The two men looked at each other. Although it was the first time they had encountered something as unusual as this, they thought Huo Yao knew better than to retaliate, so they got into the car without finding anything amiss with her.
After all, they were at Tsing University’s school entrance. If they got into a fight, and people came to help, it would spell trouble.
Moreover, they had already spent all day waiting for her at the school, so they did not want anything to go wrong.

Chen Ming’s car arrived at school two minutes after they left.
Since he knew she was a very punctual person, he always arrived five minutes ahead of time.
He sat in the car and waited for ten minutes until it was past 5:00 pm, but she was nowhere to be seen.
Chen Ming looked at the school entrance. He felt she might have gotten held up at school, so he decided not to send her any text messages and simply waited for a few more minutes.
Chen Ming kept waiting until 5:20 pm. After that, he started to get a little worried. His instincts were telling him something was wrong.
After the recent interaction, Chen Ming knew that Huo Yao was a woman of principles. If she was held up, she would definitely call ahead of time.
Chen Ming narrowed his eyes. He retrieved his phone and called Huo Yao.
Meanwhile, in the car.
After Huo Yao got into the car, her phone was taken from her. Also, they took her backpack as well. Prof Zhao’s biological computer was inside her bag.
Her phone suddenly rang instantly breaking the silence in the car.
The man sitting beside her was holding her phone. The moment it started to ring, he automatically frowned and wanted to turn it off.
Huo Yao glanced at the man. She could tell what he was planning. A second before he was about to reject the call, she gave him a chance out of the kindness of her heart and said, “I suggest you answer the phone. Otherwise, you will get into a lot of trouble.”
The man looked at Huo Yao sideways. His skull-shaped earring glinted menacingly as he scoffed gently. “Are you trying to be funny?”
Sure enough, she was just a young girl who did not know better. Did she have any business threatening men like them?
In an instant, he rejected the call.
Huo Yao shook her head gently. For once, she wanted to be nice, but they did not take her seriously.
Since they were keen on dying, there was no saving them.
After the man hung up the phone, Chen Ming frowned even harder.
The phone suddenly was disconnected after ringing for a very long time. Chen Ming was particularly sensitive towards unusual situations like this, so he was almost certain that something had happened to Huo Yao.
Chen Ming did not continue trying to reach her by phone. He was unsure whether something had happened to her, so if he continued to call her recklessly, he might endanger her.
What if Miss Huo had encountered some business rivals of the family? Chen Ming clenched his fists tightly. He did not even dare to imagine this possibility. Young Master Yulin was once kidnapped. He could not imagine what would happen if history repeated itself on her.
Chen Ming inhaled deeply. He swiped down his phone book for his subordinate’s number and instructed him to check the school surveillance immediately.
He did not dare to call Huo Yulin for now, out of fear that it would trigger his trauma.
After all, he had only recently overcome the anguish that he suffered when he was abducted.

Huo Yao sat in the car with the vicious-looking hooligans. It seemed as though she was not in danger as she leaned against the car window languidly and rested.
It was simply mind boggling.
The car arrived at a villa entrance 30 minutes later.
