A few minutes later, Zhu Ye contacted Mark.

"Shang Fangxu, save me." Mark's weak voice was heard over the radio.

Shang Fangxu was shocked. I didn't expect Mark to be so downset.

"Mark, where are you? How's your situation? ”

There was a violent cough on the airwaves, followed by the girl's nervous and worried voice, mixed with sobbing, "Daddy, Daddy"

Shang Fangxu heard it. It's Mark coughing, and the girl is the voice is Mark's daughter Kathy.

It seems that Mark is injured, and the injury is not light.

"Shang Fangxu, I am in Vientiane, the capital of Laos, and Kathy and I are surrounded by Raymond's people. He's going to kill us. As he spoke, Mark coughed violently again, "I'm dying, I beg you, save Kathy, I don't want her to die, and I don't want her to be caught by Raymond." ”

"Daddy. Daddy"

Listening to Mark's weak voice and Kathy's crying, Shang Fangxu's brows were almost twisted.

"Mark, how long can your people last?"

"Half a day at most."

Quite a while. It would take six hours to get to the Lao capital at the earliest, and if he was late, he would never be able to repay Mark for saving his lives to Shang Fangyan and Chu Qiao twice.

didn't have time to hesitate, Shang Fangxu immediately agreed, "Okay, Mark, you must hold on." I'll be there in seven hours. ”

After hanging up the phone, Shang Fangxu immediately ordered the helicopter to change the route and fly to the Lao capital, so that the Shang family could mobilize the manpower and forces of the Shang family in Southeast Asia, prepare the most advanced weapons, and rush to the Lao capital as quickly as possible.

At the same time, the most elite troops of the Shang family in City B were dispatched to fly with him to the capital of Laos.

Shang Fangxu knew very well that Raymond was not simple, so this time he was bound to go to Laos in person and do his best to rescue Mark and Kathy father and daughter, otherwise, he would not be sure to take people away from Raymond.

When everything was ready, Shang Fangxu's gaze fell on the black velvet box on his right.

"Young Master, what about Miss Zimo's coming-of-age ball?"

Shang Fangxu frowned slightly, raised his wrist and looked at the time, it would soon be the time for the dance party to start, at this time, Xia Zimo should be ready to appear.

Today is an adult ball exclusive to Xia Zimo, and he doesn't want to ruin Xia Zimo's good mood because of the news of his absence.

Moreover, he couldn't let others know about Mark's affairs for the time being, which would only increase all kinds of dangers beyond his control.

Since he can't find a good reason to explain why he can't attend the ball, it's better not to say anything for the time being, and after rescuing Mark, he will apologize to Xia Zimo in person.

************

S City, the mansion of the Mo family.

It's not time for the dance to start yet, but outside the Mo family's mansion, all kinds of world-class luxury cars have been made one after another, just like the most extravagant luxury car exhibition, which is dazzling.

Famous beauties, beautiful ladies, fragrant clothes and sideburns, wealthy sons, celebrities and elites from all walks of life are all dressed up, one after another.

Xia Zimo stood at the highest position in the main building of the mansion with a telescope and kept looking at the gate, looking for the long-lost figure in the crowd of people one after another.

Time passed little by little, and soon it was time for the dance to begin, but the expected figure never appeared.

"Has Shang Fang been recounted?" Xia Zimo asked the maid on the side.

The maid shook her head, "No." ”

Xia Zimo frowned slightly and bit the corner of his lip.

The dance is about to start, why didn't Shang Fangxu arrive, is there something delayed? Or did Shang Fangxu lie to her at all, in fact, he didn't plan to come to her coming-of-age ball at all.

After taking his mobile phone from the servant, Xia Zimo immediately wanted to call Shang Fangxu to ask what he meant.

However, before the finger fell, she hesitated again.

She couldn't wait to ask Shang Fangxu so much, didn't she just prove to Shang Fangxu how much she cared about him?

