Lao Chen went out of his way to scheme for Meng Chengjun’s benefit. In the end, Meng Chengjun became his downfall.
Due to Xu Lan’s sudden disappearance, Lao Chen approached the Provincial Party Committee with the intention of bribing them to replace Xu Lan with Meng Chengjun at the commendation ceremony. His actions attracted the attention of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.
The investigation outcome was announced yesterday and Xiao Feng visited Lao Chen. During their conversation, Lao Chen became agitated and in turn, his blood pressure rose. Subsequently, Lao Chen was rushed to the hospital.
The four of them talked at length and Xu Lan found out about the current situation at Whitehorse City. The key events were, Xu Lan had been deposed due to his absence without notice, a new chief was scheduled to take office the day after, and there was no new information about 928 as the enemies were alerted.
Xu Lan and Wang Meng enjoyed talking to each other. Meanwhile, Bai Wu yawned in his bed while Xiao Feng depleted his phone battery while waiting for the conversation to end. Bai Wu urged Xiao Feng to leave with Wang Meng.
“Heck! Xiao Feng! You! You…”
“Papa…” Xu Lan was halted by Bai Wu when he tried to walk everyone out. He was surprised by Bai Wu’s low and sexy voice.
“Heck! Are you addicted to it now?” Xu Lan yelled to mask his embarrassment.
“I… I need time to change how I address you,” Bai Wu whispered after being scolded by Xu Lan. He felt wronged yet happy at the same time.
“Pft, didn’t you refuse to acknowledge that I’m your father back then? What’s going on now?” Xu Lan chuckled and fell back into his seat. He crossed his arms and tried to fall asleep.
“Papa! How can you still fixate on this even after I’ve apologized to you?” Bai Wu was anxious and even tried to stand up.
“What are you doing? Fine, fine, it’s my bad. It’s getting late, let’s just call it a night shall we?” Xu Lan got up hurriedly and held Bai Wu down. Bai Wu took advantage of the position and latched onto Xu Lan. He gestured at the empty spot next to him.
“Sleep here,” Bai Wu said in an innocent tone.
“You…”
Before Xu Lan could reject Bai Wu, he found himself in bed and tucked in under the blanket. After tucking Xu Lan in, Bai Wu hugged him and lay intimately on his chest.
“I’ll address you as my uncle then. With the exception of Xiao Zhang, everyone here thinks that I’m your nephew. Right, Uncle Xu?” Bai Wu gave Xu Lan’s stubble a peck and chuckled happily.
“I saw Liang Yu today. He’s the one who intended to capture us back when we first tried to travel through dimensions,” Xu Lan sighed and combed his fingers through his hair as he spoke fearfully.
“…” When he looked down, he was surprised to find Bai Wu asleep. He chuckled after realizing how hard the little one tried to stay awake just to spend more time with him.
He decided to work things out as he went. Xu Lan adjusted the temperature to twenty-six degrees Celcius before tucking himself in.
It was late spring, early summer. The spring rain fell endlessly at night while the trees outside tried to absorb as much nutrients as they could before summer came. With sufficient sunlight in the summertime, the trees would grow and prosper.
Fang Lingzi and the businessman were sent away by Wang Meng. It was unsure when Ka Daiwen left. At that moment, Bai Wu and Xu Lan were the only ones left. The duo cuddled to sleep.
A quiet and peaceful night used to be a luxury to them; how many peaceful nights did they have left?
The water in Sancha River was disturbingly black. Eerie laughter could occasionally be heard, as though the river was waiting for its next victim to leap in. Lao Chen lay on the sickbed, it was not certain how many days he had left. Liang Yu and Qin Lao discussed at length; the new chief was on his way.
