After booking the flight and hotel, Charlie wade shared the news with his wife, father-in-law, and mother-in-law.
The family had never gone on a holiday together, so everyone was filled with anticipation for this short getaway.
Upon learning that Charlie wade had chosen Baima Island, Elaine’s first move was to post on her social media, boasting about it. She even looked up information about Baima Island and the prices on its booking page, sharing it all in her post.
Always eager to show off, she naturally seized this opportunity to build excitement.
Charlie wade couldn’t stay long in Aurous Hill, as Tawana’s concert in Hu City was set to begin in three days.
So, after resting at home for two days, he prepared to head to Hu City.
Hu City was only 300 kilometres from Aurous Hill, so close there were no direct flights. Charlie wade decided to drive there himself.
His father-in-law’s old BMW 530 had been sitting idle, so he packed a few clothes and got ready to take it.
As Claire Wilson saw him off, she reminded him to drive carefully. Charlie wade promised he would and drove out of Tomson Yipin.
Just as he hit the highway, he received a call from Lin Wan’er.
In the two days since returning, Charlie wade hadn’t gone out to meet anyone, including Lin Wan’er.
When he answered, Lin Wan’er asked, “Has the young master returned to Aurous Hill?”
Charlie wade replied, “I’ve been back for two days, but I’m on my way out now.”
Lin Wan’er chuckled softly, “This servant knows, the young master must be heading to Hu City, right? That Tawana is about to hold a concert there, isn’t she?”
“Yes,” Charlie wade said. “I’m nominally her feng shui director, so I need to make an appearance.”
Lin Wan’er said, “This servant has seen videos of her performance. The young master’s swordsmanship was truly fluid and impressive!”
Charlie wade exclaimed, “How did you know it was me?”
Lin Wan’er laughed, “This servant isn’t foolish. I’d recognise the young master’s silhouette anywhere, even with your face covered.”
Charlie wade felt a chill down his spine.
If Lin Wan’er could identify him, Claire Wilson surely could too.
When Charlie wade fell silent, Lin Wan’er smiled and said, “Please don’t misunderstand, young master. This servant isn’t teasing you. I only mentioned it in passing. I called because I have serious matters to discuss.”
Charlie wade sighed and said, “Miss Lin, please go ahead.”
Lin Wan’er explained, “Didn’t the young master want to arrange for Miss Moore to safely come to China? I had Old Sun look into it, and in a few days, an official humanitarian rescue team will return from Syria. The authorities will send a military transport plane to bring them back, and it’s common for stationed personnel to hitch a ride. So, I had Old Sun prepare a military identity for Miss Moore, allowing her to return on that flight.”
When Charlie wade left Morocco, all the dead warriors, knight guards, their families, and Song Rife, a former officer of the Qing Breakers, were sent by ship to Syria.
However, Charlie wade didn’t plan to leave Song Rife in Syria. Like Grace Lowes, she carried a strange poison left by Wu Fiona. He intended to safely transport her to China and arrange for her to meet Grace Lowes.
Hearing there was now a reliable channel, Charlie wade asked, “Miss Lin, when exactly does this flight take off, and where in China will it land?”
