Chapter 251: Chapter 251 I Won’t Let Rong Shaoze Find You

She hadn’t expected Rong Shaoze to move that fast, nor had she expected them to catch her so quickly.

Lin Xinlan darted into the bus station, where there were many vehicles; she hid everywhere, using the buses to shield herself from their pursuit.

After circling around for a bit, she ran out through another exit, but unfortunately, they saw her again.

Cursing her luck, suddenly a hand grabbed her wrist and pulled her forward as they ran.

She was so startled she almost fought back, but upon recognizing the person, she ceased struggling and followed him into a van.

The van drove off just as two men were about to catch up to it.

Only after Lin Xinlan saw from the rear window that they had shaken them off did she breathe a sigh of relief.

She turned to Qiao Yiyang beside her and asked with confusion, "Mr. Qiao, how come you are here?"

Qiao Yiyang smiled and said, "It was Mingyan who asked me to come rescue you."

"Rong Mingyan?!"

"Yes, he’s aware of your situation. He doesn’t agree with Shaoze’s methods, so he wanted me to help you."

A flicker of surprise and suspicion crossed Lin Xinlan’s heart. "I still don’t understand why he would help me. Logically speaking, isn’t Rong Shaoze his cousin? Even if he disapproves, he wouldn’t help me over him. Also, how did he know I would be here?"

Qiao Yiyang’s eyes flickered slightly as he spoke hesitantly, "Actually, I have been following you since you left the press conference..."

"You..."

"I’m sorry. I might as well be honest, I got your information from Mingyan. He and I are good friends, and he knew that your relationship with Shaoze was not good, so he helped me find out. Only then did we learn that you were planning to leave today. I was worried Shaoze would not let you go, so I decided to secretly follow you and protect you as a precaution."

Lin Xinlan’s expression became slightly rigid; her intuition as a woman told her Qiao Yiyang might have feelings for her.

Immediately, her gaze towards Qiao Yiyang became somewhat evasive.

"Mr. Qiao, how did Rong Mingyan know that I would leave today?"

"It seems like it was accidentally overheard by him when Shaoze’s parents were talking. He knows about the deal you made with Mrs. Rong and that you were going to leave today," Qiao Yiyang said frankly, without any evasion or concealment.

Lin Xinlan nodded in relief, "So that’s what happened."

"Miss Lin, don’t worry, I won’t let Rong Shaoze find you," Qiao Yiyang suddenly assured her solemnly.

"That’s not necessary," she shook her head hurriedly, "Mr. Qiao, thank you for your help just now. You can drop me off somewhere later, and I can leave on my own."

Qiao Yiyang frowned slightly, "I’m afraid you can’t leave now."

"Why not?"

"Rong Shaoze has already found out that you’re leaving and he’s definitely not going to give up easily. He will have people at every exit to intercept you. If you move rashly, you’ll surely be caught by him. I think you have to hide for a while until he gives up, then you can leave."

"Alright, I’ll find a place to stay for the time being."

Qiao Yiyang laughed, "Miss Lin, do you not realize how powerful Shaoze’s influence is? If he wants to find someone in B City, it’s a breeze. No matter where you stay, he can find you."

Lin Xinlan grew anxious, "Then what should I do?"

"There’s a place he won’t check."

"Where?"

"Mingyan’s house."

Lin Xinlan froze; she was to stay at Rong Mingyan’s house? How could she? If Rong Shaoze found out later...
