Can't Let Go novel Chapter 41

  One hour later, the pouring rain gradually became drizzle.

  “Maybe we are lucky enough. Maybe that wasn't a poisonous snake.” Linda Yun sat on the stone and muttered in a low voice.

  She remembered how her hand swelled soon after being bitten when she was young, followed by painful feelings

  But it was almost an hour, they remained fine.

  This was enough to prove that was not a poisonous snake.

  Standing up, he felt somehow more comfortable. Unfolding his arms, he stretched himself.

  “It’s only drizzling now. Let's go to the bank, they should come and pick you up soon.” Linda Yun didn't turn around, as if she were talking to herself.

  Michael Huo stood up and walked outside.

  Ocean City was located in the tropical area all year around. The rain came and passed very fast.

  The originally dark sky gradually clashed, revealing a cut.

  Soon, the azure color expanded from above.

  The two walked over the beach along the original path one after the other.

  This time, Michael Huo was still walking in front, watching everything in the surroundings.

  Maybe it was because the heavy rain had just passed. Although the road was damp, they hadn't encountered snakes and worms and things like that.

  Soon, they reached the beach.

  “Quite a view.”

  All the dark clouds were dispersed, white clouds pressed down really low, and the entire ocean was in deep blue.

  Michael Huo knitted his eyebrows tighter and tighter, seeing her amazement and shock.

  “Haven't you been to the seaside?”?

  Linda Yun was struck dumb. She turned around and looked at him.

  Then, she giggled. Her curved eyebrows looked like she was wearing a dazzling smile, but in fact, she still showed a sign of loneliness, “do you know that in the world, not everybody is lucky enough to have the chance to come to the beach.”

  With it, she looked at the sea, where mist gradually arose.

  Her mom was not that lucky, was she?

  “If she is sick and needs money, why not turn to your dad?”

  Linda Yun's expression became rigid at once.

  She looked at him in surprise, and Michael Huo also looked back at her.

  His eyes were in deep color, as deep as a spring, making it impossible for people to know what was hidden in it.

  “Hah.” She burst into laughter again. There was penetrating coolness in her eyes, “Brother-in-law, you are in such a good mood, why bother minding my business?”

  “It’s only 30000 dollars, for him, it is nothing. You are his daughter. There isn't any reason for him to turn his back on you, is there?”

  Linda Yun looked at him with knitted brows, and suddenly, there was a curve at the corner of her lips, indifferent and desolate.

  “What if they are just turning their backs on me? What if they just hate us? If I say, we are in such a position today because of them, will you believe me?” She stared at him, still wearing a smile at the corner of her mouth.

  Michael Huo lowered his eyes a little bit, and his handsome face became somehow downcast, “did he really do that? Why?”

  Linda Yun lifted her eyebrows, and was a little surprised.

  What kind of question was this?

  Shouldn't he say, how is it possible?

  Or, Was that your father? things like that

  What did that mean?

  Could it be that he trusted her words a little?

  “Why don't you answer me?” Michael Huo inquired again seeing her stupefied.

  Linda Yun lowered her eyes, and then looked at him. Suddenly, she smiled. Her smiling eyes were like the light of water in the bright sun, sparkling and shining. “Brother-in-law, your question will make me think maybe you've got feelings for me or else, why would you care about me like this!”

  A cool smile swept across the long and narrow eyes of Michael Huo. He said, “You’re overthinking.”

  Linda Yun curved her lips and smiled, looking at the sea

  Michael Huo didn't probe any longer. But the moment he turned his head around and stared at her, he saw the dimmed sadness in her eyes that was difficult to hide

  “So beautiful. I really envy these fish, if only I could be as free as them.” Linda Yun's body staggered, and presently, she dipped her head into the ocean directly.

  Michael Huo was struck dumb. He hastened to bend over and lifted her up.

  It felt like a man 1.9 m tall lifting up a small chicken.

  “Are you crazy?” The man's handsome face was fuming.

  Linda Yun grinned. Her crystalclear big eyes looked extremely limpid under the blue ocean, “It’s salty.”

  Inexplicably, such eyes and smiles ceased the raging fire of the man instantly.

  Suddenly, there came loud tumbling sounds from overhead.

  The two raised their heads and saw a chopper flying towards them.

  Linda Yun stood firm, wrung her own hem, put her hair behind her ears, and said faintly: “My elder sister is so concerned with you, she comes to pick you up so soon.”

  Michael Huo remained silent, and his face was as cold as ever.

  Soon, the chopper gradually landed, and then, down came two persons quickly.

  “Tingchen.” A crying voice came from afar immediately.

  The next second, the figure was seen running over quickly, bumping into the arms of the man.

  “God, I am so scared. Oh.” Mary Yun's cries were quite sad. She was really terrified.

  “Linda Yun.” Richard Qu hastened to come over as well, “Are you all right?”

  Linda Yun shrugged her shoulders, “ Do I look like something is wrong with me?”

  Richard Qu heaved a relieving sigh hastily, “Good! You guys are scaring us to death!”

  “Let's go home, let's go home. I don't want a holiday any longer.” Mary Yun wailed and stomped her feet. She took a glance of Linda Yun immediately.

  “Sister...” Linda Yun wore a faint smile.

  Mary Yun hastened to stand up straight and looked at her. The first thing she checked was whether her wearing were still intact.

  It was until she saw her intact clothes and no traces left on the exposed skin that she gradually felt relaxed.

  It seemed that they had not had sex.

  “Nian, you are terrifying me!” She hastened to come over and grabbed her hand, “do you know how worried I'm about you?”

