Chapter 478 Closer than you and me used to be?
Lu Qiansheng didn't hang up the phone the whole way, and the conversations of the people on his end could be heard on the other end.
Xu Qinxin was absolutely furious!
"Chairman Lu, our Huo family hasn't offended your Lu family, has it?" Xu Qinxin said loudly. "Don't tell me Niannian is a member of your Lu family. She divorced Lu Yanzhi a long time ago, and it was Lu Yanzhi who wronged Niannian first!"
"Niannian is a free person!"
"Today is Niannian's wedding to Yanmo, what is the meaning of your Lu family kidnapping her!"
Xu Qinxin was practically yelling.
She had already seen the surveillance footage. Shi Nian didn't want to leave, but Lu Yanzhi covered her mouth to prevent her from calling for help.
They just checked the door to the dressing room; there were nail marks on it, probably left by Shi Nian to keep a button.
This is the use of violence, a forced abduction!
Huo Yanmo's anger surged even higher. He had mobilized all available resources to check the surveillance footage and find out where Lu Yanzhi had taken Shi Nian!
He still remembered the last time...
Last time, Lu Yanzhi tried to force himself on Shi Nian, and Shi Nian almost went crazy.
What is Lu Yanzhi going to do to Shi Nian this time?
"Niannian, wait for me..."
Huo Yanmo picked up the walkie-talkie: "We'll search every inch of City A to find them!"
"Yes!" came the unanimous reply from the other side.
Everyone got moving.
All the people who had been patrolling outside the venue went to search, and the scene quickly descended into chaos.
Then, the entire city of A descended into chaos.
At first, no one knew what had happened, but they soon found out.
Shi Nian has been kidnapped by Lu Yanzhi, and the Huo family is looking for her.
It's not just the Huo family.
The auditorium was in an uproar; everyone knew that Shi Nian was missing.
They sent people to help from everyone they could: the Fu family, the Qin family, the Lin family, the Li family…
People and vehicles on the ground, countless drones and helicopters flying in the sky—it was all chaos.
People everywhere are looking for Shi Nian!
The police were also alerted and, after learning what had happened, immediately set up roadblocks and checked surveillance footage.
"What happened?"
"How did Lu Yanzhi kidnap people?"
"I don't know. I heard that Huo Yanmo strengthened the security system more than tenfold for this wedding and added countless people. I don't know how Lu Yanzhi managed to sneak in."
"Was there a mole? Did someone bring him in?"
"Very likely..."
...
The commotion was so great that almost the entire city was searched.
Even the Lu family's Bright Moon Manor opened its gates to let people in to search.
But they couldn't find it.
The person has been taken somewhere.
About half an hour later, Huo Yanmo received the latest news.
“They’ve left the city.” It was Li Xinyi’s voice. “There are surveillance cameras on the bridge across the river that captured Lu Yanzhi’s car.”
"Which direction did it go?" Huo Yanmo asked, his hands gripping the steering wheel, veins bulging.
“Wait, another one?” Li Xinyi said. “Huo Yanmo, wait a minute. Several cars have left the city in different directions. It will take some time to determine which car has Lu Yanzhi and Shi Nian in it.”
"Bang!"
Huo Yanmo slammed his fist on the steering wheel, accidentally hitting the car horn and making a loud honking sound.
"beep--"
Huo Yanmo picked up his phone again and contacted countless people, chasing after them in every direction they went out of the city.
I must win her over!
A tear rolled down his cheek.
He hated this feeling of incompetence.
Unable to protect the one you want to love.
It's like going back to my vulnerable self.
"Niannian, where are you..."
...
On the other side.
Shi Nian's hands were handcuffed behind her back and tied to the back seat of Lu Yanzhi's car.
Her mouth was also covered with tape, so she couldn't make a sound at all.
She kicked the door hard with her legs, but it had no effect.
"Waaah!"
She tried to make a sound, but Lu Yanzhi was only focused on driving and it was no use.
Mo Mo must be very anxious, as must all the friends present, Huan Huan, Fu Jin Yan, Lin Yu Chen...
And Sisi.
Will Sisi be scared?
Thinking of this, Shi Nian struggled again and kicked the back of the seat in front of her hard.
Lu Yanzhi finally glanced at her in the rearview mirror.
Their eyes met in the rearview mirror.
Lu Yanzhi's eyes were bloodshot. He said, "A'Nian, don't blame me. I can't just watch you marry him."
"Waaah!"
Shi Nian kicked him again.
This time, Lu Yanzhi ignored her.
Shi Nian accidentally pulled on her bound arm because of this force.
A tearing pain shot through her, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Through her teary eyes, she saw the car driving further and further into the remote areas, heading into the mountains.
There are no surveillance cameras in this area, so it will be even harder to find her later.
Lu Yanzhi glanced at Shi Nian in the rearview mirror; the events of more than half an hour ago were still vivid in his mind.
"It looks great."
After he said that, Shi Nian turned around, and the smile on her face slowly disappeared.
"What are you doing here?" she asked.
“I’ve come to see you,” he said.
"Now that you've seen it, you can leave." She turned away. "I don't want you to stay for the wedding banquet."
"A-Nian, do you have to be so heartless?" He looked up at her and said sadly, "We were very happy when we were together."
"You're the one who's happy." She turned around, her eyes slightly red. "I'm not happy."
His words were cut off, leaving him speechless.
But she seemed to have started talking non-stop.
I'm unhappy when you ignore me.
"I'm unhappy seeing you with other women."
"Day after day, waiting for you to come home in this empty house is not a happy thing!"
"I'm even more unhappy now that I've lost my child!"
Her voice echoed throughout the dressing room.
He stood in the corner, head down, and finally pleaded, "It was my fault. I will treat you better from now on."
He said, "A-Nian, don't marry him, okay?"
“I can’t say yes,” she replied, then reached for her phone. “I’ve already accepted Momo’s proposal.”
The next moment, he snatched her phone.
"Mo Mo?" He felt a mixture of jealousy and anger, and looked down at her.
She turned her face away, stiffening her neck, and said, "Yes, that's the nickname he and I use for each other."
"Closer than you and I used to be?" he asked.
With tears in her eyes, she looked at him and said firmly, "Yes, I love him."
She held out her hand: "Give me back my phone."
But how could he possibly pay it back?
His eyes were red as he stared at her: "A-Nian, I really have my reasons, please listen to me."
"After hearing your story, can you leave?" she asked, her face devoid of any affection for him.
He stopped, his heart aching terribly.
The next moment, two things happened simultaneously.
She screamed for help, and he covered her mouth the moment she uttered the first sound.
She struggled fiercely, even biting his hand until it bled, but he wouldn't let go and forcibly dragged her into the car.
He wanted to take her away.
He can't let her marry Huo Yanmo!
