At night, Xu Mi tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep.

His mobile phone was temporarily confiscated by the teacher, and he couldn't contact Qi Yao, and he was forced to renege on his promise to have a video with him.

I don't know if Qi Yao is safe there, and if he has taken any measures.The carefully cultivated saplings were moved to the poisonous soil, and Xu Mi panicked.He is a prophet, but many times he can't resist the rules of the world and appears powerless.No matter which world, the strong are respected.

Qi Yao didn't sleep well either, and often said that he had to listen to his teeth grinding to fall asleep. Xu Mi didn't believe this statement, but it was true that he lacked a sense of security.

He is the protagonist, of course nothing will happen to him, Xu Mi is still uncontrollably worried.Although he is often awkward and has a bad temper, the boy's feelings are sincere, and Qi Yao is only a teenager.

Getting up from the bed, Xu Mi hurriedly put on a coat and went out with the money.

It was late, and there were only a few half-broken street lights outside, and the light was dim.The wind in the autumn night was icy cold, Xu Mi flinched and pulled up the zipper of his coat, as if he caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of his eye.

The law and order in this area is not good, especially at night, so Xu Mi raised his vigilance and quickened his pace.

There was no mobile phone store nearby, so he went to the nearest public phone booth and pressed the string of numbers he knew by heart.

Qi Yao was looking at his pale face on the screen of the phone absently, when suddenly the screen turned on, and his heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably.

Seeing clearly that it was a string of unfamiliar numbers, his eyes darkened, and he still connected with a glimmer of expectation.

"Hey, Qi Yao, it's me, Xu Mi."

"Well, I know. Why are you thinking of calling me?"

In fact, what I want to say is, why did I even think about making a phone call.

"Well, I lost my phone."

Xu Mi told a little lie, because her mobile phone was confiscated for playing in class, she was a little ashamed.

Qi Yao chuckled, "Fool." His mood improved a lot.

"Hmph, don't wait for me if you don't go to bed so late? Don't be self-willed or careless there. I'll change my phone tomorrow. Go to bed quickly."

Hearing his voice, there should be nothing wrong, Xu Mi feels relieved, but the sense of crisis is getting stronger and stronger, and he wants to go home as soon as possible.

"Okay, you, Xu Mi? Xu Mi? What's wrong?"

Only a muffled hum was heard, and there was no movement over there, and Qi Yao was very anxious.

Before he had time to think about anything, Qi Yao called Shen Ze.

"Shen Ze, go to Xu Mi's house quickly, something may have happened to him!"

Putting down the phone, Qi Yao's face was cold and gloomy, his black eyes were looking out of the window, his fingers gathered to grab the folds of the bed sheet.

When he woke up, Xu Mi was placed in a transparent room with his hands tied.

The rope was tied so tightly that Xu Mi couldn't untie it after trying.

Outside the glass wall, a man was sitting with his back facing him, his back was familiar.

"Ranran, your son is in my hands, are you sure you want to do that?"

Xu Mi recognized that it was Xia Zhenfeng.

"Second brother, don't you know what it means for me to return to Xia's house? I don't have a son."

Xia Ran sneered, not caring much.

"Really, do you want to let you see him?"

Xia Zhenfeng turned around as he spoke, pointing the computer's camera at Xu Mi who was bound in the room.

On the screen, Xia Ran's expression didn't fluctuate at all, and he said calmly: "Second brother, I still use this method after so many years. It was Rong Sheng back then, but now I am. Why do you think you can compete with me and elder brother if you don't have any progress? What's more, Dad prefers it. Also big brother."

A stern look flashed across Xia Zhenfeng's eyes, and he smiled sarcastically: "As long as the method works, I understand you, Ranran. You have always been soft-hearted, so why are you so cruel to the second brother? You and Dad are partial to him, obviously I prefer With the ability, the Xia family is not relying on me to make it to where it is today?"

"Hehe, you don't deserve to make me soft-hearted. How could you ever be soft-hearted to me back then. Brother at least has a benevolent heart. As for you, the Patriarch can't stand ruthless." Xia Ran's always gentle and soft face appeared sharp, and his voice cold.

"It's not that the Xia family relied on you until today, it was you who relied on the Xia family until today. You've got enough. I won't compromise no matter what, I'm just a heartless child."

"Really? Even if it's like this, it doesn't matter?"

Xia Zhenfeng pursed his lips, and slowly pressed a button.

The glass wall behind Xu Mi separated to the two sides, without any protection, and behind him was a bottomless abyss, which was even more gloomy in the dark night.

"up to you."

