Chapter 479: Suddenly Empty
Yin Dong endured for three seconds, but the phone kept ringing. He gritted his teeth and took out the phone from his pocket. The call was from Kuang Ye.
Yin Dong said coldly into the phone: "I'll give you one minute."
Kuang Ye's tone was solemn, completely different from his usual nonchalant tone: "Brother Dong, Xue Qi was kidnapped and several of our brothers were injured."
Jiang Yuan saw Yin Dong's expression change instantly. He got off the bed from her, sat on the edge of the bed and asked, "When?"
Kuang Ye's voice was low, with a hint of annoyance in his tone: "Half an hour ago, the other party was holding a gun, and should have come directly to take my life. But I heard from the two brothers who were shot that Xue Qi told the other party that she could help Xue Guangkun kill you, so the other party didn't shoot her and took her away directly. This person should be Xue Guangkun's confidant, the one known as "Black Impermanence" in the underworld. I sent people to check all the surveillance cameras on the surrounding roads, but they haven't locked on to the target yet."
Jiang Yuan moved closer to Yin Dong and listened to everything Kuang Ye said.
Xue Qi was the only witness in the shooting five years ago. If she died, Xue Guangkun would not be convicted easily.
Yin Dong hung up the phone and said coldly while getting dressed: "I'll go find Xue Qi. Even if she's dead, it'll be fine as long as I can find her body. You go back to your mother and sleep peacefully. I'll get some more people to watch over you."
He seemed to be able to remain calm more in critical moments, but Jiang Yuan couldn't do that. The stone that had been pressing on her heart for the whole afternoon seemed to have just fallen down, and she subconsciously grabbed his arm.
The ominous premonition in her heart once again swept over her, but she was powerless to stop him. Xue Qi must be found, alive or dead. She was the key to the downfall of the Xue family.
Her throat felt like it was being scraped by a razor blade. "You must be careful. I'll be waiting for you here. If anything happens, you must call me. I won't sleep."
He put on his clothes, rubbed her head, and comforted her in a light tone, "Then wait for me to come back and continue celebrating?"
She managed to maintain her composure and nodded, "Well, I'll wait for you no matter how late it is."
He pushed her down onto the pillow, patted her head, and coaxed her in a low voice: "Close your eyes, lie down and wait."
Jiang Yuan closed her eyes obediently.
She heard the sound of the door closing in the living room, and her heart suddenly felt empty.
Jiang Yuan didn't know when she started to worry about gains and losses. It was probably from the recent period. When Yin Dong was not by her side, she couldn't help but imagine some thrilling scenes.
This feeling is especially strong tonight.
She couldn't stand it anymore, so she simply opened her eyes, got dressed, got out of bed, and returned to her home.
The lights in the living room were turned off. Her mother and Xu Hui had already gone to bed. She sat on the sofa in the living room for a while, going over Kuang Ye's words carefully in her mind again. At a certain moment, she suddenly felt a chill down her spine.
According to Xue Guangkun's usual ruthless style, he had to kill Xue Qi directly to solve the problem once and for all, but the "Black Impermanence" he sent actually spared Xue Qi's life because of Xue Qi's quick-witted words and took her away directly. No matter how you think about it, the logic of this matter is unreasonable.
Jiang Yuan could only think of one possibility, that Xue Guangkun wanted to use Xue Qi as bait, and his target was probably Yin Dong, because only Yin Dong could truly threaten Yin Zhengxian.
Jiang Yuan was so shocked by this guess that her whole body froze. She paused for a few seconds before picking up the phone tremblingly.
