"What child? I don't know what you're talking about!"
He Wenxiu's breathing became easier, and her face regained some color. She began to struggle again, "Let me go!"
Ji Fuling kept staring at the expression on her face and felt that she didn't seem to be lying, so she pushed her away.
He Wenxiu was thrown to the ground and, due to lack of oxygen, was too weak to get up for a while. She could only lie on the ground and gasp for breath.
Ji Fuling didn't look at her again, turned around and ran to the side of the road, eager to take a taxi back to see what was going on.
She had only run a few steps when someone suddenly grabbed her arm from behind.
"Fuling, where are you in such a hurry to go?"
Ji Fuling turned around and saw that it was Ye Yunhong who had grabbed her. She immediately slapped his hand away and said coldly, "Get away! Don't bother me!"
Seeing her treat him with the same disgust she showed him as a bedbug, Ye Yunhong's expression immediately darkened.
But seeing Ji Fuling in her stunning red dress, he forcibly suppressed his displeasure and, with a forced smile, stepped forward to stop her, "Where are you going? I can take you..."
"Can't you understand human language?"
Ji Fuling interrupted Ye Yunhong, looking at him coldly, "I said, don't bother me, don't force me to take action!"
“Fuling, what’s past is past, I don’t hold it against you anymore, so why are you being so temperamental and hostile towards me? Actually, we can start over…”
"Uh-"
Before Ye Yunhong could finish speaking, Ji Fuling stepped forward and delivered a powerful knee strike to his abdomen, causing him to groan in pain and stagger back several steps while clutching his stomach.
He stared at Ji Fuling in astonishment, his face filled with disbelief.
In his memory, Ji Fuling had always been a gentle and frail figure.
But Ji Fuling's movements were so swift and fluid that he didn't even have time to react before he was hit.
The Ji Fuling before my eyes is completely different from the one I saw five years ago!
"sister in law!"
Ji Fuling remained expressionless and was about to walk around Ye Yunhong when a shout suddenly came from behind her.
Immediately afterward, Gu Liao rushed over, slightly out of breath, and said, "Sister-in-law, why did you run out? I've been looking for you inside for ages..."
"Dr. Gu, you drove here, right?"
Ji Fuling didn't bother to correct Gu Liao's form of address. She interrupted him and said urgently, "Could you please take me there? I have urgent business to attend to and need to go back immediately."
Seeing her anxious expression, Gu Liao didn't ask any questions on the spot, but simply nodded and agreed, "Okay, come with me, my car is parked right next to me."
As he spoke, he took the lead and walked ahead to guide the way.
Ji Fuling followed closely behind.
Watching the two get into the car and leave, Ye Yunhong's face suddenly darkened.
If he remembered correctly, Gu Liao was one of Ye Nanqing's few close friends, and for the past few years he had always called Ye Nanqing "brother".
But just now, Gu Liao actually called Ji Fuling "sister-in-law"!
That damned Ye Nanqing, he always tries to take everything from me!
Knowing full well that Ji Fuling was his ex-fiancée, he still insisted on getting involved with her!
Just wait and see, the position of CEO of the Ye Group will be his sooner or later!
The same goes for Ji Fuling!
At this moment, Gu Liao was driving, and Ji Fuling was sitting in the back seat.
The car drove away from the Lansen Hotel and headed towards the small villa.
"Dr. Gu, could you drive a little faster? I want to get back as soon as possible."
Ji Fuling clasped her hands together nervously, her expression extremely tense, and couldn't help but urge him on.
The thought of Tian Tian possibly being in danger made her feel extremely uneasy, anxious and panicked.
Upon hearing this, Gu Liao stepped on the gas to increase the car's speed, while glancing at the rearview mirror.
Seeing that Ji Fuling's eyes were red and her expression was full of anxiety, he asked, "What happened?"
"Aunt Ding called and said that Tian Tian is missing. She doesn't know what happened. I'm afraid she's been kidnapped by bad people..."
