An Exclusive love

That was a very popular single-player escape game. Currently, the fastest puzzle-solving record uploaded online was finding three keys in five hours.

“Tuan Zi, I heard from Bear that you went through the prior version almost in a flash. Try this version! It’s said that if you go through it, you can have the chance to experience the same designer’s latest game.” Ah Zi jumped up and down excitedly. “What do you think? Do you want to give it a try?”

“I’ll have a try!” Tuan Zi picked up the gamepad.

Nervously staring at her, Ah Zi even left aside her favorite duck’s neck that Bear brought her when he returned.

“What did you do?” Chen Chen and Jiang Rui came out of the room. Seeing her blush, Bear smiled at Jiang Rui, meaningfully.

What happened in the room just then was the following…

“Liuliu, if you continue with such deadly researches, I won’t let you enter the laboratory.” Jiang Rui looked at her seriously. “You’ve got dark circles under your eyes. If your brother knows this later, he will blame it on me again.”

Chen Chen touched her own face and mysteriously said, “Brother Xiao Rui, have you felt something strange when you live in the army quarters these days?”

“Something strange…” Jiang Rui was shocked. Did she found out about me…?

“I always dream that Hei Zi licks me at night.” Chen Chen mussed her hair. “Sometimes, it’s a cat. Sometimes it’s a rabbit. Anyway, I always dream of being licked by animals.”

Jiang Rui looked sullen, pretending to be innocent and asking her, “Well, where did they lick?”

Chen Chen blushed and fell silent.

“Why do you blush so suddenly?” Jiang Rui touched her head; in a seemingly serious tone he said, “See, I told you not to work so hard. Now, you’re worn out and fell ill.”

“No.” Chen Chen pushed his hand away. “It’s… It’s too hot here.”

Jiang Rui reached out and took off her coat. “It’s not hot now.”

“Uh-huh.” Chen Chen nodded with her head lowered.

Facts had proven that no matter how indifferent and cool a man was, he would also become a shameless beast in front of his beloved woman.

“Liuliu, do you think you’re getting bigger?” Jiang Rui squinted his eyes and looked at her breasts.

Chen Chen looked up at him. “What? No, my height was fixed a long time ago.”

“I’m not talking about you height.” Jiang Rui fixed his eyes on her breasts.

Her lady wore a thin, close-fitting base, which made her plump breasts look grandly big.

Chen Chen noticed his stare and turned around, covering his face. “Brother Xiao Rui… What… What are you looking at?”

“Because I feel they are obviously bigger.” Jiang Rui licked his lips. Chen Chen was so tired recently that she would fall asleep very quickly at night. She didn’t know that he stripped her naked. Furthermore, the man kissed almost all her body, especially her breasts; he even planned to sleep with her nipple in his mouth.

His patience began to wear out. He wanted Chen Chen, and the beast in his heart wanted him to jump on her immediately.

“I… I’ll go out and see Tuan Zi!” Chen Chen ran out, while Jiang Rui followed her slowly.

Ah Zi made a gesture to quiet them down, and they walked up to the TV.

Bear whispered, “The Internet-connected TV is so convenient!”

“How long has she played?” Jiang Rui asked while pointing his finger at Tuan Zi.

Ah Zi stretched out a finger.

“You don’t have to be so nervous. I won’t be distracted,” Tuan Zi suddenly said loud, “Two keys have been found.”

“Last time you found five in an hour.” Bear stared at the screen. “It seems really difficult.”

Ah Zi said, “What rubbish! Tuan Zi has already broken the record. I have just posted her achievement on the Internet, but lots of people made comments and said that I was boasting. When Tuan Zi goes through the game, let’s post print screens of her achievements on the Internet. Those pictures can reveal the truth and leave them speechless!”

Two hours later, Tuan Zi had found four keys, which made Chen Chen very excited.

“Just one to go!”

“Yeah! Yeah!” Ah Zi nodded hard.

After another half an hour, Tuan Zi suddenly turned around and asked Jiang Rui, “Dad, if sometimes we need to sacrifice something to achieve our goal, shall we continue with it?

“It depends on what your goal is.” Jiang Rui thought for a while and answered, “If what you want to give up is something that matters to you, you have to judge whether the goal is worth giving that up, and whether you’re willing to give it up.”

Tuan Zi tilted her head and asked, “How can I know if it matters to me?”

“You can’t live without it, or you would just live a meaningless life without pleasure. Your life would lose its color. From then on, you would restrict yourself to a world of just missing her; you would die alone.” When Jiang Rui said that, he glanced at Chen Chen’s face with gentleness and dedication of love in his eyes. Unfortunately, her lady was paying attention to the game and neglected that.

“I got it!” Tuan Zi nodded and turned to manipulate the character in the game.

The character she chose was a little girl who took a pet dog with her. The pet dog was not useful, and it would only whimper to respond to you when you fondled it. Tuan Zi found a knife in a drawer, and then a notice appeared that it was a sharp dagger.

“Open the door with a knife?” Ah Zi shook her head. “It will definitely not work. The key must be required.”

However, she saw that Tuan Zi manipulated the character to walk up to the sink in the corner and then to stab herself in the arm with the knife.

A few drops of blood covered the screen, and it was so realistic that Ah Zi and Chen Chen were both shocked.

“Tuan Zi, what are you doing?” Chen Chen raised her daughter’s face. The picture was too bloody. She thought that there was something wrong with Tuan Zi.

Jiang Rui pressed a hand on her shoulder. “Don’t worry. See what happened.”

