Chapter 371 Kidnapping

As the largest investor in Xiaowan Village Resort, Lin Zhou took the main seat at the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

His absence will cause a lot of suspicion behind the scenes and there will be a lot of trouble later.

For the newly opened Xiaowan Village, this situation is undoubtedly the most feared.

She quickly asked Tian Fushun, and only then did she know that Lin Zhou had gone to find her.

But she has been back for so long, didn’t Li Jing and the others notify Lin Zhou?

On the stage, many investors were still standing there waiting for the ribbon-cutting ceremony to begin. Without giving it any thought, she quickly called Lin Zhou.

The phone was picked up after only one ring, but the person who answered was not Lin Zhou - it was Liang Xiao.

Liang Xiao said on the phone that Lin Zhou was kidnapped and asked her to bring money to redeem her as soon as possible, otherwise she would be killed.

How ridiculous!

She hung up the phone and asked Li Jing to call Lin Hai. These two people were always together, so they would definitely be able to get in touch.

However, when Li Jing called, Lin Hai was still looking for her in the village, saying that Lin Zhou had not called him.

Now she panicked!

Lin Zhou's phone was in Liang Xiao's hands, so her words couldn't be trusted. But Lin Zhou was a self-reliant man. It was a well-known fact that he didn't like Liang Xiao, so he would never give her his phone, let alone let her say such things.

Besides, Lin Zhou was going to look for her. How could he let Liang Xiao answer her call?

There must be something wrong here.

She quickly asked Li Jing to contact Lin Hai to find someone, and she returned to the stage, hurriedly held the ribbon-cutting ceremony, and ended the opening ceremony.

The crowds dispersed and the resort officially opened for business.

She immediately asked for leave from Tian Fushun and hurried to find Lin Zhou.

Lin Hai and Li Jing have contacted everyone who had contact with Lin Zhou today, and they all said that Lin Zhou was not with them.

Several people called again.

But this time, the person who answered the phone was Liu Bo.

"You run, don't you? You're quite capable, aren't you?"

Liu Bo laughed wildly on the phone, and provoked her as he laughed: "I'm telling you, I can let go of what happened just now, but if you still care about your boyfriend's life or death, get back here right now..."

Tian Xin exploded when she heard this: "What did you do to him? Where is he?"

"He's at the old place, where you just ran away from." Liu Bo said, "I didn't do anything to him, but you know I don't have much patience. I want money, you want the person, bring one million and I'll let him go. If you don't come, I can't say for sure. Oh, by the way, let me remind you, don't call the police, otherwise, you will only see his corpse..."

"Son of a bitch……"

Before she could finish, the other end hung up.

She called again, but the call was no longer picked up.

But a MMS was sent.

In the photo, Lin Zhou is tied to a chair, head bowed, seemingly unconscious. Beside him is Liang Xiao, also tied up and looking terrified.

Lin Hai was furious when he saw the photo. He gritted his teeth, grabbed her collar and started yelling, "Are you a fucking human? Ah? How has Lin Zhou ever wronged you? Why do you treat him like this? Why don't you just die?"

"What does this have to do with her? Why are you so mad?" Li Jing slapped her hands and scolded her, "What's the point of scolding her when the matter hasn't been clarified yet? Let her go."

"It has nothing to do with him. How could Lin Zhou be kidnapped? What's the relationship between that man and her? Why does he keep causing trouble for her? How dare she say she didn't know?"

"Let me ask you," Lin Hai turned around and asked her through gritted teeth, "Where did you go just now? Why couldn't anyone find you? And how did you get back?"

Tian Xin knew she was in the wrong, so she didn't say a word in rebuttal. But she remained calm, pulling Lin Hai's hand away and walking away. She didn't want to answer these questions, and she couldn't.

"Don't leave. Explain it to me..." Seeing that she wanted to leave, Lin Hai grabbed her and pulled her back: "Explain it to me, what exactly is going on? Where is the place that man mentioned?"

"Do you want to find him?"

She turned around and said calmly, "Is now the time to pursue these questions? Does my relationship with him matter? You ask me these questions, but why don't you think about why Liang Xiao has his phone? Where is she? Why was Lin Zhou kidnapped by Liu Bo? When did he leave?"

She had just thought about these questions.

However, she didn't want to mention even a word about that half-hour experience.

She escaped back with her life, but in order not to affect the smooth progress of the ceremony, she did not dare to call the police.

But she didn't know that Lin Zhou would go looking for her, and she didn't know that Lin Zhou had picked up her lost mobile phone in the garden. She took the opportunity to be deceived by Liang Xiao and lured him to Liu Bo in her name.

So, at this moment, she just wanted to see Lin Zhou as soon as possible, instead of engaging in meaningless tug-of-war with Lin Hai.

Lin Hai was also stumped by her question. After a few seconds of silence, he let her go.

Zhang Shuai and his group soon followed.

She asked Li Jing to prepare the money, Lin Hai and Zhang Shuai followed her secretly, and Gao Wen and Gao Cheng stayed at the scenic area. If she didn't come back by the agreed time, they would call the police.

Everything is going on quietly and at a fast pace.

If it was just Liu Bo, she wouldn't be afraid at all. But...who was that tightly wrapped woman beside him? What hatred did they have?

When Tian Xin was carrying a suitcase and rushing to the agreed place alone, Lin Zhou just woke up.

He found himself in a dilapidated house.

The reason why it is called dilapidated is that the house has neither windows nor any furnishings. It is an old brick and tile house that has been in disrepair for a long time, the kind that people lived in in the 1950s and 1960s.

There are no windows, the house lacks light, is extremely dark and damp, and exudes a musty smell.

Not only did he frown, but when he tried to get up and leave, he realized that he was tied to a chair and couldn't move at all.

"Are you awake?" Liang Xiao asked him weakly, her eyes dodging left and right, not daring to look at him, but she couldn't help but look back.

He was stunned for a moment, and felt a dull pain at the back of his head, and finally remembered why he was here.

"Where's Tian Xin? Where is she? What did you do to her?"

Liang Xiao was also tied up.

Hearing his question, she burst into tears.

"I don't know either. I was deceived by them. Lin Zhou, you have to believe me. I didn't mean to harm you. They deceived me and went back on their word..."

"them?"

Lin Zhou was puzzled: "Who are they? I asked you where Tian Xin is? Why are you telling me this?"

He tried to struggle a few times, but it was no use. He was tied up with a steel wire rope as thick as a thumb, and the rope was tied in a knot. Even if he tried to untie it, it might not be possible in a short time.

Liang Xiao cried even harder, explaining while crying: "I don't know where Tian Xin is, I just want you to come back with me. They said that if I bring you here, they can help me deal with Tian Xin and make her unable to be with you anymore..."

"So you believed it?" Lin Zhou was furious.

How stupid must one be to be easily deceived like this?

He didn't know that Liang Xiao's stupidity was purely due to jealousy.

She cared about Lin Zhou so much, but no matter what she did, she couldn't get him to look back at her.

But what she couldn't get, Tian Xin could easily get without doing anything.

How can it be so cheap?

So, she hated her!

"I……"

She was about to answer when a woman suddenly pushed the door open and interrupted her.

The man was wrapped tightly, with only his eyes showing.

She glanced at Lin Zhou with a sinister look, then smiled contemptuously and said, "Don't worry, your Tian Xin will be here soon. It's too early to get angry now, so don't waste your energy!"
