American Super Rancher

Chapter 1007 The Disappeared Dale

"Dale?"

Qin Xu was obviously taken aback by Xu Mengyao's question, and looked at the watch on his wrist with some doubts.

"Strange, hasn't she come back yet?"

"Of course, otherwise I would still ask you."

With a charming look at this guy who knew what to ask, Xu Mengyao didn't ask any more questions, turned around and continued to pack her things.

Since Qin Xu didn't want to talk about some things, she wouldn't ask any more.

However, it was obvious that Xu Mengyao had misunderstood this time.

"I didn't send her out, but she said she was going to buy something. Why hasn't she come back yet?"

Qin Xu couldn't sit still when he thought that what Dale wanted to buy would definitely not be available through formal channels, so she might have gone to some dangerous black market.

"What to buy?" Xu Mengyao looked at Qin Xu curiously. Could it be that there is something secret?
"Hey, I said daughter-in-law, what are you thinking?" Somewhat dumbfounded, he sat back on the sofa again, and Qin Xu explained helplessly:

"It's just to buy some security things. Our ranch is so big and our wealth is so rich. We must take security measures well."

"That's true." Nodding in agreement, Xu Mengyao looked at the sky outside, and said worriedly:
"You'd better call and ask, it's so late, don't have any accidents with her as a girl."

"Well, you're right, I'll call and ask." As he said that, Qin Xu didn't bother to see Qin Rou, and took out his mobile phone to call Dale.

However, what made Qin Xu's heart sink was that Dale's phone was actually turned off.

"Shut down? Could it be that the battery is out?" Xu Mengyao also frowned.

However, after all, she didn't know the specific situation, so she didn't think about it in a bad way.

"I don't know, I'll ask again." Shaking his head, Qin Xu called Erica with a serious face.

"Boss, I'm Erica."

The call was quickly connected, and Erica's voice came into Qin Xu's ears through the microphone, and it sounded so capable.

Perhaps this is the characteristic of a professional soldier.

Shaking his head, putting aside those messy thoughts in his mind, Qin Xu asked with a hint of expectation in his tone that even he himself hadn't noticed:
"Erica, can you reach Dale now?"

"Dell? Didn't she go shopping?" Erica raised her wrist to check the time and frowned.

"Boss, wait a minute, I'll ask."

After saying a word, there was no sound on the phone, obviously he had gone to contact someone.

"This guy, he does things in a hurry." Shaking his head, Qin Xu put the phone aside and turned on the speakerphone.

"How to say?"

Xu Mengyao, who didn't hear the specific situation, couldn't help turning her head to look at Qin Xu.

"I don't know, I'll talk about it after she asks." Shaking his head, Qin Xu looked at the time, his brows furrowed even deeper.

It's already past seven o'clock in the evening. Logically speaking, no matter what, Dale should call back.

"Boss, I tried, but I can't contact Dale."

Just as Qin Xu was deep in thought, Erica's voice rang through the speakerphone.

"Can't get in touch yet?" Qin Xu stood up suddenly, and said anxiously: "You come here first, let's look for this girl."

"Okay, boss." Erica agreed, and hung up the phone.

"What's the matter? Still can't contact Dale?" Xu Mengyao, who was on the side, also became a little anxious when she heard this.

"Why don't you call the police, there are surveillance cameras on the road, they should be able to find Dale."

"You can't call the police." Qin Xu shook his head and decisively rejected the proposal.

Are you kidding me?
Knowing that Dale might be buying something from an unknown source, why did he call the police?
"What should I do?"

Seeing that Qin Xu refused to call the police, Xu Mengyao seemed to understand something, and her expression became a little serious.

"It's okay, daughter-in-law, you don't have to worry."

Seeing that Xu Mengyao was also worried, Qin Xu couldn't help but smiled and comforted him:
"It's just to buy a few military monitors, it's not a big deal."

"That's it, that's okay." Xu Mengyao shook her head helplessly after letting out a sigh of relief.

"Husband, this is not our territory after all, it's better to be careful when doing things."

"Of course, don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who messes around." Qin Xu assured, patting his chest.

"Just you? It's weird if you don't mess around."

After giving Qin Xu an angry look, Xu Mengyao stood up and walked upstairs.

"I won't talk about you anymore, I'll go and see Xiaorou, you can figure it out yourself."

"Well, go and see that girl first."

Seeing that Xu Mengyao was so sensible and knew how to avoid these things proactively, Qin Xu couldn't help but smile a little.

There has always been an old saying in China, the man dominates the outside, and the woman dominates the inside.

The meaning is obvious, it is better for women to be less involved in dealing with outsiders.

Even empresses with respected status in ancient times had to abide by the bottom line of not interfering in politics in the harem.

"Boss, what's going on? What mission did Dale go to?"

A moment later, Erica, who came in a hurry, looked at Qin Xu curiously.

She would not think that Qin Xu would arrange any dangerous tasks for Dale.

But since it's not a dangerous mission, how could this girl lose contact?

"I also want to know what's going on."

Lying helplessly on the sofa, Qin Xu briefly told Erica what happened today.

"No, if she's just going shopping, she can't turn off the phone."

Frowning and thinking for a long time, Erica still shook her head helplessly, and she couldn't figure out what went wrong.

As for whether the phone might be out of battery, Erica wouldn't even think about it.

For these bodyguards, no matter what the situation is, it is their first lesson to ensure that they can contact their companions or employers in time.

"In this case, we can only wait for the news." Rubbing his temples, Qin Xu said helplessly.

"Waiting for news? Whose news?" Erica looked at Qin Xu with some doubts.

"An information consulting company in Billings." Shrugging, Qin Xu looked at the time, "They said they would give me news within an hour, so it should be soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Xu's mobile phone on the table rang suddenly.Looking at the number displayed on it, it was the phone number of the information consulting company he had called from Jennifer just now.

"It's really on time, just hope you don't disappoint me."

After murmuring something to himself, Qin Xu answered the phone decisively.

"Hello, I'm Qin!"
