Chapter 306: Chapter 306
No one knew better than Li Tianyao himself that Gu Shifang’s actual target was him. An Yan was merely a pawn Gu Shifang had found to control him.
But Li Yanluo’s target was undoubtedly An Yan.
Her escape meant that An Yan could be facing danger at any time.
That madwoman must have targeted Miss Yan An this time, probably because she bore some resemblance to An Yan.
If she wanted to take An Yan’s place, she would certainly try every possible way to make An Yan disappear.
"I know, but she isn’t an immediate danger to me. She needs vitality, and if I just pay attention to that, I can sense her."
An Yan held his hand to her face. "On the other hand, if you were to fall ill, I’m not sure if I could still wake you! So, Husband, trust me! Just as I trust you! Alright?"
The man silently looked at her.
He couldn’t put his mind at ease!
Yet, her concerns were correct. Li Yanluo might be dangerous, but she was still someone they could guard against.
He, however, who could fall ill at any moment, was the real unstable factor!
She had woken him this time, but what about the next?
An Yan was as busy as a top.
Li Tianyao was leaving, so all kinds of supplies and various food ingredients needed to be fully prepared. An Yan personally oversaw everything.
Meanwhile, Li Tianyao took advantage of her being busy to quickly delete all information connecting him to Huanuo Pharmaceuticals.
No matter who investigated, the person who had fiercely dealt with Lukang at Huanuo that year was a man named Eric Sen, not him, Li Tianyao!
"You don’t need to bring these, right?" Li Tianyao couldn’t help but ask, seeing An Yan direct workers to load clothes onto the plane.
An Yan shook her head. "We need them. Clothes, food, shelter, travel—for all kinds of supplies, the more the better!"
"Alright then." Li Tianyao’s lips curled up.
He actually quite enjoyed watching the little girl busying herself for him.
"Ninth Master, Miss, Luolie is on the phone!" Wen Ya came running over with a mobile phone.
On the other end of the call, Luolie’s voice carried a hint of excitement. "Ninth Master, Miss, with Miss Yan An’s help, we’ve successfully located Gu Xiu’s hiding place."
An Yan was instantly overjoyed. "Cousin Yan An really is incredible!"
Luolie agreed, "Indeed, Miss Yan An is very professional! Without her, we wouldn’t have been this successful."
She hadn’t expected Luolie to praise someone! How very strange.
After giving his praise, Luolie continued his report. "Was Town is an emerging tourist town that integrates various forms of entertainment. It’s about thirty kilometers from Yuncheng. Our people are now scattered around the town and ready to act at any moment."
"What about Buddha?" Li Tianyao asked.
"No news of Buddha for the moment."
"Then don’t startle the snake. Keep Gu Xiu under surveillance first."
"Once we find Buddha and confirm his identity, there’s no need to report back. Kill him on the spot!"
An Yan leaned in with a reminder. "Take good care of my cousin, and tell her to take care of herself too!"
Luolie replied, "Miss Yan An said she’s fine and that the medicine you gave her is very effective!"
After the call ended, An Yan grabbed Li Tianyao’s hand. "Now you can relax, right? With your men’s abilities, Gu Xiu couldn’t fly away now even if he sprouted wings."
「On the day of departure.」
The sky was clear, the clouds like cotton.
Various top-tier, fresh ingredients were continuously being loaded onto the plane.
Knowing that Li Tianyao would be gone for many days, An Yan wanted him to take the best things in the world with him.
"Little girl, I can go by myself. You don’t need to see me off!"
"Yes, I do. I also want to see the place where you’ll be staying! To make sure you can live well."
He was still rational now, so essentials like clothing, food, accommodation, and transportation should all be well-prepared.
He naturally couldn’t bring a chef, so she had prepared many semi-finished ingredients for him. They could usually be stored in the fridge and simply heated when needed.
To store these ingredients, she had even purchased two extra-large freezers.
"After I leave, Lin Ling and Luolie will stay with you. Lu Feng will return to the Li Corporation headquarters to help Tang Junyi manage the company. If you need anything, you can contact Lu Feng!"
"Don’t let the An Family go abroad. Believe me, the environment here is much safer than overseas. If Gu Shifang still has any remaining followers, he can only arrange for them to be abroad."
"I’ve already notified the military. They will also send people to protect you and your family!"
"In fifteen hours, we’ll be separated." His voice was low, betraying his deep reluctance to part.
An Yan felt a pang in her heart. They hadn’t even parted yet, and she already felt an emptiness inside.
Am I going to feel this miserable for the next fifteen hours? No, I can’t let that happen!
An Yan curved her lips and smiled at him. "So we need to cherish every minute and every second that comes next!"
Li Tianyao gazed at her intently, his eyes greedy.
For the first time, he loathed his illness so much!
Raising his hand, he caressed her cheek. "You’re right. We should cherish it!"
The man bowed his head and planted a kiss on her lips, then with one long arm, he lifted her. His long legs strode up the boarding stairs, taking her into the cabin.
His warm breath fanned her neck, his voice brimming with deep emotion. "How do you suggest we cherish it? ?"
His large hand controlled the back of her head, forcing her to meet his gaze.
An Yan struggled uncomfortably but was forcefully held still.
"Little girl, this time we might be apart for a long time!"
He looked at her, his gaze somewhat resembling that of a large dog begging for a treat. An Yan instinctively complied, raising her arms to wrap them around his neck.
The temperature inside the cabin rose steadily.
The plane began its slow taxi. It would soon take off.
An Yan’s phone started to vibrate.
She reached out. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel•fire.net
But Li Tianyao was quicker, pushing the phone out of her reach.
An Yan looked at him speechlessly. "Could it be a message from Luolie?"
Only then did Li Tianyao displeasedly retrieve her phone and hand it to her.
She tapped it open and saw a video.
In the video was Luo Zi’ang, his hair graying!
He was handcuffed to an iron pillar, his body in an awkward pose, unable to either sit down or stand up straight.
An Yan jerked, sitting bolt upright.
The voice from the video played, "An Yan, this is Gu Xiu! If you want to save Luo Zi’ang, have Li Tianyao come find me!"
"The address is Foguang Industrial Park, right next to Was Town!"
"You have three hours. If I don’t see Li Tianyao in three hours, Luo Zi’ang will be meeting King Yama."
Three hours was roughly the flight time from Shangjing City to the outskirts of Yuncheng.
"Oh, and tell your people to behave themselves. Otherwise, Luo Zi’ang might meet King Yama before you and Li Tianyao even arrive!"
