"Could it be that Xiao Yifei rescued Tang Rong and left afterward?" At this moment, Hua Xiangrong could only comfort herself this way. It's better to go back and wait for Xiao Yifei's news. With this thought, Hua Xiangrong left with a group of people. However, she would never have imagined that at this moment, Xiao Yifei had already been taken away by Ci Xin.

"Where is this place?" Xiao Yifei opened his eyes, slowly sat up from the ground, rubbed his aching head, and then realized that he had been knocked out by Ci Xin. Yet, Xiao Yifei was still unsure of his current whereabouts, so he looked around.

The room was pitch-black with tall windows and a door made of iron bars. The solitary bed made it clear that this was a prison, and Xiao Yifei was being held in a cell. Upon realizing he was in prison, Xiao Yifei couldn't help but frown.

Since Xiao Yifei was brought here by Ci Xin, it was obvious who had locked him up. Indeed, when Ci Xin ordered his men to take Xiao Yifei away that day, they transported him to this prison.

Xiao Yifei's mind was entirely on how Ci Xin had easily manipulated a prison. Could this prison belong to Ci Xin? With this thought, Xiao Yifei suddenly saw a patrolling prison guard and quickly approached him, "Hey, brother."

This prison guard seemed to have been there for many years. Seeing a prisoner trying to get chummy with him, the guard wasn't wary and turned to look at Xiao Yifei, asking what he wanted. Seeing this, Xiao Yifei smiled at the guard. After all, trying to get close to someone involves smiling.

"Hey, brother. You must be the boss here, right?" Xiao Yifei said, his eyes constantly scanning the guard, as if to say, "You have the air of a leader." Hearing this, the guard felt secretly pleased but quickly replied, "No, no, no."

Seeing this, Xiao Yifei took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire, "Ah, a person with such presence as yours isn't the boss here? What a waste of talent." Saying this, Xiao Yifei feigned a look of regret, and indeed, the guard was so flattered by Xiao Yifei's words that he asked what Xiao Yifei needed, promising to help with anything.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yifei smiled and said, "I just want to know who your boss is?" The guard, still amused by Xiao Yifei's praise, replied, "Our boss is called Ci Xin." Saying this, he even gave a thumbs up behind him, as if saying his boss was formidable.

The guard's answer did not surprise Xiao Yifei. It was expected that Ci Xin had influence here since he could imprison Xiao Yifei. After chatting casually with the guard for a while, the guard went off to tend to his own duties.

Originally there to rescue Tang Rong, he ended up imprisoned. Xiao Yifei felt somewhat depressed thinking about this. Despite his frustration, Xiao Yifei was at a loss for what to do now that he was locked up, especially since it was his first time in prison.

Not knowing how much time had passed, Xiao Yifei felt somewhat bored and started walking around his room. Since there was only a bed for rest, Xiao Yifei could only wander around the prison with nothing else to do.

Just then, Xiao Yifei suddenly heard a voice, "Hey, young man. Just arrived, huh? Feeling bored with nothing to do?" The voice belonged to a man, and for some reason, it sounded familiar to Xiao Yifei. So, upon hearing it, he immediately stopped in his tracks, his face showing some confusion.

Hearing Xiao Yifei stop, the man chuckled and then said to him, "It's okay. You'll get used to it." The man's tone was so carefree, suggesting he had been in prison for a long time.

Feeling this, Xiao Yifei curiously called out, "Senior?" Saying this, he leaned closer to the left wall, as he had heard the voice coming from the room on his left. Sure enough, once he moved closer, the man's voice became much clearer.

"What senior? I'm just another inmate." The man chuckled bitterly at Xiao Yifei's address. Hearing this, Xiao Yifei found the man quite interesting, and though he couldn't identify him, he was keen to interact with him.

"Haha, you're so free-spirited." Xiao Yifei said with a smile. Hearing this, the man gave a bitter laugh and said, "I've been here so long that I've seen through it all." Hearing the bitterness in the man's words, Xiao Yifei sighed. If Ci Xin never let him go, Xiao Yifei feared he'd end up like the man sooner or later.

The man suddenly coughed and then asked, "Brother, how did you end up in here?" This question caught Xiao Yifei off guard, as he had committed no crimes; he was simply thrown in here. However, he told the man he was here for fraud.

Hearing this, the man joked, asking if everything Xiao Yifei said was another lie. For a moment, the oppressive prison atmosphere felt a bit lighter thanks to the man. Xiao Yifei and the man chatted away, and suddenly, Xiao Yifei didn't feel so bored anymore.

After an unknown amount of time talking, the man suddenly mentioned he was going to sleep. Hearing this, Xiao Yifei looked out the window and realized it had gotten dark. So he didn't stop the man. But before the man went to sleep, Xiao Yifei suddenly asked, "We've talked for so long, but I still don't know your name."

After asking, Xiao Yifei quietly waited for the man's response. After a moment, he heard the man chuckle and say, "Bai Long, surname Liu, Liu Bailong!"

The man spoke lightly, but upon hearing it, Xiao Yifei was shocked. Liu Bailong? Wasn't he Liu Rui's father? It turned out this place was where Liu Bailong was imprisoned, a place Xiao Yifei had visited before. He was at a loss for words. The world truly was a small place.

Xiao Yifei couldn't help but marvel at this. However, just as he was about to talk to Liu Bailong again, he realized there was no response from the other side. It seemed Liu Bailong had fallen asleep. Xiao Yifei wasn't in a rush to find him since this was a prison. The person next door wouldn't suddenly disappear, so Xiao Yifei lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

Early the next morning, since Hua Xiangrong hadn't found Xiao Yifei the previous day, she was very worried. So, she went straight to Hua Mansion, intending to discuss the matter with Old Hua. After all, it had been two days, and even if Xiao Yifei had rescued someone, he should have returned by now. But he hadn't, and even Hua Xiangrong couldn't reach him by phone.

However, upon arriving at Hua Mansion, she found Qianxi and the others there. Seeing this, Hua Xiangrong could no longer hold back and decided to tell everyone about Xiao Yifei's situation. Hearing what Hua Xiangrong said, everyone's expressions were somewhat surprised.
