    CHAPTER 401 - PANAX PANICULATUM 70

    Today, Dongfang was a bit uneasy. He didn't know why he couldn't calm down.

    In the morning, his subordinates came to report to him in the ward. After a small meeting, his parents came to visit him in the hospital, and after chatting for a while, they left.

    Looking at the time, he saw that it was already noon. The special nurse had brought him food.

    Dongfang dialed Shen's number, thinking that even though Shen's body was still uncomfortable, the phone should still be open.

    However, Shen Li's phone was still unreachable. The mechanical woman's voice told him over and over that her phone had been turned off.

    He could not sit still any longer, and a sudden foreboding overtook him.

    Although Dong Fang didn't have the same sixth sense as the woman, he subconsciously felt that Shen Cui Long wasn't sick like Old Master Shen had said. Furthermore, when he called the Shen household in the morning and heard Old Master Shen's voice, he also felt that there was a hint of nervousness in Old Master Shen's voice, which was very unusual.

    Thinking of this, Dongfang couldn't sit still any longer. He pulled back the quilt and got off the bed.

    The nurse had just walked into the ward with a bottle of water. Seeing that Dongfang had actually gotten out of bed, she was so shocked that she quickly put the water bottle on the table and ran over to him to support his arm. CEO Dongfang, why have you gotten out of bed? Didn't I say that you can't get out of bed now? One week from now …

    Without waiting for the nurse to finish her words, Dongfang turned to the nurse and said in a deep voice, Bring me my clothes!

    The special nurse looked up hesitantly at Dongfang's anxious eyes. CEO Dongfang, where are you going? You can't be discharged, the doctor said …

    Dongfang didn't wait for her to finish speaking before she went to the clothes rack to take off her clothes. Then, she quickly went to the bathroom to change. There was a sharp pain coming from the ribs on her chest.

    He took a deep breath, pressed his hand to the wound on his back, then pulled open the door and went out.

    The nurse followed him in a panic.

    CEO Dongfang, CEO Dongfang, don't leave the hospital. If something happens to you like this, how am I supposed to explain …

    Dongfang strode into the elevator, leaving the nurse's voice behind.

    He didn't have a car in the hospital, but an ambulance brought him there. At the door, he caught a cab and drove directly to the Shen Mansion.

    A taxi is not allowed to drive in at the door of the house, so he paid for it and hurried off.

    The concierge recognized Dongfang and invited her in without saying anything further. He also sent a security guard to drive her to the mansion in a sightseeing car.

    Dongfang was about to get on the carriage when he suddenly stopped and turned around to ask the doorman, When did Miss come back last night?

    The doorman scratched his head, Miss didn't seem to be back last night, wait a moment, I'll take a look.

    The concierge switched on his computer and quickly browsed through. Then he said to Dongfang with certainty, Mr. Dongfang, Miss didn't come back last night!

    So she came back this morning?

    No, from last night until now. Miss never came back. I've never walked through the front door.

    Then is there any other side door to your Shen family?

    The gatekeeper shook his head, There are side doors, but they are not opened all year round, so it is impossible for our Miss to leave from there.

    In other words, Shen Laiyuan hasn't returned to the Shen family yet.

    Then why did he call in the morning when Old Master Shen said that Shen Lo was resting in his room?

    Dongfang's brow furrowed, and his palms began to sweat a little.

    He was almost certain that something had happened to Shen. He stepped into the sightseeing car and ordered the security guards to drive faster.

    When he reached the gate of the mansion, he jumped off the car and quickly walked into the mansion.

    As soon as he entered, he felt that the atmosphere wasn't right and sat on the sofa.

    Opposite him was Nightfall. His long legs were crossed over each other, and a cigarette was burning in his hand. However, he didn't smoke, allowing the smoke to rise up above his head.

    Old Master Shen was not present, nor was Madam Ye and Mr. Ye.

    Seeing this, Dongfang slowed down. Everyone turned around when they heard the sound of footsteps.

    Dong Fang then walked over and greeted, Madam Ye, Mister Ye.

    It's coming from the east … Madam Ye nodded. I heard that you're injured? You ran away from the hospital? "

    Where is the distance? Dong Fang's voice suddenly became hoarse with an indescribable nervousness. He raised his head and glanced at the floor above. Grandfather said that travelling this far isn't very comfortable. I'll go upstairs to see her.

    Mrs. Ye was about to stop him, but he shook his head.

    Dongfang quickly walked up the stairs. He walked to the door of Shen Lu's room and gently pushed it open. He walked straight into the bedroom.

    But the bed was empty, and the covers were neatly folded, not like the bed he had slept in the night before.

    She hadn't come back at all. Why did her grandpa lie to her? Could it be that something had happened to her?

    Xia Chen, why didn't you just tell him and ask him to go somewhere empty? Madam Ye looked upstairs and said worriedly, He's still injured.

    Let him see it for himself, or he won't give up.

    Nightingale put the cigarette in her hand into the ashtray and extinguished it, then she coldly looked at Shen Nian.

    When Ye Xiu's tired gaze landed on Shen Nian, he shivered. His hand subconsciously tightened its grip on the sofa's armrest.

    He had been trapped here all night, refusing to sleep, refusing to drink, not even to smoke, and instead letting himself smell the smoke endlessly.

    The living room was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard on the floor. In this extremely depressing atmosphere, the chaotic and fast footsteps from the east were especially abrupt.

    Where is the distance? Is something wrong with her? Dongfang Bu walked up to Nightmare and asked him directly.

    Actually, he was only asking for confirmation. He was now completely certain, because there was nothing that could make Nightingale and her family appear here at the same time.

