"He's the chairman of Bai Feng Group, the current patriarch of the Bai family," Yi Jinli said. Then, he looked somewhat strangely at Ling Yiran. "Don't you know who he is? Have you never heard Qin Lianyi mention him before?"
Ling Yiran shook her head. She was certain that she had never heard the name Bai Tingxin from her best friend.
However, she did know that Bai Feng Group was not a local enterprise. They had corporations in Shen City and was a famous shipping company.
Why was Lianyi associated with this Bai Tingxin? What puzzled her more was that the man earlier had said that Bai Tingxin captured her himself.
Did that mean that Bai Tingxin was actually in the Maybach she saw today?
She thought her best friend had been kidnapped, but now it seemed to be a different case.
"Then... I'll go find her!" Ling Yiran turned sharply, intending to follow the address she had just heard to find her best friend.
"Do you think you can get in there?" Yi Jinli said lightly.
"..." Ling Yiran suddenly stopped in her tracks and hesitated before saying, "Then... I'll talk to the police first and ask them to take me with them."
"In that case, I can guarantee 100% that you won't get in." Yi Jinli smiled gently and slowly walked up to Ling Yiran. As though looking at a naive child, he said, "Do you know what Bai Tingxin is like? There are 100 ways he can keep you from seeing your friends."
Ling Yiran naturally did not know what Bai Tingxin was like, so she could only look at the man in front of her.
Yi Jinli explained. "Bai Tingxin was originally an illegitimate child of the Bai family who was left abroad. His father had a lot of sons. Many of them were born out of wedlock, only two of them weren’t. How do you think a bastard who was not taken seriously could get to where he is now?"
Ling Yiran's heart sank. Yi Jinli did not say much, but she more or less understood what Bai Tingxin was like.
He narrowed his eyes. She was begging him just for Qin Lianyi.
She had also begged him in front of the police station earlier. It was as if she could do just about anything for Qin Lianyi.
Just because Qin Lianyi always helped her with her case? His mind flashed through the words she had spoken of Qin Lianyi.
She was now begging him for Qin Lianyi because... Qin Lianyi was her lifeline? A lifeline she could not let go?
"Yes, I can take you to Bai Tingxin, but... why should I help you? I've helped you find out Qin Lianyi's whereabouts, and I've also told you that Qin Lianyi is not in any danger. I'm a businessman, so I'm not going to do anything that’ll cause me a loss over and over again," Yi Jinli said darkly.
Ling Yiran bit her lip as her face grew pale. What could she give him for his help?
