Chapter 721 - 718 Excited

"Did I say something too harsh just now?" Gu Xiangyi looked at Xu Xiangbei, who had slammed the door and left, with a hint of doubt in her eyes. Logically, Xu Xiangbei shouldn’t be like this. Could there be some hidden truth behind this matter?

"Forget it, am I really concerned about him because of this? Is this still me?" In the next second, Gu Xiangyi dismissed the thought. That bastard Xu Xiangbei, Gu Xiangyi never wanted to hear any news about him ever again!

"Where should I go?" Meanwhile, Gu Xinyan sat despondently on the plane bound for another country, wondering where she could go now.

"Nobody move!" Just as Gu Xin was mired in sadness, several masked men in black with guns suddenly appeared on the plane, shouting menacingly at them!

"What’s happening!" Gu Xinran widened his eyes in shock, realizing that he seemed to be hijacked by robbers!

...

"Damn it, why are both of these women so unreasonable!" On the other side, Xu Xiangbei had moved back to his original courtyard house from Spring Villa, sulking over Gu Xiangyi and Gu Xinyan. Why didn’t these two come and ask him for the truth but instead blew up at him? This was completely unreasonable!

"Tang Xinyi, you bastard, I’ll never let you off!" Thinking about the damned Tencent and Xu Xiangbei, he gritted his teeth. If it wasn’t for Tang Xinyi’s words, Gu Xiangyi and Gu Xinyan wouldn’t have been so unhappy with him, and Gu Xiangyi even went abroad!

"Alas, I wonder how Gu Xinyan is doing now!" Thinking about Gu Xinyan sitting on that plane, Xu Xiangbei’s face was full of melancholy. She hadn’t even called back for so long, which worried Xu Xiangbei sick!

"Ring! Ring!" Just then, Xu Xiangbei’s phone suddenly rang. When he unlocked the phone, it turned out to be Guo Lijun!

"Why is he calling me? Is something wrong?" A hint of doubt flashed in Xu Xiangbei’s eyes as he answered Guo Lijun’s call.

"Xu Xiangbei, something’s wrong, the plane that Gu Xinyan is on has been hijacked! You need to come over quickly, let’s figure out a solution!" After the call connected, Guo Lijun’s extremely anxious voice came through, and upon hearing his words, Xu Xiangbei immediately jumped to his feet. How could such a thing happen!

"Alright, you wait over there, I’ll be right there!" After two seconds, Xu Xiangbei calmed himself down. Being anxious wouldn’t solve anything right now; only by calming down and thinking of a solution could he take the right course of action!

...

"Tell me, what exactly happened? Why was the plane Gu Xinyan was on hijacked?"

After a while, Xu Xiangbei arrived at the location of the plane, now surrounded by a large crowd of police. It was imaginable that those inside the plane were facing death threats from the hijackers!

"I don’t know what’s happening either, but what we know now is that the police have been in a standoff with the hijackers for a day and night. Information has been blocked from the outside, and the hijackers are extremely ruthless, with demands that are equally stringent. They want 50 million US dollars, three hundred million RMB, from the police, or they’ll kill all the hostages on the plane! There’s no way the police can meet their demands, so we’re here racking our brains!"

Seeing Xu Xiangbei finally arrive, Guo Lijun quickly ran over and briefed him on what happened and the current situation.

"Do you have the authority to let me participate in the rescue operation?" Hearing Guo Lijun’s words, a look of urgency appeared in Xu Xiangbei’s eyes. He knew how vicious these hijackers could be. If the police didn’t meet their demands, they would definitely kill all the hostages!

"Sigh, I don’t have the authority to let you join the rescue right now. Do you have any plan on your side? You’re the only one who can save Gu Xinyan now, as the police can’t come up with those 50 million US dollars. In other words, the hijackers on the plane actually have the upper hand at the moment. If they decide to burn bridges, we have no way to counter them!" Guo Lijun was also looking helpless; he didn’t have the authority to let Xu Xiangbei join the rescue!

"Sigh, just don’t worry for now, I’ll handle this matter." Xu Xiangbei nodded calmly, signaling to Guo Lijun to remain calm, then pulled a phone from his pocket and dialed a number.

"Lao Li, can you let me join the rescue for this incident? There’s someone incredibly important to me on that plane, and I must ensure his safety!" As soon as the call connected, Xu Xiangbei urgently spoke to the person on the other end!

"Xiao Xu, are you sure? These hijackers are different from the usual criminals. They’re extremely brutal, and their equipment is top-notch, with high anti-surveillance capabilities. I suspect these hijackers are former international mercenaries, and it’s unclear why they’ve come to our country to hijack a plane. There might be things we don’t know about!" A serious voice came from the other end, and Xu Xiangbei frowned, realizing this hijacking was not simple!

"These things are secondary. I must join this rescue operation because there’s someone incredibly important to me on that plane. If I can’t ensure his safety, then I can’t live either!" Xu Xiangbei was extremely anxious; he felt massively responsible for Gu Xinyan ending up on that flight, ultimately leading to the hijacking.

"Alright, if you insist, I’ll talk to the team leaders and have them let you join, but listen carefully, you mustn’t act rashly during this operation. If your recklessness causes the hostages’ deaths, you’ll be in deep trouble!"

After hesitating for a few seconds, the voice on the other end finally agreed, bringing a smile of relief to Xu Xiangbei’s face as he responded excitedly:

"Lao Li, thank you! Once this is over, I’d love to treat you to a meal!"

"Haha, no need for that. Just make sure all the hostages make it out alive. Achieving that will make me very happy!"

Laughs echoed from the other end before the phone was hung up, showing that the caller understood Xu Xiangbei’s urgency.

"Alright, it seems like I can participate in this mission! Gu Xinyan, trust me, you’ll be alright!" Hanging up the phone, Xu Xiangbei was visibly excited. By joining the operation, he believed he could protect Gu Xinyan from any harm from the hijackers!

"Who here is named Xu Xiangbei?" A few minutes later, a SWAT team captain called out to the crowd, and hearing this, a thrill of excitement crossed Xu Xiangbei’s face as he quickly moved toward them!
