Chapter 275 - Surprise for Me to Find

Qiao Shan's brows lifted. Little bun?

Even Li Feng blushed and quickly looked around. "Guangru, t-there's a little bun?!"

"What's the point of looking around if you're going to yell?" Guangru pouted before levitating and reaching out to pet Li Feng's head. "Baba is already a good baba. You have to be at least half the baba that he is,"—a grin showed on his sweet, childish face—"Big Brother."

"Get lost!"

Guangru's joyous chuckling echoed, and almost everyone turned in his direction. The child then ran to his parents and climbed the father's shoulders. He hugged Liu Xiaodan's head and looked like a proper six-year-old. Chuan Nayi even reached out to pet his head.

The dead forest spirit only sighed. "Perhaps, one could indeed dream."

"Do you mean… holy trees make miracles out of humans' wishes?" God Raven chuckled as it recounted the saying of the villagers back in the small place. The Mother only chuckled lightly before detecting a strange flying object overhead. God Raven then hummed. "It's time for them to leave."

A huge helicopter had come to the place. The loud sound disturbed everyone on the ground, and the mercenaries waved their hands. Whew, the final extraction was here. Some more of their brothers jumped down from the helicopter and secured a landing spot. The doors opened, and Mian Bingbing ran to hug her missing son. Li Heilong had appeared… as well as Liu Li and Mian Tianyu.

Liu Xiaodan's eyes widened as he saw his father walking towards him. Liu Li then reached out his hand. "Why are you still standing there? It's best if we could come home before your mother finds out I'm not with her."

"Grandpa, naughty." Guangru laughed out before Liu Xiaodan got him off of his shoulder and handed him to the grandpa. He then led Chuan Nayi to the helicopter. When she got inside, Liu Xiaodan watched how everyone else was getting on the helicopter designed to ferry a lot of people.

Finally, he saw Qiao Shan walk in after Li Feng. She felt his gaze on her, and so she gave him a fearful look. Liu Xiaodan shook his head. "Don't worry, I'm a merciful person to people that mattered to the people that mattered to me. Unless you start scheming against the Li family or anyone close to me, I will forget how you wanted to kill me. Do you understand that?"

"How could you be like this even to me?"

Qiao Shan asked, but Liu Xiaodan only pushed her gently so she would get a spot to sit. He then turned to the view of the marsh before eyeing the two entities that could have come with them. However, Guangru held onto his leg. This place was their home. They never wanted to leave.

Liu Xiaodan only nodded and waved at the two. God Raven and the Mother had already gotten their share of souls from Guangru before the helicopter finally closed the doors and flew up to go back to its hangar. Liu Xiaodan was sat next to Chuan Nayi and faced Li Heilong.

"Are you planning to buy this plot of land?" Liu Xiaodan asked, and it was not something Li Heilong thought of. This plot of land belonged to the Qiao family, and they would never sell it. Then again, it didn't mean that obtaining it legally was not possible. The man who was enduring the medicine that Jiu Yuanli gave him just earlier hummed in return: "Do you want it?"

"My two friends don't want to leave this place. I don't want them to be decimated by those Qiao shamans…"

"Don't worry. The Qiao family would be very busy in the next few days. Are you staying in the capital, or are you going to live with your family?" Li Heilong spoke again, "Of course, after the court accepts Director Sun's letter of recommendation for your release."

A smile curled Liu Xiaodan's lips. He didn't know exactly. Should he leave everything behind?

Chuan Nayi joined the conversation since they were talking about what would happen next. "...are you planning to destroy the Wu family? Wu Zhong had large-chain businesses under his name, right?"

Li Heilong wondered why these questions were coming from them. However, he decided to answer truthfully, "He does, but they're incomparable to the Qiao family's hidden business. Moreover, the Song family would probably try to take over everything. With Wu Zhong gone, his shares would probably be forfeited. The next biggest investor might end up owning it because Wu Zhong has no inheritor."

"Is it possible for you to check again?" Chuan Nayi clutched on her skirt. She had a deal with Wu Zhong. Now that he's really dead, those things that he owned… all of them should be transferred to her name. All the wealth he acc.u.mulated in the past should be hers now.

At these words, Li Heilong seemed to have guessed something. "Do you have a surprise for me to find, Miss Chuan? Are you suddenly going to be one of the most powerful women in the country?"

She wasn't surprised. Actually, she would have doubted Li Heilong if he didn't have guesses at this juncture of the conversation. Still, she decided to flatter him. "I'm not as good as Mr. Li, but if I have the chance, I hope you can guide me."

"Mm… not me. You should learn from the real master." Li Heilong glanced at Mian Bingbing who was quietly sleeping between him and Li Feng. She had been pretty restless. It's good that the long day was about to end.

"Alright." Chuan Nayi chuckled. Yes, perhaps it would be better to learn from the most successful woman in the industry instead. She then turned to Liu Xiaodan to ask what he thought, but he was already sleeping as well. Guangru, who had climbed to his l.a.p, made a shushing gesture.

Yes, perhaps it was good that this day would end as quietly as it came.

When he opened his eyes, the sight in front of him was familiar. However, it was not someplace that he expected to find when he opened his eyes. Ruan Jin didn't know where he was, but he figured it was like a dream. His arms… he could freely move them like his legs. Even if there was still a numbing feeling to each movement, he tried all movements that he could manage lying down.

"Ah… that's it. I'm dead..." Ruan Jin murmured before he received a pull on his cheek. He g.r.o.a.n.e.d from the pain, and his eyes quickly turned to the side to scold whoever dared to pinch his face… but his heart actually skipped a beat when he saw a rather beautiful woman in front of him. Her rosy cheeks were tear-stained, and she was even shaking in her seat.

"That's not funny! Ruan Jin, aren't you too young to follow suit?" Yu Mona sniffled before crying loudly all of a sudden. "Wuwuwu, why do you want to leave me alone, too?"

"Shit! Mom! You're…?" Ruan Jin didn't know what to do, but then Ye Ling's voice chuckled from within. "Ruan Lang, you're back to the city."
