Immediately, Li Baizhong's voice rang out again, without any surprise or questioning, only a steady, reassuring power:
"Understood. Where are you? Send them directly to my house. I'll take care of the rest."
Clean and neat, no nonsense!
This is exactly what Yu Bai expected!
"Okay! Thank you, Teacher Li!" Yu Bai felt relieved.
"Give the phone to their person in charge." Li Baizhong added.
Yu Bai obeyed and handed the phone to Wang Yuejun: "Teacher Li asked you to answer the phone."
A hint of caution and doubt flashed across Wang Yuejun's eyes, but he still took the phone and said in a deep voice, "Hello? This is Wang Yuejun."
He gave his name, which in itself represented a threshold of trial and trust.
Li Baizhong's voice came from the other end of the phone, and it seemed that he just said something simple.
The next second, Wang Yuejun's tense cheek muscles relaxed instantly, and the strong vigilance and doubt in his eyes melted away like ice and snow.
Instead, there was a feeling of disbelief and astonishment, and... a deep sense of relief!
"Professor Li?!" Wang Yuejun's voice even had a barely perceptible tremor.
He gripped the phone tightly and responded repeatedly, "Yes, yes! Got it! We'll be there right away! Thank you! Thank you so much!"
After hanging up the phone, Wang Yuejun returned the phone to Yu Bai. The look in his eyes when he looked at her was completely different, full of gratitude and a sense of relief at having survived the disaster.
He said solemnly to Yu Bai and Yu Nian, "Thank you! I didn't expect... I really didn't expect..."
The world is neither big nor small.
Who would have thought that at this critical moment between life and death, he could get in touch with an old acquaintance through two young strangers.
Speaking of Li Baizhong’s elder brother Li Wanshan, he was his former leader!
This is simply a way out from a desperate situation!
The oppressive atmosphere in the car was swept away.
"Let's go, Third Brother, to Teacher Li's house." Yu Bai quickly adjusted his mood and said to Yu Nian.
Although Yu Nian didn't fully understand the connection, he saw that things were taking a turn for the better, so he immediately nodded and started the truck.
The truck started again and drove along the country road towards Li Baizhong's studio.
After safely sending Wang Yuejun and the other two to Li Baizhong's house and watching them being properly taken in, Yu Nian and Yu Bai did not stay for a moment.
Yu Nian drove the truck and quickly left the area.
As the car drove on the return journey, the brother and sister looked at each other and saw the same tacit understanding in each other's eyes.
Everything that happened today, about rescuing people by the river, about those three people with special identities, about Teacher Li Baizhong's intervention...
Everything will be completely rotten in the stomach.
Just pretend that this thrilling episode never happened.
