The Mysterious Heiress: Researcher In Disguise Chapter 505

"Let me put it in this way for you," Shen Cizhou said, "I don't have enough money to pay them. I'm just a poor little guy who came from a village deep in the mountains.
"Maybe you have never heard of my village before. It's quite deep in the mountains. It's called "Good Guys Village". It is one of the poorest villages in our country, and look at this shirt I'm wearing. It looks good, right? But did you know that in order to buy this shirt, I have to sell my blood to get money? And I bought this shirt because I don't want to make you look bad when I come to pick you up."
Fu Zhi became speechless.
She thought about Shen Cizhou's intention.
It was fine to play with her feelings, but it was never fine if anyone tried to cheat her of her money.
As such, Fu Zhi nodded and began making up stories too. "I understand. Honestly, I'm kind of jealous of you. Unlike me, although I came from a poor village known as "Good Girls Village" as well, I sold blood for years because of poverty, and all that flows in my body right now is milk tea."
Shen Cizhou was speechless.
'D*mn it, God! If I'm sinful, please send someone else to deliver the hammer of justice to me, and not let this stingy little brat torture me for my entire life!'
It took Shen Cizhou a lot not to snap out at Fu Zhi. He gripped the steering wheel tightly and changed to another topic, "There's a car in the garage of Iris Time VIlla. It's a Formula-1 race car. Stop saying that you don't have a driver's license, I won't believe in your bullsh*t. If you want to go out, drive yourself. After you've returned to your country, I will help you to deliver the car to Lu Yubai."
"Okay," Fu Zhi said, "You folks from Good Guys Village are so kind. I really appreciate your help."
Shen Cizhou did not know what he should say.
"Anyway," Shen Cizhou tried to continue their conversation, "The people from the International Crime Unit are here as well. Other than arresting Matthew, the main proprietor of the "Equinox Flower" case, they are here to take care of something else as well. They will be patrolling around Mount Qiu Ling a lot, so you have to remain vigilant the whole time. I still need to accept other missions to bring food to the table for my family, so I can't stay by your side the whole time."

'Okay. You can do whatever you want as long as you are not asking for money from me.'
"Your mother should be on her way to meet up with your father at Lucky Cloud Pavilion. Are you going as well? Oh yeah, I put you on the blacklist last time, so let's add each other back on WeChat."
Shen Cizhou threw his phone to Fu Zhi.
Fu Zhi scanned the QR code, and the name "Looking For Free Meals" popped on the screen.
Fu Zhi became speechless.
It seemed to her that he was trying to tell her something through the name, but she was so exhausted from her trip that she had become blind. Therefore, she said, "I'll pass. Send me to a restaurant nearby. I'm going to pick up some food to eat alone at my house."
"??? Okay."
'Why must she emphasize the word "alone"? Could it be that she's worried that I might bum meals off her?'

In the meantime, Xu Wei came out of the villa after she made a call to Lu Jingqing. Just when she was about to flag down a cab, she saw the security guards who were guarding the villa in the security room.
All of them were young and handsome. This was the first impression Xu Wei got from the security guards here. The oldest amongst the group of the bodyguards was their leader. Judging from the lines on his face, Xu Wei surmised that he was in his mid thirties.
His sleeve was rolled up, leaving his patches of tattoos exposed to the air. Right now, he was holding a phone in his hand. Just when Xu Wei was about to walk up to him, she heard him shouting to the phone, "What? He doesn't want to pay the money back? Did he not know how hard it's for me to rob that money from Ghost Shadow Hall? Chop off his leg! If he still doesn't have money to pay back, gouge his eyes…"
Before he could finish his sentence, a young security guard jabbed at him and said, "Captain Wang, Mrs. Lu is here!"
The man known as Captain Wang was stunned. He swallowed the words at the tip of his tongue back to his stomach pit and hung up the call. After that, he rolled the sleeves down to cover his tattoo, opened the door, and ran towards Xu Wei. Then, he offered Xu Wei a smile and asked, "Are you going somewhere, Mrs. Lu? I can fetch you there!"

Shen Cizhou had told him that they had to be extra careful when dealing with Fu Zhi's family. Not only did they have to stay low-profile, but they also had to be careful so that they would not scare her parents.
For example, they must not show their tattoo in front of Fu Zhi's parents and they had to act like normal people in front of them.
Xu Wei paused for a moment before saying, "It's okay. I will take the cab."
"Normal cabs can't come into Mount Qiu Ling, Mrs. Lu. Let me send you to your destination."
The man was talking very gently. When Xu Wei arrived in Myanmar, it was him who went to pick her up at the airport.
Xu Wei could not resist the urge and she asked, "Are you guys really a bunch of security guards?"
Wang Rao's face froze for a moment, but he soon came around to his senses and nodded. "Of course! We all have a business license!"
"Alright, then," Xu Wei said. Since the villa was rented by her husband, she decided to trust him.
Wang Rao was worried that Xu Wei would notice something, so he asked, "Why make you think that we're not security guards?"
Hearing his question, Xu Wei took a glance at the security room. Then, she thought for a moment before saying, "All the security guards in this villa are handsome except you."
The corner of Wang Rao's lips quivered. "... Well, thank you for your compliment."
The group of "security guards" broke into laughter when they heard what Xu Wei had said.
They looked the most innocent and they were the best looking bunch in Shen Cizhou's team. It took him nearly half a month to pick them out and send them here to pretend as security guards.
Wang Rao went to pick a car from the garage.
The black limousine went all the way down Mount Qiu Ling. The road was bumpy and Xu Wei nearly threw up.
Myanmar was a mysterious country known best for its jade. Wang Rao told Xu Wei a lot of things about this country, from the local custom to how Lu Jingqing bumped into a person who offered him to stay at Iris Time Villa.
While he was talking, he kept darting a glance at Xu Wei.
However, Xu Wei's head was swimming right now, so she did not know what he was talking about.
All she wanted right now was throwing herself into her husband's arms.
It was 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and most of the racers had gone to rest. There were very few cars on the road, so the black limousine went all the way down Mount Qiu Ling without facing any difficulties.
By the time Wu Zhiheng and his bodyguards arrived at the foot of Mount Qiu Ling, they bumped into the black limousine.
The male bodyguard behind Wu Zhiheng then said, "Young Master Wu, it seems that the car came down from Iris Time Villa. I guess the owner of Iris Time Villa has really come back, so maybe we should climb up the mountain and talk to the owner about staying in his villa."
—
The stone gambling session of Lucky Cloud Pavilion would start in another 5 days. Fu Zhi took a bath after she had returned to the villa. Before she went to bed, she made a video call to Li Nanli as she figured that he had something to say to her.
The night in Myanmar was cold and there was snow fluttering down from the sky out there.
When Li Nanli picked up the call, the first thing Fu Zhi saw was his fair skin.