    He was kidnapped far away. Last night at 1 o'clock in the morning, Grandpa Shen received a call from the kidnapper, but the kidnapper didn't ask for anything. He just hung up the phone. Ye Wen raised his head and spoke to Dongfang in a voice that could barely be heard.

    What did you say? You were kidnapped so far? His guess finally came true. Dong Fang clenched his fist, a trace of coldness sliding across his heart. His voice sounded so tight and difficult that he couldn't even hear what he was saying right now: How could someone kidnap us from so far away, when, and where?"

    The preliminary guess is that it's in the hospital parking lot. Last night at midnight, she left your hospital room and was attacked when she went to the parking lot to get her car. Her car door was open, but someone kidnapped her before she could get in. There are traces of people being dragged on the ground, so we can be sure that they had already passed out. They must have used some kind of anesthetic.

    The voice was steady, but there was no wave of anger and impetuosity in it.

    Shen Lo Long had been kidnapped the night before after he left his sickroom, but now …

    Dongfang raised his hand and subconsciously looked at his watch. Nine hours had passed already.

    Within a few short seconds, the Eastern brain was completely blank, and he didn't know what to feel. Suddenly, everything became very numb, and the blood in his veins stopped flowing.

    He turned his head to look at Shen Nian who was sitting on the sofa with his head lowered. He could see the unwillingness on Shen Nian's face, but Mrs. Ye and Mr. Ye's eyes were filled with anger when they looked at him.

    Dongfang stopped and walked in front of Shen Nian after two seconds. He grabbed Shen Nian's collar and pulled him out of the sofa. He almost poked Shen Nian's face with his nose. Where did you go from here?

    What do you all mean by that? One or two of them poured dirty water on me? I've already told them yesterday that the long journey is none of my business!

    How is it none of your business? Yesterday, you were stripped of your position by Grandpa Shen and were kidnapped a few hours later.

    I said it wasn't me! Put me down!

    Dongfang held Shen Nian's collar so hard that he almost lifted Shen Nian's feet off the ground.

    Shen Nian was not as tall as Dongfang, and when he looked into Dongfang's angry eyes from the ground, he was very nervous.

    Dong Fang, quickly put me down! It has nothing to do with me! I've been brought here since the early hours of last night. I can't sleep or eat, do you want to starve me? If you want to trap me here, you have to have evidence. Even the police have to give evidence. If you don't have evidence, you have to let me go within 48 hours!"

    Okay, 48 hours after I can't find evidence, I'll let you go. A tired voice came from behind them, You've already been here for seven hours. There's still 41 more hours.

    Dong Fang was still holding on to Shen Nian's collar. When Madam Ye saw blood seeping out from the back of her shirt, she cried out in alarm, Dong Fang, your wound is broken! Let go now!

    Mr. Ye also hastily pulled Dong Fang's hand away. Ye Wen glanced at him and ordered the butler, Get the family doctor to take a look at him!

    Yes! The butler nodded and hurried to make the call.

    Aiya! I heard you've injured your ribs after losing so much blood. You haven't even healed yet and you're already using so much strength!" Madam Ye looked eastward with concern.

    Dong Fang touched his shirt and saw the blood stains all over his palm.

    He bent down and took a few pieces of paper from the tissue box on the tea table as if he didn't care too much about it, and then wiped the blood off his hands.

    His back was in extreme pain, but at this moment, he couldn't care less.

    He stared at Shen Nian, the anger in his eyes almost spewing out and burning Shen Nian to ashes.

    Just then, the butler led the family doctor in. The doctor saw the blood stains on Dongfang's shirt and couldn't help but frown. Why is there so much blood? Did the wound open? Let me take a look in the room upstairs!

    Dongfang followed the doctor into the room. He untied his shirt and laid on the sofa. The doctor carefully examined the wound: The wound was indeed split open. One of your ribs was broken, and the broken ribs punctured your skin from inside out. Did you move too much just now so you broke the wound? I need to hurry up and sew up your wound. I'll call the ambulance immediately.

    Don't call. Didn't you bring any tools?

    What tools? the family doctor asked.

    Of course it's a tool for stitching wounds. Did you bring a needle and thread?

    I do, but I don't have anesthetic with me!

    There's no need to use the anesthetic. I'll just sew it like that!

    The doctor's face turned pale. Your wound is very long, and your ribs are also injured. It will be very painful to sew them up like this.

    I'm not afraid! If it hurts, I'll let you stitch it!" said Dongfang impatiently, lying down on the sofa.

    The doctor hesitated for a moment. Then I'll go downstairs to get the medicine box. Wait a moment …

    CHAPTER 402 - PERICARPIUM CHINENSE L 71

    The doctor hurriedly went downstairs to get the medicine box. Madam Ye quickly asked, Are you alright?

    The doctor frowned. The wounds are all broken. I don't know if anything is wrong with the bones. I said I was going to the hospital, but the CEO of the East said he wanted me to stitch his needle here. "

    Sewing needle? Do you have anesthetic?

    The doctor shook his head. Why would I bring anesthetic? Of course not.

    How are we going to stitch without anesthetic?

    That's what I said! The doctor stamped his feet and sighed, But since CEO Dongfang insists, there's nothing I can do about it.

    Madam Ye frowned and looked back at him worriedly. Chen, what do you think we should do?

    Just let him be. Dongfang is very stubborn, even if you get him to the hospital, he will still run out.

    I didn't expect the East to be so concerned about the long-distance travel. If the long-distance travel isn't kidnapped, then I must arrange for a marriage between them.

    Mrs. Ye sighed heavily.

