Li Beinian heard this as well and looked at Mu Xichen.
The man glanced at her, picked up his phone, and stood up.
Li Beinian immediately reached out and pulled him back. “Talk here.”
Mu Xichen held his phone and seemed to hesitate.
Li Beinian grabbed his hand and took his phone. “Give it to me!” Then, she turned on the speaker and asked T Jing, “What’s the situation with Ah Ye? Has he really been taken?”
T Jing fell silent for a moment, then said, “Sister-in-law, this matter…”
“Go ahead and speak.”
As soon as Mu Xichen’s indifferent voice fell, T Jing quickly replied, “Ah Ye had been taken some time ago. He’d been there for more than a week and safe till today, they suddenly moved him away.”
“Moved?” Mu Xichen frowned. “Where to?”
“I’m not sure for now. Even their people didn’t bring any electronic devices. I’m unable to locate them yet. I reckon… it’s a secret operation.” T Jing’s voice was slightly hesitant. “Or perhaps, my wiretap device has been discovered and they’ve become vigilant. They’re already preparing to defend against us and counterattack.” His voice faded as he continued, “If that’s the case, it’ll be troublesome, Brother Ah Ye…”
“No,” Li Beinian said firmly. “There’s no such thing. Have more confidence in yourself and continue watching. I reckon that they will contact your boss very soon. At that time, I will have to trouble you to follow up.”
T Jing felt much better after hearing this.
However, he found her confident tone rather unbelievable. “How would you know?”
Li Beinian glanced at Mu Xichen. The man met her gaze and answered T Jing, “Trust her. Continue to keep your eye on them.”
“Alright.”
T Jing put in his final word and the call was disconnected.
Just as Li Beinian had anticipated, Mu Xichen received a call at around 2 pm.
Bei Lun’s smug and sinister laughter came over the line. “We may commence, Mu.”
Li Beinian had been resting at home for the past few days and had postponed all her scheduled activities of course.
However, vacations always come to an end.
This particular afternoon, Li Beinian received an emergency call from the production team of Stinging Vine.
A top photography crew had arrived from overseas, and they were especially good at handling military photography.
However, this crew would not be staying in Xia Nation for long, so everyone had to seize the opportunity.
This news was all too sudden.
Li Beinian was still in a daze when Bo Chengcheng called and told her to pack up and go to the Imperial Capital.
As this team would only stay for a couple of days and leaving the day after tomorrow, Bo Chengcheng urged her.
After hurrying Li Beinian, she arrived shortly to pick her up.
Li Beinian felt that something was amiss and instinctively thought of Mu Xichen.
Mu Xichen looked very surprised when she told him about this. He hugged her reluctantly and kissed her affectionately before personally sending her to the airport.
Before Li Beinian got off the car, she looked at him deeply and said, “No matter what, you have to be careful.”
Mu Xichen’s heart sank for a moment. He looked at Li Beinian and nodded. “You too.”
