Chapter 422: Chapter 422: Kidnapping the Person over
After Xu Hai left, Dong Junhao took out his phone and made a call.
“Make arrangements, I want to meet Wei Ting.”
“Okay, young master.”
Dong Junhao hung up the phone expressionlessly.
He looked out the window, only to see the clouds in the sky gradually turning gray.
The weather changes just as quickly as people’s hearts, doesn’t it?
…
Xiao Mansion.
Mrs. Xiao was sitting on the sofa in the living room, enjoying tea.
The couple did not go to the old house; they just went out for a stroll, and after Lan Yan and Xiao Si went to the airport, the couple returned home.
Peng Yiming stood in front of the coffee table, looking at Mrs. Xiao, and said: “Madam, before the young master left, he asked me to tell you that there’s news about Wei Ting.”
When Mrs. Xiao heard this, she immediately put down her teacup, “Where is he?”
Peng Yiming: “He is currently over in Hong Kong.”
“Are you sure it’s the Wei Ting I am looking for?”
“It should be right. Everything about him matches your description, madam.”
Mrs. Xiao pondered for a moment, “Xiao Peng, figure out a way to bring him to see me.”
“Okay, madam.”
“Make sure not to hurt him.” Mrs. Xiao instructed: “And don’t alert him.”
Peng Yiming answered: “I understand, madam.”
Then, he turned around and left.
That night, Peng Yiming arrived in Hong Kong with his men.
A black car stopped at the entrance of a neighborhood.
Ten minutes later.
A man came out.
The man looked at Peng Yiming leaning against the car door and said: “Mr. Peng, it seems we’ve come too late, the Wei Family said Wei Ting is not home.”
Peng Yiming: “What do you mean?”
“They said some people came looking for Wei Ting this afternoon, and after he went out, he never came back.”
Upon hearing this, Peng Yiming frowned slightly.
Then, he took out his phone and dialed Xiao Si’s number.
At the moment, Xiao Si and Lan Yan were just about to head out for dinner.
After arriving in City B and checking into the hotel, they hadn’t gone out at all.
There was no particular reason, except that it suddenly started raining heavily in City B and has been raining ever since, and it’s still drizzling outside.
“Hello, young master, is it convenient for you to talk now?” Peng Yiming asked.
Xiao Si was standing on the balcony outside the living room, overlooking the dazzling nightscape of City B below.
“What’s the matter, speak!”
“Well, young master, madam asked me today to take Wei Ting to meet her. But when we arrived in Hong Kong, we couldn’t find Wei Ting. His family said some people came looking for Wei Ting this afternoon, but they didn’t recognize who it was.”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Si furrowed his brows slightly.
Gone missing?
The man rarely spoke seriously: “Investigate, find out who took him, and if you can’t, don’t bother calling me!”
Peng Yiming: “…”
“Oh, got it.”
When Lan Yan came out of the bathroom, she saw him standing on the balcony, making a call.
After Xiao Si hung up the phone, he walked back in.
“What’s wrong? Did something happen?”
Although his expression was no different from usual, Lan Yan could still sense a hint of unusualness about him.
Xiao Si wrapped her shoulders around him and pulled her into his arms.
He looked down at her, his lips curling into a wicked smile: “Nothing, just a call from Ms. Liang. She told us to enjoy ourselves these few days and to give her a surprise when we get back if possible.”
Lan Yan raised her eyebrows slightly, “What surprise?”
His captivating peach blossom eyes had a hint of teasing laughter: “What do you think?”
Saying this, his hand hugging her waist suddenly tightened.
There was almost no space between the two of them.
Lan Yan looked at him with exasperation, she knew what he meant.
Although she agreed to be with him, she hadn’t decided to reach that point yet.
“Do you really think you haven’t been beaten by society enough?”
“Do you need me to let you experience it a bit?”
Xiao Si said: “Girls shouldn’t casually talk about fighting every time they open their mouths.”
Lan Yan rolled her eyes at him: “If you don’t like it, you can find someone who doesn’t talk about fighting.”
The man immediately said: “No, I only want you.”
“Then let go, let’s eat, you’re not hungry, but I am.”
“Kiss me first, then I’ll let go.”
After saying that, he lowered his head and kissed her rosy lips, not giving her any chance to refute.
“…”
The next day.
City First Hospital.
“Young master, we’ve brought Wei Ting back, but we found that there is another group secretly looking for Wei Ting.”
“Who?”
“Not clear, the other side has hidden their identity, we haven’t found out yet.”
Dong Junhao sat on the hospital bed, his face still looking a little pale.
“Young master, when do you plan to see Wei Ting? Do you need me to bring him over?”
Dong Junhao changed his mind, “No need for now, just keep an eye on him and tell him not to reveal his location to anyone.”
If he meets him now, the others will surely find him.
“Understood.”
