After missing the pick-up and failing to reach anyone by phone, Han Xiayang had no choice but to return from the airport. Just as he stepped into his house, soone’s call ca in.
"What’s up? I just got off the plane. Did you pick up the person?"
"I called you because I didn’t pick up the person."
The person on the other end of the line quickly frowned, "Didn’t pick up the person? How could that be."
To avoid being criticized for incompetence, Han Xiayang hurriedly explained to the person on the other end of the phone, "I’ve already had soone investigate. The little guy you wanted to pick up did buy a ticket, but he didn’t board the plane."
"Okay, I understand. I’ll leave the company to you for the next few days. When I get back, I’ll let you have a good rest."
"Eh, what’s with the formalities between brothers? You just handle things well."
No matter how much they usually ss around or complain, in critical monts, brothers remain brothers and should stand up to support each other, even if he doesn’t know what’s so good about An Nan.
Standing in the AéroportsdeParis airport hall, Lin Mubai tightly held his phone, his brow furrowing deeper by the mont. The person wasn’t picked up. Could sothing have happened to the little guy?
A wave of panic flashed through his heart. Although he had only t the little guy once and it might be for sentintal reasons, he felt a strong fondness. Now, with no idea where the person was, he naturally felt worried.
He had just picked up his phone again, ready to ask his friends in the United States to help find the person when he saw an unfamiliar international number flashing on the screen. He felt an instant sense of suspicion, realizing this was his personal number known to only a few people, and even more suspicious given it was an unfamiliar international number.
The phone rang for a while and was disconnected, only to start ringing again persistently, "Who is this?"
"An Jiayou."
Upon hearing this na, Lin Mubai’s initial unease quickly settled down, "Where are you?"
"Pick up at the AéroportsdeParis airport in ten hours."
Lin Mubai instantly furrowed his brow, "How do you even know I’m in France?"
"Hmph, it’s simple. If you really cared about An Nan, you would naturally be in France at this very mont, and have just arrived. If you’re really not there, I would just pass you over. I don’t mind making Zhan Qiyi my stepdad since I’ve seen how much he likes An Nan over the years."
"You..." Lin Mubai was at a loss for words. Is this really just a kid in their teens? The sharpness of their words and intellect was sothing else; it was easy to imagine they’d be a force to be reckoned with in a few years.
At the sa ti, Lin Mubai, being incredibly smart, couldn’t miss the deeper aning in the little guy’s words. In their mind, who loved An Nan wasn’t the problem; the important thing was who An Nan loved.
At that mont, he couldn’t help but find the situation a bit laughable and yet frustrating. He then continued speaking into the phone, "Okay, take your ti. I’ll be waiting for you here. Don’t forget to turn on your phone once you disembark."
"Okay, see you in ten hours."
During these ten hours, Lin Mubai decided to find a certain little woman first.
After getting off the plane, An Nan declined Zhan Qiyi’s invitation to dinner, "I don’t want to eat anything for now. Let’s talk after I wake up. I’m really tired right now."
"Alright then, I’ll take you to the hotel first."
"Thank you."
Typically, An Nan didn’t have the habit of turning on their phone imdiately upon arriving at a hotel. They usually waited until they woke up. Today was no different, so naturally, they didn’t see the news about themselves online.
