The staff shivered violently, hesitating to speak, his eyes dodging even more evasively.
“What are you afraid of? I’m just asking a question,” Si Fuqing said with a cold smile. “I’ll ask one more time, where is she?”
“She was, she was taken away by some people,” another staff responded weakly. “They were many; we didn’t dare to stop them.”
Si Fuqing’s fingers tightened around the bubble tea cup.
This was Yu Tang’s first visit to Lin; she had spent her previous eighteen years in the city of Sijiu, hardly ever leaving the Yu family grounds.
With her free-spirited nature, she was unlikely to have provoked anyone.
Without having to think about it, Si Fuqing knew that Yu Tang was probably caught up in some trouble because of her.
Perhaps the kidnappers had seized the wrong person, or maybe they intended to use Yu Tang as leverage against her.
Si Fuqing exhaled slowly. She had no time for petty considerations. “Which direction did they go?”
The staff shakily raised his arm, pointing in a certain direction. “Over there.”
Si Fuqing turned her head, her eyes narrowing slightly, as she picked up her bubble tea and walked emotionlessly forward.
“Young lady, you shouldn’t go,” someone who couldn’t bear to watch any longer spoke up. “Those men earlier looked menacing, bulky with muscle, dressed in black, and reeking of blood. They’re not people we ordinary folks should mess with. ”
“You should… sigh, you should call the police! Or bring out your elders; walking into the lion’s den won’t help you.”
Si Fuqing, wearing a face mask that concealed her features, looked young— definitely under twenty.
Her age made her a cause for concern.
“Very well,” Si Fuqing said, barely controlling the innate violence within her, yet still managing a smile. “Thank you for letting me know.”
She had been rather restrained since her last awakening.
She was not good-tempered and used to get into fights that left her nearly dead.
Until no one could beat her anymore.
Si Fuqing closed her eyes for a moment, feeling the fluctuations emanating from a talisman she had with her. Her brows relaxed slightly.
Thankfully, the talisman had not shattered; that meant Yu Tang was still relatively safe for now.
If anything happened to Yu Tang, she would never forgive herself.
Seeing he couldn’t deter Si Fuqing, the concerned citizen could only stand there, shaking his head.
While Lin was generally safe, such incidents did happen to some extent.
If it were ordinary thugs, it would be one thing; but if sent by some influential family…
The thought was too dreadful to contemplate further.
“Wait!” Another voice chimed in. “Didn’t you find that young lady familiar?” “How can she look familiar? She was wearing a mask, how could you tell?”
“You know, now that you mention it, she does look familiar. Could it be… Yes, is that Si Fuqing? The female celebrity from the Zuo family?”
“It does seem somewhat similar, but I doubt it… She’s quite popular these days; shouldn’t she have assistants and nannies around her?”
The person who had first raised the question immediately posted about it online: “Let the netizens decide; we can’t just sit back and do nothing.”
Meanwhile, at Mudanjiang Courtyard.
Mudanjiang Courtyard was the largest members-only club in the city of Lin.
One could not enter without a membership card.
The architecture was designed around a river, with a peony garden in the middle, hence the name “Peony Garden, River, Courtyard.”
Each Black Gold Card member had a designated private villa with its own garden and swimming pool. The villas were well-equipped for soundproofing and privacy.
Mr. Liu loosened his belt as he walked in through the entrance and noticed a group of people moving further into the venue.
Dressed in suits and leather shoes, they were clearly successful figures in society.
Mr. Liu glanced at them and asked, “Who are those people?”
The manager quickly got up, inquired at the front desk, and returned promptly.
Lowering his voice, he said, “Mr. Liu, they are from the city of Sijiu. It seems that several big shots have arrived, and the Yu family is among them.”
“The Yu family?” Mr. Liu’s eyes lit up. “Go find out what they’re discussing, see if we can get involved.”
The Yu family was the premier wealthy family in the city of Sijiu. Not only in the city of Lin but families in other cities also wanted to build relations with them.
In Sijiu, the Yu family had the final say on most matters.
Mr. Liu knew that making a favorable impression on the Yu family was like obtaining a ticket to enter the circles of Sijiu.
“Of course, Mr. Liu.” The manager inquired once more at the front desk before leaving quickly.
“Let’s go,” Mr. Liu patted his large belly, “First to my residence here.”
His private villa was located at the innermost part of the club, a convenient location for conducting his affairs..
