The Investors

Chapter 31

Xiao Meilin who heard Cia Yonggan's definite answer turned her eyes away from the young man. For a long time he seemed to reflect as if he was linking everything between Cia Yonggan and Gao Mei Gui and Hei Laohu's association.

Wasn't Cia Yonggan just the lover of the daughter of the late leader Hei Laohu, completely unrelated to the gathering, then why was the young man persecuted to such an extent that he would even be drowned? Hey Laohu recently changed leaders, lest this new Hei Laohu leader dislike the relationship between the two young people for some reason, but what is the reason?

He was pensive for a long time, but anyway, he could not guess what the real reason behind the events that befell Cia Yonggan. He himself was reluctant to interfere in people's affairs, let alone the affairs of underground societies that were not far from criminal acts. By saving this Cia Yonggan only indirectly he had been dragged into the affairs of the underground society. But it's a responsibility, he's come this far, there's no way he could have kicked the young man out of his residence like this.

On the other hand, Cia Yonggan was shocked as well when Xiao Meilin mentioned herself deliriously muttering the name Gao Mei Gui in her unconsciousness. Was there really such a thing, or was it just Xiao Meilin's essay alone?

Then inevitably his memory floated back to the girl. Is Gao Mei Gui in good health, or is it the other way around, Wei Chung's party or Wei Heng's loser son came to Gao Mei Gui to his residence? It's not impossible that that could happen. He was gang-raped by Hei Laohu's party members only proved that his movements had been monitored. It means that the current existence of Gao Mei Gui has been exposed! After he was knocked out like this, it would be easier for the opponent to bend Gao Mei Gui. But what will they do to the girl?

Thinking of this he then said to Xiao Meilin. "Cici, thank you for helping me. If there's no Cici, I can be sure I'm currently facing the king of the afterlife."

"Cia Yonggan, you don't talk too much, I don't think you're destined to die young. Even if it wasn't me, someone else would have found you, too," with his great wi-worship Xiao Meilin looked back at Cia Yonggan. Then the girl stood up straight and connected. "You better rest first, Cia Yonggan. Other things will be discussed later. The doctor you're dealing with is coming soon, you just wait."

Then Xiao Meilin twisted her body and walked towards the door of the room. But just as he was about to hold the doorknob, Cia Yonggan said.

"Cici, don't go yet. L'm.. L'm.. Uhuk..!! Uhuk..!!" Cia Yonggan tried to get up to sit up while talking, but instead made him cough and lose his balance.

Xiao Meilin instinctively ran back to the bed and caught the body of Cia Yonggan who seemed to be about to fall from the bed.

"You don't move much first. Didn't the nurse say, you have to rest a lot, okay?" Xiao Meilin said in panic as she clasped the young man's back with one hand and leaned over to Cia Yonggan's body to sit the young man down.

He was unaware that his current position with Cia Yonggan was so close. When viewed at a glance from the other side, it seems that these two people are hugging.

Cia Yonggan first realized, his position and the current Xiao Meilin was wrong, afraid that the girl would assume she was deliberately acting as if she was going to fall for a profit.

"Cici, it's not nice to see people." said Cia Yonggan.

Xiao Meilin was panicking. A red tinge was immediately visible on his cheek. He himself did not understand, only because of the reflex of seeing the young man almost fall down, so he did not think about other things, except to prevent the young man from falling from the bed.

So he hurriedly released his latch on Cia Yonggan's back, after which he immediately melototti the young man. "That's purely out of reflex, please don't think anything like that."

"Cici, that's not what I meant. Hayaaa.." Cia Yonggan was also wrong.

"That's it. What was that thing you wanted to say?" Xiao Meilin tried to suppress her embarrassment by diverting the conversation.

"Cici, I'm sorry, I want to leave here," Cia Yonggan said as he was heartbroken.

Xiao Meilin frowned in disbelief, with such a body condition, Cia Yonggan instead wanted to leave. "You don't joke. In this situation where to go? Somewhere out there is not safe, fearing that your enemies know that you are alive. And I'm telling you, this is the safest place, no one will dare to patronize my place."

"That's exactly it, Cici. I don't want to trouble you, and I don't want to drag you into my personal problems. I'm sorry" said Cia Yonggan. Then he continued. "A wise man once said, The safest place is the most dangerous. On the other hand, a place that would be considered dangerous is a safe place."

Cia Yonggan of course was reluctant to mention his heart's uneasiness for the safety of his girl, Gao Mei Gui.

For a moment Xiao Meilin thought. What the young man said was true. She herself was just a girl, certainly did not want to get into trouble with the underground society.

"Are you sure?" Xiao Meilin asked.

"Of course I'm sure, Cici," Cia Yonggan replied definitely.

