After Mr. Xiang divorced, the president regretted it
Chapter 31 Crisis 4 lurks
The disappearance of Xiang Mei was like a huge rock dropped into a calm lake, causing a storm and upending the orderly life of the Xiang family. Xiang Yu held the letter tightly in his hand, his knuckles turning white. The few short lines of words on it seemed to be engraved in his heart like a brand, reminding him again and again of his own incompetence and his sister's despair.
Yan Jin was also silent. She understood how much Xiang Mei loved Xiang Yu, and how much courage she needed to make this decision. She walked to Xiang Yu and gently held his hand, conveying silent comfort and support.
"We will find her." Yan Jin's voice was soft but extremely firm.
Xiang Yu turned to look at Yan Jin, his eyes full of bloodshot, fatigue and self-blame intertwined. He held Yan Jin's hand, as if grasping the last straw, "Thank you, Jin Jin."
The two began to carefully study the letter left by Xiang Mei, trying to find clues. The content of the letter was very simple. In addition to the sentence "Yan Jin, you won", there was only a vague hint: "If you want to find me, come to the place I told you before."
"The place she once told you?" Yan Jin looked at Xiang Yu puzzledly.
Xiang Yu closed his eyes and tried to recall every detail about his sister. Suddenly, a picture flashed through his mind. It was a conversation he had with his sister a few years ago. At that time, his sister was in the rebellious period of adolescence and was in a bad mood. She dragged him to an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city to chat.
"I know!" Xiang Yu suddenly opened his eyes, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes, "Follow me!"
He pulled Yan Jin out of the room and drove to the abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city. The factory had been abandoned for many years, surrounded by weeds and a desolate scene. The dilapidated factory building looked particularly gloomy in the afterglow of the setting sun, and the air was filled with a smell of decay.
"Little sister, are you there?" Xiang Yu's voice echoed in the empty factory, but there was no response.
They searched the factory separately, hoping to find some clues. Suddenly, Yan Jin found a piece of blood-stained cloth in the corner of the factory. Her heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition came to her mind.
"Xiang Yu, come here quickly!" Yan Jin's voice trembled a little.
Xiang Yu came over upon hearing the noise, and when he saw the piece of cloth, his expression became serious. He picked up the cloth and carefully identified it. It was clearly a piece of cloth from Xiang Mei's clothes!
"It seems we have come to the right place, but..." Xiang Yu's voice stopped abruptly, and his eyes fell to the depths of the factory, where a dark shadow flashed by... When Yan's father and brother Yan hurriedly arrived, the sky had completely darkened. Yan's father's face was full of anxiety. He grabbed Xiang Yu's arm and said in a trembling voice: "Xiao Yu, what happened to my little sister? Why did she disappear?"
Brother Yan was always calm and composed, but he could not hide his worry at this moment. He patted Xiang Yu on the shoulder and said in a deep voice, "Brother, don't worry, we will definitely find my little sister."
Looking at the two anxious people in front of him, Xiang Yu felt mixed emotions. He knew that the Yan brothers and sisters really cared about his sister, and because of Yan Jin, he gradually integrated into this family. He took a deep breath and briefly told them the whole story.
After hearing this, Yan's father's face turned even uglier. He pointed at the bloody cloth and said bitterly, "This child has been spoiled by us since he was young, so he is so willful and reckless!"
Yan Jin walked forward, gently held his father's hand, and comforted him softly: "Dad, now is not the time to blame yourself. We should think about how to find my little sister."
Brother Yan looked around, frowning, "This place is so remote, why did my sister choose to come here? Moreover, the bloodstains on this piece of cloth..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a strange noise coming from deep inside the factory. Several people immediately became alert. Xiang Yu protected Yan Jin behind him and shouted in a low voice: "Who's there?!"
In response, he heard a chilling sneer. Then, a group of men in black emerged from the shadows, holding weapons and with grim faces. It was obvious that they were not friendly.
"Who are you?" Xiang Yu asked sternly.
The leading black-clad man sneered, his tone full of disdain: "Mr. Xiang, how are you? Your good sister specially invited us to be her guests."
Xiang Yu heard this and immediately understood something. He looked around in disbelief, his voice trembling: "Little sister, is it you? Why are you doing this?!"
In the darkness, Xiang Mei's weak and resentful voice came: "Brother, I hate you! I hate that you abandoned me again and again for this woman! I want you to taste the feeling of losing your loved ones!"
"You're crazy!" Xiang Yu roared, "Do you know who you are working with? They..."
"I know!" Xiang Mei interrupted him, her tone frantic, "As long as I can get revenge on you, I'm willing to do anything!"
Yan Jin looked at the scene in front of her, her heart filled with sadness. She never expected that Xiang Mei's love for Xiang Yu would be twisted into such terrible hatred.
The man in black was approaching step by step. Xiang Yu protected Yan Jin behind him. He knew that a fierce battle was inevitable. He whispered to Yan Jin: "Protect yourself!"
Before he finished speaking, the men in black rushed forward...
The sound of a gunshot broke the silence of the night and interrupted the chaotic attack. Butler Li arrived in time with several bodyguards and surrounded Xiang Yu and others. The moment the gunshots rang out, the men in black were obviously a little panicked. Taking this opportunity, Butler Li and the bodyguards quickly fought back and the two sides started a fierce fight. In the chaos, Xiang Yu always protected Yan Jin behind him to prevent her from getting hurt. However, he was outnumbered and Xiang Yu was scratched on the arm by the men in black with a dagger.
Seeing Xiang Yu injured, Yan Jin's heart shrank suddenly, she rushed forward desperately, and used her body to block Xiang Yu. The sharp dagger cut her clothes and left a bloody mark on her shoulder.
