Chapter 458 A Moment of Hesitation
"Thank you, Dad." Fei Peng felt a surge of warmth in his heart, but then he thought of his current situation, and his heart grew heavier. "Actually, I've run into some trouble recently."
"What trouble?" The father's voice immediately became tense, clearly frightened by his words. "Tell me quickly, has someone been bullying you?"
“No, I just…” Fei Peng hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided not to reveal everything he was involved in. “I have some things to take care of outside, so it’s not convenient for me to do so right now.”
"Just be careful and don't overexert yourself," the father instructed, his voice filled with deep concern. "We've been waiting for you to come back."
Fei Peng felt a surge of emotion and secretly vowed to find a solution to the problem so his family would no longer worry. He thought of Lin Xue's courage and perseverance, and a thought struck him: "Perhaps I should also bravely face this storm."
“I will, Dad.” He took a deep breath, trying to make his voice sound firm. “Don’t worry, I’ll take care of myself.”
"Okay, I'm relieved to hear that." A hint of comfort crept into the father's voice. "Be careful, and remember to call us."
"I know, Dad." Fei Peng felt a surge of warmth in his heart and finally hung up the phone. Despite his predicament, he felt a strong motivation, as if the support of his family was the light guiding him through the darkness.
"Have you finished your call?" Lin Xue's eyes were full of curiosity, as if she was waiting for his answer.
"Yes, everything's fine at home." Fei Peng smiled slightly, trying to appear relaxed, but he was still tense inside. He knew he had to be even more careful to ensure their safety.
"That's good." Lin Xue nodded, her eyes shining with understanding. She seemed to sense Fei Peng's pressure and said softly, "We should go find that customer now."
“Yes, we can’t waste any more time.” Fei Peng’s heart stirred, and he silently reminded himself that he couldn’t hesitate any longer. He looked in the direction of the gym, a sense of unease and anticipation rising in his heart, “I hope he can tell me something important.”
They walked slowly towards the gym, but Fei Peng's mind was still racing. "Who exactly is that customer? Why is he contacting the man in black?" He felt a vague unease, sensing that there were more secrets hidden behind this chase.
"Feipeng, you're overthinking it. Relax a little," Lin Xue suddenly said, her voice gentle, yet like a breeze that soothed his unease.
"I know." Fei Peng forced a smile, but his heart remained unsettled. Even with Lin Xue by his side, he still felt that the unknown ahead was like a dark tunnel, suffocating him.
Pushing open the gym door, a wave of warm air rushed in. Fei Peng felt a slight sense of relief, but then a wave of tension washed over him. He noticed that the atmosphere in the gym was completely different from usual; the once bustling environment was now unusually quiet, with only a few gym-goers practicing in a corner, their whispers barely audible.
"Feipeng, do you think he'll be here?" Lin Xue asked from the side, her eyes searching around, looking somewhat nervous.
"I hope so." Fei Peng's heart raced, and he prayed silently, "As long as I find him, I can find all the answers." He scanned his surroundings, searching for that familiar figure.
"Do you think he'll know we're looking for him?" Lin Xue suddenly asked, her tone revealing a hint of worry.
“I don’t know, but I have to try.” Fei Peng said, thinking to himself, “If he really is in contact with the men in black, it might be even more dangerous, but I have to take the risk.”
They wandered around the gym, Fei Peng's gaze never wavering, his anxiety growing. "Where is it?" he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Just then, Fei Peng's eyes lit up as he spotted a familiar figure standing beside the training equipment. His heart leaped into his throat, and he whispered to Lin Xue, "It's him!"
Lin Xue followed his gaze, a mixture of surprise and anticipation appearing on her face. "Go find him quickly!" she said, her eyes sparkling with hope.
Fei Peng walked towards the man without hesitation, feeling a surge of unease: "I hope he can give me some clues." He approached the customer, trying to appear calm, but his inner tension only intensified.
"Hello, I'd like to ask you something," Fei Peng said, his voice urgent and earnest. He knew he couldn't delay any longer and had to unravel this mystery as soon as possible.
The customer turned around, looking at him with slight surprise and a hint of wariness in his eyes. "Who are you? I don't remember you."
“My name is Huang Feipeng. We met at the gym before.” Feipeng’s heart tightened, but he tried to remain calm and continued, “I want to know about your relationship with the man in black.”
"What are you talking about?" The customer's expression changed slightly, clearly confused by Fei Peng's words.
“They’re looking for me. I want to know why you’re in contact with them,” Fei Peng insisted, a sense of unease creeping into his heart. “This isn’t a simple question.”
"I don't know what you're talking about." The customer's eyes began to flicker, seemingly avoiding Fei Peng's gaze. His attitude made Fei Peng uneasy, thinking, "Could he really be connected to the man in black?"
“Please listen to me carefully,” Fei Peng continued, his tone becoming increasingly firm. “I don’t want to hurt you, but if you don’t tell me the truth, I might be in even greater danger.”
The customer's face gradually darkened, and Fei Peng sensed his hesitation and fear. "The more you know, the better for all of us," Fei Peng added, silently vowing, "I must get the answer."
Lin Xue watched quietly from the side, seemingly cheering Fei Peng on silently. A hint of encouragement in her eyes warmed Fei Peng's heart.
“I can help you, but this is complicated,” the customer finally spoke, a hint of unease in his eyes. “If I tell you, I might get into trouble.”
Fei Peng was overwhelmed with complex emotions, a mixture of anger and anxiety. He knew that the customer before him seemed to know something about the men in black, yet remained hesitant. He desperately wanted to break through this barrier: "If you know anything, please tell me. If this continues, I and those around me will be threatened."
The customer's eyes flickered, as if he was weighing something. He hesitated for a moment, then finally said in a low voice, "I know the danger you're facing, but I also have my concerns. This whole thing is too complicated, and I don't want to get involved."
