C5 Chapter 5

City S, downtown.

He sat in the car all night, patting the steering wheel anxiously with an impatient expression on his face. The traffic jam in front was serious. Half an hour had passed, yet it was still stuck there. There were no signs of movement at all.

He had called Maru yesterday, but there was nothing wrong with the results of the investigation. Although underwriting didn't seem to work normally, he only loved to play with things like photography and car racing. He was not interested in studying and the company, but he was also not a useless playboy. He was naturally clear about Maru's ability. It was because he was well aware that he would be angrier when he received such an outcome.

Either Maru didn't explain the real situation, or nothing really happened. However, it was clear that the possibility of the first scenario was even more obvious.

Rather than thinking random thoughts at home, he might as well ask Xie Chi for more details. He made up his mind.

In any case, the traffic jam was now very serious. All night long, he just opened the car door and got out, walking towards the cake on the side of the road. Xie Chi was fond of these sweet things, just in time to bring her some.

When he checked out, the underwriter was keenly aware that someone was following him. Although there were a lot of people coming and going through the city, they wouldn't be like this person and focus their attention on him. It was hard not to find out.

He made use of the time when he paid the waiter to use the reflection from the card to roughly determine the other party's position.

Ye Zichen raised his eyebrows and twitched his mouth playfully all night long. He really wanted to see what this person wanted to do.

Therefore, he pretended as if nothing had happened and walked out the door naturally. However, he did not get into the car immediately. Instead, he turned left and right before walking into a remote alley.

As he moved further and further away from the crowd, the footsteps of the stalker gradually became clearer. He was probably an adult male and his stature could not be considered burly. All night long, he silently judged in his heart.

Once he was far away from the crowd. Deep in the winding alleyway, Cheng Xiao suddenly turned his head and used a side kick to attack his opponent.

Her slender legs drew a beautiful arc in the air as she kicked over. Her chestnut hair flew in the air as she blew, revealing an extremely handsome face.

The other side clearly did not expect Cheng Xiao to be an expert, so he was kicked in panic. However, he quickly came back to his senses, raised his fist, and smashed towards Cheng Xiao's face.

The underwriter calmly stretched out his left hand and grabbed the man's wrist, twisting it in the opposite direction. Instantly, with a crack, the man's arm was dislocated.

The man cried out in pain as he clutched at his wound with his left hand. He gasped in pain.

Ye Zichen took the opportunity to kick him down with a kick. His foot even landed on the opponent's back.

"Who are you? What is the purpose of following me? " Cheng Xiao's gaze turned cold as he asked in a stern voice.

"It hurts, it hurts. Uncle, be more gentle. I was wrong, I won't dare to do it again. " The man begged for mercy.

"Still not speaking honestly?" Cheng Xiao exerted some force on his face, and the man immediately cried out in pain.

"I'll say it!" I say! I'm just looking at how rich you are, and I want to get some money to spend on you. Rest assured, I definitely wouldn't dare! " The man struggled to his feet, kneeling down as he begged for mercy, his tears and sobs flowing in waves. He was as pitiful as he could be.

Chengye narrowed his eyes, the chestnut colored bangs hiding the coldness and contemplation in his eyes.

Chasing Haze had always had a strong sense of danger, and it was because of this function that he was safe from all kinds of natural and man-made disasters.

It was because of his keen intuition that he immediately became alert at the cake shop.

The words of this person should be true. Could it be that he was mistaken? Was it really just for the money? Chengye was somewhat puzzled and thought to himself.

At that moment, the man who was kneeling and begging for mercy suddenly froze. His pupils contracted as he looked towards the back of Cheng Xiao in terror.

All of a sudden, he had a bad feeling. Before he could turn around and dodge, he was hit in the back of the head. His vision went black and he lost consciousness.

"Boss, how do we deal with this person?" Fang Fei held a wooden stick in one hand and a phone in the other.

"Don't worry, take him to the same place. Be polite." A deep, magnetic male voice came through the phone.

"Yes sir!" Fang Fei hung up the phone, picked up the unconscious Chengye, and immediately left. The man who had been beaten up was left kneeling on the ground, staring at the strange development of the situation.

It was an unfamiliar, dilapidated warehouse surrounded by weeds. No signs of human habitation or other representative buildings could be seen.

The freezing temperature of the ground slowly woke him up. He quietly moved his body. Very good, it was not tied up. If not, even if he could find a way to untie the ropes, it would be much more difficult.

He did not immediately stand up. Instead, he secretly surveyed his surroundings. For the time being, he could not act rashly.

Moments later, Cheng Xiao realized that this was just an ordinary old warehouse. There wasn't a single guard inside, and the windows were tightly shut. He tried it all night long, but it would not budge. It was likely that the wooden board had sealed the whole place.

Since the other party had locked him up here so easily, he must be confident that he wouldn't be able to escape even if he wasn't tied up. This should be the outskirts.

As for the other party's goal, it was undoubtedly to get more money. It couldn't possibly be a pervert, right? Thinking of this, all night long, but amused by his own bold idea.

No matter what he wanted, as long as he had a request, he would be safe.

Thus, Cheng Xiao wasn't in a hurry. He leisurely sat cross-legged on the dusty ground. Although he was clearly in a sorry state, under his satisfied attitude, he actually seemed to be enjoying himself on an outing.

After an unknown amount of time, the heavy door finally opened. Outside the door, a glaring light came in. The night had narrowed his eyes, and against the light, he could vaguely make out the outline of a person.

Knowing that his eyes were used to the strong light, he finally saw the person's appearance clearly. At this moment, he was shocked in his heart. The person who came was him?!
