Super Soldier in the City-Chapter 1893 - 1956: Two Women in Trouble
Having had the experience of the first treatment, this time the process of sealing the cold air went smoothly, and the speed was improved. Su Lio felt really good, not as awkward and nervous as the first time. After the treatment, Su Lio, as usual, took a nap and felt that this was the most comfortable time in recent years. Not only was his condition temporarily controlled, but he also didn’t worry about tiring out his grandfather, and his body felt very comfortable and warm.
Li Yifei saw that Su Lio was feeling good and breathed a sigh of relief. After suppressing the cold, he came out. Su Mengxin was waiting downstairs, and when she saw Li Yifei coming down, she hurried up to him, took hold of his arm, and said, "Thanks for your hard work, honey."
"It was nothing, not really hard work." Li Yifei wrapped his arm around Su Mengxin’s slim waist, and they embraced as they walked to the sofa and sat down. Su Mengxin let Li Yifei lie on her lap, and she stretched out her small hand to massage his head.
"Honey, is there really no other way to treat it?" Su Mengxin suddenly asked.
Li Yifei opened his eyes and smiled, saying, "For now, there’s no other way. But if this method continues to work, it’s fine to use it."
Su Mengxin pressed her lips together, a look of worry in her eyes. She had become aware of Su Lio’s physical condition these days, so naturally, she was worried. Not to mention anything else, if he could live like a normal person, it would be great. For example, a few days ago when going shopping, Su Lio had to stop and rest after walking a while, and he couldn’t eat some cold foods.
"It’s just that it’s hard on you," Su Mengxin said softly.
Li Yifei held Su Mengxin’s hand, his fingers gently sliding in her palm, saying, "It’s not too hard. I’ll do my best."
While they were talking, Su Mengxin’s phone rang. She initially didn’t want to answer, but Li Yifei had already lifted his head, gesturing for her to get the phone, so Su Mengxin stood up naturally.
Once she had the phone, Su Mengxin made a sound of recognition, and Li Yifei asked, "What’s wrong?"
"This number... seems to be from Dubai."
"Is it Shanshan and the others? Then quickly answer." Li Yifei sat up as Su Mengxin connected the call, saying, "It’s me, go ahead."
After a few seconds, Su Mengxin’s brows furrowed, her face changed. The call wasn’t from He Fangqing and Xu Shanshan, but from a manager at the company in Dubai. This manager was Li family’s highest representative in Dubai, responsible for the company’s factories and oil field operations there. Recently, He Fangqing and Xu Shanshan went to Dubai because some issues arose with the business there, so Su Mengxin decided to send the experienced He Fangqing, with Xu Shanshan protecting her.
Li Yifei also heard the contents of the call. He stood up and walked to Su Mengxin’s side.
The call lasted nine minutes before Su Mengxin hung up, her brows furrowed. There was trouble over in Dubai, but it wasn’t in Dubai itself. It was at an oil field that the Li family purchased, and a portion of the stakes belonged to this country as well as Dubai. But now, there’s trouble.
In fact, when He Fangqing and Xu Shanshan went there, the trouble had already started, but this time the issue was big. Huaxia workers were surrounded by a group of terrorists, trapped inside the factory, while some workers working outside were taken hostage.
There are thousands of employees at that factory, including hundreds of Huaxia people hired by Huaxia, along with workers from Dubai and surrounding countries.
What worried Li Yifei and Su Mengxin the most was that He Fangqing and Xu Shanshan happened to be at that site. According to the manager, they went to distribute the month’s salary and handle some labor disputes, and then encountered this situation.
This matter originally didn’t require them to be there, but staying in Dubai was boring, so Xu Shanshan dragged He Fangqing along, without expecting this group of terrorists to attack.
This isn’t the main point. The crucial point is that the site seems to have been breached by terrorists, since contact has been lost, and no one answers the calls to people inside. This is fatal. Li Yifei immediately worried about his two wives. When he heard this on the call, he had already started dialing his wives’ numbers, but none were answered.
"Honey..." Su Mengxin always thought there wasn’t any danger in Dubai, so she was confident letting the two women stay there. She didn’t expect this kind of situation. It was her decision, so Su Mengxin felt a little sorrowful, and Li Yifei waved his hand, saying, "Immediately arrange a plane, I need to go to Dubai now."
Flight paths usually need applications, some require days, but Li Yifei has to go now, so he’ll have to call in some favors.
