Song Huaishu felt as if he had just seen Huo Jiuxiao get out of the car from the backseat when he suddenly felt a cool breeze caress his face. When he got a clear look, he saw Huo Jiuxiao carrying Lin Wanli, who had jumped on him, with a frown.

“Why aren’t you turning around?”

Song Huaishu quickly turned around.

“Are you that impatient? You didn’t even wear your shoes.” Huo Jiuxiao looked down at Lin Wanli’s fair feet and led her into the house.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“I have a feeling that you’re not actually coming back home to stay. I’m afraid that you’ll leave again when I put on my shoes.” Lin Wanli hung on Huo Jiuxiao’s body and looked into his eyes.

Huo Jiuxiao replied calmly, “I’m going to Southeast Asia to save someone.”

[Is it because you missed me?]

Lin Wanli looked at Huo Jiuxiao, her eyes were like waves of passionate emotions.

She didn’t say anything, but the voice in her heart was very passionate.

“Help me pack a few clothes.” Huo Jiuxiao patted her butt.

“Alright.” After entering the bedroom, Lin Wanli jumped down from Huo Jiuxiao’s body, took out a suitcase, and helped him pack a few clothes.

After she was done, she ran to the children’s room and took a small toy from Youran. It was a little rabbit’s teether. It was pink and adorable. She stuffed it into Huo Jiuxiao’s suitcase. Finally, she pulled the handle of the suitcase and pushed it in front of Huo Jiuxiao. She said, “Alright.”

Huo Jiuxiao looked at the sweat on her forehead and wiped it away. He asked,

“Nothing else you want to say to me?”

Lin Wanli shook her head and replied, “I’ve said what I needed to say.”

Huo Jiuxiao nodded and took the suitcase from her hands. He then pinched her chin and asked for a kiss. The kiss between the two of them had never been gentle. Most of the time, it was fierce, hot, with desire and conquest. At this moment, Lin Wanli seemed to have tasted something different from this kiss.

“Wait for me to come back.”

Huo Jiuxiao turned around and left the bedroom with his luggage. Lin Wanli stood in the bedroom, unable to calm down for a long time.

[I’ll wait for you forever.]

Huo Jiuxiao was just outside the door. He only left after hearing Lin Wanli’s last thought.

Downstairs, Song Huaishu saw Huo Jiuxiao come out with his luggage and quickly went up to take it. In fact, he was already overjoyed.

[Master Xiao misses Madam, right? When did he bring any luggage when going on a business trip?]

Huo Jiuxiao glanced at Song Huaishu, who didn’t know he was listening to him.

“After I leave, send more security guards to Yujing Peak. Although Yan Qiu is skilled, it’s not enough.”

He also asked Duan Yanxing to secretly watch Lin Wanli. This person had always been his trump card to deal with the Huo family and was extremely secretive. But now, before he left, the first thing he thought of was to arrange for her protection. Because of what she said in the morning, if anything happened to him, she might really reveal their relationship.

But why did he care? Was it really because he missed her?

In the past, when he thought of death, he felt relieved. However, when he thought of death now, Lin Wanli’s face and Huo Youran’s cute penguin-like appearance in the yard automatically appeared in his mind.

“Master Xiao, don’t worry. Madam is not to be trifled with.” Song Huaishu had been enjoying himself for the whole day. He felt that Lin Wanli was simply the female lead of a great novel.

Huo Jiuxiao stopped talking after getting into the car. However, not long after he set off, his phone screen lit up.

Lin Wanli sent a photo. In the photo, Lin Wanli was squatting in the lower left corner. She was wearing a white dress, and only half of her body could be seen. In front of her, Youran smiled as she ran towards her.

“Isn’t this cute to be a screensaver?”

Huo Jiuxiao’s phone was extremely simple, and the screensaver was still the default wallpaper.

Then, he set the photo as a screensaver as she wished, and sent her a message,

“Front.”

“What front?”

“Frontal picture of you.”

“No, I’ll wait for you to come back to see me,” replied Lin Wanli.

Although the two of them had never said it out loud, Lin Wanli knew very well that Huo Jiuxiao does not seek to live whenever he does something. Therefore, whether it was the photos or the Youran toys stuffed in his suitcase, it was all to remind him that there was someone waiting at home and someone in the world to worry about.

Speaking of which, although there were many photos of Huo Jiuxiao on the internet, Lin Wanli’s phone didn’t have any private photos of him. She just wanted to do everything she could to make him stay. Otherwise, why would she leave a photo of him, an inanimate object, for her to break down when he’s gone?

At 5:30 in the morning, the nurse on duty in the hospital used Qin Huaijing’s phone to call the emergency contact. The nurse thought that this contact should be from the Lin family. She did not know that the person who answered the phone was Ye Weiyin.

“Hello, this is Jinchuan Third City Hospital. Are you Qin Huaijing’s family? The patient is currently receiving treatment in the hospital. Please come over to take care of him and settle the fees.”

“May I ask why he was hospitalized?” Ye Weiyin asked softly.

“I don’t know the exact situation, but I think he was beaten up. Please come to the hospital as soon as possible. Thank you.”

After saying that, the nurse hung up the phone.

Ye Weiyin was speechless for a long time.

Because she really did not expect Lin Wanli to be so… ruthless.

“Mom, what’s wrong? What happened?” Ye Zhenzhen asked when she saw Ye Weiyin’s expression, “Your hands are so cold too.”

“Your father has been beaten up and he landed himself in the hospital.”

“How did this happen? Wasn’t he fine when he left?” Ye Zhenzhen was a little surprised. She asked, “Could it be… Lin Wanli taking revenge?”

“If it’s really Lin Wanli, we have to hurry up and get your good friend Nan Xing to test the waters. At the same time, let her find out if Lin Wanli and the two men from the Chinese Chamber of Commerce are having an affair. If so, we have to think of a way to find evidence. We can’t let Lin Wanli always get help,” said Ye Weiyin in a deep voice.

“But Mom, Lin Wanli can always find different men to sacrifice herself to,” said

Ye Zhenzhen.

In Ye Zhenzhen’s heart, she would never admit that Lin Wanli was stronger than her. Therefore, she could only keep hinting to herself that Lin Wanli had a man’s help and that Lin Wanli was constantly sacrificing her body in exchange for it.

“Do what I tell you to do first. Do you know where you’re losing to Lin Wanli now? She had long seen through you, but you… can’t see through her at all.” Ye Weiyin snorted coldly, “Calm down and take it slow. Whoever is impatient first will be defeated. Your father is the best example. As long as the old lady is still on our side, the odds of winning will always be on our side.”

“Then Dad…’

“Let Xu Menglan go over and take care of him first. Tomorrow morning, you can go over and calm your father down. Although he’s useless now, we can’t let him fall into Lin Wanli’s hands. That won’t do us any good.” Ye Zhenzhen agreed, “1 understand, Mom.”

At this moment, they could only let Xu Menglan go over.

Therefore, Xu Menglan could only withdraw from her mission of finding Lin Xueyi and head to the hospital to treat the seriously injured Qin Huaijing.

And this news dealt another heavy blow to Xu Menglan.

Because she knew that this was Lin Wanli’s revenge. Lin Wanli could really go and kill someone ruthlessly even if they were family…

Xu Menglan didn’t dare to slack off on the Ye family’s mother and daughter’s orders. She asked Lin Wanli for instructions.

“Little Miss, what should I do now?”
