Chapter 104: I’ve Found Queen

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

When Jiang Yining finished clearing the messages in her inbox, she saw that Gu Zhanqing had sent her messages on QQ.

“I know that you’re in A-City. Don’t make Ah Ron worry. Come home quickly.”

“Jiang Yining, when will you stop being willful and be as sensible as Ah Rou and not let people worry about you?”

“You stubborn mule. Your dearly departed mother will regret giving birth to you if she sees you like this. Come home immediately, or you can forget about setting foot in Gu residence again!”

Jiang Yining’s lips twitched, and a mocking smile appeared on her cold face.

Right…

She would regret giving birth to her…

Gu Zhanqing had probably been hoping that her mother had only given birth to Jiang Rou.

He hated her every minute of their twenty over years together.

Sometimes, she even wondered what heinous things she had done to make him hate her so much.

Once, she even hated herself and gave up on herself.

But she had made peace with it now.

So what if Gu Zhanqing didn’t like her?

There were plenty of people in this world who liked her.

Jiang Yining closed her QQand logged out of the dark web.

She put her cap and mask on and was about to leave the cafe when a slender hand rested on her shoulder.

Jiang Yining turned her head and looked behind her.

“Lu Zhi?”

Her eyes were filled with surprise.

“Didn’t I tell you not to visit internet cafes? Why are you here?” Lu Zhi questioned coldly.

“Well, I was helping my friend with something, and 1 needed the internet.” Jiang Yining replied nonchalantly. “Why are you here at an internet cafe? Someone with your status shouldn’t be here, right?”

“I’m looking for someone.”

Lu Zhi looked around.

Jiang Yining asked curiously, “Who is it? Looking at how nervous you are, are you looking for your sweetheart?”

“What a loose tongue you have.” Lu Zhi scolded with a frown.

Jiang Yining snorted.

Lu Zhi then asked, “You know computers, right? Do you know Queen?”

Jiang Yining’s heart skipped a beat when she heard that. She forced herself to be calm and said, “I’ve heard of her. You’re looking for her? Do you need her help? I’m just as good as her, okay? Why don’t you consider me?”

“You are not,” Lu Zhi replied in a clear voice.

“Don’t underestimate me. My computer skills are top-notch. Didn’t I show you my skills last time? Are you still doubting me?”

“I don’t doubt you, but your other abilities are not as good as Queen’s.”

“Oh, so you think so highly of her.” Jiang Yining chuckled.

But she still didn’t say that she was Queen.

She couldn’t just reveal her identity.

Lin Yan’s disappearance had something to do with Lu Beicheng, and she was Lin Yan’s good friend…

It was all too strange.

If Lu Zhi’s motive for finding her was ill-intentioned, she would only lose the opportunity to continue investigating Lin Yan’s whereabouts.

“Hurry up and go home. Don’t stay here any longer.”

“Okay, bye.”

Jiang Yining packed her things and turned to leave.

Not long after she left, Qi Feng rushed over.

Seeing that Lu Zhi was already there, Qi Feng said, “Sir, why are you here?”

“I wanted to find Queen personally.”

“But Queen’s signal has disappeared about 10 minutes ago.” Qi Feng lowered his head in guilt.

He had already missed Queen three times.

He was incompetent at his job.

Lu Zhi said coldly, “It doesn’t matter if the signal has disappeared. Gather all the videos of Queen’s appearance and look for overlapping people. We can surely find someone related to Queen, or even herself.”

No matter how cunning a fox was, there would be times when he would give himself away.

Unless Queen was a ghost.

Otherwise, every time she showed up, she would only expose herself more.

It was only a matter of time before they caught her.

Lu Zhi was not in a hurry.

Qi Feng immediately followed Lu Zhi’s instructions.

Meanwhile in an underground casino, Dou Weizhen gambled away the 5,000 yuan she had. Her eyes were red but she refused to leave.

“I want to gamble more. I want to get back my money!”

“You don’t have any money. What are you going to gamble with? Get lost!” The casino thugs cursed as they pushed her away roughly.

“I have money! My daughter is going to graduate from Qing University and make lots of money! Put it on my tab, 20,000 yuan! I’ll ask my daughter to return it to you later!”

“Hehe, I remember that her daughter is as beautiful as a rose in full bloom. If she can’t pay off her mother’s gambling debt with money, she can pay it off with her body.” Another gambler said with a smile.

Dou Weizhen could not bear to hear it but her rationality was soon overpowered by her gambling addiction.

If she played a few more games, she would win back all the money she had lost.

And then Xiaoxi would be fine!

The thug fiddled with the iron rod he was holding. “Want us to keep a tab for you? Sure. But you’ll have to write an 1OU and put your daughter down as collateral. If you can’t pay us back, you’ll have to give your daughter to us.”

“Okay, okay, I’ll write it.”

Dou Weizhen took the pen and paper and began to write with trembling hands.

After it was done, the thug threw her 20,000 yuan.

She joined a new round of games.

It was late at night and raining heavily when Dou Weizhen was thrown out of the illegal casino…

She got up from the muddy ground, her hair and clothes getting wetter by the minute.

And cold air continued to seep into her body.

Dou Weizhen widened her red eyes and sobbed, “Xiaoxi, I’m sorry. I’ve lost everything…”

She had lost more than 800,000 yuan in one day.

People from the casino would soon go to Xiaoxi to collect the debt.

Dou Weizhen knew very well that her daughter could not afford the money.

“I might as well die. I won’t be a burden to Xiaoxi if I’m dead.”

With that thought in mind, Dou Weizhen walked towards the road.

Under the curtain of rain, the endless stream of cars did not notice the zombie-like Dou Weizhen.

She was about to run into the middle of the road when a slender figure holding an umbrella appeared behind her.

“Auntie, I’m Xiaoxi’s classmate. She’s very worried about you and asked me to find you.”

Dou Weizhen turned around when she heard this and saw a beautiful and exquisite face.

“You are…”

“I am Xiao Yeyu.” Xiao Yeyu thoughtfully took a scarf and draped it over her. “Auntie, it’s raining heavily. Let’s talk in the car.”

Dou Weizhen looked behind her.

A BMW!

This car cost a few million yuan, right?

When did Xiaoxi know such a rich classmate?

But if she borrowed money from her, she would probably lend it to her for Xiaoxi’s sake, right?

800,000 yuan was just a drop in the ocean for these tycoons.

“Let’s go.”

Xiao Yeyu supported her as they walked towards the car.

Dou Weizhen did not resist and obediently followed Xiao Yeyu into her car.

After Lu Zhi got home, he didn’t finish his meal. Instead, he went to the study and watched the videos Qi Feng sent him repeatedly.

After watching them for more than ten times…

He paused the playing video when Jiang Yining appeared.

Once or twice could be a coincidence.

Was it still a coincidence if it happened three times?

While he was deep in thought, there was a knock on the door.

He said softly, “Enter.”

Jiang Yining quickly entered in the next second. “It’s time for your treatment today. Don’t work too late.”

“Okay,” Lu Zhi replied casually.

His gaze swept across his computer screen as he said, “I’ve found Queen.”

Jiang Yining’s eyes widened. “Wow. So fast?”

“Are you surprised?” Lu Zhi asked.

“A little. I heard that Queen is so good that unless she showed herself, no one in the world can find her.” Jiang Yining quickly calmed herself down as she spoke.

That’s right.

She had always been cautious. For more than ten years, even Gu Zhanqing and Jiang Rou did not discover that she was Queen.

How could Lu Zhi have found her so quickly?

He must be talking nonsense..
