"Just sit tight and wait for the money!"
Mr. Qian let out a few cold laughs and said, "Then I’ll trust you one more ti!"
After speaking, Mr. Qian hung up the phone.
The anxiety Shen Ruyun felt was like ants on a hot pan. She walked over to the window and saw the woman lying on the hospital bed, sleeping peacefully.
Her jet-black hair, smooth as satin, spread across the pillow, making her porcelain-white little face look even more beautiful.
A feeling of irritation festered inside Shen Ruyun.
Why was it that Qin Yan’s daughter was missing, and she was so frantic as though possessed, yet Qin Yan could lie so peacefully in a hospital bed?
Shen Ruyun gritted her teeth and suddenly turned around.
No, this wouldn’t do!
She couldn’t just sit around waiting to die; she couldn’t count on Lu Yi. She had to save herself!
Shen Ruyun walked slowly, her gaze sowhat hollow, still without a plan, when a man approached from the opposite direction.
He was refined and handso, wearing gold-rimd glasses, with a genteel deanor—surprisingly, he bore so resemblance to the brutish, scholarly-dressed kind, like Lu Yi!
Shen Ruyun felt this man looked sowhat familiar. After hesitating for a mont, she suddenly rembered where she had seen him—it seed like he was Bo Yunshen’s secretary, Xu Lin?
What was he doing here instead of going up the mountain to find Yunshen or waiting at the police station for news about his brother?
Thinking this, Shen Ruyun reached out to stop the man, asking in a low voice, "Secretary Xu, why aren’t you at the police station waiting for news about the fourth brother, running over here instead?"
Xu Lin was preoccupied with Yunshen’s safety, but suddenly soone stopped him. He looked up towards Shen Ruyun.
"Third Mrs. Bo."
Xu Lin knew quite a bit about the Bo Family’s interpersonal relations. Moreover, Shen Ruyun also held shares in Bo Group.
Upon greeting her, Shen Ruyun licked her lips and looked at him with a hint of sarcasm, "What’s the matter? The fourth brother isn’t dead yet, and Secretary Xu is already thinking about cozying up to Qin Yan?"
Xu Lin was taken aback.
He had thought that in the Bo Family, only Mr. Bo had a bad impression of Mr. Qin!
He hadn’t expected Third Mrs. Bo to be any different!
With that thought, Xu Lin explained, "Third Mrs. Bo, the old master called the police station, and the search and rescue team that was on the mountain has been called off."
"The old master also said that no one is allowed to go up to save the president."
Shen Ruyun furrowed her brow.
She didn’t believe that Xu Lin would deceive her with such a matter. What surprised her was that Yunshen was the old man’s last son!
Without a second thought, she knew Bo Yuanshan must have given such an order, and it was definitely related to Qin Yan!
So heartless!
Anxiety was written all over Xu Lin’s face. Bo Yuanshan was old and simply incapable of intensely managing the company. If sothing else happened to Yunshen, what would beco of the company?
"Old master’s attitude is firm, and I believe only Director Qin can persuade him now!"
"Our president, for all his faults, is still the old man’s son at the end of the day!"
Hearing this, Shen Ruyun furrowed her brow again. She reached out to twirl a strand of her hair, asking thoughtfully, "Do you know why dad called off the search and rescue?"
Xu Lin shook his head.
If only he knew, he wouldn’t be so anxious here!
Going up the mountain was just to pay respects to the third son; he couldn’t begin to guess what Mr. Bo could have done that would anger the old master so much he would make this heartless decision!
His mind was wholly focused on rescuing Bo Yunshen; he hadn’t noticed the glimr in Shen Ruyun’s eyes.
Her lips pressed tightly together, a sche taking shape in her mind.
"Third Mrs. Bo, I’m in a hurry to see Director Qin..."
"Wait a minute!"
Shen Ruyun stopped Xu Lin once more, her gaze profound, "Secretary Xu, let handle informing the fourth sister. You go look for other solutions. Right now, the key thing is to rescue my fourth brother!"
"This..."
"What ’this’? The fourth sister has just woken up. You should know, she’s just co down from the mountain and is frightened. If you go and tell her, she’ll definitely be even more upset! I am a woman, and I understand won better! I won’t scare the fourth sister!"
Xu Lin thought about it and felt she was right.
Although Director Qin was formidable at the company, she was still a woman after all. With such a big incident happening, she must be frightened!
Besides, they were all family. Xu Lin believed that Shen Ruyun had no reason to lie.
"Then I’ll leave it to Third Mrs. Bo!" Xu Lin agreed, "I’ll make a call first to communicate with the rescue team on the mountain!"
Shen Ruyun nodded.
Xu Lin arrived quickly and left just as quickly.
Shen Ruyun licked her lips as she watched Xu Lin leave, the corners of her mouth curling into a sinister smile.
She turned to glance at Qin Yan’s hospital room. Even through the window, she could see Qin Yan’s exposed black hair.
She scoffed coldly, straightened her petite suit dress, and sashayed towards Mrs. Bo’s hospital room.
Only Mrs. Bo and Jiang Xue were in the hospital room.
With the ever-kind-hearted Fang Weiwei and Bo Yuanshan not there, Shen Ruyun didn’t rush into the room. She stood at the door, glancing left and right to make sure Bo Yuanshan wouldn’t suddenly appear, then hurried into the room!
"Mom, mom, sothing terrible has happened!"
Mrs. Bo was worried sick about Bo Yunshen’s safety, and hearing the commotion, she glared furiously at Shen Ruyun, saying, "What’s with all the rush? Can’t you show so decorum?"
Scolded, Shen Ruyun wasn’t in a rush. Twisting her head slightly and with a touch of grievance, she spoke, "Mom, you might not know yet. Dad called the police station and got the rescue team on the mountain withdrawn!"
As soon as she said this, Mrs. Bo’s pupils dilated sharply, and she sat up abruptly from the bed, grasping Shen Ruyun’s hand.
Mrs. Bo’s grip was strong, her nails digging into the flesh of Shen Ruyun’s hand: "Why was it withdrawn? Did they find Yunshen?"
Shen Ruyun winced with pain, but she didn’t dare to cry out. After hesitating for a mont, she licked her lips and spoke cautiously, "No! It’s because Qin Yan just woke up! I don’t know what she said to dad, but he got angry and..."
"And what?"
"Third sister, spit it out!"
Jiang Xue sitting by the side, suddenly widened her eyes.
Shen Ruyun’s eyes darkened as she said, "Dad ordered the rescue team to withdraw from the mountain and declared that no one is allowed to go up and save my fourth brother!"
"Mom, dad was very adamant. No amount of pleading worked!"
Hearing this, Mrs. Bo’s breathing tightened abruptly, her face turning as white as paper. Her heart pounded furiously in her chest; had she not been holding on, she would have fainted on the spot.
Taking advantage of Mrs. Bo’s anger, Shen Ruyun gave Jiang Xue a aningful look.
Understanding the cue, Jiang Xue took over the conversation, "What? That’s happening?"
"I even checked the news earlier. Mom, several areas on the mountain have collapsed. Withdrawing the rescue team at this ti, isn’t Qin Yan aiming for fourth brother’s life?"
"Mom, did Qin Yan find out about the bastard being kidnapped? Is she taking malicious revenge on the fourth brother?"
Mrs. Bo gripped Shen Ruyun’s hand even tighter, her other hand clenching the bedsheets ferociously. Her breathing seed strangled, the pain unbearable!
