“Stop your ridiculous wishful thinking, When I came back, I saw the police were chasing in the opposite direction of the kidnappers. They were so stupid,” Ye Xueli said without much thought.
After that, Ye Xueli immediately left. Ye Jianguo stood there in a daze for a long time before running in another direction. He was fast, but he did not run toward the family area.
The entire Luo City was closed off. One could see policemen everywhere in the city. As day turned into night, the security in the city became more strict.
The afterglow of the setting sun slowly slid from the outer wall of the most luxurious hotel in Luo City until it disappeared. In the hotel’s high-cla.s.s suite, a person stood on the balcony with a wine gla.s.s in his hand and looked down. The gla.s.s was empty. It was clear that he had been standing there for a
long time and was in a good mood.
The wind blew gently against the curtains. At that time, a man walked out with his waist slightly bent. He had a respectful look on his face. “Boss, we still can’t get through to Lu Xingzhi’s phone. We’ve been calling him for several hours. Do we still need to continue?”
The man paused. He asked in a hoa.r.s.e voice, “Have all the police officers left the hotel?”
“They checked every room and corner of the hotel and then left.”
“We spent so much effort capturing his wife. What’s the use if we can’t contact him? Our goal is to find Young Master Lu.” The man’s words carried some anger. “Isn’t he very protective of his wife? The entire city knows that his wife has been kidnapped, but he still has no reaction?”
“Boss, Young Master Lu is a soldier. Maybe he’s out on a mission and is not in the city, so we can’t contact him?” The man stammered for a few seconds before he whispered, “Mr. Qian’s people have already contacted the Fifth Young Master Chen. According to Mr. Qian’s men, he probably wants to work
alone and not cooperate with us. He’s probably afraid that things will change if we delay for too long. There’s news that Fifth Young Master Chen has already rushed to the city. If that’s the case, we will also be exposed.”
“That Mr. Qian has always underestimated us! He did so more than ten years ago, and he still does that now. Is he better than me? The Liang family still beat him up until he had no way to cooperate with us again!”
The man knew it was useless to be angry, so he quickly changed his tone. “It’s good that Fifth Young Master Chen is here. At the same time, inform the Liang family. Didn’t Young Master Liang, Fifth Young Master Chen, and the other young masters inJindo City claim to be on good terms with each other?
Since we can’t find Young Master Lu, then we can let the Liang family represent him! Even though Mr. Qian is a coward, he is right about one thing. The longer the night, the more dangerous it will be. Right now, the entire Luo City is on high alert. If this drags on, they might find us.
“Furthermore, Young Master Lu may not be as concerned about that wife as we thought.
“However, the Liang family is different. Old Madam Liang has been to their hometown before. Young Master Lu’s wife even helped Old Madam Liang with her health. She is the Liang family’s benefactor. Therefore, the Liang family will want to rescue her.”
