Chen Peiyue ultimately followed her father's advice.
Chen Ding had always taught her a saying from the martial world: great individuals do not get bogged down by minor details! Both Chen Ding and she had a common wish: to follow their ancestors' teachings and lead the Little Knife Society out of Feng Town.
As long as this goal could be achieved, both of them were willing to make sacrifices!
"Dad, be careful yourself."
"Don't worry, as long as the Little Knife Society still exists, nothing will happen to me."
Chen Ding smiled. Just as he had said earlier, the tradition of the Little Knife Society was to have only one leader. Those who sought them out were interested in the power of the Little Knife Society. Therefore, as long as the Little Knife Society remained, he would not be in mortal danger.
Chen Peiyue nodded and then turned to leave.
Watching his daughter's receding figure, Chen Ding suddenly sighed and murmured, "I hope they can truly protect you..."
On the other side, when Chen Peiyue arrived at the Sun Corporation, Hei Dao and his group had already left. Even the two men in black were tied up and stuffed into the trunk.
Looking at the mess before her, Chen Peiyue knew she was late.
But it didn't matter, she still had her phone. Chen Peiyue thought and took out her new mobile phone.
She had gotten it after resolving her misunderstanding with her father, thinking of it as a replacement for a tracker. If she had any worries, she could just call directly. This proved to be very useful.
She had already memorized the contact information of Li Chonglou and the others. She directly dialed Li Chonglou's number.
Li Chonglou, who was in the Shangjing District, was cautiously observing his surroundings and monitoring Ma San's movements. He was startled by the sudden ringing of his phone.
Moreover, it was a new number. Li Chonglou directly hung up and turned off his phone.
After hearing Chen Pao talk about advanced technology, he had become much more cautious. Answering a call at such a time might allow the other party to detect him with their equipment, putting Ma San in danger.
Besides, if someone truly needed him or wanted to ask for his help, they would have his number saved. Li Chonglou considered such unfamiliar numbers to be highly likely to be from telemarketers.
While he hung up decisively, Chen Peiyue on the other end was bewildered.
"Why did he reject it?"
She called back again, but this time it directly showed that the phone was turned off.
Chen Peiyue's initially warm heart grew a bit cold. She rarely used her phone and had always assumed that as soon as she dialed a number, the other party would know who she was.
"Perhaps he's busy with something right now?"
With her heart having grown much colder, Chen Peiyue finally found a way to comfort herself. Thinking about it this way, it was a highly probable scenario. After all, she didn't think she had offended him, so it was unlikely he wouldn't even answer her call.
Thus, Chen Peiyue dialed Yue Hai's number again.
This time, the call finally went through.
"Who?"
On the car heading out of Feng Town, Yue Hai answered an unfamiliar number with confusion.
"It's me, Peiyue."
"Ah, Xiao Yue?"
Yue Hai instantly sat up straight, very surprised by the person on the other end of the line.
If she had a phone to contact him earlier, how could Sen Lang tease him every day about his embarrassing moments!
But amidst his surprise, Yue Hai suddenly felt something was amiss. As the saying goes, unusual events often have hidden causes. Could something have happened?
Yue Hai quickly asked about the situation. The others also looked over with confusion or curiosity.
Yue Hai was first stunned, then his face lit up with joy, followed by pleasant surprise.
After he said a firm "Yes," he suddenly hung up and shouted to Gao Baisong, who was driving, "Old Gao, turn back!"
"What?"
Gao Baisong looked at the rearview mirror with a confused expression. Hei Dao and the others also couldn't help but ask.
"Is it Chen Peiyue? What did she say?"
Yue Hai grinned, "It's Xiao Yue. She said she wants to come with us! Didn't the boss say he wanted to recruit her before? Our mission this time might be completed ahead of schedule."
Joy immediately appeared on the faces of Hei Dao and the others. Even Gao Baisong, who was driving, couldn't help but say, "It's Xiao Yue. I haven't seen her in a long time either."
When Li Chonglou visited him earlier, he mentioned that Chen Peiyue felt guilty about his safety not being protected when he left without permission. Therefore, Gao Baisong had been looking for an opportunity to explain things to Chen Peiyue.
No one had foreseen the situation at that time, and it wasn't her fault.
"Hei Dao, squeeze in the back."
As Gao Baisong turned the car around, he directly gave up the front passenger seat. Hei Dao dared not complain. He couldn't possibly let a beauty like Chen Peiyue squeeze into the back.
After about ten minutes, they returned to pick her up. This was the first time Hei Dao and the other two met Chen Peiyue. She wasn't wearing a mask this time, and her ethereal beauty completely stunned all three of them!
Not to mention the Sun brothers sitting in the very back. Although they had stayed in Feng Town longer than others, Chen Peiyue rarely went out, so they had never seen her true face.
Their expressions at this moment were even more exaggerated than Hei Dao's group of three!
Yue Hai, on the other hand, was immune. Shortly after getting into the car, he couldn't help but inquire about the situation.
When Chen Peiyue said that she had temporarily left the Little Knife Society, Yue Hai immediately said, "Xiao Yue, don't worry. Brother Li will definitely give you a good position when he finds out!"
Upon hearing Li Chonglou's name, Chen Peiyue couldn't help but sigh, "He hung up my call. I don't know if he's busy or if he dislikes me."
"That can't be right?"
Yue Hai quickly made a call to Li Chonglou, but his phone was still off.
He couldn't help but comfort her, "Brother Li must be busy with something. Don't worry, he might like you rather than dislike you."
Yue Hai grinned. Chen Peiyue asked curiously, "You said Brother Li likes me?"
"Cough! Not that kind of liking. Brother Li likes us too."
Yue Hai was immediately startled. He dared not say such things. Li Chonglou's lack of interest in women was something not only he, but also Hei Dao and Gao Baisong knew. Only the Sen wolf brothers were unaware of this.
So, after Yue Hai finished speaking, Sen Lang immediately interjected, "No way, Brother Li is gay?"
Yue Hai chuckled and suddenly picked up his phone, "Sorry, I just recorded it. You can wait to explain it to Brother Li when we get back."
Sen Lang's face immediately turned grim. He reached out to snatch the phone, but Yue Hai quickly retracted it.
"Trying to destroy the evidence?"
"Damn it, you're breaking the rules!"
The atmosphere suddenly became relaxed. Chen Peiyue looked at the two of them through the rearview mirror, who weren't deliberately showing off. She felt a sense of inexplicable comfort. Only Hei Dao and Sen Bao, sitting in the back, had a headache.
These two were too much!
Although the Sun brothers had established their company in Feng Town, their mining area was not within Feng Town. It was in a mountain range three kilometers away from Feng Town.
Even though it was three kilometers away, it was still within the jurisdiction of Feng Town. Therefore, as they turned into the mountain, a sign was still erected outside, reading "Feng Town Mining Area."
