Chapter 41 He was kidnapped
My eyes widened and my brain started to work rapidly.
No, I must be dreaming. Considering how much Jiang Yichen hates me, how could he really kiss me?
The impression was so vague that I just thought I remembered it wrong.
Soon, I was back to my normal life.
Every day I go between the company and home.
Although life is dull, it is also extremely fulfilling.
Since the poisoning incident, Jiang Yichen hasn't bothered me again, which is a good thing for me.
But it seems that God doesn't intend to let me live in peace.
I just finished a live broadcast and saw that my parents sent me a video.
There were a dozen more calls from them that I didn’t answer.
In order to better concentrate on my work, I always keep my phone on silent when doing live broadcasts.
So it was more than an hour later when I saw their message.
However, as soon as I opened the video, my head felt like it had exploded and everything went dark.
In the video, my brother's limbs were tied up and his mouth was taped shut.
He was kidnapped!
When I saw this scene, my heart instantly panicked and I quickly called my parents.
The call only rang for two seconds before being answered.
Before I could open my mouth to ask, their anxious voices rang out, accompanied by my mother's crying.
"Momo, what should we do? Your brother has been kidnapped."
I tried to stay calm as much as possible and comforted them.
"Mom and Dad, don't worry, wait until I get back."
My words seemed to give them a reassurance, and they agreed repeatedly.
I quickly asked Lao Mo for leave and went home.
…
As soon as I entered the door, I heard my parents crying hysterically.
My heart couldn't help but wrench itself up.
When the two saw me, they came forward and grabbed my wrist, speaking in an urgent tone.
"Momo, please save your brother as soon as possible. We can't just watch him die."
I also know that I should save people, but how should I save them?
Perhaps seeing what I was thinking, my mother cried even louder and continued to beg, "Momo, can you go and beg Jiang Yichen? He is the only one who can save your brother now."
She was right. In Tongcheng, Jiang Yichen could do whatever he wanted.
But I don’t want to owe anyone a favor…
Although I felt helpless, I still chose to agree and went directly to find Jiang Yichen.
But before I could even see him, I was stopped by Lin Nan.
After learning my intention, she said mercilessly, "Gu Mo, don't look for Yi Chen first every time something goes wrong. Know your position clearly."
Facing her ridicule, I endured it all and lowered my posture, "I know I shouldn't do this, but I really have no choice. Only he can save my brother."
If it wasn't for Gu Bai, if it wasn't because I was really anxious, how could I have come to see him?
Hearing my answer, Lin Nan sneered and asked directly, "How do you know that he is definitely unaware of this?"
Hearing this, I couldn't help but be stunned for two seconds, and asked in disbelief, "He knows?"
He actually knew!
Lin Nan crossed his arms and said calmly, "He knows all these things, but he decided to avoid suspicion with you in order to prevent the outside world from spreading rumors about you and him."
This statement is well-founded and I really have no way to refute it.
"During the dinner, he deliberately clarified your relationship with him. Wasn't it because of this? He didn't want to ruin the Jiang family's reputation because of you."
Lin Nan’s words stabbed into my heart like a knife.
I never thought that Jiang Yichen would have such an idea.
I lowered my head, with dejection written all over my face.
But the more Lin Nan saw me like this, the more proud he became.
She kept stabbing me with the knife.
"If you really have any sense, you shouldn't bother him again and again."
I was so heartbroken that I turned and left.
However, after taking a few steps, I heard Jiang Yichen's voice.
He asked Lin Nan if I had gotten into trouble again.
So, in his heart, I am just a troublemaker?
My heart sank and I left quickly.
Then I called Chen Yan.
Hearing her concerned voice, I couldn't hold back my emotions any longer.
She shed tears and cried to Chen Yan, choking with sobs, "Yan Yan, my brother has been kidnapped."
Hearing this, Chen Yan immediately became serious and hurriedly asked about the situation.
"Momo, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to help you. Where are you now? I'll come find you."
Chen Yan and I made an appointment to meet at a cafe.
However, she did not come alone.
I didn't think Song Le would come too.
After sitting down, Chen Yan asked with concern, "Momo, what's going on?"
Hearing this, I took out the video sent by my parents and handed it to the two of them.
After Chen Yan finished reading it, worry showed on her face, but she still tried her best to comfort me.
"It's okay, Momo. Let's work together to find out what conditions the kidnappers are asking for. What do they want?"
Whenever I mentioned my brother, there was a hint of tears in my voice.
I shook my head helplessly and said, "The kidnappers only sent the video and haven't put forward any conditions. What should I do?"
I grabbed her hand eagerly, as if it were a life-saving straw.
But Chen Yan suddenly looked embarrassed.
I immediately realized something was wrong, and my heart sank a little, "Yan Yan, did something happen to you?"
Chen Yan had a troubled look on his face, and said truthfully, "I invested in a project abroad some time ago, but it failed, and I didn't even get my money back."
As soon as she said this, I knew she couldn't help me anymore.
She continued, "My parents were very angry when they found out about this, and they froze my card and restricted my spending."
"Momo, although I can't help you, I brought Song Le here. One more person means more strength."
Song Le immediately stated, "Gu Mo, don't worry, whether you need money or find someone, I will help you."
When Chen Yan saw his attitude, she immediately complained about Jiang Yichen.
"Jiang Yichen is such a jerk. After all, he got his start because of the Gu family. He just stood by and watched when Gu Bai got into trouble. How heartless."
Hearing this, I smiled bitterly. It was understandable that Jiang Yichen was unwilling to help.
After all, my brother and I didn't treat him very well back then, so the fact that he didn't attack us was the greatest blessing he could have.
Perhaps sensing that I was in a bad mood, Song Le said, "Let's face this together."
But I hesitated.
Thinking of Jiang Yichen’s previous attitude, I couldn’t help but worry.
I don't want to implicate Song Le because of myself.
But if I don’t accept his help, what will happen to my brother?
I was struggling inside.
Seeing that I didn't respond for a long time, Song Le seemed to guess what was in my mind.
"Gu Mo, rescuing Gu Bai is the most important thing now."
Hearing this, I was deeply moved.
After the accident, only Song Le and Chen Yan have been helping me sincerely without expecting anything in return.
I nodded slightly and responded gratefully, "Thank you very much."
