The man appeared carefree, yet he was the most sentimental of all. Both Yan Ge and I were poor, but he was the one who contributed money and effort to do good deeds without seeking recognition. Just thinking of Si Ningyuan made Li Hao smile.
Indeed, his brother was absolutely loyal. Lin Xiao thought of the ten billion and then of Wang Wenya, the beauty who had been delivered right into his arms.
Li Hao understood Lin Xiao's implication. "Lin Xiao, that's excessive. I’ve explained that situation to you before."
Li Hao recalled the time when Wang Wenya had fallen into his embrace, only to be discovered by Lin Xiao. Afterward, in a moment of impulse, he even tried to explain it to his subordinates.
At that time, Lin Xiao probably felt differently about him.
As the holiday came to an end, Lin Xiao suggested that Sister Wang stay in Beijing with Tian Tian while he would accompany her back alone.
"Alright."
"You agree?" Li Hao was somewhat surprised by Lin Xiao's willingness.
Actually, Wang Lei had mentioned the dark forces surrounding Yu Rao to me. I kept it from you because I wanted you to take Tian Tian away; I was worried about your safety. Lin Xiao explained, "Now that I've heard your story about the Geng Family Brothers, I know you must be thinking of going to help."
Wang Lei was still young and not as familiar with the situation regarding Yu Rao as you are; he also lacked your experience in fighting. If you’re around, I believe we can always succeed.
Lin Xiao thought that Wang Lei probably wanted to see Li Hao for this reason as well.
Soothing music flowed through the car.
At this moment, Lin Xiao felt a newfound determination within her. The time when Nan Jia had taken her shopping for thousands of clothes had suddenly made her feel a lack of motivation to strive.
Being poor allows one to maintain integrity; being rich enables one to benefit the world.
Now, she no longer had to worry about daily meals, and her goals became clearer as she worked hard toward them.
With ideals in her heart and strength beneath her feet.
As the Spring Festival holiday drew to a close, it was only when it came time to part with Tian Tian that Lin Xiao realized she could hardly bear to separate from her.
"Stay here and accompany Tian Tian." In the end, Lin Xiao softened her heart.
At that moment, Li Hao spent more time with the child than she did; she feared that if Tian Tian left them, she would cry.
"Lin Xiao, we agreed." Li Hao said seriously. "If you can't bear it, we can take Tian Tian with us. I will protect both of you."
Lin Xiao dared not take the risk; after what happened last time with Li Hao, she couldn't bear to think about what might happen if Tian Tian were hurt—she would go mad.
Things were much simpler than before, so there was no need to be afraid. Last time, Li Hao was the main force on the battlefield, treading carefully. Now, he had stepped back to the background, significantly reducing the risk factor.
However, it was precisely because of the bloody lesson from last time that Li Hao became even more cautious; he did not want Lin Tian to face any risk at all. Ultimately, reason triumphed over emotion.
On their way back to Beijing, both of them felt downcast. When they arrived at Yu Rao on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, they did not return home to Gengxu Town but checked into a hotel instead.
On the seventh day, a county-wide meeting was held, and all officials at the deputy section level and above were required to attend. This was a tradition that Li Hao had established years ago.
With nothing else to do that evening, Lin Xiao and Li Hao made plans to meet Wang Lei. This was only the second time Li Hao had met Wang Lei. After a brief exchange of pleasantries, their conversation quickly shifted to the main topic.