I haven't seen him for three years, I haven't been in touch for three years, Shang Fangxu can be so arrogant, he can ignore her feelings so much, if he lets Shang Fangxu know that she still cares about him so much, then doesn't he even take her in his eyes?

She is the dignified eldest lady of the Mo family, who is loved by thousands of people, and others are out of reach, when does she have to chase a Shang Fangxu.

However, she was not willing to ask her.

Just as Xia Zimo was struggling with whether to call Shang Fangxu, Xia Nian came over.

"Baby, the prom is about to begin, it's your turn."

"Mommy, can you wait a little longer?" Xia Zimo said pleadingly.

Of course, Xia Nian knew who Xia Zimo was waiting for, but the identities of all the people present today were not simple, although the Mo family had the strength not to be afraid of offending people, but changing the start time of the dance for no reason to make everyone wait was not the Mo family's usual style of doing things.

"Zimo, everyone is waiting for you, you can't delay everyone's time because of one person."

Xia Zimo pursed the corners of his lips and thought for a moment, and finally nodded and left with Xia Nian.

Perhaps, Shang Fangxu just wanted to give her an unexpected surprise, he would definitely appear.

The originally boiling hall suddenly quieted down because of Xia Zimo's appearance, and everyone watched with bated breath the appearance of the most noble and gorgeous princess tonight, especially the men, who all stared at the spotlight without blinking, and their amazing and greedy eyes fell on Xia Zimo's body unabashedly.

Xia Zimo became famous at the age of seven and held a solo world tour at the age of eight, so no one was not impressed by her intelligence and beauty.

Now, Xia Zimo, who has transformed into an eighteen-year-old girl, can conquer everyone's hearts with just one glance, regardless of men and women.

Accompanied by Xia Nian and Mo Xize, Xia Zimo slowly walked to the center of the hall wearing a white princess dress.

Under the light, she is not only a princess that people yearn for, but also like a goddess, illuminating everyone's sight.

In everyone's breathless anticipation, Mo Xize began to introduce his baby daughter to everyone.

Xia Zimo stood in the spotlight, although he was still thinking about why Shang Fangxu hadn't come yet, but he maintained a generous and decent smile on his face.

After Mo Xize's introduction, the right to speak was handed over to Xia Zimo.

Xia Zimo smiled and said a few words, and then the dance party officially began.

At the ball, the sons of various wealthy families rushed to invite Xia Zimo to dance, and Xia Zimo did not refuse, but his mind was not at all on the object of dancing with him, and he didn't even remember the name and appearance of the other party.

The time of the dance passed little by little, but the person Xia Zimo was waiting for never appeared.

In order to paralyze herself, Xia Zimo danced frantically with other boys and poured herself wine crazily, only when she was paralyzed, she wouldn't think about why Shang Fangxu didn't come, obviously he agreed, but he didn't come.

Xia Nian and Mo Xize found that something was wrong with Xia Zimo, and planned to let Xia Zimo leave the stage first before the dance was over.

But Xia Zimo was really a little drunk, and she actually pulled the person who danced with her and refused to let go, laughing and saying that she hadn't danced enough.

"Mr. Mo, Mrs. Mo, I can't help but send Miss Zimo back to the room to rest." The man who was pulled by Xia Zimo was very respectful and polite.

The man's name is Ye Junyu, twenty-one years old, tall and long, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, handsome appearance, is the only son of the chairman of Zhenshi Jewelry Group, the largest jewelry group in S City and China.

Xia Nian looked at the ten fingers that Xia Zimo and Ye Junyu were tightly clasped together, and knew that Xia Zimo must have been drunk and took Ye Junyu as Shang Fangxu.

In front of so many people, Xia Nian naturally couldn't forcibly take Xia Zimo away, let alone refute Ye Junyu's face, so he nodded, and Ye Junyu and her led Xia Zimo back to the room.

