"Xiao Yu, it’s the weekend, and Uncle’s company is having a team building event at Xijing Bay today. I heard there’s a huge sea of flowers there! Would you like to join ?"
ng Lang smiled sweetly at Xiao Yu.
Ten years to grow trees, a hundred to cultivate people, the "Xiao Yu Plan" had officially begun.
"Really? But... is it appropriate for to go?"
Although hesitant, ng Lang clearly saw a hint of anticipation in her eyes.
"Of course, it’s appropriate. Many colleagues are bringing their kids. Mixing work and leisure helps in learning, I’ll just talk to your sister, no worries,"
"Then... then I’ll go pack so stuff!" Xiao Yu ran back to her room, sowhat excited.
ng Lang shook his head with a smile, still a child no matter how mature she seems.
However, taking Xiao Yu away without a word isn’t respectful to her legal guardian.
He picked up his cellphone, thought for a mont, and sent a ssage in the "Xiao Yu’s Guard Team" group.
ng wrote: [Taking Xiao Yu to the company’s team building event at Xijing Bay, will return in the afternoon.]
A mont later, "Ding!" A ssage ca in the group.
Haitang: [This... won’t it trouble you?]
ng wrote: [Not at all troubleso, the more the rrier.]
Haitang: [Alright then, be careful out there.]
ng wrote: [Got it, don’t worry.]
One Pear Blossom: [Hehe! So harmonious, should I... leave the group? (╰_╯)]
Haitang: [...]
ng wrote: [...]
"Ding!" ng Lang received another ssage, but this one was sent to him privately.
One Pear Blossom: [ng, don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to, just you wait! (╬ ̄皿 ̄)]
ng Lang’s face went blank.
This guy still hasn’t cald down from last night?
My hidden agendas?
What hidden agendas could I have, nurturing her for the rise of human civilization, how could that be wrong?
Before I even discuss my thoughts, isn’t your agenda already as clear as day?
He looked at Yan Weiwei’s avatar...
I hadn’t noticed before, but you changed your nickna again!
So, you’re worried I wouldn’t understand, thus you went from hinting to being outright obvious?
I, a Chinese Literature major, feel offended!
...
Lin Haitang sighed in resignation and put down her phone as Gao Yuan ca over and placed a cup of black tea in front of her.
"Thank you, Miss Gao. You specially called over today, is there sothing about the case you need to consult?"
Lin Haitang looked at Gao Yuan, noticing that she seed to have had a bad night.
Her eyes were sowhat swollen and her face was pale, giving her a listless appearance.
"Honestly, I sought out Lawyer Lin today because I wanted to learn more about Mr. ng, the ’Special Intelligence Advisor’ from last ti."
"You an ng Lang?" Lin Haitang was taken aback.
You called on a big weekend just to learn about ng Lang?
Lin Haitang’s expression instantly turned odd.
This guy... can he make won think of him nonstop just by eting them once?
Yan Weiwei too, and now Gao Yuan...
This guy must be toxic!
"Are Lawyer Lin and Mr. ng close?" Gao Yuan stared at Lin Haitang, probing.
"Well..."
How to answer this question?
To say we are close, we actually only t recently, but to say we aren’t close, however, would underestimate the deep bond we share...
"Why does Miss Gao want to inquire about ng Lang? After all, you’ve only t once," Lin Haitang ventured.
Gao Yuan, seeing Lin Haitang’s oblivious expression, realized that ng Lang hadn’t shared last night’s incident with her.
Looks like... she isn’t one of those organization people?
Initially, I was skeptical since Lin Haitang introduced ng Lang. Perhaps Lin Haitang also had connections with that mysterious force.
"It’s nothing, just a bit curious to know what kind of person Mr. ng is."
The desire to know what kind of person ng Lang is?
Lin Haitang’s expression grew even stranger.
Although ng Lang once said he didn’t want to rely on a wealthy woman, what if opportunity really knocked? Would he unwillingly say no but his body say yes?
So, should I speak well of him, or not?
I feel like this could affect ng Lang’s entire life...
After thinking it over, she decided to be truthful, "Actually, I don’t know him that well either, we’ve only known each other for just over a week.
But one thing’s for sure... he is a good person, upright and trustworthy!
Speaking of which, my eting him actually does involve Miss Gao a bit."
"It involves ?" Gao Yuan was taken aback.
Lin Haitang pondered for a mont and felt it was necessary to let her know what sort of person Xu Jingsong was, to make her more cautious.
Just in case ng Lang’s paranoia unfortunately proves right once again...
Thus, she recounted the recent "Yuan Li incident."
"What?" Gao Yuan was shocked.
Xu Jingsong had actually sent soone to harm Lin Haitang, and it almost endangered her sister?
She stood up guiltily, bowing deeply to Lin Haitang.
"Lawyer Lin, I’m sorry, I didn’t expect that my involvent almost dragged you and your sister into trouble."
Lin Haitang shook her head, "It’s not your fault."
"But ultimately, it all started because of ," Gao Yuan sighed.
Beyond the guilt she felt for the Lin sisters, what remained was a sincere gratitude towards ng Lang.
So he had done so much in her case...
Yet he had said nothing about it last night.
If it hadn’t been for him, she would surely have been unwittingly trapped by Xu Jingsong’s sches by now, likely in a dire and unrecoverable situation...
But why would he go out of his way to help her, soone he barely knew?
