Mu Xiaoyao took the key and immediately held onto Bei Xier’s arm, leading her towards the stairs.

After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped.

“Do you have a phone charger?”

The imposing aura left no room for doubt, and the landlady immediately nodded.

“Yes.”

Speaking, she took a charger from beneath the counter and handed it to him.

Mu Xiaoyao nodded at her before pulling Bei Xier upstairs.

Such a simple nod from him made the landlady enthralled for quite a while.

This handsome guy didn’t show much expression, making him seem very cold.

Even with just a nod, she could feel it was an expression of gratitude.

What the motel landlady thought, Mu Xiaoyao had no interest nor disdain to care.

For him now, finding Baili Xia was the most important.

The two of them went up to the third floor, finding room 302.

Once the door was opened, Mu Xiaoyao pushed Bei Xier inside.

Casually, he locked the door behind him.

Entering the room, a sudden trace of fear rose in Bei Xier’s heart.

Downstairs, she didn’t have this feeling, why did she suddenly get nervous once here?

Seeing Mu Xiaoyao approaching her with a cold face, Bei Xier instinctively retreated.

“Mu, Mu Xiaoyao, what do you want to do? You have a charger, quickly charge and call Xiaxia, then you’ll know I didn’t harm her.”

The room was small, with limited space apart from a turn, just a bed and a tiny bathroom.

A few more steps forward from Mu Xiaoyao and Bei Xier had nowhere else to retreat, standing by the bed.

Bei Xier’s voice raised in pitch somewhat, to bolster her courage.

“Don’t come closer, I’ll scream if you do.”

Mu Xiaoyao paused, his gaze landing on Bei Xier’s face.

This girl, her eyes showed not just tension but also some resolve.

Was she planning to resist?

Mu Xiaoyao’s lips curled into a smile; instead of addressing her, he turned around and plugged in the charger.

Sitting on the bed, he powered on his phone.

Immediately, the sound of several text messages came.

Upon opening, there were messages from Baili Xia, from Wu Ming, and even from the guys at the base.

Without thinking, Mu Xiaoyao promptly called Baili Xia.

For some reason, she was outside the service area.

He tried calling Wu Ming, hearing the same prompt: The number you have dialed is not in the service area.

How could this be such a coincidence, Uncle’s phone also wouldn’t connect, where did he go?

The event had taken place so long ago, he couldn’t possibly still be in training.

A premonition of doom seized him; Mu Xiaoyao’s demeanor grew colder.

He glanced at Bei Xier behind him; if no news came, he’d really have to make her suffer.

Mu Xiaoyao opted for Long Ting’s number, dialing it; the call soon connected.

“Long Ting, what’s the situation?”

“Mr. Mu, there’s absolutely no news, Mr. Xiaojiu and Miss Xiaxia have both disappeared.”

From the other end quickly came Long Ting’s rough voice.

“Now the Bei Family is searching for you, alongside people from that mysterious organization.”

Mu Xiaoyao’s hand tightened instantly; the girl and Uncle both disappearing, where did they go?

The fact that people were still searching indicated they hadn’t been found yet; they should be safe for now.

“Mr. Mu, where are you now? Do you need me to meet you?”

“No, you go find them.”

“Understood.” Lei Ting immediately replied, “We are continuously searching.”
