Chapter 298 Just Encounter
Li Youquan's expression told her that this matter might not be that simple.
"Also, if anything really happens, you must follow my instructions and not act on your own."
Li Youquan continued to remind her, fearing that the little girl might get into trouble.
“We are a team and need to trust and support each other.”
Li Youquan's words made Li Xiaoxuan feel a little impatient, but she still listened patiently.
She knew that Li Youquan's nagging was all for her own good, so that their plan could proceed smoothly.
Finally, Li Xiaoxuan couldn't help but waved her hand to interrupt Li Youquan's nagging.
She knew that Li Youquan cared about her, but she didn't want to be nagged by him all the time.
Seeing Li Xiaoxuan's appearance, Li Youquan could only shake his head helplessly.
He knew that although this little girl was sometimes willful, she was still very reliable at critical moments.
Bai Ling couldn't help but burst out laughing when she saw this scene.
She felt that these two guys were really lovable in their own ways, and it made people want to get close to them.
The three of them walked together on the journey to the department store. The scenery and breeze along the way seemed to add a bit of joy to them.
They were laughing and chatting animatedly, but Li Youquan and Bai Ling were paying close attention to what was happening around them between their laughter.
Just as they were about to reach the entrance of the department store, a familiar figure came into their sight.
That was Xu Damao. He seemed to be talking to someone and looked a little nervous.
As soon as Li Youquan's gaze touched him, Xu Damao seemed to sense something and his eyes immediately dodged, as if he was afraid of having too much interaction with them.
At this moment, Li Youquan and Bai Ling both keenly noticed the unusualness in this.
Their brows were slightly furrowed, as if they were thinking about the reasons behind all this.
"Sister Bai Ling, do you know? I heard that the department store recently bought a new batch of cosmetics, and I heard that the effects are very good! How about we go in and take a look? Let Brother Youquan treat us!"
Li Xiaoxuan excitedly took Bai Ling's hand and shared her little intelligence.
Her voice was not small, so Xu Damao, who was standing not far away, also heard her words clearly, which made his nervous expression relax a little.
Xu Damao originally wanted to avoid them, but if he dodged immediately when he saw them, such behavior would obviously be too abnormal and would easily arouse their suspicion.
Therefore, he could only bite the bullet, stand still, and try his best to make his performance look natural.
But how could he escape Li Youquan's attention with such strange behavior?
Almost at the moment he reacted, Li Youquan realized that the identity of the person standing next to Xu Damao was definitely not simple, and he was probably the enemy spy they were looking for.
As the three people gradually approached, Li Xiaoxuan finally noticed Xu Damao's presence.
She widened her eyes and rolled her eyes almost to the sky, obviously she didn't have much good impression of Xu Damao.
"Brother Li."
After seeing them, Xu Damao called out to them somewhat at a loss, with a slight tremor in his voice.
He tried his best to avoid looking at Li Youquan, as if he was afraid that his unusual behavior would attract their attention.
However, Li Youquan and Bai Ling did not show too much surprise or anger.
They knew that now was not the time to alert the enemy and they needed to remain calm and continue observing.
Li Xiaoxuan on the side obviously didn't have such good patience.
She snorted coldly, looking at Xu Damao with eyes full of disdain and anger.
Obviously, she still remembered everything Xu Damao had done before, and her disgust for Xu Damao was beyond words.
"Let's go. There's nothing to talk to this kind of person."
Li Xiaoxuan held Bai Ling and Li Youquan's hands and walked into the department store.
She seemed to want to get rid of Xu Damao, the troublesome person, as soon as possible to avoid any further trouble.
Seeing their backs gradually walking away, Xu Damao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew that he had successfully avoided this turmoil, but the uneasiness in his heart did not dissipate.
He knew that his relationship with them had become delicate, and the road ahead might not be easy.
Only after the three of them completely disappeared from his sight did Xu Damao finally withdrew his gaze from the door and looked at the person standing next to him.
There was a hint of inquiry in his eyes, after all, the man's face looked really bad.
"That man just now should be the director of the Intelligence Department, right? Why did he suddenly appear here? Has he discovered our whereabouts?"
The man's voice was low and nervous, and he was obviously a little worried about Li Youquan's appearance just now.
The person standing next to Xu Damao was dressed in a low-key manner, but his temperament could not be ignored.
He immediately became alert, and a hint of solemnity flashed in his eyes.
People of their status already knew Li Youquan very well and knew how powerful he was.
Li Youquan's sudden appearance undoubtedly brought them considerable pressure.
Xu Damao thought for a moment, lowered his voice, and spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"It shouldn't be. It should be just a coincidence that they came here today. Didn't Li Xiaoxuan say she was coming to buy something? They might just be passing by."
Hearing this, the man's worries were slightly alleviated.
He also remembered what Li Xiaoxuan had just said, and felt relieved.
However, he still did not dare to be careless. After all, the appearance of Li Youquan made their original plan more complicated.
Although the man still had some doubts in his heart, he didn't say anything more.
He was well aware that he and Xu Damao had special identities and could not easily reveal their whereabouts.
So he became more cautious and always paid attention to the movements around him.
"Anyway, let's just hold off today."
The man took a deep breath and said.
"Li Youquan's presence makes me uneasy. We can't take any risks."
After saying this, he turned and left without giving Xu Damao any chance to refute.
Xu Damao looked at his departing back. Although he felt a little unwilling, he also understood that the current situation was not suitable for any rash actions.
Li Youquan, who had just walked in, gave Bai Ling a subtle look, hinting at his intention.
Bai Ling nodded in understanding, and without Li Xiaoxuan noticing, Li Youquan slowly fell behind by several steps.
He kept a certain distance to avoid attracting Li Xiaoxuan's attention.
After a while, Li Youquan appeared at the entrance of the department store again.
When he came out, he happened to see the man leaving, so he quickly hid behind the pillar behind the mall door.
He carefully watched the man's movements to make sure he would not be discovered.
