Lin Banxia let out a light laugh, surprised that even though Huo Yanting was far away overseas, he had managed to call Qi Han back in ti to rescue her. This enormous favor, she would rember for a lifeti.
"Miss Lin, get so rest. This matter will be explained to you by the young master when he returns; I won’t say anything else for now," Qi Han said, worried he might slip up and make Lin Banxia even more anxious.
"Alright!" Lin Banxia was truly exhausted.
"By the way, I had soone buy so food for you and left it here!" Qi Han knew she must have been starving as well. Although the doctor was giving her nutrient injections, having nothing in her stomach was still very uncomfortable.
"Thank you for your trouble!" Lin Banxia said gratefully.
Huo Qinglin stumbled drunkenly through the door from outside. Seeing Huo Tianfeng sitting on the sofa, he didn’t bother to greet him but headed straight toward the staircase.
"Stop!" Huo Tianfeng reprimanded him sharply.
Huo Qinglin paused for a mont, then sneered disdainfully and continued heading upstairs.
Luo i had just co downstairs and, upon seeing her son in such a drunken state, imdiately rushed over to support him, "Son, what happened? Why did you get so drunk? Who upset you this ti?"
"Mom, I’m tired, I need to rest!" Huo Qinglin pushed his mother’s hand away and marched upstairs even faster.
Huo Tianfeng watched his son’s indifference towards him and couldn’t hide his inner sadness.
Once Huo Qinglin lay down on his bed, Huo Tianfeng pushed the door open and walked in.
"Lin Banxia was rescued by Huo Yanting’s people. Now, can you finally relax?" Huo Tianfeng said with a furrowed brow.
Huo Qinglin’s expression froze briefly, "Dad, are you here to scold again?"
"I’m tired of scolding you. I just want to ask—Huo Yanting has gained the upper hand now. Do you really think he would let Lin Banxia go to you?" Huo Tianfeng sneered coldly, thinking his son needed to wake up from his daydream.
Huo Qinglin seed utterly crushed once more. He kept his head lowered and said nothing.
Huo Tianfeng mocked, "Anything Huo Yanting sets his sights on, he’s determined to have. If you can sohow snatch Lin Banxia away from him, I might even hold you in higher regard for once."
Huo Qinglin looked up at him, "Love isn’t sothing you can just take because you want it. But I won’t give up."
"When it cos to won, aren’t you supposed to have all sorts of tricks? Then I’ll support you in going after Lin Banxia. You’ve fallen short in business, but I hope you can excel in love. If you need my help, don’t hesitate to ask." At this mont, Huo Tianfeng finally showed a semblance of fatherly concern.
Huo Qinglin stared at him incredulously, furrowing his brows.
Without saying anything further, Huo Tianfeng turned and left.
Ti quickly passed, and in a day, Lin Banxia had regained her strength at the hospital.
She decided to get discharged!
In truth, there was one thing that had been bothering her all along. But when she asked Qi Han, he refused to answer.
The people who had kidnapped her this ti didn’t seem to have her as their real target—it seed like their true objective was Huo Yanting.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have sent her tied-up photos directly to Huo Yanting.
Who could it be?
Was it Huo Qinglin and his father?
At the mont, the only people competing with Huo Yanting for power and resources were them.
Thinking of this, Lin Banxia couldn’t help but gnash her teeth in anger. If it truly was the father and son duo’s doing, she would definitely hold them accountable!
Lin Banxia’s handbag was also retrieved by Zuo Han. When Lin Banxia opened her phone, she found it had run out of battery.
Upon returning ho, the first thing she did was charge her phone. Unexpectedly, it rang incessantly with countless missed call notifications.
As Lin Banxia looked through them, she realized they were all from one person—Mu Jiyang!
Why would he call her? Could it be about compensating her for the repair costs?
Lin Banxia hurriedly called him back, only to hear Mu Jiyang’s irritated voice yelling on the other end, "Lin Banxia, what’s wrong with your phone? Why haven’t you answered any of my calls? Are you giving up on this money or what?"
