The staff were startled, initially thinking Bao Ye was dissatisfied with their service. They nervously asked, "Sir, is sothing wrong?"
But Bao Ye didn’t even glance at them, turning around and striding directly towards the bathroom.
Seeing him suddenly leave, the staff were bewildered.
"Sir, your card!"
It was still in their hands.
However, the man didn’t look back.
With hurried steps, as if sothing had happened.
The staff held onto Bao Ye’s black card, unsure of what to do for the mont, so they could only wait for his return.
Outside the bathroom, from afar, he saw the bodyguard still standing there. Bao Ye anxiously approached, "Where is she? She hasn’t co out yet?"
Bodyguard: "No, Mr. Bao."
"Miss Jiang has been inside for more than ten minutes."
Before finishing the sentence, the man in front dashed to go in.
The bodyguard hurriedly blocked him in fright: "Mr. Bao, this is the won’s bathroom."
Bao Ye gave him a cold glance: "I know."
At this mont, a woman ca out.
She was a South African.
Bao Ye stepped forward, politely asking her in fluent South African language, "Hello, is there anyone else inside?"
The woman shook her head: "There shouldn’t be."
Bao Ye’s heart sank, thanked her, and went straight in.
The bathroom had four doors, all empty, nowhere was Jiang Ruan in sight.
"Where is she?"
"Didn’t I tell you to protect her well?"
Bao Ye’s fists tightened, his face instantly darkened.
The bodyguard followed in, looking terrified: "How could this be?"
He was clearly keeping a close watch.
How could she disappear right under his nose?
"Sorry, Mr. Bao." The bodyguard lowered his head: "I failed in my duty."
What use is there in saying this now?
Suddenly, Bao Ye thought of sothing and turned to leave.
Back at the auction, the proceedings were still ongoing, but as he glanced up, he noticed Tokugawa Rui was also missing.
What was unclear about this?
Damn it.
Bao Ye’s eyes filled with murderous intent: "Follow ."
The man turned and walked towards the exit, the bodyguard hurriedly catching up.
His task was to protect Miss Jiang.
But now Miss Jiang was missing.
The bodyguard couldn’t shirk responsibility.
He hoped Miss Jiang was safe, otherwise not only would his leading position be over, Mr. Bao wouldn’t spare him either.
-
In the room, Jiang Ruan was in a daze, her head feeling as heavy as if it weighed a thousand pounds, the pain likened to countless ants gnawing at her flesh, her bones.
Her delicate eyebrows furrowed, trying to clear her mind a bit, becoming aware that she had opened her eyes.
But all she saw was pitch darkness.
Jiang Ruan’s dry red lips slightly moved, she lost her sense of direction in confusion, intuition told her sothing was very wrong now.
This wasn’t a dream.
She was clearly in the bathroom.
After coming out, soone suddenly covered her mouth.
Then it turned into the current situation.
Soone deliberately set her up.
"Bao Ye..."
Her voice was hoarse, calling his na desperately in the darkness.
Little did she know, not far from her.
Tokugawa Rui and the African man were staring at her intently.
At a close distance, only then did Tokugawa Rui truly see Jiang Ruan’s appearance, his pair of mixed-blood blue eyes lit up.
He chuckled gloomily: "What a beauty indeed."
The African man praised: "Didn’t I say, Second Young Master, this woman is more beautiful than most won we’ve bought before, the fun of playing with her, heh heh..."
Tokugawa Rui, however, sneered repeatedly: "It was she and that man who caused a loss of more than eighty million. I want her to pay the price."
