It was a little late when I got home.
The family chatted briefly downstairs and then went back to their rooms to rest.
She was half asleep when she was woken up by a phone call.
He opened his eyes, paused for two seconds, and grabbed the phone next to him.
When you see that the caller is a string of numbers, press the answer button.
"Is that Miss Jiang?"
"It's me." Jiang Li said, "Who is it?"
"Hello, Miss Jiang." The tone on the other end was obviously a little relaxed. "I'm Wen Changqing. Did Wen Yu leave with you tonight?"
After hearing the other party's words, Jiang Li reacted immediately. Did something happen to Wen Yu?
"No, I came back with my family in the evening. Why can't I get in touch with you?"
Before Wen Changqing could say anything, his phone was snatched away.
A gentle yet anxious voice came over, "Ms. Jiang, when Ayu separated from you, did he say where he was going? We called Ayu before, but no one answered. We called his classmates, and they said Ayu didn't return to school. His father and I went to the school and looked for him at several school gates, but there was no sign of him..."
Nian Song was really anxious.
There was no way. Her son had been in poor health since he was young, and it was not easy for him to live to this age.
Even so, her son grew up to be an excellent man.
Whether in studies or helping with the family business, they are all other people's children.
I didn't expect that after attending a banquet, I suddenly couldn't contact him.
"Have you called the police?" Jiang Li lifted the quilt, grabbed the coat next to him and put it on. "Tell me the address, I'll come find you."
They gave me an address, which was not far from Jiang's house, about twenty minutes' drive away.
Jiang Li said, "Wait for me. I'll be there in half an hour at most. Most people won't bother Wen Yu. If nothing unexpected happens, it's most likely a kidnapping."
Having said that, regardless of the mentality of Wen Changqing and his wife on the other end, she hung up the phone, changed her clothes and prepared to go out.
It is almost two o'clock in the morning and everyone in the Jiang family has gone to bed.
She didn't need to tell anyone before going out. She just grabbed her car keys and drove away from home.
**
When we arrived at the Qingwan Villa District, a young man from the Wen family was waiting at the entrance of the villa district.
Seeing Jiang Li's car, the other party came forward to ask, then got in the car and guided her to the Wen family villa.
This is one of the Wen family’s villas in South City. Because Wen Yu was studying at Nanjing University, Wen Changqing and his wife purchased two properties here.
One is near Nanjing University and the other is in Qingwan.
When I came in, there were already quite a few people in the living room, including a man in uniform, who was also a familiar face.
"Captain Zhou." She greeted him. "Any news?"
Captain Zhou shook his head. "We haven't received any news yet. If this is a kidnapping and ransom, the call should have come in. It's already been three hours since the dinner ended."
That's true.
After three hours, the group should have settled down.
"What about the surveillance cameras throughout the city?"
"Retrieving and checking."
Captain Zhou was helpless as they were not the first to receive the call.
Moreover, disappearance cannot be determined by just a random phone call.
Wen Yu is already in her twenties, and her parents can't find her and report her missing. They...
The villa is busy.
There was no news about the eldest grandson of the eldest branch of the Wen family, and the old man of the Wen family, who had been retired for many years, also appeared.
The moment he appeared, Wen Changqing's phone rang.
It's an unknown number.
Captain Zhou had already made preparations and nodded to him.
Wen Changqing answered the call and pressed the hands-free button.
A voice that was obviously changed floated out.
"Wen Cheng, you finally showed up."
Wen Cheng is the name of Mr. Wen.
His wrinkled face couldn't help but tremble, and it was obvious that he was suppressing the anger in his heart.
The old man's love for this grandson is not a little bit.
Even the eldest son Wen Changqing's status is not as high as that of the eldest grandson.
The relationship between generations is close, and this is not something that can be said casually.
"You kidnapped my grandson?" Wen Cheng's eyes were cold, and he felt extremely oppressive at the moment.
A shrill electronic laugh came from the other side, not paying any attention to his anger.
"What else? I don't have the time to chat with an old man like you in the middle of the night."
Wen Cheng suppressed his anger and said, "What do you want? On the premise of ensuring that my grandson's life is not harmed, tell me what you want."
"Hahaha..." The laughter on the other end was even more wanton. "It's simple. Trade your life for your grandson's life. Also, prepare 1 billion in cash. I only give you two days."
"Two days..." Wen Changqing growled, "Two days, one billion, you..."
"Stop talking nonsense." A sharp and piercing electronic voice interrupted Wen Changqing's words, "It doesn't matter if there is nothing. I will make sure that little bastard Wen Yu is dead."
"Tell the cops around you not to waste their efforts."
As soon as the voice fell, without waiting for anyone present to say anything, the other party hung up the phone neatly.
The whole villa became dead silent at this moment.
Jiang Li also knew that the other party would most likely not let Wen Yu live.
Walking out of the villa, the fog outside was illuminated by the floor lamp and blew by the night wind, floating in front of my eyes like a gauze.
Jiang Li strolled to the edge of a flower bed, with camellia flowers with a faint fragrance in front of him.
Dialed a number.
About half a minute later, the person on the other end picked up the phone.
There was a slight nasal tone in his voice.
"It's the middle of the night, and it's inappropriate for Patriarch Jiang to disturb someone's sleep without a reasonable reason."
There was a slight friction sound in my ears, followed by light footsteps and the sound of drinking water.
Jiang Li didn't exchange pleasantries and said, "The young master of the Wen family has been kidnapped. I don't need anything else. I just want you to find out where the other party is."
After a brief silence, the man's low, pleasant laughter came.
"Jiang Li, isn't your request a bit bullying?"
Jiang Li: “…”
Over there, Si Ming sat down on the sofa chair in the bedroom. Outside was the sea surface shimmering in the moonlight, and the dazzling night view of the island.
"I still have some feelings for you, but now you're begging me for another man..."
He hummed and smiled softly, "Do you really think I'm some good person?"
"Si Ming, what are you crazy about?" Jiang Li frowned, "Okay, give me a word."
Jiang Li couldn't see Si Ming's expression through the phone.
However, he was a little crazy, and Jiang Li knew it.
"Okay." Si Ming chuckled, his voice even more ethereal than the mist floating before him. "After I find the person... Jiang Li, I will come to find you."
Jiang Li: “…”
She had an inexplicable toothache.
"Demand a reward."
Si Ming gave her a reason she couldn't refuse, "Wait, I'll give you news before dawn at the latest."
After the call ended, Jiang Li stared at the phone screen until it went black.
She didn't know how much Si Ming wanted as a reward.
What a loss, that was her only thought now.
