PNB Chapter 293 Naozhou Island
Chapter 293 Naozhou Island
At this time, in the He family's villa, Sun Ying was happily seeing her younger brother off. She told her younger brother to be careful and pay attention to safety outside, her eyes full of concern and reluctance.
However, just as she turned around and was about to go back to her room, a servant ran in in a panic and brought her a piece of news that shocked her - something had happened to Huo Jianjie!
Sun Ying felt a buzzing in her head, and the bowl of chicken soup in her hand fell to the ground with a "bang". The crisp sound broke the tranquility in the yard.
He Jinyan, who was leaning on the couch, heard the noise, slowly raised his head, and looked in the direction of the sound.
The sudden silence made the servant who reported the news feel inexplicably nervous. He subconsciously lowered his head and did not dare to look directly into He Jinyan's eyes.
"Why, are you so scared after hearing some news?" He Jinyan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile. His tone seemed relaxed, but it made people inexplicably feel a chill.
Sun Ying's heartbeat suddenly quickened. She had never thought that Murong Ling'er's father had drowned in the sea. She subconsciously looked towards He Jinyan. When she met his smiling yet cold eyes, her heart suddenly tightened. She immediately came to her senses, shook her head gently, and said calmly, "It's just too unexpected. I didn't expect..."
Sun Ying knew in her heart that this matter was most likely He Jinyan's behind the scenes. Once Huo Jianjie died, with Murong Ling'er's hot temper, she would definitely not let He Jinyan go, and a fierce conflict was inevitable.
Thinking of this, Sun Ying couldn't help but worry about her situation.
"Guess what will happen next?" He Jinyan stared at Sun Ying with a playful gleam in his eyes, as if he was expecting her answer.
Sun Ying took a deep breath, slowly raised her head, looked at He Jinyan with a firm gaze, and said without hesitation: "Murong Ling'er will not give up. She will definitely try her best to seek revenge on you. You have to be careful."
Hearing this, He Jinyan raised a smug smile and nodded with satisfaction.
As the young master of the He family, he was a powerful figure in this area, so he had naturally heard of Murong Ling'er's power.
However, the arrogance in his heart made him not take Murong Ling'er seriously at all. Even if she knew that he was the one behind her, she would not have the courage to attack him openly.
The He family's power is complex and deeply rooted, and it is not something that a weak woman like her can easily shake.
With such confidence, He Jinyan didn't take Huo Jianjie's affairs to heart at all. She continued to stay leisurely in the villa, enjoying this moment of comfort.
Sometimes he played with the jade pendant in his hand, sometimes he sipped the fragrant tea, as if everything in the world was under his control.
And on the distant sea, a small boat was speeding towards the distance.
On the boat, Huo Jianjie slowly woke up, feeling dizzy and his whole body aching.
He slowly opened his eyes and found himself in a small but neatly decorated room. Sunlight shone through the window onto the bed, creating patches of mottled light and shadow.
"Master Huo, are you awake?" Lin Yu, who had been guarding by the side, noticed that Huo Jianjie had woken up, and a look of joy instantly appeared on his face.
He hurriedly turned around, poured a glass of warm water, carefully brought it to Huo Jianjie, gently helped him up, and fed him the water.
“Ahem…” Huo Jianjie coughed a few times to moisten his dry throat, then asked with a confused look on his face, “Where am I?”
He tried hard to recall what had happened before, and the scene of being trapped in the surging waves emerged in his mind. At that time, he was full of despair and thought that he was doomed to die, but now he appeared here inexplicably.
"Lord Huo, we are no longer on Donghai Island." Lin Yu put down the water cup and replied respectfully.
“Not on Donghai Island?” Huo Jianjie widened his eyes in surprise. He struggled to sit up and find out what was going on, but accidentally pulled the wound on his thigh.
"Hiss—" He gasped in pain, and beads of sweat instantly appeared on his forehead.
“Master Huo, please don’t move!” Lin Yu hurried forward and gently pressed him back to the bed, saying with concern, “Your leg is injured, you have to take good care of it.”
After Huo Jianjie recovered a little, Lin Yu began to tell him everything that happened after he fell into a coma.
From the brilliant plan that Murong Ling'er came up with, to how everyone worked together to rescue him onto the boat, and then to how they braved the wind and waves all the way away from Donghai Island and came to this strange island.
Huo Jianjie was stunned when he heard this. He was completely stunned. He just went to the sea once, how could so many thrilling things happen?
Not only did he lose his original exile status, but he was also sent to a place hundreds of miles away from Donghai Island. All this happened too suddenly, making it difficult for him to accept it for a while.
"Master Huo, please rest and recover first."
Lin Yu looked at Huo Jianjie's slightly confused eyes and comforted him softly, "This island is already under the control of our prince. When your leg injury is healed, there are still many things to do on the island, and I have to rely on you to help take care of it!"
Huo Jianjie nodded slightly, thinking to himself that it seemed that he had ushered in a new turning point. He looked at the blue sky outside the window, and the light of hope gradually ignited in his eyes.
The East China Sea, this vast expanse of water, is like a mysterious blue world. The boundless sea water is surging, containing endless stories. In this sea area, islands are dotted around, like pearls scattered on the sea.
Among them, Donghai Island is just a more well-known one, and there are many large and small islands around it. They have their own legends due to their unique geographical location or complex power struggles.
The Ganzhou Island where Lin Yu and others are now is originally the pirates' lair. In the South China Sea, the pirate forces are complicated and intricate, like an invisible net covering this sea area.
Large pirate gangs occupy resource-rich islands, while small pirates roam various shipping routes, robbing passing merchant ships. These pirates rely on their familiarity with the sea environment and flexible ships to make it difficult for passing ships to defend themselves.
Since the incident in the Prince of Chu's Mansion, Chu Lingfeng has demonstrated extraordinary strategy and foresight. He arranged in advance to secretly infiltrate some of his capable subordinates into the exile team to be responsible for protection and secret assistance.
Another force crossed the ocean and successfully captured Ganzhou Island after a fierce battle.
They transformed themselves into pirates and continued to expand their influence in this sea area. After a period of development, they have now grown to a considerable scale.
However, Lin Yu did not immediately inform Huo Jianjie, who was still recovering from his injuries, of these details.
After all, Huo Jianjie was sent to Ganzhou Island by accident. Once his injuries heal, there will be plenty of time for him to understand the truth.
