C80 Did He Give That Military Knife to You?

In the evening.

After work, he walked out of the office building and saw a familiar figure standing at the door.

When he saw her, he stood up straight and walked over. He was still wearing his demonic clothes and his thin collar was wide open. The small jade Buddha's body swayed along with his movements.

Xiao Yunzheng followed her as he walked out anxiously.

Lin Wanbai did not break away and was dragged along the way to the revolving door. "What are you doing?"

"Just follow me!"

Xiao Yunzheng only said that and stuffed her into the car.

He didn't even ask where he was going. The throttle was almost at its limit. He would look at his watch from time to time as if he was in a hurry.

Lin Wanbai was still confused when they arrived at the destination. It was the airport lobby that she had visited a few days ago. She just didn't know why she was here.

The exit was surrounded by a lot of people. Most of them were here to pick up the plane, and there were a lot of people holding signs.

Xiao Yunzheng also raised his head and looked around.

The radio warned of a certain flight landing from New York. Very quickly, a wave of people started to surge out.

Xiao Yunzheng's gaze suddenly locked onto something, "It's out!"

Lin Wanbai also followed his gaze and saw a man with short black sleeves. He was tall and straight with a thin black trench coat on his wrist.

"elder brother Feng, we are here!" Xiao Yunzheng raised his hand.

Yan Feng looked over upon hearing the commotion and quickened her pace.

When she reached him, Lin Wanbai licked her lips. "Brother Yan Feng …"

Maybe it was because they had already seen each other in the New York before, but they could still maintain a calm composure when meeting each other again.

Yan Feng shook her head and helplessly sighed at her. "This time I had some matters to handle back home during the holidays. I originally planned to give you a surprise, but I didn't expect that Yun Zheng would actually bring you here!"

"Won't this be a pleasant surprise for both of you?" Xiao Yunzheng raised his eyebrows.

Yan Feng smiled, raised her hand, and bumped into him in a manly manner.

This scene was too familiar. It would always be played out in the past. Lin Wanbai was even a little dazed, as if nothing had happened and nothing had changed …

Xiao Yunzheng Lei suggested without moving, "Come, let's go eat!"

The location was set by Xiao Yunzheng. When they arrived, Lin Wanbai found out that it was actually a private restaurant that Huo Changyuan and herself used to visit.

There were only three of them, but Xiao Yunzheng wanted a room with ten people, which completely reflected his identity as a young master.

The temperature of the air conditioner was very low. The hot pot used a clear and hot wolfberry chicken soup. After the waiter served all the dishes, he closed the door considerately.

When Yan Feng picked up the chopsticks, she seemed to have thought of something. "Oh right, Xiao Wen, are you very familiar with Director Huo?"

Lin Wanbai's hand that was scooping up the sesame paste stopped.

This was not the first time he had asked this question. He had been interrupted the last time, but now, he had changed his method.

"Director Huo?" Xiao Yunzheng interjected and started to answer for her lazily, "I know about this, Lin Wanbai's company has some business dealings with the Huo Family!"

"So that's how it is." Yan Feng nodded in understanding.

"Mm …" Lin Wanbai looked down guiltily.

Just as the copper pot boiled and bubbled, the phone in his bag suddenly rang.

Lin Wanbai fished out the chopsticks. It was unknown if there was something wrong with her heart, but she nearly dropped the chopsticks. On the screen, the words "Huo Changyuan" was displayed.

"Xiao Wen, aren't you going to answer the phone?" Yan Feng couldn't help but ask.

Lin Wanbai shook her head and put it back into her bag with a mute tone. "It's nothing. It's a number I don't know."

Yan Feng nodded. She didn't ask any further questions and just picked up two pieces of beef that had just been washed.

Lin Wanbai finished her meal, stood up from her seat and stuffed her phone into her pocket without leaving a trace. "I'm going to the washroom!"

After she entered one of the cubicles and closed the door, Lin Wanbai took out her cell phone.

It showed that the three missed calls were all from the same person. She swallowed and was about to call back when Huo Changyuan called again. It was as strong as if they were all his people.

"..." "Hello?"

"Why aren't you answering the phone!"

Sure enough, Huo Changyuan's tone was harsh.

Lin Wanbai faltered as she lied, "I didn't hear …" "What's wrong?"

"Come here." Huo Changyuan said two words to her.

Lin Wanbai held her hands behind her back. "I'm not feeling well today. I want to rest at home …"

"Tired from last night?" Huo Changyuan said in a mischievous tone.

"Mm …" She obeyed.

"Good luck!" Huo Changyuan laughed and scolded her. He paused and asked again, "Are you really not coming?"

Lin Wanbai hurriedly said, "I've already fallen asleep!"

"Forget it." Huo Changyuan hung up.

As if he was afraid that Ye Zichen would call him again, he just shut down the phone.

Lin Wanbai closed her eyes and lowered her head. Her hands were wet with sweat.

Returning to the room, Xiao Yunzheng looked at her and frowned, "Lin Wanbai, are you alright?"

Lin Wanbai shook her head.

Noticing Yan Feng's gaze, she smiled. "I'm fine …"

Lin Wanbai didn't know why she would lie to Huo Changyuan on the phone either.

Regardless of whether it was her previous male colleague Xiao Wu or Xiao Yunzheng, she was able to be confident in front of him. However, when she was together with Yan Feng, she did not dare to say it.

"..."

In the evening, Yan Feng took a taxi to bring her home.

Xiao Yunzheng drank a little too much. When he came out of the restaurant, he wobbled and told the driver to go back first. Compared to Yan Feng, she drank quite a bit too, but the quantity control was just right. Her eyes were very clear.

Lin Wanbai knew best that throughout his many years in the army, he had always been a very disciplined person.

The night breeze was cool and refreshing. Yan Feng put on her thin coat and tucked it around her like she was taking care of a child.

Lin Wanbai's heart trembled slightly as she opened her mouth. "Brother Yan Feng, I actually …"

She wanted to tell him that she had not gone to the airport because her grandmother had disagreed and had taken her to the hospital with a sudden heart attack. She had avoided him because she was afraid her sick grandmother would be hurt.

But now, he …

"Don't mention the past anymore." Yan Feng cut him off with a warm look.

"I …" Lin Wanbai's throat felt a little tight.

There seemed to be thousands of words hidden within, but he didn't know how to say them.

Yan Feng patted her shoulder and comforted her. "There's no need to think too much into it. Go up and rest."

"Alright." Lin Wanbai nodded.

Yan Feng called after her before she turned around. Her expression showed that she wanted to say something, but she hesitated. In the end, she only said, "Good night, Xiao Wen."

Lin Wanbai nodded and also replied, "Good night."

Watching the taxi leave, she wrapped the clothes around her shoulders and walked towards the residential building.

Just as he stepped into the corridor, the scent of tobacco assaulted him.

Lin Wanbai's body froze. The light from the sensor lights in the corridor was dim, but it couldn't compare to his deep eyes. His muscles were clenched as he spat out with a sinister voice, "Did he give that military blade to you?"
