Chapter 228: Life is at Risk
A cold wind blew into the room, and I followed it, with my hair messed up by the wind.
The balcony was empty, there was nothing on it.
I breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhao Ning walked around the room and found nothing.
Fortunately, I restored the scene before going downstairs.
Otherwise, I’m afraid my life would be in danger now.
Zhao Ning walked around and his doubts were dispelled by 90%. When he saw me leaning against the door, the purple marks on my neck contrasted sharply with my fair skin, he felt even more guilty.
"Momo, I'm sorry, I saw it wrongly, I thought..."
"Why?" I pretended to be aggrieved, "You still don't believe me. If that's the case, how can our relationship continue?"
"You can continue!" Zhao Ning was flustered like a child. He quickly went downstairs and put the food he bought in front of me. "I bought a lot, Momo, come and have a look."
After all the trouble I just had and being so nervous, I feel a little hungry now that I have relaxed.
Zhao Ning put the food in front of me. I ate it with relish. He didn't move, but just rested his chin on his hand and watched me eat.
I ate uncomfortably and pushed the food in front of him, "You eat too."
Zhao Ning shook his head and looked at me with a smile: "I'm not hungry. I'm very happy just watching you eat."
What he said gave me goosebumps, and the delicious food in front of me became tasteless.
Putting down my chopsticks, I asked him in confusion, "Zhao Ning, from the press conference to the kidnapping, your career has been smooth sailing. Now you have come to this point because of me. Is it worth it?"
Zhao Ning nodded firmly. "I don't have such a big ambition for my career, otherwise I wouldn't be a wild model. I chose to sign the contract entirely for you. Momo, do you know? From the first time I saw you, I knew that you were the woman I wanted to start a family with. So at all costs, I will keep you firmly by my side."
"But between family members, I won't let you lock yourself up. I don't want you to do this to me."
"Shut up, shut up!" Zhao Ning started to get excited again.
"Okay, okay, I won't tell you." I shut up in fear.
Zhao Ning was unyielding and said with determination: "I can't care about so many things now, I just want you to be by my side. Momo, don't try to escape anymore, if you behave yourself, you can suffer less."
His eyes were burning, but I just felt so nauseous that it made me dizzy.
Seeing Zhao Ning getting closer and closer to me, I clenched my hands, pushed him away just when he was about to touch my lips, and ran into the bathroom.
While pretending to vomit, he started flushing the water.
I locked myself in the bathroom until I heard Zhao Ning's voice outside, "Momo, you should have a good rest tonight. We have a long way to go."
I was so scared that cold sweat broke out on my back.
I can get away with it today, but what about tomorrow and the day after tomorrow?
I leaned against the bathroom door, hugged myself in fear and curled up.
"Jiang Yichen, come here soon." I sobbed softly.
Jiang Yichen is also getting closer to the truth at full speed.
The person he sent to look for Zhao Ning brought back news that Zhao Ning had not been to the company for several days.
When I went to the place where he rented a house, it was also empty.
It was as if Zhao Ning had disappeared from the face of the earth.
Jiang Yichen kicked open the door of Zhao Ning's rental apartment, and the people who shared the apartment were startled.
When he saw Jiang Yichen, he hid behind her in fear as if he had seen the god of plague.
"Who... who are you? I'm calling the police!"
Jiang Yichen didn't even look at them. He looked around the empty room and glanced at his men.
Two big men in black suits lifted up the two men.
"Where is Zhao Ning?"
"I...I don't know. He hasn't come back for several days."
Just as his men were about to take action, Jiang Yichen stopped him.
He took a step with his long legs, walked up to the two of them, and looked down at them condescendingly.
"Someone's missing, but you didn't call the police? My patience is limited, so I'll ask you one last time, where is Zhao Ning?"
“We really don’t know…Ah!!”
Jiang Yichen raised his foot and stepped hard on the knee of one of the men, twisting it left and right, causing the other man to scream in pain.
The other man would have almost fallen to his knees if he hadn't been supported by his men.
"We...we really don't know where he is. Since he signed with the company, he has been away from home every few days. We are used to it."
Seeing that they really didn't know, Jiang Yichen had no intention of playing tricks on them. He raised his foot, turned around and left.
"How about it?"
Seeing Jiang Yichen coming out, Gu Bai chased after him.
Those who have been around Jiang Yichen these days can feel the low pressure on him and dare not speak.
Gu Bai knew that the scene inside would be horrifying, so he didn't go in.
"Zhao Ning is missing. These two things are such a coincidence." Jiang Yichen said a few simple words.
Then he took out his cell phone and made a call.
"Let's do it."
He had contacted his contacts at the police station long ago, but was worried that they would find out, so he kept it in the open while the police remained in the dark.
Now that the suspect has been confirmed to be Zhao Ning, there is nothing to hide. The most important thing is to find Momo as soon as possible.
"Okay, the police are already dispatched. Jiang Yichen, I order you now to go back and rest." Lin Nan dragged Jiang Yichen into the car.
Jiang Yichen still didn't dare to relax. He couldn't close his eyes for a whole day without seeing Momo.
But Lin Nan was right, the Jiang Group still depended on him, and the issue of the press conference had not been resolved yet.
His head was aching so much that it was about to explode. If it weren't for his willpower supporting him, he would have fainted by now.
Jiang Yichen got in the car and went straight to Jiang's house. He decided to work at home so that if he got any news about Momo, he could get away immediately.
When I got home, it was already very late.
He lit a cigarette, pushed open the door of Jiang's house, sent the nanny away, and sat on the sofa alone.
Apart from a desk lamp, there was only the flickering light of a flame, revealing his murky mood.
His subordinate's phone rang and he answered it.
He has not spoken a word since he came back, and whenever he opens his mouth, his throat becomes extremely hoarse.
"Momo, follow the clues I gave you and continue to check the surrounding self-built houses with roosters crowing. The police have already sent more people. Don't relax. I want to see the person in one day at most."
"yes!"
As soon as the other party hung up the phone, a sound came from behind Jiang Yichen.
"What did you say?! What happened to Momo?"
Grandma came over trembling, leaning on a cane.
"Grandma." Jiang Yichen stood up and wanted to greet him, but when he stood up, his hands and feet went numb and he fell back on the sofa dizzy.
"My dear grandson, look at you now."
Grandma touched his face distressedly, tears rolled around in her eyes and then fell, "Tell grandma the truth, has something happened to Momo? I know that except Momo, no one can make you so decadent."
"It's okay, grandma. I've sent more people to look for her." Jiang Yichen comforted her.
"Hey, she's still pregnant! What if something goes wrong?"
