Transmigrating: I Married the Male Protagonist’s Uncle Chapter 1061 - Words Cannot be Spoken Carelessly

Chapter 1061: Words Cannot be Spoken Carelessly

“Have a good rest. Leave the rascal’s matter to me. I guarantee that I’ll hand a lively Ling Xiaoqi over to you.” Huo Ci looked at the woman’s startled expression, her thin chin, and her palm-sized face. His chest felt tight as he held his breath.
“Huo Ci.” Seeing that he was about to leave, Nangong Lengyu stopped him and said, “Go change into dry clothes first. If you collapse, who will look for Xiaoqi?”
Huo Ci thought to himself, the kid has a father and a mother. As a grandfather, is his purpose to look for the child for them? However, when he met the woman’s worried gaze, he swallowed his words. Yes, he owed the three of them. “Okay.”
Nangong Lengyu hugged the heat pack and draped a blanket over herself as she was still shivering from the cold. She did not know what was wrong with her. She had only been drenched by the rain, so how did she end up like this? After a long while, she felt her body warm up.
After about 20 minutes, dazzling lights could be vaguely seen on the surface of the sea, making the surface of the sea sparkle. It was very beautiful. Even though they were far away, they could faintly hear the lively music on the ship.
The battleship was several times faster than the cruise ship and soon caught up with them. The radio began to shout for the ship to stop and be inspected.
Huo Ci was anxious. Seeing that the battleship was not going to intercept them, he shouted repeatedly for them to stop. However, the cruise ship showed no signs of stopping. Instead, it sped up. If they continued forward, they would reach the open sea.
If the cruise ship reached the open sea, even if it entered an illegal zone, it would be Bai Han’s territory. It would be impossible to intercept the ship for inspection.
“Song Shu, why are you wasting your breath on them? Hurry up and stop them!” Huo Ci’s gaze was dangerous as he growled at him. “If my grandson loses even a strand of hair, I’ll make Bai Han pay with his life!”
“Calm down, Sixth Master.” Song Shu smiled mockingly. “I’m sure you know what kind of person Bai Han is. If we use extreme means to anger him, we won’t get anything. If he doesn’t want us to search the ship, do you think he will be afraid of me with the battleship?”
They were about to enter Bai Han’s territory. The people in the lawless zone that he was in charge of were all criminals and didn’t care about their lives. Even if an aircraft carrier came, they wouldn’t be afraid.
“If you shout like that, will he obediently let us search the ship?” Huo Ci’s eyes burned with anger as he rushed over and snatched the radio announcer’s microphone away. “The ship in front, listen up. We’ve received a tip that there are criminals on your ship who are trying to sneak out of the country. Stop immediately, or we’ll start bombing.”
The ship in front slowed down, and the warship soon blocked their way.
The storm continued to grow larger, sweeping up huge waves that reached the skies. The sound of the wind blowing was like the howling of an owl.
On the deck stood an exquisite octagonal pavilion.
The man was standing under the pavilion. He was tall and slender, his slim and fair fingers holding a glass of champagne as he leaned lazily against the side of the boat. His long and narrow peach blossom eyes were sparkling, and the ends of his eyes were slightly raised, making him look even more seductive.
“What brings General Song and Sixth Uncle here in the middle of the night?” Bai Han glanced at the two people on the deck. He waved the champagne in his hand at them and drank it in one gulp with a smile.
“Bai Han, someone on your boat kidnapped my grandson.” Huo Ci did not waste his breath on him since he had only met Bai Han twice. Although, he had attended the funeral when his father died.
The second time was after Bai Han had taken over half of the underground forces in the Jiang Nan province and became the leader of the underground forces, he went to congratulate his nephew.
“The people on my ship are all my brothers, and I do business with a clean conscience. Sixth Uncle, don’t malign others.” Bai Han frowned slightly. Whether he smiled or not, his long and narrow eyes always carried a fox-like cunningness.
He respected him and called him Sixth Uncle, but he didn’t think that he would let them off so easily because of what happened in the past. His father’s death was all because of them.
His father was part of the triads and was born from a humble family. Was he not worthy enough to hang out with the rich and powerful families? Even though his father helped them take over half of the Jiang Nan province and stabilized the political situation, he did not receive any thanks.
Before his death, his father had held his hand and made him swear that he would not betray Huo Ci and his brothers. But why? Why should he help them stabilize the situation and be their lackey? When they wanted him to do something for them, they would throw him a bone. Otherwise, they would just get rid of him anytime.
“Nephew, my grandson calls you uncle.” Huo Ci looked at him. “If you are not willing to let me look for him, don’t blame me for being rude to you.”
“Sixth Uncle, it’s not right for you to accuse innocent people and to scare them. If they aren’t on my ship, how are you going to compensate me for my losses?” Bai Han asked with a smile.
“I’ll compensate you with the entire north region. Do you dare to accept it?” Huo Ci’s face was cold and dark. There was a dangerous look in his eyes, and there were faint sparks flying in all directions.
“Sixth Uncle, you can’t say such things carelessly.” For so many years, Bai Han had always wanted to expand his influence to the north. When that time came, all the underground forces in China would belong to him, and no one would be able to restrain him anymore. Even the president of China would have to give him face.
But after all these years, his power had never been able to penetrate into that region and he had always been suppressed. He knew full well that it was his uncles who didn’t want him to reach the north. So he changed his strategy, he reached out to the world instead.
Song Shu had only driven a cruiser over. If he wanted to, there would be a battleship coming over soon to surround them. He could even capture them all and kill them here. No one would know that they had died in his hands.
But no, he was a sentimental person. Compared to the others, this Sixth Uncle in front of him still had some conscience. At his father’s funeral, he came to offer his condolences. When he ascended to his current high position, he came to celebrate with him.
“Nephew, you also know that my grandson’s father is Jun Shiyan.” After Huo Ci said that, he could clearly see the change in his expression. He continued, “The reason why you can’t get the powers you want is because many of them are under his control.”
The entire underground forces in the north were divided and balanced as he had a good grasp of it. It looked like a plate of loose sand, but in reality, it was all under his control. No one could think of leaving, and if anyone wanted the forces in the north, they had to ask him first..
