Rong Zhi said calmly, "Just help me get in touch."
Zeus chuckled, "Alright, I'll ask around for you later. I'll let you know once it's sorted."
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Rong Zhi picked up the cup of milk, took a sip, and squinted a little, but didn't drink anymore.
...
The night is as cool as water.
Capital International Airport, VIP channel.
Two tall figures walked out from inside.
The slightly shorter one wore a dejected expression, "Bai Su, you're exploiting manpower."
Not a single benefit was given, just having him fly around like an assistant.
Bai Su slowly adjusted his cuffs, rolling them up to the elbows, exposing skin that was pale and with excellent lines.
He said nothing.
Jiang Gujun glanced at the two oversized suitcases in his hands, "Are you on a business trip or moving house, bringing such large suitcases."
Each suitcase was thirty inches, with the weight of the case plus its contents, around forty pounds each.
Bai Su's voice was indifferent, having not spoken for a while on the plane, it came out a bit hoarse.
"Moving."
Jiang Gujun's steps paused, his expression slightly changed, and after a long while, he spoke hesitantly, "Are you going to stay long-term in Beijing? Really not returning to Shengge Island?"
The Bai Family, though leaving Beijing for an island at sea fifty years ago to establish its domain, remained the capital's preeminent clan.
Even far from Hua Country, the Bai Family's prestige and power continued to overshadow the other three families.
Eighteen years ago, during the rearrangement of the four great families' power due to "Yingshen Weirong," it was the Bai Family's current leader who suppressed, calming the situation.
Afterwards, the Bai Family returned to Shengge Island, and hadn't been back for eighteen years.
Bai Su, the eldest son of the Bai Family's direct line, should he decide now to reside in Beijing, Jiang Gujun could already envision the panic and prepared stance among the capital's other prominent families upon hearing the news.
Bai Su looked down at his phone, his soft black hair fell onto his prominent nose.
His naturally alluring eyes showed a hint of weariness now, languid and charming.
After replying to a message, Bai Su casually put his phone back in his pocket, one hand in his pocket, speaking slowly, "Long-term, no need to reveal identity."
Jiang Gujun understood, responded "Okay," "Then I'll find someone to help you cover your tracks."
The Bai Family has hackers on payroll, but this situation is peculiar. Bai Su was expelled by the family leader, who is also his own father, so no one is there to hide his whereabouts anymore.
This matter has already spread on Shengge Island, Bai Su flew hastily to Hua Country partly because his father demanded he leave Shengge Island within two days.
The Bai Family follows old traditional rules, only the direct line can inherit, Bai Su is the eldest, yet he has three younger brothers eager for the heir's position.
And starting from Father Bai's generation, old rules changed, inheritance became based on ability, meaning even as the eldest, Bai Su must compete fairly for it.
Bai Su lived at his maternal grandparents' home until age eight, then returned to Shengge Island for unified schooling, and after adulthood, was dispatched abroad by Father Bai.
Five years later, upon returning, the Bai Family's power was intentionally or unintentionally divided among the three brothers by Father Bai.
Bai Su is now isolated, ordered by Father Bai to leave the island.
He is practically penniless, with nothing left.
Oddly, Bai Su seems unconcerned.
He got in the car.
Jiang Gujun instructed the driver, "To Tingshan Villa."
Then he opened his phone and began contacting people.
Bai Su leaned back on the seat, resting his eyes, his expression calm.
