Horse-farm's VIP lounge.
With the help of some specialized doctors and nurses coming over to help him with his injuries, it was unknown if it was due to the blessing of the heavens, but Lin Wan Bai's injuries were not serious at all, but his clothes were thin and his skin was almost all scraped off, especially his forehead which was hit by blood, and the twisted wound on his left wrist.
However, this was already a blessing …
After taking care of his injuries, Lin Wan Bai walked out from the room.
This time, Elder Li did not go back on her words and ended the business negotiation as promised. She also dismissed the two ferocious looking bodyguards, leaving only her grandson behind and giving her some time.
Li Jiang Nan passed the tea cup to her, "Miss Lin, drink a cup of hot tea!"
"Thank you …" Lin Wan Bai thanked him.
The walking stick in Elder Li's hand stood at the side of the armrest, in his hand was a teacup, the white smoke was rising, his old eyes were staring straight at her, "Little girl, you won the competition with your life on the line, I will not go back on my words, I will listen attentively next!"
Hearing Elder Li calling him a little girl, Lin Wan Bai felt a little embarrassed in his heart.
Although her seniority wasn't different from the other party, her age couldn't be considered to be so …
Lin Wan Bai's expression turned serious, and said, "Elder Li, I hope that you can withdraw from the case!"
"On what basis?" The Elder Li asked.
"…" Lin Wan Bai pursed his lips.
She was stumped by such a direct question because she couldn't answer it. The other party had lost a lot of money to sue him for defending his rights and interests. He was neither relative nor friends, and there was no reason for him to call off the lawsuit, since no one was his savior.
Lin Wan Bai clenched his teeth, and said resolutely, "Huo Chang Yuan was wrongly accused!"
After the Elder Li heard this, he remained unmoved, and said slowly while sipping his tea, "Really? However, I do not think so. To take a step back, if he was truly wronged, then you do not have to worry about it. Furthermore, you do not have to beg me here! "
"…" Lin Wan Bai was speechless.
Elder Li put down the teacup in her hand, a look of surprise in her eyes.
He seemed to know that he would never have expected a weak girl like her to jump on the bungee jumping platform and do such a suicidal action. If it wasn't for his good luck today, not to mention getting disabled, she might even have lost her life here.
However, when he walked over to her, she didn't even think about those things. She only thought about the opportunity to plead for her man.
"Little girl, I understand your feelings. I also admire your courage!" "Although I know that the Huo Family has a lot of influence in the Ice City, they can't be merciful. I suggest that you waste your time here, so you should find a good lawyer for him. At the very least, when the court passes judgement, he can get a better result!"
Lin Wan Bai's curled up fingers had all the nails pierced into the palm of his hand.
"Elder Li, Huo Chang Yuan was truly wronged!" "I won't hide it from you. In fact, Huo Chang Yuan's father, Chairman Huo, has always been against me being with him, and the daughter in law of Chairman Huo's heart has never been chosen by me, nor did she agree to let him marry me …"
"For more than once, Huo Chang Yuan has disobeyed his father, and he has already decided not to continue being the CEO of the Hauptmann's anymore. He is going to bring me out of the Ice City!"
When the Elder Li heard this, he exclaimed in shock, "You don't love the mountains and rivers and the beauties?"
"What a bold man!" Li Jiang Nan, who was listening quietly from the side, also chimed in.
Although he was already sitting very straight, Lin Wan Bai still straightened his back, and said word by word with certainty, "So, Elder Li, Huo Chang Yuan can even reject the position of CEO who has inherited the businesses of Hauptmann's, how can he possibly have the ill will to empty your money? I can use my own personality to guarantee that Huo Chang Yuan is definitely not that kind of person! "
Elder Li frowned slightly. Even though his expression loosened a bit, he quickly sneered, "Perhaps, the reason he is doing this is to scrape some money to live with you abroad!"
"Mr. Elder Li!"
Lin Wan Bai clenched his fists tightly.
This way, she had heard it before when she was in the Public Security Bureau. Although she knew that people who didn't understand could have this kind of misunderstanding, she still felt very angry after hearing it. She swallowed and felt calmer, and then spoke again, "He won't, I believe him! I think you also had a lover who understood that feeling. Even if the whole world doesn't believe it, she will believe you! "
When Lin Wan Bai said these words, his eyes shone with the light of firm trust.
She was clearly sitting with her back to the window, and the sunlight was shining all around her, but the light in her eyes was even brighter, brighter than the diamonds in her hands, so bright that it was hard to look directly at.
Elder Li was dazed for a moment, then he lowered his head and used his hand to stroke the white beard that hung below his chin.
Lin Wan Bai held his breath, knowing that the other party was making a decision.
After a while, Elder Li finally raised his head again. He shook his head and said, "Little girl, my apologies. Your trip to Hong Kong is going to be a waste.
Lin Wan Bai's heart that was hanging in the air was instantly suppressed by the heavy stones.
The saliva that was stuck in his throat was forcefully swallowed back down. His mouth was filled with the bitter taste of being lost.
Still not successful...
Although she had never been sure that she would succeed when Jiang Fang booked her on a plane, deep down she still had a sliver of hope, so she would not be surprised, but she still felt that she would be very disappointed. However, she had expected this kind of result, and prepared for the worst.
Because she had already made up her mind. If he was really sentenced to death, she would be prepared to wait for him to come out!
Elder Li also saw through her thoughts from the expression on her face and she couldn't help but be shocked again.
Lin Wan Bai knew that no matter how he tried to persuade him, it was useless. The other party had already made up his mind, and although he was unwilling, he could only exhale. He got up from the sofa and nodded, "Mr. Elder Li, sorry to disturb you!"
After which, he walked out of the lounge.
"Miss Lin, I'll send you out!"
Lin Wan Bai turned his head and saw Li Jiang Nan catching up to him.
When they were at the arena, she was carried to the resting area on a stretcher by the doctors and nurses. She wasn't very clear about the structure of the Horse-farm, so she didn't decline.
Li Jiang Nan comforted her, "Grandfather also had his reason for doing this."
"Mm …" Lin Wan Bai nodded.
She did not blame Elder Li, and it was understandable that he would not agree.
After walking out of the Horse-farm, Lin Wan Bai turned around, wanting to thank him. She opened her mouth, but didn't know how to address him until now.
