At this moment, Lu Zhengqian arrived. He received the news much later than Chu Jiahe; it was Chu Jiahe who notified him.
"Uncle Lu, don't worry." Chu Jiahe helped the staggering Lu Zhengqian and asked, "Think about it, do you have any enemies?"
Lu Zhengqian could roughly guess who it was, and said cover-up: "Nephew, it's inevitable to offend some people when doing business, but who would be so despicable as to kidnap my daughter? I really can't think of anyone right now."
"Uncle Lu, if the kidnappers contact you, please let me know immediately," Chu Jiahe instructed before leaving the monitoring room to make the call.
"Hey, Uncle, I need to ask you for a favor!"
"..."
“It’s not that I don’t believe it, it’s just too slow. She’s just a little girl, she’ll be scared.”
"..."
Lu Zhengqian watched Chu Jiahe's retreating figure, filled with regret.
Back in Qinglong Bay, Lu Zhengqian quickly gathered his men.
Looking at the dense crowd standing downstairs at the villa, Lu Zhengqian turned to Ali and asked, "Where are Acheng and Azhong?"
Ali said, "Young Master Cheng took a plane early this morning, but I don't know where he flew to. Fourth Master is in Canglin."
Canglin was once He Zhong's drug empire. Not far from Canglan, it's likely they want to take advantage of the chaos in Canglan to make a quick buck, or perhaps they have even bigger ambitions.
"It's a critical moment, and there's no one I can rely on." Lu Zhengqian hurriedly went downstairs.
At this moment, Fu Shaojie rushed over with anxious steps and ran into Lu Zhengqian at the stairwell.
"Dad, where is my sister? Tell me, I'll go save her."
The worry in his eyes seemed genuine, and he was still wearing loose pajamas, as if he had just rolled out of bed. Lu Zhengqian's heart softened, and he instructed, "Come here."
He casually mentioned a few names and asked Ali to call them all to the study.
Among them was Zhang Po, kneeling on the ground, trembling.
Lu Zhengqian stepped forward personally, kicked him to the ground, and said angrily, "If the young lady does anything, I'll skin you alive."
To maintain the authority of the Green Dragon Gang leader, he almost never personally punished anyone, so he must be really angry. However, he doesn't have time to argue with Zhang Po and the others right now.
Ali quickly helped Mr. Fu and led him behind the desk.
A huge city map lay spread out on the desk. Having dealt with them for many years, he had some understanding of the Pang family's foundation. Lu Zhengqian circled the possible hiding places of Pang Lou according to probability and instructed, "You split into four groups and search carefully one by one in order. Remember, if you find any trace of the young lady, do not act rashly, and report to me immediately."
If it's not found in any of these places, then Pang Lou has risked leaving Jin Hai, making it even harder to find him. For now, we can only take it one step at a time. Lu Zhengqian reminded them, "The police and military are both searching. Behave yourselves and don't cause trouble."
"Yes!" Everyone departed.
Not long after, Lu Zhengqian's WeChat message rang; it was a video. Gan Tang was lying on the lime ground, her hands tied to a rusty iron post.
A large hand covered the softest part of her chest, kneading and pinching it hard. Even in her sleep, she trembled with pain, her veins bulging.
Immediately afterwards, the phone rang.
"Listen carefully, I want 1 billion yuan and Mo Huaixing's head, otherwise, I will rape and kill your precious daughter and then dump her under the Lu Group building."
Lu Zhengqian calmly said, "The account, you tell me!"
“Mr. Fu is indeed straightforward.” After Pang Lou finished mentioning the private overseas account, he calculated the time and ordered, “I want to see the video of Mo Huaixing’s head rolling by tomorrow morning at the latest.”
With technology so advanced these days, Pang Lou was worried that Fu Yuanshan was playing a trick, so he changed his mind after saying that: "Send me the head, and I'll send you the address in a bit."
Lu Zhengqian hurriedly asked, "Where is my daughter?"
There was no response, and the call was immediately disconnected. Pang Lou was very cautious, worried that his phone might be located. Half an hour later, he changed locations, used a different phone, and continued to call Lu Zhengqian.
"Mr. Fu, where's the money?"
Lu Zhengqian gritted his teeth and said, "No matter how rich I am, I can't possibly have that much money lying in my account right now. I'm already raising it."
"Where is Mo Huaixing's head?" Pang Lou's words were brief.
"I've already sent him back, but I can't deliver the head to you."
Pang Lou sneered: "What, a dog is more important than your daughter's life?"
Lu Zhengqian angrily said, "Take a look at how the idiots under your command are doing their jobs. They can even leave traces by kidnapping someone. The police are already investigating. How do you expect me to deliver her to you? Don't forget, she's not only my daughter, but also Chu Mingxuan's goddaughter."
Pang Lou thought for a moment and said, "Then bring the person to me, and I'll kill him myself."
Even when facing death, he could not forget this immense hatred.
Lu Zhengqian asked again, "Where is my daughter?"
"I will send you back once I have safely left the country."
You think I'd believe that?
Hearing Lu Zhengqian's frustrated voice, Pang Lou laughed heartily, "You have no choice but to listen to me. By the way, I know you have people on the border. I'll need your help to get me out later."
The call was disconnected again.
Ali walked up to Lu Zhengqian and shook his head: "Still can't find the location. Mr. Fu, why don't we tell Young Master Chu? After all, the military's positioning system is top-notch."
Lu Zhengqian hesitated. He had initially asked Mo Huaixing to detain Pang Lou for two reasons: first, he wanted what Pang Lou possessed; second, he feared Pang Lou might have evidence against him. Although he had always been cautious and had only made a deal with the Pang family ten years ago, destroying all the evidence, the possibility of Pang family members being caught and revealing his name remained a potential threat.
