Lu Qirui was not probing, but rather comforting her. “Anwan, don’t worry.
Everything will be fine.”
“Okay, thank you.” Yu Anwan nodded.
For some reason, she felt that Lu Qirui seemed oddly familiar.
Lu Qirui smiled and said, “You’re welcome. You don’t need to thank family.” Yu Anwan was taken aback.
Lu Qirui didn’t say anything but cast an unassuming look toward Wen Jin. His attitude was not as polite as when he interacted with Yu Anwan. It held a hint of sharpness.
Wen Jin calmly stated without avoiding Lu Qirui’s gaze. “I haven’t informed her yet.”
Lu Qirui let out a short, cold laugh. It was unclear whether he believed Wen Jin’s words or not.
Yu Anwan felt perplexed by their exchange but couldn’t find an opportunity to ask questions given the tense atmosphere.
At the moment Lu Qirui glanced at her, a man in a black suit quickly approached.
Yu Anwan recognized him as Lu Qirui’s secretary. He was responsible for external affairs and, to some extent, represented Lu Qirui.
“Mr. Lu, everything has been sorted. Our people have entered and will soon bring Miss out,” Secretary Zhang reported respectfully.
Lu Qirui replied with an “Oh”.
Wen Jin turned to Yu Anwan, saying, “Wait for me here.”
Yu Anwan wanted to follow, but Wen Jin’s gaze had a newfound seriousness. Each word he spoke sounded resolute, “If you go in, it will distract me. I need to focus on Xiaobao. I can’t afford to be distracted by you. Please be obedient.”
These words stopped Yu Anwan in her tracks.
A commotion echoed through the camp. Yu Anwan, while gazing at the camp not far away, felt her palms becoming sweaty.
Wen Jin hugged her waist and placed a deep kiss on her lips, leaving Yu Anwan slightly stunned.
“Trust me.” Wen Jin reassured her.
Lu Qirui looked at them briefly, still expressionless, and then swiftly walked towards the camp. Wen Jin followed calmly.
Yu Anwan stood there, feeling somewhat lost.
Secretary Zhang did not follow but stood quietly beside Yu Anwan. He smiled and calmly said, “Miss, you are the daughter of the Lu family and President Lu’s biological sister.”
Yu Anwan was completely taken aback. “What did you say?”
“Yes, you’re from the Lu family. I will explain everything in more detail when President Lu brings Miss out,” Secretary Zhang stated before stopping further conversation.
The matters related to the Lu family were not something to be casually discussed.
Yu Anwan was shocked but realized that Secretary Zhang was in a difficult position. She eventually calmed down.
“Who is responsible for this?” Yu Anwan asked Secretary Zhang.
If it could draw the attention of the Lu family, and it was in Jiang City, then this matter was far from simple.
“If the information is correct, it was the Second Master who orchestrated it, Secretary Zhang replied without changing his expression.
The second master of the Lu family was Lu Chongming because he happened to be the second son.
Even though he was marginalized within the Lu family, he was still a member. When outsiders saw Lu Chongming, they addressed him as a Second Master.
Given the situation, it wouldn’t be easy for Lu Chongming.
“He utilized the military’s influence under the guise of the Lu family. If someone with ill intentions took advantage of this, it would be a delicate matter,” Secretary Zhang explained. “So, Young Miss, the Lu family won’t let this matter go.”
Yu Anwan remained silent.
She subconsciously licked her dry lips.
The news hit her abruptly, causing Yu Anwan’s thoughts to come to a standstill. It wasn’t easy to process this information.
Secretary Zhang couldn’t make baseless claims.
Since Lu Chongming was named as the perpetrator, Yu Anwan couldn’t help but suspect that Lu Nanxin might be involved. Otherwise, she couldn’t fathom why Lu Chongming would kidnap her daughter, given they had no apparent grievances.
But at this moment, Yu Anwan’s focus was on Yu Xiaobao. She refrained from speaking, standing there with a sense of anxiety, observing the situation within the camp.
“Young Miss, please don’t worry. President Lu has made the necessary arrangements. There shouldn’t be any issues, and Miss will surely return safely.” Secretary Zhang, aware of Yu Anwan’s concerns, offered words of comfort.
Yu Anwan nodded but didn’t shift her gaze.
At the same time, Yu Xiaobao had been struggling to survive.
A day and night had passed with no food or drink. Even an adult might struggle, let alone a child.
Not to mention, Yu Xiaobao’s health was not very good.
She was becoming aware of her labored breathing, with her heart writhing in pain. It was an indescribable sensation, but Yu Xiaobao could sense that she might not last much longer.
The people who had kidnapped her had yet to locate her within the camp.
The entire security became much tighter, and there were more people.
Xioabao couldn’t be certain they wouldn’t return to search again.
Suddenly, the outside was filled with silent but ominous smoke. This, combined with the cramped, sewer-like space, led to thinning air within the crevice.
It was a survival instinct that compelled Yu Xiaobao to scramble toward the opening.
“Over here!” Someone suddenly shouted.
And then, Yu Xiaobao was hoisted up.
Yu Xiaobao was unable to withstand the excessive force. Below her calf, she was scratched by the rough wall. It was a shocking sight.
It was as if his entire body had been stained with blood.
As she was rocked back and forth, Yu Xiaobao’s breathing grew increasingly labored, and she could no longer muster the agility to resist.
Her entire body had gone limp.
Wen Jin and Lu Qirui had also arrived. However, they were now under control.
But what they hadn’t anticipated was that Yu Xiaobao would be seized in this manner under such conditions.
Yu Xiaobao was their trump card. Everyone present was part of a special forces team, and they were fully aware of the dire consequences of being captured under these circumstances.
Therefore, they couldn’t simply release Yu Xiaobao.
“Put her down,” Lu Qirui commanded sternly, lifting a wooden crate. His expression was dark, his demeanor exuding a chilling intensity.
The surrounding soldiers also brandished their wooden crates, yet no one dared to approach without a command.
“We must secure our way out!” the leader asserted plainly.
Lu Qirui sneered.
Wen Jin observed the situation with a somber expression but refrained from
speaking. However, Wen Jin had already noticed that Yu Xiaobao could not hold
on any longer.
Yu Xiaobao also recognized Wen Jin’s presence. She opened her eyes and weakly smiled at him, as if mouthing, “Daddy….”
