Hou Zicheng agreed at the time, saying he indeed had connections and could get in touch quickly. He asked her to be ready by midday the next day, and once the call came, to find a way to take the children out of the compound.
Time was ticking away, minute by minute.
Yet there was no movement from the phone.
Finally, the phone rang. Yuan Yunong rushed over and grabbed the phone on the table: "Hello! Old Hou..."
"Hei Mei! Are you looking for death?" Hua Jin's icy cold voice came through the phone, sending a shiver down Yuan Yunong's spine.
"Hua Jin, let me explain!" Yuan Yunong tried to speak, but was ruthlessly interrupted.
"Your plan is canceled! Meet me tonight!"
"But..."
"No buts!" Hua Jin hung up the phone.
Yuan Yunong slowly put down the phone. Since Hua Jin spoke like that, he must have seen the note.
The plan has changed. Hou Zicheng must have also received the news by now, right?
