Chapter 199 I am definitely not trying to take advantage of you, heaven and earth can witness it!
I don’t know if it was a psychological effect, but Su Lingyu seemed to have really heard the phone ringing.
"Wait for me!" Worried about Huo Xiang's safety, she followed Huo Yan's steps and hurried to the second floor.
Seeing her caring look, Chen Yuxiang and Huo Jianguo looked at each other and felt warm in their hearts.
Nowadays, "lights and telephones upstairs and downstairs" are the configurations of wealthy families, but the Huo family installed a telephone not to facilitate contact with relatives and friends, but to make it easier for the man in the family to work.
Therefore, the Huo family’s telephone was installed in the study.
There is a telephone in Huo Jianguo's study, and there is also an extension in Huo Yan's study.
Su Lingyu went straight to Huo Yan's study. Before she reached the door, she heard the voices of Huo Yan talking to someone else.
"What's going on now?"
"Qingshan Temple? Two people? Who is the other one?..."
"...Okay, I understand. Let's do it now."
"Manpower... Commander Wang... Yes!"
“…”
By the time she reached the door of the study, Huo Yan had already hung up the phone.
She asked quickly: "Have you found out where Huo Xiang is? Are you going to look for her now?"
"Yes." Huo Yan said concisely, "Huo Xiang and a high school boy named Ji Yandong also disappeared. They should have been taken away by people from the Wuliang Organization. I suspect this is Zhou Wanrou's act of revenge."
"An act of revenge?" Su Lingyu asked subconsciously.
But soon, she understood.
Zhou Wanrou couldn't find a way out from Huo Yan and herself, but she hated them deeply. What should she do? She could find Huo Xiang, who was easier to deal with.
Ji Yandong was "ignorant" and was immune to her seduction. She still had to take revenge on the "culprit" who "forced" her to leave the capital and ruined her medical studies.
However, Zhou Wanrou herself might not have thought that Huo Xiang actually discovered that something was wrong with the daughter of the southern grocery store owner. She decided to take advantage of the situation simply because she saw Ji Yandong being controlled.
Huo Xiang's behavior was a blessing in disguise, making it much easier for the system to track him down... It was not easy to track down Zhou Wanrou, but the system could always find Huo Xiang's whereabouts.
In response to Su Lingyu's question, Huo Yan's explanation was similar.
Watching Huo Yan walking downstairs, Su Lingyu grabbed his big hand and said anxiously: "Wait for me, I want to go with you too!"
"...You?" Huo Yan paused, lowered his head, looked at her with a pair of deep, dark eyes, and asked, "Do you really want to follow me?"
"Yes!" Su Lingyu said firmly, "...My sixth sense is very accurate. You knew it when we were rescuing people in Xiaoyan Village before, right? Although I am not good at fighting, with my excellent sixth sense, I will definitely be able to find Huo Xiang and Ji Yandong faster!"
"Can……"
Su Lingyu interrupted him: "Don't be so quick to deny me! I know that you may be a staunch materialist, but you have to admit that there are some people in this world who have extraordinary abilities... like me! My excellent sixth sense!"
Huo Yan suddenly hugged her tightly: "Okay, follow me!"
"Yes!" Su Lingyu's eyes lit up, and she instructed, "Go wait for me downstairs, I'll change my clothes and come right up! Oh, by the way, don't tell mom that I'm going with you, hide it from her, I'll tell her later that I'm going to see Qin Zhen for something."
Huo Yan stood up and nodded: "...Okay."
Fighting desperately with countless organizations is not a battlefield, but it is better than a battlefield.
Of course high heels and cheongsams are not an option. No matter how much Su Lingyu loves beauty, she values her life more.
She quickly went back to her room, changed into a pair of dark long trousers that were convenient for movement, put on a pair of sneakers, and used several hair ties to tie all her hair behind her head.
After going downstairs, she told Chen Yuxiang that she was going to look for Qin Zhen, and went out and walked towards the garage.
Seeing that Huo Yan was really waiting for her, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's go."
"Sit still."
