Chapter 1167 - 1164: Light at the End of the Tunnel 5

"I’ll arrange it immediately, Xixi, let’s set off as soon as possible."

Seeing the look of suspicion on her face, Liu Daqing smiled slightly, "Xixi, I assure you, when you return to the country, you will be free. As for your matter with Donglin, once you’ve restored your identity, whether you choose to forgive him, whether you two stay together, it’s your choice. Maybe, you’ll eventually get married and have children; maybe, you’ll finally part ways. That depends on your choice, Donglin can’t force you."

Yan Xixi was speechless.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Liu Daqing opened the door, and Wan Donglin looked very serious, glanced at her, and focused on Yan Xixi’s face, "I just got a call, mom, we must return to the country immediately."

It was from the "Boss" who had previously spent large sums to help find someone.

"They said that the South Country authorities have obtained a top-secret document, and soon, astonishing news will be released... Mom, we have to leave, the sooner the better..."

This coincided with Liu Daqing’s concerns.

Yan Xixi no longer had a choice. Hesitating, Wan Donglin grabbed her backpack, took her hand, and turned to leave, "The plane is already waiting, we must leave South Country territory quickly."

Yan Xixi pushed his hand away, and he smiled bitterly, "Xixi, rest assured, the Empress Dowager is also here. I have no ill intentions and can’t scheme anything."

She gave him a disdainful look.

Liu Daqing noticed her awkwardness, chuckled inwardly and stepped forward, held her hand, patted it lightly, "Xixi, don’t be afraid. We’ll try not to stir up trouble, but if it’s unavoidable, we fear nothing. Pack up first, I’m waiting for you."

She nodded silently, and Liu Daqing moved to leave, closing the door behind him.

The phone rang; it was Li Zhen calling.

"Yan Xixi, I’m on vacation tomorrow, I’ll come see you..."

She said quietly, "Li Zhen, I’m going back to the country."

Li Zhen was very surprised, his voice urgent, "Yan Xixi, how are you going back? Isn’t it dangerous? No, you can’t go back recklessly, your documents aren’t complete, going back would be walking into a trap..."

"Wan Donglin and his mother are here to pick me up."

She answered unusually frankly, and Li Zhen was left speechless.

For a young heart, it was an unexpected blow—even if he never harbored any inappropriate thoughts, he naturally felt extremely disappointed.

But then he breathed a sigh of relief, "Oh well, Yan Xixi, you indeed should go back. Restoring your identity sooner will make things less dangerous."

His concern for her far exceeded what she had imagined.

And so, she was even more frank, "That’s right, Li Zhen, you know I must restore my identity. But now, apart from them, I truly don’t know who else to turn to."

The situation was overwhelming.

Staying alive was truly more important than anything else.

Li Zhen was just puzzled why Empress Dowager Liu was also there.

But in just a few days, they rushed from the country, clearly indicating the real situation was somewhat different from his speculations.

He was straightforward, "Yan Xixi, fixing your documents is the key, nothing else matters. I’ll visit you once you’re back."

"Li Zhen, I don’t know how to thank you enough."

He laughed, "At least, you told me your whereabouts first, didn’t you? Yan Xixi, I’ve already very happy."

After hanging up the phone, not knowing what to pack, she felt very confused.
