Chapter 249: Chapter 0249 Strange Case

Everyone had their own hidden agendas, but at Chu Feng’s table, there was nothing but laughter and joy.

Under everyone’s encouragement, Zhuang Xinyan gave a singing performance, mesmerizing everyone with her voice.

Such a talent as Zhuang Xinyan, Chu Feng really didn’t know if there was anything she wasn’t good at.

They played until six in the morning when Dong Kai finally arranged for cars to take everyone back to school.

"Thank you, Dong Kai," Chu Feng said as he approached Dong Kai.

Dong Kai hurriedly replied with respect, "Brother Feng, you’re too polite. This is what I should do."

Chu Feng patted Dong Kai on the shoulder, then got into the car Dong Kai had arranged for him, ready to go home.

"So early in the morning, and you’re all spaced out," Chu Feng said.

Fan Xiaoxiao looked up, saw it was Chu Feng, and immediately threw herself into his arms.

She burst into tears with a ’wah’.

"What’s the matter? Who’s bullying you? I’ll help you get back at them," said Chu Feng, seeing the usually upbeat Fan Xiaoxiao crying, he couldn’t help but speak out.

"Chu Feng, you’re finally back," Cui Jingyan, who had run out after him, also breathed a sigh of relief.

Chu Feng asked, "What happened? Is something wrong?"

Cui Jingyan explained, "Xiaoxiao heard that her grandfather was taken away by the military, and she is desperate to save him. We know you have some connection with the military, so we wanted to find you, but your phone was off."

Chu Feng took out his phone, realized it was dead, and said, "My phone ran out of battery. Sister Yan, get me a non-smartphone tomorrow. Smartphones are great, but they really don’t last long enough."

"Alright, Xiaoxiao, stop crying. Tell me the details first, then I’ll help you find out what happened," Chu Feng said as he patted Fan Xiaoxiao’s back.

Upon hearing Chu Feng’s words, Fan Xiaoxiao quieted down, then said with tearful, pitiful eyes, "Boss, you have to save my grandfather."

Chu Feng nodded seriously and said, "I will use all my resources to save your grandfather. Tell me what happened first."

Fan Xiaoxiao nodded, then relayed the situation with her grandfather to Chu Feng.

It turned out that Fan Xiaoxiao’s grandfather was indeed an archaeologist, and a very famous one at that. Some of the things she knew about antiques, she had learned by watching her grandfather.

Fan Xiaoxiao had been raised by her grandparents, which is why she was so close to them.

That morning, her grandmother had told her that a group of soldiers had suddenly taken away her grandfather, and she didn’t know why. This was why Fan Xiaoxiao was so anxious.

Chu Feng said, "Xiaoxiao, don’t panic. From what your grandmother said, your grandfather should be fine. If the military asked for your grandfather so politely, they must need his help. I’ll make a call and see where they took him."

Before Chu Feng could make that call, Gu Zhong’s call came in first.

Chu Feng hesitated for a moment but picked up the phone.

"Brother, do you have a moment? I’ve encountered a very tricky problem, could you come over and help me?" Gu Zhong said with urgency in his voice.

Chu Feng asked, "What happened?"

Gu Zhong said, "I’m here at the East River Military Region. There’s a very strange case that’s both troublesome and important. Can you come over?"

Chu Feng frowned and replied, "Alright, have someone come to pick me up. But first I need to find someone."

Gu Zhong asked, "Find someone? Who? Let the military here help you search, they’ll be faster. You come here first."

Chu Feng suddenly felt moved. If he could avoid troubling Huang Lan, he really didn’t want to bother him.

Chu Feng said, "The person I’m looking for was also taken by the military. He’s an archaeologist named Fan Ting’an."

Gu Zhong said, "Junior brother, you don’t need to look for him anymore; he’s in the barracks and is also helping out. Just come over."

When Chu Feng heard that Fan Ting’an was also in the barracks, he said, "Alright then, send a car to pick me up, and I’ll come directly."

Gu Zhong seemed to hand the phone to someone else, and soon, Wang Teng’s voice came through, "Brother Chu, give me your address, and I’ll send someone to pick you up shortly."

Chu Feng reported an address and then hung up the phone.

"Has my grandfather been found?" Fan Xiaoxiao asked, looking nervous.

Chu Feng smiled and said, "He’s been found. Your grandfather is helping the military."

Fan Xiaoxiao asked, "Then can I go see my grandfather?"

Chu Feng said, "Of course you can."

Technically, civilians are not allowed to enter the military administration area, but with Chu Feng’s status, bringing someone in obviously wouldn’t be a problem.

"Boss, thank you," Fan Xiaoxiao said with rare sincerity.

Chu Feng smiled and said, "You’re my employee; I’m still counting on you to make money for me. How can you earn money if you’re worried? Go change your clothes, someone will be here to pick us up soon."

Fan Xiaoxiao nodded, then hurried upstairs to change her clothes.

"It’s a good thing you came back, or else we wouldn’t have known what to do," Cui Jingyan said.

Chu Feng smiled and said, "So you’re saying a home can’t be without a man?"

Cui Jingyan said, "We do have men in our home; it’s just that he’s never around and his phone is always turned off."

Chu Feng said, "Sister Yan, get me one of those phones that don’t need to be recharged for several dozen days, and I’ll make sure you can find us twenty-four hours a day."

Fan Xiaoxiao quickly changed her clothes, and at this time, Chu Feng’s phone rang again.

"Brother Chu, head to the central lawn of your residential complex. My people will be there soon," Wang Teng said.

Chu Feng replied and then led Fan Xiaoxiao to the lawn.

"Why come to the lawn?" Cui Jingyan was a bit puzzled.

However, when she saw a military helicopter flying from a distance, getting closer, she understood why they came to the lawn: it was the only place where the helicopter could land.

Seeing that Wang Teng came to pick him up in a helicopter, Chu Feng realized the situation must be quite serious.

"Isn’t this a bit too extravagant?" Fan Xiaoxiao exclaimed, her mouth wide open, as she watched the helicopter.

Knowing her grandfather was fine, Fan Xiaoxiao also recovered a lot.

"Boss, you’re so awesome. I’ve never been on a helicopter before. You have to protect me later," Fan Xiaoxiao said, clinging to Chu Feng’s arm.

Cui Jingyan joked, "I hear the air pressure is quite high up there, so be careful not to burst if you keep holding onto Chu Feng like that."

Fan Xiaoxiao replied, "I’m serious, okay? You’ve touched them with your own hands."

Chu Feng, hearing such a conversation, broke out in a cold sweat.

Only people as straightforward as Fan Xiaoxiao and Cui Jingyan could discuss such a topic upon seeing a military helicopter approaching.

The helicopter landed, and someone disembarked, came up to Chu Feng, saluted formally, and said, "Good to see you, sir!"
