Cheng Feiâer stood up. âWhat do you want to do?â
âAll the team members participating in this exploration mission must have at least one person protecting them.â Ye Feng said as he took out his phone and called Lan Xingyue.
The call was quickly picked up. âHello, Mr. Ye, whatâs the matter?â
âWhere are you now?â
âI⦠Iâm at home. Whatâs wrong?â
âSend me your address.â
âWhat? You⦠What are you doing?â
Lan Xingyue seemed to have misunderstood something and hesitated.
Ye Feng felt that this woman was too arrogant, did she think that every man had improper thoughts about her?
âWe were followed today. Everyone who participated in this exploration mission is in danger.â
âIâll send someone to protect you now. Send me the locations of the other team members as well.â Ye Feng was too lazy to waste his breath on her, he simply described the situation.
Lan Xingyue was silent for a long time after she heard that. âWhoâs following us?â
âI donât know.â
âHow did you know that someone was following us?â
âI canât say.â
âWhat are they trying to do?â
âIâm not sure.â
âThen what do you know?â
âI know that if you continue to talk nonsense, you will die.â
In the end, Lan Xingyue still told Ye Feng the location of herself and the other team members.
Actually, even if she did not say it, Ye Feng could find out through Origin Mining.
However, he still wanted to inform her in advance.
After getting the address of these team members, Ye Feng called Feng Jianwu to his side. âIâll give you a mission now, go and protect this woman.â
Ye Feng gave her Lan Xingyueâs address.
âYes.â After Feng Jianwu received the address, she didnât ask any further and turned to leave.
Ye Feng kept the address of one of the exploration team members and gave the addresses of the others to Cheng Feiâer, asking the security team to send people to protect them.
In the end, he comforted Zhuang Xiaoqiao. âStay home. Donât go anywhere.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Zhuang Xiaoqiao knew the severity of the situation. She knew the danger of this matter, so she did not pester him to join in the fun.
After parting ways with Cheng Feiâer, Ye Feng rushed to the address in his possession.
This team member was called Zhou Changqing. Ye Feng had some impression of him, he was an introverted young man.
Although he was young, he was actually twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, a few years older than him.
Zhou Changqing was a local of Jiangzuo, his home was not far from where Ye Feng lived, and it would take about half an hour by car.
When Ye Feng found the place, he saw a multi-storied apartment building, it seemed to be quite old, as it was at least from the 70s or 80s.
Before he could go up, he saw Zhou Changqing coming back with a plastic bag.
Ye Feng immediately hid, he did not want to show himself for the time being.
He really wanted to see what those people hiding in the dark were up to.
Just as Zhou Changqing was about to enter the apartment building, a middle-aged woman suddenly shouted from behind him, âZhou Changqing, go to the antique street quickly. Your mother is in troubleâ¦â
Zhou Changqing stopped in his tracks and looked at the woman slowly. âWhat trouble did she cause?â
âYour mother broke a vase, and they want her to pay for it. Itâs a few million yuan, and sheâs arguing with them nowâ¦â The middle-aged woman rushed over breathlessly and briefly explained the situation.
Before she could finish her sentence, Zhou Changqing had already started running toward the antique street.
Ye Feng did not hesitate, he immediately followed.
The two of them soon arrived at the antique street.
It was already evening, and the streets were crowded with people. There were hawkers everywhere.
Zhou Changqing searched through the crowd and finally found his mother in front of an antique shop.
Before he could walk over, he heard the sound of an argument.
âIf you donât pay me for my vase today, Iâll call the people from the Office of Personnel to arrest you.â
âIf you dare to, then shout. A lousy vase costs three million? Why donât you rob people?â
âYo, you broke my vase and you still think youâre right? This vase of mine is a blue and white porcelain from the Yuan Dynasty. It has an expert appraisal report, and you still want to deny it.â
âI said I wouldnât look, but you insisted. When I picked it up to take a look, someone bumped into me from behind and I accidentally broke it. I suspect that you guys are in cahoots.â
âHehe, you said that we are in cahoots. Do you have any evidence? If you donât have evidence, youâre slanderingâ¦â
Zhou Changqing pushed through the crowd and walked in. He saw his mother being pulled by a woman of similar age, her hair a little messy.
He hurriedly went over to separate the two of them. âMom, what exactly happened?â
When Mother Zhou saw her son, it was as if she saw her pillar of support. She immediately cried in grievance.
âChangqing, you have to stand up for Momâ¦â
âMom, donât be anxious. Tell me.â Zhou Changqing comforted his mother before asking again.
Mother Zhou immediately told him everything that had happened.
It turned out that Mother Zhou usually liked to stroll around the antique street. When she had nothing to do, she would buy some bottles and jars at a low price.
Today, she came to the antique street as usual. She wanted to continue shopping for some bargain items.
However, when she reached the entrance of this antique shop, the owner insisted on pulling her in to take a look.
At first, she refused, but the shop owner was too enthusiastic. She couldnât put down her pride and followed her in.
When the shop owner heard that she liked vases, she immediately took one and handed it to her, saying that it was the highlight of their shop.
When she heard that it was the treasure of the shop, she knew that it must be very valuable, so she asked the other party to keep it.
However, the shop owner insisted on letting her see it.
She thought that since she couldnât afford it anyway, she would treat it as an eye-opener. There was no loss in looking at it a few times.
Unexpectedly, just as she took the vase and had no time to look at it, someone suddenly bumped into her from behind.
The vase fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
After that, the shop owner dragged her and insisted that she compensate for the vase.
It was said that this vase was a blue and white porcelain from the Yuan Dynasty. There was also an expert appraisal report that said it was worth more than three million yuan.
After Zhou Changqing heard this, he was also a little confused. âWhereâs the person who bumped you? Did you find him?â
Mother Zhou sobbed and shook her head. âI was so scared that I didnât even notice who bumped me.â
Zhou Changqing turned to look at the lady boss of the antique shop. âLady boss, do you have surveillance cameras in your shop? Can you find that person?â
âSorry, there are no surveillance cameras in my shop.â The lady boss blocked the door, afraid that the mother and son would escape.
âThen did you see who bumped my mom?â Zhou Changqing could only continue asking.
âI didnât see him.â The Lady Boss shook her head again.
Zhou Changqing had no other choice. If he could find the person who bumped his mom, he might be able to get the other party to share some of the compensation.
But now that they couldnât find him, they could only make the compensation themselves.
âLady Boss, the vase was broken by my mother. We have to pay for it. But we definitely canât afford to pay three million yuan. Can you make an exception?â
