Chapter 234 Little Surprise

“It’s great to hear your voice again. Congratulations on becoming the biggest behind-the-scenes winner of this event.”

"You called me just to tease me?" When Shajin picked up the phone, he heard Feicui's teasing.

"No, I was just lamenting that you didn't lose again this time. Not only did you go deep into the Wolf's Lair alone and uncover the truth about the Dream Reef, but you also escaped unscathed with the help of that pure and beautiful knight..."

"Oh, and the recording you received from your "trailblazer" friend is the most valuable chip on the table."

(The gold chip was taken away by Uncle Yang, and the conversation was recorded.)

"But as the price of winning all this... losing a "cornerstone" is still too expensive. "Diamond" has just initiated a meeting about you." Jade said.

"As expected, so is Diamond planning to demote me as well, or kick me out of the Stoneheart Ten?" Gold Dust asked.

"It's a rare opportunity, why not take a chance?" Jade smiled.

"Hmph, okay, then I'll bet... he's going to upgrade me to P46, right?"

"Well...what are you going to bet on?" asked Jadeite.

"Real or fake? I don't want to give you anything, to avoid being taken advantage of, but if it's just for fun, then just bet like we did when we first met... on my life, ma'am."

"Interesting, but since it is the "Diamond" decision, no one can guess the answer in advance. I am on my way to Pinocchio. Once the rest of the things are arranged, we will return to Pierpoint together to welcome the opening of the cards."

"It sounds like I won't have much to do for a while, which means I can enjoy my vacation?"

"Leave it to me and Topa, kid. Thanks to you, the moment the 'Emerald Stone' was delivered to the family residence, the company's layout was completed, the seeds sown had already taken root and sprouted, and then... it was time to 'harvest'."

"Hmm? Let's go here first. It seems that there are guests coming..." Sha Jin suddenly realized something, said goodbye quickly, and hung up the phone.

"Oh? There are so many new things today. A sea patrol ranger and wanted criminal actually came to our door himself and killed two company employees right under the nose of the company's fleet. Do you know what this means?" Shajin said to Potio who suddenly broke in.

"Fuck you, Uncle Wuwu, I just let them sleep for a while, don't use this trick to threaten me, and besides, I killed more corporate dogs than you squeezed out of the surplus value, I don't mind a few more zeros on the wanted order."

"I have a question for you, be honest or I'll shoot you to death! Tell me...where is Oswaldo Schneider?" Portio raised his gun and pointed it at the gold sand.

"Come on, how about we sit down and have a good chat?" Sha Jin raised his hand and said with a smile.

...

"Wake up... wake up... Hey, Xing! Don't sleep anymore, the sun is shining on your butt!" March 7 shook Xing on the sofa.

"Are you okay? Can you hear me clearly? I knocked on the door just now, but there was no sound in the room. I was scared to death!" San Yueqi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Xing wake up after being shaken by him.

"Am I dreaming? Such a familiar conversation..."

"I'm not dreaming, this is reality, the Daydream Hotel! The dream of order is over. Although a day has passed, I still sweat when I think about it. The train's pioneering journey almost ended in Pinocchio..."

"You are calm and sound asleep. But I was traumatized. I didn't even dare to close my eyes last night, for fear that I would never wake up again."

"I don't know where Lin Yu went! Once we arrived at Pinocchio... we didn't stay with him for more than 5 hours!"

"I really don't know what he is doing..." Sanyueqi sighed.

"Then...what about Firefly?" Xing asked.

"Firefly...is gone too..."

"Wait..." There was something wrong in the look in Sanyueqi's eyes when he looked at Xing.

"You mean...the two of them..."

"Well... that's probably the only way I can think of it..." Xing nodded.

"Damn Lin Yu...we've only been safe for a short time...and he left with Liuying..." Sanyueqi pouted and said with a little dissatisfaction.

“You didn’t even take me with you..Aaaaah!”

"I don't want to participate in the talks! I also want to go out and play!" Sanyueqi walked around the room with his head in his hands.

"Talks? What talks?" Xing wondered.

"Well... the four major families other than Oak are trying their best to calm the aftermath of the incident. The train crew has also been invited to sit on the family's "Fallen Stone" and participate in important talks as witnesses."

"Now there are only two of us left.. um.. so annoying..."

"What is the 'Phoenix Stone'?" Xing asked.

"It's a huge airship, it's amazing! I heard that it never appears in public, and only the distinguished guests of the family are qualified to climb the bow and see the beautiful scenery of Pinocchio."

"The Iris family also sent many souvenirs and fruit baskets, as well as an exquisite button model. When you are well, you can enjoy it slowly... Now we are considered the big shots of the event."

"You will definitely like these. As for me... I just want to enjoy those fruit baskets, hehe..."

...

"Um...please...please slow down, okay? I can't keep up, I feel...so tired..." Liuying said while breathing slightly, with her hands lightly supported on her knees, trying to keep up with Lin Yu's non-stop pace.

"Hmm...slow...slow down..."

Lin Yu stopped and looked back at Liuying. A hint of imperceptible tenderness flashed in his eyes, and then he slowed down his pace.

Liuying followed closely behind Lin Yu. Her steps were slightly staggering, but she insisted on not stopping.

"Huh... we're finally here. Come, sit here." Lin Yu turned around with a warm smile on his face. He patted the bench beside him gently, motioning Liuying to sit down.

Liuying looked up and looked in the direction of Lin Yu's finger, only to see a wooden bench not far away.

Although Liuying was full of doubts, her trust in Lin Yu made her walk over without hesitation and slowly sit beside Lin Yu with a hint of curiosity on her face.

"Come, look up and look at the airship in the sky." Lin Yu said softly.

Hearing this, Liuying raised her head obediently, shifted her gaze away from Lin Yu, and turned to the sky where blue and gold were intertwined. The moment she looked up at the sky, the whole world seemed to stand still.

Suddenly, a dazzling light streaked across the sky, and gorgeous fireworks rose quietly from nowhere. They bloomed in the night sky, colorful and dreamy.

Liuying's eyes were instantly filled with this sudden beauty. She widened her eyes, opened her mouth slightly, and her face was full of surprise.

"Lin Yu...this...did you do this?" Liuying covered her mouth, looking frightened.

"This is a little surprise for you. How about it?" Lin Yu looked at her with a smile.

"Thank you...I like it very much!" Liuying said excitedly.

"Now that things have come to an end, do you still remember the agreement I made before?" Lin Yu asked Liuying.

"I remember the agreement." Liuying held her hands and nodded nervously.

"I've got everything ready. As long as you agree, we can start." Lin Yu said seriously.

"Really..Is it okay?"

"Can I...not show myself in dreams anymore?"

"Of course, it's your right."

"Thank you..." Liuying shed tears of gratitude.
