It turned out that she wasn't just being paranoid after all. The disorganized footsteps behind her were likely more than one person... But even if there were two people, they were still just two women.

  The day before yesterday, I told Luo Xia that I wanted to learn Taekwondo, but that's also something for later. Now she's empty-handed and can't even defend herself... Moreover, her phone is still in her bag, and if she tries to get it now, she'll probably be the first to get hurt...

  "Hurry up and run, the car is just ahead... I don't know what these people are doing, but it feels really off. The west district has always had good public security, she knew that even when she was in university, but this time..."

  They just didn't know that this territory was originally the domain of the Tiger Gang, and if they wanted to cause trouble, no one would dare to look for trouble!

  Zi Xiaoguang had never encountered such a thing before, and he was secretly afraid in his heart. He ran forward with his feet splayed out, but both of them were quite depressed. Today, they also wore high heels to help with the interview, so it was okay to walk two steps, but running was particularly tiring.

  The men behind quickly caught up, and indeed there were not just one or two, but five or six of them. Each of their hands held something, and Ji Xiaoli was so frightened that she wanted to scream loudly. A man beside her saw the situation and immediately pulled out a handkerchief with some substance on it from his pocket and stuffed it into her mouth...

  That thing should have had ether, and as soon as it was covered, my head got a bit dizzy. Later on, I just passed out... Qi Xiaoguang was the same, in the last moment when they both fainted, they were still thinking, people say that after eating, they go on the road, are they going on the road after eating too much? But where are they going? Who wants to catch them?

  "Brother Qiu, didn't Big Brother say to only catch one woman? Should we let this one go?" The speaker was a newcomer to the Tiger Gang, still somewhat timid and hesitant in his actions.

  That burly man named Chou Ge, with a deep scar on half of his face, looked like a seasoned thug. He glanced at the two women on the ground and thought for a moment: "Take them all away! If we let them go and something bad happens, no one will be able to bear the consequences!"

  "Yes, this woman with the surname Ji hasn't left her house for the past two days. Even if she does go out, there's always someone by her side. It's rare to see her alone! Now that we've caught her, why bother with so much nonsense? Besides, these two women are quite attractive, and later on..."

  "Haha, let's give brother a thrill!"

  The men exchanged a meaningful and sly smile, everyone understood the role and value of these two women. The one called Chou Ge didn't say anything because he knew the identity of this woman, she was Qin Zhenyang's woman! So if they could get away with it without anyone finding out, that would be best, but if someone were to discover it was them, things might become difficult to settle!

  The amount of anesthetic on the towel was not heavy, and Ji Xiaoli woke up soon. Her hands and feet were tied behind her back. The room was very dark, and she could hardly see anything, but she heard the breathing sound beside her and knew that Qi Xiaoguang had also been caught... She used her elbow to push hard, and Qi Xiaoguang slowly came to, "Xiaoli, is that you?"

  "Well, we're locked up now. The room doesn't have much light, and there's probably only one door, not even a window... I'm afraid it won't be easy for us to escape." Moreover, the ropes binding our hands and feet behind us are thick, tied tightly, without any possibility of struggling free.

  "We're done for! I was just eating so happily, and now someone is sending us on our way. What's going on?! I don't even know who caught us, I don't recall having any enemies... My mother-in-law may not like me, but she wouldn't do something so absurd..." Qiao Xiaoguang muttered to himself, seemingly thinking about whether he had any enemies.

  Ji Xiaoli heard her say that and suddenly remembered. A cold glint flashed in his eyes: "Don't think about it, it's not your enemy, it's mine."

  "Ah...... who is it?"

  "Ji Xuewei! If there's anyone, I can only think of her! The Qin family people may not have a good impression of me, but with Old Man Qin's status, it's not necessary to do something like this... Moreover, you represent the Zhao family, they don't need to..."

  Zi Xiaoguang was shocked, "It's really Ji Xuewei! The previous things were already enough for her to swallow a pot, now she... what does she want to do?! And she caught you, is it to make you know the difficulty and retreat, scare you?"

  Ji Xiaoli shook her head, her expression somewhat cold and stern: "It's definitely not that simple! If she really wanted to scare me, she wouldn't have resorted to kidnapping! I can't guess what she wants to do, but it should be another ruthless move!"

  Qī Xiǎo Guāng remained silent, and Jì Xiǎo Lí knew that if they continued to sit there waiting for death, the outcome might not be good... But what could they do to escape? And where were they anyway?

  "Do you hear that, the sound outside is very loud? Although the voice that was transmitted to this side is not very clear, but I feel that this place should be a ballroom." Ji Xiaoli was guessing, they wanted to escape, first of all, they had to determine where their geographical location was, otherwise it was very likely that after going out, they would be caught again.

  Qī Xiǎo Guāng sighed: "Even if it's a song and dance hall, I don't know which one. Beijing has many song halls and dance halls, nightclubs are the same, Beijing is so big, we don't even know which corner we're in right now."

  "There will always be a way." Ji Xiaoli comforted herself, but this room had nothing, not even a broken glass shard that could be of some use. It was precisely because she couldn't find anything that she felt anxious and restless.

  At this moment, the door was pushed open from outside, and a tall man with his upper body naked walked in.

  At the same time, Qin Zhenyang couldn't sit still either. At 7 o'clock, he made a phone call and the little guy said he wanted to go with Qi Xiaoguang to eat something at Beijing University before coming back, so he agreed...

