"Miss Lin, where are you going?" Jiang Fang asked in confusion.
Lin Wan Bai's hands tightly clenched as he spat out a space. "Hong Kong!"
"Hong Kong?" Jiang Fang was shocked, even Lawyer Wang beside her also looked at her.
"That's right." Lin Wan Bai nodded and stood up from the sofa. Although she was a little stiff, her back was very straight. "Jiangshu, I still need to trouble you to find information about the Baiya Group for me when I get back!"
Hearing that, Jiang Fang immediately understood, "Yes, I understand!"
Because of the time reservations and her request for the fastest plane, she flew away that night.
Lin Wan Bai also did not pack his luggage. He only found a backpack and placed two change clothes inside it. After receiving the news, Huo Rong came over that night.
"Bai Cai, are you really going to Hong Kong?"
"Mm …" Lin Wan Bai nodded.
"You want to persuade the other party to withdraw their complaint?" Huo Rong swept a glance at the information on the table, and instantly understood her intentions. Although he didn't want to strike a blow against her, she still frowned and spoke the truth, "This is completely impossible, my brother and I have long used all our connections, if possible, Chang Yuan would have come out long ago! Besides, that Old Dong is an old man who is already old. He seems to be a gangster in his early years, and is especially not to be trifled with. He has a temper that is even more stubborn than my brother, and is also very hard to talk about! "
Lin Wan Bai pursed his lips, "I just wanted to give it a try …"
How could Huo Rong not know? She really wanted to do something for her nephew; even if she knew that it was completely useless, she did not want to give up that sliver of hope.
Sighing, Huo Rong sat down and said, "The majority of the people there speak Cantonese, do you understand? "Furthermore, Hong Kong has always been rather chaotic and unfamiliar with its surroundings. Can a girl like you go there?"
"It's alright …" Lin Wan Bai shook his head, his eyes not showing any fear.
"No, I'm still worried. I'll go with you!" Huo Rong said as she frowned.
"Don't worry, I'm not a child!" Lin Wan Bai laughed, and then sat beside Huo Rong and gently pulled her hand, "Aunt, I am just trying to do my best, but I can't mess things up. You can't leave now, you have to stay in Ice City, Huo Chang Yuan still needs you!"
Her words were true, Huo Rong couldn't leave right now.
Huo Chang Yuan was currently locked up in the police station, there were many follow-up matters that needed to be dealt with by himself.
"Alright!" "I will arrange for someone to meet you in Hong Kong and take you to a hotel. Then, I will help you look up their schedule.
After sending Huo Rong off, Lin Wan Bai went upstairs to the children's room.
The little bun had already laid down and rolled into her arms after seeing her. However, he knew that she wasn't here to sleep with him and hadn't changed into any pajamas. She was wearing an outdoor outfit.
Lin Wan Bai caressed his small face and said softly, "Darling, I might be out for another two or three days. You stay home obediently with Aunt Li by your side!"
"Wan Wen, do you want to go on a date with Dung?" Little bun pouted.
"No …" Lin Wan Bai slowly shook his head.
"Then can you take the baby with you?" The little bun asked again.
"You can't …" Lin Wan Bai still shook her head, holding his small face and lovingly kissed him. She said in a serious tone, "My darling, wait at home, Dung and I will be back soon, okay?"
The little bun met her gaze for two seconds and nodded heavily, "The baby will be very obedient ~"
"Thank you, darling!" Lin Wan Bai was pleased.
In the middle of the night, she gently removed her hand from the sleeping little bun and put her raised arm under the blanket. After tucking it back in, she walked out of the children's room with a relieved expression.
After putting on his backpack and walking out of the villa, Uncle Li was already waiting for him in the courtyard.
When she arrived at the airport at one in the morning, she immediately checked in. Since there was no need to check on the luggage, she quickly queued up to check on the security. At night, the airport lobby also seemed a lot quieter.
Other than the occasional broadcast, the voices of the people had been lowered.
After boarding the plane, Lin Wan Bai sat at a seat close to the window.
Through the narrow window, he could see the moon hanging high in the deep blue sky. It was so round.
Lin Wan Bai lowered his head and looked at the phone in his hand. On the screen, it was the text message that Huo Chang Yuan had sent before, "Don't be afraid."
She ran her fingers back and forth over the two words.
In his heart, he was muttering to himself.
A patrolling flight attendant walked over and lightly patted her shoulder to remind her, "I'm sorry Madam, the plane is about to take off. For your safety, please turn off your cell phone!"
"Okay, thanks!" Lin Wan Bai regained his senses.
She turned the phone off and put it back in her bag. Then she leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes.
She wasn't holding on. She really wasn't afraid …
After a few hours of flight, when she landed, it was already the morning of the second day. Lin Wan Bai walked out of the airport with his backpack on his back, and the people Huo Rong sent over were already waiting for her at the exit for a long time.
When she reached the hotel, instead of going in, she gave the man her backpack and asked him to help her get a room while she turned around and hailed a taxi.
Actually, it was still early, it was only around seven o'clock, but how could she continue staying here? According to the itinerary Huo Rong had given her, she would directly go there and wait in advance.
It was a golf club, the location easy to find, but Lin Wan Bai had not opened his business when he arrived. It was different from home, only being ten o'clock was considered the real start of the day.
When it was almost noon, a long black Bentley stopped in front of the door. The driver with white gloves ran down and respectfully opened the door.
Then, an old man in a black tai chi suit walked down with a walking stick. He was around seventy years old with silver hair at his temples. However, his complexion was healthy and he had a ruddy complexion.
Lin Wan Bai recognized him with a glance. It was the Bai Ya Group's Old Dong.
"Elder Li, please wait!"
The old man stopped in his tracks unhappily when he was called.
However, he had only stopped for a moment. He glanced at her and walked forward without a care in the world.
Although Lin Wan Bai was afraid, he had no choice but to chase after them, and shouted loudly from the back, "Hello Elder Li, I am Lin Wan Bai. I came over from Ice City, and I have disturbed you indiscriminately because I want to talk about Huo Chang Yuan …"
Hearing this, the old man once again stopped his steps, but the expression on his face instantly became even angrier.
"Who are you?" He asked her in a harsh tone.
Lin Wan Bai clenched his teeth and blurted out, "... I am his wife! "