“Also, don’t hurt him, don’t be rough. Give him whatever he wants.”
“Yes, young master.”
After the man left, Xu Hai came in shortly after.
“Young master, I’m back.”
Dong Junhao: “I’m not blind, I see you, say what you want.”
Xu Hai responded, “Regarding the matter you asked me to investigate about the young lady’s bone marrow, I discovered a problem, that the young lady knew the doctor who initially did the marrow matching.”
“Go straight to the point!”
“The point is, it seems that this doctor has some sort of relationship with the young lady… young master, you know…”
Xu Hai stopped halfway through his sentence.
But those who understand naturally understand what he was trying to convey.
Dong Junhao did not expect Dong Xiaoxiao to be so extravagant.
Then, he said solemnly: “Anything else?”
Xu Hai: “For now, nothing else. The other party did everything flawlessly, no issues have been found on the test report. But just this layer of the relationship suggests that this matter may have some hidden aspects.”
The man’s dark eyes seemed like a black hole, filled with danger.
“If that’s the case, then draw blood again and redo the matching!”
“Young master, but the young lady is currently detained at the police station, how can we draw blood?”
The police station isn’t a place one can enter casually.
The man glanced at him, “Is your brain for decoration or just there to make you taller?”
The implication being: Can’t you use your brain to come up with a solution?
Xu Hai: “…”
This indeed posed a challenge for him.
After all, it was the police station, even if he thought of a way to meet the young lady, it would be impossible to draw blood in front of the police, right?
Besides, whether the young lady would allow him to draw blood was still unknown.
This task was too challenging…
Somewhere in a five-star hotel.
“Who exactly do you want me to meet?”
Since being taken into the car and knocked out yesterday, Wei Ting woke up to find himself in this unfamiliar hotel.
And he wasn’t allowed to go outside.
A black-suited bodyguard looked at him and said: “Mr. Wei, please don’t worry, we won’t harm you, just feel at ease staying here for now. We’ve already informed your family clearly.”
No matter what he asked, the bodyguard only had one sentence, which was not to worry, and would not reveal any more information.
Wei Ting couldn’t figure out who wanted to meet him.
All these years, he’s been conducting his business honestly, and even if he had offended some people in the business world, no one dared to touch him in Hong Kong.
But this group of people appeared yesterday and directly took him from his home.
But it seemed like they didn’t have any malicious intent.
For a while, he was completely at a loss.
One day later.
Peng Yiming was still searching secretly but had no leads, and any lead he might have seemed to get immediately cut off.
Having no other option, he went to seek help from Wan Muqi.
“Mr. Wan, please help me out, if I can’t find the person again, my young master will dismember me when he returns.”
Wan Muqi sat leisurely on the chair, glanced at him, and said: “Your young master wouldn’t be so heartless toward you.”
Peng Yiming: “No, Mr. Wan, he definitely would, I don’t hold as high a place in my young master’s heart as Miss Lan does.”
Upon hearing this, Wan Muqi slowly asked: “So, this matter is related to Lan Yan, isn’t it?”
Peng Yiming nodded, “Yes, it is.”
“Then tell me, what’s going on specifically.”
Peng Yiming succinctly explained the whole story to him.
After listening, Wan Muqi asked one question: “What’s the relationship between Wei Ting and Lan Yan?”
Peng Yiming was slightly taken aback, typical lawyer, immediately grasping the key point.
He deliberately avoided this point, but still…
Seeing him hesitate, Wan Muqi clicked his tongue, “What, is it inconvenient to say?”
Peng Yiming raised his hand, gesturing, “No, Mr. Wan, it’s just that…”
The man said indifferently, “If it’s inconvenient to say then forget it.”
Worried that if he didn’t spill the beans, Wan Muqi wouldn’t help, Peng Yiming quickly said: “Wei Ting is Miss Lan’s biological father.”
The man was slightly surprised upon hearing this.
“Okay, I understand, give me a copy of the information, and I will have someone look into it.”
“Okay, thank you, Mr. Wan.”
Peng Yiming dared not approach Jiang Yan, mainly because the man’s aura was too strong, making him afraid. So he thought of Wan Muqi as his next option.
Though Mr. Wan was merely a lawyer, Peng Yiming knew that being able to dominate the legal world and become a king among lawyers indicated he was no ordinary lawyer.
After all, his young master didn’t forbid him from seeking outside help.
Utilizing the connections around his young master a bit shouldn’t be an issue.
If resources are available, why not use them?
That night, Wan Muqi had his people report their findings to him.
Peng Yiming couldn’t help but marvel at the impressive efficiency.
But upon hearing that Wei Ting was in the hands of that sickly young master from the Dong Family, his face darkened.
When Xiao Si heard this news, he fell into silence.
He hadn’t expected Dong Junhao to act so swiftly, and more importantly, to be aware of Wei Ting’s existence.