As soon as he returned to the room, Xia Zimo collapsed on the big bed, but his hand was still holding Ye Junyu's hand tightly, and there was no sign of letting go.

Xia Nian asked the maid to wring a hot towel, wiped Xia Zimo's face, patted her gently, and said, "Zimo, be good, let go of Young Master Ye." ”

Xia Zimo closed his eyes and shook his head, frowning slightly, "No, no, Shang Fangxu, don't go, don't go." ”

Sure that he was treated as someone else by Xia Zimo, Ye Junyu smiled and was not angry at all, "Mrs. Mo, it's okay, if Miss Zimo likes it, let her hold it." ”

Mo Xize shook his head helplessly, and finally understood why Xia Zimo was a little abnormal all night.

However, Mo Xize didn't want Ye Junyu to accompany his daughter all night, so he stretched out his hand and wanted to break Xia Zimo's hand, but as soon as he exerted his strength, Xia Zimo's hand tightened.

"Don't, Shang Fangxu, don't go." Xia Zimo muttered softly, and tears slipped out of the corners of his eyes.

Xia Nian and Mo Xize were both shocked, and they didn't dare to break Xia Zimo's hand anymore.

"Mr. Mo, Mrs. Mo, just let me accompany Miss Zimo by the bedside, I don't care, really." Ye Junyu was very sincere, and when he saw the tears in the corners of Xia Zimo's eyes, he was also shocked and even more moved.

Xia Nian and Mo Xize both sighed lightly, and now it seems that Ye Junyu can only accompany Zimo temporarily.

************

Vientiane, the capital of Laos.

After almost two hours of whirling and fierce fighting with Raymond, Shang Fangxu finally entered the villa where Mark's father and daughter were trapped, and saw Mark who was already dying and Kathy, whose eyes were already swollen from crying, and Mark's side was still lying his wife, but there was no sign of life.

"Hold on, Mark, I'll get you out of here." Shang Fangxu, who was holding a pistol and wearing a black trench coat, rushed to Mark's side and left without hesitation.

Mark shook his head, raised his hand to grab Shang Fangxu's hand, looked at his daughter beside him and said, "Shang Fangxu, thank you for being so trustworthy and punctual to save me, but I'm almost dying, now, I ask you to take my daughter away and take good care of her." ”

Shang Fangxu held Mark's hand tightly, and he saw that Mark had several gunshot wounds on his body, and due to excessive blood loss, Mark's body was basically bloodless, and it was terrifyingly white.

"No, Daddy, you can't leave me, Mommy has already left me, you can't leave me again." Kathy clutched Mark's other hand tightly, already crying.

Shang Fangxu had seen Kathy, it was ten years ago that Shang Fangyan's plane was blown up by Shang Yu, and Mark sent a stealth plane to save Shang Fangyan and brought Shang Fangyan back to the Italian mafia headquarters for treatment.

At that time, Kathy was a little girl who was not yet seven years old, and during the days when he was with Shang Fangyan at the mafia headquarters, Kathy had been around him, and when he was about to leave, she made a big fuss and held him to prevent him from leaving.

Ten years later, Kathy has grown into a big girl, but it seems that she still loves to cry as much as she did when she was a child.

"Baby, be obedient, Daddy is no longer good, taking Daddy with him will only affect you and Shang Fangxu, Raymond's goal is Daddy, Daddy stays to distract Raymond's attention, and you and Shang Fangxu can leave smoothly." Mark looked at Kathy and said with difficulty.

"No, no, I don't want to" Kathy suddenly let go of Mark and grabbed Shang Fangxu's arm, pleading with a pleading face, "Shang Fangxu, take my daddy, take me and my daddy together." ”

Shang Fangxu nodded, without a trace of hesitation, "Mark, don't say it, I'll take you with me." ”

As soon as the words fell, Shang Fangxu wanted to carry Mark again, but Mark suddenly used all his strength to push Shang Fangxu away, and then picked up a pistol against his temple.

