Bai Meiyue was still in a slight daze, as she hadn't been sleeping for the past few days but her mind cleared up when she heard Wan Guofu's voice. She raised her head and turned to look at Wan Guofu and the rest of the team members. They were running downstairs with heavy backpacks on their backs as if they were leaving the complex for days.
Seeing this, Bai Meiyue immediately chased after them. She caught hold of Yang Chunhua, who was running out of the complex sneakily with Liu Mei. "What happened?" she asked with a stern voice while holding Yang Chunhua's wrist.
"Sister Yue." Yang Chunhua looked at Bai Meiyue with a hint of hesitation on her face. She said to Bai Meiyue, "Its nothing —"
"Don't lie to me!"
"Its Master Lei," Liu Mei was the one who replied to Bai Meiyue when Yang Chunhua was hesitating. Yang Chunhua turned to look at the latter when she saw her speak, only for Liu Mei to roll her eyes and say, "Do you think that you can leave without telling the truth to Sister Yue?" She then turned to look at Bai Meiyue and said to her, "Master Lei sent an SOS." She showed the walkie-talkie that the entire team had with them when they went out on a mission.
"It seems like something happened to him when he was returning."
When Bai Meiyue heard that something happened to Lei Qian, she didn't even think twice before running downstairs with the rest of the team. When Bai Jixuan saw his sister running like her life was on the line, he was so anxious that he shouted before he could think things through, "Yueyue! Don't run. Think about the child in your belly!"
Bai Meiyue didn't hear him but Yang Chunhua, Liu Mei and Liu Che heard him.
Child?
Where did a child pop out of nowhere?
Bai Meiyue however, didn't know that her brother had disclosed her secret. She ran to the parking lot and got into a car with Wan Guofu.
"You…"
"Step on the pedal." Bai Meiyue turned to look at the man while putting on the seat belt. She was careful not to strangle the child in her belly. "We don't know what kind of condition Lei Qian must be in at the moment. We cannot waste more time."
As much as Wan Guofu would have loved to fight it off with Bai Meiyue, he knew that he couldn't. He stepped on the accelerator and they drove out of the parking lot just in time for Bai Jixuan and Bai Zhan to catch the exhaust. They saw the car driving away and suddenly became really worried.
