C34 Conversely

"You still want to come back?" Liu Bo opened his eyes and looked at the person that walked in, it was the Liu Chao that he could not find that morning.

He walked to the bedside and comforted her: "Dad, you can scold me however you want, but there are some things I want to say anyway. Yu Sheng is a little weird, you can't be untrustworthy.

"You just arrived, how did you know your brother was missing?" He was originally worried for his son's safety, and his expression turned ugly. But when he heard Liu Chao's words, his face immediately darkened, and he glared at Liu Chao in fury.

Liu Chao was speechless.

While his family members were still awake, he sneakily left the house, borrowed an old phone from a friend, and made a new card to send a message to Ying Xue.

That night, he informed Ying Xue to escape. Afterwards, he received a message with a different number on it. He had expected the phone to be taken away.

He found a milk tea shop nearby to rest, while constantly sending Ying Xue messages.

After waiting for more than two hours, a courier boy came to the milk tea shop and gave him a delivery letter from the same city. Inside was a hotel room card, Ying Xue told him to go to the Southern Wai Hotel and help her take her luggage.

The address on the delivery slip was from a district near Nantong High School.

No. 1201, 12th floor, Building B, Pentacle Star District, Nantong County School District.

Liu Chao was worried that Yu Sheng would investigate his whereabouts through the surveillance, hence he found a place to quickly deliver the luggage to. He sent the luggage to the address and took a taxi to school.

Whether it was renting or buying, Liu Chao's classmates and friends had many families in the vicinity. He contacted a classmate from the same district and treated it as if he was going to his classmate's house to play, but he only stayed at his classmate's house for half an hour.

Ying Xue was extremely cautious. She only showed up after she had confirmed that there was nothing on Liu Chao's body.

The emergency situation was last night, and the phone call was only to inform Ying Xue to escape. Liu Chao had come over this time to inform Ying Xue of everything they had talked about at the dining table.

But if Yuesheng was hiding something from Liu Chao, and had schemed for Ying Xue to let her live in the Liu Family, Ying Xue's explanation to Liu Chao would be the same.

Therefore, she had recommended that Yu Sheng ask for a lifespan of relatives, for the lifespan of blood relatives, and the lifespan she had borrowed would not be reduced at all. The first person to have borrowed lifespan, was Liu Lin, and she had tried to build a good relationship with the Liu family to make it easier for her to make her move, but Ying Xue's family was a clan of Yin and Yang Warlocks. She had accepted this mission and came to the Nantong to work at a tea room. Since she had learnt the Way of Tea, she stayed by the Liu family's side to apply.

A perfect set of words.

When Liu Chao thought of this, he more and more felt that Yu Sheng and Lu Piaoqing were suspicious. He even recalled the contents of the letter and even more so suspected that his grandfather's' serious illness' was a result of his longevity, which was why he knew about the situation in the letter.

The matter of Liu Tang's disappearance was also told to him by Sister Ying Xue, in order to make the Liu Family completely believe her.

Liu Chao took the initiative to tell the unfavorable news to his family and admitted that it was Ying Xue who told him.

"If she says that you will believe her, then what about the evidence?" Hearing that, Liu Bo's face did not look good, he was dissatisfied with his eldest son's blind faith in outsiders.

Liu Bo had always been satisfied with Liu Chao teaching his eldest son. He was more mature and prudent than his peers, so he would not easily lose out, and was very suitable to do business. But just because of a woman, Liu Chao easily believed in her and was taken advantage of.

"What evidence do they have?" Liu Chao also did not understand his parents' stubbornness.

Liu Bo threw the contract onto Liu Chao, and said angrily: "Just by relying on this contract, there's a legal effect!"

Liu Bo was a businessman, he had signed many contracts and also had a lawyer that he was familiar with. When the two left, he had consulted someone else and confirmed that the contract was for counting the money, so he would be held accountable for violating the contract.

Liu Chao didn't bother to scream out in pain, he caught the contract and read through it seriously, carefully pondering over the terms. The more he read, the worse his expression got.

Although the terms were quite unreasonable, they were indeed a proper contract.

The other party had used all kinds of legal methods. For the citizens, if they couldn't even believe this, they wouldn't have to live the rest of their lives.

Seeing Liu Chao's expression, Liu Bo said: "You are so capable, let that woman sign a contract for me, when the time comes, come and discuss with me who to trust, who not?"

"He's still young, there's nothing we can do even if he's cheated." Seeing that the father and son pair were not backing down, the atmosphere was in a deadlock. Huang Guijiao hurriedly tried to persuade her, then signaled to Liu Chao, "Hurry up and apologize to your father, don't look for that woman anymore."

"Dad, I'm sorry." Liu Chao apologized honestly and put the contract on the sickbed, "I'll go home and see if Ah Tang has any news."

Saying that, Liu Chao turned around with a complicated expression.

Liu Bo still wanted to say something. Huang Guijiao pulled him back, reminding him of the people from the Small Paper Man.

Only then did Liu Bo remember Lu Lianqing's instructions. He took out the Small Paper Man and saw it flying towards Liu Chao like a living creature.

Just when Small Paper Man was two steps away from Liu Chao, he suddenly combusted.

A thin sheet of paper was burnt to ashes in the blink of an eye, but it disappeared before it could land on the ground.

Liu Bo's expression immediately changed greatly. He strode forward and grabbed Liu Chao's arm, and asked with a dark expression: "What's on your body?"

Liu Chao frowned in pain, thinking back to the safety amulet Ying Xue let him carry on him, he finally saw his father's face again and replied, "What is it?"

Seeing that Liu Chao still did not know his wrongs and did not hide anything, Liu Bo became furious in his heart. Just as he was about to search Liu Chao's body, a voice sounded out in his mind.

"Let him go." It was the voice of the person who had heard Lu Zhiqing earlier.

Liu Bo's actions stopped as he retreated half a step. He shook his head tiredly, looking like he had just lost control of himself and was filled with regret. "It's alright, we still have lessons tomorrow.

Liu Chao's heart skipped a beat, upon hearing this, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

"Then I'll be going back. Don't stay up late, it's not good for your health."

"Yes."

Walking to the elevator, Liu Chao breathed out the breath he was holding and relaxed.

On the top floor, Lu Jingqing scattered the ashes in his hands and stood at the edge looking down, "I have indeed seen it."

"Do you want to follow them?" Yu Sheng's fingers gripped the iron net as he stared at the entrance of the Inpatient Department.

"No need, I have a method that can save Liu Tang and also allow her to automatically appear in your surroundings." In the dim light of the night, both light and darkness interweaved, reflecting Lu Li's silhouette with a bit of malice. The emotions in his eyes carried a bit of ridicule and disdain, making him look like a king looking down on the world.
