Long Yi is a martial artist. Just now, he clearly heard Wushuang murmuring the words "General Longze." His intuition told him that this beautiful girl must know him and have some deep connection with him.
Wushuang stood there with tear-filled eyes. Yezi observed the gaze exchanged between them; regardless of whether it was right or wrong, they couldn't let the two men in the café across see it, especially Mike.
Yezi glanced in the direction across the street and pulled Wushuang into a more crowded corner to block their view. Long Yi closely followed Wushuang, going wherever she went.
When he reached Wushuang's side, she had already thrown herself into his arms, sobbing with a hoarse voice, repeatedly saying, "Is it really you, General? Did you really come to pick up Shuang'er?"
"Shuang'er... my princess...?" Long Yi did not reject her embrace; instead, he wrapped his arms around her. Hearing her softly call out "Shuang'er," he instinctively uttered those four words without any hesitation.
Misa felt something was off about Long Yi. After finishing her last bite of pudding, she picked up her bag and walked toward that corner. However, the scene before her nearly took her breath away—her beloved Long Yi was tightly holding another woman in this secluded corner? How could this be? What was going on?
Misa rushed forward, separating Long Yi from Wushuang, grabbing Long Yi's arm angrily and saying, "Long Yi, what are you doing?"
Misa spoke to Long Yi in Japanese, so Wushuang couldn't understand her at all. However, Yezi, being a native Japanese speaker, looked at the suddenly appearing girl with a strange expression.
Seeing that the girl seemed to want to take General Longze away from her, Wushuang panicked and immediately shouted, "General Longze, where are you going? Are you really going to abandon Shuang'er?"
Long Yi shook off Misa's hand and stepped forward to tightly grasp Wushuang's hand. Looking at her tear-red eyes, he gently asked her, "Am I really General Longze?"
"You... why do you ask that? If you're not General Longze, then who else could you be?" Wushuang gasped at his sudden question. The hands he held were so tense that they began to sweat lightly.
Misa was pushed aside by Long Yi and overheard their conversation. She thought she understood what was happening. Approaching Wushuang and Yezi, she spoke fluent Chinese to explain to Wushuang: "A few months ago, I brought the bloodied Long Yi home. He was unconscious for several months and when he woke up, he remembered nothing except for his belongings; his identity was a mystery."
When Wushuang heard Misa say that he had suffered severe injuries leading to amnesia, it felt like a needle piercing her heart. She remembered that day when he was shot with an arrow; his wounds had been bleeding continuously because he had rushed out of the palace with her.
"Wushuang, if you need time to talk things over, this isn't the place for family reunions. Mike is still watching us from across the café. If you have something important to say, you'll have to make it brief; we still need to take you back to the castle later." Yezi's heart was twisted in knots as she feared that the two men across would notice something amiss between them.
Upon hearing that she would be taken back to the castle, Wushuang's face drained of color. Long Yi looked at Shuang'er like this and frowned deeply. He protectively embraced her and gently comforted her by whispering in her ear: "Don't be afraid. Since you are my princess and I am your general, I will protect you and won't let you get hurt. I will take you away from that castle that terrifies you!"
"No! You can't take Wushuang away! If she doesn't go back today, it will be a huge problem; there are two men in the café across watching our every move! We can't leave!" Yezi sensed what Wushuang was thinking but didn't realize the consequences of running away again; that perverted man would not let her go.
Misa heard this and glanced at Long Yi and the girl’s intimate actions. Suppressing her displeasure deep inside, she knew this wasn't the time for anger or feeling wronged. She took Wushuang's hat and put it on her head. Looking at Yezi beside her, she shot her a glare: "From your way of speaking, you should be Japanese? Then you must know about Japan's Three Kingdoms?"
Yezi thought for a moment and nodded in response but wondered what Misa was trying to achieve by asking these questions at such a critical moment.
"My name is Yamamoto Misa. The leader of the Three Kingdoms is my father, so you all need to leave through the back door immediately. I will have a plane ready, and Long Yi will take you away from here directly to the Yamamoto Family in Japan!" The reason Misa did this was simple: it was all because of love.
She loved Long Yi, and now that Long Yi had finally found someone who knew his identity, regardless of their relationship, she would protect this girl's safety until all the mysteries were clarified.
"This..." Wushuang knew how powerful that man was. The last time she was sold onto a ship, he managed to find her and bring her back within a day. This time, he would surely be able to find her again.
"Stop talking so much, Wushuang. If you really don't want to go back, just listen to Miss Yamamoto and leave right now!" Yezi understood what the Three Kingdoms meant. If the Three Kingdoms could protect them, then Wushuang would be free.