In the scene, the character was standing by the sink. Her blood flowed down along the arm, slowly filling the sink. When there was a notice that two thirds of the character’s life had been gone, something suddenly happened to the sink.

Tuan Zi manipulated the character to stand up. The originally suspended sink began to sink down gradually, until it landed right on the trace on the ground. Then the blood flowed out through a small round hole. When half the ground was covered with the blinding blood, a key popped out of the sink’s outlet.

“Fuck!” Ah Zi and Bear swore simultaneously.

Ah Zi jumped up. “Who the hell designed this? What a freak!”

“Don’t let Tuan Zi play such a kind of game in the future.” Chen Chen patted her chest. “It’s too bloody.”

Jiang Rui suddenly asked, “Tuan Zi, why didn’t you use the puppy’s blood?”

“Because it represents Hei Zi. I can’t watch my best friend die.” Tuan Zi was manipulating the character to open the door, faced with the sunshine and a vast expanse of flowers. “Daddy just said that, even if I want to achieve the goal, I have to consider whether the sacrifice is worth it.”

Tuan Zi looked up at him. “I don’t think it is worthwhile to sacrifice a friend to achieve my purpose.”

“You’re right.” Jiang Rui touched her head. “My daughter will surely be a good general in the future!”

Ah Zi shouted out loud. “Come and see!”

Ah Zi registered to play the game with her mail account, and at the moment she received an email.

“Congratulations, you are the first player to go through the game. You will have the opportunity as a reward to experience our latest maze game. If you can get out of the maze within twenty-four hours, you will get a legendary prescription!”

The letter bore the signature of “I Am Waiting for You”.

Jiang Rui and Bear’s expressions changed immediately.

“Ah Zi, find out its IP address. Hurry up!” When Jiang Rui was speaking, Bear ran to the door. “I’ll gather the men!”

It was a piece of cake for Ah Zi to find out the IP address, which turned out to be in a net bar. Bear set off quickly and then came back frustrated, two hours later.

“We failed.” He reported to Jiang Rui. “It’s a small net bar, where there are totally fifty desktops. We have questioned all of people there, but found no suspicious person.”

Xiao Si who went along with Bear also said, “Besides, our men who have been monitoring Long Zhen’ao reported that Long had been staying at home today.”

Everyone looked at Jiang Rui, waiting for him to speak.

“Ah Zi, I wonder if it is possible to create a fake IP address.” Jiang Rui still looked calm. “I think it is him.”

“Yes.” Ah Zi nodded. “A computer expert can hack into any computer system and use it as if it were his own.”

Bear said angrily, “What can we do? We couldn’t arrest him because he hadn’t taken action. Now he has, we can’t still arrest him.”

“I think…” Chen Chen raised her hand timidly. “He is challenging us.”

Jiang Rui closed his lips lightly and said, “You’re right.”

He was currently challenging Tuan Zi’s intelligence. If she could go through the game, she was qualified to start the next game. Then he showed the prescription to attract their attention.

“I said yes,” said Tuan Zi, “But I don’t know what he’ll do next.”

Ah Zi pointed to the computer. “He replied to you. It’s a compressed game file.”

“Tuan Zi, now we have to rely on you.” Jiang Rui picked up his daughter. “There are only twenty-four hours left before the deadline, so the game is definitely not easy. You may have to play it for a long time.”

Chen Chen worried about Tuan Zi. “It’s almost night now. We can’t let her stay up late.”

“Mom, so, we will start the game early tomorrow morning!” Tuan Zi said cheerfully, “I also want to have a try!”

Jiang Rui smiled and said to Bear, “Tell Shuixie Restaurant to serve some delicacies. Let’s enjoy a feast and then get down to work tomorrow!”

However, before they finished their pleasant dinner, the phone had rung.

“Xiao Rui, your grandma is missing,” Jiang Qianren said anxiously, on the other side of the phone.

Song Chunli finally began to be sensible a few days prior. After releasing her, Jiang Qianren took her to the plane that night.

“Didn’t you ask your men to send her home?” The first thing on Jiang Rui’s mind was that Song Chunli might have been eager to run away.

As if knowing his thoughts, Jiang Qianren said, “I’m sure that she couldn’t leave on her own.”

Jiang Rui was silent for a moment. “Okay, I’ll send someone to look for her right away.”

“I’ve sent someone out.” Jiang Qianren paused, and said, “I’m worried that they are targeting you.”

There had been terrorists trying to abduct people from the Jiang family to threaten Jiang Rui before, but they never succeeded. During the current period, they were busy in coping with Song Chunli, and forgot that no matter how troublesome she was, she was still Jiang Rui’s grandma.

“I see.” Jiang Rui thought for a moment. “I’ll contact the Wan family. In this regard, they are better-informed. I will let you know if there is any news.”

He hung up and found everyone watching him.

“It’s okay.” Jiang Rui stood up. “I’ll go out and make a call.”

After hearing the news from him, Wan Qingsi nodded and agreed, “It seems that you have been targeted. I suggest taking Liuliu and Tuan Zi back.”

When Ah Zi had an accident, Jiang Rui’s first response was to send Chen Chen and Tuan Zi back to the Wan family. But he knew that Chen Chen was definitely unwilling to go back. He also considered asking Ah Zi to go along with Chen Chen, but Bear disagreed.

Since the enemy had taken the initiative to challenge them, they had to face it. Would they stay on the island for a lifetime? As Xiao Si and Scar said, even if they stayed on the island all their lives, they had to worry whether the enemy would blow up the island someday.
