Chapter 104 Will He Come to Save You?
When Pei Jingyan arrived at the set, it was already in chaos.
Not only did a star suddenly disappear here, but the missing person was Shen Lai.
Everyone knows that Chen Lai is Pei Jingyan's wife.
Seeing Pei Jingyan, Wan Shilan hurried over to greet him, "Boss Pei!"
Pei Jingyan exuded a chilling coldness, and his voice was low and dangerous. "You'd better give me a reasonable explanation."
Wan Shilan broke out in a cold sweat. "Boss Pei, I really didn't know anything about this. Just now, Shen Lai said she wanted to go to the bathroom, so I waited for her outside. But she didn't come back after waiting for a long time. I felt something was wrong and went to check. She was gone, and there was only this left on the floor."
Pei Jingyan glanced at the thing in Wan Shilan's palm and recognized it as Shen Lai's cell phone.
The screen above is scratched, and it's obvious that it was hit hard and shattered.
At this moment, Wan Shilan seemed to have thought of something. "Oh, by the way, when the crew and I went back to check, we found this handkerchief in the trash can."
She seemed to be stuttering a little when she said this, and said with a stiff upper lip: "We asked someone to check, and this handkerchief contains ether..."
As soon as the words fell, the temperature around them suddenly dropped. Looking at Pei Jingyan's aura that was as cold as a sword, everyone present was so frightened by the low pressure from him that they dared not breathe.
After an unknown amount of time, Pei Jingyan finally spoke up, "Where's the surveillance?"
The person in charge of the studio was waiting for this sentence. Upon hearing it, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Boss Pei, we have checked the surveillance outside the women's restroom. Miss Shen has not come out since she went in. The most suspicious person now is the cleaner."
Pei Jingyan took the tablet and saw the monitoring page. He pressed the play button and the images started playing.
Around six o'clock in the afternoon, Shen Lai's figure appeared on the surveillance camera at the bathroom door. She was wearing casual clothes and still had makeup on her face from the crew.
Not long after Shen Lai entered the bathroom, a man in cleaner's clothes followed in pushing a cart and placed a sign at the door saying "Under maintenance, do not use."
About ten minutes later, the cleaner poked her head out of the bathroom, looked around, and then came out pushing a cleaning cart.
Pei Jingyan narrowed his eyes slightly.
He noticed that the cleaner was pushing the cart easily before he went in, but it became very difficult after he came out.
It's like there's something extra in there.
At this time, Wan Shilan next to him suddenly spoke up, "Isn't this the cleaner I met on the road when I went to look for Shen Lai?"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Wan Shilan.
Pei Jingyan frowned, "Have you seen this person?"
Wan Shilan nodded and said, "When I went to look for Shen Lai, she happened to come out with a cart. At that time, I thought she was just a cleaner."
At that time, she wondered why the man had such difficulty pushing the cart, but she was only concerned with finding Chen Lai and didn't think too much about it.
I didn't expect that this person was the one who kidnapped Shen Lai.
At the end of the surveillance video, the man disappeared in the direction of the back door and then disappeared without a trace.
Pei Jingyan looked up at the person in charge and asked, "Where's the surveillance camera at the back door?"
The person in charge swallowed hard and said, "Boss Pei, the back door leads to the alley, and there's no surveillance."
Pei Jingyan's eyes turned cold in an instant.
This means that the clues about Shen Lai are completely cut off here.
-
The dim warehouse was filled with a cramped atmosphere, and as the iron door opened, countless dust particles floated in the air.
A figure walked up to Shen Lai and splashed the cold water in his hand on his face without hesitation.
Shen Lai woke up with a start.
She opened her eyes with difficulty, water droplets hung on her eyelashes, and her wet hair stuck to her cheeks, adding a touch of fragile beauty to her.
What came into view was a dim environment, which looked like an abandoned warehouse with countless scrap metals piled up in the corner.
At this time, Shen Lai noticed the figure standing in front of her. She slowly raised her head and saw Bai Hansui's face shrouded in shadow.
The memories before he fell into a coma came flooding back, and Shen Lai remembered them all.
It was Bai Hansui who attacked her in the bathroom and tied her up here.
Chen Lai suddenly thought of the familiar figure she met on the set today. It seemed that she was not mistaken. The staff member was indeed Bai Hansui.
"Chen Lai, long time no see." Bai Hansui's voice was low and cold.
Shen Lai moved subconsciously, but found that her hands were tied up at some point. She forced herself to calm down and looked at Bai Hansui, "What are you doing?"
Bai Hansui sneered, "Can't you see it?"
Shen Lai took a breath and said, "You are committing a crime. Do you want to die?"
Bai Hansui was like she was hearing a joke. "Crime? In my current state, what's the difference between committing a crime and not committing a crime?"
Shen Lai frowned, and the next second Bai Hansui pinched her face and forced her to look up, "If it weren't for you, how could I have ended up like this?"
Chen Lai looked directly into Bai Hansui's eyes and said calmly, "You deserve this fate because of your own actions. What does it have to do with me?"
If Bai Hansui had not repeatedly harmed her on the show, her true identity would not have been exposed.
Bai Hansui gritted her teeth, "If you hadn't teamed up with Pei Jingyan to plot against me, how could I have ended up like this? The company terminated my contract, and Huo Chilin broke up with me too!"
Now not only is she disgraced, but even her relatives and friends are laughing at her.
Even her parents thought she was embarrassing and told her to stay home and not embarrass herself by going out.
All this was Shen Lai's fault.
If it weren't for Chen Lai, she would still be a glamorous big star now, instead of a rat crossing the street that everyone wants to kill!
Chen Lai didn't know how Bai Hansui had the nerve to push the blame onto her. She looked at Bai Hansui coldly: "Even if it's like you said, Pei Jingyan and I plotted against you, but if you didn't have any other intentions, why would you take the bait?"
Bai Hansui seemed to have been hit in a sore spot, and slapped her in anger, "Shut up!"
Shen Lai's head was tilted by the blow. She slowly turned to look at Bai Hansui without changing her expression. "Bai Hansui, you've done wrong things before. Don't make mistakes again."
"Let me go now, and I promise not to tell anyone about what happened today."
Bai Hansui laughed, a look of madness in his eyes. "I've been following you for so long, and finally kidnapped you. How could I let you go so easily?"
Hearing this, Shen Lai's heart sank slightly.
She couldn't help but think of the feeling of being watched a few days ago. It turned out that it was not her illusion, but Bai Hansui had been following her.
Bai Hansui finally calmed down from her frenzied mood. She glanced at her watch and said, "Pei Jingyan should know that you are missing by now."
"Tell me, if I tell him that you are in my hands, will he come to rescue you?"
