The process of playing with the phone went smoothly.
Bai Xiaofei did not hesitate and applied for the card immediately. The boss was very enthusiastic because buying a mobile phone was quick and the amount of recharge for the mobile phone card was large.
Bai Xiaofei didn't have time to be vague with his boss. Instead, he walked quickly to a corner outside with his mobile phone, quickly logged into WeChat with his face recognition, and immediately opened Ximen Zhenzi's chat box to ask him how the situation was.
[Mako, if something really happens, you must tell me. I am not far away now, and I can go back immediately.]
If it were according to Ximen Zhenzi's usual temper, he would definitely ask Bai Xiaofei to go back without saying a word. And given Ximen Zhenzi's temper, after seeing Bai Xiaofei say this, he would definitely reply to him immediately.
However, Bai Xiaofei's expectations were dashed.
Because Ximen Mako never responded.
Bai Xiaofei was too embarrassed to let Lin Yao wait for him at the barbecue stall, so he had to quickly walk to the barbecue stall with his mobile phone.
Lin Yao ordered a lot of food, and the boss was very happy and served the dishes like crazy.
While eating the barbecue, Lin Yao kept looking to the side.
He muttered, "Where did Brother Xiaofei go? Why hasn't he come back in so long?"
He didn't know how long he waited until he saw a familiar figure among a group of people. Lin Yao stood up happily and waved at him.
Bai Xiaofei walked over quickly with a smile on his face.
Looking at the table full of delicious food, he had no appetite.
Lin Yao moved the barbecues in front of Bai Xiaofei and said, "Brother Xiaofei, you must be hungry too, right? Eat something quickly. Are we going to travel later or go somewhere to rest for a while?"
"Lin Yao...I may have something to discuss with you."
Lin Yao frowned as he looked at Bai Xiaofei's serious expression.
He quickly put down what he was holding and asked, "Brother Xiaofei, if you have anything to say, just say it. I am also half your brother. And you are the captain of this operation, so I will listen to whatever decision you make."
Bai Xiaofei told Lin Yao about the Ximen family's affairs, and said helplessly: "Now I have bought a new phone, but Zhenzi has not replied to me. I am a little worried, so I thought about taking a taxi back to the Ximen family later. If I can save them, it may be a good thing."
Lin Yao suddenly became excited, "Then what are we waiting for? Why don't we go back now? If we are late, something might really happen to them, or they might be kidnapped, and you won't be able to find them."
Lin Yao didn't have time to continue enjoying the food, so he grabbed Bai Xiaofei and ran forward.
But before we paid for the newly ordered barbecue, the boss immediately stopped what he was doing and walked over quickly.
"Little brother, why are you walking so fast? Are you trying to dine for free? You haven't even paid for the food. It's not easy for us to run a small business. You can't frame us like this."
"I didn't want to dine for free, I just had something going on at home."
"If there is something going on at home, you have to pay for it."
Seeing that the two of them were about to have an argument, Bai Xiaofei immediately threw down two red bills. The boss took the money and immediately stopped talking. He put the money in his pocket and returned to his workstation.
Bai Xiaofei pulled Lin Yao aside and consoled him in a low voice.
"I decided to go later just in case. In order to avoid them being unharmed when we return, wouldn't that be a waste of time? And it will take them some time to deal with this matter. How can it be so fast?"
"Besides, you ordered so much food, eat slowly and leave when you are full. There is no rush."
"Are you really not in a hurry?"
Lin Yao frowned and looked worried.
To be honest, after knowing this, Lin Yao couldn't eat no matter how happy he was.
He is not a heartless person. Those people are all people he has met before. They are half family members and half friends. When something happens to them, Lin Yao and Bai Xiaofei feel the same and are equally worried.
Bai Xiaofei nodded, and comforted Lin Yao to sit down and eat slowly.
But he had no appetite. He held the phone in his hands, shaking nervously, waiting for the other party to send him a text message.
On the surface, Lin Yao was following Bai Xiaofei's instructions and tasting the food, but in fact his eyes were always on Bai Xiaofei.
He was actually also very worried about the situation of the Ximen family.
Time passes by every second.
Even until the barbecue on the table had grown cold and the ice in the drink had melted, Bai Xiaofei's phone didn't ring.
Lin Yao knew that waiting any longer would not work, so he immediately grabbed Bai Xiaofei's hand and prepared to leave.
"Brother Xiaofei, what are you waiting for? So much time has passed, let's not wait any longer and go back directly. Anyway, we have to go back and it will take time to get there. Wouldn't it be a good opportunity to go back and find out about their situation? If they are okay, we can just set off again. It's not a big deal to spend a few hundred dollars."
When Bai Xiaofei was about to agree, his cell phone rang.
He opened it with surprise.
It turned out to be a video call from Ximen Mako.
However, Ximen Zhenzi did not reply to his WeChat message, but directly called him via video. Could it be that the Ximen family has been conquered?
Bai Xiaofei took a deep breath nervously.
Lin Yao was watching nervously from the side.
Finally, Bai Xiaofei connected the video, he closed his eyes and took deep breaths over and over again, just to avoid opening his eyes and seeing something he didn't want to see.
"Xiao Fei, what's wrong with your eyes? Why are you closing your eyes and not talking?"
A familiar voice came from the phone.
Bai Xiaofei raised his eyelids in surprise and looked at Ximen Zhenzi who was on the other end of the phone.
Ximen Mako disagrees.
Sitting behind Ximen Zhenzi were the chief elder and several managers of the Qi family.
After seeing that they were safe and sound, Bai Xiaofei immediately raised the corners of his lips and smiled: "You are all okay."
"It must be okay. You called us ahead of time to tell us. If something happened to us, we would be really stupid."
Ximen Mako smiled helplessly.
The Great Elder praised Bai Xiaofei from the side and back, "It's a good thing you called us right after you encountered the problem! You don't know... how cunning those two people were in trying to imitate you and Lin Yao and get in. But they have been captured by us and put in the dungeon, so don't worry."
"That's good. If you are all okay, Bai Xi and I will continue on our journey after a night's rest."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work! Mr. Bai, please remember that no matter what happens, we are behind you and we will always support you!"
"Remember! Keep in touch. Otherwise, we won't know what's going on between us. If something tricky happens, it will be hard to deal with."
