Chapter 125: Someone Offering a Bounty to Kidnap Zi Yi
Her villa actually had a basement, but it was not big enough. What she wanted was to transform the whole underground area under her villa into a basement.
Therefore, the required construction work was rather large.
In the morning, Lu Jingye had sent someone over to discuss with Zi Yi how she wanted to have the basement constructed.
In the afternoon, she took all her daily necessities and arrived at Lu Jingye’s villa.
As he looked at the racing cars she had driven over, Lu Jingye asked, “You intend to continue modifying the cars?”
“Yep.”
He thought that it was also good that she had something to keep herself occupied with. He then ordered the housekeeper. “Build a garage for Zi Yi in an open space.”
The way the housekeeper looked at Zi Yi had changed even more. With the thought that she might possibly be the Second Young Master’s other half, he had to serve her well. “I understand.”
Following that, Lu Jingye brought Zi Yi to her room.
“You will be staying here during this period of time.”
Zi Yi toured the room. It was an ensuite, where the bedroom and living room were separated by a bookshelf. There were only a few potted plants placed on the shelf, and the empty spaces were obviously for her to decorate as she pleased.
The living room had a set of beige sofas. Beside the floor-to-ceiling windows was a hanging basket chair, where one could see the scenery outside the villa.
Zi Yi thought that it would be pretty good to surf the net while sitting on that chair.
After she finished the tour, Zi Yi turned to look at Lu Jingye. “Where are you staying?”
“Third floor.”
Zi Yi nodded and did not continue to ask.
Lu Jingye told her to put her clothes and articles away before he then left.
After Zi Yi unpacked her belongings, she took her laptop and sat on the hanging basket chair.
While she watched Lu Jingye in the yard, listening to something the housekeeper was saying, she quickly entered a long string of codes.
The code was successfully generated and Zi Yi entered the black market bounty list.
When she took a look, she was somewhat surprised.
“Someone is offering a bounty to kidnap me? Pfft! It’s only 50 million!”
Zi Yi was a little dissatisfied that her value was so low.
However, when she saw the bounty amount for the second-ranked on the list, a hacker whose code name was ‘Little Fairy’, she suddenly felt appeased.
That’s right, Little Fairy was a codename the hacking world had given her. No one could find any traces of her movements and she was also fond of leaving behind a dancing little fairy after she completed a deed. Thus, this was how the nickname had come about.
But when she saw the first-ranked, she clicked her tongue. To think someone is willing to offer 1.5 billion for a person’s life… such extravagance. But then again, who is this person named Silver Fox?
Her fingers rapidly tapped on the keyboard. Soon, she found out who that person was.
As it turns out, they are the second-ranked killer on the world’s killer list. What has this person ever done to make someone offer 1.5 billion for their life?
Just as she planned to continue checking, knocking sounds could be heard.
She withdrew from the black market and walked over to the door with her laptop in hand.
The person standing outside was the housekeeper.
Behind him were two maids.
The housekeeper said to her, “Miss Zi, they will be responsible for your room in the future. If you have anything that cannot be touched, you can inform them.”
Zi Yi nodded. “My laptop, notebook and phone are off limits.”
The two maids replied at once, “We understand, Miss Zi.”
Following that, the housekeeper informed them to head down first before he spoke to Zi Yi. “Miss Zi, dinner is at 5 p.m sharp. You can inform me if you have any cravings or food that you avoid.”
“Anything is fine.”
“I understand.”
The housekeeper left after that.
When Zi Yi went downstairs at 5 p.m, she discovered Lu Jingye was already sitting at the dinner table waiting for her.
However, he seemed to be very busy. He had an earpiece in his ear and he was currently giving out orders to the other party.
