When the woman asked him what he was doing there, Bai Qinghuai was too embarrassed to admit that he had come to see his fiancée.
The two chatted in the VIP room for about ten minutes before the woman smiled and took her leave.
Bai Qinghuai didn't tell Qi Xiaoxiao before he came here. After looking at the address his assistant gave him, he picked up his things and prepared to take a car there.
But sometimes fate plays tricks on people. Before Bai Qinghuai even arrived at his destination, his assistant called.
Something unexpected happened at the company, and the staff below couldn't handle it.
Since Bai's father semi-retired, he has rarely been involved in affairs. A few days ago, he even took Bai's mother on a trip, leaving his two younger brothers unreliable.
He rubbed his forehead wearily, glanced at the distance getting closer and closer to Qi Xiaoxiao's house, and felt a pang of reluctance to go back.
Bai Qinghuai took out his computer and tried to handle the matter online.
Meanwhile, in City A, Bai Qingyu had just left the company.
Since joining this entertainment company, he has met many more artists, and he feels that his standards have become higher.
I haven't been able to recall the name Leng Yan for a long time.
Moreover, being able to get up close and personal with her idol, Wanwan, made Bai Qingyu feel that her current life was incredibly wonderful.
Humming a song, I walked into the underground parking lot. As soon as I unlocked the door, I suddenly heard a faint call in my ear.
Bai Qingyu stopped and looked around, but didn't see anyone.
But as soon as I touched the car door, the shouting came again, and this time it was louder.
The location seems to be near my car.
Curious, she followed the sound, and after turning past a car, Bai Qingyu's brows furrowed immediately.
A heavily pregnant woman was sitting on the ground, with a pool of blood beneath her.
"Save my child." The woman weakly beckoned to Bai Qingyu.
This was the first time Bai Qingyu had encountered such a situation. Although he was not very old, he knew that the woman's condition was very dangerous.
"I'll call an ambulance for you." Bai Qingyu said, taking out her phone to make a call.
"Handsome young man, could you help me get my bag?" The woman interrupted him, pointing to the ground more than three meters away from her.
Bai Qingyu, without any other suspicion, strode over.
Just as he crouched down, a sudden gust of wind swept up from behind him, and Bai Qingyu instinctively dodged.
Turning around in surprise, I saw that the pregnant woman who had just been lying on the ground, weak and unable to move, had now stood up.
And he pulled out a baseball bat from who-knows-where.
"You found out." The woman sneered, then pulled out her fake belly and threw it on the ground.
Bai Qingyu had learned some martial arts, but she was powerless against a professional and was quickly hit on the leg with a stick.
"Who sent you? What is your purpose?" Bai Qingyu's forehead was covered in sweat from the pain, but she still stubbornly looked at the woman and asked.
The woman didn't answer, only saying, "You'll know when we get there."
With another sudden swing of the stick, Bai Qingyu immediately fainted, blood flowing from her head.
The phone then fell to the ground.
The woman didn't even glance at her phone. She kicked the car under the wheel, then grabbed Bai Qingyu by the collar, dragged him to the car next to her, and sped away.
Meanwhile, Bai Qinghuai, who had already arrived at Qi Xiaoxiao's doorstep, frowned as he listened to the phone call next to him until he could no longer hear anything from the other end before picking it up.
After taking one last deep look at the Qi family's gate, Bai Qinghuai told the driver to go back.
Just then, Qi Xiaoxiao came out of the house and tilted her head in confusion when she saw the car speeding away.
"Could it be a thief coming to scout the place?" Qi Xiaoxiao had just finished watching the news, which was reporting exactly this kind of thing.
"We need to lock the gate at night to keep Caiwang alert." Wangcai is Qi Xiaoxiao's dog, and it's already eleven years old.
Just now, when Bai Qingyu was attacked, she accidentally dialed his most recent call.
While in the car, I contacted people in City A. Less than five minutes after Bai Qingyu's accident, the entire Bai family had been dispatched.
The plane that had been arranged was already waiting at the airport, and Bai Qinghuai flew directly back.
When Bai Qingzhi learned the news, it was already evening. She panicked and her hands trembled as she picked up her phone to contact Xiao Yuan.
Upon hearing Bai Qingzhi's tearful voice, Xiao Yuan rushed back from the social gathering, arriving at the Bai family home just forty minutes later.
The matter was not told to Bai's parents. At this time, all the children of the Bai family were at home. The people sent out investigated for a long time, but found nothing except that the car that took Bai Qingyu had driven out of the city.
Ignoring the stares of others, Xiao Yuan walked straight to Bai Qingzhi and then pulled her, whose face was pale, into his arms.
He gently pressed her head against his chest to comfort her, and looked at Bai Qinghuai as he spoke:
Are there any suspects?
"There are a few, but we need to check the specifics. I don't know if we have enough time."
He heard it clearly on the phone: Qingyu had been hit several times, some of which hit her on the head.
So far, no calls have come in, which means that the other party is not kidnapping for money.
But it is precisely this that worries them the most.
Rubbing his temples, Bai Qinghuai leaned back on the sofa, unaware of the message Qi Xiaoxiao had sent on his phone.
They waited until 11 p.m., but no one felt sleepy at all.
Suddenly, the phone rang, and everyone looked at Bai Qinghuai, but he shook his head.
"Mine." Xiao Yuan took out his phone and saw that it was Mo Yunze, whom he hadn't contacted in a long time.
Subconsciously, he felt that the two might be related.
Sure enough, after the call connected, Mo Yunze said that a group of new members would be arriving at the Holy Sect that evening.
After saying that, he seemed to look around to see if anyone was there, and then said in an even softer voice:
"However, it seems that this group of people did not come voluntarily. I heard that there are several scions of top wealthy families in China among them, including one surnamed Bai. They have not arrived yet, and I do not know if they are members of the Bai family."
Things took an unexpected turn in an instant.
After hanging up the phone and explaining the situation, everyone agreed that the member of the Bai family was Bai Qingyu.
And the possibility of being captured by the Holy Church is even greater.
Bai Qinghuai wanted to go abroad, but Xiao Yuan stopped him.
"Hey, you stay here. If it turns out that it's not Qingyu, it'll be easier for you to handle it from China."
Xiao Yuan's words made sense.
"Be careful." Bai Qingzhi had a feeling of unease in her heart.
That evening, Xiao Yuan handed over company matters to his younger brother and boarded a plane, landing at dawn.
After letting Bai Qingzhi know he was safe, Xiao Yuan checked into a hotel near the Holy Church, arranged by his assistant.
At the same time, Bai Qingyu woke up in a dimly lit small room.
The blood on his head had congealed, and he felt completely dizzy.
The room was dark and stuffy, and with her injuries, Bai Qingyu found it difficult to even breathe.
