Jiang Yao looked confused. “I don’t know.”
She shook her head. “I made up the story about my cousin opening a jade processing factory in YN. I said his business is not doing well. However, I didn’t know that it was Ping City’s Zhu family’s factory.
Lu Xingzhi grunted in grat.i.tude and tumed his head to look at Chu Sheng. He waited until Chu Sheng signaled that she was okay before he turned around to hold Jiang Yao’s hand.
“It’s understandable for the Zhu family to kidnap me, but why would they kidnap Chu Sheng?” Jiang Yao tured toward Lu Xingzhi. “The Zhu family’s businesses in YN have all fallen into others’ hands. It’s normal for them to guess that we were the ones who did it, so they have a motive to attack me. But
what did Chu Sheng have to do with that?”
“We can find out their motive in taking you two.”
Lu Xingzhi held Jiang Yao’s hand. Then, he said, “Let’s take you two out of here.”
Jiang Yao nodded. Just as she was about to turn around and instruct Chu Sheng to follow them, she noticed something else.
“Someone is coming this way—four people! It looks like they are trained men from the way they walk.” Jiang Yao approached Lu Xingzhi and whispered, “There are other people in the factory. The three of us can’t stroll out of here like this.”
No matter how powerful Lu Xingzhi was, he could not protect the two of them by himself. If Chu Sheng were in her usual state, he would be able to keep them safe for a while. However, Chu Sheng had taken sleeping pills for many days in a row, and she was quite frail. She could not even run, let alone
fight with others.
“Let’s wait and see.” Jiang Yao pushed Lu Xingzhi under the bed. “Chu Sheng and I want to see what the Zhu family will do to us. Now that you and Chen Xuyao are here, Chu Sheng and I should not be in any danger.”
Lu Xingzhi’s presence rea.s.sured Jiang Yao. With him around, Jiang Yao was even more likely to find out what the Zhu family wanted with her.
Lu Xingzhi had planned to fight his way out, but Jiang Yao pushed him under the bed. Before he could say anything else, someone opened the door and walked into the room.
Jiang Yao and Chu Sheng reacted. They quickly lay on the bed and pretended to be in a deep sleep.
Two men entered the room, and the other two stood guard at the door. They were very vigilant.
The men who entered the room looked at the two sleeping ladies on the bed and smiled wretchedly. “The two women are gorgeous.”
“I’s a pity that Boss explicitly forbade us from touching them,” the other man said regretfully. “Look at how well they are sleeping after consuming the sleeping pills. I’ve never met such beautiful women in my life.”
Lu Xingzhi, who was lying under the bed, was so angry that he almost flipped the bed. He could only see men’s shoes and not their faces, so he memorized the style of their shoes.
Both of them had evil intentions but no guts. They talked about it, but they did not dare to do anything. The two men stood beside the bed and stared at the two unconscious women. After a few more obscene words, they bent down and carried the two women.
“Let’s go. Don’t waste any more time. Boss has already called Fifth Young Master Chen and asked him to rush here,” the man on the other side of the bed said when he noticed his companion just stood there. He threw a pillow at the other man..
