I’m actually in Jiangcheng right now!” Liu Haoran said on the phone. “Great! Everything’s great! I really found a great opportunity, you must come over! Here, you’ll discover what true paradise is!” Huo Yutong said excitedly, “Where are you? I’ll send someone to pick you up!” “No need, I just came to see you, and then I’ll leave. Just the two of us, is it okay to have a meal together?” Liu Haoran said. “Sure, but I’m still at work right now, I’m afraid I can only go out for a meal with you after I get off. How about you go to my place first, and I give you the address?” Huo Yutong said. “No need, I’ll play around in Jiangcheng. Just call me when you’re done with work.” Liu Haoran laughed, “This place is really nice.” “Alright then, I’ll transfer some money to you so you can enjoy yourself!” Without waiting for Liu Haoran to refuse, Huo Yutong transferred five thousand yuan to him. Then she hung up the phone. After work, Huo Yutong called Liu Haoran to confirm the place for dinner, wanting to meet Liu Haoran alone. However, she was refused by Zhao Long. “President Huo, our boss has instructed that you are now a high-priority protection subject. I must provide you with comprehensive protection. How about this, I’ll take you to the restaurant, you go inside, and I’ll wait outside. Is that acceptable?” Zhao Long said. Unable to decline, Huo Yutong agreed. Zhao Long drove Huo Yutong to the coffee shop they agreed upon. “Boyfriend?” On the way, Zhao Long asked. “Mhm, he’s also my benefactor.” Huo Yutong said. “Don’t you think something is off, President Huo?” Zhao Long said, “Given Xu Shaoming’s ruthlessness, if he knew Liu Haoran was your boyfriend, do you think he would let Liu Haoran come to Jiangcheng easily? Plus, it seems you couldn’t get in touch with Liu Haoran in the last two days, don’t you find that strange? And, where did Zhang Meiyu, who betrayed you, go? Haven’t you asked about her?” “Haoran would never betray me.” Huo Yutong shook her head vigorously, “If it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t have been able to leave Tianhai City at all!” “You once also thought that Zhang Meiyu wouldn’t deceive you.” Zhao Long said indifferently, “You might not like to hear this, but I still hope you can be more cautious. With Xu Shaoming’s nature, he will definitely stop at nothing to come after you. It’s better to be safe!” Huo Yutong stopped speaking. She really didn’t want to suspect Liu Haoran, after all, their relationship was very good. Liu Haoran had also helped her a lot. If she doubted such a friend, wouldn’t that be going too far? Moreover, they were already at the stage of discussing marriage. They were planning to get married after graduation. “You don’t have to worry, I’m just having doubts. Perhaps, he really hasn’t betrayed you. There are still good people in this world.” Seeing Huo Yutong’s mood was somewhat low, Zhao Long added, “Do what you want to do. We will ensure your safety. That’s my promise, and it’s also the boss’s promise!” Soon, they arrived at the agreed coffee shop. Zhao Long parked the car and watched Huo Yutong enter the coffee shop. Then, he took out his phone, “Hong Yi, can you please link the surveillance of Sweet Honey Coffee Shop to my computer?” Having finished speaking, he took a computer out of the trunk, connected it to power and the internet. Less than a minute later, every surveillance video from Sweet Honey Coffee Shop appeared on the computer screen. Zhao Long chose two of them, which were aimed precisely at the table where Huo Yutong and Liu Haoran were sitting. There was no sound in the surveillance feed, but it captured everything that happened. When Huo Yutong entered the coffee shop, she was very affectionate with Liu Haoran. After they sat down, Liu Haoran naturally ordered two cups of coffee. It was at this moment that Zhao Long saw Liu Haoran perform a sleight of hand, slipping something into Huo Yutong’s cup. “Sure enough, there’s a problem!” Zhao Long’s face grew dark. He didn’t care if Liu Haoran was Huo Yutong’s boyfriend or not; if he dared to make a move on Huo Yutong, he would definitely blow that guy’s head off. Since the coffee was too hot, neither of them drank it for the moment. “Haoran, you seem to be worried about something?” Huo Yutong looked at Liu Haoran and asked. “Yes, I am indeed troubled.” Liu Haoran didn’t deny it, “Zhang Meiyu has disappeared, and it’s a mysterious disappearance, we can’t find her no matter what.” “What! She hasn’t been harmed, has she?” Huo Yutong thought of Zhao Long’s warning. Even though Zhang Meiyu had betrayed her, she was still a close friend in the past, and Huo Yutong was shocked and saddened by the terrible news. “It’s very likely!” Liu Haoran said, “Xu Shaoming is a madman; they even found me and absurdly tried to get me to bring you back to Tianhai City. I pretended to agree with them. I came over this time to tell you to go abroad. The Xu family has extensive businesses; even Jiangcheng won’t be able to withstand their pressure. Even if they failed the first time, they will send even more powerful people to capture you later! You are putting both yourself and those who help you in danger!” “No!” Huo Yutong shook her head, “You haven’t seen Mr. Xiao and don’t know how formidable he is. That’s why you would say that. Mr. Xiao has established Xinmeng Electronics and made me a supervisor. He truly values talent, with your skills, joining Xinmeng Electronics would fetch you a base salary of at least one million a year. With that, you won’t have to worry about your family anymore; your parents have had a hard life, it’s time they had some good days!” As she spoke, Huo Yutong picked up her coffee. She blew on it and was about to drink it. Zhao Long didn’t move; after analyzing the surveillance, Sky Net had concluded the substance was a drug that could temporarily induce unconsciousness without causing substantial harm. So, there was no need for him to intervene. Liu Haoran’s expression changed over and over as he watched Huo Yutong pick up the coffee, obviously extremely conflicted. In the end, he grabbed the coffee cup from her, “Don’t drink it!” “Why?” Huo Yutong asked, astonished. “Yutong, I’m sorry, I can’t believe there was a time when I truly thought about betraying you! The coffee has been drugged.” Liu Haoran said painfully. He expected Huo Yutong to blame him, to scold him, to look down on him. But to his surprise, Huo Yutong grabbed his hand and said, “But you didn’t go through with it, did you? And I believe you must be under some indescribable pressure. Tell me, maybe I can help you!” “It’s no use! You can’t help me!” Liu Haoran knew all too well the horror of Xu Shaoming and the terror of the Xu family. His inability to betray Huo Yutong meant that he was going to be an unfilial son. His parents could end up as dog food. “Look at me!” Huo Yutong slapped Liu Haoran and said earnestly, “Calm down, indeed I can’t help you. But I believe Mr. Read latest Chapters at WuxiaWorld.Site Only Xiao can!” “Mr. Xiao?” Liu Haoran paused, “You’ve mentioned this Mr. Xiao several times, who exactly is he?”
