1823 Something Happened (3)
“I’ll go back with you,” Xia Xibei said immediately.
Qi Zhi’an looked at her and shook his head to refuse, “No, I’ll just take care of it on my own…”
“No,” Xia Xibei interrupted him. “Anyway, the engagement party is over, so I’ll go back with you. And I have things to do on my side too.”
“Yeah, it’s over anyway, you can go back together,” Qi Xin smiled and said. “You guys’ business is the most important.”
Looking at Qi Xin’s concern for them, the confusion and caution in Xia Xibei’s heart deepened.
Qi Xin must be having some bad ideas!
That was why she had to follow Qi Zhi’an and them.
“You just take Beibei back with you,” the patriarch said the same thing.
Since everyone said so, Qi Zhi’an didn’t refuse.
“Okay, then we’ll go back now.”
“Hmm. I’ll go back too after I’ve sent the guests away,” Qi Xin said.
After all, Qi Xin was the owner of this place and had to stay there to entertain the other guests.
So many guests were still there, and she, the host, could not leave.
“I’ll have someone send Uncle and Aunt back,” Gu Guanlin stepped forward.
“Good.”
Qi Zhi’an was very anxious and wanted to go back there immediately to check the situation.
The patriarch was also a bit anxious, but still rea.s.sured him, “Go back first and check, there shouldn’t be any big problems.”
After all, it was the place where the spiritual plants were located, and it was well protected, so nothing serious should happen.
“Mm,” Qi Zhi’an nodded his head, but still couldn’t completely calm down.
Soon, the s.h.i.+p was ready.
Qi Zhi’an, Ling Xiao, and Xia Xibei, a family of three, went straight to the s.h.i.+p.
After the s.h.i.+p sailed for a while, Xia Xibei called Qiao Yanjue.
What made her heart slightly cold was that the phone was not working.
Sure enough, something was wrong
She called again with other people’s cell phones, but there was still no signal.
This was the sea, having no signal was a very normal thing.
However, the s.h.i.+p was equipped with a wireless network.
When Xia Xibei went to the captain, the captain said that the Wi-Fi network was down and had not been fixed yet.
Qi Zhi’an rea.s.sured Xia Xibei, “It’s okay, we’ll be on sh.o.r.e in two hours anyway, we’ll have a signal by then.”
That was what they said, but Xia Xibei didn’t feel at ease.
There must be something going on here.
There must be something fishy.
Then she went back to the lounge, took out her bag, and pulled out something from it.
This was the communication device she prepared together with Qiao Yanjue.
Even if there was only a weak signal, it could be useful.
However, because they didn’t have much time, the condition of this communication device was not very good, but it could still be used.
Xia Xibei then called Qiao Yanjue.
Soon, Qiao Yanjue picked up the phone.
“Just now my father said that something happened to the spiritual garden in H City. Is it true?” Xia Xibei asked right away.
Qiao Yanjue looked at the information in his hand and nodded, “Yes, something has indeed happened there.”
“Didn’t you have someone keep an eye on it? Why would something happen?” Xia Xibei asked with a frown.
“I did have people watching, but not from the inside,” Qiao Yanjue explained. “I also just got the news, it should be an inside job.”
Xia Xibei understood.
Unless something happened from the inside, something would not happen to that important spiritual garden.
“Moreover, apart from here, something almost happened in other places as well.”
These words widened Xia Xibei’s eyes.
