Gone. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

The matter is finally over.

With Xu Feng leading Huang Hai and Wang Xinqi, the three collaborated vigorously to quickly tie up hundreds of people upstairs and downstairs.

The Ninth Bureau's temporary command center urgently rented more than ten buses, barely managing to transport everyone to the airport, and it was extremely exhausting.

Makely's parents, escorted by Yu Yao and Yin Mengwei, also arrived downstairs at the building with their daughter.

Makely came out as promised.

She remained silent, simply following Zhang Beixing downstairs.

Since she came out of the room, no one else came out from there.

Though Zhang Beixing was puzzled, he didn't ask further.

He didn't care about the life and death of those two; it didn't mean much to him.

After all, they were not citizens of Great Xia.

If those two died inside, as long as the Lanxi officials didn't cause trouble and that heavily-built Mayor of Tietuo City didn't interfere, it wouldn't matter to Zhang Beixing.

Just pretend he never saw those two.

Once Makely reached downstairs and saw her parents and daughter, she finally spoke.

She briefly organized her thoughts and explained the general situation to the three.

When they learned they had to go to Great Xia with Makely, their expressions revealed a trace of panic.

Since Makely is a high-income individual, their family frequently travels globally; they have been to Great Xia before.

Only this time, the situation was a bit different.

Previously, they traveled independently, but this time they were escorted tightly by Zhang Beixing's group.

No matter how they looked at it, there seemed to be a feeling of prisoners being transported, which naturally caused panic.

After Makely quietly reassured them with certainty, the two elders calmed down somewhat, though their emotions stabilized a bit.

Yet, from time to time, when they looked at Zhang Beixing, their eyes still carried suspicion.

Zhang Beixing didn't mind those looks.

Since he started training in martial arts, over the past year, as his strength gradually increased.

He has grown accustomed to various looks from passersby, be it fear or respect.

Zhang Beixing now only watched Makely, wanting to see how she would resolve her daughter's issue.

After all, he had heard the little girl asking about her father's whereabouts more than once.

Although he didn't confirm upstairs, Zhang Beixing had already guessed in his heart.

The little girl probably won't have... anymore.

Seeing her daughter's inquisitive eyes, Makely took a deep breath, squatted down and spoke to her.

"Darling, your dad has his own pursuits, chasing his dreams. We ought to respect him, shouldn't we?"

Makely forced a smile and said, "He's always been shackled by us, and would be unhappy, just let him go?"

The little girl, around seven or eight years old, didn't quite understand the concepts of pursuing dreams and freedom.

These were slightly difficult for her to grasp.

However, she didn't pay much attention, spending most of her time with her grandparents.

Though her dad didn't work, for some reason, he was always seen leaving early and returning late; every time Makely went to work, dad would disappear shortly after mom.

Seeing her daughter's emotions calmed, Makely turned to look at Zhang Beixing.

"Minister Zhang, may I speak with you alone?"

Zhang Beixing gazed deeply at her.

"Sure."

The myriad of doubts bottled up for over an hour were finally going to be resolved.

...

...

The buses kept coming, one after another, loading people.

From branch president to security at the gate, a total of more than six hundred people at Lambo DE Organization's division.

One bus could only accommodate thirty-plus people, it took a full seven rounds to transport all six hundred people.

Temporary command center staff were just complaining to Xu Feng that labor costs were too high here in Lanxi.

Renting a bus for a day wasn't expensive; the bus cost three hundred US dollars, but the labor demanded two thousand US dollars.

Man, the exorbitant cost had them wincing.

The finance staff, shouting to deduct it from the Extraordinary Reserve Team Members' bonuses, shivered under the cold stares from everyone except Xu Feng, ultimately letting it go.

As he left, he was muttering.

"What is this, normally we're all happy together, but when it comes to money, it's like life is on the line."

Saying this while quickly walking away, fearing he'd be caught and beaten if he was slow.

The others were one thing, particularly Yu Yao and Yin Mengwei.

The saying about petty persons and women being hard to deal with was truly embodied.

Seeing the finance bigwig fleeing, Xu Feng shook his head helplessly, pointed at a few team members, and smiled bitterly.

"You guys, tsk tsk, really don't let up."

Yu Yao just snorted coldly at his words, rolled her eyes at Xu Feng, but didn't argue.

"You may not mind money, but if it's shared among us, it's over a thousand US dollars per person, changing to Great Xia's currency, it's over ten thousand!"