Su Mengxin understood the seriousness of the matter. With so many employees’ lives at stake, not to mention He Fangqing and Xu Shanshan’s safety. If the factory had been breached by terrorists, Li Yifei’s main concern was their safety. Even though Xu Shanshan is an Innate Expert and has trained for a long time, familiar with firearms and having decent shooting skills, she hasn’t experienced much actual warfare. Li Yifei worries she might act on impulse and get in trouble.
No, they must go to Dubai quickly and reach the factory. If workers die, Li Yifei would avenge them and offer generous condolence payments. But if anything happens to He Fangqing and Xu Shanshan, Li Yifei doesn’t know how he would handle his fury.
Women of the Li family also rushed in upon hearing the news, mobilizing their power to quickly approve domestic flight paths. As for Dubai, Li Yifei directly called Prince Sashar.
When he called, Prince Sashar had just finished a party and was lying rhythmically against a blonde beauty. Having drunk quite a bit, he felt sluggish. Sashar was quite gallant tonight. But just as he was reaching the peak, his phone rang, an upbeat tune instantly annoying him, and the woman beneath him opened her eyes.
"Damn it, who calls at this moment!" Sashar cursed with great displeasure. He initially didn’t want to bother, but this phone was his private number, not known to many, forcing him to climb off the woman. After seeing the number, Sashar instantly became clear-headed, recognizing it from the mysterious Eastern country, associated with someone he greatly respects and even slightly fears.
A call from Li Yifei, Sashar couldn’t ignore it. He hastily swiped the screen, took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and said, "Dear Golden Eagle, what prompted you to call me?"
"Sashar, I need you to do me a favor," Li Yifei said directly.
Sashar laughed heartily, "Golden Eagle, please don’t say favor, just straightforwardly say what you need. We are the best of friends."
"Alright, here’s the situation..." Li Yifei explained everything, and Sashar’s alcohol dissipated halfway through hearing it. He knew about Li Yifei’s two wives doing business in Dubai and even hosted a banquet for them, cleaned a villa for their stay, and suggested security guards, which Xu Shanshan refused. Sashar didn’t have much further contact, considering they are Golden Eagle’s wives, frequent contact would be inappropriate, and the two women didn’t trouble him for anything.
But how did such an incident happen? As Sashar listened to Li Yifei’s recount, he subconsciously shook his head. Dubai and the entire UAE are considered relatively safe areas in the Middle East, though there are plenty of terrorists. Mutual respect for boundaries is common. Upon hearing about the attack on that factory, Sashar urgently said, "Golden Eagle, I just found out about this matter too. I’ll immediately investigate the situation. Please don’t be upset, and I’ll find a way to rescue the two ladies."
Li Yifei didn’t blame Sashar, and after hearing his response, Li Yifei said, "You help with this matter first, and also confirm the flight path immediately. I’m flying over now."
"Alright, no problem!" Sashar nodded in agreement.
After ending the call, Sashar broke out in a slight cold sweat, considering the possibility of something happening to Golden Eagle’s wives in Dubai, which might provoke Golden Eagle to go wild and potentially blame him.
Initially, Sashar didn’t need to value Golden Eagle so much, but over a month ago, the battle between Golden Eagle and Europe’s Crazy Satan was known, with Satan’s notorious presence finally killed by Golden Eagle undersea, leaving no traces of the body. This increased Sashar’s reverence for Golden Eagle, and with the deepening cooperation between Dubai’s royalty and Huaxia, maintaining this relationship was crucial.
The Middle East is a mess, with international forces wanting a foothold, even dictating to these countries, while Huaxia is a relatively new player advocating peace, making Dubai eager to maintain good relations with Huaxia.
Li Yifei plays a significant role, especially having decent ties with Sashar.
The blonde beauty noticed Sashar had a call, drastically changing his demeanor, and walked over, pressing her voluptuous body against him. Seeing no reaction, she knelt in front and attempted to start, but Sashar pushed her head away, saying, "I have something urgent, tonight’s over. You can stay here overnight, I’m heading out."
With that, Sashar walked out and draped a long robe over himself, already starting to make calls.
He first reached the airport and searched for a responsible person, handing tasks over to them, and soon phoned various departments, receiving a headache-inducing message.
Indeed, among the oil fields partnered with Huaxia, one had a problem, reportedly launched by over two hundred terrorists, who attacked overnight, causing the factory and outside contacts to be lost. Dubai itself just got the news and hadn’t reported it yet.
