Chapter 229 Being followed
Zhao Minna smiled, "I knew that Brother Haoyu and Sister Xiaoqiao treat me the best."
Since Zhao Minna was willing to work hard to get over it, there was no reason for them not to help her. When Li Shu kidnapped her that day, many media outlets photographed it, but fortunately, the incident was not mentioned again. Instead, it accidentally exposed Ling Xiao and their relationship, which was not a bad thing.
Let's just suppress that matter completely and put it behind us.
The next day, Ruan Haoyu asked Li Wei to start tailoring Zhao Minna and made a series of work plans to ensure her future exposure. He also formulated a CP plan for her and Ling Xiao, intending to make them a golden boy and a jade girl.
Ling Xiao naturally cooperated fully, and the two of them quickly got busy. This was Ruan Haoyu's plan. When they were busy, they would forget a lot of things and be able to get out of it faster.
As for Mu Xiaoqiao, Julie had already arranged her next work plan. She started to enter the big screen and shoot the new work of the famous director Wu Qian, which is also an epic masterpiece, "Icefield".
Ruan Haoyu has joined the cast of another TV series adapted from a big IP and plays the male lead. This means that the two will have to film in two different places. The two people who haven't been apart for a long time have to be separated all of a sudden, and both of them feel a little sad.
However, as an artist, flying back and forth to film is part of daily work and is not a big deal. Moreover, mobile phone video is convenient nowadays. At the very least, it is not difficult to fly back and forth to see each other.
However, this journey would take several more months, especially for Mu Xiaoqiao. The snow-capped mountains and glaciers they were going to this time were quite far away, so the two of them discussed that they would go and see Old Jing before leaving.
So that afternoon, after finishing work, the two drove to the stilt house on the beach.
On the way, Ruan Haoyu drove slowly. The two chatted as they walked. They watched a new episode of the show "Zheng Zheng Tie Han" yesterday. It was the episode where the group had been hungry for a day and were struggling over whether to eat raw beef. Mu Xiaoqiao asked Ruan Haoyu, "You already knew that the beef was ready to eat, why didn't you ask us to go eat some earlier? That way, I wouldn't have been awake all night because I was hungry."
Thinking about how hungry she felt that day, it was really uncomfortable. She had only been hungry for one day. Thinking about the famine she had encountered before when she traveled through time, she knew how painful it must have been for those people who starved to death. She felt some empathy for those people.
Thanks to today's society, everyone can have enough food to eat and warm clothes to wear.
Ruan Haoyu smiled, "How could I bear to let you go hungry? It was really late when I heard about it. The beef for the day had already been removed, so we could only wait until the next morning."
I guess no one slept well that night, and the boys were even worse off. They had to patrol on an empty stomach. Thinking back on that night, it was truly a night that was hard to bear.
"Okay, I forgive you." Mu Xiaoqiao joked and turned back to get the blanket on the back seat. The air conditioner was a little cold and she wanted to cover herself with it.
Turning her head, she saw a car following not far behind her, but she didn't pay much attention to it. Although there were few cars on this road, there were still some. It was normal to encounter one or two cars occasionally.
After fixing the blanket, she suddenly felt something was wrong and looked back involuntarily.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Ruan Haoyu saw her looking back frequently, so he asked.
Mu Xiaoqiao turned around and asked in confusion, "Why do I feel that the car behind me looks familiar? Have you seen it before?"
Ruan Haoyu looked out from the rearview mirror, took a closer look, and shook his head, "I haven't seen it."
"Am I overthinking?" Mu Xiaoqiao was not sure. After thinking for a while, he said, "Then do you remember how long this car has been following us?"
Ruan Haoyu was driving, so he had to check the rearview mirror from time to time. He recalled carefully and said, "It's been a while. It seems like it has been behind us since we left the city."
"Something's wrong. I must have seen this car somewhere before. Let me think."
Mu Xiaoqiao pondered for a while, and Ruan Haoyu deliberately slowed down. Sure enough, the car behind also slowed down. It seemed that it was really following them.
"I remember now, Chen Heng's Ruiyuan Real Estate. I saw this car when I went there with Qi Nanfeng last time."
Mu Xiaoqiao glanced in the rearview mirror and asked, "What is Chen Heng planning to do now?"
