Early the next morning.
At Dong Xuebin's instruction, Yu Meixia began calling to report the case. Since her husband had met with trouble in the county's outer suburbs, where Jin Di Mountain Villa was also located, she first called Chengguan Police Station.

Yu Meixia looked at him gratefully. "Thank you."
