Chapter 331: Chapter 331 Zhao Yaqian’s Plan

Zhao Yaqian pursed her lips and said softly, "It was Li Xiaobao. He contacted outsiders to have me kidnapped and then framed Dashan for raping me."

Zhou Hui’s expression froze.

She didn’t speak for a long time. She hadn’t expected Li Xiaobao to be so heartless. No matter what, Zhao Yaqian was his wife, yet he didn’t show any mercy.

Seeing Zhou Hui’s reaction, Zhao Yaqian bit her lip and bowed her head, feeling even more anxious.

She lowered her head and stirred the nutrient soup in her bowl with a spoon. The spoon clinked against the porcelain bowl, making a "ding..."

"Ding clang..." A crisp sound.

Zhao Yaqian choked up, "I’m sorry, Sister Zhou Hui, I’m sorry to Dashan. I’ve caused you such a big trouble. Now the whole Furong County is spreading rumors that Dashan is a rapist. It’s all my fault. If I hadn’t been scared of them and hadn’t said those things, none of this would have happened..."

After Zhao Yaqian finished speaking, tears streamed down her face.

She had helped others against Chen Dashan, yet he had risked his life to save her, let her stay in the villa, and took care of her like family. From the beginning to the end, he hadn’t complained once. The more generous Chen Dashan and Zhou Hui were, the more regretful and uneasy Zhao Yaqian felt.

Zhou Hui casually put the fruit plate aside, came over, and hugged Zhao Yaqian, comforting her softly, "It’s not your fault. You’re just a young girl. How could you be a match for those people?"

"Even if it wasn’t you, they would have found another way to get at Dashan. Stop crying!"

Zhou Hui raised her hand to smooth Zhao Yaqian’s hair. Zhao Yaqian’s face was pale, her body trembling like a startled bird. Zhou Hui felt sorry for her; she must have suffered a lot after being taken by the Zhao family these last two days.

"Stay here and rest for a few days. When Dashan comes back, I’ll have him send someone to inform your parents so they won’t worry."

Zhou Hui spoke gently and then went to prepare Zhao Yaqian’s bed.

Watching Zhou Hui’s back as she entered the room, Zhao Yaqian’s eyes became resolute. She bit her lip, determined to clear Chen Dashan’s name. She wanted to report everything to the police.

...

A few minutes later, the people lying in ambush outside Chen Dashan’s villa saw someone coming out. One person whispered, "Someone’s coming out!"

"It looks like that woman we had caught before."

"What?"

The leader’s face changed immediately. He lay flat on the roof across the street and dialed Qin Lan. Following orders, they quickly took action.

At this moment, Zhao Yaqian, wearing Zhou Hui’s clothes, slipped past the people guarding Dashan, left the villa area, and stopped a taxi on the roadside.

"Bang!"

After closing the car door, Zhao Yaqian turned her head to look at the luxurious villa complex. If it weren’t for this incident, she’d never have entered such a place in her lifetime. She took a deep breath and said, "Take me to the nearest police station."

The driver didn’t respond. He glanced in the rearview mirror and started the car. Zhao Yaqian watched the scenery by the roadside moving backward.

The only thing she could do now was to clear Chen Dashan’s name, no matter what.

...

Inside Chen Dashan’s office.

Spring was in the air.

On the sofa, Chen Dashan and Zhao Leyao were getting dressed. Zhao Leyao’s white swan neck was covered with red marks, and her fair chest was even more vividly colored. As she put on her underwear, she complained, "Look at this, anyone might think I was bitten by something."

Chen Dashan laughed, "You were bitten. We bit each other. You bit me, I bit you."

Zhao Leyao’s face was flushed, her forehead beaded with sweat. She looked like she had just finished strenuous exercise, her complexion glowing.

"Now that you know this information about the defendants, what do you plan to do next?" Zhao Leyao asked tentatively.

Chen Dashan straightened his collar, "I haven’t figured out a strategy yet, let’s discuss it later."

Just as he finished speaking.

"Buzz buzz!"

"Buzz buzz buzz..."

Chen Dashan’s phone on the desk vibrated continuously. Zhao Leyao stretched her neck, her tone jealous, "That beautiful woman is calling you again? It’s so hard to get a moment with you..."

Chen Dashan smiled. Seeing it was Zhou Hui calling, he didn’t say much to Zhao Leyao and answered the call directly.

On the other end, Zhou Hui’s anxious voice sounded, "Dashan, Zhao Yaqian is missing. She was gone in a moment. I searched the entire house and still couldn’t find her. Could she have been taken by Li Xiaobao again?"

Li Xiaobao?

Chen Dashan’s eyes were contemptuous. Li Xiaobao didn’t have the capability. Dashan had sent people to secretly guard Zhou Hui and the house’s safety. Since they hadn’t noticed anything, now only Zhou Hui knew Zhao Yaqian was missing. Chen Dashan quickly analyzed the situation and then comforted Zhou Hui, "Sister-in-law, don’t worry. I’ll take people to find her right now. If you need anything in the next few days, send someone to buy it. If you have to go out, let Peng Hu follow you."

After seriously instructing her, he hung up the phone.

"Sorry, I have to go out for a bit." Chen Dashan said while swiftly putting on his sneakers.

Zhao Leyao’s expression turned serious. She stood up, her elegant brows furrowed, "Is something wrong? Do you need my help?"

"No need, Zhao Yaqian is missing, and I’m afraid she’s in danger."

Chen Dashan explained as he turned to leave the office. Zhao Leyao took two steps forward, grabbed Chen Dashan, and said, "It must be Qin Lan’s doing. Lately, a lot of sketchy people have been around. They all seem like hooligans, ruffians from nearby cities. Be careful, Dashan."

Qin Lan?

If Zhao Yaqian died now, Chen Dashan would be the prime suspect. After all, Zhao Yaqian was the primary victim in the rape case. If she died, nobody would accuse Chen Dashan, and it would be impossible to clear his name even if he was innocent.

"Got it!"

Chen Dashan looked seriously at Zhao Leyao, "You should also be careful and take care of yourself. Don’t worry about my affairs."

After saying that, Chen Dashan hurried downstairs.

Zhao Leyao watched Dashan’s back thoughtfully, her eyes complicated.

...

Meanwhile, on the suburban highway, the taxi drove farther and farther off the beaten path.

Zhao Yaqian noticed something was wrong. She straightened up, her expression wary, and looked at the back of the driver’s head, "I want to go to the police station. Where are we? Stop the car, stop the car right now, let me off!"

Seeing that the driver ignored her, Zhao Yaqian’s heart sank, sensing something was terribly wrong.

"Stop the car!"

"I want to get off! Stop the car!" Remembering the scenes in the basement over the past couple of days, Zhao Yaqian became terrified, tears welling up. She frantically beat the car window, hoping someone would save her. She even wanted to jump out, but the car door was locked and wouldn’t budge.

"What do you want?"

"Stop the car, please, stop the car!" Zhao Yaqian sobbed uncontrollably. The driver, annoyed, slapped the steering wheel, turned his head, and glared viciously at her, "Relax, I’m taking you exactly where you need to go!"
