Chapter 2231
Peter Pan's appearance was something else that seemed out of this world.
Jiang Ning felt as if he had opened a Pandora's box. No one could predict what was going to pop out of the box next.
"Professor Lu Jing will let me know if he's discovered something important." Jiang Ning shook his head. "Keep an eye on him
and provide him with everything that he needs." "Yes, sir!" Huang Yuming nodded.
"I'll head home now." The look in Jiang Ning's eyes softened. "The baby's due soon. I'm afraid I can't leave Donghai now."
Everything seemed to be happening all at the same time.
Yet, his child's birth was his top priority.
Jiang Ning's most important mission right now was to ensure the safety of both his wife and the baby.
Huang Yuming and the others had done the necessary as well, deploying numerous men and stationing them across the whole
of Donghai as well as the areas surrounding the Lin family's bungalow to ensure that nothing would happen to the family.
"Don't worry. Children are blessings from the gods. Everyone in Donghai looks forward to the baby's arrival. It's something worth
celebrating."
"Sure." Jiang Ning didn't say another word. Instead, he hurried back to the Lin family bungalow.
The only thing that he wanted to do right now was to stay by the side of the woman that he was in love with and wait for his baby
to be born. Everything else that could afford the wait would have to wait. Everything had been prepared. He had gotten the best
doctors and the best nurses on standby. The most powerful man in this world was by Lin Yuzhen's side now, ensuring her and
the baby's safety.
"It's coming."
They were days away from when the baby was going to be due. Lin Yuzhen could feel it. She knew that the baby was on its way,
even though she couldn't feel any movement in her belly right now.
It had been a tough journey. She had nearly died and nearly lost the chance to meet her own baby. She treasured her baby even
more now.
"That's right. We're going to meet the little fellow soon."
Jiang Ning's arms circled Lin Yuzhen's belly gently. He could sense the baby inside Lin Yuzhen's womb. It was responding to
him, its tiny palm pressed against the side of the womb. Their hands were almost touching.
What a wondrous feeling.
Meanwhile, Mr Lang had put on another face.
He would change his mask immediately after every encounter with Jiang Ning. The new world was filled with numerous
advanced technologies that he did not quite understand.
All he knew was that as long as Jiang Ning had seen his face, the man would have a way to locate his whereabouts. That wasn't
what Mr Lang wanted.
He was wearing the face of an Asian right now. He was used to these features. He sat on an elevated pedestal in a grand hall.
Below him were men with looks of complete subservience and devotion on their faces.
Their eyes were glazed over. It was as if they had been drained of their very souls and had lost their wills. They were but
servants who answered to Mr Lang's command.
"Are you certain?" Mr Lang narrowed his eyes. "The baby is due within these few days?"
"We're certain. It'll be born five days later," said one of the men. "We are not far from Donghai. Jiang Ning would never guess
that we're here, waiting to give him the
final fatal blow!"
Mr Lang laughed. His features twisted hideously and took on an almost serpentine appearance.
"Someone who has not experienced
the loss of a loved one would never risk everything to find the Longevity Pond. Life is but suffering. You should suffer what I have
suffered so that you may truly understand me." Mr Lang rose to his feet A strange and almost mesmerizing smile appeared on
his face. "Prepare yourselves. We're going to present him with a great gift when his baby is born!"
The look in Mr Lang's eyes was distant. He wished desperately that he didn't have to resort to this. He never wanted to return to
the secular world or meet his old
friends. He never wanted trouble or to get himself involved with these troublesome fellows.
But he had been left with no choice.
"I'm sorry, Jiang Ning. I need you to do something for me and this is the only way I can get you to do it. Hahahahaha!"
