Chapter 442 Extra - Where is his Qingqing?
"Boss, I found the old lady's stall according to the address you provided, and I found the person's trail in the nearby surveillance footage. I have sent the video to your email."
Chen Tang's voice was deep, but it struck Lin Feiyan like a thunderbolt.
His and Chen Ci's guesses were correct.
The person in the ward wasn't his Qingqing, but the woman the old lady selling hats that day had mentioned, who looked exactly like Ye Qingning.
What about his Qingqing?
Lin Feiyan clutched his chest, a strong feeling of suffocation still surging within him: "Continue the investigation! Investigate this person! Don't alert him."
He believed that his Qingqing was simply being held captive somewhere, so he had to keep the people here calm, otherwise he feared that Qingqing would be silenced.
“I understand.” Chen Tang paused for a moment. “Boss, don’t worry, Brother Chu has already led his men into the mountains.”
Lin Feiyan suddenly thought of something else: "Chen Tang, check everything that has been done and all the tickets that have been booked using Ye Qingning's ID information in the last ten days."
"Boss, she wouldn't go so far as to use your sister-in-law's information so openly, would she..."
“Qingqing told me that her ID card and passport disappeared after she checked into a guesthouse in the town…” Lin Feiyan gritted his teeth slightly: “She must have used Qingqing’s identity information.”
"Okay, I'll check right away."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Feiyan's face gradually turned pale, and a huge weight quickly settled in Chen Ci's chest.
"Confirmed?"
Lin Feiyan nodded, looked up at Chen Ci, and asked, "Do you think she resembles Qingqing?"
"They are very similar to each other, or rather, they are almost identical."
Chen Ci said, "Cosmetic surgery technology is very advanced abroad now, so it might not be difficult to make someone look exactly like them. As for the voice, it can also be changed with chemicals. But..."
He paused for a moment: "There are no two people exactly alike in this world. She couldn't tell that I was the first loophole. Besides, her eyes and demeanor are not right..."
Lin Feiyan sneered: "I don't know where she gets her confidence from, thinking that she can replace Qingqing with an identical face."
Qingqing was his bedmate, whom he spent every day with. How could he not have noticed?
At first, the heavy rain simply masked the scent of a stranger on her; otherwise, he probably would have been able to recognize her the moment he saw her.
"So what do we do now?" Chen Ci asked.
"I'm going to town to find Qingqing. As for here, since she likes to be unconscious, let her stay asleep."
Chen Ci agreed: "Yes. But... perhaps if we expose her plot, she might reveal Miss Ye's whereabouts?"
Lin Feiyan shook his head: "I can't take the risk before I know who she is. Such a huge plan couldn't have been completed by her alone. I must ensure Qingqing's safety."
"Okay, then I know what to do."
Lin Feiyan patted him on the shoulder: "I'm leaving this to you. Contact me immediately if there are any problems."
"clear."
Watching Lin Feiyan leave the office, Chen Ci lowered his eyes to hide the heartache in them.
I hope she can come back safely.
He is willing to pay any price.
But ironically, he didn't even have the chance to pay the price.
So, if she can come back safely this time, as long as she can be happily with the person she loves, he is willing to do anything.
...
When Ye Qingning woke up, she was surrounded by the fresh scent of soil and leaves, but she had no time to appreciate this long-lost aroma because her hands and feet were bound.
She lay on the cold ground, half her face pressed against the dirt, feeling a chill in the air.
All that could be seen was darkness, making it impossible to discern directions or the location of this space.
I just felt a cool breeze seeping in from somewhere above my head.
Ye Qingning moved her stiff body and listened to the surrounding sounds; there was only a slight gust of wind.
She mustered her courage and called out, "Is anyone there?"
No.
There was not even a sound of any living creature present.
She struggled to sit up. There was a wall behind her, so she moved closer and leaned against it.
Recalling the previous scene, she was attacked when she went to the restroom with Li Meng during the filming of the final scene.
So, could Li Meng be there too?
"Li Meng!" she called again, "Are you there?"
It remained as quiet as ever.
Ye Qingning frowned. She didn't know what time it was, only vaguely feeling that it was night, because there was no light overhead.
So, she was unconscious for half a day?
But why does my stomach feel so hungry? It's so hungry that my stomach is cramping and aching.
And what about Ayan?
He must have realized she was gone a long time ago, right? He must have been frantically searching for her, right?
He will definitely find her, Ye Qingning firmly believed this.
Recalling the man's handsome yet anxious face, Ye Qingning silently called out: "Ayan, I'm here. Come find me quickly, I'm scared..."
Suddenly, there was a creaking sound.
Ye Qingning froze, not daring to move, and listened intently to the sound.
Then came the sound of footsteps, followed by the crack of a match being lit, and a candle was lit.
Ye Qingning narrowed her eyes. What she could see was a person dressed in black wearing a black cloak. The person was well covered up, but her figure was slender. However, it was still impossible to tell whether she was male or female.
Ye Qingning glanced around briefly. She realized that she was in a cellar about 20 square meters in size, with a wooden fence in front and steps behind it.
The man was standing by the fence watching her. Even though her face was completely obscured, Ye Qingning instinctively felt that his gaze must be very cold.
Suddenly, the man chuckled and said, "Awake?"
She was wearing a voice changer, and the voice she chose was a loli voice with a cold tone, which made her sound particularly eerie.
"Who are you? Where is this place? What do you want?" Ye Qingning asked three questions in a row.
The other person laughed: "Do you really want to know who I am? Haha, have you ever thought that if you knew who I was, I wouldn't let you leave here alive?"
"Is this still near the film set? I can smell the damp earth and leaves..."
"So what if you know where it is? Do you think you can escape?"
A complex emotion flashed in Ye Qingning's eyes. Judging from this person's tone, she roughly knew the film set... So it was someone she knew? Or someone from the crew?
"I didn't want to escape. I just want to know why you kidnapped me? Was it for money?"
"Ha." The man scoffed dismissively. "Money? You think everyone's as materialistic as you?"
"Then what is it for?"
"For what?" the man sneered. "Do you still remember Xiao Cui, who took such good care of you at the Lin residence?"
"Xiao Cui?" Ye Qingning was taken aback. Aunt Qin and Ayan had both said that Xiao Cui had resigned and returned to her hometown. "I know, she resigned and returned to her hometown."
"Resign and go back to your hometown?" The man sneered again: "You really know how to deceive yourself."
