40 minutes later.
The Bugatti Veyron arrived at the doorway of Yahai Club.
There was extreme commotion at the entrance of the club, and there were traffic police cars parked at the door.
âWhat happened outside?â Huo Yi slowly parked the car, curiously observing the people running around outside.
Li Beijue also saw it, and when he saw the traffic police, an indescribable feeling weighed upon his heart, as if missing a beat, it suddenly tightened.
Chi Enen�
It couldnât be Chi Enen!
But he couldnât explain why his heart felt as though it was seized by a hand, suddenly swelling with unease and irritation.
Huo Yiâs car had not yet come to a complete stop when he, with a grave expression, bowed his head and took out his mobile phone, dialing a phone number.
âShasha shashaâ¦â After a burst of static, a mechanized sweet female voice responded, âSorry, the user you are calling has switched off their mobile phone, please try again later.â
âShit!â He violently smashed the mobile phone onto the ground, then raised his head to ask Huo Yi, âWhen you called Chi Enen just now, did it not connect or was it switched off?â
Huo Yi paused upon being asked, and under his gaze, he could only truthfully reply, âIt was switched off.â
âWhat about Xi Zelie?â
ââ¦Also switched off.â
âThen why did you tell me it didnât go through!â Li Beijue was incontrollably enraged!
Huo Yi bowed his head, not daring to speak. When he had made the phone call to Miss Chi before, seeing Master Jueâs complexion so pale, he thought the two had quarreled. Therefore, upon hearing the shutdown message, he said it didnât connect, to avoid making Master Jue, who was already angry, even more upset upon learning Miss Chi had switched off her phone.
Later, when he called Young Master Xize and discovered it was also switched off, he worried about misunderstanding and likewise said it didnât go through.
Li Beijueâs temples pulsed violently, and it took him half a moment to calm down. His thin lips tightened into a straight line as he commanded, âCheck! Check immediately what happened at Yahai Club!â
Both Chi Enen and Xi Zelie had their phones off, and he could speculate something involving Quan Dongting, but just now he had called the driver, and even the driverâs mobile phone was switched off! With so many traffic police officers and even the clubâs service staff looking anxious at the entrance of Yahai Club, something must have happened!
Li Beijue now deeply regretted not having skipped that Military District Meeting earlier.
â¦
Half an hour later.
Yahai Club was enveloped beneath a layer of dark clouds.
The air seemed to be charged with the scent of thunder and lightning, with everyone bowing their heads, fearful of incurring trouble.
In the clubâs hall, a man with an icy face seemed as if he was about to murder someone.
Soon, a service staff member was pressed over by two black-clothed bodyguards. A closer look revealed that it was him who had gone to Chi Yaâs car to tip off information.
âWhat are you doing? Let me go.â The service staff memberâs eyes were filled with terror, desperately trying to struggle, but was nevertheless hoisted over like an eagle grabbing a chick by the bodyguards.
âWho told you to do this?â The handsome man, with his profound features, looked even more noble in his simple black outfit. His face was devoid of any expression at this moment, as if he was deliberately suppressing something. Beneath the calm, a storm was raging!
âI donât know⦠I donât know⦠I donât know anything⦠Youâve got the wrong personâ¦â The service staff member stubbornly denied.
Under normal circumstances, Li Beijue wouldnât waste a single word with him, but at this moment, his mind was exceptionally brutal, almost on the brink of homicide! Especially after hearing the service staff memberâs stubborn denials, his pupils suddenly grew cold, and with a swift kick, he sent the man flying!