Xia Ran smiled coldly, looked at him leisurely with folded arms, and even sipped coffee leisurely.

Xu Mi guessed it based on their conversation. It turned out that her mother was the daughter of the Xia family, and she went back to the Xia family to protect herself.

She looked much better, and her hair had grown back. She had left her ears till her ears and curled them slightly. She was dressed in a bright red suit, looking smart and refined.The appearance in memory has changed a lot, Xu Mi vaguely feels that she is unhappy, and looks a little tired.

Her indifference was faking, Xu Mi was not sad, but just felt sorry for her.A game for the strong, a disaster for the weak, if you don't try your best, you will be swallowed.

Xia Ran seemed to be casually looking at the scenery outside the window, not knowing what she saw, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

Xu Mi sat there, motionless, staring at Xia Ran on the computer screen, with a sore nose.

Xia Zhenfeng walked in with a friendly smile, "Speaking of which, I'm your uncle, it's a pity."

Xu Mi looked up at him blankly, as if he was frightened.

"If you can persuade your mother to give in, I'm not such a cruel person."

Looking down at him from above, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was teasing a little pet.

He looked calm and relaxed, Xu Mi read the impatience and anxiety in his eyes, he was facing a very difficult and urgent matter, such as the change of the head of the family.According to news reports, Xia Zhizhou, the current leader of the Xia family, has formally submitted his resignation letter to the board of directors and withdrawn from the power center. It is rumored that his eldest son Xia Zhenchuan will take over.

As long as some things are figured out, the next step is not difficult to guess.It was nothing more than Xia Ran and Xia Zhenchuan teaming up to fight Xia Zhenfeng, and Xia Zhenfeng lost to Goujitiaoqiang.It stands to reason that Xia Zhenfeng has a lot of power in his hands, so he won't be too passive. Xia Zhenchuan's ability is not as good as him, at least on the surface.

Presumably due to the credit of that evidence, holding him grabbed Xia Zhenfeng's throat and frightened the people behind him.It's just that there are many hidden dangers brought about by that evidence. Xia Ran's danger is hard to guard against, even with the protection of Xia's family.

And she is so calm, she must have thought of a plan.

Xu Mi wasn't sure at first, but a corner he saw inadvertently in the video just now made him confirm.Xia Ran and Meng Jie have reached a cooperation. Because of Xia Ran, even if Meng Xiegui does not help, he will not stop it.Xia Zhenfeng is their abandoned son, and it is also sincere.If this continues, Xia Ran's situation will only become more dangerous.

Xu Mi frowned, looking distressed.

Xia Zhenfeng thought he was persuaded, and continued: "You mother and son have been dependent on each other for so many years, it is impossible for her to ignore you, don't be afraid, child, go."

Xu Mi looked at him timidly, unable to move at all.

Xia Zhenfeng made a look, and someone came over immediately and helped him untie the rope on his leg.

Xu Mi knew that what he had to do now was to stall for time, wear down Xia Zhenfeng's patience, and wait for him to show his flaws.This place is very hidden, built on a mountain, it will take time to find out the specific address, it is well-prepared, and it will take time to come here without alerting people.

Walking to the computer, Xu Mi called "Mom" with red eyes, and tried to hold back the tears.He didn't know why he cried so easily, as if he was more vulnerable in front of the closer people.

Xia Ran glanced at him calmly, but didn't respond. She lowered her eyes and sipped the bitter coffee, as if he didn't exist.

Xu Mi was silent for a while, and asked her: "Mom, do you want me?" He asked Xia Zhenfeng.

Still no response.

Xu Mi looked back at Xia Zhenfeng helplessly, and after receiving his encouraging eyes, continued to look at Xia Ran, with a sob in his voice: "Mom, I miss you so much, don't you want me, okay, I'm a very good person by myself. Taking the fifth place in the grade is a bit of a step backward, and I will continue to work hard."

"Mom, I'm so scared, woo woo."

......

Xia Ran lowered her head from time to time, looked out of the window from time to time, but didn't look at Xu Mi, and finally seemed to feel annoyed, and glanced at him impatiently: "What are you arguing about? Dad is just as useless, and I get angry when I see you."

Xia Zhenfeng twitched his lips mockingly, he took Xia Ran's words for granted, this nephew was too soft-tempered and not promising.

Looking down at his watch, the anxiety in his eyes became more intense, he took out his cell phone and made a call, before he said a few words, he threw the cell phone to the ground hard.

"Are you fucking me? You son of a bitch."

Xia Zhenfeng strode forward to catch Xu Mi, but he underestimated him, this kid was just delaying time.

