Return To 1998

The old lady, the mother-in-law of Bai Lanlan, heard the knock on the door, opened the door, and saw Tongdao Xu and Dongyang Xi standing at the door, the old lady looked at them a few times, her eyes puzzled, Who are you? Who are you looking for? I seem to be I don't know you...

Of course she didn't know them.

When Bai Lanlan and Mi Li got married before, Tongdao Xu came to her house.

But, for one thing, that was almost ten years ago.

At that time, Xu Tongdao was only about twelve years old, his facial features had not yet developed, and his height had not yet begun to jump up, which must have been much different from his current image.

Second, since Bai Lanlan and Mi Li got married, Tongdao Xu has never been to her house for so many years. This old lady only met Tongdao Xu once ten years ago, and on the wedding day, there were so many people, she went to her house again. How good is your memory as you age?

However, Bai Lanlan looks like her father Xu Weidong, so Tongdao Xu and Bai Lanlan are somewhat similar in terms of eyebrows and eyes.

No, although the old lady didn't recognize them, she was always staring at Xu Tongdao's face at this time. She always felt that they were similar, as if she had seen them before, but she was not sure.

Tongdao Xu saw a little girl who was about seven or eight years old in the living room, lying beside a small wooden table, playing with a pile of wood.

At this time, the little girl also looked at them curiously, her big watery eyes blinked, and whether it was her facial features or her skin color, there was a faint shadow of Bai Meifeng.

Tongdao Xu guessed that this little girl should be Xiaoxiao, the daughter of Bai Lanlan and Mi Li.

He had heard of the little girl.

Speaking of which, this little girl should call him cousin.

However, seeing her cool appearance of Bai Meifeng, Xu Tongdao couldn't like her in his heart.

Although she is pretty.

I'm looking for Bai Meifeng! Is she here?

Xu Tongdao restrained his thoughts, fixed his eyes on the old lady, and asked.

Observe the old lady's expression carefully.

The old lady was stunned, Bai Meifeng? I don't know... not right! Bai Meifeng? You know Bai Meifeng? She can be your mother at her age, right? Are you looking for her?

The old lady looked suspicious.

Tongdao Xu still stared at her expression,

Is she there?

The old lady shook her head subconsciously and sighed: No! No! How could she live here? She has a home of her own, besides, she has been missing for several years, and we haven't seen her for several years, how do you remember? Come to our house to find her? What is your relationship with her?

Hold on!

Xu Tongdao said lightly, lowered his head and took out his mobile phone, and found Bai Meifeng's number in the mobile phone address book.

Before today, he did not have Bai Meifeng's mobile phone number.

Because a few years ago, when Bai Meifeng disappeared, mobile phones were not yet popular. At that time, his fellow Xu did not have a mobile phone, nor did Bai Meifeng.

And the number of Bai Meifeng saved in his mobile phone now was given to him by Ge Lianghua when he was on the phone with Ge Lianghua not long ago.

As for why Ge Lianghua has Bai Meifeng's number?

without it!

Just because the big head platinum root mobile phone has it.

Ge Lianghua found the call records of Bai Meifeng and Bai Meifeng on Bai Baigen's mobile phone. At that time, Tongdao Xu asked Ge Lianghua to send him Bai Meifeng's number.

Wait? What are you waiting for? Do you, do you have anything else to do?

The old lady was even more puzzled, watching Xu Tongdao take out his mobile phone in confusion, and watched him pull out a number in his mobile phone and dial it out.

After dialing the number, Tongdao Xu put the phone to his ear, but his eyes passed through the living room behind the old lady, his eyes switching back and forth between the two bedroom doors.

He wanted to confirm whether Bai Meifeng was hiding in those two rooms at this time.

If the phone cannot be confirmed, then in the next step, he and Xi Dongyang will forcefully break in and open the doors of the two bedrooms.

There was a beep sound from the phone, and after a while, the call was connected.

