Chapter 1167 - Born To Be Rebellious

Panda Novel

Ye Yuwei stopped walking when she noticed that Gu Juexi was standing still.

“What’s wrong?” Ye Yuwei looked at Gu Juexi’s pale face and asked.

Gu Juexi’s brows were furrowed.

Could it be a coincidence?

His good friend had told him that another blood diamond that was rumored to be cursed had been made into a matching ring and necklace set.

Though it could really just be a coincidence judging by how different sapphires and blood diamonds were.

“Nothing, something just crossed my mind. Let’s go,” Gu Juexi quickly relaxed his features and said emotionlessly.

“So the sapphire necklace is actually retrievable, right? Right?” Ye Yuwei went to Gu Juexi and grabbed his arm as she asked.

“How is anyone going to find something that has sank to the bottom of the sea?” Gu Juexi flexed his arm and dragged Ye Yuwei who was being naughty and trying to hold him still.

“You, the omnipotent Mr. Gu,” Ye Yuwei flattered Gu Juexi. After all, it felt more auspicious to have the matching jewelry together.

“Are you really giving it away even after I told you it is ominous?” Gu Juexi looked at the woman who was clinging onto him and asked.

Ye Yuwei was speechless when Gu Juexi started to talk about the ominous gems again. Since when was he so superstitious?

Ye Yuwei had mentioned the sapphire a few times now, and had decided to treat it as lost if Gu Juexi was not going to tell her where it was.

Towards the end of the day, Ye Yuwei has bought a few toys for her children and nothing for herself. After most of the team had gone back, Gu Juexi decided to visit and explore the island. He had planned to develop tourism on the island for profit, but he had to make sure that the risk factor was in an acceptable range before he could actually start developing it.

They were getting to the island by helicopter, and they wanted to try landing at the southern part of the island this time. As they landed, they noticed that the southern part of the island was also a beach with no trace of human habitation.

Looks like this was an island that was well-camouflaged.

Yu Jiangqing and Lu Qichuan were already on the island when they landed. Due to Yu Jiangqing’s secret identity, the two of them had visited the island incognito.

Ye Yuwei was surprised to see the two of them. Xiao Yaojing was normal when Lu Qichuan said hi, but PA Wen had a funny look on his face.

“Rambo and I flew around the island. The beach and the jungle each take up half of the island, and it shouldn’t be impossible to build a resort here. I will skip elaborating what is PA Wen’s expertise. The jungle has a few clear boundaries. The part where you and Ye Yuwei were should be the first part, followed by a swamp, then the black forest, and one last part that has yet to be identified. We estimate at least three days to substantially discover the last part of the jungle.”

Ye Yuwei listened to their conversation and understood roughly what they were planning to do. A man like Gu Juexi was born to be rebellious. An unknown place was like a tempting challenge to him, and there was no way that he would give up the chance to explore it.

When Gu Juexi and Ye Yuwei were there, Gu Juexi had managed to escape the jungle even while injured and having to take care of Ye Yuwei.

The reason why Yu Jiangqing was here became obvious. The two of them were itching to go for another expedition, and the unidentified jungle was just the place they were looking for.

“Gu Juexi…” Having been there before, Ye Yuwei knew how dangerous the jungle could get.

“Don’t worry, they will bring signal flares and the helicopter will be on standby,” Lu Qichuan comforted Ye Yuwei.

Gu Juexi and Yu Jiangqing each brought compressed biscuits that could last them three days and a bottle of water. They also brought daggers with them. Yu Jiangqing tossed his gun to Lu Qichuan before entering the jungle, obviously not taking it with him.
