Love Comes After Marriage novel Chapter 968

"The decision is in your hands...I'll give you two hours to think it over."

After speaking, President Fan laughed and hung up his phone. Because, simply threatening Tangning, was already a victory for him.

But, Tangning never did as expected. The more worrying a situation was, the better she was at hiding her thoughts and the calmer she remained. So, there was no way she'd accept President Fan's suggestion. In fact, she was going to make him pay a hefty price.

After talking to President Fan, Tangning immediately called Mo Ting and told him about the current situation as well as President Fan's pressures.

Mo Ting fell silent. After sitting quietly in his office for a moment, he asked in uncertainty, "You won't be going, right?"

"Of course I will, but I will make careful preparations," Tangning replied. "You will help me, right?"

"Ting, you understand how I am. I don't like being threatened. If it wasn't because I had no choice, I would not result to methods like this."

As soon as Mo Ting heard this, the couple were on the same page.

"I understand. I'll get back to you in two hours."

Tangning knew they Mo Ting understood what she was thinking. So, the most important thing now was for Lu Che to find Lin Qian.

...

At that moment, the sun had just set. It took Lin Qian and the hostel owner's daughter a bit of time, but they finally located a nearby farmhouse where they could stay the night.

However, the two brothers in the farmhouse were particularly friendly to the two women, "I wonder why two young women like yourselves would end up at a remote country village like this?"

"We are here to look for someone..."

"Are you here because of the plane crash as well?" the older brother asked. "You may not believe me, but, at the time of the crash, I was nearby with my sheep. Because the crash was so loud, my sheep all ran away and I had to chase them around for quite some time..."

"Anything else?"

"I also ran into a soldier. He was a tall and skinny man that was covered in injuries and he headed towards the bottom of the gorge. As I was scared, I did not reveal myself. Are you guys looking for him, perhaps?"

As soon as Lin Qian heard this, she immediately grabbed onto the man's shirt and asked, "Is that really what you saw?"

"Yes, that's what I saw. How could I lie about something like that?"

"So, he was alive?"

"Yes, and he could walk as well. But, there are a lot of wild animals at the bottom of the gorge, I'm not sure if he'll be able to walk out of there alive," the man said helplessly. "We have lived in the mountains all our lives and haven't been exposed to the outside world. I couldn't differentiate between good and bad, so I was too afraid to reveal myself in front of him..."

As soon as Lin Qian heard this, tears began to roll from her eyes. She was tempted to run straight into the gorge at that moment and look for Li Jin.

However, the hostel owner's daughter continued to analyze the two brothers. Her instincts told her that something wasn't right.

"Ningxiang..."

"Miss Lin, I know you are anxious, but it's getting dark outside and it's impossible for us to head into the gorge at this time. Besides, no one has ever gone to the center of the gorge and I'm not sure what is in there. No matter how much you want to go, you need to resist for at least tonight," the hostel owner's daughter warned in seriousness. "Don't do anything reckless."

After hearing this, Lin Qian nodded her head. If she was on her own, she would probably take the risk. But, she was here with someone else, so she had to take this woman's safety into consideration as well.

"In that case, be good and get some sleep. You need to conserve some energy for tomorrow."

Lin Qian did as told...

...

8pm.
