His voice was anxious.
Bai Zihe immediately replied, "Wait for me, I'll be there soon!"
Hanging up the phone, Bai Zihe found a reason and said to his father, "Dad, Director Chen has encountered some trouble, I'll go deal with it first!"
After speaking, without waiting for Bai Zhanhong's reply, he left with Zhan Tianlong.
"This child..."
Bai Zhanhong looked at his retreating figure, feeling a little disappointed.
But looking at Qin Yuan, who was eating, his mood improved: "Miss Qin, how old are you this year, and where do you live?"
...
Huilong Hotel.
As soon as Bai Zihe walked into the private room, two figures rushed forward.
"Mr. Bai, save us!"
The two said in unison, their expressions panicked.
Bai Zihe's sword-like eyebrows rose, and he asked, "What happened?"
Chen Zhennan took a deep breath, suppressing some of his panic, and said hoarsely, "Just now, Zhao Qingtian, the military governor of Jiangdong Province, has ordered the arrest of me and Hong Tianyin!"
Zhao Qingtian!
The number one person in the Jiangdong Provincial Military Region.
Directly subordinate to the Dragon Country War Department, he was second to none in Jiangdong!
He wanted to arrest Chen Zhennan and Hong Tianyin.
The two dared not resist, fearing they would be killed on the spot!
Fortunately, they remembered Bai Zihe's mysterious identity, and they had helped Bai Zihe in the Battle of Xishan before, so they were somewhat familiar with him.
So they rushed to seek help.
Hong Tianyin also said nervously, "Master Bai, only you can save us this time!"
"As long as you are willing to save us this time..."
He gritted his teeth and glanced at Chen Zhennan.
The latter understood, and the two knelt before Bai Zihe: "We are willing to recognize you as our master, and obey your every command from now on, without any complaints!"
Bai Zihe pondered for a moment and agreed, "No problem!"
Although Chen Zhennan and Hong Tianyin were not taken seriously by Zhao Qingtian, they were considered two towering figures in Suhang.
With them around, Bai Zihe could get the first news of any disturbance in Suhang.
It could also ensure a stable rear for the Bai family!
This was very important.
Rumble!
At this moment, the deafening roar of battle chariots and shouts from loudspeakers came from outside: "Chen Zhennan, Hong Tianyin, you can't escape, come down and surrender!"
They're here!
Hearing this sound, Hong Tianyin and Chen Zhennan trembled, their faces filled with panic and unease, as if they were hearing the death knell from the King of Hell!
Seeing this, Bai Zihe said calmly, "Since you are loyal to me, I will naturally protect you and ensure your safety."
"Don't be afraid, eat what you should eat, drink what you should drink."
The two exchanged glances, and their hearts suddenly rejoiced!
Bai Zihe remained calm and composed, clearly not taking Zhao Qingtian's order seriously.
They were saved!
"Chen Zhennan, Hong Tianyin!"
"You can't escape, come down and surrender!"
The impatient voice downstairs repeatedly broadcasted through the loudspeaker.
But the two, having received Bai Zihe's assurance, and knowing that the person who came was Fu Long, a general under Zhao Qingtian, not Zhao Qingtian himself, simply didn't take them seriously.
They decided to eat and drink heartily.
A few minutes passed.
Seeing that the two were stubborn, Fu Long became enraged and personally led dozens of soldiers to arrest Chen Zhennan and Hong Tianyin!
Clang!
He kicked open the door of the private room.
But upon seeing the scene inside the private room, Fu Long's anger flared, and his rage surged!
Good heavens!
Not only did Hong Tianyin and Chen Zhennan ignore his shouts, but they were also leisurely eating meat and drinking wine!
How happy they were!
"Criminal Chen Zhennan, criminal Hong Tianyin!"
"You are both the parents and officials of Suhang, yet you aided and abetted evil, massacred the citizens of Suhang and friends from Yingguo, and your crimes deserve death. You are now being arrested by General Fu Long!"
Fu Long furiously read the order and then roared:
"Guards, capture them!"
Swish!!!
More than a dozen people behind him instantly surrounded the private room!
"Wait!"
Hong Tianyin picked up a piece of meat with his chopsticks and put it into his mouth, then slowly said, "Director Chen and I are both working for our master!"
"If you want to arrest us..."
"It depends on whether our master agrees or not!"
What?!
Fu Long was so angry his neck twisted!
He was acting under Zhao Qingtian's military orders, and these two, one a Dragon Country official and the other a high-ranking military official, had actually recognized someone as their master?
And they used him to resist Zhao Qingtian's military order!
This was blatant contempt!
Fu Long, with anger mixed with disdain, said, "Then tell me, who is your master?"
The two looked at Bai Zihe simultaneously.
Bai Zihe looked up and said indifferently, "I, Bai Zihe."
