Chapter 819 Whereabouts
Xie Zhiyuan rushed back to the village, searched most of the village, and finally found the four sacred beasts of Yunmiao Village, Xiaohulu, Guobao, Tuotuo and Huzi.

After finding the four little guys, Xie Zhiyuan asked, "Were you four eavesdropping outside my house last night?"

The four little guys looked at each other, and finally Hu Zi was smarter and confessed without asking:
"No, we didn't eavesdrop outside Brother Yuan's house, and we didn't hear you poop in your pants at school!"

This is a case of trying to cover up one's own guilt. Xie Zhiyuan didn't even ask what the matter was, but Hu Zi confessed.
"It's over. My reputation is ruined!"

At this time, the four little guys looked at each other and saw that something was wrong.

"Run!" The four little guys screamed and ran away at the same time.

The truth was revealed. Xie Zhiyuan thought that the whole village knew about his affairs and felt that there was no place for him in the village anymore.

······
In the evening, Lin Hao and Xu Hongdou returned to the Fengyuan Courtyard.

When passing by Xie Zhiyao's house, I learned from him that Xie Zhiyao had run away from home.

Xu Hongdou couldn't help but look at Lin Hao. She didn't expect that he was right.

Thinking of this, Xu Hongdou couldn't help but say, "Since Ayuan ran away from home, let us help you look for him."

Xie Zhiyao shook his head and said:

"Before you came back, I had already searched the village, but couldn't find it. You are not familiar with this place, so leave it to me. If even I can't find it, there is no way you can find it!"

Lin Hao patted his shoulder and said seriously:

"Thank you, Boss. Although Ayuan is a smart guy, I think it's best to find him as soon as possible, or at least keep track of his whereabouts. Otherwise, if something happens, it will be too late to regret it!"

Xie Zhiyao nodded solemnly and said:
"I thought so too, but he's not a child anymore. Even if he's angry, he'll have a plan in mind, so nothing should happen!"

"I just don't know where Ayuan will go?" Xie Zhiyao frowned.

Although Lin Hao knew that Xie Zhiyuan went to the ancient city to find his good friend Aliang, Lin Hao was not in a position to tell him the answer directly.

Lin Hao thought about it and reminded:

"Then think about who his friends are here. Maybe he went to see his friends. And he left in such a hurry that he didn't have much money on him!"

"He didn't have much money on him when he left, so he probably didn't go far. If he wanted to go far, then~!"

After Lin Hao's reminder, Xie Zhiyao thought of something and then said:

"No need to say more. I roughly guessed who he went to see. I'll go ask him!"

Looking at Xie Zhiyao who was hurrying towards the woodcarving workshop, Lin Hao felt that the plot didn't seem to have changed much. He might as well make it more difficult for them. Lin Hao already had an idea in his mind.

Seeing Lin Hao looking thoughtful, Xu Hongdou jokingly asked, "What bad idea are you thinking of?"

"What bad ideas can I come up with? Even if I have any, they're meant for you!"

That night, Xie Zhiyao learned from Xie Xiaoxia that Xiaoliang was in the ancient city, so he went directly to find Xiaoliang and discovered that Xie Zhiyuan was really with Xiaoliang.

Knowing that Xie Zhiyuan was fine, he was completely relieved. However, he knew that his younger brother was shy and would definitely not be willing to go back with him at this time.

Moreover, Xie Zhiyao also wanted his younger brother to suffer a little in the ancient city so that he would not be like a child who had not grown up.

However, for safety reasons, he still found Xiao Liang privately, warned him, asked him to take good care of Xie Zhiyuan, and then went straight back to Yunmiao Village.

······
next day
After spending some time together, the people in Youfeng Courtyard have basically become familiar with each other. It’s not that they have a deep relationship, but they are considered acquaintances.

Hu Youyu is running towards a better future, and he is leaving today. All the people in Youfeng Courtyard gather together and send Hu Youyu to the village entrance.

"Teacher Hu, I wish you a bright future~!"

"Teacher Hu, I wish you success in your career~!"

"Teacher Hu, I wish you a great success~!"

Everyone offered their blessings, and Hu Youyu looked at everyone and thanked them one by one.

"Thank you, thank you everyone. I also wish you all happiness and health, and may all your wishes come true!"

Afterwards, they exchanged some pleasantries until the car they had arranged stopped in front of them. Hu Youyu then looked at everyone reluctantly, especially Xu Hongdou.

Then he resolutely got in the car, said goodbye to everyone, and murmured to himself:

"I like you, but you don't belong to me~!"

As they got farther and farther away from Yunmiao Village, Hu Youyu gradually felt relieved~!

