Chapter 110: Escape
hrough impatiently saying "What's the matter Get to the point, I'm busy."The middle-aged man suppressed his urge to yell and forced a smile, saying, “You’ve worked hard today. You caught someone, he s...Wang Lin stopped his steps, showing a thoughtful expression. Then, he showed an interested look.
How to buy it
Seeing Wang Lin stop and ask, Xiong Shu felt a wave of relief in his heart. If Wei Shao had gotten into trouble today, he would have faced severe punishment from Xie Jia upon returning home, perhaps even being dealt with directly by the head of the family in a fit of rage.
"I'll give you a million, you'll leave Wei Shao's tongue to him."
"Hmph! You think I'm doing this for money After you insult my fiancee, how could I let you get away with it!" He was about to charge forward again.
"Five million! I offer five million! Please show mercy and spare Westbrook. Five million is the limit of my available funds."
"You wouldn't be thinking of fulfilling all my demands today and then having someone buy them back at a higher price afterwards, would you"
Bear Uncle was obviously taken aback by Wang Lin's words, and then a chill ran down his spine, "Was I guessed"
Wang Lin looked at Xiong Shu's expression, confirming that he had guessed correctly, and a slight smile appeared.
Then five million! I'll be waiting for your revenge, but next time, I won't let you off so easily!
Seeing that Wang Lin wasn't afraid of their revenge at all, Xiong Shu was astonished once again.
This person can say this, either they are extremely confident in their own abilities, or they are a fool. But since they can guess my thoughts, how could they be a fool Revenge is something that needs to be carefully considered.
He waved his hand, gave an embarrassed smile, and showed a look of panic.
"How is that possible! We would never retaliate. What Wei Shao did was wrong, and I apologize to you on his behalf."
"Well, besides the five million, I hope this Weezy can tell me where my fiancée is."
"Isn't this natural, Xiao Wei"
Wei Shao immediately, with a terrified face, told Wang Lin his location. Wang Lin nodded in satisfaction and then said, "If I find out you lied to me, next time no one will be able to save you!"
"Yeah, everything I said is true, not a single lie. Go check it out for yourself."
Upon receiving the notification that Wang Lin had received 5 million yuan, he looked at Xiong Shu, "This is the end of today. I hope you won't make a decision you regret!"
Uncle Xiong nodded and smiled, constantly assuring them that he wouldn't do it.
At this moment, Wang Lin knew Xia Yue's location. He was eager and didn't even bother with Xiong Shu, quickly leaving.
When Wang Lin was far away, Xiong Shu immediately flew into a rage, glaring angrily at Wei Shao, "You've done a good job! I will report truthfully to the head of the family when I get home. Take care of yourself!"
He then arranged for people to carry the one still lying on the ground back, and he left ahead of them, hurrying to report to the head of the household.
Wang Lin stepped out of the hutong and immediately hailed a taxi. He told the driver an address and then began to think about what to say when he met Xiaoyue.
Emerald City Estate, Wang Lin stood under a building at this moment, excitedly looking up. Xiaoyue was there.
He quickly ran into the elevator, pressed the floor button, and when he reached Xiaoyue's door, he took out his phone, adjusted his hair in front of the screen, and started knocking.
Time slowly passed, but the room remained silent. He closed his eyes and pressed his ear against the door, straining to hear any sounds from inside.
The room was deathly silent, not a single sound. His heart sank to the bottom of his stomach, "Has he not returned, or is he going to keep hiding from me"
He finally found Xiaoyue's house and simply sat down at the door, waiting for her to come back.
Time jumped back to the morning. Xiao Yue had just arrived at the company when she was called into the office by her supervisor.
Did you see the news
"Huh What news"
The supervisor opened his phone and handed it to Xiaoyue. As soon as she took the phone, she began to read it carefully. Her expression changed from initial puzzlement to surprise, then hesitation, and finally panic.
"Manager, this..."
She didn't know how to explain it to her manager, so she could only nervously look at him, waiting for his next words.
"Things have escalated, presenting both risks and opportunities for the company. I'd like to hear your thoughts on this."
Xiaoyue hung her head, not knowing what to say. Wang Lin had made such a big fuss to find her, and she was very happy in her heart, but she couldn't see him. She was afraid that if she saw him, she would be unable to resist agreeing to go back with Wang Lin.
"Xiaoyue"
"Oh, I can't see him."
"I respect your opinion, but he'll find you eventually. After all, things have blown up pretty big, and people love to see this kind of drama. So the word will keep spreading, and there's no escaping it."
Xiaoyue then lowered her head again in silence. She had already thought of these things just now, but she was not yet ready to meet Wang Lin.
The supervisor looked at Xiaoyue's appearance and sighed, "This is your own business, think it over carefully. Sometimes, running away doesn't solve the problem. Go busy yourself!"
Xiao Yue let out an "oh" and nonchalantly walked out of the office, back to her workstation. When her colleagues saw Xiao Yue, they all rushed over to ask her if she had seen the news.
Xiaoyue simply perfunctorily said a few words and sat alone at her desk, lost in thought.
My colleagues next to me kept whispering and discussing heatedly.
"Oh, if someone treated me like that, I would be over the moon!"
“Yeah, I’m so envious of Xiaoyue. She has such a loving boyfriend.”
"Xiaoyue initially seemed to have left on her own, who knows, maybe she just didn't like him at all!"
"It's possible, but that person really loves Xiaoyue. If my partner were half as good as him, I would be satisfied."
"Humph! I think Xiaoyue is just dangling that fool, wanting him to spend more money on her!"
"How can you say that I don't even know what Xiaoyue is like! She would never do something like that!"
That's not necessarily so, you can't judge a book by its cover!
Some people envied her, some were jealous of her. All sorts of voices kept entering Xiaoyue's ears, making her mood gradually become irritable.
After a morning of contemplation, she still decided to continue hiding. She felt she had no face to see Wang Lin again, and perhaps not seeing each other would be the best choice for both of them.
When she went to work in the afternoon, she found a good colleague and proposed the idea of temporarily living together.
Though the colleague wanted Xiao Yue and Wang Lin to meet, seeing Xiao Yue's resolute expression, he took his words back before he could speak them. He agreed to her request to live together.
After work in the afternoon, the two of them returned to the colleague's home together.
After dinner, the two of them lay on the sofa resting. The colleague kept persuading Xiaoyue, telling her that what she did was wrong and that she should speak up about her thoughts. Avoiding the issue would only harm herself and others.
Unfortunately, Xiaoyue couldn't hear her words at all. She just kept saying "mm" .
After persuading her for a long time, both cups of water were finished, but it still couldn't change Xiaoyue's mind. She was too lazy to say anything more.
Everyone has their own thoughts, maybe there's something Yue doesn't want to say that is bothering her!s alright, Gaoyue, we came to save you."Xiaoyue was still trembling, her lips repeatedly muttering, "Don't come over, don't come over..."Her tears had dried up, her voice was hoarse, and her dishevele...
