Randolph knew that if he cooperated with the government agents now, he might be able to catch Xu Yun and Gu Guolong before they escaped from New York.
However, he wouldn't cooperate with the government agents. The reason was simple. People in this line of work preferred to deal with grudges by themselves. Moreover, if Randolph helped the government to catch Gu Guolong, he wouldn't be able to catch him. Forget about the freedom to sell marijuana in Brooklyn, the one billion US dollars would probably go down the drain.
Humans were selfish creatures, especially those who prioritized profit. They would prioritize profit over everything else.
Randolph would rather deal with the government himself than leave the chance to catch Gu Guolong to the government. As long as he could survive this period, he wouldn't let go of the two young men who dared to trick him and Gu Guolong even if he had to travel all over the world.
Randolph was invited to have tea with the government agents, while Xu Yun and Bai Xiaoye took the opportunity to leave New York with Gu Guolong. After they docked the boat, they immediately took a taxi to the parking lot where they parked their cars. Taking advantage of the dark and windy night, they drove back.
From now on, Xu Yun did not dare to delay even a minute. Every minute he delayed meant that he would be pursued by the American agents a minute earlier. He did not want to act out a real-life version of The Fast and the Furious. He was not driving a GT-R, nor was he driving an SRT-8. His little broken car could not withstand the torment in the movie.
"How is Qiya?" Gu Guolong was still in danger, but he couldn't help but worry about his daughter's safety.
Bai Xiaoye didn't want Xu Yun to be distracted by driving, so she turned around and explained to Gu Guolong, "Don't worry, your daughter is fine. She's waiting for your good news in Vancouver."
Obviously, Gu Guolong didn't believe this girl's words.
"Mr. Gu, a lot has happened recently." Xu Yun said, "Luckily, Qiya is fine. Miss Celine from Dark Angel is taking care of her for me. I believe she's safe."
Hearing that his daughter was in the hands of the Dark Angel, Gu Guolong could no longer sit still. "Why is she with Celine?! Everyone in Canada knows what kind of woman Celine is. If Celine gets together with her, she'll definitely … definitely … "
"Old Master Gu, you're thinking too much," Xu Yun said. "You know what the circle is like now. If I want to find Gu Qiya in Canada, I can only go through the Dark Angel. "
"How can you look for them? The Dark Angels and the Great Circle are enemies." Gu Guolong was so shocked that he was speechless.
"Grandpa, can you stop worrying?" Bai Xiaoye was getting impatient. "Since my brother said that your daughter is fine, then don't worry. Why do you have so many questions? If you don't believe us, then think of a way to take care of your daughter yourself! Do you know how much effort we put in to get the Dark Angel to help us find your daughter? He risked his life to ask for help, but you actually don't appreciate it and don't feel at ease. "
Gu Guolong blushed at Bai Xiaoye's words.
That was indeed the case.
"Xiaoye, how can you talk to Old Master Gu like that?" Xu Yun stopped Bai Xiaoye from complaining and explained to Gu Guolong, "Old Master Gu, I know that I didn't think things through, but I really had no choice. In Vancouver, other than knowing Celine through Matthew, I don't have any connections to help me deal with this."
Gu Guolong nodded, embarrassed.
"Old Master Gu, this happened because of me, so I'll take responsibility until the end. No matter what happens, as long as I, Xu Yun, am still alive, I won't just stand by and watch you and Qiya fall into danger. "Xu Yun was a man, and men had to have a sense of responsibility.
"Thank you." Gu Guolong was about to cry. "I'm really sorry for making you work so hard for us …"
"I'm the one who's sorry." Xu Yun felt really guilty about the series of problems caused by Matthew's incident. The Gu Family originally had nothing to do with this incident, but now, they were in such a predicament. Deep regret couldn't be erased from Xu Yun's heart.
Bai Xiaoye tried to smooth things over. "Alright, it's all in the past. What should've happened was something none of us wanted to happen, but we had to face it. It's already pretty good that things have come to this point. Don't think too much about it."
"You're right …" Gu Guolong nodded. Only then did he realize that he didn't even know the girl in front of him. "Xu Yun, may I know who this lady is …"
"My sister, Bai Xiaoye," Xu Yun said.
"Your sister?!" Gu Guolong was stunned.
"She's my biological sister." Xu Yun added. He was afraid that the old man would misunderstand. In this day and age, a goddaughter was a mistress, and a godsister was a lover. It was all because of a certain group of people who didn't know how to behave properly and tainted so many beautiful names in order to avoid being noticed.
In this day and age, those who weren't afraid of being misunderstood were either big bosses or officials who could cover the sky with one hand. Ordinary people wouldn't dare to have a goddaughter or godsister. They would all be spread around.
Gu Guolong's expression was even more incredulous. If they were biological sisters, why didn't they have the same surname? What's going on?
Xu Yun didn't know how to explain, so he added, "We have the same father but different mothers. I just found out."
"Is there a need for you to explain so much?" Bai Xiaoye was a little unwilling to talk about her private matters in front of outsiders. Gu Guolong was definitely an outsider in front of her. It was already good enough that she didn't hate him when they met for the first time. It was normal that she didn't have a good impression of him.
Gu Guolong said awkwardly, "No … there's no need. Miss Bai, thank you so much for troubling you this time. "
"Don't thank me. If you want to thank someone, you should thank my brother. If it wasn't for him, I definitely wouldn't have come." Bai Xiaoye was really honest. If it wasn't for Xu Yun, Bai Xiaoye wouldn't have come for this kind of stimulation no matter how much money was offered.
Xu Yun felt that Bai Xiaoye was too talkative, so he said, "You sleep for a while first. I'm too tired from driving tomorrow morning, so you can replace me. We don't have time to waste now. The earlier we leave the country, the safer it will be. We won't have time to park before we reach Seattle. Take the time to rest. "
"After we reach Seattle, how are we going to return to Vancouver?"
"You don't have to worry about that. I'll contact Celine and ask her to tell her father to arrange for someone to pick us up." Xu Yun said.
Actually, even if they reached Vancouver, it wasn't over yet. If the US government couldn't find Matthew, they would definitely look for Gu Guolong and Gu Qiya. Xu Yun could only bring them to Hua Xia for this matter to be resolved. They must stay out of the limelight.
As long as Hua Xia announced to the public that Matthew had returned to the family and was loyal to Hua Xia, the US government wouldn't be able to do anything. At that time, Gu Guolong and Gu Qiya would be really safe.
But before that, they had to be careful. As for when the country would announce Matthew's news, it wasn't up to Xu Yun to decide. Matthew was a news figure, and the country might not take any action to expose him for the sake of his safety.