    The doctor came up the stairs to his room, and Dongfang lay on the sofa waiting for the doctor to come and sew up his stitches.

    The doctor fearfully opened his shirt and used iodine to wash the wound. Then he held a needle and thread in his hand and asked again, CEO Dongfang, no anesthetic really hurts.

    I'll let you sew! Dongfang frowned and said impatiently.

    Since Dongfang said so, the doctor had no choice but to stick the needle in. After a dozen long stitches, Dongfang didn't even make a sound.

    After the doctor had finished sewing, Dongfang sat up and called his assistant, I'm at the Shen household right now. Bring me a clean shirt, and I've been kidnapped far away. If you use all the connections you have, you have to find the long distance as soon as possible.

    As she walked out of the room, Madam Ye immediately went up to him and looked at his back with concern. Dong Fang, are you alright?

    Dong Fang shook his head. It's nothing. It's just that the wound is split open.

    Dong Fang, I can understand your feelings, but you can only travel far by taking care of your body!

    Dong Fang's gaze fell on Shen Nian. Perhaps he could feel the cold aura emanating from Shen Nian's body, but Guang Shen Nian shifted his body unnaturally.

    At this time, the bell in the living room had already chimed ten o'clock. Yesterday night, you brought me here at one o'clock. Now, you aren't even giving me any saliva to drink, Mrs Xu! Mrs Xu!

    Shen Nian shouted, Is the breakfast I told you to prepare ready yet? Are you trying to starve me to death?

    Breakfast was naturally already prepared and was already in the dining room. However, without the tired consent of the night, it was impossible for Mrs Xu to give it to Shen Nian to eat.

    All the servants in the Shen family understood what this Shen Nian meant to the Shen family. Every time he came to the Shen family, Old Master Shen would always be angered to the point of going mad.

    He coveted the Shen family's property, and now that the young mistress was kidnapped, even the servants thought that it was related to Shen Nian.

    Seeing Mrs Xu standing at the living room door with her hands hanging down and not saying anything, Shen Nian, who was holding back his anger, took this opportunity to say, You two just don't put me in your eyes one by one! How many mister Shen are there in the Shen family? An old mister Shen and another is me! Why is it that my words are so useless now?

    Ye Wen was tired of listening, and he opened his mouth slowly, but every word he spoke was loud and clear, Chief Shen, have you heard of a suspect who was brought to the police station by the police and was still entertained?

    What do you mean, am I a suspect?

    Yes, you are the suspect … Didn't you say that the police only have the authority to detain the suspect for 48 hours? Therefore, I intend to keep you here for 48 hours, no more than an hour. Yes, but you're not free for 48 hours. You can't drink, you can't eat, you can't sleep, you can't go to the bathroom."

    What do you mean you are violating human rights! Shen Nian jumped up.

    Ye Wen shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he was a human rights offender. What could Shen Nian do to him?

    If he knew he wouldn't come to the Shen family even if he was beaten to death, Shen Nian would've thought that they wouldn't be able to do anything to him. But he didn't think that they would put him under house arrest here.

    Dongfang paced anxiously in the doorway of the living room, waiting for a reply from his men.

    At this moment, Nightingale walked over and patted on Dongfang's shoulder. Let's go to the study room to have a chat!

    Dong Fang glanced at him for a moment, then followed him into the study.

    It was a cloudy day, and the study room was dark. The light could see each other's expressions, but it was not particularly bright.

    Since last night, I've had my people check out all the people I've been in contact with since then. After sitting down on the sofa, Nightingale spoke up.

    How is it? Dongfang immediately asked, Did you find anything?

    This time, Shen Nian is smarter than we thought. I didn't manage to find anything. I've already got his call recorded, but there's nothing suspicious.

    He must have had more than one phone call.

    I checked everything, including his home company and his private phone number, but I couldn't find anything.

    You mean, it's possible that it wasn't Shen Nian who did it?

    Impossible. I'm sure it was him, but I can't find any evidence right now.

    Then if you can't find him, you'll let him go after forty-eight hours?

    Am I a policeman? I'm not a police officer, so there's no 48 hours difference between us.

    Dong Fang irritably turned around to look at the dark sky outside the window. There was not even a hint of sunlight, it was about to rain soon.

    He pursed his lips into a straight line, and his pair of deep eyes seemed to be sprinkled with thick ink; it was terrifyingly dark.

    There was only a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

    Looking at Dongfang's straight back and the big patch of blood on his white shirt, Ye Wen opened his mouth and said, Calm down. I don't believe Shen Nian has the ability to hide so much that even we can't find him.

    Eastwind leaned against the window as he muttered to himself. It was unknown what he was talking about.

    When Ye Wen walked over, he heard Dongfang unexpectedly say, Long distance, if you come back safely, I guarantee that I won't harass you anymore, and I promise that the man you love will immediately marry you!

    Ye Wen couldn't help but laugh. He leaned against the window and looked at the gloomy face of Dongfang. The man you just mentioned is someone you love from afar. Could he be me?

    Dongfang's gaze moved to Ye Wen's tired face, and his gloomy gaze instantly turned stormy, Then who do you think is there? You've always been around a woman who loves you or doesn't you realize it?"

    Dongfang really didn't understand. Mr. Ye and Madam Ye had rushed over during the long journey, and Ye Wen had also rushed over at the very first moment. He hadn't even taken a sip of water since then, so it was likely that he was paying a lot of attention to the long journey.

    But why would she refuse to give her marriage even when she knew she was pregnant?

    Dongfang Xi suddenly walked over to Ye Wen. Ye Wen thought that he was going to grab him by the collar, but he did not. It was rare for Dongfang Xi to be so calm in front of Ye Wen this time.

