Chapter 416: Gu Dai Got Kidnapped
Translator: _Min_ |
Reluctantly, Su Ting let go of Song Ling.
Gu Dai walked up to Song Ling, her gaze indifferent. Just as he was about to speak, she swiftly kicked his s.h.i.+n, knocking him to the ground. Turning to Su Ting, she advised, “Remember, you’re a public figure. It’s not good for your image to resort to violence so easily.”
Su Ting nodded subconsciously, “I understand.”
Song Ling, stunned, looked at Gu Dai and asked, “What do you mean by this?”
Gu Dai looked at him coolly, “I regret saving you now. Had I known you would slander me like this, I would have left you to your fate.”
Song Ling’s face darkened, “I watched the surveillance footage last night. It was indeed you who took me to the room. How is that slandering you?”
Zheng Ming, who had been watching from the sidelines, finally understood what was being discussed. He stepped forward, “That night, after Chairwoman Gu found you drugged, she dunked you in cold water and called me. I waited until the drug wore off and then carried you to bed before leaving.”
Hearing Zheng Ming’s explanation, Song Ling suddenly remembered something and asked urgently, “But what about the red scratch marks on my body?”
Gu Dai replied, “You scratched yourself.”
Song Ling hadn’t expected this to be the truth. Angered and noticing the onlookers’ stares, he warned coldly, “Not a word of today’s events should be spoken of, or you’ll answer to the Song family!”
With that, he strode away, casting a fierce glance at the crowd.
Meanwhile, Zhao Xuan, waiting in the car, shrank back nervously as he saw the cold fury in Song Ling’s eyes and thought about the news he had to report.
Song Ling’s icy gaze fell on Zhao Xuan, “If you have something to say just say it.”
Startled, Zhao Xuan mumbled, “President Song, I just received news. Jiang Yue has escaped.”
Song Ling clenched his teeth, “What use are you if you can’t even keep track of one person?”
Zhao Xuan stammered, “I…”
Song Ling commanded, “Find her! She must be brought back!”
“Yes,” Zhao Xuan responded quickly.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yue had contacted everyone she could to plot against Gu Dai.
A man reported, “Chairwoman Gu always has a man with her. It’s difficult to approach her.”
Impatient, Jiang Yue rolled her eyes but maintained a gentle tone, “You’re so capable, find a way to lure him away.”
The man hinted at a reward, “It’s doable, but I’ve been working hard. Maybe you could…”
Jiang Yue a.s.sured him, “Of course, but only after the job is done.”
After hanging up, she disdainfully tossed her phone aside and muttered coldly, “As if I’d ever be with such a man. Once this is over, I’ll find a way to get rid of you all!”
The next day, Gu Dai received an urgent call about a problem at the company. However, looking at the unfamiliar number, she narrowed her eyes slightly, realizing that something was amiss.
However…
She still got out of bed, got ready and grabbed her keys, prepared to head to the office. On her way there, she saw a poorly dressed little boy with numerous injuries lying by the roadside.
Gu Dai got out of the car and approached the boy. Just as she bent down, she was struck on the head with a stick. Before losing consciousness, she recognized Jiang Yue from the blurry silhouette.
Jiang Yue shook Gu Dai a few times and, seeing no response, sneered, “I thought you were smart, but you’re just foolish.”
Gu Dai slowly opened her eyes, feeling a throbbing pain at the back of her head, and frowned in irritation.
She had learned how to untie knots in self-defense cla.s.ses but hadn’t expected Jiang Yue to use professional ropes. It would take her some time to free herself.
The driver, unsure, said, “Miss Jiang Yue, I think the woman in the back seat is awake.”
Jiang Yue ordered, “Stop the car.”
After observing Gu Dai and seeing no reaction, Jiang Yue returned to the front seat, scolding, “She’s not awake. Focus on driving, don’t waste time. If we get caught, I won’t let you off.”
The driver, annoyed but acknowledging Jiang Yue as his employer, nodded obediently, “Yes..”
