When Bai Shuixian came back after answering the phone, Lu Jingchuan had already completed the leave procedures, picked some vegetables from the fields, and was helping to prepare lunch.
"Linglong, Jingchuan, let me tell you something."
Bai Shuixian told them about the prescription donation. "Han Jigang has contacted Mr. D. Mr. D asked me to come to Beijing for an interview. I plan to deal with Xue Haihui first when I return to Beijing, and then determine the true identity of the mastermind behind this."
Neither of them had any objection and agreed to her arrangement. For the safety of the mother and daughter, Lu Jingchuan went out to find his leader again and got a special approval slip to buy train tickets.
When he came back, the meal was ready: a pot of fragrant and nutritious chicken soup, a bowl of spicy and sour chicken offal, a serving of stir-fried bitter melon, and a serving of braised winter melon.
They hadn't had a full meal in the disaster area for more than half a month, and everyone had lost a lot of weight. Now that they are back, not only did they prepare some delicious dishes at home to nourish their bodies, but other neighbors also killed chickens and bought meat to stew for nutrition.
After lunch, Lu Jingchuan accompanied his wife to the Ministry of Civil Affairs and asked Director Yang for half a month's leave.
When Director Yang learned that they were going to Kyoto to handle the procedures for donating prescriptions and were also going to visit relatives and friends on the way, he approved her leave without saying a word.
When they set off for Kyoto, the people Xue Haihui secretly sent were on their way to Seoul. He wanted to find someone in Seoul to do it, but he was not confident in handing over important matters to outsiders, fearing that they would make mistakes and cause trouble for him, so he sent his trusted confidant to come in person.
“Knock, knock… knock, knock…”
There was a hurried knock on the door. Yao Meiting, who had just arrived home and was about to cook lunch, had no choice but to open the door. "Who is it?"
"Aunt, something happened."
The person knocking on the door was Yao Ying, the niece of the Yao family. Her face was filled with panic, and her voice was trembling: "Aunt, something big has happened, go and save them."
Yao Meiting's heart tightened, and she hurriedly asked, "Yingying, what happened? Didn't you go to the event with Weidong and the others? Why are you back and they're not?"
"Aunt, we just finished an event and were on our way back when a group of vicious people rushed out and broke the legs of Brother Weidong, the siblings Xue Weiqi and Sisi, as well as Xue Weibin and Xue Fangfang."
"What?" Yao Meiting's face changed drastically.
"Aunt, hurry up, notify uncle, and go to the hospital."
Yao Ying was also very frightened. The place where they were beaten was actually where a crowd gathered. The attackers suddenly rushed out from the crowd. They all had iron rods in their hands and rushed up to hit the legs of the Xue family members hard.
After breaking their legs, they rushed into the crowd and escaped before others could react.
When Xue Haihui and his wife rushed to the hospital, their faces pale, all five of the Xue family's children were in the operating room. The doctor accurately told them: "All five of them have broken leg bones. Two have broken thigh bones, and three have broken tibia bones. Two fainted from the pain when they were brought in."
The person hiding behind the scenes ordered others to commit violence in the street, breaking the legs of the five children of the Xue family. In fact, it was a clear warning to Xue Haihui.
Xue Haihui was the first one to suspect Gong Wantang. He was sure that her hands had already reached Kyoto, and she must be well aware of the Xue family's situation. He had just sent people to Seoul, and she arranged for people to take action against the Xue family.
The news that the Xue family was retaliated against again quickly spread. Even if Xue Haihui did not call the police, the Public Security Bureau had received reports from the public and was now conducting a city-wide investigation.
"Oh no, Weifan, go find Weifan quickly."
Xue Haihui's brain worked well at the critical moment. He quickly thought of his eldest son and his nephew Weimin who worked at the unit, and immediately ordered the people from the Revolutionary Committee to go and find the two brothers.
Since returning to Beijing, Xue Weimin has been transferred to a new job position due to his parents' reasons. He was demoted three levels and transferred to a particularly busy position.
He was busy with work and had no spare time to go out, so he escaped today.
Nothing happened to him, but something happened to Xue Haihui's eldest son Xue Weifan. He was kidnapped near his workplace. A letter was left in the briefcase that fell on the ground. There were only a few words written on it, which roughly meant to invite Xue Weifan to stay with him for a while.
"Who is it?"
"Xue Haihui, what kind of enemies did the Xue family provoke?"
"People from the Public Security Bureau came to investigate and question you, why didn't you tell them?"
Both of her sons were in trouble. Yao Meiting was hysterically yelling and questioning at home. All the Yao family members who had rushed over after hearing the news were listening nearby, but Xue Haihui just held his head and said nothing.
"Xue Haihui, what evil have you done? Why don't you tell me?"
"Your parents are dead, your brother is dead, your sister is dead, your brother and his wife are in prison too, they won't be able to get out in this lifetime, now it's the turn of your son and nephews and nieces."
"If it weren't for the mortal enmity, if you hadn't done something so unscrupulous, why would the other party want to kill all of the Xue family?"
"Why don't you say anything at this point?"
“…”
Yao Meiting questioned him again and again, but Xue Haihui kept his mouth shut. He knew that if he spoke, his life would be over.
In a damp and dark basement, Xue Weifan's limbs were tied up and his body was locked with two iron chains. He had been abducted and detained here for two or three hours. He had been struggling desperately for a chance to escape, but it was all in vain.
After dark, footsteps were finally heard outside, followed by the sound of a key turning in the lock.
A heavy, rusty iron door was pushed open from the outside, and a tall, thin figure appeared at the door. He turned on the dim light and looked down at Xue Weifan like the god of death.
"Who are you?"
The man had handsome features and was very tall. He wore simple and ordinary clothes, but they could not hide his temperament. There was no warmth in his eyes, and they were so cold that it made people feel cold all over.
Xue Weifan was sure that he had never seen him before, but judging from his age, he was the same age as his father. Now he was basically certain that he was responsible for the death of his grandparents.
"What grudge do you have against our family?"
Xue Weifan is exactly twenty years old this year and looks very similar to Xue Haihui when he was young. He has lived a wealthy life since he was a child and has never suffered any hardship. His skin is much whiter than his father's when he was young, and he has a bit of the style of a young master.
The man didn't say anything, his cold eyes fixed on him. He took out a camera from his pocket, took a picture of him, then turned and left in silence.
As soon as he left, the lights turned off, and the cold basement fell into darkness.
"Come back here, come back."
"You'd better let me go quickly. When my dad comes looking for you, you'll be in trouble."
Xue Weifan shouted at the top of his lungs, but the footsteps outside quickly disappeared, and the other party didn't say a word from beginning to end.
Thinking about the death of his grandparents and uncle and aunt, Xue Weifan was scared. He had shouted for several hours, but there was no movement outside. He guessed that the place where he was being detained must be very remote, maybe a deserted place, and his parents might not be able to find him.
This man is his father's mortal enemy and will never let him go. He must find a way to escape, otherwise he will die here.
