Chapter 187 Just One Step Away
Bian Xi noticed her blank expression, as if she were lost in thought, and guessed that she was also wondering about something, so he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
He never expected Momo to suddenly appear here, and coincidentally, he witnessed what had just happened.
Although he had tacitly approved of Pan Wen's behavior, he still did not approve of it in his heart, after all, those girls were really too young.
Some of them could still be considered children, not women at all.
However, Wenlai openly supported these things when he was alive, saying that as long as they could do their jobs well, everything else was negotiable.
Even if he voiced his opposition now, he would only leave a false image of being a hypocrite in the minds of his subordinates.
Even if they agree to it to my face, they will still do what they want in private.
So, let them be, since they can't stop it.
With the factory bombed, his promise to Pan Wen was essentially ruined. Fortunately, Wen Lai's base was worth some money, and after getting rid of Fu Yungui, he could just give it all to him.
Anyway, these are not the things he is pursuing.
All he needs to do is get rid of Fu Yungui and then take Momo back with him.
Therefore, he certainly couldn't let himself leave such a bad impression on Momo because of this incident.
Once trust is broken, it is very difficult to rebuild.
That naive little girl is also very simple-minded. Once she believes what's happening now, there's no way to salvage the situation later.
It will always leave an unresolved knot in her heart.
This will also become a barrier between them.
He won't let that happen.
Thinking this, Bian Xi couldn't help but speak again.
"Momo, don't overthink it. Sometimes what you see isn't necessarily the truth."
"Didn't you always believe in me?"
"Trust me this time, I won't let you down."
Bian Xi spoke sincerely, and couldn't help but touch her hair. Her originally silky hair was now completely covered in mud, as stiff as strands of wire.
It's clear how difficult her journey has been.
He had no idea how she escaped from Fu Yungui's men.
Momo stared at him blankly, and although she still didn't completely believe him, she nodded nonetheless.
All she wanted to do now was go home, and seeing Bian Xi gave her the greatest hope of returning home.
Bian Xi smiled with relief when she saw her nod, then waved to Pan Wen behind her.
Although Pan Wen was extremely unwilling, he still obeyed the order and invited the girls away again.
Immediately, the three cars sped away from the scene.
Upon arriving at the base, Bian Xi did not linger. He had originally planned to leave directly, as he was unsure whether Fu Yungui would make a comeback. Seeing Momo only solidified his belief in this.
If we stay here, given Fu Yungui's abilities, he'll definitely find Momo's whereabouts very quickly. If he catches up with us then, we won't be able to leave even if we want to.
However, the moment Bian Xi saw Momo appear, he suddenly understood why Fu Yungui and his men had already attacked the doorway, and were just one step away from taking his life.
But they retreated without hesitation, as if they didn't want to waste a single second.
Now it seems that it's related to Momo.
He must have received news that Momo had run away.
It seems that Fu Yungui has already lost his heart to Momo.
People with weaknesses are always easier to deal with.
Thinking this, Bian Xi couldn't help but sneer.
It's almost laughable that such a ruthless man would soften his heart for a woman.
He left Pan Wen to guard the base temporarily, waiting for news from him, and then took Momo and left Myanmar directly.
Exhausted and suddenly relaxed, Momo started to doze off shortly after getting on the bus. After a while, the girl couldn't stay awake any longer and fell asleep against the window.
When she woke up, the car had already crossed the border of Myanmar and entered the Golden Triangle region.
This location is in Luang Namtha, Laos, bordering Myanmar to the northwest and Yunnan Province of China to the northeast. Luang Namtha Province is densely forested, with scarce arable land, a backward economy, and very inconvenient transportation.
"Where is this?" Momo stood up and stared blankly out the window.
The scenery outside looked both strange and familiar. The car sped through the dense forest, looking no different from Myanmar.
However, this place is a little different from Myanmar. The Namtha River flows around the city, irrigating the fields on both sides.
Upon hearing the voice, Bian Xi immediately opened his eyes and patiently explained, "This is Boten in Laos."
Moting is one of the areas of Langnanta, bordering the Mohan Port in Yunnan.
Wenlai also has a small base here, which is a transit point specifically used for transporting drugs.
Drugs smuggled into China are transported here in advance and stored, and then smuggled out after everything is in place.
"Moting?" Momo murmured.
There are so many places she hasn't heard of, and even if she found out, it wouldn't make a difference, since that's not what she cares about.
She only asked one question, "Is this place far from China?" Now she just wants to get back as soon as possible.
Bian Xi knew she would ask that question, and said gently, "It's right on the Chinese border."
Upon hearing this, Momo felt a surge of hope. She was so excited that her voice trembled as she spoke. She was just one step away from returning to her parents' side.
She's finally going to get away from here.
After returning home, she immediately took her parents and left to live somewhere no one could find them.
This was something she had planned long ago.
"Then can we go there today?"
After she finished speaking, she suddenly remembered that she didn't have her passport or other documents with her, and wondered if this would cause her trouble.
But then I thought, even if I have to cross the border secretly, I still have to go. As long as I can get through, I'll definitely find a way to solve these problems later.
Even if they get caught by the police, it doesn't matter, there will always be something to prove their identities.
Thinking this, Momo looked at him with even more hope and expectation.
Bian Xi could see her urgency, but he wouldn't go back so easily.
Even if we go back, we won't have a good life if we don't get rid of Fu Yungui.
Moreover, he now truly hates him to the core; only by killing him can the hatred in his heart be appeased.
Now that he has such a good opportunity, how could he possibly let it go so easily?
"I'm afraid I can't go back today, maybe tomorrow," Bian Xi said gently to her.
After saying that, he pointed to himself, then looked at her and joked with a smile, "With us like this, do you think it'll be scary when we get back?"
"They probably fainted from fright after seeing it, right?"
