That night, Shu Xin slept and woke up. She looked at her phone countless times. It was not easy for her to stay up until dawn. Shu Xin got up, washed up, and changed her clothes. It was only 6: 30 when everything was done.
She waited for another half an hour. It was seven o 'clock.
Huo Yanqing had the habit of waking up early for morning exercises. He would definitely be up at this time.
Shuxin dialed Huo Yanqing's number. A few seconds later, a robotic female voice came through. "Hello, the number you have dialed is unavailable. Please try again later …"
Shuxin dialed a few times, but the result was the same.
Shuxin then dialed Song Li's number. The result was the same. His phone was turned off.
Shuxin's uneasiness grew stronger. Why was his phone turned off?
Did something happen?
Shu Xin remembered that before Huo Yanqing left, she had told her to look for Yang Ji if she needed anything. She immediately pulled up Yang Ji's number and dialed it. After a few rings, the call was connected.
Shuxin couldn't wait to ask, "Brother Yang, have you been in contact with Yanqing recently?"
"No, why?"
"Yanqing contacts me every day, but he didn't contact me last night. I called him and Song Li this morning, but their phones were turned off. Yanqing can't see. I don't know if something happened to him."
"… It should be fine."
Shuxin's mind was full of bad thoughts. "Do you think it's possible that Yanqing had a discussion with a client and the client wasn't satisfied with the outcome? So the client secretly played tricks on Yanqing? Or kidnapped him? "
"The Fifth Lord didn't go to Country Z for business."
"Huh?" Shuxin was stunned for a moment. "If it wasn't for business, then what was it for?"
"This … I …" Yang Ji stammered.
Shuxin was even more anxious. "Why did Yanqing go to Country Z?"
The other end was silent for two seconds. "The Fifth Lord went there to investigate something."
"What are you investigating?"
"… Investigate the explosion case five years ago."
Shuxin did not react for a moment. "What explosion?"
"It's the case where The Fifth Lord's father and two brothers died after the explosion."
Shuxin's heart tightened inexplicably. "Wasn't that an accident?"
"No, The Fifth Lord has been secretly investigating for the past few years. He found out that there was a traitor in the incident back then. The terrorist organization received the information and prepared an ambush in advance. That's why such a tragedy happened. The Fifth Lord left in a hurry this time because the spies he planted in Country Z received news that the terrorist organization from five years ago had reappeared. The Fifth Lord went there personally to investigate the truth of what happened back then. "
"Then will Yanqing be in danger?" Shuxin felt a little guilty when she asked this. How could a terrorist organization not be dangerous?
"… There will definitely be danger." Yang Ji paused and continued, "But Miss Shu, you don't have to worry too much. The people who went with The Fifth Lord this time are all his best subordinates. Chen Qiang is also going. He used to be the best fighter in the special forces besides The Fifth Lord and me."
"Since you're better than Chen Qiang, why don't you go?" Shuxin almost blurted out.
"The Fifth Lord asked me to stay and protect Miss Shu's safety."
Shuxin felt a wave of heat in her heart. "… I'm going to find Yanqing."
"Don't worry, Miss Shu. I'll try to contact The Fifth Lord and the others in the team."
"Okay, hurry up. I'll wait for your news."
