Nine Rings C52
by MarineTL — Chapter 52: Gan Ji’s Risky Move Hou Jinshan made it pretty clear—he had no intention of letting me go any further. But I’ve always had a rebellious streak. I hate following rules, especially when they’re shoved in my face. The more he tried to shut me out, the more determined I became to stick with the team and keep moving forward. We got back in the car. The rain had stopped, and the sun broke through quickly, causing the temperature to spike. One by one, we started peeling off our jackets.…

Nine Rings C51
by MarineTL — Chapter 51: Muddy Waters I never expected to see Yu Jingzi under these circumstances. Her sudden appearance caught me completely off guard. I hid behind Xiao Wu, sneaking glances at their group taking shelter from the rain—there were a lot of them, at least a dozen. Four Hummers were parked in front of the restaurant. Yu Jingzi was dressed lightly—a black athletic jacket over a camisole that dipped almost to her chest. She walked in, found a seat, and began ordering food with her people. Compared…

Nine Rings C50
by MarineTL — Chapter 50: Into the Mountains The car stopped near the reservoir, and Hou Jinshan sent me another location. The spot he gave was remote, the kind of place only hardcore wild fishing enthusiasts would frequent. Xiao Wu and I trudged through the tall grass for ages before finally reaching the place. As soon as we arrived, we saw Hou Jinshan crouched by the water, seemingly unable to get up. When he saw me, he looked like he'd just spotted his savior. “Oh, thank god you're here, Young Master Gan! Look…

Nine Rings C49
by MarineTL — Chapter 49: Songjiachang Reservoir After six months of digging through data, Hou Jinshan finally concluded that the Nieyao Divine Mountain was actually Shennongjia in Hubei. But up to this point, it was still just an educated guess based on basic information—he had no way to confirm it for certain. So he began searching for the whereabouts of the Nine-Ring Jade Casket, hoping to see it again. As we talked, Xiao Wu caught my look and went to lock the door. I pulled the Jade Casket out of my bag and…

Nine Rings C48
by MarineTL — Chapter 48: Ghost Mountain It was two days later when I finally got another call from Hou Jinshan. The bastard had just gotten off the train at nine in the morning and was already sitting in the private room I’d reserved, waiting for me. I’m not a morning person, so I basically just splashed some water on my face and stumbled out the door half-asleep. I was in a foul mood, and even my footsteps carried a stormy air. Xiao Wu had handled things well. He’d booked a room near the stairs, where there…

Nine Rings C47
by MarineTL — Chapter 47: Setting the Table It was both a threat and an invitation. Someone from the shadows was urging me to investigate that old project, even going so far as to "thoughtfully" include two pages from the records—names and handwriting deliberately faded—just in case I didn’t get the hint. But why me? Why insist that I be the one to look into this? What if I just walked away and ignored it? Tian Xiao is still living peacefully with the Tian Family. If they wanted to uncover the truth about that…

Nine Rings C46
by MarineTL — Chapter 46: The Recorder As I was opening it, I reached into the file envelope and felt around. There was a noticeable bulge inside—probably photos or something similar. I took a utility knife and sliced the envelope open, then turned it upside down. Several photographs slid out immediately and landed in my hands. I only caught a glimpse before I was so startled I threw the envelope away. My heart began pounding wildly. It’s hard to describe exactly what was in the photos. Even though I only glanced…

Nine Rings C45
by MarineTL — Chapter 45: The File Folder After the police finished questioning me and taking my statement, they left. I sat in the chair, watching Xiao Wu direct people to clean up the scattered account books on the floor, my mind still in a daze. "Young Master, stop thinking about it. It’s definitely that bastard Hou Jinshan! Didn’t you say he tried to steal our box on the train? And now, right after that Lu family heir left, our shop gets hit—who else could it be?!" Xiao Wu squatted on the floor, gathering…
