Xia Chu Yi's other hand extended to his belt and felt a bulge. He then let out a sigh of relief.

Since the first two times they were blocked by Yang Bin, Xia Mu had been very careful on their journey. She had bought a rubber sheath and buckled it on her belt. Inside was her phone and a small knife, just in case she needed it.

Unexpectedly, he really had to use it.

Normally, this thing would be covered by the t-shirt. If one didn't search carefully, it would be impossible to find.

It seemed that their captors weren't prepared for them and didn't search them thoroughly before throwing them into this place.

Xia Chuyi first took out his phone, then placed it face down, then used his body to block it. After that, he quickly sent a message with his phone.

Now, she was extremely glad that she had bought the cheapest kind of keyphone for saving money, instead of the popular touch-screen phone. Otherwise, she wouldn't even be able to touch the keyboard, let alone send out a message.

Moreover, she was glad that her phone only had the number of the big bloke on it. She did not need to choose the wrong number to send it to him!

Save me!

After sending the text message, Xia Chu Yi used his memory to find the positioning system on his phone. Then, he muted his phone and the sound of the call faded. He dialed the big bloke's number, then put his phone back into its hiding place and wrapped the knife in his palm.

After doing all this, she stealthily adjusted her breathing and silently prayed in her heart: Tall One, don't let me down!

What Xia Chu didn't know was that due to her and Mu Lele's disappearance, Chi Ao had his men search everywhere. The Yang family's home was the main location of the search, it had been searched multiple times already.

In the command center, Chi Ao was covered in cold air. None of the living creatures dared to approach within three meters of him, fearing that they would be frozen into icicles.

"You haven't found it yet?" Sir Shen and Mu Lele's eldest brother, Mu Yunfei, were the only two people who dared to stay in the command center.

Shen Zhi was afraid that Chi Ao would do something irrational because of the incident on the first day of Xia, and Mu Yunfei wanted to get news of his precious sister as soon as possible.

His sister, Mu Lele, had already disappeared for an entire night. No! To be exact, she had been missing for twenty hours and thirty-eight minutes!

He knew yesterday that he received a phone call from the driver and that he didn't receive his sister at the school gate. He knew that something was wrong, so in fear of worrying his family, he immediately called his parents and told them that he hid it from him after taking his sister to his place for the night. It was almost 2 in the afternoon and there was still slightly more than 2 hours until his sister's school term.

Just a moment ago, his younger brother, Yun Ze, had called to complain about him, saying that he had to personally pick up his sister from school after school!

"Why isn't there any yet …" Mu Yunfei angrily pounded on the table!

"Ding!" Chi Ao's personal phone rang. This crisp single syllable made the three men in the room subconsciously hold their breath.

Chi Ao quickly picked up his phone and realized it was a text sent by the 'little girl'. His breath tightened in excitement.

"Save me!"

The text message was really short. Adding the punctuation mark, it was only 5 bytes!

However, such a short message had given Chi Ao and the others hope!

And when the first day of summer came and that phone call came in, Chi Ao was both surprised and happy.

He was afraid that Xia Chu would expose his actions and cause the criminal to take revenge. He was happy that the little girl was indeed a woman that he had his eyes on. She was actually able to send a signal for help when they couldn't find her!

"It's them!" When Mu Yunfei and Shen Shang saw Chi Ao's expression, they immediately knew who it was. Their faces also revealed the same expression as Chi Ao, a mixture of pleasant surprise and worry.

Chi Ao signaled the two of them to be quiet, picked up the phone, and then quickly began positioning himself!

The location was indeed still at the Yang Mansion!

After many years of tacit understanding, Shen immediately understood what Chi Ao meant. He quickly went out to inform the people searching for the location and also reminded them to pay attention to the underground tunnels. The place where Mu Lele and Xia Chu Yi were probably hiding.

In fact, everything went so smoothly that he could only blame his luck on the first day of summer.

Yang Biao's underlings had indeed underestimated the two students, Xia Chu Yi and Mu Lele. They weren't on guard and had only taken their school bags. However, the area they were in had been specially set up for signal interference.

Yang Biao was trying to wear down the enemy's patience. He never wanted to escape, and he knew that there was no way for him to do so. Therefore, he returned to his own nest.

It was true that an old fox like Yang Biao was very cunning and would not only have one lair. However, a fox that was too shrewd would often be tricked into thinking that the most dangerous place was the safest place, and this most dangerous and safest place was still the place that he was most familiar with. Of course, he would choose this place to negotiate.

Time had almost passed and the other side was probably burning with anxiety. That was why Yang Biao had shut down the signal interference system. On the other hand, Xia Chuayi's text message and phone call had coincidentally been sent after the signal interference system had been switched off!

Not long after he picked up the phone, Yang Biao called.

The command center had already located Yang Biao's phone number. Chi Ao noticed that there was a distance between the two red dots on the screen. He signalled Sir Shen and Mu Yunfei to be silent as he picked up the phone.

"The person you want is in my hands." Yang Biao went straight to the point.

"Conditions." Chi Ao was also very straightforward.

He was very clear that Yang Biao had calculated the time to contact them. This was because this point had already been calculated to the point that both sides could endure.

At this time, if he deliberately dragged this matter out with Yang Biao, it would only incite his emotions. He might even make him do something intense to harm the hostage.

He couldn't afford the consequences. Similarly, the Mu family couldn't afford it either.

Moreover, as far as he was concerned, he wanted to know as soon as possible the situation between Xia Chu Yi and Mu Lele.

After hearing Chi Ao's words, indeed, Mu Yunfei gave Chi Ao a supportive look.

Shen Shang looked at Chi Ao with disapproval. He wanted to say something, but was stopped by a glance from Chi Ao. He could only swallow his words.

"Haha, you're quite straightforward. I like the way you feel!" Upon hearing Chi Ao's attitude, the tension in Yang Biao's heart immediately eased up.

The other person's impatience and weakness were what he wanted at the moment. This made him feel like he had stabbed a dead end!

A person holding the opponent's fatal acupoints was naturally the one who held the upper hand in the negotiations!

Thinking of this, Yang Biao was actually not in a hurry anymore.