…
Huo Xiang woke up from his coma, quickly became alert, and analyzed his situation immediately.
Her hands and feet were tied up, and her mouth was taped with black tape. The space she was in was dark and narrow, and her body was shaking with the ups and downs of the space. She was most likely in the trunk of a car...
The shaking she felt was probably the bumps caused by the uneven road surface while the car was driving.
After making the judgment, she turned her head to look around, and indeed saw the silhouette of the boy in the dark.
Ji Yan Dong!
Unexpectedly, when her eyes fell on Ji Yandong's face, he also opened his eyes.
In the dim light, Huo Xiang saw that he was tied up with his hands and feet just like her, and his mouth was covered with black tape.
This is not a good way to communicate.
She first soothed Ji Yandong with her eyes, telling him not to be anxious, then lowered her head and rubbed the bottom of the carriage back and forth, in this way removing some of the black tape on her mouth, revealing half of her mouth so that she could barely speak.
"Ji Yandong, do you still remember me?" Huo Xiang moved closer to Ji Yandong's ear and introduced herself in a low voice to gain his trust. "I'm Huo Xiang from the class next to yours. I got 8 points in math before and was scolded by the math teacher for a whole week. Do you remember me?"
"You can't speak now. If you understand, nod your head. If you don't understand, shake your head."
Ji Yandong nodded.
Huo Xiang's eyes lit up: "Do you know me?"
Ji Yandong shook his head.
"..." Huo Xiang sighed, "It doesn't matter, we'll get to know each other in the future."
Ji Yandong nodded.
"We are being kidnapped now, but my eldest brother and sister-in-law will definitely come to rescue us, so don't be afraid. If my eldest brother doesn't make it in time and there is danger, we will escape by ourselves. I will find a way to escape and take you with me, understand?"
Ji Yandong nodded.
Huo Xiang asked again: "Or do you think it would be better for us to get ready now and rush out as soon as the trunk door of the car opens?"
She looked at the black tape on Ji Yandong's face, suddenly swallowed her saliva, and said expectantly: "This question is not easy to answer with nodding or shaking your head, right? How about... I bite the tape on your mouth a little, and we communicate with voice? In fact, you can rub it off by yourself, but I am a helpful person, you understand? I am definitely not trying to take advantage of you, heaven and earth can see it!"
Ji Yandong: “…”
He shook his head calmly.
Ah... Huo Xiang's eyes showed regret, like a puppy that didn't get any meat or bones to eat, feeling aggrieved.
Meeting her gaze, Ji Yandong turned his eyes away.
Fortunately, Huo Xiang recovered quickly and whispered, "Well, forget about the tape on your mouth. Let's turn the ropes that bind your hands and feet into slipknots. If the car stops and we can't move, we can just wait. If we can move, I'll untie the slipknot and run with you."
Ji Yandong nodded.
"Then should I untie the rope that binds your hands first?" Huo Xiang asked.
Ji Yandong hesitated for a second and nodded.
Huo Xiang first bit the rope that bound Ji Yandong's hands. After Ji Yandong's hands were free, he also untied the rope on her hands.
Then, they each untied the ropes on their feet, and Huo Xiang tied a knot that looked very tight but could actually be untied with a little force.
As for the black tape on the mouth, it is the place that needs the least attention. Just put it back on.
Then, the two of them calmed down and waited.
Huo Xiang silently counted the seconds in his mind. After about ten minutes, the car stopped and the people in the car got out.
Without Huo Xiang's reminder, Ji Yandong immediately closed his eyes, and Huo Xiang followed suit.
The trunk door of the car was opened, and daylight poured in.
The light shone on Huo Xiang's eyelids, and he saw an orange color in front of his eyes with his eyes closed.
"There's a long climb to the temple. Carrying these two kids up the mountain will surely tire us brothers to death," a gruff voice complained.
Another person agreed: "I think we should just transport it directly to the cave in the base."
Temple?
Qingshan Temple?
Huo Xiang immediately recalled the layout of the temple that he had consciously or unconsciously memorized in his mind when he accompanied his sister-in-law to the free clinic.
