Chapter 576: Falling into the Beauty Trap
As the night deepens, the room temperature continues to rise.
They rolled from the table to the bed.
Xiao Beisheng clasped her hand, intertwining their fingers. Before he kissed her again, Su Man said to him, "Beisheng, promise me that you will protect yourself. When everything is over, we will go back together and see Doudou. You haven't hugged Doudou properly as a father yet."
Xiao Beisheng paused and nodded solemnly: "I promise you."
After getting his promise, Suman completely relaxed her body.
She fell into wonderful dreams in the layers of heat waves.
This time, she slept extremely soundly.
When she opened her eyes, she felt weak all over.
At first, she thought it was because she was too immoderate last night, but then she realized that this tiredness was different from physical fatigue, but a kind of fatigue that came from deep within her muscles and bones.
It's like a kind of fatigue caused by chemical means.
Su Man climbed out of bed, her body swaying as if she were on a boat.
She shook her dizzy head.
Why am I so dizzy?
Then she realized that she was not dizzy, but——
She was actually on a boat!
This ship is sailing on the rolling waves!
The bedroom environment has changed. It is no longer the bedroom where Su Man lives in Bailan Mansion.
But it was a completely unfamiliar cruise ship cabin.
"Daughter, you're awake!"
Su Changhai heard the voice before he saw the person. After a few footsteps passed through the front corridor, Su Changhai appeared in the cabin bedroom.
"What's going on? Why am I here?" Su Man was terrified and confused.
Wasn’t she with Xiao Beisheng last night?
Why did I find myself sailing on a boat with Su Changhai when I woke up?
She looked out the small round window of the cabin. Outside was a vast expanse of white sea water, with the sky and the sea connected in a line, with no end in sight.
"Where are we going now?" she asked again.
Su Changhai comforted her, "I know you have a lot of problems right now, but lunch is ready. Why don't you get up first? We can eat and talk at the same time, okay? That brat Xiao Beisheng gave you a scent. You need to eat and drink something to get rid of the drug."
"What do you mean?" Su Man looked at him in shock.
Su Changhai scratched his head, feeling a little guilty.
"Well, let me tell you straight, we're on our way back to Haicheng now, taking the water route. The information on the water route is delayed, so we can't let Jiang Ningyue's people find out our whereabouts too quickly. I didn't bring many people with me this time, so if there's a conflict, we won't be in a good position."
"But...how did you get me out here?"
"I'll be responsible for making trouble at the gate of the Bai Mansion, and Xiao Beisheng will be responsible for bringing you out."
Su Man jumped up, "So you guys worked together inside and outside to deceive me?!"
"What do you mean by 'lie to you'? It's so harsh to say that." Su Changhai touched his nose. "It was Xiao Beisheng who lied to you, not me. I'm just a father who is worried about his daughter's safety and works hard for her."
Su Man understood that Xiao Beisheng's visit to her last night was premeditated and planned.
When he failed to persuade Suman, he resorted to a delaying tactic.
"Damn it, you actually used your beauty to trap me." Su Man gritted her teeth angrily.
Su Changhai had sharp ears and heard Su Man's words clearly.
He immediately raised his voice excitedly: "Beauty trap?! What beauty trap? Who used a beauty trap on you? Was it Xiao Beisheng? That brat took advantage of you?!"
He rolled up his sleeves, his ears almost smoking with anger.
"You little brat, I knew he wouldn't let you go so easily. I didn't expect him to even try to take advantage of my daughter. If I catch him, I'll break his legs..."
"I want to go back."
Su Man's words interrupted Su Changhai's anger. "No, why are you going back to get involved in that mess? Let's go back to Haicheng and live our own lives. You don't have to worry about that kid Xiao Beisheng. He has helpers behind him. They have set a tight net for the people in the Golden Triangle. There won't be any accidents. At worst, both sides will suffer losses."
He didn't mention Bai Lan by name, but Su Man knew he was referring to Bai Lan.
It seems that Su Changhai has a lot of resentment towards Bai Lan in his heart.
He would be happy if Bai Lan was arrested.
He didn't seem to care about Bai Lan's safety at all.
She shook her head. "No, Xiao Beisheng will definitely be in danger. The Black Hawks aren't just dealing in contraband. I even suspect they've known about Xiao Beisheng's plan for a long time and are planning to take advantage of him."
Su Changhai chuckled disdainfully: "How is that possible! You think too much about these drug dealers and addicts."
She stared at Su Changhai, her heart pounding. "Have you heard of the Pioneer Special Forces, codenamed 7?"
"What?" Su Changhai was confused.
Su Man said: "You don't know anything about your ex-wife."
Su Changhai frowned.
"Codename 7 brought together the best talents from all walks of life. They were loyal and dedicated to their country, but they disappeared overnight, as if they had evaporated from the face of the earth," Suman said. "And the woman you married and had children with was one of them."
For the next two long hours, the atmosphere in the cabin was heavy and depressing.
Su Man listed to Su Changhai the true identity that Bai Lan had tried so hard to hide in the past, as well as what she had learned in the past few days about the past of Black Hawk and Bai Lan, and some of the truth behind the fragmented clues that Su Man had pieced together.
After hearing all this, Su Changhai just said "impossible" and got up and went out. Outside the corridor, he lit a cigarette facing the sea.
He smoked one cigarette after another.
When there were cigarette butts scattered around his feet, he turned back and suddenly seemed to have aged by more than ten years.
"Even if it's true as you said, and Jiang Ningyue wants revenge, what does it have to do with you? What can you do if you go back?"
He has lost his wife.
I can't lose my daughter again.
Su Man said, "I have to stop Bai Lan and stop her from making the same mistake over and over again. You probably don't want her to finally save her life and then give it away again, right?"
Su Chang was stunned. Hai wiped his face, as if he was considering some important decision.
Su Man wanted to say a few more words to persuade him and add fuel to the fire, but he had already turned around and strode out of the cabin.
Su Man heard him ordering outside:
"Turn around and go back to Lai Mansion. Increase the speed, the faster the better."
-
It was already the morning of the third day when Bai Lan returned to the Bai Mansion.
The servant came to report that Suman was missing.
Bai Lan nearly turned the house upside down, and then he heard from the servants that before Su Man disappeared, Su Changhai had come to the Bai Mansion and made a big fuss.
Bai Lan understood in an instant, and was stunned.
Eleven: "Madam, should we send someone immediately?"
Bai Lan leaned back on the chaise longue and waved her hands weakly. "I guess it was Su Changhai who took Nannan away. If that's the case, it's good. Nannan will be safer by his side when she returns to Haicheng. If she continues to stay here, I'll have to devote my energy to protecting her."
After she finished speaking, she looked a little lost.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone outside reported that Xiao Beisheng was coming.
Bai Lan sat up straight and said, "Let him in."
Not long after, Xiao Beisheng came in quickly, looking like he was coming to call someone to task. "Madam Bai, I heard Luo Yan didn't come back with you. What happened? Where is she?"
