Chapter 662: Chapter 655: Schemes (Part 10)
Ever since he learned about Bai Yiranās kidnapping, Gao Sheng had been restless, constantly worrying that Wu Chengzu in the hospital was a lurking danger. After consulting with the doctors, he immediately processed Wu Chengzuās discharge to escort him back to the detention center.
But what Gao Sheng feared indeed happened. Just as the police were about to take Wu Chengzu out of the hospital, a severe shooting incident occurred on-site. There were innocent civilians present, and the police couldnāt act freely. However, the other party did not care, holding a hostage to demand an exchange for Wu Chengzu.
The Criminal Investigation Brigade and the Anti-Drug Brigade were fully engaged in investigating Bai Yiranās kidnapping case, so personnel deployment couldnāt happen quickly.
In the end, all the police could do was watch Wu Chengzu being snatched away!
Two major cases occurred within just one day, catching the attention from the city to the province, and even the nation, highlighting the significance of this case.
For the moment, it became impossible to keep Wu Chengzuās situation a secret any longer. The public demanded an explanation, leaving the police no choice but to make it public and list him as the nationās most wanted fugitive!
Bai Yiran was locked in a room and could go nowhere. Outside the window was a vast expanse, and she thought that even if she screamed until her throat broke, no one would hear it, right?
At this point, the door to the room opened again.
Yao Zhiqing walked in with a smile, turning on the big TV in the room, "Take a look, this is your purpose."
The TV was broadcasting a news report about the shootout at the hospital, where a wanted criminal was snatched away on the spot.
Bai Yiran watched the footage secretly captured by a civilian at the sceneāthe criminal being snatched was indeed Wu Chengzu!
Seeing this, what was still unclear to Bai Yiran? Everything was just as she had suspected: Yao Zhiqing was indeed using her kidnapping to distract the police, allowing them to snatch Wu Chengzu successfully!
"Youāve achieved your goal. Can I leave now?" Bai Yiran asked.
Yao Zhiqing turned off the TV, "Of course not, darling. You need to stay and be our shield. Besides, Iām sure Wu Chengzu would love to see you!"
"Are you crazy!" Bai Yiran sneered, "You keep saying you love Wu Chengzu; arenāt you afraid that Iāll disrupt things here for you?"
Yao Zhiqing shook her head, "Iāve said before, I love him the most. For him, I can do anything. So, I can also keep you here for him."
"Youāre beyond help!" Bai Yiran turned her head away in disgust, now not wanting to look at Yao Zhiqing for even a moment. The camaraderie from their university years had vanished alongside all these events.
"I know you donāt want to see me right now, so just rest. When Wu Chengzu returns, weāll leave here."
"Leave!" Bai Yiran stood up abruptly, "Where are you taking me?"
"Of course, weāll leave this country. As for where, donāt worry about that, just follow us."
With that, Yao Zhiqing left the room.
Bai Yiran sat on the bed in despair, her mind beginning to unravel.
Yao Zhiqingās words clearly meant they intended to take her along, so she must think of a way to escape!
In the evening, when Leng Yichen returned home, Leng Liewei, Cheng Gang, and Xia Lian were all waiting there, having learned of Bai Yiranās kidnapping through various channels.
"Whatās going on! How is Yiran? Did the kidnappers call?" Cheng Gang asked anxiously. Bai Yiran was the only child left at home, so how could he not worry?
"Yes! Howās my daughter-in-law!" Leng Lieweiās mood was also not good. After spending this time together, heād completely accepted Bai Yiran as his daughter-in-law and equally did not want anything to happen to her.
Leng Yichen, with red eyes, said nothing. He merely took Xiao Xi from Sister Liuās equally anxious hands, and father and daughter huddled together into the bedroom, closing the door.
Outside, no one dared disturb Leng Yichen. This time, he was indeed the saddest one...