"No matter what he wants to do, it's not a good thing. I'll get rid of them first. Sit tight." After Ruan Haoyu finished speaking, he pushed hard with his feet, and the car suddenly shot out like an arrow.
The car following behind didn't react in time and was left far behind. They hurriedly accelerated to catch up.
Ruan Haoyu was very familiar with the terrain here. He quickly turned into a small road, came out of a village, and then entered another village.
The small fishing villages on the seaside are next to each other, and the houses are very densely packed. After a short while, the car was completely dizzy and could not find any trace of Ruan Haoyu and the others. The two men inside stopped the car and got out, jumping in anger.
A man took out his phone and said, "Mr. Chen, we lost him."
Ruiyuan Real Estate, Chen Heng put down his phone with a gloomy face. He didn't expect that Mu Xiaoqiao and Ruan Haoyu were so vigilant that they actually discovered his people and got rid of them. It seems that he needs to think of other ways.
He must get the secret of the Dragon Map.
Mu Xiaoqiao looked back and saw that the car finally disappeared. Then he sat down and praised, "I didn't expect you to be a good driver."
Ruan Haoyu looked unhappy, "Can you please believe in your husband? After all, I saved you so many times in my previous life. Don't always think of me as weak, okay?"
"Previous life?" Mu Xiaoqiao sensitively grasped the key words.
Ruan Haoyu realized that he had let something slip, and he coughed softly, saying, "I was saying that when we traveled through time together, didn't I save you?"
Mu Xiaoqiao's sixth sense told her that Ruan Haoyu had started lying again and he must be hiding something from her.
But since he was unwilling to say, Mu Xiaoqiao didn't ask too much. Even if she asked him now, he wouldn't tell her. She needed to find a suitable opportunity. As long as it had happened, the flaws would be exposed. She was not in a hurry.
Ruan Haoyu was feeling upset because he had said the wrong thing, so he stopped talking. The car fell silent for a moment, and the two of them were each thinking about their own things.
We soon arrived at the stilt house. As the sun was setting, the afterglow of the sunset was shining on the platform in front of the building. As soon as we got off the car, we saw Mr. Jing, who was sitting on a rattan chair, rocking, basking in the sun, and fanning himself with a palm-leaf fan. He looked so comfortable.
"Old Jing." Mu Xiaoqiao greeted from afar, and ran over with bags in his hands. Old Jing opened his eyes and smiled as if his wrinkled face was as big as an orange. "Xiaoqiao is here, and Ruan boy, why are you bringing so many things? How can I finish them all by myself? They will be taken away by Lao Wang next door."
Mu Xiaoqiao put the food on the table and said, "Old Wang next door actually came to steal your food? That won't do, Old Jing, these are all carefully selected by A Yu and I, specially for your health."
"Look at my house. There's nowhere to hide it. If Lao Wang comes and asks me for it, I'll be embarrassed to refuse. What do you think I should do?"
Old Jing spread his hands, looking helpless, which made Mu Xiaoqiao burst out laughing.
Ruan Haoyu came up and said, "I have a way to hide it so that he can never find it. Old Jing, you can hide these things in other time and space. Old Wang can never enter that door, but you can go through it at will. Isn't that enough?"
"Good idea." Mu Xiaoqiao agreed.
Old Jing tapped Ruan Haoyu's nose and said, "You two clever guys, do I have to do that? For these supplements, I have been traveling through time and space, just like strolling down the street."
"Who gave me this skill?" Ruan Haoyu said confidently and shamelessly.
Old Jing laughed and pulled the two of them to sit down. This place of his was really comfortable. With the sea breeze blowing, he could watch the tides rise and fall, and the clouds roll and unfold. It was simply a life like a god.
"Mr. Jing, how are you feeling recently? We will be away from Binjiang for a while, so please take good care of yourself. We will come back to see you when we are done." Mu Xiaoqiao reminded him. Mr. Jing's beard looked a lot whiter recently. Although it was not known whether such a talented person like him could live forever, Mu Xiaoqiao still cared about his health as if he were an ordinary old man.
Fortunately, Mr. Jing was always in good spirits. He laughed when he heard this. "Don't worry. I'm in good health. I'm waiting for you two to bring the children to see me."
