“Babe.”


  The man’s deep voice echoed around her. She could feel that the man was right behind her.

  She could also feel his strong heartbeat against her back. Even in the dark, it made her feel at ease.

  Then, the scent that belonged to a man wafted towards her. With it, came the refreshing scent of his shampoo and body wash.

  And finally, Qin Shu realized something – The man would not do anything for no reason. He would not work overtime for no reason as well.

  At the same time-

  In an empty room in a villa in the suburbs, the ceiling lights shone with weak light.

  In a corner, sat a woman with disheveled hair, her head hanging down. Her eyes were covered with a black cloth, and there was a white towel stuffed in her mouth.

  This woman was Qin Ya. After leaving the bar with Mo Feifei that night, she ran into a hooligan when she was about to go home.

  When Qin Ya woke up, she realized that her hands were tied behind her back and her eyes were covered by a piece of cloth. She could not see anything and she did not know where she was.

  There was an unpleasant smell around her. It was an unpleasant smell that only came from a closed room that hadn’t been ventilated for a long time.

  Moreover, it was summer. The air conditioner was not turned on, so it was hot enough to make one sweat profusely. It was unbearable.

  When Qin Ya thought of how she had been kidnapped by bad people, her mind conjured up images of girls who had been kidnapped, extorted, had their reputations ruined, killed, or even sold to become tools for people to vent their anger on.

  Regardless of the outcome, it was enough to make Qin Ya cry out in fear. However, she could not make any sound to call for help.

  She was in an unfamiliar place and all was dark before her. The fear almost made Qin Ya, who had not experienced any setbacks, collapse.

  Right now, she could only pray that her mother would find out that she had been kidnapped and call the police to save her.

  Qin Ya’s fear and terror were all taken in by the surveillance camera in front of her.

  The video feed was watched by Shen Yaohui. When he saw Qin Ya’s frightened expression, he felt that it was not good enough. He wanted her to experience everything that he had suffered.

  He was still recovering in the hospital. Because of his old and new injuries, he had no choice but to stay in the hospital.

  Qin Shu had beaten him up because of Qin Ya. Otherwise, why would Qin Shu, who had always trusted him, suddenly beat him up?

  “Get someone to keep an eye on her. Only give her water and don’t give her food. I’ll deal with her when I get out of the hospital the day after tomorrow,” Shen Yaohui said fiercely.

  “Got it, Young Master,” the assistant nodded and replied.

  The next day-

  When Qin Shu woke up, the sun was already high in the sky.

  Last night, the man had whispered in her ear that she didn’t need to go to the office today.

  When she thought of the incident with Xu Wei, and how Xu Wei would definitely not harass Fu Tingyu for the next two days, she slept very soundly until she woke up naturally.

  After she woke up, Qin Shu washed up and went to the cloakroom to change. She changed into a white cotton t-shirt and paired it with light-colored denim shorts.

  Her long black hair was tied into a bun. This was the best way to keep cool in summer.

  Qin Shu held a white backpack in one hand and walked around to face the mirror. This outfit suited modern college students very well. It was simple and elegant, and not ostentatious.

  At the same time, it also made her figure look tall and slender. Her legs were straight and slender.

  Satisfied with her clothes, Qin Shu carried the backpack and went downstairs to eat breakfast.

  Ning Meng had already prepared breakfast. After eating, Qin Shu picked up the white backpack, carried it on her back, and walked out of the door.

  Ye Luo followed behind her unhurriedly and quietly like a shadow.

  Qin Shu only realized that Ye Luo had been following behind her when she walked out of the entrance. She had been going to the company these days and had almost forgotten that Ye Luo had been protecting her.

  Fortunately, there was one good thing about Ye Luo. If she did not do anything out of line or dangerous…… He would not tell Fu Tingyu without being asked.

  As such, he would not tell Fu Tingyu if she went to Gu Yan’s.

  Ye Luo saw that Qin Shu was going out, so after he walked out of the entrance, he went straight to the garage, drove the car out, and parked it in front of Qin Shu.

  Qin Shu did not wait for Ye Luo to get out of the car and open the door. She opened the back seat door and got into the car.

  Ye Luo looked up at the rearview mirror. Seeing that Qin Shu was seated properly, he stepped on the accelerator and drove away.

  Ye Luo’s driving speed could be said to be very fast, just like him. At the same time, he was also very stable.

  On the way, Qin Shu received a phone call. It was from Mu Lan.

  After the call was connected, she heard mu lan say anxiously, “Shu, did Ya look for you? She hasn’t come back since last night. When I called, her phone was switched off. I am worried to death.”


  Qin Shu’s eyes flashed with a trace of doubt. Did something really happen to Qin Ya?

  “No.”She replied curtly.

  “Then where did Ya go? Did she really not go to look for you? She is your sister.” Mu Lan’s voice was tearful, and her voice was very loud because she was anxious.

  Qin Shu frowned, and her voice was cold and emotionless. “Why would she come to look for me? She has so many friends, you should go ask them. What’s the use of crying to me?”


  Qin Shu hung up the phone after saying that, ignoring Mu Lan’s cries.

  She thought of the message Qin Ya had sent last night. Was Qin Ya really asking her for help?

  If that was the case-

  Qin Shu opened the zipper of her backpack. She took out her laptop, put it on her lap, and opened it.

  As long as Qin Ya’s phone was still with her, it would not be difficult to find her.

  Usually, phones would have a GPS satellite positioning system. Qin Shu skillfully entered the code, and suddenly thought of the reason why Ye Luo had managed to find her at such a precise location. Was it also because of the satellite positioning?

  Otherwise, how could he be so fast and accurate?

  Just as Qin Shu was thinking, the specific location where Qin Ya was popped up.

  Qin Shu looked at the specific location on the computer screen. It was an empty villa in the suburbs.

  If she guessed correctly, this villa belonged to the Shen family.

  Did this mean that Qin Ya had been kidnapped by Shen Yaohui?

  The corners of Qin Shu’s mouth curled up. A cold light flashed across her bright eyes. She closed the laptop and put it into her backpack.

  She would tell Mu Lan where Qin Ya was, but not now.

  It took her seven minutes less to get to Gu Yan’s villa this time compared to when she had taken the taxi.

  After Qin Shu got out of the car, she went to knock on the door.

  Ye Luo didn’t get out of the car but waited inside.

  Ji Fei had seen Qin Shu before, so he opened the door and let her in when he saw that it was her.

  “Young Master is in the backyard. Please follow me.”


  Qin Shu followed Ji Fei all the way to the backyard of the villa. From the outside, she already knew that the backyard occupied a large area. Only when she was inside did she realize that it was even bigger than she had imagined.

  There was a square-shaped gazebo 20 meters away. There was a wooden table inside.

  Gu Yan was drinking tea in the gazebo, looking very relaxed.

  Qin Shu walked over alone under the sun.
