Part Two: Dongtu Sugar, Chapter 113

mention again." 。Shutinglan carefully helped him into the car, noticing that he had lost even more weight. His muscles were as hard as stone. 。After they got on the bus, Yi Muyang turned his head to...She walked barefoot across the carpet to find him. A faint light shone from under the slightly ajar door of the study, revealing his focused gaze on the computer screen, his expression cold. 。

I wanted to go in and tell him to sleep, but then I thought better of it. People working late at night must be doing something important. 。She knew he had been very busy lately. From the few words he and Lu Kuo occasionally exchanged, she guessed that the progress of the mining company in the southwest was not going well. They had acquired the company to help Listening Whale Finance and to reserve backup resources for Senbing Industrial Group. They didn't say what specific difficulties they encountered, so she didn't ask. She tried not to get involved in business matters. 。During that time, she went back to Beijing once. Because of the county issue, she and Chen Ling had a disagreement. 。Neither of them was right or wrong, they just had different perspectives and ways of doing things. 。Chen Linghui felt that since the county had such a human trafficking profit chain, it absolutely could not be tolerated and must be eradicated at its roots to prevent future occurrences. 。"Right now we can save these few, but if this chain of interests remains intact, countless more will fall victim to it in the future. Who will rescue them then" Lu Yaoyao: "I completely understand what you're saying and I support it. However, realistically speaking, do you think you can single-handedly uproot this entire chain of interests That's idealism, a fantasy." 。It's not that she's pessimistic, but rather that from a young age she was exposed to this and through her own personal experiences knows how firmly entrenched each person in this chain of interests is. Let alone eradicating the entire thing root and stem, even trying to shake one small link would be extremely difficult. 。Many things are not about not doing them, but about taking time and gradually solving them. 。Chen Ling replied: "How would I know if I haven't tried" 。"A-a, this matter, if there were 10 steps, we've reached step 6. Just turning back now, I can't explain to the foundation, I can't explain to those who donated and supported us, and I certainly can't explain to those women who were abducted." 。Chen Ling disagreed with deleting all articles online and would not give up on continuing to report on the whole incident. 。Her persistence is the very foundation upon which she stands in this world. 。In her eyes, Lu Yaoyao saw a light piercing through the darkness, she saw determination, she saw courage. In that instant, she was transported back to that night in the Northwest, hearing the helpless and frightened cry for help from that girl, feeling the trust that treated her like a lifeline. 。>> 。Chen Ning replied, "Yaoyao, these matters have nothing to do with you. I know your identity, and many things are inconvenient for you to get involved in. This time, being able to safely withdraw our volunteers in a timely manner is already very much appreciated." 。We will handle what happens next ourselves. 。Chen Ling understood. It was already very impressive that she could do this. 。But Lu Yao Yao, after hearing this, felt even more ashamed. "As the goodwill ambassador of the foundation, we are one and the same..." 。"If I took this job, it wasn't just for show, just to make a promotional video." 。However, for safety's sake, she hoped not to be too radical, lest she anger the people of the county or Zhao Tingxing. 。She flew back to Senzhou from the capital. After landing at the airport, she wanted to go straight to Zhao Tingxing's company and have a good talk with him, to see if there was a way to compromise. Whatever happened, she didn't want to anger Zhao Tingxing. 。。Miss Lu, I am so disappointed in you. 。His cold voice came through the phone, eerie and chilling. 。"I wanted to return your favor, but it seems that won't be possible. " 。His voice came again. 。Lu Yaoyao's footsteps suddenly stopped. She saw Zhao Tingxing sitting in the car in the distance, his eyes like a fierce hawk watching her. The underground parking garage was already cold and damp, and Lu Yaoyao felt a chill run down her spine. Her driver was in another parking lot, and she felt uneasy. She looked around at the cameras and found that his parking position was right in a blind spot. 。Before she could even speak, he slowly rolled up his car window, his gaze also being cut off by the glass. But she felt a sudden chill in the air around her and a strange loss of consciousness. 。

Drifting and sinking, half-awake and half-asleep, my whole body felt soft and weak. I tried several times to open my eyes, but my eyelids felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, unable to lift them up. 。Actually, my mind gradually woke up. The first thought that came to me was, she couldn't have been kidnapped by Zhao Tingxing, could she

Come on, this is too dramatic!

At this moment, it was eerily quiet, so quiet that I could hear the sound of running water in the distance outside the window, as well as the calls of kingfishers and the rustling of leaves in the wind. In short, I couldn't open my eyes right now, but just by listening to the sounds around me, it felt like a harmonious natural symphony. 。

After who knew how long, she drifted in and out of consciousness, until finally, her eyes fluttered open. 。

What came into view was Zhao Tingxing's face. 。He seemed to be sitting right next to her, staring at her for a long time. So when she opened her eyes, she met his gaze directly. For a moment, their eyes locked, and then he suddenly smiled: "I thought you'd scream or cry." 。To his recollection, girls like this who had never suffered hardship were probably all the same. 。Lu YaoYao was parched: "You have to let me replenish my fluids first, or I won't be able to give you a performance of screaming and tears." 。"Zhao Tingxing burst into laughter again, slightly turning his body to pour a glass of warm water from the table next to him and hand it to her: “You're so calm, it takes away my sense of accomplishment as a kidnapper.” 。Lu Yaoyao took a big gulp of water, her throat feeling parched and even slightly painful. She felt a little better after that and said, “I’ll show you something now” Zhao Tingxing replied, "No need, I hate it when women cry." 。Lu Yaoyao, taking advantage of the time she was drinking water, secretly glanced at herself. Her clothes were still the same ones from the airport, perfectly intact. 。I glanced around again, it seemed to be in a two-story wooden house deep in the mountains. The view outside the window was nice, with mountains and water. 。She was observing the surroundings, Zhao Tingxing was observing her. 。She was so calm, that his emotions felt strangely muted, with no room to move. 。"

“Don't you fear”

“Will you let me go just because I’m afraid”

“Of course not”

>>> 。So, I guess it's the most useless emotion. 。Actually, she's just putting on a tough act. There's no way she's not scared. This man is a classic example of someone with fluctuating moods. His sinister look at the airport and his current beaming smile are like two different people. 。She was afraid, but she also knew that he had kidnapped her because she was useful to him. So, to avoid angering him, she thought the safest course of action was to remain calm. 。dfather never remarried. Her aunt, who is also Lu Kuo's mother, passed away a few years ago due to illness. After her parents divorced, her mother moved overseas. In this family, she is the only daug...
