Meng Si assured Gu Dai with a gentle voice, “Daidai, go ahead with your investigation without any worries. I promise that the mastermind behind this won’t be able to harm auntie and uncle in the slightest.”
With Meng Si’s words easing her concerns, Gu Dai felt completely reassured.
The next morning, Gu Dai and Su Ting boarded a private jet.
Four hours later, the plane landed on a secluded beach on Yunlin Island.
Before disembarking, Gu Dai instructed Su Ting, “If we encounter any danger this time, we must face it together. We cannot afford to act separately like we did on the ship last time.”
Su Ting obediently agreed, “Okay.”
The people arranged by Meng Si were already waiting on the beach. Upon seeing Gu Dai, they quickly approached and respectfully said, “Miss Gu, we are here to assist you on behalf of President Meng.”
Gu Dai nodded slightly.
Noticing the boxes in their hands, Su Ting curiously asked, “What’s in these two boxes?”
The man replied, “These contain local attire. The clothes you’re wearing are too conspicuous. To blend in, it’s advisable to change into these local garments.”
Gu Dai took the clothes, appreciating their thoughtfulness, “You’ve considered everything.”
The man was somewhat flustered by Gu Dai’s compliment.
As Gu Dai and Su Ting explored the perimeter of the island, they noticed the tight security. There were plainclothes guards patrolling every section of the path, and a circle of men in black guarded the shore.
Gu Dai, with a cold voice, noted, “To keep my parents imprisoned on this island for so long and to have so many guards, the mastermind behind this must hold significant power here.”
Su Ting nodded in agreement, “Daidai, I think we should start our investigation with the island’s highest authority.”
Gu Dai agreed, “That’s what I was thinking too.”
Immediately, Gu Dai took out her phone to look up information about the island’s leader and his whereabouts.
Su Ting, looking at the screen, quietly said, “The castle is in the center of the island. How are we going to get in?”
Gu Dai mentioned, “There’s a castle tour group starting in five minutes. We can sign up and go in with them.”
They quickly blended in with the tour group.
The locals were incredibly welcoming, “This young couple looks so good together, perfectly matched. We’ve never seen you before; are you from out of town?”
Gu Dai nodded with a smile, “Yes, we are.”
“You wearing our local attire looks wonderful, almost like matching couple outfits, though it’s merely a similar design.”
After saying this, a local cautiously asked, “Are you two a couple?”
Su Ting, a bit embarrassed by the question, softly said, “We are a couple.”
Gu Dai nodded in agreement and reached out to hold Su Ting’s hand.
The locals, hearing this, immediately smiled, “That’s wonderful! You two are so well matched. We would have regretted it for a lifetime if you weren’t a couple. Knowing now that you are, makes us very happy!”
Their comments were met with agreement from other locals, “Yes, yes!”
Upon seeing the castle, Gu Dai took a deep breath to calm her nerves, but to her surprise, the tour guide only led them around the outside.
The guide announced, “This concludes our tour. You can now enjoy food and drinks around here, as well as various shops.”
After finishing his announcement, he seriously added, “Remember, you can only play around here. Do not try to sneak into the castle. It’s home to many important people, and if you offend them, no one can save you.”
The locals nodded in understanding, “We got it.”
Gu Dai, looking at the castle, frowned, “How are we going to get in?”
Su Ting pointed out, “Daidai, look over there.”
Following Su Ting’s gaze, Gu Dai saw a tricycle slowly heading towards the castle, loaded with various gardening tools, with the driver and gardener chatting.
The driver complained, “It’s so annoying. Just when it was supposed to be a day off, the company calls me in to work.”
The gardener, glancing around fearfully and sighing in relief upon seeing no one, whispered, “We’re about to enter the castle. Keep your voice down, lest Miss Aad’s people hear you.”
The driver scoffed, “So what if they hear?”
The gardener slapped the driver’s head in anger, hissing through clenched teeth, “If Miss Aad hears you say that, she won’t let us off easily.. I don’t want to die alongside you!”
