"This is very troublesome," Su Mu sighed.
I know it's troublesome. No matter what, we've already lost a step. It's very difficult to come up with a plan to deal with Biyuan in the next two days.
After all, no matter what, the other party has Sun Zichen and Lu Jing in their hands.
If they are not careful, they could both die.
I don't want to see this happen.
Sister Jing absolutely cannot die!
Thinking about this, I suddenly realized something terrifying.
Su Mu turned to look at me, noticed my expression was off, and asked, "Dr. Lu, has something come to mind?"
The clouds on the distant horizon drifted slowly. I closed my eyes, feeling a lingering fear, and said, "I'm afraid Biyuan already knows we're here."
"Um?"
I said, "Think about it, if Biyuan was only targeting Jiangbei, this matter probably wouldn't have involved me, and Sister Jing wouldn't have been kidnapped by them. But Sister Jing was kidnapped anyway, what does that mean?"
Su Mu's expression also subtly changed. "This means that the mole has told Biyuan everything about us, including our cooperation, and they probably even know that you are unwilling to join Jiangbei."
I said, "I'm afraid that's why this mole pulled this stunt, making me suspect you from the start, and then revealing Biyuan's true purpose. If it weren't for Zhang Zhihao, I probably would have continued to suspect you. Maybe I'm overthinking it, but this is something we have to be wary of."
Su Mu nodded, "Indeed, the fact that this mole knows so much about us means that he might be right next to us."
I said, "In short, we can't do anything that exposes our operations right now, lest this mole tip us off."
Su Mu said with a wry smile, "To be honest, Dr. Lu, I was even a little suspicious just now that you and Biyuan were working together to scam Jiangbei."
I sneered, "I don't have time to play these kinds of games with you."
Su Mu raised an eyebrow. "That's true."
I said, "Since this mole has been watching us, let's make it look like this to him. No matter who this mole is, we have to create a false impression for him so that we can regain the initiative we missed."
Su Mu asked, "Do you have a solution?"
I replied decisively, "No."
...
In the evening, I returned to Zhang Zhihao's house and saw Mu Xiaoyu cooking.
Zhang Zhihao asked, "Brother Lu, how did your discussion with Su Mu go?"
"Yes, have you come to a conclusion? What should we do?" Fei Lichao asked anxiously from the side.
I said, "It's not convenient for me to tell you the specifics. Su Mu will convene a committee meeting tomorrow to determine the specific implementation details."
Zhang Zhihao nodded slightly, understanding what I meant.
Fei Lichao was furious. "What kind of meeting is this at a time like this! Lu Jing will be dead if we stay any later!"
I said, "Old Fei, we can't rush this. Since the people from Biyuan want to meet and negotiate with Su Mu, it means that Sister Jing's life won't be in any danger in the next two days..."
"What do you know?!" Fei Lichao roared. "This kind of kidnapping for negotiation is the most ridiculous thing ever. If they wanted peaceful negotiations, they could have just sent a message. Why would they need to kidnap Lu Jing? It's obvious that those bastards are plotting to kill us! If we go there the day after tomorrow, they'll probably drop a bomb! Negotiations? What a load of crap!"
Fei Lichao's words left me speechless.
I was well aware of what he was saying, but Sister Jing is now in their hands, and they have the upper hand. We have no choice but to do as they say.
Even if there are traps, they can only rush over, because it concerns the lives of Sister Jing and Sun Zichen.
All we can do is try to find a breakthrough point in this process.
Looking at the furious Fei Lichao, I didn't know how to calm him down. I was also very anxious, wishing I could just rush into Biyuan and storm in and out three times, but was that realistic?
Fei Lichao paced back and forth in the living room, his brows furrowed, and finally said, "No way, I'm going to Biyuan today!"
When Zhang Zhihao and I saw him running towards the door, we quickly stood up and grabbed him.
"Old Fei, that's enough!" The two of us pulled him back and threw him onto the sofa.
Zhang Zhihao said helplessly, "Brother Fei, your impulsiveness won't solve anything."
"What else can we do? Are we really going to have to wait until the day after tomorrow?!" Fei Lichao roared.
I didn't know what to say for a moment.
Knock knock knock.
At that moment, there was a knock on Zhang Zhihao's door.
Zhang Zhihao glanced at Mu Xiaoyu, who came out of the kitchen, and said, "Xiaoyu, go open the door."
"Okay." Mu Xiaoyu nodded and went to the door to open it.
I was keeping an eye on Fei Lichao, so I didn't know who was outside the door. However, when Mu Xiaoyu opened the door, the voice coming from outside surprised me.
"Did I get the wrong person? Is Lu Xiaonan here?"
I turned my head and immediately saw a familiar figure standing outside the door.
"Lu Yun!" I was stunned, not understanding why this girl was here.
Upon hearing my voice, Lu Yun pushed Mu Xiaoyu aside and rushed in, her face full of anger. She shoved me in the chest with both hands, and caught off guard, I stumbled back a few steps.
Lu Yun glared at me angrily, "Lu Xiaonan, where's my sister!"
I frowned, glanced at Fei Lichao who was equally puzzled, and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Lu Yun walked up to me, grabbed my collar, and looked up at me, asking, "Stop talking nonsense and tell me, where's my sister!"
I frowned and asked, "Who told you about this?"
Lu Yun angrily said, "No one told me! I overheard it myself! Lu Xiaonan, what did you promise me when you left school? You said you would protect my sister, but what about now! My sister has disappeared, where is she!"
I reached out to touch her, but she slapped my hand away.
I said, "Don't be impulsive. We're trying to figure out a solution for Sister Jing's situation..."
"What kind of solution are you talking about? You managed to lose my sister in a place like this, and you expect me to believe you! Tell me right now, where exactly is she?!"
Even if I told you, what could you do about it?
"Nonsense! I'm going to save my sister!"
I stared at the girl's anxious eyes and said, "I also want to save your sister, but none of us can get into where she is right now. How are you going to save her?"
"If I can get in here, do you think there's anywhere I can't get in!" Lu Yun said angrily. "Lu Xiaonan, you'd better tell me now, or if anything happens to my sister, I'll chop you up first!"
