Chapter 471: Chapter 468
The dark, towering figure was gradually swallowed by the black snowy night, vanishing into the clouds and mist, to be seen no more.
It was a battle that ultimately belonged to him, and how he longed to have a grand wedding with her, but he had to wait until everything was over before he could peacefully co to marry her.
When Lu Xiao reached the entrance of the alley, he saw several figures standing in the distance.
After eting up, they all left with him.
These were all forr soldiers who had retired from the army, each skilled in combat.
…
Lu Xiao didn’t imdiately send a ssage to Wen Xian.
Even though he missed her terribly, he was more afraid that she would ask where he was and whether he had returned.
How should he reply then…?
To say that he had left for Qinghai…?
He couldn’t bring himself to say it.
Moreover, Qinghai was still hiding dangers, though he had set traps, he still worried she might follow him.
He had secretly arranged for two bodyguards to be by her side to protect her safety, and they wouldn’t alarm her unless absolutely necessary.
The scenes in the prison before were just a play, to fit into his plan.
The person who stabbed him was indeed a bully from the prison gangs, but it was not a real stabbing; the dagger was fake. When it hit his abdon, the blade automatically retracted into the handle, and the blood was fake as well.
All of this was to deceive the eyes of Li Tingze and his people.
And the bully who cooperated secretly with his act was promised so reduction in his sentence as a reward.
Why wouldn’t he be willing?
…
In the early hours, five o’clock.
Location: Shanghai.
Unlike the heavy snowfall and biting cold winter in Beijing, the end of the year in Shanghai was characteristically damp, chilly, and rainy.
The sky was a dull grey, and a light rain fell steadily.
There was no central heating here, only air conditioners. Wen Xian’s house was large, and not every room had an air conditioner. At night, she still wore a warm thermal pajama set in bed, wearing even more than she would in Beijing.
Especially since she was alone in such a large house, it seed all the more desolate.
Since coming back, she had slept fitfully and had a hard ti resting, often plagued by dreams. Every ti she woke up groggily, she couldn’t help but pick up her phone and glance at it.
To see if there was a ssage replying to her.
And now, her phone suddenly buzzed, startling her, her eyelashes trembled, and her hand instinctively reached for her phone again.
Although she had heard the sound of her phone ringing several tis in her dreams, every ti she looked, it turned out to be in vain.
After finding her phone, she picked it up and opened her tired, bleary eyes to check.
But then, as she looked, she actually saw a ssage from Lu Xiao.
She quickly rubbed her eyes to fully wake herself up.
Lu Xiao had replied, which ant he was safe and sound!
Wen Xian hurriedly opened WeChat, intending to give him a video call in a little bit, but as soon as she saw the ssage he had sent, she froze.
Lu Xiao: [I’ve gone to Qinghai to handle so things, I’ll co to Shanghai to find you after. ]
As Wen Xian was stunned looking at the ssage, Lu Xiao sent another:
[Be good, I’m on the plane, I’ve turned off my phone. ]
Wen Xian: “…”
Looking at the ssage, she realized and hurriedly tried to call him, but the familiar female voice on the other end ca through:
“I’m sorry, the user you are trying to call has turned off their phone…”
