Exclusive Love: Pampered by the Scheming Tycoon-Chapter 428 - 429 Huo Yanting Made a Mistake
Although Qi Han still didn’t know what transpired between Huo Qinglin and Lin Banxia, since the young master was so certain, perhaps this was the solution.
"You head back first. I’ll sign the contract tomorrow and return immediately!" Yan Ting said in a deep voice.
"Young Master, focus on your work. You know what this collaboration means. As for Miss Lin, I’ll do everything in my power to rescue her," Qi Han replied, still somewhat uneasy. Moments ago, seeing the young master’s pained and furious expression, he feared that Yan Ting might prioritize Lin Banxia above the bigger picture.
"Qi Han, you’ve always been the person I trust the most. You won’t let me down, will you?" Yan Ting fixed his gaze on Qi Han’s eyes and asked, his voice steady and strong.
Qi Han nodded with unwavering loyalty. "Of course, Young Master. You can completely trust me. My life—it’s yours. You saved me!"
Yan Ting nodded slightly. "Good. Help me get her out of there. Ensure her safety. Once I sign tomorrow, I’ll head back immediately." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
"Young Master, you’re bound to succeed. We’re all waiting for your triumph," Qi Han said sincerely. With that, he turned and walked away quickly.
Yan Ting gazed out at the sky through the window. Yes, he had to succeed. Only then would the skies above the Huo Family become brighter, better!
Lin Banxia sat lifelessly on the ground, the floor icy beneath her, making her even colder!
Instinctively, she wrapped her arms around her chest, curled her body tightly, trying to conserve as much heat as possible to avoid freezing to death in the cold weather.
Directly opposite her, in the corner of the room, a surveillance camera was capturing her every move.
At this moment, Huo Qinglin sat at a desk, his eyes locked on the computer screen, his hands clenched into tight fists.
He grabbed his phone, dialed a number, and snapped angrily, "Why did you put her in such a cold room?"
"Second Young Master Huo, please don’t be upset. It’s only for safety considerations."
"I told you—don’t mistreat her. Send her a warm coat immediately!" Huo Qinglin roared furiously.
"Apologies, Second Young Master, but I only follow Mr. Huo’s orders. Oh, by the way, he specifically instructed me earlier that I shouldn’t obey any of your commands." The voice on the other end sounded equally indifferent.
"Damn it! She’ll freeze to death like this!" Huo Qinglin erupted in anger, wishing he could rush over and take the woman away himself.
"Second Young Master, people who can’t be ruthless can never achieve greatness. Why care whether she lives or dies? I don’t believe just one cold night can kill her," the person finished speaking and promptly hung up.
Huo Qinglin’s face turned dark, his expression impossibly grim.
"Bastards! If anything happens to her, I swear I’ll slaughter every one of you!" Huo Qinglin shouted as he flung the phone onto the floor, his emotions edging towards collapse. He had never been so panicked and helpless before.
Meanwhile, Huo Tianfeng sat in his office, closely monitoring reports from informants.
"It’s been two hours since the video was sent—why hasn’t Yan Ting made a move?" The plan wasn’t progressing as smoothly as anticipated, leaving Huo Tianfeng fuming.
"President Huo, don’t be upset. I observed earlier that during Yan Ting’s speech, there were a few minor errors in his phrasing. This shows his mind has been shaken and disturbed. He may only be maintaining a surface-level composure. Let’s wait a little longer. If he truly cares about the woman’s life, he should be rushing to the airport by now."
"Keep a close eye on him," Huo Tianfeng commanded, letting out a cold laugh upon hearing about Yan Ting’s speech mistakes. If he remembered correctly, Yan Ting had an extraordinary memory—retaining any data he’d seen, and his speeches had never contained even a hint of error. Clearly, that woman was affecting him.
