Chapter 1002 Assassination
Annie continued to persuade Chen Dong, "Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about Sister Zhou Huimin. You've been so busy with company matters lately that you haven't had time to spend with Sister Zhou Huimin."
"And what about her? Her home theater project has just been launched, and she's taking a break from her busy schedule."
"The Freemasons have been quiet lately, so you two can enjoy some time alone."
Hearing what Annie said, Chen Dong was somewhat tempted.
“Besides, QQ has already announced its withdrawal from the European and American markets. The Freemasons will definitely not let this go. Who knows what bad things they are up to right now,” Annie said to Chen Dong with a bitter face.
"The next Freemason operation must be coming soon, so let's make the most of this time and enjoy some alone time together."
When asked about the Freemasons' planned actions, Chen Dong recalled the previous kidnapping of Zhou Huimin.
This time, the Freemasons are enraged. If they try to harm Vivian Chow again, Vivian might really be in danger.
While thinking, Chen Dong said to Annie, "You're right, I really can't leave Zhou Huimin alone during this time."
"The Freemasons have been silent, they must be plotting something. It's too dangerous to leave Zhou Huimin alone on Huaxia Star at this time."
"Annie, have the company send a car. I need to head to Huaxia Star."
Anne nodded. "Okay, I'll go arrange it right away."
As usual, Chen Dong rode in the company car, followed by a bodyguard team led by Wolong.
Annie thought that once Chen Dong was sent to Huaxia Star, he could finally rest easy.
For the next two days, she spent time with Lin Zhiyuan, jointly handling company affairs.
What was supposed to be a normal vacation turned into something extraordinary when Zhou Huimin called headquarters.
"Why isn't Chen Dong answering his phone?" Zhou Huimin asked. "Didn't he say he was coming to Huaxia Star? I've been waiting for him at the company for the past two days."
"Sister Huimin, don't scare me." Anning looked at Lin Zhiyuan in a panic. Lin Zhiyuan quickly gestured for her to turn on the speakerphone. Then Anning explained, "The boss went back to Huaxia Star two days ago."
"What?!" Zhou Huimin was silent for two minutes before saying, "Something must have happened."
"Beep beep beep—"
The call was abruptly ended.
Annie was in a panic and quickly tried to call Wolong, but after several attempts, she couldn't reach the company's bodyguard team.
Lin Zhiyuan stepped forward and asked, "What happened? Didn't Chen Dong leave two days ago?"
“Something must have gone wrong. We can’t get in touch with our bodyguards, and we don’t know where the boss is.” Annie said, trying to calm herself down as she made a phone call to Longteng’s security team.
“This situation is very similar to when Zhou Huimin was kidnapped before,” Annie quickly said to Lin Zhiyuan. “Something must have happened to the boss. I’m contacting Longteng’s security team to search along the way.”
Even after hastily dispatching the guards, Anne was still worried.
“A few years ago, when Zhou Huimin was kidnapped, we hired the Madrid Angels Mercenary Group. We still have contact with their leader. I tried to persuade them to come out of retirement and find a boss.”
Although Anne was flustered, her years of experience in the business world had taught her to control her emotions and remain calm and composed.
Just as Annie was about to leave the office, Lin Zhiyuan stopped her and asked seriously, "Is this matter related to the Freemasons?"
After all, the Freemasons were behind the kidnapping of Vivian Chow, so this incident makes people wonder if Chen Dong's disappearance is also related to the Freemasons.
“Very likely.” Annie thought for a moment. The only people they had offended recently were Jack Ma, the CEO of Tencent, and the Freemasons behind him.
Apart from that, other ordinary media or industrial enterprises would not take such a risk to eliminate competitors.
“The Freemasons are ruthless and powerful. They control a large number of mercenaries and are capable of anything,” Annie said, becoming increasingly nervous.
If the Freemasons send mercenaries, then Chen Dong will be in danger.
“Annie, stay calm for now. Secretly contact the mercenary group and ask them to help find Chen Dong, but don’t reveal that Chen Dong is missing,” Lin Zhiyuan reminded her. “The Freemasons haven’t made any big moves yet, which means they don’t want to publicize the matter.”
“Think about it,” Lin Zhiyuan said to Annie with a gloomy face. “If the Freemasons have succeeded in assassinating Chen Dong, they will definitely take this opportunity to plunder the Longteng Group.” “The Freemasons are not a patient organization.”
Anne also offered her own speculation: "I think there are two possibilities. First, they did indeed take action against the boss and succeeded, but for some reason, they were afraid of being exposed, so they had to keep it a secret."
"Secondly, they sent assassins to kill the boss, but our bodyguard team stopped them. However, the bodyguard team suffered heavy losses, and Chen Dong and I are currently avoiding the Freemason assassins."
Lin Zhiyuan gritted his teeth and analyzed seriously, "If the boss were dead, they would definitely take over Longteng as quickly as possible, but they haven't made a move yet, which means the first possibility is not true."
Anne continued, adding, "But if the boss hadn't died, the bodyguards would definitely have brought Chen Dong back. Now there's no news of either the bodyguards or Chen Dong, so it's highly likely they've already had a direct confrontation, and both the bodyguards and Chen Dong are injured."
