Chapter 153 Disfigured
"What did you say?"
Xie Yanchuan felt like he was struck by lightning for a moment and could not believe what he heard.
Even his usually nonchalant tone now contained some gnashing of teeth and even a slight tremor.
He had clearly made a perfect plan for dealing with the situation, so how could this happen?
Who is the person hiding in the dark?
Who else could, under such circumstances, completely kidnap someone and make them disappear right under his nose?
Xie Yanchuan had a brainstorm in an instant.
But Yue Lin, who was sitting opposite him, actually started crying.
She knew how important Jiang Wanning was to Xie Yanchuan, and she could probably guess that there might be many unexpected events at today's banquet, so she stayed closely by Jiang Wanning's side and didn't dare to leave even a step.
Until just now, Yue Lin went to the car to find a space to put on her shawl, and the total time was no more than five minutes.
But she didn't expect that after she came back, the person had disappeared.
"I really don't know what happened. I just went to the car to get a cape, and in just five minutes, Ningning disappeared...!"
"I've looked everywhere, but I can't find her..." Yue Lin was panicked, and her tone was filled with strong self-blame.
"Why at this critical moment? Mr. Xie, could this be someone targeting the Jiang family?"
Fortunately, Xie Yanchuan came here quickly, and no one else caught up and knew the news at the same time.
Seeing that the people who were in the banquet hall before were also following his footsteps and trying to find here, Xie Yanchuan's eyes gradually turned cold.
He was only panicked for a moment, but now he has forced himself to calm down.
"Have you checked the monitoring room?"
"Not yet." Yue Lin shook her head: "I was just about to go over when I saw you coming over."
"Well, you go over and take a look later. Don't make it public in advance." His tone was a little serious. At the same time, he turned around and faced the group of people headed by the Xie family, who were ready and waiting for an answer.
"Once I've dealt with these people, I'll join you."
…
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Jiang Wanning woke up from a burst of pain and a splitting headache.
It was pitch black all around, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.
Jiang Wanning didn't know how long she had been unconscious.
She tried to move, but found that her hands and feet were tied tightly and she could not move at all.
Jiang Wanning struggled hard, trying to judge the surrounding environment.
At this moment, a beam of light suddenly appeared above her, and then a woman wearing a hat walked in from outside.
"Haha, nice to meet you again, Jiang Wanning."
Jiang Wanning squinted her eyes and adjusted for a while before accepting the dazzling light.
At the same time, she listened to this familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar voice, her eyes widened in disbelief.
"Meng Zhenyue."
Jiang Wanning gritted her teeth and recognized the other person's identity.
About half an hour ago, when Jiang Wanning was still waiting to go to the banquet, he saw her when he opened the door.
However, Meng Zhenyue was wearing a hat and a mask at the time. She felt a moment of familiarity, but she couldn't confirm the other person's true identity.
But she was stunned for just a moment before someone covered her mouth and nose and gave her a drug that made her unconscious.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Wanning lost consciousness, and when she woke up again, she was already at this place.
The reason why Jiang Wanning was in disbelief at this moment was because of the face of Meng Zhenyue in front of her.
It was still a face that was almost exactly the same as hers, but now it had been ruined by someone. The originally delicate face was covered with hideous scars.
The cuts were very deep, some of them had just scabbed over and had not yet fully healed, obviously having happened not long ago.
She had been wearing a hat and a mask when she met Jiang Wanning before. Now that she had taken them off completely, Jiang Wanning was able to fully witness her true appearance.
"Is it scary?"
As if noticing Jiang Wanning's shock, Meng Zhenyue suddenly laughed softly in the darkness.
It was just that the laughter seemed gentle, yet it seemed to be faintly suppressing some kind of emotion that was about to go crazy.
"My face was destroyed just half a month ago. Do you know who did it?"
Jiang Wanning saw her hideous and terrifying face and couldn't help but close her eyes.
"I don't want to know."
"Who destroyed your face? It shouldn't have anything to do with me, right?"
"Why did you tie me up here?"
But Meng Zhenyue opposite her seemed to not want her to be like this at all, and she shook her and forced her to meet his gaze.
There was a hysterical madness in that: "How come it has nothing to do with you?"
"I've already told you, Jiang Wanning! I've clearly warned you, why do you still continue to contact Xie Yanchuan?!"
Facing Meng Zhenyue's almost distorted expression, it seemed as if an answer was about to come out of her mouth.
Jiang Wanning seemed to suddenly remember a few days ago when she went looking for Meng Zhenyue but couldn't find her.
At that time, Xie Yanchuan had a strange and inexplicably afraid attitude that she might know something.
The moment she thought of this, Jiang Wanning's face seemed a little panicked.
Sure enough, she couldn't escape the capture of Meng Zhenyue who was sitting opposite her.
The next second, the woman burst into an even more triumphant, even hysterical laugh: "You really are scared, Jiang Wanning, you really are scared!"
"You must have guessed it, right? Xie Yanchuan was responsible for turning my face into what it is now!"
Under the dazzling white light behind him, the horrible scars on Meng Zhenyue's face appeared even more eerie in the shadows, as if they were evil spirits crawling out of hell and ready to eat people at any time, making people's hair stand on end.
"I'm telling you, Jiang Wanning, do you really think Xie Yanchuan is a good person?"
"All the gentleness and consideration he displays in front of you is just an act. In private, he is such a terrifying and sinister devil!!"
