The night is as thick as ink that cannot be dissolved.
Tan Zhengchu sat alone in the dim room, his eyes fixed on the screen.
The positioning signal sent by Su Yingxue should have been beating on it.
But he waited all night, but the signal fell into oblivion, leaving no trace.
His fingers tapped unconsciously on the table, his face full of worry and anxiety.
Su Yingxue is missing and Xiaoqi's whereabouts are also unknown.
When he thought of the dangers they might encounter, Tan Zhengchu's heart felt like it was being grabbed by an invisible hand.
"Boss, we can't just wait like this any longer!" The third brother hurried in with a serious face.
Tan Zhengchu stood up quickly.
There was a fierce look in his eyes: "Old Third, you are right. We can't afford to waste even a second. If this continues, Yingxue and Xiaoqi will be in great danger!"
The third brother's eyebrows twisted into the shape of a "川" character, and he echoed, "Yes, Boss, Zhao Da Kuang is clearly well prepared. We can't just sit there and wait for death."
The third brother frowned and reported helplessly, "Boss, this Zhao Da Kuang is very cunning. He lives in many different places, like a cunning rabbit with three burrows. He hides very secretly. The brothers tried very hard but couldn't track him down. Our spies clearly saw him enter a villa area before, but when the brothers rushed over, they didn't even find a shadow of him. The surrounding surveillance cameras were also tampered with, so the clues were completely cut off."
Tan Zhengchu paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, his steps quick and heavy.
After a moment, a sly look flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Humph, no matter how secretive he is, I have a way. Third brother, I plan to use my identity 'Yue Ye' in the dark market, publish a reward information, and use 'Yueying Xiangchen' as bait, so that I can lure him out without any worries."
The third brother was slightly stunned, scratched his head and hesitated: "Boss, although this is a trick, but Yueying Xiangchen... that is your hard work. Those people in the dark market have been coveting it for a long time. What if someone really finds Zhao Dakuang and we give Yueying Xiangchen to others, it will be a pity."
Tan Zhengchu stopped abruptly, his eyes flashing with sternness: "Third Brother, nothing is more important than the safety of Yingxue and Xiaoqi at this moment. If Yueyingxiang sinks, it can be rebuilt, but if something goes wrong, it will be too late!"
The third brother straightened his back and said with admiration, "Boss, I was confused! You are right. As long as we can rescue my sister-in-law and Xiaoqi safely, any price is worth it! But this dark market is full of mixed people. What if someone wants to rob the black, takes the clue but asks for an exorbitant price, or sells the information to others? What should we do?"
Tan Zhengchu narrowed his eyes slightly and snorted coldly, "They don't have the guts to play tricks under my nose. My name 'Yue Ye' is not to be trifled with in the dark market. If anyone dares to mess around, they won't be able to gain a foothold in the dark market in the future! In addition, you should send a few smart brothers to keep an eye on them and report any disturbance immediately."
"Boss, this Yueying Xiangchen has been your treasure for many years. It is one-of-a-kind. Those people in the dark market have been coveting it for a long time. It's reliable to use it as bait!" The third brother's eyes lit up and he had no worries at all.
Tan Zhengchu nodded slightly: "That's why those who want to get the Moon Shadow Fragrance will definitely try their best to find out the whereabouts of Zhao Da Kuang for it."
"Third brother, I'll leave the bounty to you. Make sure you do it well. Remember, pay attention to the details and don't let anyone give away anything that would allow those with ulterior motives to take advantage of you."
Tan Zhengchu patted the third brother on the shoulder and solemnly instructed, "I will go to the Su family now and find Yingqing to understand the situation. Maybe I can find some clues."
The third brother took the order and left, and Tan Zhengchu strode out of the room.
Time passed quietly, and it was almost afternoon.
The dazzling sunlight shone on the earth. Tan Zhengchu looked at the positioning device which was still motionless. He became more and more anxious and his steps became faster.
At this moment, every minute and every second of delay seemed to be pushing Su Yingxue and Xiao Qi into a dangerous abyss.
…
In the Su family mansion.
Su Yingqing and Fu Yunzheng were directing the servants to run around, trying to restore the Su family to its original state after being destroyed by Zhao Dakuang.
Su Yingqing looked at the mess in the living room, her face flushed with anger: "That Zhao Dakuang is too much, he has messed up our family like this!"
Fu Yunzheng echoed: "Yes, it's absolutely lawless."
After taking a breath, Fu Yunzheng pulled Su Yingqing over and said worriedly, "My girl, are you really planning to marry Tan Zhengchu? I see that he only likes Su Yingxue. Isn't this unrequited love and a hopeless situation?"
Su Yingqing crossed her arms, raised her chin, and replied firmly: "Dad, I will not marry anyone but Tan Zhengchu, so please don't try to persuade me."
Fu Yunzheng said earnestly: "Child, marriage is not a joke."
Su Yingqing stamped her feet: "I know what's going on. I know who Tan Zhengchu is. I love him. Don't worry about it. Besides, Su Yingxue has been captured by Zhao Dakuang now. This is my chance."
Fu Yunzheng sighed and compromised helplessly: "Forget it, as long as you like it."
Su Yingqing's anger had not yet subsided.
He also began to instruct the servants to change the murals in the house, critically commenting: "This one is not good, the color is too dark; that one is not good either, the style doesn't match."
The servants were so busy that they were dizzy.
At this time, the servant at the door hurried over to report: "Miss, Mr. Tan is here to visit."
"Let him wait for me in the living room!" Su Yingqing's eyes lit up instantly and he quickly walked out to meet him.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense.
In the Su family's spacious living room, the crystal chandelier casts a warm yellow light. The European-style furniture is elegant and exquisite, and the classical oil paintings hanging on the wall add a touch of literary and artistic atmosphere.
But at this moment, there was an indescribable subtle scent in the air.
Tan Zhengchu was wearing a long black coat and looked tall and straight.
He strode into the house, and his chilly aura seemed to bring a gust of cold wind with it, lowering the temperature around him by a few degrees.
Su Yingqing wore a slim-fitting cheongsam that perfectly outlined her graceful figure.
Her eyes were full of elegance and charm, and she was waiting expectantly.
Fu Yunzheng frowned and stood beside his daughter, his eyes full of protection for her.
The fourth brother was agile and followed Tan Zhengchu closely.
Behind him stood several bodyguards in suits with stern expressions and agile postures.
A group of people walked in one after another, breaking the silence in the living room.
As soon as Tan Zhengchu's figure appeared at the door, Su Yingqing caught it keenly.
She subconsciously straightened her back and turned lightly like an elegant white swan.
The corners of her mouth instantly curled up into an extremely charming smile.
Then she moved lightly, twisting her slender waist, and walked towards Tan Zhengchu in a graceful manner.
She fully believed that her wonderful posture would win Tan Zhengchu's tender gaze.
Unexpectedly, Tan Zhengchu acted as if he didn't see it, and just glanced at Su Yingqing slightly with his deep eyes.
