Chapter 852: For My Qi’er
“Don’t say such discouraging words. Doctor Song is already being controlled by you. We’ll wait for you to come back.”
It all depended on whether Jin Bo wanted Song Qiaozhi or Feng Shanshan.
“Thank you.” There was nothing else to be said but these two words.
There was no need to be so coy between men. They were straightforward with each other.
Meanwhile, Sheng Xiao asked Xu Che to secretly check the surveillance cameras near Song Qiaozhi’s house. How did she get out? Where was she hiding now? Was it really that difficult to find out?
The jewelry that was supposed to be on Feng Shanshan’s body had appeared near Cheng Bin’s house. However, the person in Cheng Bin’s hands was not Feng Shanshan. What did this mean? Everything on Feng Shanshan’s body could have been sent to Cheng Bin in order to make it look real.
“I’ll call the police half an hour after you enter. Whatever you want to do, do it within that time.”
Why weren’t they calling the police right from the start? What if their judgment was wrong?
Regardless of whether the person inside was Feng Shanshan or another pregnant woman, their lives were equally important. Hence, Sheng Xiao gave him a time limit to settle his personal grievances.
Tang Yan put down his phone and sat beside the rubbish heap the whole time. This was because he could observe the situation of the abandoned glass factory from a close distance. He would also be the first to know if Cheng Bin had brought someone over.
He only hoped that the heavens would take care of him and not leave him alone anymore. Or, he could die alone and not hurt his wife and child.
..
At 8:30 pm, Sheng Xiao still had not returned home.
Having not seen him when she woke up from her nap felt a little strange to Mu Qiqi, so she called Sheng Xiao. “Why aren’t you home tonight?”
Sheng Xiao was in the car at that moment. When he heard her voice, he immediately let go of his sternness and said to her, “Secretary He asked me to go back for a bit. Mom said that you were still sleeping, so I didn’t call you.”
“Is there an urgent matter?”
“Probably,” Sheng Xiao said flatly. He tried to sound as calm as possible.
“Alright then. Come back soon. When you’re back, bring me to see Feng Shanshan. I haven’t been able to contact her all day. I don’t know what’s going on.”
“Okay.” Sheng Xiao only said one word.
“Then you go ahead.” After that, Mu Qiqi hung up. For some reason, everyone was acting strange tonight.
However, no matter how strange it was, she was pregnant now and could not act recklessly.
Even if it was only a distance of about ten minutes, she could guarantee that she would not leave the house if she said she would not.
..
It was 10 p.m.
The Jianchuan branch office was still holding an emergency meeting because Sheng Xiao had brought news about Tang Yan. He mentioned that the two of them had agreed to meet at midnight.
The bureau chief was in a tight spot. He was afraid that Tang Yan would go in too hard and cause both sides to suffer in the end.
Noticing this, Sheng Xiao, calmer than the chief, said, “If Tang Yan is really a reckless person, he wouldn’t have been able to endure until now. He doesn’t want others to be implicated because of him.”
“So, you shouldn’t be worried about whether he’ll cause trouble or not. Instead, you should be thinking about how to help him save people.”
“CEO Sheng, how are you so sure that Tang Yan won’t kill Cheng Bin?”
“He wants to, but he won’t. Because he knows that if he kills someone, there won’t be a future for him and Feng Shanshan. Not only that, but he also has the self-awareness of a police officer. His soul won’t allow him to do this.”
The bureau chief looked at Sheng Xiao in surprise. He felt that even after working with Tang Yan for so long, he did not understand him as well as Sheng Xiao did.
“Then you should have told us this afternoon.”
“Had I told you and had you chased after him relentlessly, do you think he would still be so calm as to wait at the agreed location for Cheng Bin?”
The bureau chief looked at Sheng Xiao, deep in thought.
This man had always maintained the same emotions as if he did not know what panic was.
“Alright, I’ll go deploy the rescue plan now. I hope we can make it in time.”
“Wait.” Sheng Xiao took out his phone and sent the photo to the chief. “This is the terrain survey that Tang Yan went in to do in advance to facilitate your deployment.”
“CEO Sheng, it’s such a pity that you’re not a police officer.”
“Hurry up. You still have three hours.” Sheng Xiao looked at his watch. Once tonight’s matter was settled, it would be time for him and Tang Yan to fight back.
“May I ask why you’re helping Tang Yan this much?” The bureau chief was a little confused. Sheng Xiao was the CEO of a well-known company, yet he was running around for a criminal police officer. It was really unbelievable.
“For my Qi’er.”
Because he did not want her to be worried and upset about Feng Shanshan.
“Alright, let’s stop here for today. I’ll go prepare the plan first.”
After saying that, the chief quickly left the office.
..
It was already ten o’clock in the night.
Feng Shanshan had been unconscious for an entire day. Finally, she woke up in a small washroom.
When she woke up, she found her personal clothes and jewelry gone. Qi’er’s GPS system was hidden inside, and now she did not know where she had gone.
She was very hungry and tired, but she didn’t dare to say anything because she didn’t want to be sure that she had fallen into Cheng Bin’s hands. Because if that was the case, her man would be in great danger.
Before she could think, the bathroom door was suddenly pushed open. A middle-aged woman with hot milk in her hand squatted in front of Feng Shanshan. “Drink it. I think you’re hungry too.”
“Who are you? Where is this place? Auntie, can you…”
“Miss, since you’re pregnant, don’t fight back. This will be good for you and the child. What do you think about that?” The middle-aged woman’s voice was cold and emotionless. She brought the milk to Feng Shanshan’s mouth and poured it down.
“Can I drink it myself?”
“No, I’m afraid you’ll hurt yourself.” After saying that, the middle-aged woman continued to pour the milk down her throat until the glass was empty. “Rest well tonight.”
After saying that, the woman got up and closed the bathroom door after her, not giving Feng Shanshan any time to ask any more questions.
Feng Shanshan carefully observed the bathroom and smelled something.
She had smelled it at Song Qiaozhi’s house in the morning. It seemed to be… the fragrance of gardenias.
Did this mean that she was still in that apartment?
Thinking of this, Feng Shanshan was a little excited, but only for a second. It was the season for gardenias now, so they were everywhere, meaning that they might not still be in the same area.
What would happen outside tonight?
That man… was he… going crazy from anxiety?
If it really was Cheng Bin who had gotten her, Feng Shanshan did not dare to think too deeply about it because he was here for revenge. Tang Yan would definitely be tortured by him. However, if she was locked up here, what could Cheng Bin use to threaten Tang Yan?
The more she thought about it, the more questions emerged in her heart. There were so many questions that she did not have an answer to.
Never had she thought that she would experience being a real hostage first-hand. And another question floated to her mind: When danger really came, who would she prefer to live?
If she was no longer here, could that man still live?