It seems this seemingly frail young man was actually full of black ink!
“Young master, should I take people to snatch him back?” Peng Yiming asked.
Xiao Si: “No need, wait until I return and we’ll discuss it.”
This matter is not urgent, after all, Lan Yan is currently with him.
Even if Dong Junhao wanted to do something, he wouldn’t be able to.
So looking at it this way, Wei Ting isn’t in any immediate danger for now.
“Oh, so what should I say to madam?”
“Are you pig-headed? Just make up any excuse.”
Poor Peng Yiming, unwarrantedly called a pig…
“Young master, I did nothing to offend you. Did you get into trouble with Dr. Lan?”
And come to vent anger on him…
Of course, this he didn’t dare say aloud.
What answered him was the sound of the call hanging up.
“…”
Lan Yan saw him on the phone again, so she asked: “If you have something to take care of, we can head back first.”
Honestly, there wasn’t much fun to have here, with the rain making most outdoor activities impossible.
At the moment, the two were sitting in the hotel’s ground floor restaurant.
Just as Xiao Si was about to speak, they heard a voice.
“Mr. Xiao, Lan Yan.”
The two looked in the direction of the voice and saw Yu Mu.
Yu Mu approached their table, “Why are you guys here as well?”
He thought he might be seeing things when he first entered.
After all, this was City B.
Xiao Si looked at him, smiled, and said: “That’s a question I should be asking you.”
Clearly, the man’s words carried a hint of hostility.
Not wanting the atmosphere to become awkward, Lan Yan quickly interjected: “President Yu, what a coincidence. We’re just here for fun, but didn’t expect it to rain continuously after we arrived.”
As she spoke, she subtly nudged him under the table with her foot, reminding him not to speak out of line.
Xiao Si glanced at her.
Lan Yan, however, kept her eyes on Yu Mu.
“President Yu, are you here on a business trip?”
Yu Mu: “Yes, you could say it’s for business. The Yu Family has a branch office in City B, and tomorrow happens to be the branch’s anniversary celebration, the banquet is here at this hotel.”
Hearing this, Lan Yan nodded, indicating she understood.
Xiao Si, however, inwardly grumbled at Mrs. Xiao, wondering if Ms. Liang had chosen this place on purpose.
Just then, Yu Mu’s assistant came over with a tray of food.
The assistant asked: “President Yu, are you sitting here?”
Yu Mu looked at Xiao Si and Lan Yan, “Do you two mind if I join you?”
Just as Xiao Si was about to speak, Lan Yan pinched his thigh under the table.
She said: “We don’t mind, President Yu, please feel free.”
Xiao Si: “…”
Yu Mu took a seat comfortably.
In truth, Lan Yan saw no reason to avoid anything; she and Yu Mu had nothing between them.
Furthermore, she had made things clear to him, and Yu Mu understood as well.
Soon after, Xiao Si said: “I’m full.”
Upon hearing this, Lan Yan looked at Yu Mu, “Then President Yu, we’ll be going now, take your time.”
After she stood up, someone was still seated on the chair, “Didn’t you say you’re full? Why aren’t you moving?”
With that, she left first.
Xiao Si glanced deeply at Yu Mu and then got up to follow.
Yu Mu watched their departing backs and smiled wryly.
Yet, he could tell that the two had a rather good relationship.
He hadn’t expected someone like Xiao Si to be so obedient to his girlfriend.
The two stood by the elevator waiting.
Lan Yan turned her head to peek at the silent man beside her.
“Are you jealous of President Yu?”
“Why, can’t I be?”
Lan Yan was amused by his justified tone.
She laughed and said: “Of course, if you want to be jealous, by all means, I won’t stop you.”
The man squinted his eyes slightly, “You still find it funny?”
“Why can’t I laugh?”
The next second, the man wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her into his embrace.
Just as she was about to speak, she saw the reflection of Yu Mu in the elevator’s mirrored wall.
Yu Mu and his assistant were heading their way.
Instantly, she understood what he was doing.
So she didn’t bother breaking away.
“You’re staying here too?”
When Yu Mu approached, Xiao Si hugged Lan Yan, looked at him, and casually asked.
He seemed to be asserting his dominance.
Yu Mu glanced at the two, “Hmm.”
Xiao Si smiled faintly: “Your anniversary celebration is quite timely.”
Yu Mu chuckled softly: “Mr. Xiao, you’re reading too much into it, it was arranged half a month ago.”
The topic shifted quickly as Xiao’s conversation often did, jumping to a different subject altogether.
“I heard Aunt Lan is introducing various socialites to you, any that caught your eye? Need your brother here to give you a hand?”
Yu Mu: “…No need to trouble you, Mr. Xiao.”
“It’s no trouble at all, as an experienced brother, I could offer you some pointers.”
“…”
Lan Yan preferred not to engage in their conversation, so she simply pretended not to hear.
