Chapter 517 Fang Li is in trouble
He took a step forward, his shadow looming over Fang Li. "Xu Fangli, I'm in this situation because of you. Why am I a pariah, while you can still live a glamorous life as the daughter of the Xu family?"
"Your current situation is your own fault. What does it have to do with me?"
Fang Li stared at him coldly, unyielding. "Song Yuchen, I've said it before. People like you who just follow the tide and do whatever it takes will eventually be devoured by your own ambitions. You're just reaping the fruits of your own labor now!"
"I'm reaping the fruits of my own actions?"
Song Yuchen smiled, but that smile was shrouded in cold hatred: "If you had told me from the beginning that you were the daughter of the Xu family, I wouldn't have needed to cling to those women. How could we have come to this day? How could I, Song Yuchen, have become like this!"
Fang Li was speechless: "You are simply hopeless!"
"No! Who said I'm hopeless? Don't I still have you? As long as you come back to me, as long as you divorce Han Xi and marry me, I will be the Xu family's son-in-law, and I, Song Yuchen, will still have a chance to make a comeback!"
His words were like the tongue of a poisonous snake, licking Fang Li's nerves.
She forced herself to remain calm, groped for her phone under the sofa cushion, and quietly pressed the voice input button.
"Song Yuchen, you're dreaming!"
"Really? Then give it a try."
Watching him approach step by step, Fang Li warned: "I'm telling you, the Xu family's bodyguards are patrolling the corridor and will be here in five minutes at most."
She deliberately raised her voice and stared at Song Yuchen, "If you know what's good for you, it's still not too late to leave now."
Song Yuchen suddenly grinned, revealing his sharp white teeth, as if he had heard a joke. "Bodyguard?"
He sneered, his eyes sweeping towards the door with mockery, "Do you think... they can still get in?"
At the end of the corridor, Sheng Qianrui was frantically covering her skirt that was about to fall off, and she was crying for help while pulling two bodyguards.
"Someone is drunk and trying to molest me. Please save me!"
The bodyguard was quickly guided by her to walk in the opposite direction of the corridor. Sheng Qianrui lagged behind by one step, looked back at the end of the corridor with a dark look, and followed in her high heels.
In the lounge, Xu thought of something.
Fang Li's heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition crawled up her spine.
She clenched her phone tightly, pressed the voice button with her fingertips, and deliberately said loudly, "Song Yuchen, don't mess around! This is Xu's territory. Although the VIP lounge is a bit far from the banquet hall, if you dare to touch me, someone will notice it soon, and the Xu family will not let you go!"
Fang Li's subtle change made Song Yuchen frown. As soon as she finished speaking, Song Yuchen must have noticed something and his eyes suddenly became fierce.
He lunged at me, "What are you doing?!"
Fang Li was prepared. She dodged to the side and released her finger from the voice button.
The phone slid out from under the sofa cushions, the screen lit up, and the voice message was sent.
Seeing this, Song Yuchen tried to grab the phone from her hand like crazy, but Fang Li held it tightly and the two of them started wrestling on the sofa.
"Song Yuchen! The Xu family will be here soon! You still have time to leave now. Don't leave yourself with nowhere to go!"
"Don't you think it's too late to say this now?"
Song Yuchen pried her hands apart with all his strength. "I'm determined to get you! Now, you're my only chance!"
"ah!"
Fang Li felt pain in her fingers as he snatched her phone away.
At this moment, Han Xi's cell phone suddenly vibrated in the mining area restaurant.
It was a voice message sent by Fang Li.
He pressed the play button almost immediately. Fang Li's cold voice, with a deliberately exaggerated vigilance, came out: "Song Yuchen, don't mess around! This is Xu's territory. Although the VIP lounge..."
The voice stopped abruptly, followed by the notification tone that the message was withdrawn.
Han Xi's face instantly became as gloomy as the night sky over the Mamba Mining Area, and the aura around him suddenly became cold, as if ice had exploded in front of his eyes.
He stood up suddenly, the chair fell to the ground with a bang, and the phone creaked in his grip.
"Young Master?" Deputy Mine Manager Zhang and others changed their expressions instantly and looked at him warily.
Han Xi ignored them and strode out of the restaurant while dialing the phone. His voice was as cold as poison: "Jiangbei, prepare the helicopter, leave now!"
"Yes!" Jiang Bei followed closely, not daring to hesitate for a moment.
The call was connected the moment it was dialed, but was quickly hung up after two rings.
When I called again, there was only a cold mechanical voice in the receiver: "The number you dialed is currently unavailable."
Han Xi paused, his knuckles turning white from the force.
He took a deep breath and called Xu Fangye, his voice trembling uncontrollably: "Fang Li is in trouble. She's in the VIP lounge of your annual meeting."
In the banquet hall, Xu Fangye was holding a glass of wine and talking to his elders. Hearing this, he still had a gentle smile on his face, but his fingers suddenly stopped on the rim of the glass.
"I see."
His voice was calm and steady. "Don't worry, I'll go over and take a look."
After hanging up the phone, he winked at the assistant beside him and whispered, "Keep an eye on the old man and don't let him notice anything unusual."
Turning and walking into the corridor, the gentleness on Xu Fangye's face instantly faded, replaced by a coldness.
"Call all the bodyguards and hotel security."
He gave a solemn order into the intercom, "Seal off all entrances and exits of the hotel, and focus on searching all rooms on the fourth floor!"
When Xu Fangye and his men rushed into the lounge, the door was open.
There was no one inside, only a broken cell phone on the floor and messy wrinkles on the sofa, proving that a dispute had taken place here.
"Where are the people?"
Xu Fangye's voice was filled with subtle anxiety, and his eyes swept across every corner of the room.
"Mr. Xu, all entrances and exits of the hotel have been controlled." The bodyguard captain reported.
Xu Fangye didn't say anything and walked straight to the monitoring room.
On the screen, not long after Fang Li entered the lounge, a man in a baseball cap pushed the door open and walked in. A few minutes later, he left alone. No one else came in or out during the entire process.
But Fang Li seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.
"Zoom in."
Xu Fangye pointed at the screen and said, "Check this man's identity."
Just then, Han Xi called again.
"Did you find the person?"
The man's voice was filled with desperate urgency, "I will..."
"Don't come back."
Xu Fangye interrupted him, his voice as steady as a rock, "Mamba's matter is more important than anything else. Only by eradicating the Han family can Fang Li truly find peace. I'm here, I will definitely find her."
“…”
"Han Xi, don't forget that this is our Xu family's territory, and Fang Li is my sister."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment, followed by Han Xi's suppressed breathing, which eventually turned into a sentence: "I'll be back as soon as I find her."