"Yan Jin!" Xiang Yu's eyes were red with anger. He hugged Yan Jin tightly and asked anxiously, "How are you? Are you hurt anywhere?"
Yan Jin shook her head, and said while enduring the pain: "I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me."
Butler Li and his bodyguards eventually repelled the men in black, but they also paid a heavy price. One of the bodyguards was seriously injured and fell in a pool of blood. Butler Li shouted anxiously: "Quick, send the gentleman and the lady to the hospital!"
In the hospital ward, Xiang Yu's wound had been bandaged. He lay on the bed, looking pale. Yan Jin sat beside the bed, peeling an apple for him, and asked softly, "Does it still hurt?"
Xiang Yu shook his head, looked at the wound on Yan Jin's shoulder, and said distressedly: "It's all my fault that you got hurt."
"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm fine, right?" Yan Jin smiled casually, "But you, don't be so impulsive in the future."
Xiang Yu held Yan Jin's hand and said affectionately: "Yan Jin, thank you. If it weren't for you, I would be..."
Yan Jin interrupted him and said, "We are husband and wife, we should support each other, right?"
Hearing the word "husband and wife", Xiang Yu felt bitter. He once thought that he would never fall in love with Yan Jin in this life, but now, he found that he could not leave her.
Yan Jin peeled the apple, handed it to Xiang Yu, and said, "Eat some fruit. The doctor said you need to supplement your nutrition."
Xiang Yu took the apple but did not eat it. Instead, he looked at Yan Jin and asked, "Yan Jin, if... I mean if, we still have a chance to start over, will you..."
"Shh..." Yan Jin put her finger to her lips and interrupted him, "Don't talk yet, the doctor said you need to rest well."
Xiang Yu wanted to say something, but was stopped by Yan Jin's gentle eyes. He had no choice but to close his eyes and pretend to sleep.
Yan Jin looked at Xiang Yu's tired sleeping face, feeling mixed emotions. She knew that Xiang Yu's heart knot had not been untied yet, and he still needed time to accept all this.
In the dead of night, Yan Jin stood up and walked to the window, looking at the flashing neon lights outside the window, her heart filled with worry. Xiang Mei's disappearance was like a huge rock, pressing on her heart, making her breathless.
Suddenly, her cell phone rang. It was Butler Li calling.
"Madam, we have news." Butler Li said in a low and urgent voice, "We have found out that the people who kidnapped the young lady are from a mysterious organization called 'Night Owl'..."
Yan Jin's heart suddenly sank, and an ominous premonition came to his mind...
"Night Owl? How is it related to them?" Yan Jin frowned, with a barely perceptible tremor in her voice. She was familiar with the name Night Owl, a mysterious organization active in the underground world in recent years. They acted ruthlessly and cruelly, and few people knew their true purpose.
"According to the clues we have found, Night Owl seems to have set his sights on something in the young lady's hand." Butler Li said solemnly, "We don't know what it is yet, but what is certain is that the young lady is in danger now."
Yan Jin took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. "I understand, Butler Li, continue to investigate and notify me immediately if there is any news."
After hanging up the phone, Yan Jin returned to the bedside and looked at Xiang Yu's pale face, feeling even heavier in her heart. Xiang Mei's disappearance was undoubtedly making matters worse.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Although Xiang Yu closed his eyes to rest, Yan Jin's expression changes could not escape his eyes.
Yan Jin hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell him the truth. "Butler Li found some clues. The organization that kidnapped Xiang Mei is called 'Night Owl'..."
"Night Owl?!" Xiang Yu suddenly opened his eyes, his expression becoming even uglier, "How could it be them?"
He knew more about Night Owl than Yan Jin. This organization was secretive and ruthless. Once you were targeted by them, there was almost no chance of escape.
"Why did they kidnap Xiang Mei?" Yan Jin asked in confusion.
"I don't know either." Xiang Yu frowned, "Sister Xiang has always been simple, she shouldn't have anything to do with this kind of organization."
"Butler Li said that Ye Xiao seemed to want to get something from Xiang Mei." Yan Jin repeated Butler Li's words.
"Something?" Xiang Yu fell into deep thought. "What could Sister Xiang have that was worth Night Owl going to so much trouble to kidnap her?"
The two were puzzled. At this moment, Yan Jin's phone rang again. It was Yan's father calling. On the phone, Yan's father's voice was extremely anxious, "Jinjin, it's not good, your brother..."
Yan Jin's heart sank, "What happened to my brother?"
"He...he ran away from home!" Father Yan's voice was full of worry and self-blame. "He left a letter saying that he was going to look for Xiang Mei, and also said...he also said that it was because of us that Xiang Mei was kidnapped..."
Yan Jin felt a black screen in front of her eyes and almost fainted. Xiang Yu quickly supported her and asked in a hurried tone: "Yan Jin, what's wrong with you?"
Yan Jin took a deep breath and tried to stay awake, "My brother... went to find Xiang Mei..."
Xiang Yu's face also became very ugly. He knew that the situation was now more complicated. Sister Xiang was kidnapped and brother Yan ran away from home. They had to find them as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
"Butler Li, send someone to find Brother Yan immediately. Also, use all your strength to find out where the Night Owl's base is!" Xiang Yu gave the order without hesitation, his tone was sharp and left no room for doubt.
"Yes, sir!" Butler Li took the order and left.
"What should we do now?" Yan Jin looked at Xiang Yu, his eyes full of worry and helplessness.
Xiang Yu held her hand tightly and said firmly: "Don't worry, we will find them."
