Chapter 39: Danger
Unexpectedly, the person that Shen Caisheng had not found yet was found by the male protagonist of the original book first.
"How did you find it?"
Zheng Changqing said: "It was also a coincidence. I saw a few men from other places near my home these two days. They looked strange, so I took a closer look."
Those men basically don't interact with others, and they always have cold faces when they go out. In the words of their neighbors, they are like evil spirits, and they only dare to say these words in private.
But even in private, they still attract attention.
But they look honest, so no one thinks of them as bad guys.
"Just now when I was walking back, I passed by their yard and heard some unusual noises coming from inside. So I paid more attention and heard them saying that catching that woman would be useful. I think she must be the person you were talking about."
So it’s most likely Ma Lili.
It's just that he was in a hurry to find Yuan Lingling, so he didn't hear what the other party's ultimate purpose was in capturing Ma Lili.
Yuan Lingling thought for a moment and said, "I'll go with you to take a look. Xiaoxi, you wait here. When your brother Chen comes back, tell him."
Yang Xiaoxi looked at the two of them with some worry, "I...I'll go with you."
She winked at Yuan Lingling in surprise. Although it didn't make any sense, Yuan Lingling somehow understood what she meant.
Unfortunately, Zheng Changqing standing next to him also saw it.
Yang Xiaoxi didn't feel embarrassed. She thought her worry was justified. At present, it seemed that Zheng Changqing was indeed a good person, but how could Sister Lingling be so defenseless against someone she had just met once?
Otherwise, instead of rescuing Ma Lili, she would be implicated.
Thinking of this, Yang Xiaoxi said more firmly: "I will go with you. You are still pregnant and I am worried."
Seeing her firm attitude, Yuan Lingling knew that she probably couldn't persuade her, so she nodded, "Okay, then bring me a pen and paper, and I'll leave a letter for your brother Shen."
It's not easy to let someone pass on the message, but she often follows Shen Caisheng here, and she knows all the neighbors. As long as Shen Caisheng comes back and asks, he will know where they have gone.
Yang Xiaoxi hurriedly took out a pen and paper. Just in case, she also wrote a letter and put it inside the door so that Shen Caisheng and the others could see it when they came in.
Ten minutes later, the three of them walked quickly towards the north of the city.
The area in the north of the city next to the station has all kinds of people because of the station. Plus, that area is the old city, so it's much more chaotic than their west side.
Yuan Lingling was also thinking that since Shen Caisheng and his group had come to the station, she might be lucky enough to run into them, but she obviously overestimated the fate between the two of them. Not to mention Shen Caisheng, it was unlikely that anyone would be able to see them.
"Over here." Zheng Changqing didn't say much along the way, and he also took care of their pace. But when he spoke little and had a wooden face, he really didn't look like a good person.
Yang Xiaoxi had been standing between Yuan Lingling and him, as if he was afraid that he would do something to Yuan Lingling.
"Where are you taking us? Why are you getting further and further away?"
Yang Xiaoxi's tone was a little bad.
Zheng Changqing glanced at her, but didn't argue with her. He said, "It's right in front. Don't look around. It will arouse suspicion. And don't talk nonsense."
“You… don’t try to play tricks. We followed you because we trust you, but that doesn’t mean we are defenseless. If you dare to play any tricks, Brother Shen will definitely not let you go.”
Yang Xiaoxi was choked by him, but she didn't give in at all. She just pretended to be calm and didn't look around defensively anymore.
Under normal circumstances, Yuan Lingling would have smiled like an aunt when she saw the interaction between the two, but for some reason, ever since she moved in this direction, she felt vaguely uneasy in her heart.
"Stop arguing. It's broad daylight. He can't do anything to us." The latter sentence was said to Yang Xiaoxi.
She didn't mean what she said, which made Yang Xiaoxi even more worried.
Yang Xiaoxi felt that Sister Lingling was too trusting. She had heard that many abducted women were abducted in this way.
The further she walked, the more worried she became. She even began to blame herself, blaming herself for not going out today. If she had not gone out, she would not have run into the group of people from the Niu family, and she would not have met Zheng Changqing. If she had not met Zheng Changqing, she would not have been brought to this place by him.
Although Ma Lili was a life, her sister Lingling was pregnant with two babies.
"Sister Lingling, are you feeling uncomfortable in your stomach?" she asked worriedly.
"It's okay, don't worry. Walking more is good for your health." Knowing that she was concerned about her, Yuan Lingling did not impose her own anxiety on her.
Zheng Changqing glanced at the two of them and said, "It's just ahead. Let's... be careful!"
Before he could finish his words, two men suddenly jumped out from the corner and almost bumped into Yuan Lingling and the other person.
Fortunately, Yuan Lingling dodged quickly and leaned against the wall of the house next door, thus avoiding the attack. Yang Xiaoxi was walking in the middle, facing the man on the left. If Zheng Changqing hadn't pulled her, the two would have bumped into each other.
But even though they pulled away a little, the man still bumped into Yang Xiaoxi's arm, causing Yang Xiaoxi to hiss in pain and her face turned pale.
"How dare you bump into me? Wow, this woman is pretty good looking."
The man's face was full of □□ when he spoke, which made people feel disgusted when they saw it.
However, when he said this, the man next to Yuan Lingling was also staring at Yuan Lingling with ill intentions in his eyes, but without lust.
I'm not here for their looks.
