I was so anxious that I couldn't think of anything else. I said hurriedly, "Something really happened. My grandma is missing."
"Don't worry, I'll go look for it with you."
"Aren't you here to do something? Go and do your thing first..."
"It's okay. Grandma's disappearance is a big deal. Let's not waste time. Let's go!"
Lu Shiyan patted my shoulder and went into the sanatorium with me.
Professor Qin and his assistant were the only ones in the ward. Upon seeing me, Professor Qin frowned, "Miss Ruan, what on earth is going on? Madam Shen is at the critical moment of her recovery. Why is she gone now?"
"Professor Qin, I'm sorry, I just received the news."
I looked around the ward and saw no signs of mess, which made me feel even more panicked.
Before making any guesses, he confirmed the situation with Professor Qin, "Professor, given my grandmother's current recovery, is it possible that she has lost her mind again, and that's why she got lost?"
"impossible."
Professor Qin gave a firm answer, very confident, "The old lady has almost recovered. After the two days of treatment, she can be discharged from the hospital. Even if she hasn't had time to complete these two treatments, the old lady won't fall ill again so soon. After all, her nervous system has almost recovered."
"In other words, my grandma is absolutely sane?"
Professor Qin nodded, "Yes, that's the case at the moment."
I squeezed my palms.
There were no signs of disorder in the ward, and it was said that grandma was most likely taken away without anyone noticing while she was unconscious.
Lu Shiyan frowned, "Could it be Shen Xingyu and the others who did it?"
"It's not impossible."
I took out my cell phone and was about to call the police when a stranger called me.
Normally, I would have thought it was a harassing call and hung up, but in this moment, I had to answer, "Hello."
"Should I call you Miss Ruan, Miss Shen, or... Miss Jiang?"
On the other end, a man's eerie voice came through the receiver.
Just a few words were enough to show that he had checked me thoroughly, but I didn't even know the other party's basic information!
I was immediately terrified. "Who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am."
He evaded the question, "Mrs. Shen, you are in my hands. This is very important to you."
"Who the hell are you?!"
I took a deep breath, suppressed my panic, forced myself to calmly grasp the key points, and asked directly, "What is your purpose?"
"Talking to smart people is easy."
He smiled sinisterly, "I'll send the address to your phone. Don't call the police. Come alone."
I frowned, "Only me?"
Hearing this, Lu Shiyan's expression was stern. He immediately took the phone away and said to the other party, "I don't care who you are, but I can't agree to let her go alone. Either I go with her, or we call the police."
“Senior…”
I was worried about angering the other party, but I saw Lu Shiyan shook his head at me and continued to talk to the other party, "Since you are doing this, it should not be to kill her. I will go with you, not for anything else, just to make sure she is safe."
"Hmm!"
The other party hesitated for a moment, agreed immediately, and said, "I will only give you half an hour, otherwise, I can't guarantee the safety of Madam Shen!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
I glanced at the address sent by the other party nervously, grabbed my phone and ran to the parking lot.
It is an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city.
It would take about half an hour to get there from the sanatorium, no matter how fast you go, so there is no time to waste.
When I opened the driver's door, Lu Shiyan stopped me and raised his chin towards me, "You go to the passenger seat, I'll drive."
"Tsu, thank you, senior."
I looked at him gratefully and didn't refuse.
I was so concerned about my grandma's safety that I was distracted while driving, which was too dangerous.
On the way to the abandoned factory, I first sent a message to Jiang Lai, telling her that I couldn't make it and let her make her own decision.
He called Zhou Fang again.
However, as soon as the phone rang, a mechanical female voice came, "Sorry, the number you dialed is currently unavailable. Please call again later..."
For some reason, I became even more nervous. I was even afraid that something might have happened to Zhou Fang.
Lu Shiyan controlled the steering wheel with both hands and glanced at me gently. "Called Zhou Fang, didn't he answer?"
"Um……"
I nodded absentmindedly.
Lu Shiyan understood, "Don't worry, try calling again."
"Um."
I called again.
Still no one answered.
Seeing that I looked unhappy, Lu Shiyan consoled me, "The Zhou patent infringement incident has caused a lot of uproar. He's probably busy, so it's normal that he didn't hear about it."
The more I say this, the more uneasy I feel.
But there was nothing more I could do at the moment, so I could only go to the outskirts of the city to see who was on the phone.
On second thought, I called the Shen family.
Shen Xingyu answered the call. "Hello, who is this?"
"You sent people to kidnap grandma?"
Apart from them, I can't think of anyone else for the time being.
Shen Xingyu quickly recognized my voice and smiled, "Ruan Nanzhi, you have to provide evidence when you speak."
"You have a clear conscience!"
I took a deep breath and said coldly, "If this is for the Shen family's property, if anything happens to grandma, you won't get a penny!"
After that, I hung up the phone.
I was roughly certain in my heart that this matter was closely related to the Shen family.
…
When Shen Xingyu heard the sound of the call being hung up in the receiver, anger flashed across her face, and then she became worried and looked at Su Wanyu who was sitting next to her.
"Mom, are you really sure nothing will go wrong this time?"
"Don't worry."
Su Wanyu raised her chin, her eyes filled with the certainty of victory, "The Shen family's things will only be yours. No one else can even think about it."
Shen Xingyu breathed a sigh of relief and asked curiously, "Who did you find this time? You actually kidnapped that old woman from the sanatorium without anyone noticing! Why didn't you use this trick earlier?"
If she had used it earlier, she would have successfully become the heir of the Shen family, and she wouldn't have been so overshadowed by Ruan Nanzhi at the dinner last night.
She really couldn't bear to see that bitch being so smug!
She was even adopted as Jiang Yunshu's goddaughter. Her ancestors were so proud of her!
Su Wanyu looked at her and smiled, "Because he just returned home last night."
"Foreign forces?"
"You could say that."
Su Wanyu patted her head lovingly and said, "Mom will take you to see him some other day."
"Why should I see him?"
Shen Xingyu looked puzzled. "He's a gangster. He just did it for money."
After all, she is the daughter of the Shen family. Why would she have any contact with the gang?
Su Wanyu saw the disdain on her face and was stunned for a moment. She said carefully, "We may have to rely on him for the Shen family's affairs in the future. It won't hurt to meet him."
"...right then."
Shen Xingyu agreed impatiently, then said viciously, "Are you really sure about this matter? Zhou Fang will definitely take action as soon as he finds out."
"This time, he didn't have time to intervene!"
