"Why don't you pretend to take the bait and go undercover?" Ye Lingfeng suggested with a grin.
Before Qin Lie could respond, Zhouzhou imdiately shook her head, looking a bit unhappy. "No way!" She glared at Ye Lingfeng. "Sharp Tongue Daddy, you're just trying to get my dad in trouble!"
Hearing this, Ye Lingfeng huffed, "All you do is protect him."
"Then I'll help him myself!" he said indignantly.
Zhouzhou promptly clung to his arm, her expression tense. "Sharp Tongue Daddy isn't allowed to go either!"
Seeing her like this, Ye Lingfeng felt a bit better inside. He glanced at Qin Lie, eyes full of challenge.
Qin Lie ignored him and spoke, "Actually, it might be fine if I go. If you all follow , we can find the place. That way, it'll be easier to locate the person we're looking for."
"Ha." As soon as Qin Lie finished speaking, Ye Lingfeng scoffed coldly. "Then we'll just have one more person to rescue, right?"
Qin Lie wasn't upset; he calmly asked, "Then what do you suggest?"
Ye Lingfeng picked Zhouzhou up and placed her in the chair across from him. He tapped the table and said, "Like I said before, I'll go in your place."
After saying that, he looked at Zhouzhou. "Let finish first."
Zhouzhou had no choice but to swallow her words, puffing up her cheeks as she hugged her little chubby arms.
She wanted to see what he had to say. Regardless of what he said, she wouldn't agree!
Ye Lingfeng continued, "I can disguise myself as you and go with them. I'm better at fighting than you, so it'll be safer for ."
"I think that sounds good." Zheng Yu nodded first, believing this was currently the best plan.
Qin Lie had no more comnts. He just looked at Ye Lingfeng and posed a question: "If he's already keeping an eye on , then he must have seen before."
"That's easy," Ye Lingfeng replied, completely unfazed. "I can change my appearance."
As he said this, Ye Lingfeng glanced at Zhouzhou. "You've seen my disguise skills."
Zhouzhou nodded; she had seen them.
She felt a bit conflicted. What her dad suggested was indeed a good idea. But she still felt worried.
She jumped off the chair and nervously hugged his leg, looking up at him with her little face. "But didn't Dad say that anyone who goes there, whether they listen or not, gets beaten up first?"
If Dad went undercover, he wouldn't be able to fight back imdiately.
She didn't want her dad to get hit.
Ye Lingfeng raised an eyebrow slightly. "Are you worried about ?"
Zhouzhou vigorously nodded her little head.
Imdiately, a smile crept into Ye Lingfeng's eyes. He pinched her little curls, saying, "Don't worry. During my first year in the Fourth Bureau, I trained to endure beatings. They won't be able to hit too hard; at most, I'll just get a surface bruise."
Hearing this, Zhouzhou felt even sorrier, tears welling up in her eyes as she looked at him.
"Ah." Ye Lingfeng pretended to sigh seriously, looking a bit troubled. "What should I do? My little girl cares too much for ; it's really hard to handle."
Despite his words, the expression on his face was quite smug.
Zheng Yu couldn't bear to watch.
This guy!
Qin Lie couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Seriously, don't scare Zhouzhou."
He didn't believe Ye Lingfeng was the type to just let himself be beaten up without a fight.
Ye Lingfeng clicked his tongue, unable to deny that he understood him pretty well.
He shot Qin Lie a glance, feeling a bit annoyed.
He really didn't want to be understood by him!
Looking down, he saw his little girl gazing up at him. Ye Lingfeng's mood lifted again.
Forget it; he wouldn't argue with him.
He decided to be straightforward. "I'm not lying to Zhouzhou about the beatings, but as long as I cooperate a bit, it shouldn't be a big problem."
"Alright, let's focus on the important things. Don't dilly-dally. Let's deal with those guys first, and then I'll make sure to return the favor a thousandfold."
So it really would involve so beatings.
Zhouzhou felt a bit disappointed and climbed onto his lap, hugging him tightly.
At that mont, Ancestral Master floated out and whispered sothing in her ear.
Upon hearing, Zhouzhou's eyes brightened. She quickly hopped back onto her chair, excitedly took out talisman paper and a vermilion brush, opened the talisman compendium, and turned to Ancestral Master. "Which page is it on?"
Ancestral Master indicated a page, and Zhouzhou imdiately flipped to it. Unfortunately, she hadn't unlocked that page yet; she was still ten pages away.
The later talismans were increasingly difficult to draw, and she could only learn the earlier ones to see the later ones.
No way! She had to finish drawing it before her dad went!
Want to harm her dad? Not a chance!
Seeing the little chubby girl huffing and puffing while drawing talismans, Ye Lingfeng didn't think much of it.
He continued with the plan. "Once I get there, I'll find a way to contact you. As for the technical side..."
He looked at Zheng Yu, but it was then that Qin Ren, who had been silent, said, "I'll handle it."
Ye Lingfeng raised an eyebrow at him.
Right, he rembered now.
Qin Ren was a top student from the computer science departnt; he was practically proficient in everything computer-related and had taken multiple courses, studying better than the regular students.
Ye Lingfeng nodded. "Okay, I'll leave it to you. If you need help, ask Zheng Yu. You two work together and move quickly."
"Alright."
"The remaining task is to catch the person. I'll have Wan Leng and the others assist from outside. I'll inform them shortly."
"What about , Dad?" Zhouzhou asked anxiously.
"You?" Ye Lingfeng thought for a mont. Knowing she would sneak out even if he told her not to, he figured it was better to take her along.
The little girl had grown so wings; she might not be able to pilot a plane, but she knew people who could.
If she was with Lan Tian, who knows what kind of trouble they could cause? It was better to just bring her along.
With that in mind, he said, "You can go with Wan Leng and the others. Stay outside to assist. After I find Huo Mingxuan, I'll send you a ssage, and we'll coordinate from there."
Zheng Yu nodded, having no objections.
Qin Lie also felt this plan was feasible and nodded in agreent.
"Okay, let's disperse for now."
"By the way." Ye Lingfeng turned to Zheng Yu. "Quickly send a ssage to Huo Mingxuan, telling him not to be so stubborn. He should yield when he needs to. It's not like we're asking him to do anything serious. Just pretend, he should be able to manage that, right?"
"Let's hope we won't be greeted by his body."
He didn't look like the kind of person who would be easy to deal with.
Just the sight of him made people want to punch him; he was really irritating.
Zhouzhou wholeheartedly agreed and nodded.
That was right! Little Skinny Pole was saying the sa thing!
As Zheng Yu imagined that scene, he felt a twinge of sympathy.
But he said, "If he's still being stubborn and hasn't touched the computer, then there's nothing I can do."
After all, once he sent the ssage, Huo Mingxuan had to be in front of the computer to see it.
That made sense.
Ye Lingfeng said, "Then it'll depend on his luck."
If he really wanted to court death, they couldn't help it.
But after all their effort to get him there, it wouldn't make sense if he couldn't last three days without dying.
Unless he really was that reckless.
anwhile, in northern Myanmar, a thug wiped his sweat and walked in, furious. "Boss, this guy is being stubborn. If this keeps up, let's just sell him off!"
At that point, they could bring him to the operating table and see if he was still so brave!
