"Bah, who wants to play with you. Stay or leave, I don't care," Niu Qiuling glared at him, pouting, and huffed before stomping away angrily.
"Remember to take good care of your wounds. Don't let water touch them when you bathe," Wan Yunting called back, not forgetting to remind her.
"Got it."
Niu Qiuling opened the door, shot him a glare, then turned and left.
Wan Yunting chuckled. Remembering something, he picked up the nearby duffel bag and opened it, taking out his original phone. Yang Dong and the others had confiscated it earlier, and it was returned to him, but Wan Yunting hadn't turned it on.
After powering it on and entering his unlock code, dozens of missed calls immediately popped up. There were a few from his second brother, a few from Jiang Yichun, some from Jiang Wenhao and others, over ten from Bai Luotang, but the most were from Fang Yanxi's number, dozens of them.
Seeing Fang Yanxi's most recent call, Wan Yunting, who was momentarily stunned, thought of something. His lips curved upwards into a gentle smile, and he directly called Fang Yanxi.
Meanwhile, Fang Yanxi, still in her office, had just turned off the news and was looking at the preparatory documents for the pharmaceutical company. Her pretty face was filled with joy. Knowing the man was alright, all her previous worries had vanished.
Her phone rang beside her. Seeing it was him calling, Fang Yanxi's heart fluttered, and a happy, excited smile spread across her face. Her hand trembled as she picked up the phone. Taking several deep breaths to calm herself, Fang Yanxi answered. Due to her excitement, her voice trembled, "Hello, Yunting..."
"Mhm, are you not off work yet?" Wan Yunting asked with a smile, pouring himself a glass of water.
"Still, not yet..."
Excited, Fang Yanxi felt she had lost her composure. After trying to calm herself, she asked, "Where are you now? I saw the news, why did you go to the Golden Triangle to help the police catch drug dealers?"
Wan Yunting paused, took a sip of water, and then chuckled, "I didn't expect the news to report it so quickly."
"Yes, the news is all about you catching drug dealers," Fang Yanxi couldn't help but ask, "Yunting, what exactly is going on?"
Wan Yunting smiled, "It's nothing much. I just promised Director Pang earlier that I'd go undercover for the police and investigate something in the Golden Triangle, so I assisted the police in capturing a major drug lord."
Hearing his simple description, Fang Yanxi knew he was keeping things confidential. She asked with concern, "Are you alright? Are you injured?"
"I'm fine. If there's nothing else, I'll be heading back to Huadu tomorrow," Wan Yunting said with a smile.
"That's good then."
Hearing that he was alright and that he would be back tomorrow, Fang Yanxi smiled, "Then I'll go to the airport to pick you up tomorrow."
"Okay."
Wan Yunting nodded, then smiled, "Alright, I'll hang up now. I still need to call my second brother and let him know I'm safe."
"Okay, remember to send me your flight information for tomorrow," Fang Yanxi nodded and smiled.
"Mhm, bye."
Wan Yunting nodded. Fang Yanxi also said goodbye. Then, both looked at their phones, neither hanging up. After fifteen seconds, Fang Yanxi smiled and pressed the end call button.
Wan Yunting continued by calling his second brother to explain things and report that he was safe.
Then he called Jiang Yichun. Old Jiang asked him to come back to the Traditional Chinese Medicine department upon his return.
Finally, he called Gu Luotang.
Gu Luotang, at home, was in her room practicing calligraphy. However, with something on her mind, she was distracted and unhappy with her unsightly handwriting.
The reason for this was that she hadn't been able to reach Wan Yunting for some time, which had made her worried and absent-minded.
"Senior Sister..."
At that moment, her junior sister Qi Miaomiao rushed in, holding her phone, and practically threw herself in front of Gu Luotang's desk. "Senior Sister, look quickly, it's Yunting Brother! He, he's in Yunnan..."
"What?"
Gu Luotang looked confused, but upon hearing news of him, her heart leaped with excitement. Seeing Wan Yunting smiling at the camera on Qi Miaomiao's phone, Gu Luotang was stunned.
"This is today's news, it says Yunting Brother was catching drug dealers in the Golden Triangle," Qi Miaomiao said breathlessly, having run back.
Gu Luotang exclaimed excitedly, "Why did he go to the Golden Triangle to catch drug dealers..."
Just then, Gu Luotang's phone, placed on the side, rang. Looking at the caller ID, which displayed Wan Yunting's name, she became agitated. "It's Yunting Brother calling..."
"Quick, answer it."
"Oh..."
Energized, Gu Luotang shakily answered the phone, and Wan Yunting's voice immediately came through: "Luotang, I'm sorry for the past few days. I was handling some matters outside, so my phone was off."
"Mhm, mhm, I just saw the news, saying you were in Yunnan and even went to the Golden Triangle to catch some drug dealers," the excited Gu Luotang asked with great concern, "Yunting Brother, are you injured?"
"I'm fine."
Hearing Gu Luotang's concern, Wan Yunting chuckled, "I'll be back in Huadu tomorrow. We can chat then."
"Okay, I'll wait for you to come back then..."
Momentarily excited, Gu Luotang didn't know what else to say on the phone with Wan Yunting and let him end the call. Qi Miaomiao asked, "Is he coming back tomorrow?"
"Mhm, mhm." Gu Luotang's previously melancholic brows finally relaxed, revealing a smile.
"Senior Sister, why didn't you ask him when he's coming back, or if he's flying, so we can go pick him up?" Qi Miaomiao looked at Gu Luotang, who was beaming like a lovesick girl, and felt like she could not be helped.
"Ah, I, I didn't think that far..." Gu Luotang felt awkward and anxious about her oversight.
Qi Miaomiao rolled her eyes and said, "He's probably flying. Let's go to the airport tomorrow to intercept him."
"Okay..."
Gu Luotang nodded without hesitation, her heart filled with excitement and an eagerness to see him.
However, at that moment, Wan Yunting was busy calling Jiang Wenhao, completely unaware of the potentially awkward situation at the airport tomorrow.
"Teacher, where have you been all this time? Why was your phone turned off?" Jiang Wenhao was still in the United States.
"Mhm, I went to Yunnan to handle some matters," Wan Yunting said with a smile, then added, "By the way, go to Switzerland for me to handle something later!"
"What is it?" Jiang Wenhao asked.
"I'll tell you later."
What Wan Yunting was referring to was the matter of the gold vault.
Because Yang Dong had already informed Ye Jiao about the Ponca gold vault, and Ye Jiao had secretly dispatched people to prepare for the rapid transfer of the Ponca gold vault to prevent the joint forces of the three countries from discovering the location of the Bajishan gold vault.
"Alright."
Jiang Wenhao nodded, then said, "I just wanted to tell you that with my operations, the Han Corporation won't last much longer."
"Mhm, I know," Wan Yunting nodded. The matter of the Han family was already a foregone conclusion. "I'm still in Yunnan. I'll deal with it when I get back to Huadu tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll be back in a couple of days. Chaoting has already been established," Jiang Wenhao said.
This was because he had been busy registering Chaoting Group in the United States. Meanwhile, in Huadu City, the Chaoting Group building had been fully decorated, and new employees were being recruited. Jiang Wenhao would also be bringing his financial team from the United States back to China to officially launch Chaoting Group.
"Alright, we'll discuss it in detail when you get back. That's all for now."
After speaking, Wan Yunting hung up the phone and called Director Pang, giving him a brief update on the current situation. He would explain the entire process of the Golden Triangle incident to Pang Yuan in detail when he returned to Huadu tomorrow.
