While they were talking, they just happened to walk to the car.
Sode got into the car first, his movements were quick and decisive, without even waiting for Bai Lan behind him.
This forced the woman to stumble forward, with the man supporting her from behind.
"Soder, what do you think?"
Bai Lan could see that after experiencing this incident, Sode seemed a little frightened.
Not only was he frightened by Gu Jiju, but he was also frightened by the fact that he was sent to prison and how others treated him.
At that time, Sode could no longer be as calm as Bai Lan.
Men’s thoughts are even simpler.
As long as I can go back, everything is fine.
"Of course I went back."
Sure enough, Thord's answer was as expected, still the same words.
"No matter what you say, I won't change my mind. I have to go back. It's safe there. Even if Gu Jiju wants to cause trouble for me, he won't come after me. You know, Gu Jiju has a wide network of contacts."
Bai Lan didn't say anything.
The man got into the car, and the moment the door closed, Bai Lan felt that her heart was also locked outside.
"But……"
However, Bai Lan was unwilling to give up.
I came to the country, but it seems like I got nothing.
Bai Lan has been entangled with Gu Jiju from the beginning, but now, what has he gained?
All you get is the ridicule of others.
It was Gu Jiju who sent her in personally.
It is the abuse and humiliation from others.
Bai Lan was unwilling and didn't want to leave like this.
"Do we still have room for negotiation?"
The car hasn't started yet.
Bai Lan in the back seat grabbed the seat back.
This made the man's heart tighten subconsciously, and he quickly looked towards Bai Lan.
"What's the room for negotiation?"
"I think I'll stay here for now."
After saying that, the man drove away almost without paying any attention.
So much so that Bai Lan's problem was also thrown to the back of his mind.
Sode beside him stared at Bai Lan with a helpless look in his eyes.
"Why do you have to stay? What if Gu Jiju finds you? Do you want to come in again? What's more, someone may rescue you this time, but it may not be the same next time."
Xu Zhixu did not always have the power.
Bai Lan knows this better than anyone else.
"I know, of course I know, but... I still want to meet Xu Zhixu and Gu Jiju."
"How about this, you go first and I'll follow. I'd like to thank Xu Zhixu first and discuss the plane tickets with him later. If time permits, I'll come find you right away."
The conversation between the two was so clear and concise.
There was even no eye contact after he finished speaking.
But Sode couldn't help but sneer, not knowing whether he was mocking himself or Bai Lan.
"why are you laughing?"
"nothing."
Thord waved his hand and leaned back on the sofa again.
Then the man continued, "I just think it's ridiculous that you scholars care about Gu Jiju. She doesn't even pay attention to you, so why are you so excited? Could it be that you still can't forget Gu Jiju?"
"Also, what is your relationship with Xu Zhixu?"
Bai Lan did not answer these two questions.
The woman stared into Thord's eyes for a long time without responding.
The man behind the wheel noticed that the atmosphere was a little off and quickly stepped out to smooth things over.
He even described the situation again, as well as the new plan, in a very clear manner.
"Forget it, stop arguing. Let's make it this way. I'll take Sode to his residence first, and then I'll leave for home in three days. I'll then take you to Mr. Xu. If you have anything to say, we can talk in person. What do you think?"
Without waiting for Sode's response, Bai Lan nodded like pounding garlic.
"Of course."
As he spoke, the smile on Bai Lan's face became more and more obvious.
Soder beside him was self-evident.
"Okay, okay, go find Gu Jiju and Xu Zhixu. I'm not worthy of them after all. It doesn't matter. Xu Zhixu and Gu Jiju are the best."
There was silence in the car.
Bai Lan didn't realize that Sode would actually be jealous!
"Okay, I'll take Thord there first. As for you..."
"I can find Xu Zhixu myself."
The woman couldn't wait and even wanted to go to Xu Zhixu's villa to see what was going on.
This journey was extremely difficult for Bai Lan.
It even reached the point of being helpless.
And Sood was soon sent home.
As for Bai Lan, she followed the man all the way to the Xu family villa.
He saw Xu Zhixu sitting on the sofa, looking at him silently.
A pair of phoenix eyes seemed to be able to see through Bai Lan.
At that time, the woman gradually approached, getting closer to the other person little by little.
"Xu Zhixu."
These three short words attracted Xu Zhixu's attention.
The man continued to look at the other person, and the corners of his mouth, which had originally been flat, immediately curved up.
"Why are you here?"
When Xu Zhixu saw Bai Lan for the first time, his surprise turned into astonishment.
But what follows is helplessness and accusations.
"Didn't I send someone to pick you up? Didn't I tell you to arrange accommodation for you and ask you to be patient for a few days? Do you think the conditions are not good enough?"
Bai Lan shook his head and said nothing.
Xu Zhixu kept guessing one by one, which made Bai Lan feel helpless.
"It's like this. I originally wanted to book a five-star room for you, but Gu Jiju has so many connections and informants that you'll be discovered no matter where you are. So we can only put up with it for a few days. When the time comes, I'll let you go back."
"What about you here?"
Bai Lan sat next to Xu Zhixu and made a few jokes with a playful smile.
