Ye Wenyu blushed and smiled as she thanked him.

The air was so thick you could almost pull out strands of sugar.

Lin Tingfeng looked at Ye Wenyu and slowly asked her, "Just a verbal thank you?" She had hugged him once before, so today, he wanted more. His eyes were smiling, and his tone was as slow as a silk thread being slowly drawn from an old wooden box.

Ye Wenyu understood what he meant, and blushed, like a beautiful sunset in winter. She said to him, "Okay." Then she leaned over and gently kissed him on the cheek.

Lin Tingfeng couldn't help but smile, feeling extremely happy.

The air was as sweet as honey.

Ye Wenyu's face turned as red as if it were about to bleed. She whispered to him, "Drive carefully and don't think about anything. It's dangerous!" Her voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzz, but her face became crescent-shaped, as if she were drunk.

Lin Tingfeng smiled and agreed, while music played softly in the car.

After a moment of silence, Ye Wenyu, remembering her goal, spoke to Lin Tingfeng like a headmaster: "Tingfeng, look at Cai Wenchuan, he's kind and honest by nature. So, since he's good to us, you should be good to him too, okay? You should be a good person in the future, and be more tolerant of them, okay?"

"Of course, you've changed me a lot. I used to be really bad, always harboring murderous intent and ruthlessness in my heart. Now I'm much more gentle and composed." She didn't expect Lin Tingfeng to agree so readily and be willing to change for her.

Golden sunlight streamed through the car window, like golden threads flowing from a loom.

Hearing Lin Tingfeng say this, Ye Wenyu smiled with relief.

Lin Tingfeng gradually came to understand that forgiving others is forgiving yourself, and letting go of others is actually letting go of yourself.

He is much happier than before.

The two went into a Western restaurant, ate their meal, and came out at 11 p.m.

The sky was dark, like a blind well, with only a few sparse streetlights casting a dim yellow light, like the sleepy eyes of a camelman.

This Western restaurant seems to be in a bit of a remote area.

Lin Tingfeng stood there, and for some reason, he felt inexplicably uneasy.

It was past midnight, and with the bad weather, there were hardly any pedestrians on the street. Everything looked deserted and eerily quiet.

The parking lot was a bit far from the restaurant, and it was pouring rain at the time. Lin Tingfeng was worried that Ye Wenyu would get wet if she followed him to the parking lot, so he said gently to Ye Wenyu, "Wait for me by the roadside. I'll drive out and then pick you up."

Ye Wenyu nodded, like an obedient child, and waited meekly under the eaves.

Lin Tingfeng then went to find a car in the rain.

The incident happened the instant he drove out of the car, looking for Ye Wenyu and wanting to ask her to get in!

It was almost midnight, and with the rain and cold weather, there were few pedestrians on the road. He drove slowly, searching for Ye Wenyu. Just as he found her, she saw him and his car, smiled and waved at him, and despite the heavy rain, ran quickly towards him. Worried that she would catch a cold from the rain, he stepped on the gas, wanting to shorten the distance between them as quickly as possible.

Just then, two masked men suddenly sprang out from behind a row of parked cars, moving with lightning speed, and lunged menacingly at Ye Wenyu.

The distance was too great for Lin Tingfeng to react before he saw the two masked men tie Ye Wenyu up by the back of her head, put a large sack over her head, and drag her away quickly, disappearing into an alley at lightning speed.

Lin Tingfeng first chased after him in his car, but when he reached the alley entrance, the car couldn't go in. He had no choice but to get out of the car quickly and run into the alley, but he had already disappeared without a trace.

That girl has been kidnapped!

Lin Tingfeng was at a loss, like a trapped beast, pacing back and forth in the empty alley, a sense of powerlessness washing over him like a tide.

His eyes were wide open and bloodshot from fear and pain. At the same time, his mind went blank and a buzzing sound rang in his ears.

The world was quiet, but he was like a raging beast.

He took out his phone, then put it down again, because he didn't know who to call. Should he call the police? He was afraid, lest the kidnappers kill her. Should he not call the police? He was worried about Xiaoyu's safety!

Should he call her mother? No, things are already troublesome enough for him. Calling the elderly woman would only cause pain for two more people.

So the only way? It's to wait for the kidnappers' call. Those two thugs are obviously gangsters. As for why he could tell at a glance, it's because he used to ask gangsters to do things for him.

Moreover, from the very beginning, he knew that this matter was aimed at him. If he was not mistaken, it was aimed at the one-third share of the Lin Group in his hands!

Lin Tingfeng stood there blankly, like a statue, with only his two hands hanging at his sides trembling like leaves in a storm.

He tried to calm himself down. Being anxious would only lead to careless thinking and cause serious problems, so he had to calm down and make rational deductions. He was certain that Xiaoyu was safe for the time being. The only thing he could do was wait for a call and then use his shares to exchange for Xiaoyu's safety.

Therefore, Lin Tingfeng composed himself, quietly returned to his car, and waited for the call.

The night was very long, and the rain outside continued to fall endlessly, like silver threads and golden needles, seemingly without end.

For Lin Tingfeng, a minute felt like a year. He found his hands and feet trembling, and he was sweating profusely, his back and forehead covered in layers of sweat.
