Chapter 470: A Narrow Escape
Knowing that he was talking about the previous plagiarism incident, Xiao Muzhen smiled and said, "I don't want to bother you with such a small matter. Besides, I will definitely come to you when I really need your help. Didn't I ask you to help check that overseas account before?"
Speaking of this, Huo Yunting's eyes flashed with coldness and guilt. "I couldn't help you with that account. We still haven't figured out who owns it, and it's been cancelled."
Xiao Muzhen raised an eyebrow, a smile playing on the corner of his mouth. "It's not like we found nothing. At least it proves that the person behind this already knows that we are investigating him, and he will be more restrained in his actions in the future."
"Well, take your time. We've been disturbing Mr. Fei for a long time here. Let's go back."
Grandpa Wang on the side said quickly: "It's okay, Miss Zhen, Mr. Huo, you can stay here for dinner. The young master and his men are busy on weekdays, and few people come to chat with the old man or have dinner with him."
Xiao Muzhen turned around and glanced at Huo Yunting. "I can have dinner here with Grandpa Fei tonight. If you have something to do tonight, you can leave first."
Huo Yunting nodded. "I do have something to take care of right now. I'll pick you up after you finish dinner."
Xiao Muzhen waved her hand and said, "It's okay. I can take a taxi back by myself."
"Okay, then give me a call before you go home after dinner, and I'll come pick you up when I'm free."
"Um."
Xiao Muzhen accompanied Mr. Fei for dinner and stayed for a while. It was already past 9 o'clock in the evening.
She took out her cell phone and called Huo Yunting, but after calling several times, the call was not connected.
Thinking that he should still be busy, Xiao Muzhen put down his phone, stood up and looked at Mr. Fei.
"Grandpa Fei, it's getting late today. I'll go back first and come see you another day."
Mr. Fei nodded, looked at Grandpa Wang and said, "Arrange a driver to take Miss Zhen back."
Xiao Muzhen quickly shook his head and said, "It's okay. I can go back by myself. I can just take a taxi."
"Anyway, the driver at home is free now. I'm worried about you taking a taxi back. Let the driver take you back."
Under Mr. Fei's insistence, Xiao Muzhen had no choice but to agree.
The villa where Mr. Fei lives is outside the city. On the way back, there is a section of road that is sparsely populated. There is no one on the road except Xiao Muzhen's car.
Suddenly, there was a puff sound outside the car, and then the car stopped abruptly.
Xiao Muzhen's body leaned forward suddenly. If she hadn't been wearing a seat belt, her head would have hit the chair in front of her hard.
"Uncle Chen, what's wrong?"
"The tire is flat. I'll go down and take a look. Miss Xiao, please wait in the car for a while."
After Uncle Chen got out of the car, he walked to the front to check the tire. He found that it was indeed a flat tire and said, "Miss Xiao, I'll change the tire. It should only take about ten minutes."
After she finished speaking, she stood up and was about to walk towards the trunk, when her body suddenly stiffened and she fell straight down.
Xiao Muzhen's face changed. Just as he was about to get out of the car, a dozen people wearing masks surrounded the car.
Two of them directly lifted up Uncle Chen and put a dagger on her neck.
"Xiao Muzhen, come down by yourself, or I will kill her!"
A hint of coldness flashed in Xiao Muzhen's eyes. These people knew her name and were obviously coming for her.
She pushed open the car door and got out. As soon as she stood firm, two people came towards her with a rope.
"Hand over your phone! If you dare to do anything, you'll be waiting to collect this man's corpse!"
As soon as she handed her phone over, one of the men slammed her phone to the ground and stomped on it twice.
The phone screen cracked instantly and soon went black.
Then the two men tied her up and threw her and Uncle Chen into a truck and locked them up. There were also a dozen people following them, staring at them hungrily.
Xiao Muzhen looked calm, without any panic or fear of being kidnapped.
"Who asked you to kidnap me?"
"You'll know when you get there."
Xiao Muzhen fell silent. She was not worried about herself, but was a little worried about Uncle Chen.
After all, Uncle Chen is already over fifty years old. If something happens, he might be scared.
It seems that she has to find a way to let Uncle Chen escape first, while she stays to see who the person who kidnapped her is.
An hour later, the car finally stopped.
The truck door was opened, and Xiao Muzhen and Uncle Chen were thrown out directly.
Because he fell, or perhaps because the effect of the medicine had worn off, Uncle Chen woke up slowly.
Seeing that both herself and Xiao Muzhen were tied up, she was immediately shocked.
"Miss Xiao, this..."
Xiao Muzhen said calmly: "We were kidnapped."
Uncle Chen: “…”
"Let's see what's going on first. I'll find a way to let you escape first." Xiao Muzhen lowered his voice and said this quickly beside Uncle Chen, then walked forward calmly.
Uncle Chen's face changed. Even though she was afraid, she couldn't let Xiao Muzhen face the danger alone, otherwise Mr. Fei would be the first one not to let her go.
The two were taken into an abandoned factory. When Xiao Muzhen saw the people waiting there, there was no surprise in his eyes.
"It's you."
Ding Yue sneered, stood up and walked proudly in front of Xiao Muzhen, "It's me, so what? Xiao Muzhen, you didn't expect that one day you would fall into my hands, did you?!"
She used all the money Yan Nan gave her to hire these people to kidnap Xiao Muzhen. Xiao Muzhen ruined her life, and she wanted this bitch dead!
Xiao Muzhen looked calm, "Ding Yue, if you stop now, it's not too late."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped by Ding Yue.
Her eyes were bloodshot and filled with deep hatred.
"Xiao Muzhen, from the moment you called the police, my life has been completely ruined by you!"
Seeing a slap mark appear on her fair face, Ding Yue's eyes were full of satisfaction, and he continued: "Anyway, I have already tied you up and have no plans for the future. But even if I die, I will take you with me!"
Looking at the madness on Ding Yue's face, Xiao Muzhen felt sorry for her.
Even if she couldn't be a designer, she could do something else, and if she hadn't done those things to herself in the first place, she wouldn't have ruined her career.
"If you let us go now, I will pretend nothing happened. Otherwise, you will end up in jail."
"Jail?"
Ding Yue laughed heartily, his eyes full of mockery. "I don't even plan to live anymore, do you think I still care about going to jail?!"
"Don't you even care about your family?"
Hearing this, Ding Yue's expression suddenly became crazy, and she raised her voice and said, "Shut up! You are not worthy of mentioning my family. If it weren't for you, they wouldn't have abandoned me!"
