Chapter 260: Never Meet Again in This Life

Yun Ruojin's tone was so genuine that even Fu Sijue had to carefully gauge whether what she said was true or false.

"This is America, A Jue," Yun Ruojin whispered.

Even if the Fu Clan has a branch here, Qiang Long still can't overpower the Local Big Shot.

Only here does Yun Ruojin have enough confidence.

"There is no Shen Shu to help you here, nor any of your supporters; if you want to find Lu Xiwán, you can only rely on me,"

Yun Ruojin said it with absolute certainty; when she was in Haicheng she hadn't been sure, but in America she is completely confident.

Yao Yao suddenly gave Fu Sijue's sleeve a gentle tug; the two met each other's gaze, and even without saying a word they both understood each other's meaning.

"Let's let the kids go out to play first; they aren't in a position to hear what we're discussing,"

Without a second thought, Yun Ruojin agreed to Fu Sijue's request and summoned two maids to take the children away.

"I don't want to say any more unnecessary words; after all this time, you should understand my feelings—I truly love you,"

Even with mutual interests now involved, Yun Ruojin's love is no longer pure, but she still wants to obtain Fu Sijue by any means.

"Do you think I'm a fool?"

Fu Sijue suddenly asked that, and Yun Ruojin instantly widened her eyes in disbelief.

In Fu Sijue's Phoenix Eyes was full of sarcasm, "You say Wanwan is in your hands; on what grounds should I believe you? What if you're deceiving me?"

Yun Ruojin quickly dispelled the doubt in her heart.

"If you agree, I can take you to see Lu Xiwán right now; I guarantee she hasn't suffered any harm,"

Fu Sijue remained silent for a long while.

The maid led Yao Yao and Xi Xi to the garden; seizing the moment, Yao Yao took Xi Xi and bolted, and no matter how the maid chased behind, she couldn't catch up.

Yao Yao, with Xi Xi, followed the route from memory and ran back to the villa.

"I'll search the left side, you'll search the right; if you find anything, remember to message me,"

They didn't know how much longer Daddy could stall, so Yao Yao had to speed up the search.

Locked in the room, Lu Xiwán didn't idle; she scanned around and set her target on a mirror not far away.

But after half a day of effort she still couldn't reach it, so she resolutely tipped a chair to one side, fell onto the floor in one crash, and a muffled "thud" sounded.

Lu Xiwán, ignoring her own pain, kicked for a long time until her foot turned toward the cabinet, repeatedly striking the cabinet.

The mirror fell from the cabinet with a crisp crack, shattering into pieces; Lu Xiwán finally breathed a sigh of relief, then changed direction and kept laboriously gathering the shards.

She couldn't see what lay behind, and even though her fingers were cut by the shards, she paid no mind.

Yun Ruojin had sent people in the middle of the night to bind her from the hotel to here, clearly a pre‑planned move; sitting here waiting for someone to rescue her was unreliable, and Lu Xiwán could only pray that Yun Ruojin wouldn't return before she cut the rope.

Footsteps suddenly came from outside the door, and Lu Xiwán involuntarily held her breath.

A small head cautiously peered in from behind the door, and the moment the newcomer appeared, Lu Xiwán's heart was filled only with the joy of being saved.

Yao Yao quickly noticed Lu Xiwán lying on the ground and rushed in.

Lu Xiwán still clutched the mirror shards tightly in her hand, a pool of blood at her side.

Yao Yao's eyes immediately reddened, and she quickly pulled the cloth that had been stuffed in Lu Xiwán's mouth.
