“The doctor is having his lunch now,” Xiao Yuqian said. “If you get some rest right now, he might come after you wake up later.”
Yuanbao quickly lay back down and closed his eyes.
Xu Xiyan and Xiao Yuqian waited until Yuanbao was sound asleep before leaving.
“Are you planning to tell the kid about his father?” Xu Xiyan asked when they were on the way to the garage.
“Didn’t I tell you that I’m not planning to do that soon?”
“But I don’t think it’s a bad thing to tell him. Just look at how much Haodong has changed for you. He is a responsible man now,” Xu Xiyan persuaded. “Most men would just run when they see people running around with a knife. Haodong was the only one who stood in and protected your mother and son. There’s nothing bad about that guy now. Giving him a chance means giving you a chance too.”
Everything that Xu Xiyan had said, Xiao Yuqian understood perfectly. But she lacked the courage, and she had no idea why she was so worried about it.
“I’ll go back now. Think about what I’ve just said, all right?” Xu Xiyan said as she walked out from the elevator, leaving Xiao Yuqian stunned in it.
Xu Xiyan really hoped that Xiao Yuqian would come to her senses and stop wasting time.
Xu Xiyan walked towards her car and started the engine once she got in.
But just as her car started to move out, a few cars also started their engines and drove towards her.
Two of the cars were right beside hers, and Xu Xiyan noticed that they were trying to ram her from both directions. She quickly stepped on the pedal and accelerated.
She avoided the collision as two other cars ran into each other.
She already guessed that those cars were waiting for her when other cars began to close in on her.
She noticed that another car had just left the garage, and the barrier was still opened. She couldn’t care less and stepped on her pedal, rushing through the barrier.
The cars that were after her were all blocked by the barrier as it closed down.
Xu Xiyan thought that she was safe when she left all the pursuers behind, but she was wrong. It was as if there was a GPS on her as other cars began to close in on her once again.
Xu Xiyan increased her speed on the highway and drove through the traffic as if they were playing cat and mouse.
She quickly dialed Huo Yunshen’s phone number and put on her Bluetooth earphone.
“Hey, where are you now? Do you need me to pick you up?” Huo Yunshen asked when he picked up the call.
“Yes! I’m on the outskirt highway now heading east! A few cars are chasing me from behind! Hurry up and send help!”
“I get it! Keep the line open! I’ll get there right away!”
