The Billionaire's Hidden Affection-Chapter 424 - 421: Beat Some More, Thousands of Yuan 3_1

Wan Donglin saw the undisguised suspicion on her face and chuckled in exasperation. "It’s quite a coincidence tonight. There was a salon hosting renowned economists at that club. I saw Huang Xiaojue and Zhou Ting, so I didn’t show myself. I chatted with an economist in a private room for half an hour. Unexpectedly, when I heard you’d arrived here, I was also curious about what you were doing."

She grumbled, "Could things really be that coincidental?"

He retorted coldly, "Believe it or not, I do."

She wanted to laugh but couldn’t. In her heart, she actually understood: she was such a minor figure, it really wasn’t worth Wan Donglin bothering to deal with her. He couldn’t possibly be bored to that extent.

"Yan Xixi, I’m leaving for Switzerland."

She stared at him blankly. What did he mean by that?

"My mother has gradually sold off all the family’s assets in the country. From now on, our whole family will be settling in Switzerland."

Then, she suddenly asked, "So, you’re never coming back?"

"Yes."

He said nonchalantly, "Switzerland is beautiful and has long been peaceful. My mother wishes to live there quietly in her old age without any more disturbances. Of course, she also expects me to marry and have children in Ruo City as soon as possible."

She was stunned, even forgetting to ask when exactly he was leaving.

He added on his own, "I’ll be leaving soon. Rest assured, this annoying fellow I am will not bother you anymore."

She didn’t reply.

Wan Donglin glanced at her casually. She was dazed, possibly still shocked from earlier, her entire demeanor appearing particularly forlorn.

He couldn’t recall how many times he had resolved to ignore her. Yet, he would always remember the night she first learned she was pregnant. Fearing he would force her to have an abortion immediately, she would twitch in her sleep, terrified and uneasy, even when deeply asleep. He sighed inwardly. This girl, who always lacked a sense of security, was she afraid that once he left, she would have no one to rely on? She professed her love for Huang Xiaojue so often, but Huang Xiaojue had never been able to be her support, had he?

He suddenly recalled her message from that day: "You, ’Dirty Dude,’ you’re so much better than my ex-boyfriend. You’re upright and wise, and I feel like we have so much in common..."

That was much higher praise than she had ever given Huang Xiaojue! He couldn’t help but muse. Could it be that under a different identity, he held such an esteemed position in her heart? And they had so much in common! Yan Xixi, ah, Yan Xixi, if only you could tell me how you feel to my face someday.

Yan Xixi was lost in her thoughts all the way until they reached the turn at the street corner. Only then did she speak softly, "You can stop the car. I’m here."

"I’ll take you home."

"No need!"

She stared at him. "Didn’t you say I’m not in danger anymore? Is there still a threat?"

"There really isn’t any!"

He stopped the car and watched as she got out.

From behind, he noticed that she was wearing a gaudy red and purple dress tonight. The colors were loud and the pattern vivid. It couldn’t be said to possess any real taste, but on her slender figure, it exuded a brazen, extreme beauty.

His mobile phone rang. It was Zhang Xiang’s voice, "Third Master, everything has been taken care of. Those two were indeed policemen, but they were from a small, local police station and of very low caliber. Reportedly, they had a prior record of dereliction of duty and were thought to have been suspended. It’s unclear where these two rash youths were found to act as point men. They claimed to have taken money from the Wang Family to do their bidding."

The Wang Family? Are they really that powerful?
