Watching the twins leave, Zhang Manlin took out her phone and dialed a number .
“Hello? Big Brother Qian?”
“Linlin, go ahead . ”
“Big Brother Qian, I just saw the twins . ”
“Oh? Where?”
“In a small town on my way back to the village…”
“That big of a coincidence?” Huo Siqian put down his cigar, surprised . He knew that the twins were kidnapped by Shen Jiani and her accomplice but he never imagined that Zhang Manlin would run into them . It really was a huge coincidence .
“Yea! I was stunned! I don’t know what I should do now… One of the girls, not sure if the older or the younger, is very smart . She found a way to talk to me in the washroom and told me to phone her dad for help . She promised me a large reward . I just wanted to ask for your opinion, Big Brother Qian . ”
“Linlin, what do you think?” Huo Siqian smiled .
“I think… that Qin Chu’s probably worried sick right now . If I give him tips on his daughters, maybe his impression of me will improve and when that happens, I can get closer to him . That’s good for you too, right?” Zhang Manlin was still caught up in her love for Qin Chu .
She couldn’t see Huo Siqian’s face of contempt over the phone .
“Big Brother Qian, what do you think? If I tell him, he’ll definitely be grateful towards me, right?” Zhang Manlin’s voice was laced with excitement .
“Linlin… you’re still too young . ” Huo Siqian seemed to be implying something .
“Big Brother Qian, what do you mean by that? I… don’t really understand . ” Zhang Manlin couldn’t decipher what Huo Siqian was thinking and was too afraid of him to guess .
“What I mean is… Linlin, Qin Chu’s probably never going to trust you . So, he won’t appreciate anything you do for him . Even if you save his twins, he’s probably still going to treat you poorly . He won’t give you anything other than money… but, you don’t need money . I can give you money, right?”
“You’re right… so what should I do? Should I just ignore the twins?”
“No, you should definitely do something, but maybe do it another way?” Huo Siqian began to drop hints .
“What way? Big Brother Qian, could you be clearer?”
Huo Siqian raised his right hand and rubbed his temples with his long fingers, sighing .
“Linlin… my plan is near completion . If Qin Chu gets distracted at this point… it’ll give me the perfect opportunity…”
“Big Brother Qian… you’re saying…” Zhang Manlin got the hint .
“Yes, go ahead and don’t worry about anything . Stir the pot any way you want to . ”
“Alright, I understand . Thank you, Brother Qian . ”
“Oh, right . Before I forget, I have to remind you of something . ”
“Go ahead, Big Brother Qian . ” Zhang Manlin was polite as could be, afraid to offend Huo Siqian to even the slightest degree .
“The twins are incredibly intelligent . If you don’t help them, you need to find a way to escape . Otherwise, once they get out of trouble, they won’t forgive you . ”
“Alright, I understand . ”
After the phone call, Zhang Manlin gritted her teeth in silence .
At the other end, Ah-Cheng looked at his boss with fear in his eyes . “Boss, what did you mean by that?”
“You don’t understand, do you?”
“Boss, you’ve always cherished Miss Huo… why did you…?” Ah-Cheng didn’t finish his sentence out loud but his question was clear to Huo Siqian .
During his phone call with Zhang Manlin, not only did he tell her not to save the twins, he told her to stall for time .
