The originally leisurely music at the banquet stopped abruptly. Her clear voice clearly echoed throughout the hall.
Everyone's gazes fell on Shen Jianyi. However, the person involved showed no reaction at all. She even continued to sit there calmly without a blush or a flutter of her heart.
It was obvious that her words were insinuating about Lu Ziqian's actions today, and everyone could see that.
Lu Ziqian felt embarrassed. Leaning on his cane, he walked over slowly. Standing in front of the two of them, he coughed twice. "Jianyi, how can you talk like that? What do you mean by it being Jinsheng's blind - date party?"
She didn't want to argue with this patient. In case she said something wrong and angered him into the hospital again, she would be in big trouble.
In the eyes of the onlookers, this scene was a bit awkward. After all, it was a family matter of the Lu family. They didn't want to get involved, so they all went to the other side to do their own things.
Shen Jianyi looked up expressionlessly. "You misunderstood. I was just saying it casually. I'm not insinuating about anyone."
After saying that, feeling it was time, she lifted her skirt and was about to walk out.
Lu Ziqian was so angry that his hands trembled. He coughed continuously and shouted, "Shen Jianyi, come back here!"
With her back to everyone, she took a deep breath helplessly. As she exhaled, she turned around with a calm expression. "What's the matter?"
"It's fine that you didn't visit me during my hospital stay. But now that I'm finally out of the hospital, you're treating me like this. Do you think that's reasonable?"
Hearing this, Shen Jianyi didn't care at all. A cold glint flashed in her eyes. "You know exactly why you were hospitalized."
She didn't want to tell what had happened at that time in front of so many people, because then no one would have a way out.
Lu Ziqian knew he was in the wrong. He leaned back shakily. Lan Xi was very observant and supported him. "Second Master, you'd better go and rest."
He shook off the woman's hand and wanted to chase after Shen Jianyi to scold her. Unfortunately, she had already left the banquet.
This perfectly good banquet was completely ruined by the argument between the two of them. Now no one dared to say a word. They just huddled in the corner and silently watched this drama staged by the Lu family.
Seeing this, Lu Jinsheng didn't even look back and chased after Shen Jianyi.
"Lu Jinsheng, if you dare to leave this banquet hall today, don't blame me for not recognizing you as my son!"
Lu Jinsheng turned his head and said in a calm voice, "You've said this countless times, but every time it's you who actively invited me back."
As soon as the words fell, he directly rushed out of the door.
Lu Ziqian gasped for breath continuously. His whole body was trembling. He felt like he was about to faint at any moment. But now almost no one stepped forward to take care of him, except for Lan Xi who wanted to curry favor with him.
"Second Master, I'll support you to go and rest first." Lan Xi supported him to the sofa. She bent down and whispered in Lu Ziqian's ear, "I'll go and chase them now. I'll make Jinsheng come back and apologize."
Hearing this, Lu Ziqian looked up.
Suddenly, for a moment, he felt that this girl was quite good. She was more beautiful than Lin Zhirou, and most importantly, she was more sensible. Unlike Shen Jianyi, who could only make him angry and couldn't do anything else.
"Okay..."
Lan Xi lifted her skirt and rushed out in a hurry.
When she followed out, there was no sign of the two of them outside. She looked around and finally managed to keep up with the car driven by Lu Jinsheng.
...
At this moment, Shen Jianyi had almost annoyed the taxi driver.
"Uncle, can you drive a bit faster?" Shen Jianyi tightly grabbed the back of the front - seat. "I'm really in a hurry!"
The taxi driver looked at the woman's nervous expression through the rear - view mirror. He shook his head helplessly. "Miss, I've already stepped on the gas pedal to the bottom. This is the fastest speed. No matter how much you urge me, it won't be any faster."
She took a deep breath. It was as if she was racing against time, and every minute and every second was extremely precious.
Shen Jianyi looked out of the window. She saw a Maybach catching up from behind. Now it was driving side by side with the taxi. The speed of the sports car must be fast. If she took Lu Jinsheng's car, she might still make it in time.
She directly scanned the payment to the driver. "Uncle, I've paid you. You don't need to give me the change!"
As soon as the words fell, before the driver could react, Shen Jianyi directly pushed open the car door. Looking at the open convertible top of the other car, she didn't hesitate at all and directly jumped over.
The taxi driver was really scared. His whole body trembled. He almost lost control of the car and hit the pillar on the side.
What was wrong with these people? They wanted to jump out of the car at every turn!
Shen Jianyi sat steadily in the passenger seat. She let out a sigh of relief. "Can we make it?"
"Don't worry."
Shen Jianyi turned her head, looking puzzled. "Didn't you say everything was ready? So what did you prepare?"
After saying this, Lu Jinsheng handed his phone to her. It showed the chat records between him and Mo Yun.
It clearly stated that Mo Yun had already flown the private plane to the rooftop of the main building of the Lu family. Unfortunately, Shen Jianyi left in such a hurry that she just perfectly missed it.
Lu Jinsheng stepped on the gas pedal to the bottom. The car sped through the night road at an extremely fast speed. The corner of his lips curled up slightly. "If you were a bit later, maybe we would already be there."
Shen Jianyi looked out of the window and didn't answer his question. It turned out that Lu Jinsheng had already arranged everything, but he just didn't have time to say it. She sighed. After all, she was just too impatient.
When the two of them arrived at the dock, it was just in time.
Seeing that the ship was about to set sail, she raised her eyes and saw a speedboat on one side of the ship. There were two people sitting on the speedboat, one tall and one short. If she guessed correctly, they should be Lu Suowei and his son.
Sure enough, these two people really wanted to successfully transport the chip out. Shen Jianyi didn't have time to think about anything else. She leaped up and directly jumped out of the car.
Although she was wearing high - heels, it didn't affect Shen Jianyi's speed at all. Before leaving, Shen Jianyi left a sentence. "Don't follow me. Just stay here obediently and wait for me!"
Lu Jinsheng didn't answer.
He just watched Shen Jianyi running towards the dock at an extremely fast speed. Just as she was about to board the ship, the ship suddenly left the dock.
The distance between them was not short. Shen Jianyi took out a red fox mask from somewhere to cover her face. She leaped forward and quickly, accurately and fiercely boarded the ship.
No one saw all this. What she had to do now was to hide on the ship and see where they were going to take the real chip.
She turned sideways and climbed into the underground warehouse of the ship. Shen Jianyi carefully hid inside. This was the safest place, and almost no one would come here.
Just as she sat down, she heard a sound of footsteps above her head.