  It's already ten o'clock now, and he called again, but there was no response at all, just like a stone sinking into the sea, without any news! Something is wrong, it can't be that simple to come back late!

  He couldn't care less, so he directly dialed Zhao Wei's phone number. Zhao Wei had just returned from a dinner party and was still a bit drunk, stumbling as he prepared to go upstairs when his mobile phone rang. He let out a belch and said, "Hello, I'm Zhao Wei, what's up?"

  "Has Qi Xiaoguang come back?"

  "Who's Zhai Xiaoguang? Who is this, coming here and asking about my wife! Zhao Wei furrowed his brow, somewhat displeased: "Who are you? Where can she go if she doesn't come back? Do you have the right to ask about my wife like that? Hang up! Hang up!"

  This drunkard! Qin Zhenyang furrowed his brow, thinking that if this guy were in front of him, he would definitely be beaten up. But at this moment, there was an urgent matter, and he didn't have the time to bother with him continuing to talk nonsense, so he directly got to the point: "If Qi Xiaoguang hasn't returned home yet, you can try calling her phone. If she doesn't answer either, something might be wrong!"

  What's wrong?

  Xiao Guang was waiting for him at home every day, wasn't she? Zhao Wei was a bit skeptical. Although his head was still a bit dizzy, he was startled and sobered up quickly. He quickened his pace and walked towards the bedroom, only to find that the room was empty and his wife was not at home. He couldn't help but pause: "She hasn't come back yet! Wait, I'll use the landline to call her cell phone!"

  Zhao Wei Hang was thoroughly awake this time, his head clear and alert. He dialed the phone number directly, and the call went through, but no one answered. By now, a cold sweat had broken out on his back.

  "What's going on? Is your family member in the same situation?" Zhao Wei suddenly felt a little regretful for having been busy entertaining guests these past few days, not accompanying his wife well, and such a big thing happened, it was actually discovered by someone else... If no one had reminded him, he probably...

  The more I think about it, the more regretful I am. Even if the company really has big projects and big plans, compared to my wife, everything seems less important.

  "I can't give you any explanation for this either. Today, my wife and your family went out together, and in the evening they went to eat at a place near Jingcheng University. Before 7 o'clock, nothing happened, but after that, when I called again, there was no response...I thought it was possible that she had been attacked by someone." Qin Zhenyang wasn't suspicious without reason, he had already basically confirmed it.

  Zhao Wei stroked the cold sweat on his forehead, "Even if we knew it was like this, but who took the person away... We don't have any clues, where can we start looking?"

  On the other end of the phone, Qin San's eyebrows were furrowed coldly, "The west district is still relatively safe, but this time something like this happened, I think it might be related to the Hu Bang!"

  This time, it can only be said that the people under Wang Qing are not doing things carefully enough. If ordinary people take action, they will not choose to do so on their own turf. But they just couldn't find an opportunity to make a move, and this one time, they were standing right in front of them on their west district turf...

  In order to complete the task arranged by Lao Da as soon as possible, those brothers took action...

  They say that there is no free lunch, and to make a move on one's own turf is to invite disaster! Zhao Wei heard this and had an idea, "Let's start with the Hu Bang gang. My dad has some connections with Wang Qiurong, although they're not close, but they can talk. I'll send someone to probe them first!"

  Qin Zhenyang hung up the phone and mobilized his connections in Beijing to start searching for people. Although Qin San's social circle wasn't large, each person was a powerful figure. Finding someone in Beijing was like looking for a needle in a haystack, but with everyone's efforts, they would soon have some leads.

  "What? Little San's wife has been caught by someone? Alright, I know, I'll immediately send someone to investigate and bring out the news as soon as possible! As for the Hu Bang side, I've also arranged for people to be sent. Third Brother, you can rest assured, the person should be able to come out very quickly!" Wei Er Shao's strongest aspect is his network of relationships. If it were just a matter of doing business, that would be one thing, but the Wei family also has its hands in politics, so finding someone isn't difficult.

  "Your wife has been secretly plotted against? Alright! I know, don't worry, I'll arrange for someone to go!" These were the original words of Qi Jin Yun. At this moment, in Qi Jin Yun's study, Qi San Shao, who was being scolded, also heard the conversation and asked: "Whose wife has been secretly plotted against... Big brother, don't be anxious, are you close with her?"

  Zhidao shouted and threw an inkstone over, "If Yangzi hears what you just said, your mouth will be sewn up sooner or later!"

  Third brother?

  When Zijin Dong found out what had happened, he was furious: "Damn it! Which old bastard kidnapped my third sister-in-law? I'll take people over there and wipe out his whole family!"

  And Luo Xia, who was massaging her husband's shoulders, also heard about it. Provincial Party Secretary Zhong Wanhui heard about it from his wife and said, "I used to think that Qin Lao San didn't understand women, but it turns out that what he really cares about is all in the back..."

  Lu Xia smiled and added, "Indeed, it's rare to meet someone who suits his taste... I don't know who is behind the scenes this time... Old Zhong, put the file aside for now and make a call to the police department, ask them to spare some manpower to help find the person!"

  Zhong Wanxi's pen stopped moving, he closed the file in his hand and smiled: "Alright, I'll help Qin Lao San this one time!"

  Qin Zhenyang didn't even bother the Qin family, but this side of the circle had already mobilized everyone. This evening, the young masters and those dandies in the capital stopped for a night, each busy with their own affairs, but they were all looking for one person.

  Less than half an hour's time.

  "Third brother, there's news coming through."
