Chapter 1753: Having to Let Go

At this moment, the West Hall Master no longer possessed his former imposing manner.

Even toward a lowly doctor, he lowered his posture, his words filled with entreaty.

The doctor examined Xu Nianxin's condition and said, "It appears to be a psychological issue. The Hospital can arrange for a psychologist, but... your situation is very special; you need to wait for approval."

Indeed, both the West Hall Master and Xu Nianxin were under criminal charges.

How could they do whatever they wanted like before?

But could his daughter really afford to wait?

The West Hall Master was in despair, and he also loathed his own incompetence.

And under the surge of intense emotion...

The West Hall Master's vision went black, and he fainted!

During his unconsciousness, the West Hall Master felt as if he had experienced an adventure.

His body was constantly jolting.

There were also strange sounds in his ears.

When he wearily opened his heavy eyelids...

He was unexpectedly not in the Hospital!

Not far from him, a private jet was parked.

Beside the plane, a person was standing.

Because they were backlit, the West Hall Master could not see the other person's face clearly. He only vaguely sensed that the person had a sturdy build.

"Who are you?"

Hearing the voice, that person turned around.

That person smiled at the West Hall Master, their voice low: "You're awake?"

It was actually Ping Ge!

Ping Ge walked leisurely to the West Hall Master's side and sighed: "You've worked hard these past few days. Now, leave this place."

The West Hall Master certainly wanted to leave!

The decision he regretted most now was letting his daughter and himself come to this godforsaken place!

But...

"My daughter is still here, how can I leave? Look, you can take me away, so you can also take Nianxin away, right?"

The West Hall Master pinned his hopes on Ping Ge.

But a single sentence from Ping Ge shattered his fantasy: "Don't even think about it. Her situation is different from yours; she cannot leave and must stay here."

Upon hearing this, the West Hall Master stumbled back a few steps, a look of disillusionment hanging on his face.

He could not accept this reality, shaking his head repeatedly and muttering: "This won't do! This absolutely won't do!"

"But do you have a solution?"

"I..." The West Hall Master was speechless.

If he had a way, how could he have watched things develop to this point?

He clutched his head in pain and roared: "Then we can't just leave Nianxin here alone!"

"Your daughter's ending can only be this way. At most, I can help pull some strings so that her days inside won't be too difficult."

As Ping Ge spoke, he patted the West Hall Master on the shoulder.

Then he continued: "Just manage Wuyou Hall well. Perhaps one day, you can use your network of influence to rescue your daughter."

Ping Ge's words allowed the West Hall Master to see a glimmer of hope.

The hope was very slim, but it was still better than nothing, wasn't it?

And also...

The West Hall Master clenched his fists tightly, his voice squeezed out from between his teeth: "All of this is because of Xie Wanyi!"

Ping Ge saw that the West Hall Master harbored thoughts of mutual destruction.

He could not help but warn: "I know you hate him, but with your strength, you are no match for him at all. Even if you give it your all, you won't cause him any trouble."

"Then I can only watch him walk away unscathed!"

"Why don't you understand? Your current trump card is Wuyou Hall. Only by managing it well can you turn the situation around. Right now, saying anything else is futile!"

After speaking, Ping Ge pointed behind him.

Then he offered a choice: "If you want to fight for a future, come with me. If you can't bear to leave your daughter, go back and turn yourself in!"

The West Hall Master gave a bitter smile.

Did he even have a choice now?

The West Hall Master turned his head, looking deeply toward the direction of the city center, and then heartlessly boarded the helicopter!

As a rumbling sound rose up, the West Hall Master shed hot tears.

He said silently: Nianxin, give Daddy some time. When we meet again, Daddy will definitely take you away! And also...

Xie Wanyi, sooner or later, I will peel your skin and dismantle your bones!

Although Li Xingyan was not in the country, he had been paying close attention to news about the West Hall Master and his daughter.

Therefore, he knew that the West Hall Master had gone missing at the first opportunity.

This variable made Li Xingyan frown.

He immediately called Xie Wanyi.

Xie Wanyi did not mention the West Hall Master, but instead urged: "It should be late at night over there, why aren't you sleeping yet? Take care of your health."

Li Xingyan did not need Xie Wanyi's concern.

He urged with a hint of impatience, "Stop dawdling, answer me first: how did Xu Nianxin's father go missing?"

"What else could it be? After all, he is in charge of Wuyou Hall. Whether for the sake of substance or face, it was impossible to let him stay and go to prison."

"Then why didn't you send people to keep an eye on him?"

"Because it was meaningless."

This answer made Li Xingyan's brow furrow even deeper.

Xie Wanyi continued, "The person who truly committed the wrong is Xu Nianxin; she has already paid the price. And the West Hall Master's departure signifies that he has abandoned Xu Nianxin. Isn't that another form of punishment?"

Xie Wanyi's explanation... was actually quite reasonable.

Li Xingyan's brow smoothed out a little.

Then, he heard Xie Wanyi say, "The matter here has already been settled and isn't worth spending any more effort on. On the contrary, you should seize the opportunity on your end."

"Mm, I'm right outside Mobai's house."

As soon as his voice fell, he saw a very flashy car drive over with a roar.

Li Xingyan's eyes darkened, and then he said, "I'll stop for now."

After speaking, Li Xingyan hung up the phone and then stepped out of his car.

On Jiang Mobai's side, he smoothly parked the car in the space, lifted the door, and stepped out with a dashing movement.

Although he and Li Xingyan were born of the same mother, because of their personalities and temperaments, the differences between the two were becoming increasingly obvious.

Now, no one would ever confuse the two of them again.

However, the telepathic connection between them still existed.

Sure enough, before Jiang Mobai even saw Li Xingyan, he sensed something.

He turned his head abruptly and saw a tall, steady figure.

This made Jiang Mobai immediately reveal a brilliant smile: "Long time no see, big brother."

As he spoke, Jiang Mobai was about to give Li Xingyan a bear hug.

But Li Xingyan pushed Jiang Mobai away with disdain and frowned, saying, "You didn't come straight back after the competition ended; where did you go to fool around again!"

"Hey, I took first place, didn't I? So I went to have a little celebration with a few friends."

"Finding an excuse to go indulge in debauchery is simply a waste of precious time!"

"What's wrong with indulging? It's also a way of life. You have to respect everyone's choices."

"But you've delayed my plans!"

Jiang Mobai raised his eyebrows slightly, wanting to ask what he had delayed him with.

However...

Jiang Mobai didn't ask.

Because he suddenly remembered the plan Li Xingyan had instructed him on over the phone earlier today.

As a result...

Jiang Mobai had forgotten!

He had even been out playing with friends until just now!

He had made Li Xingyan wait here for him until the middle of the night for nothing!
