Chapter 945: Song Ning’s Biological Family
The moment the man finished his sentence, he could sense the cold sensation at his temple disappear.
He sat slumped on the ground as he broke out in cold sweat. All he did was accept a simple a.s.signment from Song Zhi to abduct someone. However, it felt as though he had prodded the hornets’ nest.
Who on earth was this girl?
Chen Ming stood up. He ignored the hooligans and simply tilted his head slightly. He said to his subordinate, “Maim them.”
The moment they heard what he said, the hooligans instantly turned ghastly pale. The man sitting in the back seat with Huo Yao earlier was particularly scared. He suddenly remembered what Huo Yao had told them earlier.
If he hung up the phone, he would be in big trouble.
From the looks of it, those were not empty threats. She had genuinely meant it.

After Chen Ming got into the car, he leaned against the car window casually. A few minutes later when his subordinate got in as well, there was a faint scent of blood in the air.
“I have already interrogated them. Song Zhi from the Song family sent them to kidnap Miss Huo. However, I don’t know why they did it,” said his subordinate as he started the engine.
“Which Song family is it?” Chen Ming narrowed his eyes as he looked out the car window.
“If I am not mistaken, it is Master Jinyan’s in-laws.”
Although Chen Ming had already guessed it himself, the look in his eyes became even more serious.
The person driving the car looked into the rearview mirror. After a few seconds of silence, he asked cautiously. “How are we going to handle it?”
Based on their usual practice, the Song family would be dead meat. Since it was Song Ning’s biological family, even though she had severed ties from them ages ago, family was family.
Chen Ming pursed his lips as he contemplated. After some time, he finally said, “Go and pick up Miss Huo first. We can think about how to take care of them some other time.”
“Okay,” acknowledged his subordinate softly. A few minutes later, he suddenly recalled something and said, “Oh yes. It seems someone had already broken their arms.”
“Huh?” Chen Ming looked straight ahead. He was so focused on Miss Huo that he overlooked the matter. Although the hooligans’ arms were clearly bandaged, he did not think too deeply about it.
“Someone might have already beaten them up before we got there,” speculated his subordinate as he drove the car.
Chen Ming narrowed his eyes as he contemplated. Did someone really get to Miss Huo before they did?

Huo Yao left Song Zhi’s villa before long. The back of her hand was slightly red and she had suffered slight abrasion. She was hungry and exhausted and felt a little annoyed as she glanced at the injury on her hand.
Huo Yao retrieved her phone as she headed out of the estate. She clicked on it, but there was no reaction. She finally recalled that her phone was dead. She put it away since it was useless.
The villa was huge, so it took Huo Yao a ten minutes walk to get to the entrance.
Since she was an unfamiliar face, the security guard asked a few questions before letting her pa.s.s.
Huo Yao’s phone was dead and she did not have any money. Also, there wasn’t a single cab in sight. She suddenly felt everything was going against her today as she raised her head and looked at the dark skies.
The G.o.ds were really out to get her today.
Huo Yao sighed before she veered her eyes. Just as she was about to continue walking, a black car came driving over. She instinctively raised her hands and covered her eyes when the headlights shone on her.
In an instant, the car screeched to a halt and its bright headlights went off.
Huo Yao paused for a couple of seconds before putting down her hands. She narrowed her eyes slightly as she looked at the car that had just pulled up nearby.