"Don't, Daddy, don't," Kathy cried out in panic.

"Mark, trust me." Shang Fangxu's brows furrowed, he had the ability to rush in and see their father and daughter, so there must be a way to leave with them.

Mark shook his head, took his last breath, and said angrily, "Shang Fangxu, it's impossible for me to live, if it weren't for waiting for you to rescue my daughter, I wouldn't have been able to hold on now, you take me away, Raymond won't let you go, so, go quickly, take Kathy away, otherwise, I will die in front of you." ”

"Daddy"

"Mark"

"Let's go"

Shang Fangxu could see Mark's determination, and he knew in his heart that Mark had lost too much blood and was dying, and the chances of trying to save his life were very small.

"Okay, Mark, I promise you, I'll take care of Kathy for you." As the words fell, Shang Fangxu grabbed Kathy's wrist and pulled her out of the villa.

"Daddy, Daddy"

Shang Fangxu pulled Kathy and left the villa smoothly under the cover of dense firepower, just as Shang Fangxu's talent withdrew from the villa, there was a "boom" explosion behind him, and the entire villa instantly became a sea of fire.

"Daddy" Kathy shouted back, struggling desperately to pull her hand from Shang Fangxu's palm, and then ran back with arrows.

“kathy。” Shang Fangxu was shocked, it was a rain of bullets and bullets back, and if he was not careful, Kathy would die.

There was no time to hesitate, Shang Fangxu strode after Kathy.

However, Shang Fangxu also knew very well that even if Kathy was chased back, she would continue to struggle and continue to run back, so the moment Kathy was added, Shang Fangxu raised his hand to knock Kathy unconscious, and only in this way could he take Kathy away safely. Stay around and plan.

Picking up Kathy, who had fainted, Shang Fangxu strode in the direction of the helicopter.

However, Shang Fangxu and Kathy's figures were discovered by Raymond's men, and the fire suddenly began to focus on Shang Fangxu.

Unable to dodge, a bullet hit Shang Fangxu's left shoulder.

Shang Fangxu's left arm sank suddenly, and Kathy, who was holding in his arms, almost fell to the ground.

Gritting his teeth, Shang Fangxu continued to rush in the direction of the helicopter with Kathy in his arms.

Blood seeped into his black trench coat, and in the dark night, no one saw how much blood Shang Fangxu had shed, only that his face was pale under the cover of flames.

************

S City, in the Mo family's mansion.

Although he was drunk, Xia Zimo didn't say a word of drunkenness or nonsense all night, just slept quietly, and slept until dawn.

Opening his hazy sleepy eyes, Xia Zimo shook his groggy head, feeling that he had a particularly bad headache.

Xia Nian, who had been guarding, saw that Xia Zimo was awake, and immediately reached out to stroke her forehead, "Zimo." ”

Xia Zimo raised his eyes to look at Xia Nian in front of him, and frowned slightly, "Mommy, my head hurts so much." ”

Before the words fell, Xia Zimo saw Ye Junyu sitting on the edge of the bed.

"Who are you?" Xia Zimo asked in surprise.

Ye Junyu smiled handsomely, and sure enough, all night, Xia Zimo completely regarded him as another man.

"Morning, my name is Ye Junyu, your last dance partner last night."

Xia Zimo frowned and looked at Ye Junyu, only then did he realize that he was actually holding Ye Junyu's hand.

As if he had been touched by a strong current, Xia Zimo immediately retracted his hand, and then said with a wary face, "Why are you in my room?"

Ye Junyu sat on the edge of the bed all night with Xia Zimo, but there was no tiredness on his face, and he was still radiant.

Raising his lips and smiling, just as Ye Junyu wanted to answer Xia Zimo, Xia Nian's voice sounded first.

"Zimo, you drank a little too much last night, and it was Young Master Ye who sent you back to your room."

