Yuran was bound at the arms and blindfolded, yet incredibly calm. After no questions ca forth, she leaned back in the back seat and closed her eyes to rest.
The person driving in front worried she might have so tricks up her sleeve and watched her very closely.
However, after a long while, Yuran made no movents. The man in the passenger seat said, "Why are you watching her so closely? She has no chance to escape. Her eyes are covered, and her arms are tied. It would be surprising if she could break free."
"True."
...
On Lu Xizhou’s side, there were systems specifically to track the location of devices developed by his family’s company, and the tracker on Yuran was even more advanced. When Bo Yan had co to Arica before, he had feared this day might co, worrying that Yuran might be frad.
Lu Xizhou used to say he was being overly cautious, but now, he was completely free of that thought.
He looked at the location on the screen, boarded a helicopter, and made a call to Bo Yan, "I’m headed towards where Little Ranran was kidnapped. Do you need to pick you up?"
"No need, just keep an eye on her. I’ll drive there myself."
The news of Yuran’s disappearance couldn’t be hidden. Almost as soon as Bo Yan learned of it, Huo Qi also found out. He was overwheld with shock and anger, as such an incident happening within his film crew was extrely embarrassing for him.
He even felt that consoling Bo Yan was an agony.
His complexion was no better than Bo Yan’s. As Bo Yan was leaving, he told him one thing. No matter who was behind this incident, he wouldn’t let them off easily—he would investigate it thoroughly.
Bo Yan told him not to bla himself. This matter wasn’t really connected to Huo Qi; in fact, he was the principal culprit.
Deep down, he faintly knew who was behind this. It wasn’t hard to guess, but he hadn’t expected that after a negotiation with Nick, her audacity could still be so great.
It was utterly baffling.
Bo Yan’s car was well-modified and could accelerate very quickly when at full speed.
The mont he stepped on the accelerator, he also made a call to Nick. As soon as Nick answered, he spoke tersely, "The assurances you gave before, and my promises, from this second, are all void."
Nick, who was in a eting with the executives, was suddenly silenced in disbelief and then anxiously said, "Eldest Young Master, about our earlier discussion..."
Bo Yan interrupted him, his voice exceptionally cold and hard, "If my wife is slightly endangered, not to ntion cooperating with you, your family’s business can prepare to declare bankruptcy."
Before the person on the other end could respond, Bo Yan decisively hung up the phone, then floored the accelerator of his car.
...
After being hung up on by Bo Yan, Nick suddenly thought of sothing, dismissed the eting, and after returning to his office, he made a call ho.
"Butler, is the young lady at ho?"
The butler, not knowing what had happened, said, "Young Master, the little young lady’s room door hasn’t been opened at all. Since you ca back yesterday, the door has remained closed."
Nick felt a sinking feeling in his heart, his voice almost unable to contain his anger, "Now, go open the little young lady’s room imdiately and check if she is still there. If she’s not, call right away."
"Young Master, has sothing happened?"
"Just go and check."
Nick yelled out.
The butler, daring not to ask further, imdiately found the spare key and hurried upstairs, praying inwardly that the little young mistress was there. If not, he would definitely not be able to explain it to the Young Master.
The spare key unlocked Catherine’s room door, regrettably, Catherine was nowhere to be seen in the room; the window was wide open, indicating she had left a long while ago. The butler hurriedly descended the stairs and made a call to Nick.
As soon as Nick answered, he heard the butler’s extrely anxious voice, "Young Master, it’s bad, the young lady isn’t here, I, I didn’t know when she left the house, I..."
"I understand."
Nick said nothing more and directly hung up the butler’s call, his furrowed brows forming a frown, showing his imnse anger at the mont.
Seeing the call had been disconnected, the butler felt incredibly uneasy and didn’t dare to cause further trouble. He quickly gathered the household servants and questioned them one by one to find out who saw the young lady leave, who knew her whereabouts, and so on. Anyone found withholding information would be imdiately fired by the Eldest Young Master upon his return.
A young maid, timid, confessed imdiately upon being questioned by the butler. In a pained voice, she told the butler that in the early hours of the morning, the little young mistress said she had a stomachache and then asked her to find a doctor. Not daring to wait, she had initially intended to inform the butler, but the little young mistress threatened her, saying if she went to the butler, then once she returned, she would have the Eldest Young Master fire her.
