Chapter 383: Chapter 267: Accident (3)_2

Tang Xi stood up, "I don’t know either, but we have to figure something out. However... since they are targeting the Shangguan Family, they probably won’t harm our lives."

These were her guesses, but hopefully they were right.

After all, Qin Zhi had been pampered since childhood, never having experienced such a thing; the little princess could hardly stand steady, her legs weak. Tang Xi felt some pity, she lowered her voice, "Wait for me here now."

She slowed her steps and walked to the door.

The iron door was closed.

She pulled hard, but couldn’t open it.

The other party must have locked the door, Tang Xi leaned into the crack of the door, looking at the faint light seeping through from outside.

She turned around and looked around, besides the tightly shut door, there were no other exits in this small warehouse.

The whole warehouse was dimly lit.

While Tang Xi’s brain quickly thought things through, she felt around the pockets on her body—her mobile phone had been taken. Indeed, the kidnapper wouldn’t leave behind any communication tools; just then, she heard Qin Zhi suddenly excitedly say, "My watch is still here! My watch has communication functions!" Saying this, she immediately took off the watch and handed it to Tang Xi.

Even though she could have immediately called her own family, her first instinct was to trust Tang Xi.

Tang Xi took the watch, without hesitation, she immediately dialed Shangguan Nanxian.

"Miss Shangguan, we’ve been kidnapped." The moment the call connected, she didn’t hesitate or beat around the bush, she informed the other side of their current situation.

She didn’t know their exact location.

She only knew it was very dark, cold, and damp.

In Beidao, apart from rainy nights during the sultry seasons, it rarely felt this cold.

But here, it gave her a cold feeling, and she could faintly hear the sound of water dripping. She could only tell Shangguan Nanxian this; the watch’s battery wasn’t lasting, and eventually, the call ended.

Qin Zhi carefully approached and asked, "We’re going to be saved, right? Miss Shangguan will come to save us, right? They will call the police, and they’ll find this place soon, right?"

She was really scared.

She was only here to participate in a competition, just wanted to be in the competition; Qin Zhi’s world was very pure, pampered by her parents since childhood, cherished by her sister, never having experienced anything like this.

Tang Xi raised her hand and gently patted her shoulder, she looked at the fear in the other’s eyes, her voice softened, "Yes, we will be saved. Don’t be scared, just think of it as a nightmare, it will be over when you wake up."

Qin Zhi sniffled and nodded her head.

"It’s a pity the watch ran out of power, otherwise I really want to call my sister. My sister is very impressive, you should know her, my sister is Qin Songqing, an international model. She must be very anxious now that I’m missing."

"This time, ten people were kidnapped, besides us two, others are held in different places."

Hearing Tang Xi’s voice, Qin Zhi was taken aback, "So many people, why... why kidnap us? Why kidnap so many people? Is it done by the Shangguan Group’s arch-rival? To sabotage this jewelry design competition?"

Qin Zhi also came from a prominent family; although she did not participate in the family business operations and chose to be a designer, she grew up in a wealthy family and was familiar with these dirty tricks. For a project, for monetary gains, many things could be done.

She had previously heard that two companies competing for the same project had one hire international kidnappers to abduct the daughter of the other company, and although this daughter was later rescued, she suffered inhuman torture and had mental issues after returning.

Thinking of this, Qin Zhi fearfully moved closer to Tang Xi.

Just then, suddenly footsteps were heard outside.

Tang Xi and Qin Zhi quickly retied the loosely tied ropes and lay down pretending to be still unconscious.

Two men walked in.

"Still not awake? Did you use too much of the drug? The women in the next room woke up already."

The other man answered, "It’s about time they should be waking up."

"Miss Gao said she wanted this woman separately. The other one is a rich girl, untouchable, just give some food and water, keep her here, it shouldn’t be long before the police come to rescue them," the man said, giving the other man a look, then they carried Tang Xi away from the warehouse.

The door of the warehouse closed again, Qin Zhi opened her eyes fearfully looking around, Tang Xi was gone. She clutched her chest, gasping heavily, but also faintly heard what the other side just said about Miss Gao?

Gao Family?

How many Gao families are there in Beidao?

Could these people be from the Gao Family?

These men must have thought they were all still asleep, thus they exposed themselves. Qin Zhi frantically took out her watch, it was out of power and switched off. She looked at the spot where Tang Xi was supposed to be lying, now there was a piece of bread and a bottle of mineral water.

Clearly, the other party didn’t dare do anything to her, instead giving her food and water.

But why was Tang Xi taken away?

-

Tang Xi pretended to be unconscious, all the way she didn’t dare to open her eyes.

When she heard "Miss Gao," Tang Xi knew, this was all done by Gao Youhan, Gao Youhan alone couldn’t have such great capability, it must have been the entire Gao Family acting together.

After all, in Beidao, the only family that does not want to see Shangguan Family steal the spotlight is the Gao Family.

But who would have thought, the Gao Family would indeed so overtly take action.

Clearly ready to tear their faces.

With the jewelry competition about to start, they kidnapped ten people including contestants and socialites.

If it were just a few designers kidnapped, it wouldn’t have caused a big stir, the Shangguan Group could have settled it with some money, those designers who didn’t show up would just be eliminated for not arriving on time.

After all, those who made it to the finals were not ordinary.

Whoever wins would truly deserve it.

But if several socialites went missing too, then the responsibility would be much greater.

Today’s design competition must have been halted.

So, does she still have a chance to participate?

After all, having reached this point, Tang Xi also wanted to strive for a better life.

But now, she had to face another difficulty, that is... Gao Youhan.