Xia Zimo nodded, vaguely remembering that he had drunk a lot of wine last night, and dragged Ye Junyu to prevent him from leaving.

With a faint smile politely, Xia Zimo looked at Ye Junyu and said, "Thank you, I was rude." ”

"No, you just drank a little too much and didn't do anything else." Ye Junyu was very careful not to embarrass Xia Zimo.

"Young Master Ye, you have been with Zimo all night, if you don't dislike it, then have breakfast and leave." Xia Nian said with a smile.

"Thank you Mrs. Mo for your kindness, since Miss Zimo is awake, then I'll come back to visit another day." Ye Junyu said politely.

Xia Zimo smiled faintly and didn't say anything, just watched Ye Junyu leave.

After sending Ye Junyu away, Xia Nian took out Xia Zimo's mobile phone and gave it to her.

"Zimo, Xiao Xu sent you a message last night, saying that he couldn't come to your dance party because of something temporary."

Xia Zimo took the phone and saw that it was indeed a message from Shang Fangxu, but it was sent halfway through the ball.

The corners of his mouth couldn't help but pull lightly, all ridicule and bitterness.

Shang Fangxu didn't care about how busy she was, and she actually remembered that she couldn't attend her dance almost two hours after the dance started, and then she didn't explain anything, and a message solved everything.

"Zimo, is there any misunderstanding between you and Xiao Xu?" Xia Nian asked worriedly.

"Mommy, I'm so hungry, can you help me prepare food?" Xia Zimo looked at Xia Nian, and a layer of mist surged in his eyes.

Xia Nian sighed inaudibly, she knew that continuing to ask at this time would only make Zimo more sad.

"Okay, you go take a shower, I'll go prepare breakfast for you."

"Thank you, Mommy."

In the steamy bathroom, water droplets mixed with tears flowed down Xia Zimo's cheeks and slid into the corners of her mouth, a bitter taste that had never been seen before.

In the past three years, she has tried to restrain herself from contacting Shang Fangxu, not because of anything else, but because she just wants to complete her goal and get her diploma as soon as possible, so that she can return to China as soon as possible, be with Shang Fangxu as soon as possible, and help him as soon as possible.

However, why, why does Shang Fangxu ignore her like this now, and he doesn't care about her feelings at all.

No, she had to ask.

She wanted to know why Shang Fangxu did this to her, she wanted to know what Shang Fangxu thought, whether he still liked her or not, whether he remembered what he said when he was a child, whether he still wanted it, and whether he would marry her.

After making up his mind, Xia Zimo quickly finished taking a shower and walked out of the bathroom, and then went to tell Xia Nian that he wanted to go to City B to talk to Shang Fangxu.

Xia Nian was relieved when he heard Zimo say this, as long as the two of them could sit down calmly and have a good chat, Xia Nian believed that there was no contradiction and misunderstanding between Shang Fangxu and Xia Zimo that could not be solved, after all, Xia Zimo liked Shang Fangxu very much.

As for whether Shang Fangxu still likes Xia Zimo as before, Xia Nian can't be sure.

"Okay, if you think so, Daddy Mommy will be relieved." Xia Nian hugged Zimo, "Shang Fangxu is not an unreasonable person, as long as you can open your hearts and have a good chat, you will definitely gain a lot." ”

Xia Zimo nodded, "Well, I know that if Shang Fangxu really changes his mind and doesn't like me anymore, I will give up and stop pestering him." ”

Mo Xize put his arm around Xia Nian with one hand, stroked Xia Zi's long black hair with the other, and said angrily, "My daughter is so good, if Shang Fangxu's stinky boy doesn't like you, it's his loss, there are so many boys who like you, we don't necessarily have to like him." ”

Xia Zimo smiled, with her parents who doted on her so much, what did she have to be wronged about, even if Shang Fangxu really changed her mind and no longer liked her, she was not worth being sad for him.

"Yes, thank you Daddy, thank you Mommy."
