Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 178 - 172: Warning

The air in the car was tense. Wang Hai felt somewhat uncomfortable, shifting his neck, not daring to take a deep breath, occasionally glancing at the movements of the two people in the backseat through the rearview mirror.

"Officer Gao, do you know what you’re saying?" Leng Yichen’s eyes were calm, bleary in the dim car light, making him seem full of hostility.

Gao Sheng met Leng Yichen’s gaze with certainty in his voice, "I know. Yin Hao is overly cautious. My informants can’t even get close to him. The only one who has the opportunity to get near Yin Hao is Bai Yiran." Gao Sheng spread out the photos for Leng Yichen to see, "Yin Tianshen likes her, and that’s the way Bai Yiran can get close to Yin Hao!"

Hearing Gao Sheng’s words, Wang Hai couldn’t help but gasp. Back when they were comrades, Gao Sheng was the kind of person who spoke his mind regardless of the setting or the people around him.

Leng Yichen’s anger had reached its peak, "Stop the car!"

Wang Hai obediently pulled over to the side of the road.

Gao Sheng looked at Leng Yichen, waiting for his response.

"Get out of the car!"

Gao Sheng raised his eyebrows, not expecting a dismissal instead of an answer.

"Leng Yichen, now is not the time to act on emotions. I believe if Bai Yiran knew the truth, she would be willing to do this!"

Gao Sheng’s words startled Leng Yichen. He had exhausted himself getting divorced from Bai Yiran just to keep her away from this turmoil. And now, Gao Sheng actually wanted to use Bai Yiran to capture Yin Hao. Wouldn’t everything he did have been in vain?

"Officer Gao! Has your police force become so incompetent that you need to use a woman to strike criminals?"

"If necessary, I don’t mind..."

"Gao Sheng!" This was the first time Leng Yichen called Gao Sheng by his full name, "I warn you, don’t get any ideas about Bai Yiran, or else I can’t guarantee I won’t do something to ruin you!"

Gao Sheng looked at Leng Yichen, knowing his words had completely enraged the man. He smiled lightly, "Alright, I understand."

After saying this, Gao Sheng got out of the car. The car then drove away, stirring up a cloud of dust. Gao Sheng watched the car fade into the distance, holding his own thoughts.

This man, Leng Yichen, is too indecisive. Since he doesn’t want to do this, I’ll do it! Even if I have to endure destructive consequences in the end, I won’t flinch.

At this moment, Bai Yiran lay on the bed, gently touching her belly with her small hand, her heart feeling exceptionally tender. Perhaps this is what it means to be a mother, turning her originally bleak days into ones with hope.

Lou Jing and her young, handsome boyfriend had gone out for a date. It’s not hard to guess what they were up to. He had once asked Lou Jing if they could rent a place together. As adults, both had needs, but Lou Jing was hesitant about it before. Now, after learning about Bai Yiran’s pregnancy, she flatly refused him, as Bai Yiran needed someone to take care of her and Lou Jing didn’t want to trouble her grandma and family. Naturally, Lou Jing took up the responsibility of caring for the pregnant Bai Yiran.

This had completely offended her boyfriend, who always looked at Bai Yiran with reproach every time he saw her, making her feel quite embarrassed, and forcing them to go out every time they wanted to be intimate.

A series of loud knocks at the door suddenly echoed, making Bai Yiran glance at the clock—it was just shy of ten at night. Normally, Lou Jing wouldn’t come back this early.

The cafe had long since closed its doors, the large rolling shutter locked. If it were Lou Jing, she would have used the back door to enter. So, who could be knocking at this hour?

Alert, Bai Yiran got out of bed, picked up a bottle of maple syrup, and walked to the cafe entrance, "Who’s there?"

There was a sudden silence outside, so quiet that Bai Yiran almost thought she had imagined the knocking.

"It’s me." After a pause, Leng Yichen’s voice came from outside.

Bai Yiran was startled, nearly dropping the bottle of syrup from her hand.

"Open the door, let’s talk," Leng Yichen’s voice was as sharp as the cold wind.

Bai Yiran shivered but spoke with firm determination, "There’s nothing for us to talk about. Go back. It’s late, and I want to sleep."

She put down the syrup and turned to return to her room. She really didn’t want to see Leng Yichen now, nor was there a need to. She didn’t understand what Leng Yichen was thinking. Since they divorced, why couldn’t they stay out of each other’s lives? Why did he show up every now and then to disturb her?

"Bai Yiran, when I’m speaking nicely, you better open the door, or bear the consequences!"

Bai Yiran stopped, the cold warning in Leng Yichen’s voice worked on her. From what he said, it seemed if she didn’t open the door, he might force his way in.

The rolling shutter slowly rose. In the cold wind stood Leng Yichen, wearing little, not even a coat. His hands and face were red from the cold wind, but his body didn’t tremble a bit.

Bai Yiran stood at the doorway, looking impatient. Leng Yichen strode in with the gust of cold wind, making her involuntarily take two steps back to maintain a safe distance.

After all, the last time wasn’t pleasant, and she had to spend a month in the hospital because of it.

Bai Yiran’s retreat made Leng Yichen’s expression turn colder, "Bai Yiran, I told you, anyone else is fine, but not Yin Tianshen!"

Bai Yiran was somewhat dazed. What was he talking about coming here to knock on her door without a word of introduction? "I don’t understand what you’re saying! If that’s all, you can leave now."

Leng Yichen smirked, pulling Bai Yiran into his arms, holding her tightly, "Why do you never listen to me!" he looked down at her, "I also said that if I ever found someone kissing you again, I would sew your mouth shut and lock you away forever!"

Bai Yiran froze. Leng Yichen did say that, threatening her after he got her out of Golden City.

"Leng Yichen, we’re divorced! You have no right to interfere with me! I didn’t hold you accountable for the last incident, but if you violate me again, I’ll sue you!"

Leng Yichen’s breath caught, and Bai Yiran could see unprecedented anger on his face.

"Let’s see if you have what it takes to sue me then!"

After he finished speaking, Leng Yichen, full of hostility, grabbed Bai Yiran’s chin, forcing her to look up at him.
