Chapter 65: Chapter 65: Huo Qingyuan Got Kidnapped?
Huo Zihang dared not procrastinate. Without delay, he immediately whipped out his cell phone to call Huo Qingyuan.
The phone rang for a long time…
“No one is answering.”
“Keep calling then.”
Huo Zihang proceeded to make several calls but no one answered. The last time Huo Zihang called, the cellphone was shut off.
“What is Huo Qingyuan getting up to? She suddenly switched off her phone.”
‘Switched off?’
Yan Jinyi took out his own cell phone and said, “Call her using my cellphone.”
‘Did that wretched lass block my number?’
That was the first thing that came to Huo Zihang’s mind. He carefully grabbed Yan Jinyi’s cell phone and dialed the numbers gently, for fear that he would be beaten up again if he damaged her cell phone.
A few minutes passed…
Huo Zihang returned the cell phone to Yan Jinyi awkwardly. “It’s still switched off. Um, Huo Qingyuan may have bumped into her silly friends. That’s just what she’s like. Why don’t we…”
“Call the police.”
Yan Jinyi suddenly said.
Huo Zihang blinked. “What?”
“I said, call the police.”
“No, are you thinking that Huo Qingyuan has gotten into a mishap? She’s quite a fighter and she’s the daughter of the Huo Family. She…” At this point, Huo Zihang widened his eyes and said, “Could she have attempted suicide?”
‘Has she decided to kill herself because she embarrassed herself in front of Yan Jinyi?’
‘My dear sister, I’ve suffered the same thing, but I didn’t think of suicide!’
Yan Jinyi frowned and barked, “I repeat for the very last time, call the police immediately, now!”
Not daring to ask any further, Huo Zihang immediately called the police to report that Huo Qingyuan had gone missing.
Upon hearing that she was the daughter of the Huo Family, the police immediately took action.
“Yan… Second Sister-in-law, are you thinking of getting the police to bring Huo Qingyuan over? In fact, it is not necessary, I can do that.”
Yan Jinyi straightened out the hem of her skirt and stood up. “Help me apply for a leave of absence with the filming crew. Does Huo Qingyuan have any traceable items with her?”
“Her cellphone!”
‘How simple.’
Huo Zihang was about to check the location of Huo Qingyuan’s cellphone address when Yan Jinyi suddenly kicked him in his leg.
“Ouch! Why did you kick me?”
Expecting better from him, Yan Jinyi chastised, “I told you to call the police. What are you tracking her phone for? I’m asking you if there’s any other device of hers that can be tracked?”
‘Damn it!’
‘Yan Jinyi, I’m going to fight you…’
‘Forget it.’
“I don’t know.”
Huo Zihang humphed coldly.
Yan Jinyi raised her eyebrows and looked askance at him with a squint. “Repeat yourself.”
Huo Zihang shivered and said, “Oh yes, there is. She once got lost when she was a child, so there’s an additional tracking device in all of her watches.”
“Check.”
Yan Jinyi had a gloomy gaze. ‘I’ve yet to deal with the Zhao Family, but they’ve sent themselves here, huh?’
It was hard not to associate the fact that Huo Qingyuan suddenly became uncontactable with Zhao Xinyue because of what happened yesterday.
In the van, a ferocious-looking man was holding onto the steering wheel steadily and a tall and burly man was seated in the passenger seat beside him. He was smiling sheepishly with his cell phone in hand. “Miss Zhao, we’ve already kidnapped her. The money…”
After Zhao Xinyue said something, the man wiped the saliva at the corner of his mouth and said, “No problem. We haven’t tried tender-skinned college girls like her…”
Huo Qingyuan felt extremely dizzy and she could clearly feel that her hands and feet had been tied up. The ride was jerky and the unpleasant stench of gasoline permeated her nostrils.
She seemed… to have been kidnapped.
Realizing this, she suddenly snapped out of her daze. She could hear the stranger’s voice in her ear.
