At the same time, in the presidential suite of a five-star hotel in Jinling.
Li Zhaohui, the crown prince of the Haixin Group, had just finished his passionate session and emerged from the bathroom, stretching languidly.
On the living room sofa sat a stern-faced middle-aged man, his arms crossed, lost in thought.
"Dad, what are you doing here?"
Seeing the middle-aged man, Li Zhaohui was startled.
After all, he had just engaged in illicit activities and now being caught by his father at the door, he felt an embarrassing sense of being caught in the act.
"I called you so many times, but you wouldn't answer! It's already eleven o'clock, I thought you were still sleeping! I didn't expect, *hmph*, you really know how to entertain yourself."
Seeing his son emerge, Li Haicang, the chairman of Haixin Group, glared fiercely.
It was an emergency.
And his son wouldn't even answer his calls!
Instead, he was indulging in carnal pleasures in broad daylight. Da Feng Novel
Li Haicang didn't object to his son finding women.
The Li family was a prominent one. If he didn't, he would suspect something was wrong with his son.
But he absolutely could not let women delay important matters.
"Dad, don't worry, it won't happen again! What's going on? You're not handling company affairs at this hour, coming out to find me specifically?"
Li Zhaohui took a deep breath, calming himself, and said seriously.
He wasn't stupid.
Although his family was as rich as a gold mountain.
But unlike Lin Shiyou, the foolish son of a landlord.
Haixin Group was a family enterprise, not a nouveau riche.
He had been groomed to be the family heir since childhood.
For Li Haicang to abandon company matters and come find him at this hour, it must mean something big had happened! Da Feng Novel Network
"I'm here for only one reason. For the past couple of days, my right eyelid has been twitching terribly, I have a premonition that something is about to happen. Pack your things quickly and leave Jinling tonight! Do not take a plane or high-speed train!"
"Dad, what exactly happened! Did anything come from Grandpa's side?"
Hearing this, Li Zhaohui was startled and quickly asked.
Not taking a plane or high-speed train?
This was the rhythm of an escape!
Could it be...
"Nothing has come from your grandfather's side," Li Haicang said.
"Then why do we need to flee? Our Li family is wealthy, Haixin Group is a major taxpayer, affecting the employment of tens of thousands of people. Who would dare to make a move against us?" Hearing that nothing had come from his grandfather, Li Zhaohui breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alas, you child..." Li Haicang sighed. "No news is the worst news! Don't forget, the bald man in Guangyuan was killed a couple of days ago, and that matter was quickly suppressed."
"Such a big incident, yet it was suppressed! Considering the bald man's background, this incident makes me feel that something is unusual. Also, do you even know who is in charge in Jinling these days?"
"I heard that a few days ago you clashed with Wang Hailin and Lin Shiyou at the antique auction. Those two are indeed not worth mentioning, they are famously incompetent. But don't forget, the old man of the Wang family, though retired, still has influence. The current Wu Xinmin is his former student, and Wu Xinmin has always been at odds with your grandfather."
"If you truly escalate the conflict with the Wang family, and you are in the right, your grandfather might be able to protect you once. If you are in the wrong, no one can help you! Anyway, the wind in Jinling has been strange lately. You should go out and lay low for a while. Once this period passes, you can come back, consider it a vacation!"
Li Haicang explained and made his decision.
He stood up, ready to leave.
Instantly.
Li Zhaohui's expression changed drastically.
These words...
Why did it sound like a final farewell?
He had had conflicts with Lin Shiyou for so long, and Wang Hailin, who was often with Lin Shiyou, had always been a target of ridicule.
This matter, if not known by everyone in Jinling, was certainly known by many.
And normally, his father would never bother with such minor conflicts between youngsters.
But today...
Everything felt strange!
"Dad, what exactly happened?" Li Zhaohui asked.
Li Haicang was silent for a moment and said.
"Recently, there has been frequent movement of police forces in several cities near Jinling. A friend of mine in Jiangzhen called me last night and said they were assigned a mission to Jinling, and also mentioned that they would catch up after the mission was completed. I have a feeling this is unusual!"
"Didn't Grandpa say this was just a normal police deployment exercise? Dad, aren't you worrying too much? You don't think those people are coming for Xian Shang Ren Jian, do you?" Li Zhaohui said relaxedly.
He knew about the police deployment.
After all, with so many people moving, it was impossible to keep it secret.
However, the news that came out was that it was an exercise.
He didn't doubt the authenticity of the news.
Because it was said by his grandfather himself.
"It would be great if it was as you thought. Anyway, just consider it a trip out to relax, or to lay low. Don't appear in Jinling during this time."
"I've already found a boat for you. We'll depart from Jinling tonight, first to Shanghai, then to Guangzhou. From Guangzhou, we'll take a boat to Siam, and then to India. Once you're there, you can enjoy yourself abroad to your heart's content."
"If Haixin truly falls, Zhaohui, you are my only son. I don't want you to come back."
Having said all this,
Li Haicang did not intend to explain further to his son.
He turned and left the presidential suite.
Li Zhaohui watched his father's retreating back, lost in thought.
He gritted his teeth and decided to follow his father's advice.
He was indeed a rich second generation, but not a stubborn one.
Otherwise, faced with Lin Shiyou's provoking behavior, most people would have lost their temper and gone to curse his ancestors.
As long as the green hills remain, there will be wood to burn.
His father was right.
If it was just a false alarm, he could consider it a trip abroad.
If his father's premonition turned out to be true, he would become the last hope of the Haixin Li family!
However, Ye Yun would never have imagined that Li Haicang, the president of Haixin Group's early warning, would allow Li Zhaohui to escape safely.
Nor would he have imagined the trouble that Li Zhaohui, driven mad by the impending family ruin, would bring him!
...
By the time Ye Yun returned to his rented apartment, it was already past three in the afternoon.
He tidied up the place a bit.
Ye Yun rode a small electric scooter to wait outside Rui Tai Kindergarten.
The kindergarten let out at four o'clock. After picking up Ke Ke, Ye Yun notified Li Mengyao.
Then he took Ke Ke to the market to buy some vegetables and went home to be a househusband.
The sky gradually darkened.
The food on the table had long gone cold, and little Ke Ke was hungry, her eyes looking pitiful.
However, Li Mengyao still hadn't returned.
Just as Ye Yun was about to call her.
*Dong dong dong.*
Someone knocked on the door of the rented apartment. Ye Yun quickly opened it.
Opening the door, Li Mengyao and her sister were carrying large bags, their faces dejected.
Li Mengyao's eyes were swollen, indicating she had been crying.
"Mengyao, what happened?"
Ye Yun asked with concern as he helped take the luggage.
"No, no, nothing..."
Li Mengyao said nothing and walked in with her tired body.
"Mommy."
When she reached Ke Ke, hearing her daughter's soft call, Li Mengyao forced a smile that was even uglier than crying.
Even a fool could tell something had happened!
"Menghan, what happened to your sister today!"
