Love You for the Rest of My Life-Chapter 1498: Not Utilizing Such a Large Network of Connections!
Di Jinxuan finished listening and slightly furrowed her brows, asking, "How’s the follow-up going? Has that cousin been found? Has a definitive way to break the poison curse been discovered?"
"Not yet," Xiaowu said with some difficulty, but quickly added, "There are some leads. News from the Poison King’s side says someone has provided clues about the cousin, and they’re still searching. As for breaking the poison curse, one team has already been sent to specialize in researching ancient texts on this matter, and another team is gathering information near the Miao Family area. I believe there’ll be news soon."
Di Jinxuan nodded, unconsciously feeling that Nangong Jin was truly impressive. He remained calm in the face of adversity and had essentially managed everything; escape routes were secured, allowing both retreat and advancement.
"What about Old Miao?" Di Jinxuan asked again.
"He’s at the Netherworld Pavilion," Xiaowu replied, "He got shot and was tortured cruelly. He’s barely clinging to life."
"Still unwilling to compromise?" Di Jinxuan frowned.
"He’s incredibly stubborn and refuses to reveal the whereabouts of the cousin," Xiaowu furrowed his brows as well. "It’s also possible that he doesn’t know the cousin’s location."
Di Jinxuan’s brows furrowed even deeper. Based on Xiaowu’s earlier account, the poison curse would naturally lose its effect after 24 hours, but her cousin could still use the curse again on her.
She definitely didn’t want to experience that again. If it happened again, Nangong Jin would undoubtedly be unable to bear it.
So, what should be done?
Di Jinxuan fell into deep thought. Ultimately, as if recalling something, her furrowed brows relaxed, and she suddenly found Nangong Jin to be a bit stubborn.
This matter, he probably wanted to bear alone!
Had he forgotten what her three brothers were capable of?
Did he think her three brothers were just for show?
He probably truly wanted to carry this burden alone, considering sometimes men have their pride and feel that asking her brothers for help would likely result in a tongue-lashing. After all, this incident stemmed from him.
And the reason was utterly ridiculous!
But now, there was no better option. Mobilizing more resources was necessary to address the matter.
Speaking of which, what resources could compare to her three brothers?
Nangong Jin really was foolish not to utilize such vast networks.
Thinking of this, Di Jinxuan immediately took out her phone.
The first call was to Di Mingzhe. Concise and to the point, she spoke, "Big Brother, I need to talk to you about something very important. In about half an hour, meet me at the Vice Presidential Residence."
Her tone was very serious, and Di Mingzhe frowned, "What is it, Xuanxuan? Is it serious?" 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
"Very serious," Di Jinxuan didn’t hold back, "So, you must appear at your place in half an hour."
"Alright, I understand," Di Mingzhe said and hung up.
The second call was to Di Mingchen. He was in the middle of a military demonstration but happened to have a break, so he answered the phone, "Cute Miss Xuanxuan, why didn’t you come for barbecue last night?"
"Second Brother," Di Jinxuan didn’t have the time to banter with Di Mingchen and spoke directly, "I need to talk to you about something important. Can you meet me at Big Brother’s house in about half an hour?"
"What happened?" Di Mingchen asked.
"Something very serious," Di Jinxuan responded, "I need your help urgently. If you don’t show up at Big Brother’s place in half an hour, your little sister might not make it."
Di Mingchen was startled and immediately replied in a calm, composed tone, "Alright, half an hour, I’ll be waiting."
After speaking, Di Mingchen hung up the phone, waved his hand decisively, and said with authority, "Send the message out—today’s military exercise ends here. Deploy three special forces teams to follow me to the Vice Presidential Residence."
