In the spacious living room, the butler, driver, and servants gathered together, their faces filled with tension and anxiety. Each of them had a look of deep worry in their eyes, as if they were waiting for some bad news.
"Tell me! Why is the madam missing?" Gu Jisui's tone was irritable, his face was ashen, and his brows were furrowed, as if he wanted to pour out all his dissatisfaction and anger.
"I...I don't know," the driver stammered. His face was pale, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. "My wife called me to pick her up, but when I got there, no one was there. I called the housekeeper, but he said she didn't come back on her own."
"Waste!" Gu Jisui shouted angrily. He turned and looked at everyone, "There are so many of you, but you can't even keep an eye on my wife! What use do I have for you!"
The atmosphere in the living room became increasingly depressing, and everyone felt heartbroken.
Gu Jisui's anger swept over like a storm. He stared at everyone, as if trying to find the answer from them.
"Master, we are truly sorry." The butler took a deep breath, trying to calm himself. "We have been doing our best to protect Madam, but today she said she wanted to attend a class reunion and refused to allow us and her bodyguards to accompany her, saying it would affect the atmosphere among the classmates. We did not expect this to happen."
“The most important thing now is finding the missus,” the driver added, his voice trembling slightly. “We’ll do everything we can to find her.”
Gu Jisui was silent for a moment, he took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down. He knew that now was not the time to lose his temper, but to find Shen Yuan as soon as possible.
"Okay, let's split up." Gu Jisui decided to take action. "Driver, you go investigate the place where the lady was last seen. Butler, you organize the servants to search nearby. I will contact the police and ask for their help."
Everyone agreed in unison, left the living room, and began to look for Shen Yuan. The entire villa was brightly lit, like a bright lighthouse shining in the dark night.
Gu Jisui's face was filled with worry and anxiety. He picked up his phone and quickly dialed the police station. He knew this was the only thing he could do at the moment.
After the call was connected, Gu Jisui briefly described the circumstances of Shen Yuan's disappearance and requested the police to immediately assist in the search. His words revealed an eagerness and anxiety that made people feel his inner worry.
After hanging up the phone, Gu Jisui took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He knew that he had to stay calm at this moment in order to better deal with the next situation.
While waiting for the police to arrive, Gu Jisui checked Shen Yuan's room and belongings again, trying to find some clues. However, everything in the room was in order and there was nothing unusual.
Time passed by minute by minute, and everyone's heart was in their throat. They anxiously waited for the police to arrive, hoping to find Shen Yuan as soon as possible.
Finally, the sound of a police car sounded outside the villa, and several policemen quickly entered the villa. Gu Jisui immediately reported the situation to them and asked them to start the search immediately.
The police began a detailed search operation, carefully checking every corner and questioning every servant. However, several hours passed and still no trace of Shen Yuan was found.
Gu Jisui's heart was filled with anxiety and uneasiness, and he felt a sense of helplessness and despair. He knew that if he couldn't find Shen Yuan, he would never be able to forgive himself.
As night fell, the lights in the villa were still bright. However, the bright lights could not dispel the haze and worries in people's hearts. Everyone was silently praying for Shen Yuan's safe return.
Gu Jisui's phone suddenly rang. He picked up the phone and asked impatiently, "Who are you?"
The voice on the other end of the phone shocked him instantly. The other party said coldly: "Who am I? Shen Yuan is in my hands now. Guess who I am?"
Gu Jisui gripped the phone tightly, his brow furrowed, a sense of foreboding welling up in his heart. Trying to remain calm, he asked, "What are your conditions?"
The other party sneered and said, "It's very simple. As long as you cooperate with me, I will let her go."
Gu Jisui was silent for a moment, then said: "Okay, I promise you. But you must ensure Shen Yuan's safety."
The other party seemed very satisfied and continued, "Very good. We will meet at 8 o'clock tomorrow night at the abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city. Remember, don't bring the police, otherwise..."
Gu Jisui didn't answer, but a glint of determination flashed in his eyes. He hung up the phone and took a deep breath. He knew that he would have to face a difficult challenge next.
The next night, Gu Jisui arrived at the abandoned factory on time. He saw a black car parked at the door, with a man wearing a mask sitting inside. Gu Jisui walked over, and the man opened the car door after seeing him.
Gu Jisui saw Shen Yuan tied up in the car. She looked weak, but still alive. His heart tightened, but he remained calm. He asked, "How is she now?"
The man sneered and said, "It's okay for now. She's just a little hungry now."
Gu Jisui took a deep breath and said, "What do you want?"
The man said, "It's simple. If you do something for me, I will let her go."
Gu Jisui was silent for a moment, then said, "Okay, I promise you. But you must ensure her safety."
The man seemed very satisfied and continued, "Very good. Remember, don't play tricks, otherwise..."
Gu Jisui did not answer, but a glimmer of determination flashed in his eyes.
Who kidnapped Shen Yuan?
Gu Jisui sat in front of the large desk, holding the phone tightly in his hand. His eyes were deep and cold, and his brows were furrowed, as if he wanted to concentrate all his doubts and anger in these eyes.
His face revealed a cold and serious look, as if a chill was emanating from him.
He called his assistant.
"Boss, what's wrong?" The assistant's voice on the other end of the phone sounded sleepy.
The boss called in the middle of the night, it must be something urgent.
"Hurry up and go investigate the location where my wife, Shen Yuan, disappeared. Find out who kidnapped her. Find the mastermind behind this. Quickly!"
Gu Jisui's voice was serious and cold, and every word revealed his determination and firmness.
His face was ashen and his brows were furrowed, as if he wanted to concentrate all his anger in this sentence.
"My wife has been kidnapped? Okay, I'll go investigate right away!"
The assistant's voice also became tense, and he immediately got up and prepared to start the investigation. His face also became solemn, as he knew the importance of his boss's order.
