Chapter 261 Lu Jinye Goes Missing
"Ah~ these things, we can talk about them in detail later!" Senbon seemed uninterested, and he looked down at his watch as if he was having trouble. "Tian'ao, I have a meeting and I'm in a hurry, I have to go first!"
"Talk about it later? Why later? What am I supposed to do now? And weren't all those things I just mentioned already agreed upon?"
Zhou Tian'ao sensed the other party's reluctance in his words, and he immediately grabbed Qianben's sleeve in a panic.
"Could it be... could it be that you're going to go back on your word? Mr. Senbon! If you hadn't promised me terms several times better than those in China, I would never have left the China Racing Club! You can't betray me; you must honor your promise to me now!"
"Mr. Zhou Tian'ao, to be honest, it was just a verbal promise back then. Did we sign anything in black and white, or say that we had to provide anything? Besides, didn't we agree on this? The prerequisite for us to fulfill our promise and support you is that you must win this international competition!"
Senbon was clearly impatient, but he couldn't show it because of the large crowd. He cleared his throat and lowered his voice to continue, "Now that you've lost the race, the fact that our club is still accepting you as a contracted driver is already the greatest respect we can give you!"
"Screw your dignity! You! You two-faced scoundrels! You liars! Still spouting high-sounding words here! Now that things have come to this, even if I wanted to go back to China, no racing club in China would accept me! You made me betray my country, and you've made me the target of everyone's condemnation and scorn!"
Losing the race and then being betrayed—this humiliation enraged Zhou Tian'ao. He grabbed Senbon by the collar and shouted at the crowd, "Everyone! Look at me! Look at these shameless Japanese! They rigged Crayon Koni's race car, almost injuring her and causing her to lose! And other Japanese competitors also cheated! Everything I'm saying is true, and I can testify to disqualify them!"
This is no different from a thunderbolt from a clear sky.
The referees and staff at the stadium rushed to the scene immediately upon hearing the news!
Faced with the pointing fingers and whispers of the crowd, Senbon's face turned ashen. "Don't listen to his nonsense! He's insane! He's a madman!"
"What exactly happened? You two come with me, and we'll find out!" The people sent by the event organizers looked impartial and led them away from the scene before the situation escalated further.
Wen Ni witnessed the entire scene.
Those who do evil will not live long.
It's never too late for someone who has made a mistake to recognize it and turn back in time. But those who resort to scheming and underhanded tactics will eventually be exposed and will certainly not have a good end!
She smiled with satisfaction, turned around to avoid the reporters who were coming to interview her, and planned to leave first.
But as soon as she turned around, before she could even take a step, a figure blocked her way!
She frowned subconsciously and looked at the person in front of her, only to see Lu Jinbai looking anxious.
"Lu Jinbai? What's wrong?"
"Wen Ni! I can't get in touch with my brother and Qin Yuan!"
Lu Jinbai frowned, took out his phone and quickly scrolled through it a couple of times before handing it to Wen Ni after finding his chat interface with Lu Jinye.
"Look, I sent my brother messages and made phone calls, but he hasn't replied! When I flew here this morning, my brother clearly told me that he was on his way too, but it's almost evening now, and there's still no sign of them!"
“If Lu Jinye says he’ll come, he will definitely come. He won’t suddenly break his promise, and he won’t disappear without a reason.” Wen Ni’s face was somber, and her lips were pursed white.
"Could something have happened?" Lu Jinbai immediately thought of the worst, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. "Have those people who want my brother dead attacked him again?"
"If you can't get in touch with Qin Yuan, what about Baron?"
"Barron? Barron didn't come with them, so I forgot about him..." Lu Jinbai suddenly slapped his forehead, his eyes reddening. "I'm so stupid..."
“You’ve never been through anything like this with Lu Jinye, so it’s normal to panic.” Wen Ni remained calm, her fingers hovering over her phone screen as if they were about to fly off. “I’m contacting Baron now!”
She drifted off into thought as she listened to the dial tone on the phone.
The Lu family protected Lu Jinbai too well. Compared to Lu Jinye, who grew up in fear, Lu Jinbai was like a flower in a greenhouse. He never encountered danger, and his grandparents, parents, and brother always took care of everything for him.
Perhaps it was because Lu Jinye had such a hard childhood that he couldn't bear to see his younger brother suffer any harm. His strictness towards his brother was a silent form of protection!
Thinking this, Wen Ni's heart ached even more.
"Hello? Miss Nini? Why did you suddenly decide to call me? Did you miss me?" Baron's carefree laughter came from the other end of the phone.
"Lu Jinye has disappeared."
"..." There was a three-second silence on the other end of the phone, followed by a loud crashing sound as something shattered on the floor, and then Baron's serious voice, slightly heavy with breathing, "What? You're saying Master Lu is missing!? What about Qin Yuan? What about that idiot Qin Yuan?"
“I couldn’t get in touch with them, otherwise I wouldn’t have contacted you.” Wen Ni said succinctly. “You must have a way to find their location, right?”
"Yes, wait for me."
Barron uttered those three words and quickly hung up the phone.
Less than a minute
Wen Ni received the location information sent by Barron on WeChat!
“Miss Nini, this is the data transmitted from the tracking chip on Qin Yuan. Finding Qin Yuan will definitely lead to Master Lu! That kid, even if he dies, he must die by Master Lu's side!” The wind howled on the phone, and Baron's voice was hoarse and anxious. “I have already dispatched other people in Beicheng to that area. Miss Nini, please be careful!”
"Okay." Wen Ni lowered her eyes and took a step forward. "Don't say such discouraging things. They won't die. Not a single one of them can die."
"Um……"
After hanging up the phone, Wen Ni coldly led Lu Jinbai out!
Seeing that they were walking in a hurry, Gao Yang and the others quickly followed.
"Wen Ni, you were absolutely amazing today! Not only did you win the world championship, but you also gave the Japanese a real slap in the face! That was so satisfying! You..."
"Gao Yang! Stop talking now." Sheng Jiang, with his keen eye, noticed that Wen Ni and her companion seemed to be in a hurry and their expressions were off. He immediately said, "Where are you rushing off to? Do you need a car? I'll arrange one for you right away!"
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Sheng!"
"Won't."
"..."
The private supercar that Sheng Jiang lent to Wen Ni was full of power. It sped out from the underground of the race center and headed straight for the location data!
It was a cornfield in the countryside, far from the city.
According to satellite maps, there should also be an abandoned warehouse.
About one kilometer from the destination
Even the roar of the engines could not drown out the intermittent gunfire!
Wen Ni's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, clenched painfully once again...
