Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 686 - 679: Visiting Relatives

The conversation between the two people in front of the store immediately caught the attention of Leng Yichen and Wang Hai. They calmed down and listened intently, without missing a word of the conversation between the neighbor and the store owner.

"You’re talking about that person!" The store owner nodded and smiled, "He’s been here, he came just a couple of days ago. This time, he came with another person and bought much more than before. I asked him why he was buying so much, and he said that some relatives came over to his house recently, so he bought more to save trouble." The store owner lowered his voice and laughed, "He even bought a lot of sanitary pads this time, didn’t matter if it was for day or night use, he just picked the expensive ones. Isn’t it interesting for a big man like him to come and buy sanitary pads?"

Wang Hai cast a questioning look at Leng Yichen, asking if Bai Yiran’s menstrual period was around these days.

Leng Yichen shook his head, it wasn’t.

But it might not be Bai Yiran, it could be Yao Zhiqing, after all, there are two women there.

The two nodded and continued listening to the conversation between the store owner and the neighbor.

"Do you think that person is up to no good? He doesn’t look familiar, not someone from our town. Every time he comes to buy things from you, he buys a whole bunch." The neighbor nervously looked around, "Do you think he’s a criminal on the run hiding here? Or a kidnapper, holding a woman captive, otherwise why would he buy those women’s items?"

The store owner shivered, "Oh, stop saying that, it’s creepy. I don’t care who he is, I’ll just honestly do my business, I don’t want any unnecessary trouble."

Hearing this, both Leng Yichen and Wang Hai felt there was an eighty percent chance that Bai Yiran was held nearby.

Leng Yichen was very excited; he felt that Bai Yiran seemed to be very close to him!

The store owner and the neighbor had already begun to shift to the next topic when they looked down and saw five red banknotes.

The owner was momentarily stunned, looking at Wang Hai, who was holding the money in front of him, "What is this for?"

Wang Hai looked sincere, "Don’t overthink it. My brother and I are here from out of town looking for relatives. It’s been so long that we can’t quite remember where our relative’s house is. Please take this money, and can you tell me which direction the person you were just talking about went? He might be our relative."

The owner was a bit hesitant, tempted by the sight of the red banknotes. The neighbor nudged him, signaling him to take the money.

The store owner pointed in the direction of the mountain, "He always comes from that way and leaves that way too."

Saying this, the owner reached out to take the five hundred yuan in Wang Hai’s hand, but the money was held tightly and he couldn’t take it out.

The store owner frowned, what’s the meaning of this? Were they not planning to give it?

Wang Hai smiled, "My brother and I are here to give our relatives a surprise, so we hope you won’t mention today’s events to anyone."

With that, he let go, and the owner took the money, agreeing wholeheartedly. The neighboring onlooker became envious, and Wang Hai soon pulled out another five hundred yuan for him, reiterating the same request.

Having obtained the direction, Wang Hai and Leng Yichen did not delay further. Even though it was still raining heavily outside, they drove off.

The road was initially easy to traverse, but as they got closer to the mountain, it became more and more bumpy and muddy, eventually causing the car to get stuck in the mud. The path ahead was too narrow for the car to proceed, so they had no choice but to abandon the vehicle and continue on foot.

Before leaving, Wang Hai specifically removed the license plate and destroyed any evidence in the car that might reveal its origin. They didn’t want to alert anyone inadvertently.