"Xia Ran, I don't feel good about your son, and don't even think about it!"

Xia Zhenfeng roared in demeanor, this side failed, and the other side he arranged was also destroyed by Xia Zhenchuan, it was completely over.

Xu Mi's hands were tied, and his legs could still move. The time he talked to Xia Ran just now relieved the blood stagnation and numbness that had been tied for a long time.Dodging Xia Zhenfeng and fleeing outside, his followers immediately caught up.

"Mimi, are you okay?"

Just when he was about to be caught, Meng Jie brought someone over in time.

Xu Mi shook his head, looking at Xia Zhenfeng in a state of embarrassment, every time he saw him he looked calm and confident, and he became like this because of the failure to seize power.Brothers of the same father and mother, whoever is the head of the family, the other will get a lot, and what is left after the fight.How much is too much right? There is no solution to this question. Human desires are unlimited.

Competition of legitimate means is of course nothing, but Xia Zhenfeng has worked hard for so many years, and his hands have long been dirty, stained with the blood of relatives and friends.The death of Xu Mi's father cannot be separated from him.

The waiting time is always extremely long, Qi Yao leaned on the bed, pursed his lips and looked at the phone quietly, the same state as he was waiting for Xu Mi's call before.

"Brother Ze, are we still going?"

In the hidden place near the apartment on the top of the mountain, Shen took people to hide there, ready to find the right time to rescue people.

Until, in the groggy night, Xu Mi was paid by a man.

By the light in the corridor, Shen recognized that it was a member of the Meng family, Meng Jie.

The two looked familiar, and the communication was natural, and Xu Mi was still wearing that person's suit jacket.

Thinking about the news that Xu Mi and Meng Xiegui had met alone, Shen frowned in thought.He didn't speak, and the people under his hands didn't dare to move.

After watching the group leave by car, Shen Ze said in a deep voice, "Let's go."

After thinking about it, he sent another message to Qi Yao: Xu Mi is fine, he just fell and was taken to the hospital by passers-by, and he is now on his way home.

He also couldn't figure out why he had to hide it from Qi Yao. This feeling was very uncomfortable, and Shen Ze frowned tightly.Let's talk after confirming, in case there is another misunderstanding.

Qi Yao quickly replied: That's good, give him a mobile phone tomorrow.

The corners of the mouth were slightly raised, and the heart that was raised was finally let go. The nerves were tense all night, and when he relaxed, he felt tired.Qi Yao rubbed the center of his eyebrows, lay down flat, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

"Mimi, the matter is just as you have seen, it is very complicated and cannot be explained in a few words."

After sending Xu Mi home, Meng Jie said.

"The question from last time, I want to ask you again, have you ever thought about going abroad to study? Don't bother me, I'm helping my aunt, she's in a very difficult situation now, Xia Zhenfeng is down, and there are thousands of others who are better than him Yes. You are her only weakness."

Xu Mi fell silent, Meng Jie was right, he is mother's trouble now, he can neither protect mother nor himself.

Xu Mi smiled wryly, "You said they are so powerful, it doesn't matter where I hide, can I hide?"

Meng Jie looked at him distressedly, and said softly: "It will be fine when Mi Mi grows up, everything will be fine." He will do his best to end all this as soon as possible, the revenge that should be avenged, the injustice that should be settled, No one will fall.

"So, Brother Jie, can you teach me how to become powerful?"

Xu Mi looked into his eyes and said, a firm light flashed in the clear eyes.

Avoiding the problem will not solve the problem, it will only make you inescapable and embarrassed.

Qi Yao's matter has not been resolved, and his mother's situation is even more serious. He is like a puppet being pushed forward, useless at all.

Meng Jie didn't know how to answer him, and was silent for a long, long time.

He finally said, "Mimi, you have done a good job, don't force yourself."

Xu Mi smiled self-deprecatingly: "It would be great if it was enough to push myself."

Looking at Meng Jie, Xu Mi said, "Include me in your plan, I was in your plan from the beginning, wasn't I?"

Under the gaze of his clear eyes, Meng Jie felt that all his thoughts had nowhere to hide, and smiled wryly: "So you already know, I'm sorry for Mimi."

"I don't need to be sorry, my father's death, I should be held accountable as a son."

These are not Xu Mi's impulsive remarks. The events of the year are like a dense net, connecting all the important characters in the world of the book together, and no one can escape.If this matter is not resolved, he will not have peace.

Outside the house, Shen hid in the shade of a tree, staring at the entrance of the corridor, unable to distinguish his expression.
