Chapter 2012: A Dead-end

"Why are you here?" Xiao Yuqian asked, thinking that Ma Haodong was at his university.

"To help you, what else?" Ma Haodong said as he pulled Xiao Yuqian into his arms. "There's no way I'm going to stand and watch as my woman is in trouble."

"Thank you. I would never have gotten out of there if you didn't come."

"Where do you want to go now?" Ma Haodong asked.

"I need to meet with Lanlan."

Ma Haodong immediately ordered his driver to drive them to where Nie Zhenglan was staying at. He didn't follow Xiao Yuqian into the building as he waited in the car patiently.

Nie Zhenglan wasn't surprised when Xiao Yuqian appeared at her doorstep.

"You saw the news, right?" Xiao Yuqian asked.

"I did, but what could I do?" Nie Zhenglan replied. "There's nothing I could do to help him."
