Chapter 55 Qin Yi Yu Is Taken Hostage

In the office, Tang Xinwan was in a good mood. The stock of Haitian Pharmaceutical had risen for two consecutive days. Although it was still a bit short of the original price, the momentum was good.

More and more retail investors were now paying attention to Haitian Pharmaceutical, and she believed it would get better and better.

Those partners who had called to terminate their contracts before also called today to apologize, stating they would maintain a long-term cooperative relationship with Haitian Pharmaceutical.

Although these partners were all fickle, it also showed that after the turmoil of the past few days, Haitian Pharmaceutical had become even more promising.

Seeing Ye Cangtian walk in from outside, Tang Xinwan couldn't help but ask, "Didn't Miss Qin ask you to take her back to the hotel?"

"That little girl is so cold and proud, she wouldn't even say more than a few words, how could she let me send her!"

Ye Cangtian shrugged, then smiled and said, "How do you like the helper I hired for you this time? I've made the biggest contribution to Haitian Pharmaceutical's revival. How are you going to thank me?"

Tang Xinwan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but it was indeed Ye Cangtian's contribution this time, after all, she couldn't have invited a top-tier stock trader like Qin Yiyu.

She thought that if it weren't for Ye Cangtian, and if she couldn't invite Qin Yiyu, her Haitian Pharmaceutical would probably not have been able to hold on, and might have been on the verge of bankruptcy.

"How about this, I'll treat you to a meal tomorrow! But you have to help me with something!"

"Still need help? Then I'm at a disadvantage?"

Ye Cangtian was speechless for a moment, but he still asked, "What is it, tell me!"

"Help me arrange a meeting with Miss Qin. She helped us so much, we should treat her to a meal, shouldn't we? Otherwise, it would seem like we're too stingy," Tang Xinwan said.

"That girl is not easy to arrange a meeting with! I'll try tonight!" Ye Cangtian pondered.

...

Night!

Far from the hustle and bustle of the prosperous city, there was an elegant and quiet siheyuan (courtyard house)!

Qin Yiyu had adopted some stray cats today, and five-star hotels do not allow pets. Therefore, she spent tens of millions to buy a siheyuan just to give these stray cats a home!

Perhaps only someone like her, who could earn a lot of money from the stock market with ease, would have such courage!

More than a dozen cleaned stray cats were chasing and playing in the yard, looking particularly lively.

At this moment, Qin Yiyu was no longer cold and arrogant. Her face was beaming with a smile.

In the eyes of outsiders, she might seem cold and even a bit proud, giving people a sense of being unapproachable! But only at times like this did she reveal the personality that a real girl should have.

"From now on, this will be your home! Even after I'm gone, I'll arrange for someone to take care of you!" Qin Yiyu said with a smile to these stray cats.

These stray cats also seemed very close to her, constantly rubbing against her.

However, just then!

Outside the siheyuan, a black commercial vehicle without license plates stopped. Several men wearing masks poured out of the car and kicked open the gate of the siheyuan with a bang.

"Who are you!" Qin Yiyu's face changed drastically, and she looked at the uninvited guests who suddenly broke in, somewhat panicked.

"Miss Qin, right? Please come with us!" One of the men strode forward. Coincidentally, a stray cat was blocking his path, and the man kicked the stray cat aside.

"Meow meow!" Qin Yiyu hurriedly ran over to pick up the injured stray cat, then looked up at the man with hatred, gritted her teeth, and roared, "What exactly do you want!"

The man smiled and said, "We just need Miss Qin to cooperate and come with us. Don't worry, we won't hurt you!"

Qin Yiyu gritted her teeth and said nothing. She glanced around. Several men whose faces were obscured by masks had already surrounded her. Even if she wanted to escape, it was impossible.

But she knew very well that once she fell into the hands of these villains, it would be even harder to get away.

She wanted to call the police or cry for help, but the man seemed to have seen through her thoughts and said, "Miss Qin, I advise you to cooperate. If you dare to call for help, I will kill you right here!"

Qin Yiyu's body trembled, and despair appeared on her face.

But just then, her phone suddenly rang.

She felt a surge of excitement, but at the same time, she regained her composure. She looked up at the man and said coldly, "If I don't answer the phone, the other party will definitely know something happened to me!"

The man frowned, then sneered, "I warn you, don't play any tricks, otherwise I don't mind crushing a flower! Answer it, put it on speaker!"

Qin Yiyu breathed a sigh of relief, picked up her phone, and saw that the caller ID was Ye Cangtian's number. She hesitated for a moment, then pressed both the answer button and the speakerphone simultaneously.

"Hello!"

"Miss Qin! Are you free tomorrow? Our Xinwan said she wanted to treat you to a meal to thank you for your help..."

"Tomorrow? Okay! No problem, Brother Ye is too polite, we are all friends, I promise to be there on time tomorrow!" Qin Yiyu was very nervous because she was being held at knifepoint by the other party at this moment.

There was a brief silence on the phone, but soon Ye Cangtian's voice was heard laughing, "Then it's settled! By the way, how has your father been recently? I heard he was hospitalized last time!"

Qin Yiyu replied, "Dad just had kidney stones. Later, four stones were removed during surgery, and he's fine now!"

"Alright then, get some rest early, see you tomorrow!"

"See you tomorrow!"

Qin Yiyu hung up the phone. The masked man beside her snatched the phone and removed the SIM card, saying, "You're sensible enough. Alright, let's go!"

Soon, a black cloth bag was placed over Qin Yiyu's head, and four masked men took her away.

...

In the apartment, Ye Cangtian put down his phone, his expression turning grim.

"This girl has been kidnapped!"

Just now, on the phone, as soon as Qin Yiyu spoke her first word, Ye Cangtian knew something was wrong.

After all, this girl had always been cold, but her tone of voice had changed. So he realized something was wrong and made up a random question.

"Kidney stones, four stones! It seems the people who kidnapped her are four people!" Ye Cangtian's face was grave, and he immediately stood up and walked towards the door.

He went to Xu Weiwei's door and knocked.

After a while, Xu Weiwei, wearing pajamas and with her hair still wet, opened the door and asked with a frown, "What is it?"

Xu Weiwei had been quite busy these past two days and had just returned from work and taken a bath. Her hair wasn't even dry yet. Seeing Ye Cangtian knocking on her door for no reason, her tone was somewhat displeased.

Ye Cangtian said in a deep voice, "I need your help with something!"

"Tch! If you need something, go find your fiancée, why are you looking for me!" Xu Weiwei snorted and was about to close the door.

Ye Cangtian immediately blocked it and said seriously, "I'm not kidding! A friend of mine has been kidnapped!"

Xu Weiwei was about to mock him, but when she heard the latter part, she was stunned and then hesitated, saying, "Come in, tell me what happened!"
