That was his guess too; otherwise, it wouldn't explain why Xiaoxue chose this time to tell them about it.
Jane nodded.
He then handed a survey report that the group had just received before their arrival to Gong Beize, saying, "Take a look at this again."
When it was their turn to look, they were immediately enraged.
Looking at the investigation report, Gong Nanting wished he could tear it up.
"I never expected that she had already..." targeted their Gong family so early on.
Gong Beize frowned and said in a deep voice, "The most urgent thing is to find Yuanyuan. We can settle these scores with her later!"
The group nodded in agreement.
Jian Yixue thought for a moment, then suddenly said, "Dad, give me your phone, I want to see the number that sent the message."
Gong Beize nodded and handed the phone to Jian Yixue.
Jian Yixue took the phone and looked at it, then said, "Dad, I suggest we call him first, otherwise it will arouse his suspicion. After all, no one would remain inactive after receiving news of a missing relative. Also, I want to confirm if it's him."
Upon hearing this, Gong Beize pondered for a moment and said, "Okay."
...
The Gong family.
"Old Madam Gong" sat on the bed, holding her phone and deep in thought.
Thinking back to the time Gong Yuanyuan was taken away, and the fact that Wang Gao told her he had sent a message to Gong Beize, but Gong Beize hadn't called to ask about her at all tonight, and the Gong family hadn't made any move, all of this made her feel uneasy.
In the end, she was still a little worried, so she made a phone call.
The call was answered quickly.
"What's wrong, Shuxiu? Cough cough cough~~~"
In an abandoned basement, Wang Gao sat at an old table, wiping his mouth with a tissue. In front of him was a bowl of steaming instant noodles.
Perhaps because he was in such a hurry to answer the phone, he accidentally coughed a few times.
"Old Madam Gong" didn't seem concerned, but thinking of her own worries, she couldn't help but ask, "Wang Gao, are you absolutely sure everything is foolproof?"
Wang Gao said, "Yes. In any case, things have come to this point, and there is absolutely no turning back."
Don't worry, I'll make sure they never leave alive!
Shuxiu, you just need to do your job as the matriarch of the Gong family well, and leave everything else to me.
Once all this is sorted out, is there anyone who can stop us from being together?
Upon hearing this, "Old Madam Gong" suddenly showed a hint of disdain in her eyes, but she did not reveal it.
She still needs Wang Gao now, so of course she won't say anything.
What about romantic love? Ever since that person gave up on her and chose her, a woman of equal social standing, she no longer cared about love.
"Madam Gong" composed herself and said gently, "Yes, I'll wait for your good news."
After hanging up the phone, the old lady Gong's eyes showed no trace of her previous expression; only cold indifference remained.
On the other hand, Wang Gao clearly didn't know these things.
After hanging up the phone, he quickly ate a large mouthful of the already soggy instant noodles.
Just as I was about to get up and do something, a phone call broke the silence of the night.
Wang Gao stopped and picked up the spare phone on the table. When he saw the number, a smug smile suddenly appeared on his lips.
He then picked up the voice changer from the side, put it on, and pressed the answer button.
"Mr. Gong." Wang Gao's voice, transmitted through the voice changer, had a slightly strange quality.
Upon hearing the sound, Gong Beize immediately looked towards Gong Nanting.
Gong Nanting was immediately stumped upon hearing this and shook his head.
Gong Beize then turned his gaze to Jian Yixue.
They made the call to confirm if the other person was Wang Gao, but it was obvious that the other person was using a voice changer, and they couldn't tell at first glance.
Jian Yixue received the gaze and nodded.
She knew it was Wang Gao as soon as she heard it; even if the voice had changed, a person's voice cannot be changed.
Suddenly, Gong Beize's face darkened.
He then asked, "Did you kidnap Yuanyuan?"
"It's me."
"What is your purpose? Is it just to see me? There's no need for that. If you want to see me, you can do so anytime," Gong Beize said in a deep voice.
Wang Gao sneered and said, "Mr. Gong, there's no need to try to trick me. I have my reasons for doing this, so just do as I say."
Gong Beize paused, pondered for a moment, and said, "In that case, I need to check if my sister is safe. Otherwise, how can I believe what you're saying?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Gao thought for a moment and said, "Okay. Wait a moment, I'll video call you."
At the hospital.
After hanging up the phone, Jian Yixue picked up her laptop, opened it, and after a few clicks, looked at Gong Beize and said...
"Dad, I'm all set up here. I'm just waiting for his call so I can quickly locate him."
Gong Beize watched Jian Yixue operate the computer smoothly, his eyes filled with shock. He never expected his daughter's computer skills to be so outstanding.
Although I had heard Gong Nanting tell me how Jian Yixue helped repair the surveillance cameras, it was nothing compared to the shock of seeing it with my own eyes now.
Seeing that Gong Beize didn't speak, Jian Yixue called out again, "Dad?"
Gong Beize snapped out of his daze and nodded, saying, "Okay."
Dongfang Tinglan was also greatly surprised.
I never imagined my daughter would be so outstanding. The more I think about her, the more I feel indebted to her, mixed with heartache.
Although Gong Nanting had seen Jian Yixue's skills before, he was impressed every time he saw them, and he believed Jian Yixue's words one hundred percent.
Only Ye Mohan, who was standing next to Jian Yixue and already knew her secret, remained expressionless, with a hint of pride in his eyes.
It seems he's saying this is his wife, isn't that amazing?
...
After hanging up the phone, Wang Gao picked up the mask, put it on, and then went to the room where Gong Yuanyuan was being held.
Having been in darkness for so long, Gong Yuanyuan had lost track of time, how long she had been held captive, and whether her brother and the others had noticed her disappearance.
Now that she's completely tied up, she has no way to save herself.
Just as she was wondering what to do, she suddenly heard a noise coming from the doorway.
Shortly after, the door was pushed open from the outside.
Then she heard footsteps approaching her. She used the sound to locate the source and looked towards the doorway.
Suddenly, the dark room was illuminated.
Gong Yuanyuan subconsciously closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she was startled by the masked man who suddenly appeared in front of her.
"Ah..." Gong Yuanyuan suddenly stepped back, only managing to avoid falling to the ground because she was tied to the chair.
Then, looking at the person in front of him, he asked with some fear, "Who are you? What do you want?"
Being kidnapped alone, and then suddenly encountering a masked man, even someone as battle-hardened as her would be terrified.
Although what's in front of her could very well be... she can't expose him now, and she can't let him realize that she's already recognized him, otherwise she'll only be in greater danger.