Ji Fuling tilted her head slightly, forcibly suppressing the mist welling up in her eyes, but her trembling voice betrayed her panicked state.
Upon hearing this, Gu Liao's brows furrowed instantly, and his expression changed.
No wonder she was so flustered and anxious; it turns out that the cute little girl has disappeared.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry too much. Tian Tian is a very clever girl. She'll definitely be fine."
Knowing that saying these things at this point would be useless, Gu Liao still offered a word of comfort.
Immediately, he freed one hand, took out his phone, and quickly sent a message.
Sweetie is missing, and my sister-in-law is very worried.
When Ye Nanqing received the message, he was in a private room at the five-star hotel in Licheng.
Upon seeing the message, his brow furrowed and his jawline tightened.
Several business partners became somewhat nervous when they saw his sudden change in expression.
One of them, forcing a smile, asked, "...Mr. Ye, are you not satisfied with this project proposal?"
Ye Nanqing suddenly stood up, phone in hand, his thin lips pursed, uttering a cold, emotionless voice, "Don't come to me with this kind of garbage proposal again."
After saying that, he walked away without looking back, his tall figure exuding a cold aura.
Chen Heng was stunned for a moment, then quickly took off after him.
The partners looked at each other, their faces blank, wondering how they had offended this Master Ye.
It's true what they say, the rumors are true. Master Ye is indeed unpredictable and has an unpredictable temperament!
After leaving the private room, Ye Nanqing sent a message to Gu Liao.
After replying, he solemnly instructed Chen Heng, who was beside him, "Arrange a plane back to Yuncheng immediately, and leave now."
Chen Heng hesitated for a moment, then said, "Mr. Ye, there's another dinner later. The business partner is from overseas..."
"No matter who it is, push them away!"
Ye Nanqing's tone was cold and brooked no argument.
Chen Heng felt a chill run down his spine and dared not say another word. He quickly nodded in agreement, "Yes, Mr. Ye, I understand. I will arrange it immediately!"
At this moment, Gu Liao was flooring the gas pedal, heading straight for the small villa.
His phone rang, and he saw that it was a message from Ye Nanqing. He opened it casually.
【Keep an eye on her, don't let anything happen to her. I'll be there soon.】
Upon seeing this sentence, Gu Liao became even more certain—
Their Third Master Ye has really gone headfirst into this mess!
Soon, the car stopped in front of the small villa.
Before the car had even come to a complete stop, Ji Fuling pushed open the door, got out, and quickly ran into the house.
Upon seeing Aunt Ding, she rushed forward and asked anxiously, "Aunt Ding, what happened? Where is Tian Tian?"
Aunt Ding lowered her head, wiping away her tears, choking back sobs and unable to speak.
Upon seeing this, Ji Ziming quickly ran over. Her usually bright and cheerful face was now filled with self-reproach and guilt, and her voice was weak, "Mommy, I'm sorry, it's all our fault."
"Just now, Tian Tian suddenly said she wanted to fly a kite, so we went to play with her in the yard. But the kite got caught in a tree, so Uncle Yiming went to get a ladder. We were waiting under the tree, but when we turned around, Tian Tian was gone."
"Grandma Ding was preparing food in the kitchen at the time, so she didn't know what happened..."
Ji Fuling's face grew paler and paler as she listened, barely managing to hold back her tears.
Zuo Yiming stood to the side with his head down, his face full of remorse. "Third Miss, I'm sorry, it's my fault. I was careless and didn't keep an eye on Tiantian."
"I've sent out all our people in Yuncheng to search; we should have news soon..."
Ji Zihan was sitting on the sofa with his laptop in his arms, staring intently at the screen with a serious expression, his hands flying across the keyboard.
Ji Fuling saw it and suddenly remembered that the smartwatches worn by the three children had GPS positioning function.
Instinctively, she thought Hanbao was trying to find Tiantian's location, and immediately asked, "Zihan, have you found Tiantian's location?"
