Chapter 225 The Drunken Boy
"Oh?" Jiang Lin trailed off with a mocking tone. "Then how did you get the information from Jiang Yu? Jiang Yu is a shrewd and calculating man; wouldn't he try to gain something from it?"
Ji Ran lowered his head awkwardly, his legs together like a child who had made a mistake: "Well, anyway, as long as we can get the clues, that's fine. I'm okay."
"I don't care what methods you use, you know Jiang Yu better than I do. Saving your life is the most important thing, don't get involved." Jiang Lin's calm voice was like a sharp sword aimed at Ji Ran's heart.
Ji Ran clenched his fists around his knees and nodded silently.
Seeing Ji Ran's dejected expression, Jiang Lin felt much better. From the moment Ji Ran entered the room, he could smell Jiang Yu's strong scent on him; he knew without a doubt that the two had spent another night together.
Jiang Lin said that, of course, to sow discord, since Jiang Yu had repeatedly annoyed him.
Jiang Lin was unhappy, and she wasn't going to let Jiang Yu have it so easy!
Why is it that we all share the surname Jiang?
In the tenth-floor restaurant, Jiang Yu was having breakfast with Bai Chuchu when he suddenly felt an itch in his nose and couldn't help but sneeze.
"What's wrong? Have you caught a cold?" Bai Chuchu's concerned voice came from beside her.
Jiang Yu laughed heartily: "The beds on the ship are a bit small, I'm not used to sleeping there."
“There are double rooms on the 9th floor, would you like me to change your room?” Bai Chuchu suggested. Her father was a shareholder of the Noah, so changing rooms was just a matter of a word!
“Not for now.” Jiang Yu handed the milk to Bai Chuchu and smiled. “Chuchu, we’ve already explored all the places on this ship. How about we ask the ship to take us to the lower level?”
Bai Chuchu hadn't paid attention to what was on the basement level at first, but Jiang Yu kept mentioning it, which made her curious: "After we watch the opera this afternoon, I'll ask someone to find out."
Jiang Yu thoughtfully peeled an egg for Bai Chuchu: "Chuchu, I'm so lucky to be your boyfriend!"
Bai Chuchu blushed with delight at Jiang Yu's blushing face, and gave Jiang Yu's cheek a kiss: "You're the most obedient one!"
Jiang Yu returned the kiss as usual, but stopped when his lips were a centimeter away from the girl's cheek.
For some reason, the image of Ji Ran sobbing pitifully in his arms came to mind.
Jiang Yu, who had originally planned to kiss the girl's cheek, changed direction and ended up only touching the girl's hair.
For Jiang Yu, playing along with NPCs was commonplace, and he would even have closer contact when necessary.
He didn't know why he suddenly felt the urge to remain faithful to Ji Ran; it was strange. But, it seemed alright too.
As images of Ji Ran filled his mind, Jiang Yu became increasingly distracted during his conversation with Bai Chuchu.
After Jiang Lin and Zhao Ruoxi finished their discussion, the group split up and continued their work. Jiang Lin took out his phone and checked the time. It was 8 a.m., and there was only an hour and a half before the evacuation point for Lu Xingtong's beginner dungeon opened.
Lu Xingtong has entered the second stage after receiving the blue blood injection, and theoretically, her infection rate should not be lower than Song Yan's after just one injection. Jiang Lin currently speculates that Lu Xingtong will be unable to evacuate.
Fortunately, there was no time limit for their evacuation point. Theoretically, Lu Xingtong's infection level still had a chance to decrease. As long as it dropped below 80%, there was still a chance for them to evacuate.
However, the experiment with the Vislan herb failed, and Jiang Lin needs to find a new antidote for "blue blood".
At this time in the morning, the fitness area on the 4th floor was open, and Jiang Lin pressed the elevator button leading to the 4th floor first.
Jiang Lin wandered around the fitness area for a while, but didn't see the chubby guy with the red nameplate that Jiang Yu had mentioned, so he randomly picked up a treadmill and continued to wait.
Less than an hour later, the chubby red nameplate didn't appear, but Jiang Lin spotted another red nameplate, this one with platinum blonde hair. Jiang Lin remembered his name was "Akins".
Atkins seemed to be in a bad mood; his face practically screamed "Keep Out."
Jiang Lin glanced at the place where Atkins had come out; it was the backstage area of the fitness area, where passengers were not allowed to enter.
These red nameplates appeared and disappeared mysteriously, leading Jiang Lin to suspect that there were secret passages leading to the underground floor within the designated employee areas on each floor.
Jiang Lin did not hesitate and turned to follow Atkins.
Atkins took the elevator directly to the bar on the first floor and went into the bar's staff area again.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Lin asked the bartender for a shot of strong liquor, drank it all in one gulp, then grabbed a can of beer and slipped into the bar's staff area when the waiter wasn't looking.
The staff area was slightly larger than Jiang Lin had imagined; a lounge was just around the corner.
Although the bar is open 24 hours a day, the main activities take place in the evening and early morning, so there are no staff members resting in the staff area early in the morning.
Jiang Lin thought that Atkins had come to do something important, but who knew that this guy was secretly drinking alcohol here.
"Damn four-legged worms! Klein, that bastard!" Adkins cursed as he drank. Soon, his feet were surrounded by flattened soda cans.
Jiang Lin observed that the time was almost ripe, and carrying a beer, he walked unsteadily toward Atkins.
"Who's there?" Atkins called out alertly upon hearing footsteps.
A handsome young man, drunk, walked toward him with a can of beer in his hand.
"Where is this?" Jiang Lin asked, his body flushed. He unbuttoned the top two buttons of his shirt, revealing his pinkish skin.
