It’s been a long time since I slept with Xiaoman. Holding my little girl in my arms, I felt like the whole world was quiet.
My little girl seemed to know that I was back. She lay obediently in my arms and pressed one leg on my stomach as before.
Her neck is also sleeping on my wrist. She has been doing this since she was a child, and she feels like she can sleep peacefully in this way.
I don’t know if it’s because of the jet lag, but I don’t feel sleepy. It’s already half past one in London time, and it should be getting dark at this time in China.
I have been thinking a lot about whether Sean will tell me the truth and what he will do to me after I meet him tomorrow.
Min Nolan is right, this is London, and he has plenty of ways to mess with me.
Suddenly, my cell phone rang.
The sudden ringtone made Xiaoman tremble in my arms. I quickly grabbed my phone and pressed silent.
Then I gently comforted Xiaoman until she fell asleep again, then I looked at the call information.
It was Mr. Wen who called me. I don't know why he called me so late.
I got out of bed quietly, went outside to the balcony, and called Mr. Wen back.
"Hey, Mr. Wen, it's so late, what's wrong?"
"Isn't it just dark? It's too late."
I was stunned for a moment before I came to my senses and replied with a smile: "I'm confused. I'm abroad now and it's already early morning here."
"Ah, then I won't disturb your rest?"
"It's okay, I haven't slept yet."
"Why did you go abroad?" Mr. Wen asked again.
Naturally, I didn't tell him what he was going to do. He always wanted to introduce An Siqi to me, and I agreed to help An Siqi deceive Mr. Wen.
I had no choice but to say that I came here to do some research. Mr. Wen didn't ask any more questions. He turned to me and said, "I'm calling you to tell you that we are going to arrest Qin Guoxing tomorrow. Since you are abroad, just wait for the result."
I'll call you when I get out."
"Okay, it shouldn't be a big problem, right?"
"There shouldn't be any problems. The evidence is sufficient and we can arrest the person directly."
"Has Liao Qiang's body been exhumed?"
"Go dig it tomorrow morning."
"Okay, then I'll tell his wife and ask him to come over."
After Mr. Wen responded twice, we ended the call.
Instead, I sent a message to He Ya, telling her to come back tomorrow and we would start exhuming Liao Qiang's body in the morning.
It's a pity that I couldn't watch Qin Guoxing's arrest there.
It should be quite sensational, after all, he is an old cancer that has been there for so many years, and there are people above and below him.
This big tiger is finally going to be beaten. It's quite exciting to think about it. I really want to see his expression when he is arrested.
Are you looking calm, or are you panicking?
But for him, this life was worth it. He had enjoyed so much glory, experienced so many stories, and even had several wives. It was really worth it.
I didn't think about him anymore, because the most important thing to me now was An Lan's side of things.
I should consider preparing to see Sean tomorrow. He is much more difficult to deal with than Qin Guoxing.
After smoking a cigarette on the balcony, I went back to bed. After lying down, I thought about some random things before finally falling asleep.
Early the next morning, I was woken up by Xiaoman. This little guy kept shaking me next to me: "Dad, daddy, get up! The sun is shining on your butt, so get up quickly..."
I was in a daze, and she lay on top of me, sometimes playing with my hair, sometimes pulling my nose.
After waking me up, she lay down next to me, supported her chin with her palms, and looked at me with a smile on her face.
This makes me lose my temper at all. I love my little girl so much.
I picked up my phone and looked at it. It was only seven o'clock in the morning. I didn't go to bed until around two o'clock last night, so I only slept for a few hours.
It was a good thing that we were jet lagged. After putting on our clothes, Xiaoman and I went downstairs.
Min Nolan has already made breakfast. Although this is in London, Min Nolan still makes Chinese food. The breakfast is porridge and sandwiches, which is a combination of Chinese and Western.
While eating, Min Nolan asked me again: "Have you really decided to go find Sean?"
"I have no choice but to go find him, and it's time for me to go and meet him."
"Okay, anyway, be careful and call me if you have any questions."
Min Nolan said, then turned to Anthony and said, "Anthony, you happen to have nothing to do these two days, so just follow Chen Feng. He is not familiar with this place either."
"Okay." Anthony nodded without hesitation.
Min Nolan said to me again: "Chen Feng, Anthony has always wanted to go to school in China. If you have nothing to do, please communicate with him in Chinese."
"Well, he actually said it quite well."
Xiao Man also said at this time: "I also want to follow dad."
Min Nolan glanced at her and said, "Aren't you going to school?"
"I want to follow dad."
"If you don't go to school, aren't you afraid that I will call your mother?"
Xiaoman glanced at him, looking like he was about to cry, and said aggrievedly: "I will follow daddy."
I reached out and touched her little head, and said with a smile: "Xiaoman, you go to school first, and dad will play with you when you come back from school... And dad is here to take you and mom back to our home, so you
Be obedient, or dad won't take you back."
Xiaoman was still very sensible. After hearing what I said, she finally nodded.
After breakfast, Anthony and I went out first.
I opened the address on my phone that Min Nolan sent me yesterday, and then told Anthony the address.
When Anthony saw the address, he was surprised and said, "This is a manor, I know it."
It's not unusual for a person of Sean's status to live in a manor.
What makes me wonder is that An Lan's status is higher than Sean's, but why is her residence so simple?
Anthony told me that this place is a bit far and it takes more than forty minutes to drive.
It takes more than 40 minutes to drive, which is not far at all in China.
I told Anthony that most people in China need to drive forty to fifty minutes to go to work, and some even need an hour or two.
Anthony found it incredible after hearing this and asked why he was looking for a job so far away.
I couldn't solve this problem with him. I could only tell him that he would find out when he goes to China. This is very common.
We chatted all the way, and soon we arrived at Sean's residence. It was indeed a manor, and it looked as spectacular as a castle from the outside.
The gates are at least ten meters long and made of marble, like a city tower.
There are also two huge white-painted iron doors, and two small arched doors on both sides of the door, which look very spectacular.
Looking in from the main entrance, there is a road paved with marble, grass on both sides, and a huge fountain at the end, which is very majestic.
This is the real manor. Compared with the manor of Qin Guoxing, it really pales in comparison.
We couldn't go in, so we had to wait outside. Sean could see me as soon as he came out.
