Chapter 310 - 310 310 Leaving but Ended up Being Captured

310: Chapter 310 Leaving but Ended up Being Captured 310: Chapter 310 Leaving but Ended up Being Captured Ningzhou City, the commercial street, Ling Weiwei and Ning Qi walked side by side.

Although both women wore oversized sunglasses that somewhat concealed their attractive faces, it was their smooth and tender chins and lithe, graceful figures that still managed to attract the majority of the pedestrians’ gazes.

“Shouldn’t we leave some money for him?” How passersby looked didn’t seem to bother Minister Ling at all.

Being noticed by men for her face and figure wasn’t something new to her.

Not to mention, at this moment, her heart was completely wrapped up in thoughts of Lin Fei.

It could be said that, having left the hotel room in a spur-of-the-moment indignation along with Ning Qi, she was prepared to completely abandon Lin Fei.

However, out of emotional attachment to Lin Fei, once her flare of anger had subsided, Minister Ling couldn’t help feeling a bit reluctant.

“Minister Ling, I’m not trying to criticize you.

But we’ve already left, and even the plane tickets are bought.

It’s too late to turn back now, even if you want to.”

Ning Qi clearly didn’t share Ling Weiwei’s reluctance; having the rare chance to get back at Lin Fei, after having been mistreated and even duped into losing half a month’s salary by him, she certainly didn’t wish to ruin this excellent opportunity for revenge due to Ling Weiwei’s momentary compassion.

“I’m not thinking of turning back, leaving him behind by himself, I have no objections.

It’s just, shouldn’t we leave him some money, so that he can eat?

Having left him behind is punishment enough, letting him go hungry would be a bit too much, wouldn’t it?”

Clearly, Minister Ling wasn’t feeling sorry about leaving Lin Fei alone in Ningzhou; rather, she couldn’t bear the thought of him being hungry.

“Minister Ling, relax.

With his personality, he wouldn’t let himself starve.

Besides, even a few missed meals won’t kill him.

Let’s go.”

Upon realizing that Ling Weiwei wasn’t actually unwilling to leave Lin Fei behind, Ning Qi let out a sigh of relief and gently reassured her, then without further discussion, she dragged Ling Weiwei into a nearby shopping mall.

…

“Minister Ling, you’re being too generous, how could you buy such an expensive suit for him?!” Ning Qi exited the mall with a disapproving look, her pretty face staring at the carefully picked suit for Lin Fei in Ling Weiwei’s hand.

As for the heap of clothes, hats, cosmetics, and other items that Ling Weiwei had paid for her, stewardess Ning seemed to conveniently ignore those.

“Consider it compensation for his company on the work trip.”

Initially, Minister Ling hadn’t planned to buy clothes for Lin Fei, but passing by the men’s section, she couldn’t help but picture Lin Fei in her mind.

With that, she roughly estimated Lin Fei’s size and impulsively bought him a suit in a moment of excitement.

Whether it was a compensation for accompanying her on the business trip or something else, only Minister Ling knew for sure.

“I really don’t know what kind of good karma he accumulated in his past life.” Slightly resentful, Ning Qi murmured under her breath about the high-end suit bought for Lin Fei by Ling Weiwei.

Excitedly, she leaned in close to Ling Weiwei’s ear and said, “Minister Ling, it’s about time.

Why don’t you call Lin Fei, trick him into coming out for a meal so we can go back to the room and pack our bags?”

“That’s a good idea.”

After pondering for a couple of seconds, Ling Weiwei slightly nodded.

Before she could even reach for her phone, a van suddenly stopped next to her and Ning Qi, and several burly men got out and surrounded them.

“Are you Ling Weiwei from Mu Group?”

The leader, a bald man, glanced at the screen of his phone before fixing his gaze on Ling Weiwei.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.

If you’re looking for someone, I think you might have the wrong person.”

This sudden turn of events indeed startled Ling Weiwei significantly.

However, being the General Affairs Director of Mu Group, she had some psychological fortitude.

After a moment of shock, Ling Weiwei quickly regained her composure, knowing that the men meant trouble, she immediately denied her identity.

The spoken words had barely settled when Ling Weiwei, mustering her strength, grabbed Ning Qi and attempted to slip away.

However, the bald-headed thug in the lead clearly had no intention of letting the two women leave, despite Ling Weiwei’s denial.

The bald man picked up his phone again and compared it to Ling Weiwei back and forth before signaling his underling to snatch away her sunglasses and her Hermes handbag.

The man who had taken Ling Weiwei’s Hermes bag pulled out her ID, glanced at it briefly, and handed it to the bald thug, stating gravely, “Boss, it’s her.”

“Take her away!”

After verifying Ling Weiwei’s identity, the bald thug gestured, and several men surrounded Ling Weiwei and Ning Qi, pressing them into the car.

“Who are you people, knowing who I am, how dare you—under broad daylight—”

Ling Weiwei couldn’t recall any transgression on her part that might warrant such an abduction by these bandits, but the bald thug and his men clearly were not in the mood for conversation.

“Shut her up!”

At the bald thug’s command, towels were stuffed directly into the mouths of Ling Weiwei and Ning Qi.

Moreover, the two men sitting beside them each pulled out a dagger and gestured threateningly at the women, their intentions crystal clear.

With things having come to this point, Ling Weiwei and Ning Qi wanted to cry out for help but were powerless to do so.

They could only exchange glances and settle down for the moment.

…

In the development district of Ningzhou city, at a modern factory belonging to the Ningzhou branch of Mu Group, Ling Weiwei and Ning Qi were brought here by the bald thug and his men.

Clap!

Clap!

Clap!

“Minister Ling, I bet you didn’t expect to meet under these circumstances, huh?”

After Ling Weiwei and Ning Qi were tied to chairs, the Ningzhou branch’s General Manager of Mu Group, Luo Zhongjun—in his suit and about forty years of age—stepped forward, clapping his hands leisurely.

“Director Luo, is this your idea of hospitality?!”

Seeing Luo Zhongjun emerge with applause, Ling Weiwei knew in her heart that he was most likely the mastermind behind her and Ning Qi’s kidnapping.

The anxiety that initially filled her gradually gave way to calmness.

The unknown is the most terrifying; but once you know who the enemy is, the fear in your heart gradually fades.

That was the state Ling Weiwei found herself in at the moment.

Although she was unclear why Luo Zhongjun had suddenly turned hostile and kidnapped her, facing Luo Zhongjun—a General Manager of Mu Group’s Ningzhou branch she had previously dealt with—definitely felt more reassuring than confronting a group of malevolent, strong men of unknown identity.

Luo Zhongjun, who had paced up to face Ling Weiwei, gradually wore a colder expression, his lips curling into a cold smirk, “My way of hospitality has always been, to treat those useful to me well.

As for those who stab me in the back and betray me, I will send them—down to Hell!”

With Luo Zhongjun’s words, the slight hope that had lingered in Ling Weiwei’s heart instantly sank to the depths…
