Chapter 1505: Chapter 1498: The Final Choice (4)
Moreover, we must act quickly and swiftly. Now that Lu Weixi has been kidnapped for over 50 hours, without a rescue, even if the kidnappers an her no harm, not beating or torturing her, going without food and water for over three days can be lethal. She is also pregnant, which makes her physically weaker, so we must hasten the rescue operation!
However, since the Northwest Reservoir is Yan City’s largest reservoir, that ans the area is vast, with the water surface equivalent to a dium-sized lake. Surrounding the reservoir are mountains, dense forests, and even cliffs, making the terrain extrely complex. Once, tourists went hiking here and it took a large-scale search team two full days to find them. Lu Weixi is kidnapped, we can’t search on a large scale lest the kidnappers beco desperate. And although we suspect she may be near the reservoir, what if it was just nonsense spoken by Lu Weixi due to a head injury? If we search in the wrong direction, she’s definitely a goner. Thus, we’ve split into two teams—one heading to West Mountain, while the other remains stationed in Hanhai.
Another thing, when the kidnapper called just now, the call didn’t last more than 20 seconds before being cut off. We can’t trace the incoming call information here. Otherwise, where the signal appears could have been corroborative evidence, making it easier for us to find Lu Weixi’s location.
As for Qin Zhiyou, the mont he learned that Lu Weixi might be near the reservoir, he imdiately wanted to go too, but was held back by others. After all, if the kidnappers send another ssage, at Hanhai they have the equipnt to continue investigating the source of the mobile signal.
Besides, he really can’t leave the company matters unattended. Although Hanhai’s stock price closed only five points down, who knows if there will be no good news from the bank on grandfather’s side today, will it continue to decline? Zhao Zihao’s words were clear—he was telling him that he had more moves to play and was willing to see it through to the end. If Qin Zhiyou departs Hanhai to find his wife, abandoning everything, Zhao Zihao would definitely stab him in the back in a heartbeat!
The company is a gamble, and so is Lu Weixi’s life. Qin Zhiyou stands up anxiously, gazing at the sky outside.
The sky today seems a bit overcast. The sun hides behind the clouds, yet there’s no hint of rain, just stuffiness. The high temperature outside, coupled with the humidity and not a breeze in sight, makes one irritable, and the mood plumts.
Qin Zhiyou rembers his father saying to always anticipate the worst, but once the worst cos, you have to think positive. The more critical the mont, the more he needs to keep his cool. A small error in judgnt could lead to Hanhai’s collapse, to Lu Weixi’s death.
No matter what, he cannot fall. He must safeguard Hanhai and ensure Lu Weixi returns!

Just at the most difficult ti.
Another call ca, again from a stranger.
But it wasn’t for Qin Zhiyou—it was for Secretary Wang.
Secretary Wang was shocked when he received the call. He quietly ca over, tugged Qin Zhiyou’s arm, and handed him the phone.
As soon as Qin Zhiyou took the call, the kidnapper’s voice ca through: “President Qin, use this phone to contact from now on. I don’t want the police to know about this. I’m only after money. As long as you co out alone with the money and hand it over, I will definitely spare your wife’s life!”
Qin Zhiyou was overjoyed and nodded imdiately: “How much money do you want, and how should I give it to you? I will definitely deceive the police and co out alone!”
