It was all his fault for being so focused on fighting with Shen Feng and trying to get PEI GE back. He had neglected the fact that Shen Feng was not the only one who wanted to harm him and cause them to fall apart.
“I …” He paused, his voice sounding a little guilty.”I don’t know either, but it should be related to Liu Lina. I haven’t gotten someone to investigate that person’s background clearly yet, so he wasn’t vigilant enough and allowed him to take advantage of the loophole.”
As he said this, he kicked the wheel beside him in frustration. The pain from his toe seemed to make him feel better, but it was not really good.
“Wait for me here for a while. I’ll try again when I get there and see if I can locate it accurately.” Cheng Ningyuan pressed his Bluetooth headset and hung up the phone without asking further. Instead, he tightened his grip on the steering wheel and stepped harder on the accelerator. The scene of her whispering to him in the Japanese mountains kept replaying in his mind as if it had just happened yesterday.
The sky was already dark, and the dim street lights shone down from the car window, reflecting Cheng Ningyuan’s unruly side profile in the driver’s seat. He looked even more reserved as the four wheels spun quickly, seemingly carrying his ardent hopes for PEI GE …
When he heard no sound from the other end of the phone, he frowned at his phone screen and sighed helplessly.””Pei Pei, are you alright? You can’t be hurt!”
On the other end, Wen Xin and Shen Feng were also in the same carriage, and they were hurrying over to them without stopping.
In the car, Huang tie was the driver, Wen Xin sat in the passenger’s seat, while Shen Feng sat upright in the back seat. Through the rearview mirror, Wen Xin would occasionally cast a prying look at Shen Feng’s narrowed eyes.
However, after looking at him a few times, all she saw was Shen Feng’s cold and handsome face that was devoid of any color. Wen Xin could not help but draw in a cold breath.
The atmosphere in the car was just as Wen Xin had expected the moment she had received Cheng Ningyuan’s call. It was already at its lowest point, as if it was trying to freeze her alive in the car.
“How long more?” All of a sudden, Shen Feng narrowed his eyes and asked. Wen Xin didn’t know if her BOSS was asking her or if they were in Huang tie, but in order to not let the temperature in the car drop further, she spoke first,”Mr. Shen, it’s not far. According to the location sent by Cheng ning, we should be there in about 20 minutes.”
Shen Feng didn’t reply and continued to squint his eyes. His two large hands seemed to be placed on his knees, but his joints seemed a little pale. He didn’t make a sound, but it seemed like he was holding onto something very tightly.
“Drive faster!” Suddenly, Shen Feng spat out this sentence.
“Yes, big brother,” This time, Huang tie was able to firmly judge that Shen Feng was asking him, so he hurriedly gave a response.
“Mr. Shen, you don’t have to worry. Cheng Ningyuan has already rushed over, and I just checked. The person who kidnapped sister Pei Pei is just a Golden Triangle businessman who is negotiating with the Ji family. Without any special identity or background, he wouldn’t dare to do anything to sister Pei Pei!” As Wenxin looked at the documents on her computer, she would occasionally send comforting messages to Shen Feng through the rearview mirror.
Shen Feng still didn’t open his eyes. His deeply furrowed brows seemed to have been rubbed into a ball of wool, and his face darkened even more.
Seeing this, Wen Xin continued,””Maybe sister Pei Pei just needs to tell them your name and your reputation in Southeast Asia and Thailand and you’ll be out of danger!”
Huang tie, who was driving steadily at the side, couldn’t help but say, “You’re too naive. I’m just afraid that the person who kidnapped sister Pei Pei isn’t her at all, but someone else! If she was used as a chess piece, she didn’t know how dangerous it would be. She might even be killed! Furthermore, with big brother’s current status, it’s not appropriate for him to show his face and settle this personally, otherwise …”
After saying that, Huang tie’s eyes rolled and he looked at Shen Feng’s direction through the rearview mirror like Wen Xin, as if waiting for an answer.
Shen Feng really opened his mouth, but what he said was as inconsequential as before, “Let’s talk about it when we get there. Focus on driving!”
Huang tie didn’t get the answer he wanted, so he replied in embarrassment,”I know, big brother!”
Wen Xin stuck out her tongue and did not say anything else. The carriage returned to its previous calm, with only the rapidly spinning wheels as proof of Shen Feng’s heart that was constantly clenched but pretending to be calm.
Shen Feng actually understood what Huang tie meant. If he used the power he had in Gus, Thailand, he could easily save PEI GE. However, now was not the best time to reveal his power to the man, so he took a gamble with himself. He believed that since the man was also there, if he still loved PEI GE deeply, he would do his best to save her. Then, he would have nothing to worry about.
However, he still felt that he had let her down by placing her fate in Ji Ziming’s hands. His past with her also reminded him that sometimes, in order to get something, he had to lose something. For example, if he had the chance to take revenge, he had to lose his bottom line and principles to get her …
Inside the warehouse, ah hei looked as if he was waiting for a lottery ticket to be drawn. His eyes narrowed and his expression was serious as he fiddled with PEI GE’s phone, which had been turned off.
Suddenly, the man in the suit with the computer came forward and reported to ah hei,””Big brother, there are two more cars coming in from the direction of the village entrance. It seems that they are all coming for us!”
“Good, very good!” A ‘hei’s dark eyes exuded a faint light, and the smile on the corner of his mouth made people’s pores stand on end.
“Big brother, do we need to move our position? Or should we just wait for them?” It was obvious that the man in the suit in charge of IT did not understand ah hei’s smile and continued to ask.
“No need. We’ll just wait here. When they all rush over, I’ll catch them all in one fell swoop!” A ‘hei swallowed his saliva and said with a torch-like gaze.
“Okay, I got it, big brother!” The man in the suit understood what he meant. He was about to turn around and continue to watch the surveillance video when he heard ah hei’s cold command.”Take a closer look. How many people are in their cars?”
“Big brother, don’t be afraid. Although we only have seven or eight people, we have powerful explosives. Even if they have three cars and a dozen people, we still have a good chance of winning!” The man in the suit said proudly.