Hu Youyu's departure had no impact on Lin Hao and Xu Hongdou, but they had basically seen all the beautiful scenery near Yunmiao Village, so they began their retirement life.

Xu Hongdou went to the restaurant to help out, and Lin Hao went to the wood carving workshop to carve, and they lived a pretty good life.

······
Several days passed and Xie Zhiyuan still didn't come back.

Xu Hongdou was a little worried. Seeing Lin Hao coming back from the wood carving workshop, she wanted to ask Lin Hao to go with her to find Xie Zhiyao to ask about the situation.

"Brother Lin, Ayuan hasn't come back yet. I think Grandma Xie is so worried!"

"His brother Xie Zhiyao seems to be like nothing happened and not worried at all. Is he really his biological brother?"

These days, when Xu Hongdou saw Grandma Xie, she sighed and worried about her little grandson.

However, Xie Zhiyao continued to do his own work every day. She did not go out to look for Xie Zhiyao, nor did she call the police, which made her, an outsider, anxious. Therefore, she was extremely dissatisfied with Xie Zhiyao's behavior.

Lin Hao touched Xu Hongdou's head, then said with a smile:

"Don't worry, if I'm not mistaken, Xie Zhiyao should have found Ayuan!"

Xu Hongdou dodged Lin Hao's head-patting move and said in astonishment, "Found it? If you found it, why didn't you bring it back?"

"Haha~!" Lin Hao smiled and said to me, "Do you think A Yuan dares to come back given the current public opinion in the village?"

"The reason why Boss Xie didn't bring him back is probably because he has already determined that he is not dangerous and wants him to suffer outside. Only by letting him understand the difficulties of life will he be willing to return to Kunming to study!"

Xu Hongdou looked puzzled and asked, "Did Xie Zhiyao really find it and still want to train A Yuan? How did you know?"

Lin Hao pointed to his eyes and said:

"Of course I can see that. After all, Ayuan is my biological brother. How could Boss Xie not care about him?"

"And he was calm and didn't do anything, which means he was sure of it. If he really hadn't found it, do you think he would still be able to sit still?"

"Is that really the case?" Xu Hongdou was a little unconvinced.

Lin Hao smiled and said, "You'll find out soon. Xie Zhiyao can hold back, but Grandma Xie definitely can't."

"You, that's what it means to be too concerned." Lin Hao took advantage of Xu Hongdou's inattention and patted her head again.

"Hateful~!" Xu Hongdou glared at Lin Hao.

When Xu Hongdou and Lin Hao were being affectionate, they noticed that Xie Zhiyao was driving away in a hurry.

At this time, Nana also came to the door, looking at the flustered Xie Zhiyao, and asked curiously: "What happened to Mr. Xie? It looks like he encountered something urgent!"

Xu Hongdou also frowned and said, "I don't know, why don't you go and ask!"

Finally, the three of them were at Xie Zhiyao's house, listening to Grandma Xie's story. It turned out that Xie Zhiyuan and his son Aliang suddenly disappeared in the ancient city yesterday.

The restaurant where they worked originally thought that the two children were just being naughty and might not be able to stand the hardship of working, so they returned to Yunmiao Village together. However, when they called today, they found out that they did not return to the village.

Xu Hongdou and Nana comforted Grandma Xie, but Lin Hao didn't say anything because he knew what was going on.

Then he used the mental mark to check on Xie Zhiyuan's condition.

It turned out that a few days ago, knowing that Xie Zhiyao wanted to train his younger brother, he did not bring him back, but let him stay in the ancient city restaurant to work and gain experience.

This is exactly the same as the original plot, so Lin Hao plans to increase their intensity.

Lin Hao controlled several people who were engaged in online fraud and tricked Xie Zhiyuan and his good friend A Liang to the north of the city.

Let the people there teach them lessons and help them understand this dangerous world. This is much more difficult than Xie Zhiyao's experience.

Anyway, everything is under Lin Hao's control, so Lin Hao just pretends not to know and is not in a hurry at all.

The news of Xie Zhiyuan's disappearance soon spread throughout the village, and the villagers immediately organized people to search for him in the village and nearby areas.

Just like that, a turbulent night passed, and apart from knowing that Xie Zhiyuan and Aliang left with a few strangers, there was still no other useful information.

next day
As soon as Lin Hao and Xu Hongdou went out, they saw Xie Zhiyao who looked tired.

Lin Hao asked with concern: "Boss Xie, is there any news about A Yuan?"

Xie Zhiyao rubbed his tired face with his hands, and said with all his strength:

"Not yet. Our Ayuan and the others have been kidnapped!"

