"Where are you eating now? Did Bai Junbai agree to let you stay for dinner? No way! You take Taozi and leave there right now. You have one hour to bring Taozi here." Lin Xiazhu was furious. How could Taozi be hanging out with those people? What if she gets corrupted?
"Big sister, it's more than an hour from here to the city center, and it will take at least two hours to get to the Bai family's old house. I don't have wings, how can I fly back?" Lin Xiaoxue took her phone and went outside to answer the call.
“Fly, yes, that works too. Your brother-in-law just got a helicopter a few days ago. I’ll have him send someone to pick you up. Just tell me your exact location.” Lin Xiazhu was thinking about smartphones a few years from now, where you could share location information. WeChat wasn’t even out yet.
"Isn't it a bit much to make such a fuss?" Lin Xiaoxue didn't think being picked up by a helicopter in the middle of the night was cool; she thought it was quite embarrassing.
Tonight's party is full of rich kids, every single one of them owns a cruise ship or a helicopter. What haven't they seen?
The eldest sister suddenly sent a helicopter to take them away; this behavior seemed like that of someone who had suddenly become rich.
"You can't control what happens to you, but I have to take care of Taozi. Let her answer the phone, and if she's hungry, she should eat quickly. The helicopter is coming soon. Oh, and don't drink any random beverages. Be careful, they might have something in them." Lin Xiazhu gave her a thousand and one instructions, worried that Lin Taozi might be contaminated.
"There's no need to let Taozi answer the phone, she's eating right now. I'll talk to Uncle Bai and ask him if he wants to come along." Lin Xiaoxue immediately hung up the phone. Her eldest sister had become increasingly assertive since marrying into the Bai family, and she would flaunt her wealth at the slightest provocation.
This time they sent helicopters, next time will they send private jets, or luxury cruise ships?
Lin Xiaoxue felt a pang of jealousy and couldn't help but mutter various complaints to herself. She turned to go back to the living room, but after taking a few steps, someone blocked her way. She looked up and her eyes widened immediately. She knew her intuition was right; this guy had indeed set his sights on her.
"Mr. Eisen, what can I do for you?" Lin Xiaoxue didn't have time to beat around the bush and asked directly.
Eisen gave her a deep look, then immediately looked away, saying casually, "I just happened to be passing by; I didn't come to see you."
Lin Xiaoxue was furious. "You're just pretending. Let's see how long you can keep it up, hmph!"
"I guess I misunderstood. Please let me through, I need to get past you." Lin Xiaoxue tried to squeeze past him with a sour face. It was a narrow path with a fence on the side. Eisen, being such a big guy, was blocking the way and deliberately wouldn't move. Lin Xiaoxue tried several times but couldn't get past him.
"Fine, you're something else. I'll take this road, I'll go around. I'm scared of you." Lin Xiaoxue realized that Aisen was deliberately teasing her. She suddenly retreated several feet away, shouted a few words, and then turned and ran off on another road.
Eisen's icy expression softened slightly, and an imperceptible smile appeared in his deep reddish-brown eyes. "Lin Xiaoxue, right? Her personality is quite interesting."
Perhaps we could capture her and play with her for a few days, but she seems to have some connection with the Bai family. If we were to take action against her, it would inevitably alarm the Bai family. We should try our best not to offend them, as it's not worth it for a woman.
Thinking this, Eisen snapped his fingers, and soon two tall, burly foreigners emerged from the shadows. "Young Master, what are your orders?"
“Go investigate that woman named Lin Xiaoxue. I want to know what her background is.” Eisen’s lips curled into an ambiguous smile.
When Bai Junbai learned that Lin Xiazhu had sent a helicopter to pick someone up, his forehead twitched violently, and his handsome face darkened. He immediately lost his appetite, put down his utensils, and sat there with an unpleasant expression.
On the contrary, Lin Taozi was very happy. "Really? That's great! I knew my eldest sister loved me the most. My feet were killing me. Now I don't have to walk when I get back, and I can even take a helicopter. I'm going to float away!"
"Uncle Bai, you seem unhappy. It's alright, you can come with us. We'll send someone to drive the car back tomorrow, let's go back together." Lin Taozi smiled, her eyes crinkling, while she continued eating.
Twenty minutes later, everyone inside heard a loud rumbling sound outside. They were stunned for a moment, but quickly realized what was going on. After all, they were no strangers to the sound of helicopters. However, who would come to a party in a helicopter so late at night? It was quite a show of bravado.
Everyone got up with great interest and went out to see what was going on. They saw the helicopter hovering over the castle for a long time. There were too many trees around, so it was obviously difficult to find a place to land. They could only slowly lower the altitude and then lower the rope ladder.
After the rope ladder was lowered, no one came down; it seemed as if they were waiting for someone to go up.
Everyone: "?" What's going on? Who put on this show? It's not cool at all.
Lin Taozi watched for a long time before finally seeing the helicopter come to a stop. However, the rope ladder was still quite far from the ground, and it wouldn't be easy for her to climb up. Sigh, it was really frustrating.
"This place is difficult to navigate. Third Sister, Uncle Bai, let's go to the rooftop. It'll be easier to climb up there." Lin Taozi had never eaten pig's trotters, but she had seen pigs run. She often saw scenes in TV dramas of gang leaders climbing rope ladders on rooftops and escaping by helicopter.
They're not running away now, they just want to leave, but they can go to the rooftop.
Lin Xiaoxue covered her face and let Lin Taozi pull her away. Bai Junbai didn't want to embarrass himself with them, but Lin Taozi insisted, "Uncle Bai, hurry up and go home. It's late, you should go home and rest. Go home quickly."
For some inexplicable reason, Bai Junbai, despite his reluctance, ended up going with them.
"Hey, Junbo, you're just leaving like that? The party's only just started!" someone shouted from below, realizing what was happening.
The only response was the roar of a helicopter taking off.
Bai Junbo and his group got off the plane some distance from the old house. The driver explained that he was afraid of disturbing the young master, so he could only ask them to walk a bit, or he could send a car to pick them up.
It would take ten to twenty minutes to walk back to the Bai family's old house from where the plane was parked, and nobody wanted to walk that late at night, so they called the Bai family's driver to come and pick them up.
"Uncle Bai, here's your coat. I'm not cold anymore." Lin Taozi smiled sweetly and returned the suit jacket to Bai Junbai in a good mood. She had completely forgotten about the unpleasantness from before after boarding the helicopter.
Lin Taozi was very excited about her first experience riding in a helicopter. She thought it was really cool. No wonder the bosses on TV liked to escape by helicopter. It was really fast and stylish.
"You're laughing like an idiot. What's there to be happy about? It's embarrassing." Lin Xiaoxue curled her lips in disgust.
"I'm happy, it's none of your business," Lin Taozi glared at her. She was increasingly resentful of her third sister, who only knew how to bully her. "I'll tell my eldest sister that you're bullying me."
"Hey, when did I bully you? Explain yourself." Lin Xiaoxue was still quite timid, chasing after Lin Tao to stop her from telling on him.
Then, because they were playing around, they missed the car that was supposed to pick them up. That awful Bai Junbai got in the car and drove off without even saying goodbye.
They watched helplessly as the car sped past them, unable to stop it.