    The light in Ye Wen's eyes flickered, and his lips formed an almost imperceptible smile. Can I trouble you to marry her? Can this kind of thing be troublesome?"

    You know that she likes you from afar, and you also know that she has your child. Your whole family came all the way here, but why aren't you willing to give her a marriage?

    I married her, didn't you?

    It wasn't me that I loved. Originally, I wanted to marry her and give him a family, but she didn't love me. Dongfang looked out the window, his long, curling eyelashes hiding a faint regret.

    It's fine for an Overlord to force his way in. Last time, I heard that your tone wasn't that firm, so it's not impossible for you to exert yourself.

    I'm trying and I can't make her love me, and I don't need a marriage without love, so you're the only one who can give it to her. Director Ye, Dongfang Xi suddenly looked at him very sincerely. When we come back from far away, you must marry her!"

    I definitely won't marry her. Ye Wen told the east indifferently.

    Initially, Nightingale had wanted to find an opportunity to tell him about the true relationship between him and Shen Lo, but she hadn't thought that Shen Lo would suddenly have an accident. At such a critical juncture, she couldn't say anything about it.

    Because he was not sure who had kidnapped him, he knew that everyone was a suspect in his eyes. Of course, the possibility of it being Dongfang was small, but it did not mean that he would not be able to tell them the truth about his relationship with him.

    He saw that Eastern's eyes were immediately filled with anger, and that hand on his shoulder was also instantly filled with power, wanting to crush his bones.

    Ye Wen frowned slightly, forcefully stopping Dong Fang's hand that was holding his shoulder. He then pressed it down tightly, looked into Dong Fang's eyes and said: You're still wounded, so it's best if you don't move about too much. Let's talk about everything after you've traveled a long way back! It's still too early to say anything!

    He turned and walked out of the study. He heard a dull thump from the room, the sound of Eastern's fist on the wall.

    Nightingale lowered her eyes and walked into the living room.

    Thunder rumbled outside, and soon it would rain.

    He could even hear the thunder outside as he stuck to the wall. It seemed that the wall was very thin.

    She tapped it with her fingers, as if it were made of iron instead of a wall.

    Then what exactly is this place? It was very possible that it was a warehouse built out of iron. Shen Lo had seen some vegetables inside that hadn't rotted away yet. Who was the one that kidnapped her and left her here?

    Ever since that person appeared last night, no one else appeared for dozens of hours. Shen Lo's stomach was rumbling with hunger, and she even felt the child restlessly and anxiously turning over in her stomach.

    She could not eat it, but the child could not. She had to escape from this place!

    Her hands were tied, however, not with ordinary ropes, but with plastic straps. They were extremely strong, and Shen Kui knew that if he used brute force, not only would he not be able to break free, he would even injure his hands.

    She used all her strength to lean against the wall and stand up. Step by step, she moved to the door.

    After dozens of hours of not eating anything at all, she had no strength left in her. She leaned against the wall and slowly squatted down again. The most important thing right now was to conserve her strength.

    Ten hours passed. Another ten hours passed. Although there were no windows, Shen Lo could still feel that it was now night.

    The surroundings were so quiet that Shen Cui Yuan even suspected that he was locked inside until she starved to death. No one would appear, and the person who tied her up wanted her to die here.

    Shen Li leaned against the cold iron wall with his eyes closed. For some reason, a clear and clean smile had always appeared in her mind.

    CHAPTER 403 - PERICARPIUM 72

    At this moment, the Shen family had become a prison for Shen Nian. Although the living room of the Shen family was magnificent, the aroma of the restaurant wafted into the living room, but Shen Nian could only smell it.

    He had been at the Shen household for over thirty hours, and during that time he was not allowed to sleep.

    The moment he closed his eyes, he woke him up. He was not allowed to drink water or eat anything. He was even not allowed to go to the washroom.

    Shen Nian was full of resentment, but he didn't dare to say it out loud. He could only throw a tantrum at the butler and the rest.

    Hurry up and bring me the water, you want to thirst me to death?

    It was because Ye Wen wasn't in front of him that he dared to act so arrogantly.

    At this time, Old Master Shen slowly walked out of the elevator with the Dragon-Headed Cane. He forcefully paused his walking stick, Are you here to be a guest? Or do you regard yourself as the owner of this house?

    Uncle! Old Master Shen did not leave the room. Because his body was not feeling well, he stayed in the room. When he saw Old Master Shen walk out, Shen Nian hurriedly jumped up from the sofa to greet him.

    Uncle, look at how Ye Xiu has always treated me like a criminal. After so long, he didn't even give me any time to drink my saliva. Didn't he want to take my life?

    If you don't want your life, then we won't want yours. Old Master Shen leaned on his walking stick as he walked towards the sofa and sat down.

    Shen Nian stood in front of Old Master Shen, Why do you guys still not believe me? I already said that my eldest niece was kidnapped by someone, it has nothing to do with me. You guys should be searching the entire world right now, not suspecting me here!

    Shen Nian! Old man Shen raised his head and stared at him with bright eyes, staring so hard that Shen Nian didn't know where to look.

    You really have grown up. I didn't know you had such great ability, to be able to hide so many miles without leaking any information. I promised you 48 hours before I let you go, that is my business. If you don't hand over the distance, don't you like the Shen family? Then you can stay here for the rest of your life and not go anywhere!

    Uncle, aren't you trying to force me? Shen Nian felt wronged, I told you that the distant disappearance had nothing to do with me, you just don't believe me …

    It doesn't matter to me now. You, Shen Nian, can be considered a man who eats both black and white in Mo City. Tell your men to come all the way here!

