Upon hearing Gu Jingkun's words, Wen Zhengnan was slightly taken aback. He hadn't expected that Gu Jingkun would actually come looking for Wen Lu, but Wen Lu had already been kicked out by him.
"Mr. Gu, Wen Lu isn't home. What can I do for you? If it's convenient for you, please let me know and I'll pass on your message!"
Wen Zhengnan looked at Gu Jingkun with a respectful expression. He was still thinking about continuing to cooperate with G Group and did not want to offend Gu Jingkun.
"You'll pass on the message? There's no need, is there? I want to see her right now. Where could she be so early in the morning? Is she deliberately hiding from me?"
Gu Jingkun looked upstairs, his phoenix eyes slightly narrowed, a smile playing on his lips.
"President Gu... Wen Lu... she... she really went out very early this morning, and I don't know what she went to do."
Wen Zhengnan looked at Gu Jingkun guiltily, not daring to say that he had already kicked Wen Lu out.
He couldn't figure out Gu Jingkun's attitude towards Wen Lu at all, nor could he understand why he had come directly to his home.
Looking at Wen Zhengnan's nervous expression, Gu Jingkun was certain that Wen Zhengnan was lying; he was testing Wen Zhengnan's intelligence.
"Mr. Wen, I advise you not to lie to me. Call Wen Lu right now and tell her to come back immediately. If she doesn't return within an hour, the Wen family will be in big trouble!"
Gu Jingkun smiled slightly at Wen Zhengnan. If Wen Zhengnan had said this before, he might have believed him and perhaps wouldn't have made things so difficult for him.
However, ever since he learned that Wen Zhengnan intended to kill Wen Lu, he became worried. He came here today to take Wen Lu away; he couldn't let Wen Lu continue living in such a dangerous place.
Hearing Gu Jingkun's words, Wen Zhengnan froze on the spot. Despite the cold winter weather, he felt himself starting to sweat.
"Mr. Gu, this..."
"What's wrong? Is it so difficult for Mr. Wen to call Miss Wen back? Or has something happened to Miss Wen?"
Thinking of what Liang Ze had told him yesterday, his heart tightened involuntarily. Could it be that Wen Lu had gotten into trouble just because he was only a night late?
"No, Mr. Gu, you've misunderstood. Last night, Wen Lu and Su Yu had a fight, and Wen Lu accidentally dropped Su Yu down the stairs. She got angry and ran away from home and hasn't come back yet."
When Wen Zhengnan saw that Gu Jingkun insisted on bringing Wen Lu back, he had no choice but to reluctantly tell some of the truth about the matter, but it wasn't entirely true, and he shifted the main responsibility onto Wen Lu.
At this moment, Gu Jingkun did not believe a single word Wen Zhengnan said. He looked at Wen Zhengnan, his dangerous eyes narrowing slightly.
"Then I'll give you two hours. You can find Wen Lu or pinpoint her location and I'll come pick her up. Either way, I need to see her today."
After saying that, Gu Jingkun strode towards the Wen family's villa. He wanted to see Wen Zhengnan go to find Wen Lu with his own eyes, and he wouldn't be at ease until Wen Lu returned safely.
As Wen Zhengnan watched Gu Jingkun's retreating figure, he unconsciously raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and spoke to the butler following behind him.
"Quickly, find Wen Lu's whereabouts and bring her back. If she refuses to come back, then locate her and we'll go get her ourselves!"
Thinking of Gu Jingkun's threat to him using the Wen family name, Wen Zhengnan couldn't help but shudder. He knew that Gu Jingkun was a ruthless character, and he would always keep his word.
Seeing Wen Zhengnan's nervous expression, the butler hesitated before asking, "Sir, what about Miss's household registration..."
"What do you mean by household registration? The most important thing now is to find Wen Lu. If we can't find Wen Lu, the Wen family will be gone."
After saying that, Wen Zhengnan quickly walked towards the villa. He dared not neglect Gu Jingkun. He really didn't know why this plague god insisted on looking for Wen Lu. What was his relationship with Wen Lu?
Wen Zhengnan walked into the living room and saw Gu Jingkun sitting on the sofa, holding a cell phone and making a call to someone.
"Mr. Gu, when did you meet Wen Lu? And what is your relationship with Wen Lu? Why are you so determined to find her? She has been staying at home and has never heard of Wen Lu knowing you."
Wen Zhengnan couldn't understand it. He knew Wen Lu was beautiful, but... Wen Lu was only an eighteen-year-old girl. How could she possibly catch Gu Jingkun's eye?
"Is it any of your business to inquire about my affairs? I only gave you two hours, and ten minutes have already passed. If Wen Lu cannot be found within two hours, what will happen to the Wen Group is not something I can decide."
After saying that, Gu Jingkun didn't even glance at Wen Zhengnan, took the tablet Jiang Ze handed him, and began processing the files in his email.
Wen Zhengnan looked at Gu Jingkun, sweat unconsciously sliding down his cheeks. He had been relieved yesterday that he had gotten rid of Wen Lu, this troublesome person.
He learned today that Wen Lu was not there, and how troublesome the situation was, so he started taking out his phone to call Wen Lu.
However, Wen Lu's phone was switched off.
When Wen Zhengnan heard that Wen Lu's phone was switched off, he felt utterly hopeless. He really didn't know where to find Wen Lu...
The housekeeper sat in his room, dialing Wen Lu's number again and again, but each time the phone was switched off.
He immediately stood up and instructed his bodyguards to investigate the surveillance footage along the way in order to find Wen Lu's whereabouts.
Two hours later, there was still no news of Wen Lu's whereabouts. Instead, Liang Ze returned with a document.
Liang Ze handed the documents to Gu Jingkun, his expression somewhat grave.
"Master, Miss Wen left the Wen family last night and got into a black Maybach. We can't find any information about that Maybach."
After Liang Ze finished speaking, Wen Zhengnan unconsciously frowned. How could he not know that Wen Lu had a friend who drove a Maybach? If he had known that Wen Lu had such a friend, he certainly wouldn't have been in such a hurry to sever ties with Wen Lu.
"Impossible! How could Wen Lu possibly know those kinds of people? She...she's in poor health and stays home to recuperate every day. She simply doesn't have time to come into contact with those kinds of people!"
Wen Zhengnan couldn't accept that Wen Lu had such friends. He felt that it was already hard for him to accept that Wen Lu knew Gu Jingkun, and if Wen Lu also knew someone of that status, his loss would be too great. How could it have turned out like this?
"Mr. Wen, you're only now realizing your mistake? Isn't it too late? I always keep my word. Just wait and see the surprise I have for you."
After saying that, Gu Jingkun stood up from the sofa. He was going to investigate Wen Lu's whereabouts himself. Wen Lu was the prey he had his eye on, how could he let someone else take her away?
After Gu Jingkun left, Wen Zhengnan slumped onto the sofa. He couldn't understand how things had turned out this way, and he couldn't accept that Wen Lu actually had a force he didn't know about.
