Chapter 593: Skill Exposed

“System.”

[Yes, Master.]

This time, without Mei Shu needing to say much, the system autonomously activated the skill of phasing through walls.

For added security, Feng Wei had locked the door from the outside. Unfortunately, no matter how cautious she was, she could never anticipate that Mei Shu had the system by her side.

Leaving the storage room, the night outside pressed down darkly.

Mei Shu looked up but could only see the vast, boundless sea surrounding them. Their small boat drifted aimlessly forward, its destination unknown.

Apart from the sound of waves crashing against the hull, there was utter silence.

Mei Shu treaded lightly, following the direction of the sound she had heard during the day, slowly approaching the door of the man’s room.

Inside, several faint voices could be heard, the man and someone making calls.

“I’ve already told you, I’ll repay the money 1 owe you! Don’t touch my daughter!”

!!..

“You can do whatever you want to my wife, but if you touch my daughter, you won’t see a penny!”

“I’m begging you, spare my daughter. She’s still young. Don’t hurt her. I promise to pay you three times the principal and interest!”

“Then it’s settled!”

After that, the man hung up, irritably plucked out a SIM card from the phone, and threw it into the sea through the window.

Mei Shu remembered the location of the voice. When steady breathing was heard in the room, she used the Wall Penetration Spell to enter.

The man was sound asleep in bed.

By the moonlight from the window, Mei Shu carefully examined his face and finally remembered where she had seen him.

Wasn’t this Chen Jian, the judge who cheated with Feng Wei during the competition and suffered the consequences?

No wonder he was willing to cooperate with Feng Wei at this time.

Chen Jian had ill intentions towards Feng Wei to begin with. Now that the two of them were both in debt, they would naturally join forces and take the risk.

Now that she knew who the other enemy was, Mei Shu had no interest in observing the man’s sleeping posture. She returned to the desk, grabbed the phone, and quickly lit up the screen.

As expected, there was no signal on the phone.

It indicated that the man was indeed cautious. But this also meant he was prepared for this operation, likely with many spare SIM cards.

Sure enough, Mei Shu found a small box in the drawer without much effort.

She randomly picked a card, keeping an eye on the man’s movements. Confirming he was still asleep, she inserted the card into the phone.

As the screen lit up, this dim corner suddenly brightened like daylight.

Mei Shu’s heart raced as she quickly composed a text message to Lu Si. Then she deleted the record, removed the SIM card, and put the phone back in place.

The whole process was seamless, without any pause, taking less than a minute.

Next, as long as Lu Si followed the signal of this phone, he would easily find her current location.

After completing everything, Mei Shu used the Wall Penetration Spell again to leave.

But as soon as she left the room, she felt a sudden chill on her back.

“Oh, what do 1 see here? Don’t tell me you have superpowers,” the man’s teasing voice suddenly sounded from behind.

It was this voice.

No matter how many years had passed, even if she lived another lifetime, she could never forget it.

A dangerous glint flashed in Mei Shu’s eyes. “Zhang Jiao.”

The man burst into laughter, the knife against Mei Shu’s waist inching forward again. “Look at that, Miss Mei still remembers me. But you can’t call yourself Miss Mei now; you should be called President Mei.”

He curiously approached, sizing Mei Shu up, “Miss Mei, how do you explain what I just saw?”

Mei Shu took a deep breath, turning her head to look at him. “The incident at the hotel was done by Mei Mu, not me trying to harm you.”

“Mei Mu’s target was you,” Zhang Jiao gritted his teeth. “Because of you, I have no face to go out now. The company can’t operate anymore. It closed down a few days ago. How do you think I should settle this debt with you?”

“You colluded with Feng Wei for money too, didn’t you?” Mei Shu sneered at him.

Zhang Jiao, feeling provoked, said menacingly, “I’m here to take your life!”

As he spoke, he and Mei Shu were very close.

Their breaths intertwined, easily bringing back memories of countless nightmares from her past life.

The man’s fierce face, his breath urgent with a masculine scent, the force of his grip on her body, and the torment she endured day and night forced her eyes to turn bloodshot.

Zhang Jiao was startled by her, instinctively wanting to take a step back. But realizing that Mei Shu was now at the mercy of his, he regained his composure. “Don’t look at me like that. I don’t want to kill you right now. I need to know how you managed to pass through a wall out of thin air.”

“Really want to know?” Mei Shu smiled slyly. “Kill them both, and I’ll teach you. How about that?”

“Are you playing games with me?” Zhang Jiao’s tone turned nasty. “Tell me the truth, or I’ll kill you now and throw your body into the sea for the sharks to devour, leaving you without a burial..”