    That's easy to say … Shen Nian nodded his head, My eldest niece has been kidnapped by someone. As an uncle, I will definitely spare no effort in finding her. How am I supposed to find her now that I'm trapped here?

    Old man Shen threw him a phone and he picked it up.

    Under the gaze of Old Master Shen, Shen Nian had no choice but to make a long face as he called his subordinates.

    The matter of Shen Lai being kidnapped had been kept a secret, and the media outside had no idea about it.

    Mr. and Mrs. Ye were staying at the Shen household. Firstly, they wanted to accompany Old Master Shen. Secondly, they wanted to be kept up to date.

    He didn't often stay at the Shen household. He had to go to the company and busy himself with Shen.

    Occasionally the East would come, but only to ask if there was any news of Shen Lu, and then leave in a hurry.

    Mrs. Ye was very worried about his injuries because he had only been admitted to the hospital on the day of Shen Lu's accident, but he had been discharged the next day.

    Lady Ye could not help but be worried as she watched him walk around with a thick layer of gauze.

    Shen Nian was still in the Shen family, so 48 hours had already passed. If Old Master Shen didn't let him go, then Shen Nian wouldn't be able to do anything. However, he could only provide him with a normal diet, otherwise, he would really starve to death.

    His mouth was rather hard, yet he still didn't say anything. It really made Old Master Shen look at him in a new light.

    It was almost midnight when Dongfang Xi hurried into the Shen family. His face carried a trace of inexplicable joy and a spirit that he hadn't seen in a long time.

    Old Master Shen was about to go rest when he saw the expression on Dongfang Xi's face. He immediately asked, Did you get news from afar?

    Yes sir! I have received the news: I am now at an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the neighboring city. I will go there immediately!

    Old Master Shen was overjoyed, Really? Is this news reliable?

    Very reliable! Dongfang Xi helped Old Master Shen to let him sit on the sofa. This news is absolutely reliable. I just came to notify you guys and then I'll immediately rush over.

    Ding Han, who was standing behind Ye Wen, could not help but ask doubtfully, But the news we found out...

    Ding Han did not finish his sentence before he touched Ding Han's hand, glancing at Shen Nian who was sitting on the sofa at the side.

    Shen Nian had a strange expression on his face. He looked as though he had been relieved of a heavy burden, but also a little perplexed.

    Then I will go with you, he said to the east.

    Alright. Dongfang nodded, Grandfather, then just wait for my good news!

    Just as Dongfang turned around, Shen Nian quickly said, If that's the case, then it has nothing to do with me. Since you guys found out where the long distance was, then you must have found out who kidnapped them, right?

    Dongfang looked hesitantly at Shen Nian, then turned to look at Old Master Shen, Grandpa Shen, this really has nothing to do with you.

    Right!? I said yes! Shen Nian hurriedly said: I already said it has nothing to do with me, you don't believe that I have to be locked up here! Now that we have news from afar, you can let me go!

    Old Master Shen glared with both eyes wide. What are you so anxious about? You can scram whenever you're right in front of me. Do you think I want to take another look at you?

    But I've been gone for the past few days, and I'm not here either. The company is in chaos.

    No one in the company is better than you were before! Old Master Shen roared at him.

    Dongfang glanced back at them and then walked out of the hall.

    Ye Wen also followed closely behind. The two of them got into the car parked at the door and drove out of the Shen family's gate.

    As the car sped along the road, Nightingale, who had been sitting by the window and looking out the window without saying a word, suddenly opened her mouth. You actually didn't hear any news about the long journey, did you?

    Dongfang, who was sitting in the first passenger seat, turned his head to look at her. Anxiety, unease, and even gloominess flowed through his eyes.

    Yes, he had no news of Shen Lu. Shen Du seemed to have disappeared from this world.

    It was very difficult to find someone or something in the Mo City that even Ye Jiu and Dongfang Wenyi could not find, but this time, they could not do anything about it.

    He understood what was happening in Dongfang Wenyi's eyes, so he didn't need to answer. He slowly spoke, You're doing this so that Shen Nian can lower his guard and let him go?

    Yes. Dongfang said, If they keep trapping Shen Nian like this, then they won't contact him. The kidnappers haven't called for so many days, which means their leader hasn't given them any orders yet.

    So you also believe that person must be Shen Nian?

    I'm sure it's him, but I can't find any evidence against him.

    So you wanted grandpa to let him go and let him show himself.

    Dongfang nodded. I think so, but I don't know if this will work.

    The plan is correct, but I'm worried that we won't be able to make it that far.

    As soon as the words left Ye Ci's mouth, Dongfang immediately retorted, She's strong enough to travel all the way here. She'll definitely be fine.

    "Do you have any idea what their goal is when they are tied up like this? It definitely wasn't money. If it was money, they would have already called. If the person who kidnapped Shen Du Lu is really Shen Nian, then what do you think his purpose is?

    Dongfang already thought about it, Shen Nian shouldn't be that stupid. He tied Shen Li up for a hostage to exchange for a stake in the Shen Corporation, I'm afraid the Old Master will skin him alive.

    Then there was only one possibility. Dongfang gritted his teeth and said slowly, He hid all the way to a place that nobody else could find, and then deliberately trapped her to death!

    That's why I feel that your plan won't work. It's very likely that Shen Nian won't let them contact him. He just wants them to capture her and leave her there to fend for herself!

    Dongfang clenched his fist and slammed it on the window. The driver trembled in fear because the force Dongfang displayed almost shattered the bulletproof glass into pieces.

    We can't just sit here and wait for death, he said wearily as he leaned against the back of the car.

