Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 661 - 654: Schemes (Part 9)

Due to Leng Yichen’s special status, the kidnapping of his wife is particularly significant. The kidnappers’ motives are unclear, and they have yet to ask Leng Yichen for ransom or make any other demands. This alone makes the situation very unusual. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Moreover, the fact that the other party has guns indicates that they are not just simple kidnappers. Bai Yiran is in great danger in their hands, and there is a constant risk of them killing her, making this a vicious kidnapping case.

Upon hearing the news, Gao Sheng rushed to the criminal investigation squad immediately. Upon entering, he saw Leng Yichen sitting there smoking, his eyes entirely red, though not with tears, but rather bloodshot.

"Weren’t you quitting smoking?" Gao Sheng sat beside Leng Yichen, taking a cigarette from the pack himself.

Leng Yichen neither looked at him nor replied.

Understanding his mood, Gao Sheng continued, "The higher-ups are very concerned about this case. The director has personally issued a directive to urgently find Bai Yiran." Gao Sheng smiled as he added, "Not finding her quickly isn’t an option; you’re a major taxpayer in the country, Mr. Leng. Many people are counting on you, and if you drop everything, it would be a big deal."

Gao Sheng’s words did not ease the tension; instead, they made Leng Yichen’s eyes grow even colder.

"Based on the information currently available, this is no ordinary kidnapping. It cannot be ruled out that it’s related to someone from the Nawa Group, and it is highly possible that it’s Yao Zhiqing, who is currently at large."

Leng Yichen nodded. He had considered this possibility. By now, he had calmed down from the initial panic. Regardless of the kidnappers’ purpose in abducting Bai Yiran, it at least proved that Bai Yiran was still alive.

The other party has guns, and if they wanted her dead, they could have done so at the café; there was no need to go through the trouble of taking her away.

"Don’t worry. I’ve already consulted the higher authorities. Our anti-narcotics squad will also assist in the investigation of Bai Yiran’s case. Moreover, there is significant pressure from above. We will certainly find Bai Yiran and rescue her as soon as possible."

Seeing Leng Yichen remain silent, Gao Sheng continued, "As for Zhou Baokun, the kidnappers threatened him with his family’s lives, so he was forced into it. So, try not to be too agitated. You almost caused a fatal incident just now! Remember, you are always a lawful businessman. Don’t do anything impulsive!"

Leng Yichen irritably stubbed out his cigarette, glaring coldly at Gao Sheng, "Because of the word ’lawful,’ I’m bound so tightly that I can’t even protect my own loved ones!"

If he weren’t constrained by the law, the things he could accomplish would be far greater!

Gao Sheng’s eyes narrowed, "Leng Yichen, watch what you say! Don’t forget where you are!"

"Where?" Leng Yichen stood up, exuding defiance, "A place I pay to maintain! Now, with Bai Yiran missing, whatever I say isn’t going to be pleasant to hear, so don’t provoke me! Solve the case and find her as soon as possible! Otherwise, I have my own methods! And then, don’t blame me if I tear the sky apart!"

After Leng Yichen spoke, none of the officers present looked pleased. Leng Yichen’s words were practically an insult.

But they also knew that Leng Yichen wasn’t making empty threats. If pushed, he might really do such things.

After speaking, Leng Yichen strode out of the criminal investigation squad.

For the first time, Gao Sheng felt he really didn’t know how to console someone. Not only did he fail to calm Leng Yichen, but he also provoked him further.

Now all they could do was solve the case as quickly as possible!
