Lai Wei’s heart was pounding, feeling like it was about to leap out of her chest.
Hai En lied without a change in expression; she knew Hai En had reached so agreent with the hospital where Jian Dan was being treated, all just a matter of spending money.
Now that Bo Qin is going there to investigate, he probably won’t find anything, and precisely because he won’t find anything, Hai En feels confident in deceiving Bo Qin?
If Bo Qin decides to settle scores later, will Hai En end up in a terrible situation?
Hai En isn’t worried about that; once the mystery is solved, Jian Dan will definitely return. At that mont, Jian Dan will plead on his behalf, and he believes that no matter what, Bo Qin won’t lay a finger on Jian Dan.
That’s why he is fearless.
Bo Qin stared intently at Hai En’s face, seeing him calm and composed, before hanging up the video call, saying only one thing, "I hope not a single word you said is false."
"Otherwise, you know my thods."
Once the call ended, Hai En felt a wave of relief, half-laying on the sofa, wrapping an arm around Lai Wei’s waist, "Weiwei, I feel like I’m going to die soon."
Dealing with soone like Bo Qin is trendously exhausting; despite being so cautious, he forgets his own whereabouts. He had always been trying to cover up for Jian Dan; surely Jian Dan’s location has been discovered by now.
He snapped back to reality and urged Lai Wei, "Go call Jian Dan, tell her that Bo is investigating her, advise her not to go out unnecessarily or contact the outside world, or she will definitely be found. We cannot contact her frequently for a long ti; she should be extra careful on her own.
The more we contact her, the faster we’ll expose her location."
Lai Wei nodded solemnly.
Hai En personally called the hospital in Athens to confirm repeatedly that they would keep it confidential.
When Jian Dan received Lai Wei’s call, she was sowhat shocked; actually, she was startled about Bo Qin looking for her.
Lai Wei speculated, "Maybe the ticket to Australia you bought is useless, your Uncle Qin knows you’re still in the country, Little Jian Dan, please be careful, we can’t contact you frequently lest we implicate you."
"I’m sorry," Jian Dan said guiltily, "Because of , you all got dragged into this; don’t worry, Weiwei, if Uncle Qin makes a move against you, I won’t hide anymore, I will co forward, at that point, it can only an that I am not destined to have this child, everything else we’ll deal with later."
Although she desperately wanted to give birth to this child, compared to her friends, she was more concerned about their safety.
Lai Wei interrupted her, "Little Jian Dan, since it started, there’s no point in escaping; we’re doing it voluntarily, if sothing truly unbearable happens, we’ll handle it then, alright?"
Jian Dan acknowledged with a sound, remaining silent.
...
For half a month straight, Bo Qin’s mood was utterly terrible; he didn’t know if he was angrier or more worried. Each ti he closed his eyes, Jian Dan’s smiling face filled his mind.
She would smile and call him Uncle Qin, and share things she found interesting.
That wasn’t all; she tornted him in dreams, sotis with intense passion, other tis full of resentnt.
She said it was karma, a consequence for neglecting her for two years.
For several nights in a row, he woke up from such accusations, gasping heavily, his heartache intensified.
In these monts, however hard it beca to deny, he liked Jian Dan; even before he realized any signs, he had started liking her.
In truth, when he went to Jian Dan’s father’s grave alone last ti, he knew full well it was repentance and apology.
Because he had developed feelings for his friend’s daughter, whom he found absolutely different from others.
But now, he could no longer evade it; his heart told him, there was no escape. His feelings for Jian Dan were distinct right from the start.
He exhaled a long breath, his expression inscrutable.
Upon arriving at the office the next day, Zhou Yao, who had just returned from a honeymoon, paused at Bo Qin’s haggard appearance and asked hesitantly, "Bo, do you need to take action against Zhao Linlin and the others?"
Bo Qin’s pupils contracted before he spoke up to stop him, "No need."
Zhou Yao, "But we know they’re involved in this matter."
Bo Qin, "I know, what of it? They’re Jian Dan’s friends; it’s easy to deal with them, but if Jian Dan gets angry, she’s hard to placate, so there’s no need."
Zhou Yao: "..."
It’s the first ti hearing such sentintality, yet there’s no way to joke about it, because Bo Qin’s sadness seeped through his very being. Zhou Yao worried that one day it might beco too much for him.