    Shen Nian was finally released by Old Master Shen. It was because it was Ye Xiu who called back to say that they had gone to the neighboring city. There was news that spread far and wide, and with Shen Nian shouting at the side, Old Master Shen thought for a while before letting him go.

    Mo City is only so big anyway, and he can't run away from Shen Nian.

    Shen Nian walked out of the mansion and relaxed. He lit up a cigarette, leisurely took a puff, and sat in the car by the door.

    Although he'd suffered a lot in the past few days, he knew that they hadn't been able to catch a hold of him, otherwise they wouldn't have let him go.

    They let him go and they won't get what they want.

    Shen Nian was not stupid, he had planned for this day for a long time.

    So now, he couldn't afford to make any mistakes. He knew how many people were watching him from behind, but it wouldn't be that easy to get a hold of him either.

    He leaned back in his chair. He had suffered a lot in the Shen family these days, and he was tired and tired.

    Just as he was about to squint, he suddenly hit the brakes. He sat on the back seat without his seat belt on and almost rushed to the front from the back.

    Shen Nian grabbed the chair in front of him and cursed the driver, What are you doing? Are you blind? I just fell asleep!

    Mister Shen. The driver was still in shock. He wanted to say something but hesitated and pointed to the front.

    Shen Nian narrowed his eyes and looked ahead. Two people were standing in front of the car.

    Shen Nian's eyes widened. When he saw who the two people in front of him were, his brain exploded.

    Before he could react, the car door was opened by someone, who directly dragged him down by his collar.

    What for? Shen Nian struggled. Shouldn't you be on your way to find my niece in the neighboring city?

    Then you still have to lead the way.

    The people who came were Nightingale and Dongfang. Dongfang grabbed Shen Nian by the collar and dragged him to his car. He opened the door, kicked him in, and then sat beside him.

    Shen Nian looked at him, terrified. What are you doing? I don't know where my first niece is in Lin City either.

    He got into the cab and drove himself.

    The two of them did not say a word as the car drove away. Shen Nian looked around in panic, his eyes filled with panic.

    Old Master Shen had just released them from the Shen family when they were cut off by Ye Xiu and Dongfang Wenyi.

    He said with a sad face, Where are you two taking me? I already said that my eldest niece's matter had nothing to do with me. If you do this, I can just call the police and tell them that you kidnapped me!

    Do you dare call the police? Dongfang Yin spoke in a sinister manner.

    CHAPTER 404 - PERICARPIUM 73

    Nightingale drove the car to a certain place, and then got out of the car. Dongfang pulled Shen Nian's collar and pulled him out.

    Pushing against the ground, Shen Nian cried out in pain as he looked at the two approaching him. With both hands on the ground, he took a few steps back in fear and asked worriedly, What are you two up to?

    The two of them did not say a word. Shen Nian looked around and saw that the place was empty.

    They had dragged him out into the wilderness, and there was not a single insect in sight, let alone a human being.

    The two of them were tall to begin with, so standing in front of him was quite intimidating.

    Dongfang seemed to be holding something, then he slowly unfurled it.

    Shen Nian was shocked to discover that it was actually a long whip. His voice trembled as he said, Dong Fang, what are you trying to do? I told you not to mess around...

    Dongfang raised his whip and lashed out at Shen Nian without a word. Shen Nian let out a heart-wrenching cry.

    Dongfang's whip must have used a lot of strength to make him cry and howl.

    What are you doing? Dong Fang, I'll call the police! Don't think that the Yao Shun Conglomerate is able to cover the sky with one hand in Mo City, and you also have fatigue. After all, Shen Lo's actions have nothing to do with me. She's my eldest niece, how could I …

    Before Shen Nian could finish his sentence, Dong Fang swung his whip again.

    As for Zhang Ye, he was standing on one side with one hand holding his elbow, while the other hand was lighting a cigarette. He was leisurely smoking it between his two fingers, as if he was watching a very good show.

    After a few whips from Dongfang, Shen Nian felt like his skin had been ripped open.

    He crawled on the ground for a long time, sobbing. He stretched out his hand and touched his buttocks, feeling the wetness in his palms. He held it in front of him and looked at it under the moonlight to see how full of blood was.

    Shen Nian howled: Murder, murder! I'm going to be beaten to death! "

    Dongfang didn't care what he said, he pretended not to hear Shen Nian's howl.

    He raised the whip high up and whipped again. The tail of the whip hit Shen Nian's face, immediately leaving a deep bloody wound.

    Just like that, over a dozen whips from the east lashed out at him. Shen Nian lay on the ground, barely able to muster his strength to even cry out as he lay on the verge of death.

    After he finished smoking, he threw the cigarette butt onto the ground and held Dongfang's hand. You're tired. Rest for a bit, I'll do it.

    He felt his hair stand on end, but he couldn't open his mouth now. He could only lie on the ground and beg, Stop hitting me, stop hitting me, if you keep hitting me I'm going to be beaten to death …

    Ye Yan squatted down with the whip in his hand and looked at Shen Nian's face, which was full of scars.

    Well? Is there something you want to tell us?

    He came all the way from Ox-Head Mountain. There's a vegetable base there. It's in the abandoned warehouse behind her.

    Shen Nian immediately fainted after speaking. Ye Wen and Dongfang looked at each other but didn't say anything.

    The two of them walked to the car, opened the door, and got in.

    The car sped past Shen Nian, who was still sprawled on the ground like a giant turtle.

    Shen Lo felt that he was on the verge of collapsing. She didn't know how long she stayed in this small dark room.

    It was damp and cold here, and it was winter, and the temperature outside was almost the same as it was inside.

