B-but my parents aren’t in Haicheng. I’m afraid, I’m afraid they won’t be able to make it in time. Can I call my brother and ask him to come? ”
Brother?
It was said that Gu Yi was around 20 years old, but Gu Yuanyuan looked more than that. The possibility of the brother she was talking about being Gu Yi was not high. It should be Gu Yi.
“Please,” Shi boyu lifted his eyelids.
gu yuanyuan took the phone with trembling hands and almost dropped it on the ground twice. it was the bodyguard who caught it for her quickly.
as soon as the call was made, the bodyguard turned on the speaker.
When the call connected, the other party’s voice came through, ” “Is there something?”
At the same time, in the bamboo garden of the Jiang family’s old house in Haicheng.
Shi Yan had just taken a shower and dried her hair. When she didn’t see Jiang che in the room, she opened the door and went out to look for him. When she heard movement in the study, she directly pushed open the half-closed door and walked in.
jiang che was sitting on the sofa in the study with a laptop on his lap. he didn’t type on the keyboard, only staring at the computer screen.
he didn’t even raise his head when someone entered the study. this was a rare situation, because every time shi yan appeared in jiang che’s line of sight, he would look at her immediately.
shi yan was puzzled. she walked over, held his arm, and sat down. she looked at the computer screen.”What are you looking at?”
“Surveillance.” jiang che moved the computer closer to her, making it easier for her to look at it.
There was indeed a surveillance footage on the computer, and it was a real-time surveillance.
“This is a hotel under Yuxi’s name. Recently, while they were investigating the whereabouts of the head of the Gu family, Yu Xi was also keeping an eye on people who might be related to the Gu family, and this Gu Yuanyuan was one of them. when i saw gu yuanyuan being brought into the hotel, i specially got someone to keep an eye on her. i didn’t expect ran ran to see the third young master of the shi family.”
one of them was shi boyu, and even if jiang che and yu xi didn’t say anything, they could probably guess who the other person was.
Knowing that Jiang Kui was protecting Shi Yan, Yu Xi, as a friend, would not keep an eye on those who were related to the Shi family. but now, even if she didn’t want to, she had already done so. after knowing that there were people from the shi family in the surveillance cameras, yu xi immediately transmitted the surveillance footage to jiang che in real time.
jiang che had wanted to show it to shi yan immediately, but shi yan had been in the shower.
” there’s only a surveillance camera in the living room. there’s no surveillance camera in the bedroom. the surveillance camera isn’t switched on normally. ”
Jiang che was explaining to Shi Yan. after all, this was the hotel where shi yan’s family was staying. as a family member, shi yan inevitably felt uncomfortable being watched.
“it’s fine,” shi yan said.
“This is third young master Yu’s territory, it’s only natural to have a backup plan in your own territory.”
in the past, yu xi made a living on the edge of a knife. without some tricks, she would not have been able to survive until now, let alone take such a big revenge. she did not have the leisure to blame yu xi for the surveillance camera in the living room of the hotel suite.
With her chin resting on Jiang Che’s shoulder, Shi Yan looked up at him and smiled, saying, ” “i know you want to say that my family is being monitored, but teacher jiang, third young master yu didn’t plan to keep an eye on my family from the start, right? This is also a coincidence.”
Jiang che looked at her smiling face and curled his lips. “our miss shi is so easy to talk to. i don’t know if i should be happy or worried.”
shi yan raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, ” what are you worried about? I’m not that easy to talk to in every situation. I won’t suffer any losses.
she raised her head and kissed him on the cheek. shi yan said,”Since third young master Yu has already transferred the surveillance footage, let’s take a look. We haven’t been able to find the whereabouts of the head of the Gu family for so long, so we can take this opportunity to see if we can get any unexpected gains.”
“yes.”
the surveillance camera was showing gu yuanyuan being beaten up, and she was willing to make a phone call. she could feel xie xi n’s ruthlessness.
“I’ve also heard of the madam of the Shi family in the early years. I heard that she was a person with great means when she was young. You don’t look like your grandmother, you look more like your mother.”
She was dignified and generous, exuding the gentleness of a lady from a big family.
Even if he didn’t say it out loud, Shi Yan knew what he wanted to say. She smiled and said,”actually, i don’t look like anyone, but i also look like everyone.”
“When I’m ruthless, I’ll be even more ruthless than my grandmother,” she said as she looked at the surveillance video.
“really?” jiang che chuckled.
“You don’t believe me?” Shi Yan raised her eyebrows slightly.
“it’s not that i don’t believe it, it just doesn’t look like it. Our miss Shi is obviously soft and gentle, not like a cruel person at all.”
“jiang che, don’t you think you’re overestimating me?”
it wasn’t a filter. she had always been a very gentle person.
Jiang che didn’t reply to her. He only smiled slightly and the two of them continued watching the surveillance footage.
in the surveillance footage, gu yuanyuan had already made a call and the other party had picked up.
” g-brother gu yi, i-it’s me. i’m yingying. can you come and save me? ” as soon as she finished speaking, gu yuanyuan broke down and started crying.
the other party was very calm,”where are you?” What happened?”
he was too calm and did not sound too anxious, as if he did not care about gu yuanyuan’s life or death.
“I … I’m at the hotel. I was kidnapped and taken away. It’s Shi Yan’s family. Brother Gu Yi, can … Can you come and save me? they said that as long as I call my family and ask them to come and redeem me, I can let Hanhan go.”
“but i’m not your family.” gu yi interrupted her.
“gu yuanyuan, i’ve warned you not to cause trouble for shi yan’s cousin. if you don’t listen and cause trouble, i won’t care about you anymore. if you don’t take my warning seriously, then you should bear the consequences!”
“what do you mean by this? You’re not going to care about me anymore?”
“I’m not your brother, I have no obligation to care about you! i’ve already helped you once for the sake of your parents. gu yuanyuan, you’re not a child anymore. you have to take responsibility for your own trouble!”
the call was hung up as soon as he finished speaking.
Gu Yuanyuan stared at her phone in disbelief and panic. She shouted, ” “gu yi, how dare you hang up on me! How dare you!”
” it seems like the other party doesn’t want to care about you. call the others. ”
shi boyu was expressionless.
He clearly had the harmless temperament of a weak scholar, but looking at Shi boyu like this, Gu Yuanyuan still couldn’t help but feel a chill in her heart.
she had a feeling that if she didn’t continue calling for help, she would be in deep trouble!
she wasn’t very smart, but she wasn’t a fool. by now, she could tell that they just wanted her to call for help, not for her to call someone to bail her out!
As for the reason why they asked her to make the call, she was not sure for the time being, but she had a vague guess in her heart.
it was precisely because she had this guess that she did not dare to make this call. otherwise, her fate would not be better than staying in the hands of these people in front of her!
However, she didn’t dare to not hit him. She was afraid of being hit again, and even more afraid of death!
With shaking hands, she dialed a number with the word ” uncle ” in it, but it was turned off.
He could only continue to look for other numbers while trembling. There was a number with a string of garbled numbers on it. She hesitated for a long time before she finally dialed it.
Her phone was also turned off.
