Chapter 658 - His death is already near.

Feng Yi Lan's gaze lifted to look at the woman before sending an easy worded yet severe warning. "Father might not have cherished this vase enough, that's why you are at such an ease even after ruining it. But I hope you don't judge me in the same light as father. I am Feng Yi Lan, who cherishes her things more than anyone else, especially my soul friend, Li Xue."

The warning was evident in both her words and voice and it was also delivered well as the change in the expression was saying it all. 

Zhen Qinrou was left stiffened at her place. Though she knew that Feng Yi Lan had not heard her words from before, she could not believe that her daughter would become so threatening when it concerned her useless, scandalous friend, Li Xue. What was so great in that woman? Just the thought of seeing her daughter against her for supporting some other woman was enough to put her on the edge. 

"Yi Lan, are you saying that woman is more important to you than me?" the mother asked in a bitter voice, clenching her fingers tight on the sides. 

But Feng Yi Lan did not mind her words, instead she gave a last glance at her before turning on her heels to stroll out the room. "Nevermind, I am not here to waste my words. I have things to look for. Continue whatever you are doing." 

"Yi Lan! Yi Lan …" Seeing her leave just like that, the pitiful mother called from behind but all her calls only went futile. 'Li Xue! Li Xue! I will deal with you before you become a pain in my neck. Just wait for it. She got determined herself as she looked at the distance where Feng Yi Lan had left. 

Right at that moment, a call on her phone interrupted her vicious thoughts. She turned to glance at it thrown on the bed before reaching it to receive. "Hello, Pan Hong, why are you calling me now? Didn't I last say that you can't contact me whenever you want? Last time because of you I almost got caught."

On the other side of the call, hearing the woman lash out like that Pan Hong could no longer control his calm. "Zhen Qinrou, I am not your slave to follow your every command, neither you had paid me with anything to hear your arrogance. It will be better if you don't always be like this to me". 

"You …"

"I have called to inform you that your daughter's beloved, Qi Shuai has gone to dig your deepest secret". Pan Hong said, without giving any chance to the woman to speak up. The stress on his end was already enough and at the present situation he was in no mood to deal with the woman's mood. 

Zhen Qinrou was about to yell at the man when she heard him addressing Qi Shuai as Yi Lan's beloved, but all her previous thoughts escaped out of the window when she heard the latter part of his words. "What did you say?" 

"It's exactly what you are hearing Qinrou. Qi Shuai has left the city two days back and is currently now in the small town behind the Dark Woods." Pan Hong repeated, in better clear words. 

"Qinrou, listen to me. I was …"

"No, you can't leave me alone in this now. You can't …" Not listening to the words of the man from the other end, Zhen Qinrou blabbered on her own. 

"Qinrou …"

"No. If not you, then I would be left with no one. No, you can't leave me". The more she said, the more pitiful she sounded on the call. And seeing your lover in a pitiful state was something not easy to take. 

"RouRou, calm down. I am not dropping you off in the middle. I will never break the words I have given to you. Since I have promised to handle this for you, I will do it till the end" Pan Hong said, persuading the woman to believe his words. 

But Zhen Qinrou was no longer in the state to hear anything out positively. "How will you do that? He is already there and soon will get to know everything. Your man was also under his custody. He must have told him all and now … now I will be finished. I will be finished and no one will be there for me. You are also leaving me now". 

"RuoRuo, don't panic. Nothing will happen to you. I will always be there to keep you safe". Pan Hong said gently coaxing the woman with his words. 

"How will you do that? He is already there and soon he will be back with all evidence in his hands. Then …"

She said and the man interrupted her before she could complete. "He will never be back. Though he will get the evidence, he will never be left alive to present it in front of anyone. I will not let him do that." 

"RuoRuo, I can do anything and everything for you. Believe me. I might not be as sufficient as Feng Yu Hao in the past, but believe me, even in the past and in the present, I am the only person who can cherish you the most in this world," he said, feeling the moment they were in. Just by his voice, one would be able to make out what that moment meant for him. The hopeful longingness in his voice said it all. 

"Ahh, I am relieved now, Pan Hong. Seems like you have not yet gotten useless." She said, before disconnecting the call at once. 

On the other side Pan Hong could only sigh at his situation. It was tough to bear this type of indifference. But it has been so many years that now almost he has become all habituated to it. 

His eyes turned to look at his men. "Go after him now. Keep your eyes at him and his investigation. Let him investigate whatever he wants, but make sure he can not return to the city with the results of those investigations."

"Boss we can kill him directly. Why wait?" Someone asked but Pan Hong shook his head in disapproval. 

"His death is already near. It would not be good to see him die in this situation. So let him investigate as much as he wants".
