C18 Rescue

Tian Yangsheng dragged his tired body to the outside of Luo Jinchi's villa and squatted by the wall. Now he regretted not eating the apples that had always been on the seat in the first place.

He took a deep breath, looked up at the orange evening sky, scratched his mosquito-bitten skin, and waited until nightfall, when he could sneak into the villa.

After waiting for two hours, the lights in the mansion lit up.

Tian Yangsheng stuck his head out and observed the situation inside the room.

Luo Jinchi's villa wasn't as big as Cheng Haonan's, but it was more like a small mansion. Every single piece of furniture inside looked expensive and grand, but when they were put together, they looked even more awkward and tacky.

Climbing to the top floor of the house, he eased open a window on the third floor and dropped to the floor. He leaned against the wall and moved slowly, trying not to make a sound.

The layout of the house was the same on all three floors. Each floor was three or four hundred square meters, with a living room, bedroom, and other basic rooms. It was completely different from Cheng Haonan's room on the first and second floor of the hall.

Tian Yangsheng searched downstairs from the third floor to the first floor. The rooms were empty.

The only thing left was the first floor.

Tian Yangsheng leaned against the wall at the corner of the stairs, hiding in the darkness and peeking his head out slightly, watching every move downstairs.

Luo Jinchi looked very anxious. From time to time, his subordinates would hurriedly whisper something into his ear.

As time passed, his expression became increasingly ugly.

Tian Yangsheng looked at him and felt as if a huge weight had been lifted from his heart. The only thing he could be sure of now was that Luo Jinchi still didn't know if Cheng Haonan was still alive, and Cheng Haonan hadn't announced that he was alive. This meant that his family was at least safe.

Tian Yangsheng's throat moved, and he stared at the situation downstairs. Whenever he had the chance, he would go downstairs and search the rooms. He hoped that they would imprison people in this villa and not outside, like Cheng Haonan, and build a dark basement that seemed to be in a damp forest.

The wait was the longest. Luo Jinchi paced restlessly in front of the sofa, never stopping. The news never came, and he couldn't even find out where Tian Yangsheng was.

Cheng Haonan's house was as heavily guarded as if something had happened. There were more people guarding the villa than usual, and the people sent by Luo Jinchi all returned empty-handed.

From the looks of it, Luo Jinchi guessed that Cheng Haonan might not be dead, but he might be. The Cheng family was trying their best to keep the news under wraps. He had to get rid of Cheng Haonan before Old Master Cheng, who was far away in America, got wind of it.

Tian Yangsheng squatted in the darkness of the stairwell. He was glad that no one had ever come up.

An inconspicuous maid walked out from the passage under the staircase with food and milk in her hands. She lowered her head and seemed a little afraid as she walked into the hall.

However, the maid did not put the food in front of Luo Jinchi. Instead, she hurriedly turned a corner and walked into the passage on the right.

There were other people in this villa, and the food was prepared by someone else.

After a while, the maid returned to the kitchen under the stairs with a clean plate.

Tian Yangsheng's eyes were filled with hostility. He endured his impulse and killing intent and hid in the stairwell. If his guess was right, Little Xiaoyu and Tina must be in one of the rooms in that passage.

Luo Jinchi did not leave for a long time, and Tian Yangsheng's patience was slowly wearing away as time passed.

"Boss, Cheng Haonan's men are outside."

"Chase them away!"

"But they said to hand over Cheng Haonan. Otherwise, they will attack our villa!"

"They can't hold it in anymore!"

Luo Jinchi's face lit up with joy, and a triumphant smile appeared on his face. He strode out of the door. This was good news. Although Cheng Haonan didn't know what was good for him, the fact that the Cheng family didn't have any pillar of support for the time being was good news.

The room became empty. Tian Yangsheng cautiously came out of the stairwell and looked out the window. The people outside seemed to be divided into two groups. The group with more people stood behind Luo Jinchi. The group with fewer people, on the other hand, were at a disadvantage. They shouted without any regard for their lives, but the words they said sounded like insignificant provocations.

Tian Yangsheng no longer cared about these things. He turned around and ran towards the corridor, searching through the rooms one by one. When he reached the last room, Tian Yangsheng swallowed his saliva. As long as he pushed open this door, he would be able to see his brother, sister, and Tina.
