Chapter 850: Chapter 853: Using the Old Trick Again
“What ti did President Guo leave?”
Lina asked urgently.
“Around three o’clock.”
Ring ring ring…
Right as they were talking, Xia Liu’s phone rang.
Glancing at the screen, it was Guo Man calling.
“Shh…”
After signaling Lina and Manager Zhao to stay quiet, Xia Liu slowly pressed the answer button: “Hello.”
“Xia Liu, right? Guo Man is with . If you want her safe, co to the Southern Wharf!”
A cold voice, mixed with a hint of mocking laughter, ca through the phone.
Xia Liu’s eyes narrowed, his jaw clenched tightly.
Beep beep beep…
The call abruptly ended before he could respond.
“Mr. Xia, did you discover sothing?”
“It’s Liang Chao’s doing.”
Xia Liu replied darkly.
“Liang Chao!”
At the ntion of the familiar na, Lina’s eyes widened in shock.
If Liang Chao had kidnapped Guo Man, the consequences could be disastrous.
“Then let’s hurry to find her!”
“You drive to the Southern Wharf.”
“What about you?”
Lina was sowhat at a loss; the Southern Wharf was hundreds of kiloters from the Harbor District, and it would take at least three hours to get there.
“I’m going elsewhere.”
Xia Liu responded decisively.
“Alright, I’ll go imdiately. I’ll call you when I arrive.”
Lina, unsure of what else to say, decided to follow Xia Liu’s instructions.
“Manager Zhao, does your company have a car? Lend
one.”
“Er…”
Seeing Manager Zhao hesitate, Xia Liu’s murderous aura surged, making Manager Zhao’s legs weaken instantly.
“Yes, yes, here’s my car. Please take it.”
Manager Zhao imdiately handed over his car keys to Xia Liu.
“Pick it up tomorrow at Guo’s Pharmaceutical parking lot.”
Offering no further explanation, Xia Liu noted the car’s location, unlocked it, and drove off imdiately.
While driving, Xia Liu called Glasses, who was far away in Hejing.
“Brother Xia Liu!”
“Glasses, the situation is urgent. I need you to track a phone number from a call I received three minutes ago. Can you do it?”
“I need ten minutes to locate it.”
Understanding the gravity of the situation, Glasses answered with confidence.
“Alright, note down the number and send
the location once you’re done.”
After giving Glasses the phone number, Xia Liu pressed down hard on the gas pedal, heading toward the city center.
Forget the Southern Wharf.
The distance to the Southern Wharf was several hours by car.
Unless flying there, Liang Chao couldn’t reach that far.
He might have set up an ambush there, but it was certainly not where he or Guo Man were located.
The only places he might show up were downtown or his ho.
And among everyone Xia Liu knew, only Glasses had the skills to track him.
Five minutes later, his phone rang again—it was Glasses calling.
“Did you find it?”
Skipping pleasantries, Xia Liu went straight to the point.
“The number showed up a few minutes ago at Harbor City’s downtown area, specifically at 66 Dongxing Street, a six-star hotel.”
“Got it. Keep this matter between us for now.”
“Understood.”
After confirming, Xia Liu imdiately hung up.
“66 Dongxing Street, luxury hotel. Liang Chao, oh Liang Chao! This ti, I will make sure you die!”
Navigating to the exact location, Xia Liu drove furiously, pushing his speed to the city’s limit!
Dongxing Street, one of the busiest streets in the city center, was bustling with people on both sides of the road.
Fortunately, the crowd was orderly, and traffic was smooth.
When Xia Liu arrived at the destination, a magnificent hotel stood before him.
After parking the car, Xia Liu headed straight into the hotel.
He chose the stairs over the elevator.
Divine Sense activated.
This thod had helped him locate Guo Man before; it would work again.
The hotel’s layout was vast.
Xia Liu had to cover significant ground and use extra ti to scan each floor.
He was nearly halfway through the building.
Thankfully, Divine Sense radiated outward from him, covering a radius of 200 ters above and below.
Upon reaching the fifteenth floor, he finally found them!
This ti, not only did he spot Liang Chao, but he also saw Liang Yu!
Guo Man, Xilu, and Xima were lying unconscious on spotless white sheets.
Fortunately, none of them showed signs of injury. Otherwise, all efforts would have been in vain.
Xia Liu kept his Divine Sense focused while maintaining a normal walking pace.
In a hotel filled with surveillance caras, he couldn’t afford to leave any evidence.
Later investigations would surely scrutinize the footage.
Inside the room occupied by Liang Yu and Liang Chao…
Liang Chao was fiddling with a cara.
The lens aid directly at the cozy bed.
“Brother, I won’t bother recording this. The two Oceanic Horses on the sofa will do.”
Liang Yu smiled subtly, his gaze fixated on the voluptuous forms of Xilu and Xima.
“Heh heh, thanks again, Brother Yu. I’m not picky; you can have Guo Man first.”
Liang Chao smirked sinisterly. Without Liang Yu’s help, he couldn’t have enjoyed this mont of reckless vengeance.
The icy sensation on his palm made his blood nearly freeze.
“No, over the years, I’ve seen how much you’ve sacrificed for this woman.”
Liang Yu dared not touch Guo Man. If Zhuge Yingtian found out, it would spell doom for him.
Liang Chao was different—his hospital checkup had revealed possible organ infection, signaling his life might be nearing its end.
This made him even more unhinged.
The only reason Liang Yu agreed to help Liang Chao was because of Liang Chao’s father.
His father had amassed significant wealth over the years.
If Liang Chao said a few nice words before dying, his family’s vast fortune would belong to Liang Yu.
With that money, Liang Yu could do whatever he wanted, perhaps even attend auctions to purchase rare cultivation resources and bolster his strength.
Thinking of this, Liang Yu couldn’t help but feel elated.
And this ti, he could also take the chance to savor the Oceanic Horses—a rare delight not everyone could experience.
“Heh heh, then I won’t hold back, Brother!”
Liang Chao squinted his eyes with a grin; he definitely didn’t want to hand Guo Man’s “first ti” to Liang Yu.
It was rely polite talk.
Knock knock knock…
Just as Liang Chao was about to move forward, knocking sounds ca from outside.
“Help
move those two Oceanic Horses to the sofa; I’ll get the door.”
Pointing at Xilu and Xima, Liang Yu walked gleefully toward the door.
As the door slowly opened, Liang Yu’s pupils instantly constricted: “It’s you!”
Bam!
Seizing Liang Yu’s mont of shock, Xia Liu kicked him hard in the stomach, sending the door flying wide open.
Before stepping inside, Xia Liu glanced at the caras on both ends of the corridor, which now emitted faint electric buzzing sounds, ensuring his entry was secure.
“Liang Chao, why did you bring him here?”
Liang Yu felt annoyed. Xia Liu’s kick wasn’t exactly painful, but seeing him here raised an imdiate problem—killing him and figuring out the aftermath. How to deal with that?
This was a real dilemma…