"If that's what you want, I can't hold you here anymore. Whatever the risk, of course you already understand, right? Including your treatment will be delayed so that your recovery period becomes slower if you leave here," he deliberately emphasized the process of self-recovery Cia Yonggan so that the young man retracted his intentions.

But the thing he expected did not happen, instead the young man steadily replied. "I understand, Cici."

He could no longer delay going home and meeting his girlfriend, no matter what. The girl must have been anxiously awaiting her arrival. In addition, there was something else in him that kept urging him to return home immediately.

Xiao Meilin replied. "Then you just wait here, I'll have people pick you up and drive you home."

Cia Yonggan became uneasy as it had already troubled this girl a lot. "Cici, no need, I can walk on my own. Let me go home alone."

Xiao Meilin frowned and said in a disdainful tone. "With your condition like this? Haha.. Don't joke."

Then he moved outside the room and closed the door.

"Is he laughing at me? Ah, goddamn. Too underestimating," Cia Yonggan who was left in the room was only able to curse inwardly.

There's no problem. After all his legs are not injured, only sometimes his breathing is blocked if he speaks a bit loudly, although the pain sends signals to other organs that cause him difficulty moving.

Slowly he opened the door. And by holding onto the wall, he walked towards the stairs that had been visible since he came out of this room.

He had no idea he was on the third floor. And also did not realize near the stairs there is an elevator door that he should be able to use to get down. Instead, he walked down the steps of the stairs.

This is where he realized, this place is very large. The entire wall of this building was strong concrete and from here he could look down, to the main room of the ground floor it was truly luxurious.

"That's no ordinary girl. Of course he's a descendant of the rich," Cia Yonggan thought.

It took him at least nearly a quarter of an hour to get to the main door of the building. Along the way to here, no human was met, including the two nurses.

As soon as he exited the main door, there was suddenly a luxurious car stopped right in front of him. Two men came out from the left and right front door.

"Ah, you are here, sir. Miss Xiao ordered us to escort you. Come quickly up," said one of the men who opened the back door allowing Cia Yonggan to board.

Cia Yonggan no longer mince words. It is not good to reject the good intentions of people. There is a vehicle for him to return to his hometown in the far corner, of course, it will speed him up more.

"Thank you, sir," said Cia Yonggan as he entered and slowly shuffled in the backseat to position his seat.

The two men opened the front door and sat in the front seat. The man sitting beside the wheel poked his head back to talk to Cia Yonggan.

"Sorry, Sir. Ms. Xiao had not mentioned the address where we should take you, yet" the man said.

"My house is on the slopes of Mangdang Mountain, sir," Cia Yonggan replied.

"Huh? Mangdang Mountain?" he's astonished.

"True, sir, my residence is there" said Cia Yonggan.

"alright. Then we take you there. A Fei, let's walk," he said to the man behind the wheel.

These two men were actually rather curious, why was the young man's house so far away and why was he able to be in Miss Xiao's residence. But as subordinates, they did not dare to find out the ins and outs of the problem of the master.

A moment before the man called A Fei was running his car, his phone rang. He glanced at his phone screen and saw it was a call from Xiao Meilin.

Soon he answered the call. "Yes, Miss."

Silent.

"Say on the slopes of Mount Mangdang, Miss," replied the man.

Silent again.

"Good, Miss."

Then the call was interrupted.

"Miss Xiao wanted to come along," he told the fellow beside him.

Cia Yonggan only listened and did not know what to do. He also could not refuse if the employer of this place wanted to drive him too.

While waiting for Xiao Meilin to arrive, Cia Yonggan spread her gaze out the window of this car. Only then did he realize that this was a mansion, no wonder it felt so spacious. And the courtyard of this mansion is also spacious, at least two football player clubs can compete in the courtyard of this mansion. Decorating the flowers neatly arranged in the garden, further beautify this mansion when viewed from the front.

Before long, Xiao Meilin appeared from the main door of the mansion. The man beside the steering wheel had been on standby opening the door for him.

Cia Yonggan realized the girl was currently looking fresher, it seemed like she had just taken a shower and she was wearing a casual yet luxurious outfit. Her face was only polished with a bit of cosmetics, not menor at all, but instead made Xiao Meilin look more naturally beautiful.

"Cici, why are you coming too?" cia Yonggan asked as soon as the girl was already sitting next to him.

"I want to see the view from the slopes of Mount Mangdang there. He said the air was cooler than in my place, is it wrong? Tomorrow is a holiday. Let's go, sir," he replied as he ordered the driver to leave.

The car drove towards Mount Mangdang which, when viewed from here, was covered in black clouds, it seemed that around it would be hit by heavy rain.
