Chapter 177 You Came Alone
"Who did you mess with?" I asked him, puzzled.
He shrugged: "A mortal enemy. We've been fighting since our parents' generation. I've been bullied terribly by him."
I thought to myself, Bai Shen doesn't seem like someone who's easy to bully. Who would dare to bully him?
"Just help me stop them and buy me some more time," Bai Shen said.
"Okay, I'll try," I reluctantly agreed.
"Thank you." Bai Shen smiled at me, but the smile was extremely unpleasant to look at.
Bai Shen went out.
I told Xia Zhe to send someone to check: "Try to avoid conflict with them, and it would be best to find out their identity."
"Understood." Xia Zhe then left.
As I turned around, I saw a few words engraved on the wall above the bed.
Upon closer inspection, all I saw were the two characters "Xiao Shen".
It seems that He Ya really misses her child.
This time, the mother and son were finally reunited.
About five minutes passed.
I walked out of the hospital.
Bai Shen has already left with his mother.
Xia Zhe and Liang Hui led a group of people to stop the group.
I was just about to get on the bus when Xia Zhe called.
"Is everything taken care of?" I asked.
However, an unexpected voice came from the phone: "Shen Yan, it really is you."
"Huo Yubai?" I was stunned. "It's you?"
Huo Yubai remained silent.
"Where are you? I'm coming over right now!" I said, my brow furrowed.
What's Huo Yubai doing here?
Could it be that Bai Shen asked me to stop him?
They are not far from me.
I drove there.
After getting off the bus, they saw that Huo Yubai's men had completely taken Xia Zhe and his group under control.
I walked over and asked, "What exactly happened?"
"Did you help Huo Changzhou?" Huo Yubai looked at me expressionlessly.
This was the first time I had ever seen such an expression on his face.
"Who is Huo Changzhou?" I was confused.
I've never heard of it.
Huo Fei explained, "Huo Changzhou is Yu Bai's half-brother. He's the one Yu Bai has been targeting."
“I really don’t know him,” I explained.
"After Huo Changzhou was driven out of Xinjing City by Yu Bai, he changed his name to Bai Shen." Huo Fei looked at me with a deep gaze.
Is Bai Shen Huo Changzhou?
"I've never heard of Huo Changzhou before, and I didn't know Bai Shen was him." I still didn't understand: "Do you have a grudge against him?"
"Did Huo Changzhou take a woman with him?" Huo Yubai asked in a hoarse voice.
“Yes, it’s his mother,” I replied.
Huo Yubai suddenly let out a cold laugh.
I asked, puzzled, "What are you laughing at?"
“Shen Yan, that’s not his mother, that’s the birth mother I’ve been searching for.” Huo Yubai looked at me with disappointment.
I was stunned.
Is that Huo Yubai's mother?
“But she kept calling out Xiao Shen, I thought it was…” I was taken aback.
Bai Shen.
Huo Changzhou deliberately used this alias, thinking that even if He Ya called him Xiaobai or Xiaoshen, she could still match him without arousing suspicion.
"I'll help you get her out, but you have to release my men first." I was very anxious too.
Even if I wanted to explain, now wouldn't be the time.
"No need." Huo Yubai said coldly, "I have nothing to do with you, and you don't need to bother with my affairs."
He turned and got in the car.
I walked over and grabbed the car door: "Huo Yubai, I just want to say that I didn't know that was your mother. Huo Changzhou came to me saying that he wanted to treat her illness."
Huo Yubai said calmly, "I understand. Are you finished?"
He doesn't believe me.
Right.
My relationship with him is no longer what it used to be.
He's right not to believe me either.
Just like me, I will never forgive him.
I let go and took two steps back.
He gave me a deep look, his eyes filled with an undisguised coldness.
Huo Fei closed the car door, then got into the passenger seat and instructed the driver to start the car.
Xia Zhe and Liang Hui were both released.
"Professor Shen, I've investigated Bai Shen for so long, but I haven't found out that he is Huo Changzhou." Xia Zhe was also surprised.
"It's not your fault." I said, my feelings complicated. "You all need to find Huo Changzhou's whereabouts immediately. I'm afraid he'll go abroad. You must stop him!"
"Okay!" Xia Zhe quickly went to make the contact.
Liang Hui and I got into the car and chased after Huo Changzhou in the direction he had left.
But it was already daylight.
We haven't caught up with them yet.
Just as I was frowning in worry, my phone rang.
"Gu Yunwei, is there something you need?" I asked helplessly.
“I know Huo Changzhou is there, I’ll send you his location.” Gu Yunwei was quite agreeable.
I paused for a moment: "I thought you would make demands."
Gu Yun smiled and said, "My feelings for you are unconditional."
He hung up the phone.
But he didn't know that I don't like owing favors to others.
He has already repaid the favor I did for him by treating his illness.
He doesn't owe me anything.
I am uneasy.
"Liang Hui, wake up, we're going to this place." I opened the navigation.
Liang Hui woke up and rubbed his eyes: "Is there any news about them?"
"Gu Yun hasn't been found yet." I frowned. "Regardless of whether it's true or not, let's go check it out first."
"Okay." Liang Hui started the car.
After one hour.
We arrived at the dock.
This is a place where all sorts of people mingle.
He appears on camera from here.
"Shen Yan!" Gu Yun came to pick me up.
I walked over and asked, "Where is he?"
"We have to wait a bit," Gu Yunwei said in a low voice. "But I promise he will definitely show up tonight. Trust me this once."
I hesitated for a moment, then said, "Okay."
Gu Yunwei led me to a fishing boat.
He explained, "Your presence is too obvious. You should hide here for now. Huo Changzhou has many eyes and ears, so I need to send someone to make arrangements."
I grabbed Gu Yunwei: "How did you know all this?"
"I was one of the people who helped Huo Yubai drive away Huo Changzhou back then." Gu Yun did not explain: "Huo Changzhou is a very vengeful person. Huo Yubai has been looking for him all these years, probably because he wants to kill him directly to prevent him from harming people again."
"Why didn't I find anything when I investigated him before?" I asked, puzzled. "I've been in Xinjing City for so long and no one has mentioned it."
"It must be that Huo Yubai deleted all of Huo Changzhou's information. As for the others, they don't mention him at all. It's because many people have suffered at Huo Changzhou's hands, and who wants to talk about him?" Gu Yunwei said.
"I understand." I took a deep breath: "Huo Changzhou did it on purpose."
"Don't think about anything for now. I'll go out and take a look. Wait for me." Gu Yun did not go out.
Liang Hui whispered, "Can we trust him?"
"I don't know." I'm not sure either.
"Shall I go take a look?" Liang Hui asked.
I thought for a moment: "Let's go."
Liang Hui walked to the door, looked around, then put on his sunglasses and left.
I sat alone in the cabin waiting.
after awhile.
One of the boatmen on the ship came to bring me tea.
As he was leaving, he slipped a note into my hand.
I opened the note.
If you want to save people, come find me on this ship. Come alone.
The signature is Huo Changzhou.