    Furthermore, there was a leak in the middle of the metal house, and a cold wind blew in. Luckily, she had two chocolates in her bag, so she managed to hold on for a few days.

    If it wasn't for these two pieces of chocolate, Shen Mi might have starved himself to death.

    But even if he ate sparingly, she ate all the chocolates.

    There were still some rotting leaves on the ground, and if she couldn't hold on any longer, she would have to eat some.

    However, those leaves had already become mildewed. If she ate it, not only would she not be able to save her life, she might even die because of it.

    So Shen is determined not to eat until the last moment.

    He was so hungry that he felt like he was about to hallucinate.

    She did not have a watch or a phone, and he had no idea how many days had passed since then.

    She put her hand on her belly. She didn't know how the baby was, or if it was safe in her stomach.

    She only had one thought in her heart, and that was that she must survive and give birth to her child.

    She closed her eyes, and slowly the image of the East appeared before her eyes. The image of the East grew clearer and clearer.

    At this very moment, when Shen Kui thought he was about to die, he was actually thinking about the East.

    The only people she really wanted to see right now were her grandfather and Dongfang.

    Shen Li laid on the ground powerlessly, not caring how cold it was.

    So many days slowly passed.

    She felt as if she couldn't bear it any longer.

    Suddenly, she seemed to hear footsteps and her heart began to race.

    Who was it? Could it be that mysterious black clothed man had come?

    He hadn't been around for days, and the footsteps were getting closer and closer. It didn't seem like Shen's imagination, and she soon heard the sound of someone unlocking the door.

    She used both of her hands to prop herself up and looked at the door. Creak! The door opened and a gust of fresh, cold wind blew in.

    He tried so hard to peek at the door, but he couldn't hold it anymore and fainted.

    In the hospital's VIP ward, Shen was lying quietly on the bed. Dong Fang was standing beside the bed, staring down at Shen's pale face.

    Fortunately, the doctor had carefully examined them and told them that Shen was just suffering from severe water shortages and malnutrition. Everything else was fine, but fortunately, she had eaten two high-calorie milk chocolates to replenish her energy. That was why he was able to survive until now.

    The child in her stomach was also very tenacious. As long as she stayed in the hospital for a few more days, she would be fine.

    When she had first seen Shen Qian lying on the ground in the cold, damp warehouse, she had thought Shen Qian had died. The despair that had filled her heart at that moment was indescribable.

    Shen Lo's gaze lingered on Shen Lo's face for a long time. After looking for a long time, he reached out his hand to gently stroke her hair, then turned around and walked out of the ward.

    Fatigue Ye and Madam Ye were at the door. Dong Fang walked in front of Madam Ye and bowed to her. Auntie, I'll be leaving first!

    What, you don't want to wait for me to wake up? The doctor said that he would wake up soon.

    No … Dong Fang's face showed a faint sense of fatigue. He hadn't had a good night's sleep for the sake of Shen Lo. Moreover, he hadn't fully recovered from his injuries.

    I'll take you to the elevator.

    The two men started walking towards the elevator. When they were almost to the door, Nightingale finally said, I want to know why you didn't stay and wait for me to wake up.

    Take good care of her. She has experienced life and death, so fortunately, the child in her womb is still safe. So, I hope that you will not let her down.

    The elevator doors opened and the East stepped inside.

    Nightingale pressed her hand against the door of the elevator that was about to close. She looked to the east and asked, What, you mean you want to give me the long distance?

    I didn't have the habit of making love, but I knew that I wasn't the one who loved her from afar. Thus, at that time, I made an oath in my heart that as long as she returned safely, I would no longer bother her.

    So you think I'm the one you love all this time, and you want to push her to me?

    "She risked her life to have the child in her womb, but why can't you give her the life she wants? Furthermore, during the time of the long-distance incident, I could tell that you and Madam Ye's family were very concerned about the long-distance incident and treated her as one of your own.

    Dongfang pushed open the elevator door. I pressed my hand against the door, and at the moment I closed the door, I said to Ye Ci, Don't tell them that I appeared. Just tell them that you were the only one here from the beginning to the end.

    The elevator door closed.

    Ye leaned against the wall for a moment, looking at the tightly shut elevator door, then turned around and walked towards Shen Li's sickroom.

    Long distance! Long distance! Shen Li's head was still filled with this voice. His voice was hoarse, but was filled with despair and helplessness. It sounded like it would cause anyone who heard it to feel heartache.

    Shen was very tired and wanted to sleep a little longer, but the sound forced her to open her eyes.

    There were a few figures standing by the side of the bed as their vision became blurry. When they saw that she had opened her eyes, they happily surrounded her.

    Long distance, you're awake! It was the voice of Madam Ye. As soon as she opened her mouth, tears fell onto Shen Lo's blanket. You're finally awake. Thank God, my child.

    Mrs. Ye sobbed, and Mr. Ye supported her. He said gently to Shen Kui, Long distance, are you feeling all right?

    Shen Kui tried hard to open his eyes to identify Mrs. Ye, Mr. Ye, and Ye Yan.

    Her eyes flitted from one to the other of them, then back again, and she did not find the person she wanted to see the most.

    Long distance … Madam Ye wiped away her tears. It's all our fault for not protecting you well and allowing such a thing to happen to you. It's a good thing that the child in your womb is fine.

    Mr. Ye said with a voice filled with anger, Don't worry, I will definitely tear Shen Nian into a thousand pieces! Old Master Shen will not let him off.

    Was this done by Shen Nian? Shen is not good at thinking right now.

    She tried to smile, but nothing came out.

