"What happened?" Wen Sying asked the moment she saw Da – Xia hanging up the call. Something in her expression did not felt right. She stood up to reach her before repeating her question again, "Da – Xia, what's wrong? What did the staff say on the call? Did Mr Han already checked out from the hotel?"
It would not amaze Wen Sying if she comes to know that the old man Han cheated her with the deal. But even if he had cheated her, there would be nothing for her to lose in all this. As she has said before, the ocean never lacks sharks. She would just need to find another one. But what was keeping her at the edge was the dumbstruck expression of her manager, as if she was busy contemplating some mystery she had heard on the call.
After a quite long time, Da – Xia was able to absorb the situation around her. Her eyes moved to look at Sying before saying, "According to the thing I heard on the call Sying, meeting Mr Han feels like a delusional dream, which has just happened in our thoughts".
"What do you mean?" Wen Sying asked, clearly not understanding a thing in her manager's words.
"Sying, they are saying that Mr Han has never been on the list of their guests. He has never checked in their hotel, so there would be no way where he would check out?" Da – Xia explained the things she has heard on the call.
The woman's brows scrunched in confusion. "Has never been on their list of their guests? How can that be? Didn't we just meet him there yesterday?" Wen Sying asked getting delusional of her own remembrance. Then nodding her head to her own question, she said positively, "Yes, definitely we did. Yesterday night, we met and discussed things with him. How can he not be there?"
"Did you ask them to cross-check their records? I am sure he must have missed something in between and also how can we forget that in the morning, one of their staff did inform you about his being in the room" She added more, getting a little hysterical of the things. Of course, she could not believe that the man would disappear in the air, neither would she bring herself to believe that she had met his ghost yesterday.
Da – Xia was also the same. "Exactly, Sying! I also thought the same and asked them to cross-check the things but even after checking the things twice, they were saying the same. There was no trace of Mr Han in their records."
"How can that be? Impossible!" She said, turning away from her manager, keeping on mumbling 'impossible' again and again. But then suddenly she remembered seeing the familiar silhouette of the woman from the last day.
Was that for real? Was Li Xue truly there? She questioned but could not bring herself to remember the things properly. It was just a weak glance of her that she had caught, the last day.
"President Feng, things have settled the way you have wanted. He has been taken and shifted to our underground base. And all the proofs regarding his appearance in the city have also been wiped off" Gao fan informed, standing with his head bowed slightly with utmost politeness.
Feng Shufen affirmed lightly to his words while scrolling onto something on his desktop. Though he has never doubted the meticulous skills of his secretary, he still asked, "People he met?"
"Except for our Supervisor General, Tang Daozhi, Wen Sying and her manager, we did not let him get any time or opportunity to meet anyone else. So, no traces are left there too." Gao Fan said, confirming the things all well to his President.
Last night, everything that happened was under the observing eyes of Feng Shufen. Be it the meals of the old man, or his tantrum that he was throwing in the hotel, or his meeting with Wen Sying in the casino club or the intake of paralytic drug that was given by Li Xue to him. Everything was working under his instructions. The show might have gotten ruled by the Empress but nothing was going out of the knowledge of the Emperor.
Gao Fan has also not known the thoughts of his President until yesterday when he was given the orders to abduct the old jerk without any trace behind him. Earlier he had thought that just to give the ease to the revenge of the lady, Feng Shufen might let go Han Guoli from the actual punishment he deserved. But it was his wrong to guess things wrongly.
His President was not a personality to let go the revenges, rather was the man who would do his best to return hundredfold of the worst the man actually deserved.
Just after Han Guoli thought that he was saved from the poison, he was informed that even worse was coming his way. A set group of people has barged into his room taking him into their direct custody and then taking him away to the place where he would soon be given the tortures of Hell.
Gao Fan still remembers his men informing that while transferring, the man has yelled his lungs out but none of his screams was paid heed to.
"Mm!" Suddenly he heard Feng Shufem affirming something at the front, before standing to reach his jacket. "Prepare the car!" he ordered next and the secretary understood where the carriage was ordered to be taken to.
"Yes, President Feng!" Gao Fan nodded, pulling out his phone to call for the arrangement, before following the stroll of the man from behind.
It's really been months and approx. a year, since Feng Shufen has last made a stroll in the mysterious Feng underground base. Since he was going there today, that only meant …
'The door of Hell has again invited the Devil to torture the souls!'
