He Yi ate her breakfast greedily. The sticky chicken porridge pressed against her stomach and filled up her hunger.

Yi Liangze saw that she was eating sweetly and could not help but smile. “Eat slowly. Later, I will take you to director Yang’s house as a guest to thank him for saving your life.”

“Cough!” He Yi choked. She took the tissue that Yi Liangze handed over and gently wiped the corner of her lips.

“It’s all thanks to director Yang’s timely dispatch of police officers to intercept that car at the toll booth. I should at least thank him in person!” Yi Liangze told with her.

It was not too much to thank him in person for saving her life. But… He Yi could not help but question, “Isn’t it the police’s duty and responsibility to eliminate violence and keep the peace?”

“He specially opened up a green channel for you and called for the Special Forces. The difference is that they can dispatch the police half an hour earlier.” Yi Liangze’s tone was indifferent, but his words carried a lot of weight.

The special police was not a police force deployed for ordinary people, but to carry out an important mission. Half an hour earlier was undoubtedly life-threatening for He Yi.

After a long time, He Yi said coldly, “I don’t have that much clout. It’s because of you, right?”

“Yes!” Yi Liangze admitted frankly, and then he added, “But director Yang asked to see you. I can’t say that you can’t see him.”

“…” He Yi seemed to have no reason to refuse.

The mountain road was bumpy, and the car was very unsettled. Wan Wan was car-sick. She kept vomiting, and occasionally, she sobbed softly.

Chu Tianyi’s face was cold, and he seemed to show a faint disgust, but he still took care of Wan Wan.

“Wuwu…” Wan Wan couldn’t help but ask in a low voice, “Dad, let’s go home.”

“We’re almost there.” Chu Tianyi explained coldly,”This part of the road is the most difficult to move on. We just need to make it through!”

How many years had it been since he last went back to his hometown? Maybe he should consider building a decent road for his hometown. However, after his father passed away, his hometown had almost no relatives anymore. He would send people to pay tribute to the ancestors’ graves every new year and festival, but he had never come back.

“Is mom here too?” Wan Wan asked while crying.

“She was supposed to be here, but now she’s not!” Chu Tianyi answered, “She left with another man!”

“Is she with Uncle Yi?” Wan Wan asked while crying, “Will you kill them?”

Chu Tianyi pursed his thin lips and refused to answer this question.

At this moment, his cell phone rang. He picked up the call and listened to a few sentences. He got even angrier. “What? Did they go to director Yang’s house? Good, Yi Liangze is good!”

No wonder He Yi was rescued by the special police in time. The Yi family’s connections were indeed strong.

“They can’t stay at the Police chief’s house forever!” Chu Tianyi heard himself grinding his teeth. “Lie in wait around. The safer the place they think is, the easier it is to succeed!”

*

He Yi didn’t expect the police chief to be so handsome. His tall and strong figure was no less than Yi Liangze’s. His features were handsome and well-defined. He was full of heroic strength and had a heroic spirit.

On the other hand, the wife of the police chief looked much older. With her round face and ordinary facial features, she didn’t seem to be a good match when she stood beside Yang Lixin.

However, the relationship between the husband and wife seemed to be very harmonious. They had the tacit understanding of an old married couple.

On the way here, He Yi and Yi Liangze had a general understanding of Yang Lixin’s family situation. His wife was the daughter of a high-ranking official. The two of them had been married for many years. Unfortunately, they did not have any children.

They handed over gifts, exchanged greetings, and then sat down to drink tea.

Mrs. Yang sized up He Yi and smiled amiably. “After so many years, I’ve finally met the baby’s mother!”

He Yi’s heart suddenly trembled, as if someone had pierced a thorn in her heart. The baby’s mother… She was the baby’s mother!

After learning the truth, she had been avoiding this fact. At this moment, she was caught off guard by Mrs. Yang’s shout. Her body seemed to have been violently pushed by someone, and she almost lost her balance.

“That’s right. Sister-in-law has delicate features and is elegant and noble. One look and you can tell that she is from a noble family!” Yang Lixin asked Yi Liangze with certainty, “Am I right?”

Yi Liangze gave a thumbs up. “As expected of a scout. Brother’s eyes are still so sharp!”

Yang Lixin lit a cigarette and threw one at Yi Liangze.

Yi Liangze took it and put it aside, smiling without saying a word.

This time, without waiting for Yang Lixin to speak, Mrs. Yang spoke first, “You’ve given up smoking!”

Yi Liangze’s smile was extremely reserved. “No, but… I usually don’t smoke in front of your younger sister-in-law.”

He Yi was stunned. She didn’t expect him to say such a thing. In front of the Yang couple, he had undoubtedly given her enough respect by saying this.

However, it was the truth. Because she disliked the smell of cigarettes, he had never smoked in front of her ever since.

“Good!” Yang Lixin praised, “You finally met someone who can control you. Your wild horse has also been put on the reins!”

Initially, he thought that He Yi was just a mother to his son. Now, it seemed that her position in Yi Liangze’s heart was indeed unusual.

“It’s also a kind of happiness to have someone controlling you.” Yi Liangze smiled meaningfully. “Brother should have experienced it personally!”

“Hehe.” Yang Lixin nodded with a smile and flicked his cigarette ash. “It’s indeed not bad!”

*

Because He Yi was in a hurry to return to cloud city, Yi Liangze tactfully rejected the Yang couple’s invitation to stay for lunch and left.

Just as he got into the car, He Yi heard her phone ring. She opened it and saw that it was Chu Tianyi’s call. She was stunned and her expression changed.

Yi Liangze noticed her abnormality and looked over. He saw that it was Chu Tianyi’s name and he narrowed his eyes.

He Yi took a deep breath and picked up the phone, waiting for the other party to speak coldly.

“Mom,” Wan Wan’s cry came from the phone. “Dad wants to send someone to kill you and Uncle Yi. You have to be careful… Ah…”

“Wan Wan!” He Yi heard a faint scream from the phone. The call was cut off, and she couldn’t help but feel goosebumps all over her body. It must be that Chu Tianyi had found out that Wan Wan was calling her. She dialed back frantically, but the phone was hung up again. She dialed again, but the phone was turned off.

After throwing the phone away, He Yi grabbed Yi Liangze in a panic. “What do we do? What do we do? Will Chu Tianyi kill Wan Wan to silence her?”

Wan Wan might have overheard the terrible news. She stole Chu Tianyi’s phone to give her a call, but Chu Tianyi found out about it again. Without a doubt, the child was doomed.

Yi Liangze was also a little surprised, but looking at the panicking He Yi, he knew he had to calm down first. “Don’t panic, I know Chu Tianyi took Wan Wan to Cangzhou. Why don’t we go to Cangzhou first, save Wan Wan, and then return to Yun City together?”

He Yi could only grip his wrist tightly as if it was the last piece of driftwood that could save her life. “Quickly get the driver to reverse the car. We’ll go back and ask director Yang to send police forces to Cangzhou with us!”