    The nurse and the doctor walked in. The doctor gave Shen a routine examination and told them, Miss Shen is still weak after waking up and is not suitable for conversation. So, please go back and let her have a good rest.

    Then I'll send you some soup tonight, so that you can have a good rest.

    Shen Lo nodded with a smile as he watched everyone leave.

    Just as Nightingale was about to step out of the ward, she shouted, Bro, you stay here first!

    He closed the door behind him and walked back into the room. He looked at Shen Lo's pale and bloodless face and tucked her in. What do you want to ask?

    Brother, how did you find me?

    We beat up Shen Nian. Hurry up and kill him before he speaks the truth.

    Afterwards, Ye Wen had someone look at Shen Nian. There were very few people there, and only after a few hours did people find out that it was the police. He reckoned that Shen Nian would only be half dead.

    There's always a way to find you, now that you're awake and resting, don't think too much.

    Then, did you go alone to save me? Shen Li asked hesitantly.

    She wanted to ask if Dongfang had come with him to save her.

    Nightingale had never lied before, but Dongfang had specifically asked for it just now. Therefore, after a moment of weariness, Ye Wen answered, I'm the only one here. What about it?

    Nothing. Shen Li shook his head, but her subconscious thought that when she had fallen on the floor of the warehouse, a pair of particularly warm and powerful arms had picked her up. The embrace was not a tired one, and she could hear the sounds of the East tearing in her ears.

    CHAPTER 405 - PANACEA 74

    Shen Kui had clearly heard the voice of the East, but Ye Wen said that he had never seen him before.

    Ye Wen could see the disappointment and disappointment on Shen Lo's face. Although Shen Lo had a tough mouth in front of him, anyone could tell that Shen Lo Long was rather disappointed when she woke up and didn't see the East.

    Brother, where did you find me?

    It's a vegetable base at Ox-Head Mountains. There's an abandoned warehouse behind it.

    So it was Shen Nian who kidnapped me? How much did he ask grandpa for?

    Ye Wen shook his head, He doesn't want money. He wants your life.

    Shen Kui trembled visibly, What? No way, he hates me that much?"

    He doesn't hate you because you're in his way. As long as anyone is in his way, he'll take care of them. Don't worry, I won't let anyone hurt you again.

    Shen Kui nodded his head. I've made you worry.

    Seeing Shen Lo's pale face, his eyes were filled with worry. Rest well here. I'll stay here to accompany you tonight.

    You definitely haven't had a good rest in the past few days when I was kidnapped. Right now, I'm very safe in the hospital. You can go back now.

    I can sleep comfortably on the sofa here too. Ye Ye Wen pointed at the sofa in the living room. Sleep for a while.

    Shen Lu closed his eyes. In reality, she couldn't fall asleep at all.

    When Nightingale saw Shen Lo's slightly fluttering eyelashes, she knew that Shen Lo's heart was already in turmoil. What she was concerned about was whether or not the East had been as anxious as they were over the past few days.

    He walked out of the ward to the corridor window and smoked a cigarette. Before he could take out his cigarette case, he received a call from Dongfang.

    Hey, have you woken up from a long journey?

    He woke up.

    Did the doctor say anything about her?

    She was good, she was sane, and she recognized each of us.

    Oh, Dongfang let out a sigh of relief. That's good!

    All Dongfang wanted to know was enough, but he didn't immediately hang up. He took out a cigarette case, lit it up, and slowly took a drag. Anything else you want to know?

    Dongfang didn't say anything, and even Nightingale could guess.

    Did you ask me if I woke up from a long journey?

    The phone was silent. Nightingale could feel that Dongfang's breathing was a bit more disordered than before.

    He paused for a moment before continuing, Alright, since that's the case, then it's fine.

    After Dongfang hung up, Nightingale looked down at her phone and stuffed it into her pocket.

    Nightmare stayed in the hospital with Shen, so he moved the meeting to the next ward.

    Shen Kui had just returned and nothing could be slacked. He arranged for some of his elite bodyguards to stand guard at the door.

    In fact, he knew very well that Shen Nian wouldn't dare to act rashly at this time. Besides, he was afraid of them that night.

    He heard that Shen Nian was barely breathing when he was sent to the hospital. His skin was cut open and many of his wounds needed stitches.

    Shen Nian was like a sandbag that had been ripped open. His entire body needed to be sewn up to prevent sand from leaking.

    He should be too scared to move.

    After the tiring meeting, Ye walked out of the room next door to check on Shen Lu, only to see Dongfang walk out of the elevator with a bunch of flowers in his arms.

    Nighteyes stopped at the door, but the East came up to him and stood in front of him.

    Ye Wen looked at the sunflowers in his arms. They were called Moonlight Sunflowers, with yellow petals, brown flower plates, and some colorful wild flowers. They were very pretty.

    To see a long journey?

    Hmm, no matter what, I should at least see her. If I don't even show my face, then it would be too fake.

    That was true. Even if Dongfang Xi was going to let go of Shen Lai, he was still tired of her before she disappeared. However, after the incident with Shen Lo, he suddenly disappeared without a trace, which couldn't be justified.

    I'm going downstairs for a cup of coffee. You can go in.

    Dongfang watched him walk into the elevator, then opened the door and walked in while carrying Hua.

    Shen Li was lying quietly on the bed, her face almost the same color as the bed sheets.

    She had been locked up for four days and had eaten only two pieces of chocolate. It was her will that kept her alive.

    Seeing Shen Lo's thin face, Dong Fang's hand clenched into a fist. He wanted to rush in front of Shen Nian and smash his chubby face into a piece of cake.

    She was still asleep, so Dongfang took light steps and tiptoed over to the bed. He placed the flowers on the
