Originally, he had soone monitor Liao Tingting, thinking that if there was any danger from Feng Yi’s side, he could use Liao Tingting as a hostage.
Now that she has managed to escape so ticulously, there must be danger over at Feng Yi’s side.
Lu Jinghan took out his phone and dialed Feng Yi’s number, but it indicated that the phone was off, which made him even more worried.
Han Xi finished changing clothes in the bedroom and ca downstairs, seeing Lu Jinghan standing by the floor-to-ceiling window smoking. She walked over and hugged him from behind: "What’s wrong? Who just called you?"
Han Xi felt that Lu Jinghan seed a bit off.
Lu Jinghan extinguished the cigarette butt in his hand, holding Han Xi’s hands that were wrapped around his waist: "Xiao Xi, there’s so sudden issue at the company in the United States, I have to go over imdiately to handle it."
Han Xi released her hands and walked in front of Lu Jinghan: "So suddenly? How many days will you be gone?"
"Hard to say. I’ll co back as soon as the matter is handled. Be good and wait for at ho."
Lu Jinghan cupped Han Xi’s face and leaned down to kiss her lips.
Sohow, Han Xi felt uneasy inside, but couldn’t pinpoint what exactly it was.
"I’ll go upstairs and help you pack your luggage."
"Alright, just pack a few changes of clothes and daily necessities. I’ll buy whatever else I need over there."
Han Xi nodded and then went upstairs.
Watching Han Xi enter the bedroom, Lu Jinghan took out his phone and called Fu Bin, briefly telling him about the situation.
Fu Bin initially said he would go with him abroad, but Lu Jinghan insisted he stay ho to protect the Lu Family and Han Xi.
After Han Xi finished packing, she brought the suitcase downstairs and looked at Lu Jinghan reluctantly: "Be careful on the road, and call once you arrive in the United States."
"I know, take good care of yourself at ho. I’ll be back right after I finish handling things there."
Lu Jinghan took the suitcase from Han Xi, hugged her, and kissed her for a good ten minutes before leaving.
After seeing Lu Jinghan off, Han Xi went to the kitchen to help Sister Zhang. Just as she tied her apron, the doorbell rang.
Sister Zhang wiped her hands and went to open the door.
"Miss Li, it’s so late, why have you co?"
Li Manman hurriedly changed her shoes in the entrance: "Is Xiao Xi at ho?"
"She is at ho."
Upon hearing voices, Han Xi ca out from the kitchen: "Manman, why have you co?"
"Xiao Xi, I’ve been calling Feng Yi’s phone all afternoon and no one answered. Now it’s even turned off. I’m feeling uneasy; do you think sothing has happened to him?"
Li Manman, looking quite unwell, sat down on the sofa: "Is Lu Jinghan ho? Maybe he knows what Feng Yi is doing?"
"He just went on a business trip too, said there’s so issue at the company in the United States and he has to handle it."
Han Xi’s phone suddenly rang on the table, indicating a WeChat video call from Feng Yi.
"It’s Feng Yi."
Han Xi clicked the answer button, and seeing the picture on the screen, she was instantly unsettled.
"Feng Yi, what’s happened to you? Are you dealing with kidnappers?"
Feng Yi pretended to be fine while looking at Li Manman: "Don’t worry, I’m okay."
Li Manman beca so anxious that she started crying. Feng Yi was tied to an iron rack, covered in blood, along with several other people who were also tied up.
Liao Tingxiao’s gentle face suddenly appeared on the phone screen, smiling at Han Xi: "Xiao Xi, shall we make a deal now?"
