Chapter 190: Leaving the City; Leaving Him IV
However, Huo Li was also a capable man himself. They were always within his sight despite their efforts.
After making a few more detours, Lu Zhaoyang followed Huo Chen to another one of the airport’s entrances and hired a car.
Lu Zhaoyang turned to look back from the backseat and saw Huo Li jumped into one of the company’s car before vanishing into the crowd.
“Where are we going?” She turned to Huo Chen and asked, a little short of breath.
“Ranshan Airport.”
Their priority was to slip away from Huo Li. Out of the three airports in the city, Ranshan Airport was the closest.
Huo Li must have realized now that they were being tailed.
“Yang Yang, there’s a bag beside you. Put those clothes on.”
Lu Zhaoyang turned to see a blue plastic bag by her feet. She opened it and found a wig, clothing, and even a skin-colored mask!
The mask was thin and it felt like real human skin. There was also a passport and identification papers inside of an entirely different person.
Huo Chen had been anticipating their predicament today.
She immediately set to work.
…
At the same time, on the other side of the city in the municipal government event hall, men and women in formal attire gathered. They were all the elite members of society.
At the main table, a few older men in suits were listening intently to the speaker in front.
Huo Yunting sat cross-legged at the middle of the first row, surrounded by older and more solemn-looking politicians and businessmen on both sides.
Suddenly, his phone vibrated. When he saw it was Huo Li, he immediately took the call.
“Bad news, Brother Ting! Lu Zhaoyang is escaping with the Second Master. I followed them to the airport and they are leaving now, but I’m still in pursuit! Don’t you worry, I will get them for sure!”
Huo Yunting’s expression changed when Huo Li ended the call. His eyes were burning with rage.
Without a word, he stood up and left. The people beside him and the speaker on stage watched him in surprise.
What was going on?
Why was he leaving so soon?
How rude!
Nevertheless, Huo Yunting’s reputation and his swift departure made it impossible for anyone to even raise an objection.
When Huo Yunting stepped out of the event hall, the ladies who were simply tagging along with the participants inside instantly approached him enthusiastically, greeting him softly and practically jumping into his arms.
“Out of my way!”
These upper society young ladies had never seen Huo Yunting so angry.
He had always treated everyone gayly and happy to strike up a conversation, so what was wrong with him today?
Intimidated by Huo Yunting’s outburst, the ladies quickly stepped aside for him to pass.
Ever since the incident of Lu Zhaoyang and Huo Chen embracing each other on the rooftop, he had been worried that the two of them would get together. That was why he asked Huo Li to keep an eye on them.
Since he noticed something amiss with Lu Zhaoyang recently but could not quite put a finger to it, he arranged for Huo Li to tail her.
He anticipated the possibility of another tête-à-tête between them, but now the woman was actually running away with Huo Chen!
Did she forget that she was already married?!
Did she think that she can leave everything for Huo Chen? How could she cheat on him and humiliate him like this?!
Very well!
Lu Zhaoyang was oblivious to Huo Yunting’s rage at the moment. She was now sitting in a car, her appearance completely transformed.