  Seeing her vivid performance, Linda Yun really wanted to click a like button for her.

  “Enough, let’s talk after we go back.” Richard Qu hastened to add.

  Therefore, the four didn't stay over here.

  When they returned, all of their friends came to greet them.

  Everybody was concerned. Of course, their concern was only reserved for Michael Huo.

  The doctor of the hotel hastened to come and helped him check the cut. He found that it was just an ordinary snakebite. The snake was not poisonous.

  On seeing this, Linda Yun left along secretly.

  She was exhausted and planned to take a bath and have a rest back in her room.

  Unexpectedly, before she reached her room, she received an emergency call.

  “OK, don't worry. Ill hurry off and get to the airport. Right, Ill take the fastest flight back. OK, no problem!” After hanging up, Linda Yun was in panic.

  What was the matter? Why would anything go wrong with Kui?

  Linda Yun ran to the room, grabbed her backpack and rushed outside.

  In the lobby-

  “Mary, that is an accident. Let's just stay in the resort hotel. The facilities here are so excellent, why not stay here for a few more days?” Fang Man hastened to persuade.

  “Yeah, it is so beautiful here, but we haven't taken any photos yet. I've brought a lot of bikinis.”

  “Right, Mary. President Huo rarely has time to be with you. After going back, President Huo will keep his feet off the ground.”

  Everybody persuaded Mary Yun at the same time.

  Mary Yun sat next to the man, feeling so wronged. She didn't want to be on holiday any longer, for she couldn't stand Linda Yun's presence here at all.

  As soon as she saw Linda Yun, she felt on tenterhooks.

  She always believed that her replacement during the first night of having sex would soon be exposed.

  This feeling made her tremble with fear.

  “Nian, where are you going?” All of a sudden, there came the voice of Richard Qu in the lobby.

  There was a lot of food in his hand. He was about to send it to her room, but on seeing her rushing outside, he called out.

  On hearing it, everybody looked outside the window.

  At the doorway. Linda Yun rushed outside carrying a bag on her back.

  “Richard Qu?” On hearing it, Linda Yun turned around her head and looked at Richard Qu.

  Richard Qu hastened to throw the food in hand to the waiter next to him and ran over.

  “Where are you going with your bag?”

  “I'm going back to Austral City.”

  “Going back to Austral City? Now?” Richard Qu was a little confused.

  Right, I'll go to the airport right now. Linda Yun said while walking outside. Something came to her suddenly, so she stopped short and looked at him, “By the way, thanks, I'll treat you to meals someday.”

  “Hey, wait!” Richard Qu grasped her hand, “why are you in such a hurry to go back? Is there anything wrong?”

  “It's my friend, no big deal. Well, you guys have fun, but I'll leave first.” She had intended to tell him all about it, but on seeing those people following Richard Qu, she suddenly didn't want to say anything.

  With it, before Richard Qu could say anything, she ran straight towards the gateway.

  “Presently, she was seen getting in a cab, and soon, the car disappeared.”

  “Master Qu, where is your girlfriend going?” Fang Man came over.

  “She is going back to Austral City.” Richard Qu answered, a little depressed.

  “Oh? Going back to Austral City?” Fang Man lifted up her eyebrows. It went without saying, she was glad. Then, she turned around and raised her eyebrows to Mary Yun.

  Although Mary Yun didn't understand why she was going back all of a sudden,

  This is good news for her.

  She felt so relieved.

  Michael Huo reached his hand out and waved it.

  The manager came over rapidly, “President Huo, what to do next?”

  “Arrange for a car, we are going to the airport.”

  The manager was stunned, “now?”

  Everybody was struck dumb.

  “Any problem?” Michael Huo glanced at the manager who was in a daze.

  “No no, I’ll set about arranging for it!” The manager was so scared that he trembled. He hurried off and started to make arrangements.

  Mary Yuns eyebrows were twisted at once. She felt a little uneasy at the bottom of her heart, and dragged his hem lightly, “Tingchen, are we going back to Austral City now?”

  “Wasn't it you who wanted to go back to Austral City just now? Then well head back, ok?” Michael Huo turned aside and looked at Mary Yun with a meaningful smile.

  Although he was inquirying in a coddling way, Mary Yun found it impossible to defy.

  The smile at the corner of Mary Yun's mouth was a little rigid, “Well, ok.”

  “Cousin, are you leaving now? But we haven't done checking here yet!” Richard Qu hastened to say.

  In fact, he also wanted to leave. But the acceptance hadn't started yet.

  “I'll leave everything to you.” Michael Huo said while looking at others, “Have fun, everybody!”

  With it, he got straight into his limousine.

  The manager was quite able, and he asked the waiter to carry the luggage of Mary Yun here directly.

Mary Yun bit her lips. Although she didn't want to leave, she dare not disobey Richard Qu, so she had to get in the car obediently.

  In the car, Mary Yun found that the man remained quiet, and the atmosphere was so inexplicably embarrassing.

  She dare not look at his eyes, so she sat in a corner obediently, with her hands folded together uneasily.

  What was wrong? The cold feelings made her so uncomfortable!

  The man took out his cellphone and edited an instant message, [Check the male model in the obscene video, and find out who the leading actress was in it. Look into Linda Yun's files again.]

  Joe Guo was dazed for a while when he received the short message.

  Presently, he was dripping with cold sweat.

  Check again?

  Was there anything wrong with the files last time?

  He didn't dare to neglect his order and replied immediately [Yes!]

  On reading this message, the man turned off his cell phone.
