The dark, damp little room was completely enclosed.
"Ouch, it hurts..." Li Younan, lying on the ground, suddenly muttered unconsciously. Then she opened her eyes, and upon seeing her surroundings, she instinctively screamed.
Jiang Kefan frowned, quickly covered her mouth with his hand, and whispered, "Don't make a sound, there are bad people outside."
Li Younan's voice vanished instantly from his palm. She was stunned for a moment, then blinked and nodded seriously.
Jiang Kefan only slowly released her hand after confirming several times that she wouldn't scream.
She fearfully moved closer to Jiang Kefan and asked nervously, "Jiang Kefan, have we been kidnapped by bad guys?"
He nodded helplessly: "Yes, but I guessed that the other party's target for kidnapping was me, but I didn't expect it would involve you."
"I'm so scared. You said we've been kidnapped by bad guys. Does that mean I'll never see Dad again?" Li Younan looked at him and suddenly asked with red eyes.
They were, after all, just two children. Throughout the kidnapping ordeal, they were constantly filled with unease and fear. This was especially true for Li Younan, a girl, whose emotional distress and breakdown were even more severe.
He shook his head, reached out and ruffled Li Younan's hair, and whispered to comfort her, "Don't be afraid. As long as I'm here, I will protect you. We will definitely escape from here."
After hearing his assurance, she felt much more at ease and nodded, saying, "Yes, I believe you."
Jiang Kefan looked at her and continued, "So you have to listen to me and not move or say anything out of line, understand?"
Li Younan nodded seriously. Although she was usually carefree and tomboyish, she was still just a girl, and in this situation, she could only rely on Jiang Kefan.
While working, Li Bin suddenly received a call from his teacher at school. The teacher told him that Li Younan was missing.
"How could this be?" Li Bin exclaimed in shock.
How could Li Younan suddenly disappear? Realizing that something might have happened to his daughter, he hung up the phone and immediately went to his editor-in-chief to ask for leave.
Afterwards, he frantically went out to search for Li Younan, leaving no place unchecked, especially the places she frequented. Seeing that he had no results whatsoever, Li Bin's eyes instantly turned red with anxiety.
"Maybe Li Younan is out playing and has already gone home by now." Having considered this possibility, he immediately returned home. However, upon opening the door, he found the room completely dark and quickly ruled out this possibility.
Li Bin was immediately filled with anxiety, suddenly remembering what his teacher had said. Perhaps Jiang Kefan's parents had already found them, and Li Younan might be with them. Without time to think further, he rushed to the Gu Group.
However, he did not expect that he would be stopped by the security guards at the gate when he entered the group's gate.
The security guard looked at him and said calmly, "Sir, you cannot go in."
Li Bin immediately said urgently, "I really have something to discuss with your president, please make an exception for me."
"Sorry, you can't go in without identification," the security guard said coldly.
He suddenly raised his voice urgently, "I really know your president. Please go in and inform him that Li Younan's father is looking for him." He was really going crazy with anxiety. At this moment, he wanted to rush in without caring about anything else.
When Gu Yiming drove back to the company headquarters, he saw the scene unfolding at the main gate from afar. He frowned sharply, got out of his car, and strode up to the security guard: "What exactly happened?"
Upon seeing him, the security guard immediately said respectfully, "President, this gentleman wants to come in to see you, but we cannot let him in without proper identification."
Gu Yiming nodded, then looked at Li Bin and asked with suspicion, "Aren't you Li Younan's father?"
"Yes, yes, yes! Do you know where my daughter Li Younan is? I heard from her teacher that they've all disappeared, so I came to you to ask what's going on?" Li Bin said excitedly.
Gu Yiming narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the security guard, saying calmly, "I know him, you can let him through."
Upon hearing Gu Yiming's instructions, the security guard nodded in agreement and immediately allowed Li Bin to enter the company premises.
"Come with me." He glanced at Li Bin, said this, and strode into the company. Although Li Bin was suspicious, he obediently followed him.
Upon arriving at the office, Gu Yiming suddenly turned to Li Bin and said, "I just received the news that your daughter and my son have been kidnapped."
Li Bin stared wide-eyed in shock, his mind blank, and exclaimed in disbelief, "How could this be?"
He simply couldn't imagine what kind of treatment Li Younan would receive if she were kidnapped. She was just a child. Who could be so heartless as to kidnap two children?
Gu Yiming sighed helplessly. He knew the kidnappers' target was only Fanfan; Li Younan's kidnapping was entirely due to Fanfan's involvement. He looked at Li Bin and solemnly swore, "Don't worry, I will definitely rescue them!"
Before he could finish speaking, Li Bin pleaded excitedly, "I want to go too! Please take me with you to save my daughter!"
Gu Yiming thought for a moment, then finally nodded: "Okay, let's set off now."
With a loud bang, the door to the small dark room was suddenly opened. When Li Younan saw someone enter the room, he fearfully moved closer to Jiang Kefan beside him.
Jiang Kefan patted her shoulder, a silent gesture of comfort. Then, looking at the kidnappers in front of him, he calmly asked, "What is your purpose in kidnapping us?"
The lead kidnapper looked at Jiang Kefan with surprise, then sneered, "I didn't expect you to be so calm, kid. You really are Gu Yiming's son."
Li Younan clenched his fists inwardly, his heart filled with fear, but his face was filled with resentment as he glared at the kidnapper and shouted, "I will not allow you to hurt Jiang Kefan!"
The kidnapper raised an eyebrow and sneered, "Oh, so young and already trying to be a hero? Since you put it that way, I'll grant your wish." He then looked at his men behind him and coldly ordered, "Drag her out!"
Seeing the kidnappers about to drag Li Younan out of the dark room, Jiang Kefan could no longer remain calm and shouted angrily, "Let her go! If you have the guts, come at me!" As he spoke, he rushed forward and grabbed the kidnapper's leg tightly! He even opened his mouth wide and bit the kidnapper's hand hard!
The kidnapper felt the pain, yanked him away, and said coldly, "Hold him down!"
His subordinate immediately stepped forward to stop the frenzied Jiang Kefan, coldly saying despite his struggles, "Behave yourself!"
At the same time, Jiang Hua suddenly heard Jiang Kefan's voice, looked at the kidnapper in front of her and said excitedly, "I want to see my son!"