Hello? Hello, who are you looking for?

On the phone, Bai Meifeng's voice came.

As soon as Xu Tongdao heard it, he confirmed that it was Bai Meifeng's voice. Although he had not heard Bai Meifeng's voice for a long time, he still heard it immediately.

Bai Meifeng...is his great aunt after all.

When his uncle Xu Weidongjian was there, he often went to their house to play. How could he be unfamiliar with Bai Meifeng's voice?

but……

Hearing Bai Meifeng's voice on the phone, Tongdao Xu narrowed his eyes, but did not speak, but instead listened to the voice on the other side of her phone.

Before the call was connected just now, he didn't hear the phone ringing in the two bedrooms of Bai Lanlan's house. Although he wasn't sure, there was a high probability... Bai Meifeng really wasn't here, unless she muted her phone in advance.

At this time, Tongdao Xu listened to the noisy background sound from the mobile phone, and immediately concluded that Bai Meifeng was really not here at this time.

Because in the noisy background voice over the phone, he faintly heard a few words.

- Mom, Mom! Open! Open!

——Hey! Shenshan Middle Road is here, did anyone get off the bus? If anyone got off, let me know! Those who don't get off will stop...

- Let me, let me go! Yes! Yes! Get off...

...

Probably because Tongdao Xu didn't speak out immediately, Bai Meifeng on the other end of the phone asked again, Hello? Hello? Who are you looking for? Who are you? Can you hear me? Hello?

On the other end of the phone, Tongdao Xu opened his half-squinted eyes, took the phone away from his ear, covered the phone with his other hand, turned to Xi Dongyang who was beside him, and said, Tell her for me! Your sister Xi Xiaoqian!

After finishing speaking, he handed the phone to Xi Dongyang.

Xi Dongyang was very confused for a while, not knowing why Xu Tongdao asked him to say that.

He also didn't know that the phone Tongdao Xu just called was Bai Meifeng.

But he was doing things for Xu Tongdao, and he was receiving Xu Tongdao's salary, so although he was confused, he still took the phone.

Hello? I'm looking for Xi Xiaoqian! I'm looking for Xi Xiaoqian!

As soon as Xi Dongyang finished speaking, he heard the voice of a middle-aged woman on the phone, Ah? Who? No! No! You made a mistake...

After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

Xi Dongyang blinked blankly, handed the phone back to Tongdao Xu, and said embarrassingly, Hang up, hang up.

And this is the result that Xu Tongdao wants.

The reason why Xi Dongyang was asked to speak for him just now was because he was afraid that Bai Meifeng could hear his Tongdao Xu's voice.

Just like Tongdao Xu could hear Bai Meifeng's voice at once, he was also worried that Bai Meifeng could hear his voice at once.

If he didn't hand over his cell phone to Xi Dongyang and asked Xi Dongyang to say something like that, but hung up the call, Tongdao Xu was worried that Bai Meifeng would be vigilant and guessed that the call might be from him.

He didn't forget that Ge Lianghua told him on the phone not long ago that Bai Jingen's mobile phone call records showed that Bai Jingen called Bai Meifeng after he escaped from Baiwan Village.

You don't need to ask to know that when Bai Jinggen called Bai Meifeng, he must have told Bai Meifeng what Bai Jingjing heard him call her...

Putting the phone back in his trousers pocket, Xu Tongdao smiled at the old lady who was still looking at him in confusion, Since Bai Meifeng is not here, let's go first, goodbye!

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Xi Dongyang immediately followed.

Eh? Eh? You just left? Who are you?

The old lady asked curiously from behind.

However, Tongdao Xu had no interest in answering, and strode away without looking back.

At this time, the background noise he heard on the phone just now echoed in his mind.

——Shenshan Middle Road?

--get off?

Bai Meifeng is in the car now? Did the car just pass Shenshan Middle Road? She was fleeing from Shazhou County after taking the call from Bai Baigen?
