But are those bizarre things in my dream really real?
Maybe it was just a very ordinary nightmare.
Gu Baiwei felt inexplicably uneasy, but she couldn't tell Chen Yifan about such an unbelievable thing.
I could only tell Shen Yanqing and ask him to send someone to help me look for the person.
Chen Yifan searched for most of the day but found no clues. He went to the hotel to check the surveillance footage, only to be told that the cameras were broken.
Left with no other option, he went to the local police station to report the disappearance, only to be told that the case could not be filed because the disappearance had not lasted for 24 hours.
That evening, Chen Yifan arrived at Shen Yanqing's villa, his face pale.
The gatekeeper had already been notified and let the person in immediately.
As soon as he entered the room, he found Gu Baiwei and Shen Yanqing sitting side by side on the sofa, as if they were waiting for him.
"Mr. Shen, I hope you can send someone to help me find my sister."
Chen Yifan's face paled, and he gritted his teeth to get straight to the point.
Shen Yanqing raised an eyebrow: "What does your sister's disappearance have to do with me? Why should I send people to look for her?"
Gu Baiwei secretly pinched his thigh. This man had already sent someone to look for him, but he was still deliberately making things difficult for Dr. Chen.
Shen Yanqing looked at her with a smile in his deep eyes, his large hand firmly enveloping her small hand, and he whispered in her ear, "Be good, don't be naughty."
Chen Yifan stood stiffly in place, his hands slowly clenching into fists. After a long while, he bowed ninety degrees to Chen Yanqing and said, "President Chen, I am sorry for what happened yesterday. I hope you can forgive me."
He had barely finished speaking when the doorbell rang urgently.
The nanny went to open the door, and as soon as it opened, Da Tou rushed in with a USB drive in hand: "Boss, we found a clue, but..."
Shen Yanqing looked up, his eyes deep and dark.
Big Head jumped in surprise, no longer daring to keep them in suspense, and hurriedly said, "The surveillance footage shows that the car turned into the old town, but then disappeared after entering the old town."
Linhai City is divided into two parts: a new urban area, mainly the city center, and an old urban area that has not been demolished.
The old town is densely populated and the surveillance coverage is limited, so finding someone is not easy.
Shen Yanqing frowned and tapped his long fingers on the coffee table: "Then send more people and find an excuse to investigate door to door."
Chen Yifan, who was standing next to him, also realized what was happening and jumped up from his seat: "My sister has been kidnapped and taken to the old city?"
Shen Yanqing nodded slightly, and Chen Yifan hurriedly asked, "President Shen, could you have your people take me with you?"
Big Head next to him glanced at him with a disdainful look: "The old town is a mixed bag. A pretty boy like you is better off staying here. If something happens there, we'll have to save you first."
Chen Yifan disagreed. How could he be a gigolo? He at least knew some martial arts.
Before he could speak, Shen Yanqing said calmly, "You stay here and wait for news. Once 24 hours are up, go and call the police immediately."
Chen Yifan glanced at his watch; it was already 8:30 PM. In a few hours, he could go to file the case. He pursed his lips and silently sat back down on the sofa.
At 1 a.m., Chen Yifan rushed to the police station to report the incident. No sooner had he left than Da Tou called, saying that they had found the suspicious van in an abandoned factory in the old city, but had not found the driver.
Those are all old houses that are decades old, and there are no security cameras at all, so there's no way to find them.
Shen Yanqing asked him to investigate the car to see if he could find any useful clues.
After hanging up the phone, I looked down and found that Gu Baiwei had fallen into a deep sleep on the sofa at some point.
A small face was buried in the leather sofa armrest, and her pink lips, like flower petals, were slightly parted, revealing a hint of her snow-white teeth.
His heart stirred slightly, and he slowly leaned closer, bending down to kiss those crimson lips briefly.
He casually grabbed a suit jacket from the side and draped it over her shoulders. He bent down, picked her up from the sofa, and carried her upstairs quietly.
Perhaps he was too sleepy, because the person in his arms curled up in his arms like a kitten, obediently letting him hold her, and didn't wake up even after he carried her upstairs.
He carried her directly to the large bed in the room, carefully helped her take off her clothes and shoes, and covered her with a blanket. Then he turned on a bedside lamp, picked up a book, and leaned against the other side of the bed, reading while waiting for news.
Gu Baiwei didn't know when she fell asleep. In her hazy state, she felt her body swaying and occasionally jolted. It didn't feel like she was lying in a bed; it felt more like she was lying in a train carriage.
She frowned, groggily opened her eyes, and found herself in a closed space, so dark that she couldn't see her hand in front of her face.
In the dim sound, she heard someone sobbing softly, but it seemed as if their mouth was covered by something, and even their crying was muffled and indistinct.
Just then, a piercing police siren suddenly sounded outside, followed by someone shouting for the car to stop.
She then realized that she was now on a van.
The wheels screeched as they slammed on the pavement, and just when she thought the car was about to stop, a man's raised voice came from outside the door again: "Stop the car! Stop the car right now!"
Immediately afterwards, she felt the car suddenly turn around and speed off in another direction.
The road seemed very difficult to travel, full of potholes, like sitting on a ship, making her feel like she was about to fall apart.
I don't know how long I walked, but the sound of police sirens outside grew farther and farther away until I couldn't hear them at all.
It seems they've shaken off the police.
At that moment, the car suddenly stopped, followed by a series of steady and powerful footsteps.
With a click, the door was opened, and pale moonlight shone in through the crack in the door.
A person's shadow was stretched long by the moonlight.
She slowly shifted her gaze, and in the dim moonlight outside, she saw the strange man from before again.
This time, however, he wasn't wearing a mask. His pale face had a hideous scar on his left cheek, running from the corner of his eye to the corner of his mouth, making him look ferocious and terrifying.
His dark eyes stared at her greedily: "Sister, just hang in there a little longer. Once I cut off that woman's arm and find the right eyes, you'll have a complete body again."
A single, heartfelt sentence sent chills down Gu Baiwei's spine.
What exactly does this person want to do?
She jolted awake from her dream.
"Weiwei, you're awake. Did you have a nightmare?"
Shen Yanqing's deep, magnetic voice rang in her ear, and his large, well-defined hand gently patted her head in a comforting manner: "Weiwei, don't worry, Chen Shuang has been found."
