Rong Qi followed those people onto a minivan, discreetly observing them while enduring the severe pain in her lower abdomen.
Those people came prepared, ruling out the possibility of university-related revenge. Only two scenarios explained their ability to locate Rong Qi without her noticing. Either they were incredibly familiar with her, or they had carefully planned this and were just waiting for the right moment.
Leaning back in her seat, Rong Qi recuperated, appearing as calm as a sleeping little girl.
The people inside the van couldn’t help but feel puzzled and wondered if Rong Qi really was the same person described by that buyer as highly threatening and cunning. To them, Rong Qi looked harmless, like an ordinary student.
They burst into laughter and thought they must have been too cautious, sending eight people here to deal with such a small girl. At most, two people would suffice to handle Rong Qi. They also thought Rong Qi closed her in fear but pretended to be calm.
However, anyone experienced enough could tell that Rong Qi wasn’t pretending to be calm; she was recuperating. She was conserving her strength as much as possible to prepare for the upcoming confrontation. She wasn’t afraid; she was gathering her power.
Meanwhile, Xu Yi stood in place with a perplexed expression having just parked the car inside the campus. He wondered, “Where is Madame?”
Xu Yi tried calling Rong Qi’s phone, but there was no answer. He a.s.sumed Rong Qi had temporarily left for something urgent. Standing there, he paced back and forth, suddenly catching sight of a footprint on the gra.s.sy field nearby.
Xu Yi’s expression turned serious instantly. He quickly dialed Ye Nanshen’s number and reported, “Master Shen, something’s wrong. Madame is in trouble…”
The footprint on the gra.s.s was quite deep, and its length suggested an adult’s foot size. The marks on the sole resembled a pair of boots.
Xu Yi’s combat experience was quite extensive; he could deduce useful information from just a single footprint. There was no sign of a struggle at the scene, indicating that Rong Qi had been coerced to leave.
‘Because if she had left voluntarily, why didn’t she answer her phone?’ Xu Yi pondered.
Xu Yi roughly estimated the direction and drove out in pursuit.
The car drove unsteadily all the way until it reached a outskirts warehouse.
“Get out!”
Those people gave Rong Qi a sinister smile.
Rong Qi followed them out of the car and entered the s.p.a.cious warehouse behind them while enduring the intense pain in her abdomen.
The warehouse was huge, filled with sandbags. Two rows of st.u.r.dy men stood inside, with a chair in the middle where Lu Qi was tied up. Beside her sat a bald man on an armchair, and a few henchmen stood behind him.
“Heh heh, Miss Rong, you’ve got guts.” The man took a sip of tea. “You really dared to come.”
Rong Qi’s gaze turned cold as she replied calmly, “I’m here, release her.”
The man laughed a few times. “Haha, release her? Of course, but the buyer behind us didn’t make it so easy for me to let you go. This little girl can live, but…”
The henchmen behind gaze at Rong Qi and said, “Boss, this girl is hot. The other party offered the price for just one person. 1 was thinking, what if we…”
The leader nodded and said, “Simple. We can trade. Two million for her, and you can stay. If you don’t have the money… You can also serve as a tool for our brothers to vent their frustrations! Hahaha.”
The leader’s words were extremely insulting, causing everyone in the warehouse to burst into laughter..
