Chapter 164 Falling into the Hands of Human Traffickers
Lu Junyan untied Chu Qingxue, and Chu Qingxue immediately threw herself into Lu Junyan's arms, crying:
"I thought I'd never see you again in this lifetime!"
"It's alright, it's all over now..."
Lu Junyan gently patted Chu Qingxue's back to comfort her.
"I'm sorry I'm late..."
It's not easy to find a place to exchange Bitcoin at this time. The United States is not like City A. Although Lu Junyan is not completely unfamiliar with the place, his influence is definitely not as great as it is in City A.
So he spent a lot of time converting 100 million into Bitcoin, and at the same time sent people to search for an old apartment with beige marble wallpaper within a half-hour drive of the Lington Hotel, centered around it.
As the saying goes, perseverance pays off, and he finally found the place where Qian Dazhi and Guan Chuqingxue were.
"It's not too late, not at all... I'm already very grateful that you came to save me..."
Chu Qingxue raised her tear-stained and swollen face, her eyes filled with gratitude and deep affection as she gazed at Lu Junyan.
"By the way, Junyan, where is Qian Dazhi? I'm afraid he might do something to you if you show up here like this..."
Chu Qingxue grabbed Lu Junyan's hand tightly.
Lu Junyan felt Chu Qingxue's hand trembling.
"Don't worry, I brought bodyguards. Qian Dazhi wouldn't dare to do anything to me."
"That's good...that's good..."
Chu Qingxue had just taken a step when her legs went weak, and Lu Junyan immediately picked her up in his arms.
Chu Qingxue leaned against Lu Junyan's chest, looking weak. Her long eyelashes, still wet with tears, were trembling, clearly indicating that she was still in shock.
Anyone who saw her like this would feel a strong sense of sympathy and pity for Chu Qingxue.
Jiang Ning should have already been taken aboard by Qian Dazhi, right?
Chu Qingxue thought to herself.
Once she gets to NM, Jiang Ning, a weak woman, will be at Qian Dazhi's mercy. She'll be helpless and unable to call for help, and will never be able to come back.
If Qian Dazhi hasn't gotten tired of her, that's fine. But once he does, Jiang Ning might be sold to a brothel or fall into the hands of human traffickers.
Just imagining Jiang Ning's tragic end made Chu Qingxue almost burst out laughing.
Jiang Ning, I told you not to steal my man!
Chu Qingxue hardened her heart.
The position of Lu Junyan's wife should have been hers from the start.
If it weren't for Jiang Ning, she wouldn't have had to go through so much trouble.
Jiang Ning brought this all on herself; she has no one to blame but herself.
"Junyan, I thought this time... I would lose you..."
Chu Qingxue closed her eyes and muttered pitifully to herself.
"No, it won't..."
"Then... will we be together forever?"
"……Um……"
Hearing Lu Junyan's promise, Chu Qingxue's injured face blossomed into a knowing smile.
"That's what you said to me back in the juvenile detention center..."
Lu Junyan twitched the fingers holding Chu Qingxue, remained silent for a moment, and then hummed in agreement again.
We will be together forever.
He did say that to Achu.
Lu Junyan carried Chu Qingxue back to the hotel and stayed by her bedside.
Before rushing in to save Chu Qingxue, he made some preparations, urgently contacting people from both the legitimate and criminal worlds, and also fearing that Qian Dazhi might have planted a bomb in the room.
As it turned out, Qian Dazhi was not as capable as he had imagined.
"Qian Dazhi still hasn't been found?"
Lu Junyan asked Xiao Zhang.
Xiao Zhang shook his head.
"Keep searching. We need to find them alive or dead."
"yes."
After Xiao Zhang left, Lu Junyan saw Chu Qingxue lying on the bed as if she were asleep.
"Junyan..."
He had just stood up when he heard Chu Qingxue's murmurs.
"Don't go... Junyan... don't... don't leave me... don't leave me alone..."
Chu Qingxue frowned, a layer of cold sweat seeping from her forehead. Lu Junyan knew that Chu Qingxue was having a nightmare.
A perfectly good trip abroad to attend a wedding turned into a kidnapping. Even after being rescued, it's difficult to regain a sense of security, both physically and mentally.
Lu Junyan sat down again and left quietly only after Chu Qingxue had fallen asleep.
He had two bodyguards stand guard outside Chu Qingxue's room.
The corridor was completely silent.
Lu Junyan's leather shoes stomped on the thick carpet.
There was no sound.
When Lu Junyan looked up and saw the room number 1237, he realized that he had inexplicably walked to his own door.
This guest room is also in Jiangning.
Lu Junyan swiped his room card to open the door, which was completely dark inside.
No one came back.
It's almost midnight now.
The room was dark, and the darkness reflected in Lu Junyan's eyes made them appear even darker.
Lu Junyan took out his phone and made a call.
The call was to Jiangning.
Based on the information Jiang Ning sent him earlier, and combined with Qian Dazhi's words, Jiang Ning must have left the banquet with an acquaintance, who was a man.
The busy signal rang several times in the receiver, so long that Lu Junyan thought his call would never go through.
At that moment, the call was connected.
"Hello?"
The voice coming from the receiver wasn't from Jiangning.
It belongs to a man.
Lu Junyan lowered his eyelids slightly, his pupils as black as the sea on a windless winter night, as unfathomable as the deep ocean.
"Ning Junzhe... Jiang Ning is with you?"
Ning Junzhe on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment.
He didn't expect that Lu Junyan would recognize his voice.
"yes."
He gave Lu Junyan a firm and unequivocal answer.
"Let Jiang Ning answer the phone."
Lu Junyan's voice was as calm and cold as ever, making it difficult to accurately judge his emotional fluctuations.
"She can't answer the phone."
Ning Junzhe's voice carried a hint of sarcasm.
Lu Junyan slightly raised his eyelids and heard Ning Junzhe continue:
"She's already asleep, in my bed."
Ning Junzhe's tone was full of provocation, but Lu Junyan chuckled softly:
"A married woman sleeping in the bed of her fiancé who's getting married tomorrow...that's pretty exciting."
After saying that, Lu Junyan hung up the phone.
His thumb remained on the phone screen until the screen cracked.
As night falls, the seawater laps against the rocks and sand.
The wind is cold, the water is cold, and the moonlight is cold too.
No. 17 Shachiu Road, Azure Bay.
During the day, it looks like a shimmering blue silk scarf.
This bay is private land, and a Mediterranean-style detached sea-view villa is like a dazzling diamond embellishment on a silk scarf.
However, at night, it looks like a cage at first glance.
Ning Junzhe stood by the window, the damp sea breeze blowing in, bringing with it a salty smell.
He was holding a cell phone in his hand.
The phone is from Jiangning.
Behind him was a very spacious bedroom.
Instead of a wall, he was facing a huge floor-to-ceiling glass window.
Through the clean glass, he could see Jiang Ning lying on the large bed in the bedroom.
Jiang Ning was still unconscious, covered with a blanket, but he had already taken off his soaking wet dress.
Ning Junzhe took it off himself.