Lin Hao nodded, and then said:
"Boss Xie, I have some connections with the higher-ups. Give me A Yuan's identity information and I'll help you find his whereabouts!"

"Really? Can we really find out Ayuan's whereabouts?" Xie Zhiyao was immediately cheered up when he heard that.

Lin Hao said calmly:
"Don't worry, as long as Ayuan uses public transportation or appears in the cameras of public facilities, I can find him!"

Xie Zhiyao immediately said gratefully: "Thank you Lin Hao, I will send you A Yuan's information right away. What specific information do you want? Never mind, I will send it all to you!"

Lin Hao said calmly: "ID number, recent photos, the location before the disappearance..."

Lin Hao forwarded the message sent by Xie Zhiyao to his "friends" in the bureau, asking them to help find Xie Zhiyuan.

Of course, you have to look for it, but it doesn’t matter whether you can find it or not.

Because Lin Hao knew where the person was, he just needed to tell Xie Zhiyao at the right time.

······
The next morning, Lin Hao brought Xu Hongdou and found Xie Zhiyao with a heavy face.

Seeing Lin Hao coming, Xie Zhiyao's eyes lit up and he quickly asked, "Have you found A Yuan?"

However, Lin Hao said with a serious expression: "Boss Xie, you may need to be mentally prepared!"

"What?" Xie Zhiyao was shocked, thinking that something had happened to his brother. He forced himself to cheer up and said, "What happened to Ayuan?"

"Don't get excited!" Lin Hao still had no smile on his face, but said with a heavy heart:
"The latest news I got is that Ayuan and Aliang might have been tricked by a group of people and taken to northern Myanmar!"

"I think you should know what this means!"

"What?" Xie Zhiyao's body shook, and he said in panic:
"How is it possible? Once we reach northern Myanmar, there will be no way to survive?"

"What should I do? What should I do?" Xie Zhiyao had been doing business for a long time, and when he encountered something like this, he forced himself to calm down.

He then looked for ways to rescue his brother, but after sorting out his relationships, he found no one who could help him.

Not to mention helping to rescue Ayuan, there was no one even to help find his whereabouts.

At this time, Lin Hao felt that the time was ripe, so he patted Xie Zhiyao on the shoulder and said:

"Boss Xie, don't worry too much. I have some friends abroad. I'll help you get in touch with them first."

"Really?" Like a ray of light in the darkness, it brought hope to Xie Zhiyao.

Then Xie Zhiyao said excitedly, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw:

"Lin Hao, Brother Lin, no matter how much it costs, no matter what the price is, please help me bring A Yuan back!"

"Please!" Xie Zhiyao almost knelt down to Lin Hao.

Then Lin Hao dialed a number and after explaining something, Lin Hao hung up the phone and said to Xie Zhiyao:

"I've already made the arrangements, but I'm going to go there myself just in case."

Upon hearing this, Xie Zhiyao didn't know what to say for a moment and could only keep thanking Lin Hao.

"Ding-ling-ling-ling~!" However, at this moment, Lin Hao's cell phone suddenly rang.

Seeing that it was Chen Nanxing who called, Lin Hao quickly asked: "Nanxing, what's wrong?"

Before Lin Hao could finish his words, Chen Nanxing's joyful voice came:

"Honey, I just had a checkup and my cancer is completely gone!"

"Okay!" Seeing Xu Hongdou looking at him, Lin Hao deliberately asked in disbelief: "Then where are you!"

"I'm at West China Hospital!" Chen Nanxing was so excited about the cure of pancreatic cancer that he uttered incoherently:
"Brother Lin, I miss you!"

"I'm coming to see you!"

"And Red Bean!"

“I’ll book a flight right away!”

"No more talking, I'm going to the airport right now~!"

"Beep, beep, beep~!" Chen Nanxing hung up the phone before Lin Hao could finish his words.

Xu Hongdou thought something happened to Chen Nanxing, so she grabbed Lin Hao's arm and asked, "What happened to Nanxing? What did she say?"

"Is she~!" Xu Hongdou covered her forehead, not daring to think further.

Lin Hao supported Xu Hongdou and then comforted her:
"Don't worry, Nanxing's condition has improved, and he wants to come to the south of the colorful clouds to find us~!"

"Is Nanxing really okay?" Xu Hongdou still didn't quite believe it and thought Lin Hao was just coaxing her.

Lin Hao quickly said: "It's really okay, she has already booked a flight and is on the way to the airport!"

"I'm glad you're okay. I thought something happened to her!" Xu Hongdou felt relieved after hearing that.
