Chapter 608: Chapter 609: A Grudge Born from a Touch (2)

"It’s nothing."

Gan Yuan took her seat and glanced out of the window, through the airplane’s porthole, she could clearly see Huangfu Jue looking around in the glass corridor. She withdrew her gaze and casually pulled out a magazine to block her face.

On the other side, Jessica removed her baseball cap and lazily leaned back in the chair, "This Duke really is quite infatuated!"

Gan Yuan’s eyes remained on the magazine in front of her, "After arriving in A Country, you need to be careful when you go out. They recognize you."

Jessica curled her lips, "It’s all because of that grey-eyed bastard!"

The grey-eyed bastard?

Gan Yuan glanced sideways at the fuming Jessica, "Are you talking about Will?"

"Whether it’s Will or whiskey," Jessica muttered through clenched teeth, "I’ll chop off his hands first, then castrate him."

She still harbored resentment for Will’s "touch of offense" from before.

Not simply kill him, but first chop off his hands, then castrate him?

Clearly, there was a certain message in this.

Remembering Will had mentioned the tattoo on her body, Gan Yuan cast a sideways glance at her chest and quickly caught on, her lips curving slightly upward. After a moment, she hurriedly reminded her.

"Jessica, I must remind you, we are only here to pick up Xiaotang. We absolutely cannot afford any complications."

Will was Huangfu Jue’s personal assistant, virtually his right-hand man. She couldn’t let Jessica actually harm him.

Jessica was just imagining tearing Will limb from limb when she suddenly snapped back to reality.

"I know, don’t worry. I won’t mess around now, but..." She huffed coldly, "once all this is over, I’ll definitely take care of him!"

Gan Yuan let out a silent sigh of relief, yet felt somewhat helpless inside. How had Will gotten tangled up with this girl?

In the past few days, she had gotten to know a bit about Jessica. Although not quite as skilled as herself, Jessica was not someone to be trifled with, and if she really set her sights on Will, he was probably in for some real trouble.

It seemed that she would have to find a way to warn Will in the future.

Of course, those were matters for later. Right now, with her there to keep things under control, Jessica had neither the inclination nor the opportunity to provoke Will.

Now, she needed to seriously consider how to quickly investigate Qian Xueying’s situation upon returning to A Country. There was still a pile of things waiting for her on Moses’s side; she couldn’t afford to stay in A Country for too long.

As the airplane ascended to the skies, she fell into deep thought.

"Actually..." Jessica leaned closer, "I have an idea."

"What idea?" Gan Yuan turned towards her.

"We could sneak into the Royal Palace and whisk the little one away."

"No way!" Gan Yuan immediately rejected her proposal. Not to mention her true purpose wasn’t to bring Xiaotang back—if it even were so, this was not a good suggestion, "The Royal Palace is heavily guarded. Right now, Xiaotang is with the Queen; we don’t stand a chance."

"Is the Queen really that formidable?" Jessica asked curiously.

"I’ve never encountered her in combat, but..." Gan Yuan’s expression grew serious, "I’ve heard the Duke mention the Queen’s younger days. She managed to escape unscathed several times despite the King’s tight surveillance."

Surprise showed on Jessica’s face, "It seems that plan won’t work, then. What do you plan to do?"

Gan Yuan closed her eyes against the back of the chair, "We’ll play it by ear."

Seeing that she evidently didn’t want to discuss it further, Jessica got the hint and quieted down, not saying anything more.