Yuan Lingling instinctively sensed danger. She took a step back defensively, and the man took a step forward. "Why are you running?" he said. "Can I eat you?"
"Sister Lingling!" Yang Xiaoxi noticed the situation here and was about to rush over, but the man who bumped into her just now actually wanted to grab her, but Zheng Changqing next to her grabbed his arm, and the two started fighting.
The man here also wanted to attack Yuan Lingling, so Yuan Lingling turned around and ran, but she bumped into an aunt carrying a vegetable basket.
"Hey, sister, are you okay?"
Yuan Lingling's heart was beating wildly, and she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that it was only a middle-aged woman. She subconsciously turned around, but didn't notice that someone was covering her mouth and nose.
Before she fainted, she heard Yang Xiaoxi calling her, and suddenly remembered a plot in the original book.
As school celebrities, Yang Xiaoxi and the male protagonist Zheng Changqing are inevitably put together.
At that time, Yang Xiaoxi was not yet the strong woman who dominated the business world later on, and she was still rather confused in doing things.
Once she attended an event with Zheng Changqing, but she went out alone and got lost.
Zheng Changqing anxiously looked for her for a long time. The first thing he said when he found her was, "Why are you still so careless? What if you meet a bad guy? I can save you once or twice, but I can't save you every time."
His inexplicable nervousness made the relationship between the two people develop rapidly.
The heroine Yang Xiaoxi first got lost, then was bullied, and then was cared for. Her mood was so up and down that she didn't think about what the hero said for a while. Later, the two of them got together naturally and forgot about this matter.
So in fact, Zheng Changqing knew Yang Xiaoxi before he went to college, and he had saved her before, probably this time.
But what about yourself?
Yuan Lingling fell into complete darkness before she had time to think about what role her original self played in this plot.
At the entrance of the train station, Shen Caisheng, who had just come out after inquiring about the situation, stopped where he was with his eyelids twitching.
"What's wrong?" Lao You turned around and asked in confusion when he saw that he didn't catch up.
"It's okay, let's go back first."
"Go back? Aren't we going to the east of the city?"
Didn’t we just agree on this? Lao You was already very familiar with him and knew something was wrong at a glance, but there was nothing Lao You could do unless he told him.
"Why don't you go over and take a look first, I'll be there in a moment." Shen Caisheng said as he walked back, with no intention of waiting for Lao You.
How could Lao You go there by himself? His reputation was far worse than Shen Caisheng's, and it was not very convenient for him to do things there. At worst he could go there again later.
"Where on earth did this person go? Can we really find him like this?"
Lao You didn't hold out much hope for this matter. Beijing is a city with many interconnected transportation networks. If he was really abducted, they probably wouldn't get any clues even if they waited at the station the whole time.
However, Shen Caisheng couldn't say anything, he just walked back with big strides, obviously having something on his mind.
-
Yuan Lingling had a dream. In the dream, her parents were busy with something and left her alone at home.
She was very angry and wanted to let her parents know how irresponsible they were to her, so she thought of a way to lock herself in the closet.
But when she woke up again, the closet door couldn't be opened, and no matter how much she cried and screamed, it was useless.
"Wake up... Sister Lingling, Sister Lingling, wake up."
Yuan Lingling opened her eyes, and the darkness in front of her made her shrink back suddenly. Only then did she realize that her hands and feet were tied and she could not move at all.
She was tied up.
"You're awake, Sister Lingling, are you okay?"
"I...I'm fine. What happened and why are we here?"
Yuan Lingling tried her best to suppress her fear of the darkness around her. She closed her eyes and pretended that she was sleeping at home, but her mind was thinking about what happened today.
Isn’t Zheng Changqing the male protagonist? How come he turned evil?
"Is it Zheng Changqing? Is he in the same group as those people?"
"No, no, he had a fight with those guys and he was injured."
Yang Xiaoxi spoke in a crying voice but with some urgency.
But at this moment Yuan Lingling's mind was confused and she didn't know whether what she said was right.
All kinds of thoughts kept turning around in her mind. Sometimes she felt that Yang Xiaoxi's previous suspicion was correct and that Zheng Changqing's appearance was just too coincidental. Then, she believed the plots she had seen and that the heroines were all good people and there was no reason for the hero to be a bad person.
The surrounding darkness was like a dense black net that enveloped Yuan Lingling, covering her mouth and nose and making it impossible for her to breathe.
Who are those people and why did they kidnap me and Yang Xiaoxi?
Is it directed at me or at Yang Xiaoxi?
Are the people who kidnapped Ma Lili in cahoots with them?
"Xiaoxi, do you know those people?" Yuan Lingling pinched the flesh on her fingers hard to keep herself awake.
"I don't know them, but they are obviously coming for us. Sister Lingling, did Ma Lili offend someone?"
How would she know whether Ma Lili had offended anyone outside?
Could it be someone from the Xie family?
I hate Ma Lili and I hate her, who else could it be except the Xie family?
But is Jiang Liping really that brave?
The scenes of what happened these days flashed before Yuan Lingling's eyes, and she always felt that there was something she had overlooked.
She seemed familiar with the man who wanted to attack her today. Could he be targeting her?
The two men suddenly rushed out of the alley. What was at the other end of the alley?
Suddenly, a flash of light flashed through Yuan Lingling's mind, and she suddenly remembered where she had seen that man.
It's those eyes!
