Chapter 191: The Missing Wang Shu (2/2)
“Hello! Our great guest from great China! If you have any matter you want to be done, you can tell me about it. I will do it all for you!” Heng Lujing Ba started to flatter me like a grandson.
I hadn’t thought this place would be under Guo Qing’s sphere of influence. This Heng Lujing Ba was the local gangster, so asking him to use his influence and search for Wang Shu should make everything much easier!
“Heng Lujing Ba, you and your people sure have immense guts!” I said while putting on a malevolent expression.
“AH! This lowly one……” Heng Lujing Ba was stunned by my sudden anger, but he still had a respectful expression as he bent down respectfully.
Guo Qing thought that Heng Lujing Ba had offended me somehow, and his face sank. He immediately raised Heng Lujing Ba forcefully, and said, “B a s t a r d, how the f*** did you dare offend our Boss?”
“……” Heng Lujing Ba really didn’t know what had happened, but his disposition of consistently acting service still made him have a respectful and humble expression.
“Alright!” I waved to Guo Qing who received my hint and put down Heng Lujing Ba, then I said, “Perhaps I made a mistake, and it might not have anything to do with Heng Lujing Ba!”
Heng Lujing Ba kept looking towards me gratefully.
“A friend of mine had been kidnapped and locked in the basement of Yunjing Building, but she was kidnapped by someone else now! I wonder if it was done by one of your people?” I looked into Heng Lujing Ba.
However, there was no change in Heng Lujing Ba’s eyes. It appeared he wasn’t related to this matter, nor were his cronies.
“Kidnapping? My people didn’t do it, but I will go and overturn the entire city to search for your friend! As long as the person is still inside Suwon City, I promise to find them for you!” To get rid of my suspicions, Heng Lujing Ba smacked his chest and promised.
I just nodded. In fact, the act before was just to swindle him and make him work harder. After all, if I don’t give him any pressure, who could guarantee he would work with all his force!
Heng Lujing Ba immediately contacted his gang and ordered them to investigate the matter throughout the city. Time slowly passed, and it was already past midnight, yet there was still no news.
The relation between Ding Wenfeng and Wang Shu wasn’t much, just an acquaintance, so the only reason he worried for her was that she was a beautiful woman. But it was different for me. After experiencing the warmth on the seashore, I don’t regard Wang Shu as just someone I have a favorable impression of, instead, she was now one of my good friends. If she got into trouble, it was impossible for me to stay still and do nothing!
As Guo Qing saw my anxious expression, he wanted to comfort me but didn’t know what to say. He just sat beside me and kept on staring at his phone, waiting for the call from Heng Lujing Ba, prepared to pick it up as soon as the phone rang.
At this time, my brain was churning at maximum speed. Who could it be? Just who would want to kidnap Wang Shu? It could be said that today was the first day I met Wang Shu after arriving in Japan. If the other party was targeting me, then it seemed a bit unreasonable to kidnap her. Not only that, the only enemy Wang Shu had was Sawai Toji because she had always been studying in China since young…
All along, ever since I have been reborn, I have been in control of every situation in China. Situ Liang, Liu Keshen, Lei Xiaolong, and the other enemies were always in the open, and I have never had to worry or be nervous when dealing with all these matters!
However, this enemy hiding in the dark gave me a scare now! It made me feel what real danger is! I have had this feeling since Xu Ruoyun had that accident. Although I was invincible and no one could harm me, the people around me were different. It was impossible for them to contend against an enemy by themselves. That’s why I appointed additional forces to protect my several wives and family every second of the day or night. I even placed the informers of Three-Rock Gang around them for immediate reports if something happened. {TL Note: Xu Ruoyun almost died at the hands of that Li Bao…something. Later, Liu Lei also left his body and brought her soul back and revived her.}
But now, it hadn’t been too long since Wang Shu left me to go home, yet this matter happened. It showed that my awareness of danger wasn’t enough! Now I regretted not taking Wang Shu to her home even after she told me that Sawai Toji was hostile towards her.
