Fight First, Then Save Them

Suddenly, I thought of a question.

I looked at Chang Shuai and narrowed my eyes.

When I entered the Doctor's laboratory earlier, Ye Jinghong had been waiting outside. But when Guiguzi and I came out together, I hadn't seen Ye Jinghong. And Yang Jian—he should have been outside too, not wandering off.

It was my fault too. At the time, I had only been focused on talking to Guiguzi and overlooked that.

Of course, I understood that I had considered it perfectly normal, so I hadn't paid it much attention. My attention had been on Guiguzi, and what he talked about had drawn me in.

"Where is she now? Is she in your hands?" I asked in a low voice.

They wouldn't have shown me that video for no reason. They wanted to drive a wedge between Ye Jinghong and me. More likely, Ye Jinghong had already fallen into their hands.

Chang Shuai hurriedly shook his head. "No, we didn't touch her. She left on her own, with that three-eyed guy. My people saw them leave. They said the two of them seemed to be in a hurry. I'm curious too—what could be so urgent that they would leave without a care for you?"

I bit my lip. This was indeed abnormal.

If Chang Shuai wasn't lying, then they might really have run into something urgent.

Otherwise, with Ye Jinghong's personality, she wouldn't have abandoned me so easily.

"Your people had been following them all along?" I asked.

Chang Shuai shook his head. "We lost them. They seemed to have noticed someone following them. I don't know what method they used, but they shook my people off."

I frowned. Then he added, "But you don't need to worry. As long as they're in Yanxu, Old Man Tianshu can find them."
