Su Qing stumbled out of Chushi Group, her high heels clicking on the marble floor. Each click was like a knife stabbing into her heart, and the pain was so severe that she almost couldn't breathe.
She felt like a stray dog abandoned by the whole world. In this glamorous city, she seemed so out of place, so... ridiculous!
She walked in a daze, her mind blank, with only Chu Tianche's cold and ruthless face and those icy words:
"Anything is fine? Su Qing, do you think you still have any value that I can use?"
"No, I still have value... I still have... Yes! I still have a way!"
Su Qing was like a drowning person grabbing a life-saving straw, and madness suddenly burst out of her originally dull eyes.
"Chu Tianche, don't you like Chen Xiaoru? Wouldn't you do anything for her? Fine! I'll let you taste the pain of losing your loved one! I'll make you suffer unbearably!
She took out her cell phone and dialed a number, her voice hoarse and vicious:
"Hey, it's me... help me kidnap someone... yes, the former secretary of Chu Tianche, her name is Chen Xiaoru... I want to make her suffer a fate worse than death!"
After hanging up the phone, Su Qing showed a hideous smile on her face, like a devil crawling out of hell.
She looked up at the towering building of Chushi Group, her eyes filled with resentment and madness.
"Chu Tianche, you forced me to do this, you forced me to do this!"
Su Qing turned around and disappeared in the crowded street, like a poisonous snake lurking in the dark, waiting for the moment when its prey appeared.
The next day, Chen Xiaoru was preparing to go to the hospital for a check-up.
When she just walked out of the community gate, suddenly, a van stopped in front of her, the door opened with a "swish", and several burly men jumped out from inside. Without saying a word, they covered her mouth and nose with a towel soaked in ether.
Chen Xiaoru only felt a pain in the back of her neck, followed by a pungent smell rushing into her nose. She struggled desperately, digging her nails into the arm of one of the kidnappers, but she was still no match for her increasingly heavy eyelids. She eventually lost consciousness and was roughly thrown into the van.
The van braked suddenly, and the tires made a sharp scream as they rubbed against the ground. Then it rushed out like an arrow and disappeared in the crowd.
When Chen Xiaoru woke up again, she found herself tied to a tattered chair, her hands and feet tightly bound with rough hemp ropes, unable to move.
She opened her eyes wide in fear and looked around, finding herself in a dark, damp, dusty room. The air was filled with a musty smell, the walls were mottled and peeling, revealing the dark red bricks inside, and the glass on the windows was broken, and the cold wind rushed in, making a strange humming sound.
This seems to be a long-abandoned chemical factory. It is quiet all around, with only rats crawling around in the corners, adding a bit of horror to the atmosphere.
Chen Xiaoru struggled to stand up, but found the rope was too tight, causing her pain. She desperately tried to call for help, but found her mouth was blocked by a dirty piece of cloth, and she could only make a "wuwu" sound.
She bit the rag hard and almost vomited out the leftover food. Ugh! What a smell! She secretly swore that when she got out of this predicament, she would make these people pay the price!
Fear surged into Chen Xiaoru's heart like a tide, and her body began to tremble violently.
She didn't know why she was kidnapped here, who kidnapped her, or what was waiting for her.
She tried hard to recall, trying to find some clues, but her mind was in a mess and she couldn't remember anything.
"System, system, help!"
In her consciousness, Chen Xiaoru frantically called out to the long-lost system, her voice filled with tears, like a drowning person grasping at the last straw.
A burst of electronic sound suddenly rang in her mind, with a hint of ridicule and helplessness:
"Oh my god! I've only been away for a short time! How did you get yourself into this state?"
"Stop talking nonsense! Think of a way to get me out!"
Chen Xiaoru was so anxious that she was about to cry. She was in no mood to joke with the system.
At this moment, the sound of high heels hitting the ground came from far away, and Su Qing's distorted face appeared in Chen Xiaoru's sight.
She slowly squatted down and pinched Chen Xiaoru's chin with her slender fingers, so hard that it almost crushed her bones. Chen Xiaoru was forced to raise her head in pain and look into Su Qing's eyes full of resentment.
"I really don't know what Brother Tianche sees in you! He's even willing to go after the Su Group just for you!"
Su Qing spoke with gritted teeth, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth, filled with strong hatred.
Chen Xiaoru was tied up and her mouth was blocked, so she could only make "wuwu" sounds, her eyes full of fear and confusion.
Su Qing took out Chen Xiaoru's cell phone from her bag, found Chu Tianche's number, dialed it, and a cruel arc appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Meanwhile, Chu Tianche sat at his large desk, his fingertips moving rapidly across the pile of documents. His brows were furrowed, his eyes were sharp, and he was completely absorbed in his work.
Suddenly, a rapid phone ring tore through the silence of the office. Chu Tianche shifted his gaze from the documents, picked up the phone, and saw the words "Xiao Ru" flashing on the screen. His tense nerves relaxed, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
"Hey, Xiaoru, what's wrong?"
