Shi Yuanhang looked intensely in that direction. Then, he turned around and said, "Such a security system is too awesome."
Peter thought so too. His expression changed as he said, "We'll have to change our plan for the next time. Now that we've put them on the alert, I'm afraid it won't be so simple going forward."
"This Mu Xichen is indeed a fool. How much does a villa sell for, to necessitate such an anti-theft system? How could he make any money out of this?" Shi Yuanhang felt around for his cigarette case. His eye flashing and with an icy smirk, he lit a cigarette.
Pete said nothing as he kept his eyes on the drone's control screen.
Without anyone controlling it, the drone gradually lost altitude.
As it fell, a man's face suddenly appeared on the screen.
He appeared to be in his thirties or forties. He was sitting in a wheelchair and looked undeniably gentlemanly and elegant.
When he saw the drone, he seemed surprised, but very quickly he narrowed his eyes and said with a smile."Hit."
An ominous feeling grew in Peter. Sure enough, in the next moment, the drone was attacked.
"No!" Peter's expression completely changed. He immediately slammed on the brakes and reached out in attempt to control the drone.
However, it was too late.
The control screen showed a covering of snow, and a sharp sound could be heard.
In less than a minute, the drone was completely destroyed.
Peter's face turned pale. He slammed the screen against the steering wheel and shouted, "Son of a b****!!"
When Shi Yuanhang saw this, his eyes flashed. He glanced at the rear view mirror and said, "Let's go, they're catching up."
Peter took one glance and immediately lost his mood to pine over his precious drone. He immediately started the car and sped away.
On the other end.
Nico looked at the drone and said, "This is such backward technology, to think they actually use it."
Will thought the same as he stood there holding the drone. He said, "However, the security systems technology used by the Xia people are even better than what we use in our castle. Miss Beinian's husband is really more outstanding than we thought, isn't he?"
Will's unreserved praise for Mu Xichen made Nico smile.
Indeed.
He felt assured handing Beinian over to such a man.
However, Nico didn't speak. He glanced at the drone, then said, "Extract the memory chip, let's see what they're after."
"Yes."
Leaving Will to handle this, Nico picked up his phone and sent a message to Li Beinian: Beinian, it was too amazing just now. There was actually someone who wanted to enter my villa. Fortunately, Tai Chen Group [direct translation from Chinese] has got a harmful [direct translation from Chinese] security system. Otherwise, they'd have crashed [direct translation from Chinese] in. [Smile]
Li Beinian was relieved when she saw this message, feeling more relaxed now, she even corrected him."It's 'Tai Chen Prefecture', not 'Tai Chen Group'. It's 'powerful', not 'harmful' and it's 'barged' in, not 'crashed' in. Hahahaha..."
[Nico]: [Embarrassed smile]
[Beinian]: Have you guys cooked? If not, and if don't mind, why not come to my place for a meal?
Nico's eyes lit up when he read this.
Worried that he might have misunderstood this message, Nico copied the string of text to the translator. After confirming that his understanding was right, he cheered and shouted, "Will, Beinian invited me to dinner!"
Will was very surprised and asked, "Are you sure?"
"Yes, I'm very sure!" Nico smiled and couldn't help himself from venturing a guess."Is it possible that Beinian knows I'm her biological father?"
