. "Why do you care so much?? You sent your wife out for three years, and you have the cheek to think that my words are not nice?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xuan Sheng strode up to Lu Li. "Are you stupid? It's so dangerous here."

Although Xuan Sheng was blaming Xia Wanyuan, his eyes were clearly worried and hid his longing.

Ever since Little Xiaxia was kidnapped, Lu Li had never returned to China. In more than three years, this was the first time Lu Li had seen Xuan Sheng.

Three years ago, Xuan Sheng was wanton and ostentatious. He always wore a black shirt with the corners outside, exuding a wild and unruly aura.

However, although the current Xuan Sheng did not look good, his temperament had become much more restrained. He was like a sheathed sword, making Lu Li feel a little strange.

In the past three years, Lu Li had also asked around about Xuan Sheng. The current Xuan Sheng had already taken over Glory World Corporation.

However, she knew that Xuan Sheng was still the same person.

Because the way he looked at Xia Wanyuan had never changed.

Lu Li smiled at Xuan Sheng. "Aren't you here too?"

She did not need to ask why Xuan Sheng had come too, because she knew very well that Xuan Sheng had come for Xia Wanyuan.

"You…" Xuan Sheng wanted to say something, but Lu Li had already held Jun Shiling's arm.

She nodded slightly at Xuan Sheng. "I'm sorry, we still have something to do, so we'll leave first."

With that, before Xuan Sheng could answer, Lu Li and Jun Shiling left.

Watching the two of them leave, Xuan Sheng was silent for a long time. In the end, he shook his head in self-deprecation. "Why bother? I don't care at all."

When they reached an empty corner, Lu Li put down her hand from Jun Shiling's arm. "I'm sorry, CEO Jun."

Jun Shiling looked at Lu Li thoughtfully. In the end, he only shook his head slightly. "It's nothing."

"When does the meeting start?" Lu Li looked at Jun Shiling. She had followed Xia Wanyuan for a long time, so every gaze was 80% similar to hers.

"Tomorrow. You can rest well first."

"Okay."

Actually, everyone knew that the so-called meeting was just an appetizer.

If they could not reach an agreement in the end, this place would become a battlefield.

After Lu Li left, Jun Shiling made a call.

"How's it going?"

"The ship has already begun to return to China. It's estimated that it will reach the coast of China the day after tomorrow morning."

"Mm, pay attention to protecting her safety."

"Yes."

After bidding farewell to Jun Shiling, Lu Li returned to her room. However, just as she reached the door, she saw Xuan Sheng standing at the door.

Lu Li clenched her fists slightly and walked over to Xuan Sheng. "Why are you here?"

Xuan Sheng looked into Lu Li's eyes. "I know I'll be rejected, but I still want to ask, are you willing to leave with me? I'll take you anywhere. Even if I die, I won't leave you alone."

Looking at the determined Xuan Sheng, Lu Li pursed her lips. "I…"

Before Lu Li could finish speaking, Xuan Sheng laughed at himself. "Actually, I know your answer too. I just…"

He was just indignant. Xuan Sheng shook his head. "I'm sorry, I seem to have disturbed you again."

Looking at the careful Xuan Sheng in front of her, Lu Li's heart ached, but on the surface, she did not show any emotions. "There's nothing to be sorry about. You have to live well."

"I've been living quite seriously in the past few years." Xuan Sheng forced a smile.

Actually, Jun Shiling was very sad about Xia Wanyuan's departure, and so was Xuan Sheng.

Furthermore, Jun Shiling could openly miss Xia Wanyuan, but Xuan Sheng did not have the right.

Previously, when Xia Wanyuan was around, Xuan Sheng always tortured his body. After Xia Wanyuan left, Xuan Sheng became quite healthy. He lived regularly and worked seriously.

Even Xuan Sheng's assistant was surprised by Xuan Sheng's change.

That was because Xuan Sheng remembered what Xia Wanyuan had told him. He was really living a good life and had never tortured himself again, because he wanted to wait for the day he saw Xia Wanyuan return.

Now that Xia Wanyuan had returned, in Xuan Sheng's opinion, Xia Wanyuan was clearly here to die. She clearly knew that the governor of the hidden continent was up to no good, but she had followed Jun Shiling over.

"I can tell." Lu Li looked at Xuan Sheng seriously.

In Xuan Sheng's opinion, Lu Li's emotions were more or less a little too cold. She was expressionless, as if he was an unimportant person standing in front of her.

However, what Xuan Sheng did not know was that at this moment, Lu Li looked calm on the surface, but her heart was already in turmoil because she was trying her best to suppress her feelings for Xuan Sheng.

She had many things to say to Xuan Sheng, but when she was about to say it, she remembered her identity at this moment.

She was Xia Wanyuan. Xia Wanyuan would not have any other feelings for Xuan Sheng.

In this place, there might be a spy somewhere. Everyone had worked so hard for today. She could not let so many people die with her.

In the end, Lu Li did not say anything. Instead, she smiled at Xuan Sheng. "That's good."

Seeing how distant Lu Li was, Xuan Sheng did not have the mood to continue pestering her. He lowered his eyes. "I don't have much else. How about this? If you need anything from me, just tell me. I won't hesitate."

"Okay." Xuan Sheng did not realize that the "Xia Wanyuan" in front of him was trembling slightly. "Goodbye."

"Goodbye."

Forever.

The sea was vast, and the staff were not in a hurry. As they chatted, they drove the ship. Suddenly, a muffled sound came from the cabin.

"Did you hear that?? There seems to be a sound. Could Madam be awake??"

"How is that possible? CEO Jun already instructed before he left that Madam won't wake up for a while. Have you forgotten??"

"No, I still have to go in and take a look. Otherwise, I'll be worried." With that, a staff member was about to enter the cabin to take a look.

However, at this moment, a group of dolphins suddenly swam over from not far away and attracted everyone's attention.

"Damn, there are so many dolphins. Hey, there are two white dolphins over there. They're so beautiful."

The dolphins' passage distracted everyone. Only when the dolphins gradually swam away did the staff remember the commotion in the cabin.

However, it was already time for breakfast. Everyone who had been guarding the entire night was already hungry.

"Forget it, it should be nothing. CEO Jun personally carried Madam in."

"That's right. Let's go eat."
