The Billionaire's Hidden Affection

Suddenly, it was dusk.

Having gone without rest for a full day and night, he felt dizzy and unsteady when he went out, nearly stumbling to the ground. Fortunately, Liu Daqing was quick-eyed and helped him up.

"Donglin... try to stay calm... nobody wants this kind of thing to happen... and it was beyond our prediction... I also saw it, Xixi’s name was indeed on the list..."

He replied firmly, "That’s impossible!"

Liu Daqing sighed inwardly.

At this moment, he had lost his rationality, was very stubborn, and very foolish.

"Absolutely impossible! She’s just scaring me. Mom, you know, she has that kind of temper."

"..."

He was in a daze, continuously dialing that number.

Again and again, more than hundreds of times?

Finally, his phone ran out of power.

He took a charger and started dialing with another phone, but still, there was no response.

"I called someone to investigate the passenger list thoroughly, and so far, nothing seems out of the ordinary... However, there are three very special passengers on the plane, one is a nuclear physics expert, and another is a renowned biologist, both having extraordinary accomplishments in their respective fields..."

As a fact, countless plane crashes, in the end, are related to the special individuals behind the scenes.

Yan Xixi is an ordinary person, why would anyone target her? Liu Daqing wondered if she got caught up because of someone else above her?

As the saying goes, ’For one general’s success, thousands of bones die.’

Often, just one special person can jeopardize hundreds of lives.

"Donglin, don’t worry yet, the rescue operation has already started... your anxiety won’t help..."

Wan Donglin turned a deaf ear, only for a long time did he put down the overheated phone: "Mom, it’s time, I need to go."

Liu Daqing chased after him: "Donglin..."

He looked back: "What’s the matter?"

Liu Daqing sighed deeply but said nothing.

"Alright, Mom, I’ll inform you immediately once there’s any news."

"Be careful."

Liu Daqing watched her son leave, her heart filled with uncertainty. At this moment, she didn’t want Wan Donglin to take any risks. After all, with Yan Xixi having just met with an accident, what if something happened to her son too? However, she swallowed the words.

She just muttered to herself: Why is it always troubled times? Just won a victory, thought life would settle down, yet a bigger storm awaited.

The private jet was already waiting.

Wan Donglin was about to board when a call came.

"Donglin... wait for you to attend the meeting..."

He said lightly, "I can’t make it today, I have an urgent matter..."

Old Zhang was evidently very surprised, his voice turning slightly stern: "Donglin, today’s meeting is extraordinary, it concerns your official post. How can you not come at such a crucial time? What’s so important that you would risk your career and reputation? No one will save your seat! How can you be so inconsiderate?"

"My wife’s in trouble!"

"What happened?"

"She was on the troubled plane."

Old Zhang was shocked beyond words: "How could this be? Though I knew something happened, I didn’t see the list... I’m very sorry, I didn’t know she was on board..."

"I can’t come anymore, handle it."

"Hello... Donglin... never mind, go deal with your own matters first."
