Chapter 193: Leaving the City; Leaving Him VII
He saw a stewardess nearby and called her. “Excuse me, we need a blanket here.”
“Certainly, sir.”
The stewardess soon came back with a blanket. Huo Chen covered her with it. “Let’s get your contact lenses out first.”
She took them out and felt a lot more comfortable.
Huo Chen kept his hand on hers. It felt warm and made her feel safe.
Slowly, she closed her eyes.
Huo Chen saw her chest rising and falling almost imperceptibly. He slowly and quietly took out a pair of furry bunny ear muffs and put them on her.
That should make things quieter for her.
Lu Zhaoyang unknowingly leaned her head against his and fell asleep.
…
Back at the airport, the auto doors slid open rapidly.
The bustling crowd of tourists in the terminal stopped walking all of a sudden and gasped as they saw a man with a cold expression stepped inside the airport.
His bewitching face radiated a suppressed form of rage. His eyes glistened coldly like frost in the dead of winter.
He looked like the personification of the Devil himself, emanating an aura of vileness.
It was only one man, but it felt like an entire army had entered the place with him. The crowd instinctively stepped aside for him to pass.
Huo Yunting’s eyes narrowed as he looked around for any signs of Lu Zhaoyang.
Huo Li had raced his way to Ranshan airport as well. He immediately noticed the man and quickly approached him.
“It’s all my fault, Brother Ting!”
The Second Master was simply too skillful that his own investigative skills failed him.
Huo Li was ready for the ruthless scolding that was sure to follow, but to his surprise, Huo Yunting merely said coolly, “Well, what are you standing there for?”
“I’ll get to it immediately, you’ll hear something from me soon enough!”
Huo Li promptly left to continue his investigation.
Huo Yunting remained standing, studying the flight schedule displayed on the screens in the airport. His hands gripped tightly as he tried to contain the rage within him from erupting!
After god knew how long, he finally smothered much of the anger inside him.
Ten minutes later, Huo Li was back and saw Huo Yunting still standing there, staring into the distance.
Ahh, I’m useless! How could I have let Lu Zhaoyang escape with Huo Chen? !
“There were only three flights in this period. Based on the timing, they mostly likely went for Paris or Melbourne. Surveillance has nothing on them, so they were most likely in disguise.”
He did not have enough time to go through all the surveillance tapes before reporting back to Huo Yunting.
“Brother Ting, I am willing to accept whatever punishment you have in mind! Please show some response!”
Spacing out in the airport was not going to help the situation!
Since Huo Yunting did not reply to him still, Huo Li tried to offer something else. “How about this, Brother Ting, let’s bring this to old Mrs Huo. Once grandma speaks up, the Second Master will definitely obey her. They will both return without question!”
“No.” Huo Yunting answered almost in reflex.
Then, he finally turned and walked out of the airport in his typical large strides.
If they told grandma about this, the incident with Huo Chen and Lu Zhaoyang will be exposed.
Grandma… What would she think of Lu Zhaoyang then?
Huo Li followed the man in bafflement. Were they really leaving now? What about finding those two?
