Chapter 338 - 338: All of Them Are In The Out of Service Area

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Steward Neo, speaking fluent Chinese, sounded quite helpless. “Let me be frank with you, the estate is completely cut off from the outside world right now.

Without any support, we might not even have enough food soon..”

“Do you think I’ll believe that?” Wu Yue couldn’t help rolling his eyes. “Your master is so unscrupulous, aren’t you afraid our young master will turn hostile?”

“Tomorrow morning, I hope the phone will be delivered to our young master. As for how to get it, you figure it out yourself.”

A hypocritical accomplice.

Wu Yue couldn’t be bothered with further arguing with him. After saying this, he turned and left.

Neo watched Wu Yue’s figure disappear at the end of the stairs, and his expression gradually became solemn.

He was just a steward, responsible for fulfilling the tasks assigned by his master.

As for everything else, he didn’t need to pay attention to it.

After a short silence of less than two minutes, he quickly walked to his room.

When he tried to use the only phone that could contact the outside world to explain the situation to Caesar, the door that had been locked from the inside was violently kicked open.

Then, a tall and handsome man, like Lucifer ruling over hell, appeared as if summoned.

Under the immense pressure, Neo’s body almost stiffened, and he couldn’t even hide the phone in his hand.

Wu Yue took a few steps and reached him, snatching the phone from his hand. Then, he returned to Qin Lu’s side and handed over the phone. “Young Master.”

“Qin… Master Qin… I… I didn’t…”

“Didn’t what?”

Wu Yue coldly interrupted him, and then, seeing his suddenly pale face, consoled him, ‘You only followed your master’s orders. Don’t worry, although the young master can be ruthless, he won’t involve the innocent.”

In a brief moment, a cold sweat had already formed on Neo’s back. He bit his lip, lowered his head humbly, and said, “Thank you, Master Qin…”

He had messed up his master’s plan and didn’t know if he would live through this…

Qin Lu wasn’t in the mood to exchange words with a steward. After taking the phone, he directly left the room.

Returning upstairs, Qin Lu dialed a number and got in touch with Qin Yi.

“Qin Yi, come pick me up.”

Qin Yi was on the verge of tears out of excitement. “Young Master, you finally contacted us!”

In these days when Master Qin had gone missing, the group of them had almost gone crazy!

Qin Lu’s gaze remained indifferent, almost devoid of any emotional reaction. “Tomorrow morning, I want to see all of you.”

“Yes, Young Master!”

After hanging up with Qin Yi, Qin Lu made another call, this time to Old Madam Qin.

Under normal circumstances, he tried to call Old Madam Qin every day, offering her daily greetings. However, this time, due to the unexpected situation, he hadn’t been in touch for a few days. With his phone being out of service area, he was worried that Old Madam Qin might be anxious.

As a result…

After Old Madam Qin received his call, she immediately bombarded him, “You little rascal, not contacting me for so long, have you already Yanyan over?” Qin Lu paused for a moment and replied in a gentle tone, “Well, almost.”

“In just a few more days, Yanyan will have her final exams. You should accompany her in her studies. After the exams, bring her to the capital city, let her spend the summer vacation here!”

“Alright, I’ll take her there.” “Okay, you can hang up now. I’m quite busy.”

*Click, click, click…*

Old Madam Qin hung up the phone promptly, without any lingering.

Qin Lu couldn’t help but tug at the corner of his lips in exasperation. He then dialed Nan Yan’s phone number.

“The number you have dialed is currently out of service area. Please try again later…”

The tone from the phone sent a slight frown across Qin Lu’s face.

Where could the little one be, with no signal?

Next, he called Shen Junqing.

“The number you have dialed is currently out of service area. Please try again later…”

It seemed that Shen Junqing was with Nan Yan.

The fact that all of them were in a location with no signal…

A thought made his brow involuntarily furrow.

He hoped it was just him being overly suspicious…

Nan Yan had been attempting to hack into JUN’s communication satellite in Eireng. However, JUN’s satellite had a much higher level of firewall security compared to regular places.

She couldn’t afford to alert the other side, so she had to choose the slow and stealthy approach.

That’s why it took a bit of time.

At two in the morning, after nearly two hours of work, she let out a quiet breath and decisively pressed the Enter key.

“Is it done?”

Bai Chen hadn’t felt a bit of sleepiness and had casually moved from his bed to Nan Yan’s side. He sat there as if he had every right, observing how she was infiltrating.

“Yeah,” Nan Yan responded softly. Her fingers, after a brief pause, began to rapidly tap the keyboard again. “Now, let’s try to contact him.”

By “him,” she naturally meant Qin Lu.

Qin Lu had no hint of sleepiness whatsoever. Since being confined here, his sleep time had been compressed to a minimum and mostly during daylight hours. At night, he never slept. When one’s life and safety were not in their control, there was no room for relaxation. Instead, he had been trying to figure out the patterns of the sniper shifts outside.

While he continued observing the situation outside, his phone, which was placed on the desk, suddenly lit up.

The room was in complete darkness, making even a tiny source of light quite noticeable.

Qin Lu turned his head and saw that it was his own phone lighting up. He walked over with long strides.

It was an incoming call via satellite.

He hesitated for a moment, then picked up the phone and answered.

“Brother, it’s me.”

A clear and pleasant voice flowed into his ears through the phone.

Qin Lu’s eyes revealed a hint of surprise, but it was quickly replaced by a solemn expression. “Yanyan, where are you?” “In Eireng,” Nan Yan replied calmly.

Qin Lu: “…”

His guess had come true.

“Is Shen Junqing with you, as well as Bai Chen?”

“Bai Chen is here, but Third Brother isn’t with me,” Nan Yan paused for a moment. “Brother, is your current location safe?”

“Very safe,” Qin Lu lied, eyeing the infrared aiming point projected onto the wall from outside.

“Then, I’ll come to find you early tomorrow morning.”

“No need,” Qin Lu’s tone was somewhat urgent, and then he spoke calmly, suppressing the shock he had just received. “It’s not easy to enter this place where I am. Send me your location, and I’ll come to you.” The little one would do as she said.

How could he let her come to such a dangerous place?

“You can come to find me, but Brother, are you sure you can escape?” Nan Yan didn’t believe his words about not being in danger.

If he wasn’t in danger, why had he been out of contact for so long?

If he wasn’t in danger, why hadn’t he returned to the country?

Hmph!

He was lying to her!

“It’s as simple as can be,” Qin Lu’s tone was extremely self-assured. “As long as

I decide to leave, no one can stop me, Brother..”