Yan Wushuang lifted her small face to look at Long Yi in front of her. Long Yi nodded, caressing her cheek and softly said, "Come with me, my princess!"
Just those words solidified Wushuang's heart. With red-rimmed eyes, she nodded slightly; from now on, she never wanted to be apart from the general again.
"You three go together. I need to find two people to impersonate you. Hurry up and leave!" Misa urged them. Although Yezi didn't want to leave, for the sake of the current situation, she had no choice but to temporarily part from Faisal. She would explain everything later; if she didn't leave, that terrifying leader would definitely kill her.
Long Yi led Wushuang and Yezi quietly out through the back door of the Ice House. Misa spent some money to have a girl of similar build to Wushuang wear Wushuang's hat and sit in a conspicuous spot inside the Ice House eating food, allowing the two people across from her to see that sun hat and mistakenly think it was Wushuang sitting there.
Inside the café, Shouya leisurely picked up his coffee cup and took a sip. Such a relaxed afternoon life was truly enjoyable.
Mike occasionally glanced over at the Ice House across the street. There were too many people inside; he could only see Miss Wushuang's conspicuous sun hat. Checking the time, they had been inside for about an hour. His coffee had already been replaced with a second cup, yet he still hadn't seen them come out!
"Mike, don't worry. It's normal for girls to love ice cream. We'll wait ten more minutes before going over to get them," Shouya said while looking toward the Ice House. They were still sitting there; why worry unnecessarily?
At the same time, Long Yi was already on the helicopter with Wushuang and Yezi waiting. When he saw Misa appear, Long Yi smiled in relief; after waiting for more than ten minutes, he thought she might have been targeted.
"Let's hurry up and take off! We need to fly back to Japan immediately!" Misa said as she looked at everyone safely gathered together. She thought those people were formidable? They were easily deceived by her.
Wushuang watched as the helicopter slowly flew away from the city. Looking at General Longze and Yezi beside her, she wondered if she was dreaming. Could she really be free? But why did she feel an unsettling sense of anxiety?
It felt as if after all this calmness, there would be a volcanic eruption of danger...
"Thank you, Misa!" Long Yi expressed his gratitude toward this girl. If it weren't for her insistence, he wouldn't have woken up from his coma; if it weren't for her bringing him to Las Vegas City, he wouldn't have met this princess who occupied his dreams.
Misa lowered her head and sighed, unsure how to respond. Seeing him being so gentle and warm with a girl he had only known for less than an hour made her heart ache with jealousy—yes, she was jealous; she was jealous of that girl!
"Don't say anything right now. Once we get back to Japan, I want to hear her explanation!" Misa pointed at Wushuang; she wanted to know everything about Long Yi and more importantly, what kind of relationship existed between him and Wushuang.
Yan Wushuang nodded. She would gradually tell General Longze everything between them. Although he had amnesia and did not remember who he was, his earlier reaction told her that deep down in the general's heart, he had always been thinking of her.
The moment their eyes met, his reaction already indicated to her that he had always remembered himself, always...
Inside Monica Tower, Rafas suddenly discovered that the micro-crystal tracker in Yan Wushuang's jade pendant showed that she had left Las Vegas. What on earth was going on?
Shouya and Mike had just arrived in front of Ice House when Mike received a call from Rafas. His brow furrowed, and without having time to explain too much to Shouya, he rushed into Ice House, searching for the sun hat among the crowd.
When Mike reached their table, the girl wearing the hat was not Miss Wushuang at all, and Yezi was nowhere to be seen. Shouya followed him in and was even more shocked to roll her eyes at the reality before her.
"I'm sorry, Master. Miss Wushuang has gone missing!" Mike picked up his phone and reported hoarsely to Rafas on the other end of the line.
"Useless fools... You two men can't even keep track of one woman. Go find her immediately!" Rafas exploded in anger in his office. His mood, which had been good, was now a stormy mess.
His fury could be clearly heard outside the office, accompanied by the sound of things breaking inside. Everyone dared not approach the office, fearing they might lose their jobs if they were not careful.
Mike immediately questioned the girl in the store. According to her, a young and beautiful girl had given her money to wear this hat and sit here eating slowly.
Rafas had already tracked Yan Wushuang's location to Mike's phone. Looking at the geographical location on the screen, she had already left Las Vegas. It was impossible for just those two girls to leave so quickly in such a short time!
Faisal also received notification; damn it, even his woman had run away. However, Yezi's current relationship with him made it impossible for her to escape. Even if she did run away, she wouldn't have the ability to take Yan Wushuang with her. Everything pointed to them being kidnapped.
