Chapter 876 Kick Against the Pricks
Su Xiaoran was fearless and took fast actions.
Su Xiaoran’s heavies brought Gu Yi backed from Calada with a high efficiency that was absolutely worthy of her money.
It took them less than ten days.
They managed to kidnap Gu Yi from the guarded palace-like high-class villa in Calada.
It was 2 a.m. when Gu Yi was taken out.
Security was the weakest at that time.
They took Gu Yi to the private plane to Yuncheng right after leaving the villa.
And it was already 6 a.m. when the news that Gu Yi had gone missing was passed to Yuncheng.
The nurse usually called Gu Yi up at 6 o’clock when Gu Yi should have prepared to go downstairs for breakfast.
Gu Yi was young but self-disciplined and always managed his time strictly.
What he had experienced made him know things early.
Sinisterness and intrigues that he shouldn’t understand were also graved on his heart, more or less.
He had experienced a lot.
That was why he could keep calm when he was kidnapped and along the way to Yuncheng.
That calmness didn’t seem to belong to a child but to an experienced young man.
Gu Yi was taken to the hiding place Su Xiaoran arranged for him, as one of the heavies who monitored Gu Yi was counting the tips Su Xiaoran gave him.
When he did that, he said to Su Xiaoran, “Like mother, like son. He’s just like Gu Changge, a smart kid.”
Hearing that, Su Xiaoran frowned.
“Well?”
The man laughed, saying, “He’s quiet all the way and doesn’t seem to be scared at all.”
Su Xiaoran frowned, saying, “You’re right. He’s Gu Changge’s son, and I bet he must have experienced a lot. Besides, he might know that I won’t kill him under any circumstances.”
“I say you’d better not hurt him, Miss Su. I don’t know what connection it is between Song Yunxuan and Gu Changge, but Song Yunxuan is protecting Gu Changge’s kids. Gu Changle, who was stilled suspected to have killed Gu Changge’s daughter, was already sent to the mental hospital. It happened right before the board of the Shao enterprise.”
“It’s fine. Song Yunxuan wouldn’t know it’s me who kidnapped him.”
“But you still got to be careful.”
The man laughed.
He kept the tips, glanced at his phone, and was about to leave.
Before leaving, he took a look at the blindfolded boy that was going to be chained in the basement.
“Song Yunxuan is protecting Gu Changge’s son…” The man murmured, “Interesting.”
Su Xiaoran didn’t notice what he said. She just had Gu Yi locked in the basement.
After that, she felt relieved.
It was perfect that she now had Gu Yi in hand, the best bargaining chip, before dealing with Song Yunxuan.
This trump card could subdue Song Yunxuan for some time.
If Song Yunxuan acted rashly, Su Xiaoran would kill Gu Yi.
If Song Yunxuan knew Su Xiaoran had kidnapped Gu Yi, she would definitely take revenge on her.
If that day came, she would kill Gu Yi and herself.
She didn’t believe that Song Yunxuan could still be calm at that time.
Now she got Gu Yi, the trump card.
It gave her a sense of security.
She wouldn’t say she was sure to win, but at least, she forestalled Song Yunxuan.
…
As for Song Yunxuan, she frowned immediately as the news that Gu Yi had gone missing this morning was passed into her ears.
Chu Mochen didn’t like that Mei Qi showed up in the Chu Family.
So it was the housekeeper of the Chu Family who delivered the message.
Noticing Song Yunxuan’s frowning expression, the housekeeper said, “They said Little Master Gu always gets up and has breakfast at 6 o’clock. The nurse usually doesn’t have to call him up twice, but today he didn’t get downstairs or answer the servants after the nurse called him several more times. They were nervous, so they broke into his room to check out.”
“Then they found he was missing?”
Song Yunxuan looked up at the housekeeper.
She frowned, but there was no sign of fluster on her face.
It was because she felt there was nothing to be afraid of.
The kidnapper didn’t leave any messages for ransom or contact any of Gu Yi’s relatives.
So she could make sure that it was not kidnapping, and she didn’t have to prepare ransom money for her son.
The kidnapper wouldn’t kill him, anyway.
The kidnapper could keep out of the sight of all those security guards to break into the villa and abduct Gu Yi.
So, the kidnapper must be a smart guy.
The kidnapper could have killed Gu Yi right in the villa, as he was great enough to abduct him.
He didn’t have to wait till he took Gu Yi away.
Considering that, Song Yunxuan thought this was not a kidnapping case or a murder case.
“Have you checked the monitoring recording?”
“The monitoring recording was covered, so we didn’t find anything suspicious.”
The housekeeper told her what Mei Qi said.
Song Yunxuan put her fingers on her swollen belly softy, saying smilingly, “It seems that he abducted him as his shield.”
The housekeeper didn’t understand her words.
Song Yunxuan didn’t want the housekeeper to understand her meaning, either.
She said, “I’ll tell you if I need anything.”
Seeing that Song Yunxuan didn’t need him and had nothing more to ask, the housekeeper nodded and walked away.
However, since Song Yunxuan was informed of the news and the message was passed by the housekeeper of the Chu Family, Chu Mochen must know it.
Song Yunxuan stayed at home for a whole day, waiting for information from her men.
But she had no clue.
“Are you worried about Gu Yi?” Chu Mochen asked during the dinner.
“He’s my son.”
Song Yunxuan raised her eyes.
Chu Mochen smiled, saying, “You have no blood relationship with him right now, so maybe you won’t feel too much pain even if he gets hurt.”
Song Yunxuan said peacefully, “Then why do you still like me?”
Chu Mochen was silenced.
He smiled and sat close to her, holding her fingers and saying, “Are you mad at me?”
Song Yunxuan pulled her hand from his, saying coldly, “Someone’s declaring war against me.”
“Don’t worry. No one can mess you up except for me.”
Song Yunxuan glanced at Chu Mochen and continued, “Gu Yi’s safe now. He abducted him just to threaten me.”
“Yeah.” Chu Mochen thought of that, too. He touched Song Yunxuan’s swollen belly softly, saying, “What’s your plan, then?”
“Let’s have a war, then.”
She would like to see if abducting Gu Yi was the right choice for the kidnapper.
Gu Yi could be the amulet but could also get the kidnapper killed.
If that guy never took advantage of Gu Yi, Song Yunxuan could pass over all that had happened for the sake of her unborn baby.
But now, she wouldn’t.
She would never let the one who abducted Gu Yi off easily.
Or he could kidnap Gu Yi again someday since he had kidnapped Gu Yi once.
She really didn’t want her son to live in fear like this.
Song Yunxuan pursed her lips and narrowed her eyes slightly.
Beside her, Chu Mochen knew what was in her mind.
He touched Song Yunxuan’s swollen belly softly, saying, “You already know who did it?”
“No.” Song Yunxuan didn’t tell Chu Mochen the suspect in her heart. Because Shao Tianze and Gu Changle were in the mental hospital, they were unable to do any harm. She said, “No matter who he is, he’s gonna regret to fight me.”
No matter who tried to fight her, he or she was going to kick against the pricks.
Gu Changle and Shao Tianze were cleared of suspicion.
Therefore, there were more choices of suspects.
The suspect might be Su Xiaoran, for example.
Song Yunxuan didn’t say it out.
But Chu Mochen also knew it.
He held Song Yunxuan’s fingers, saying, “Why not leave this to me? I can help.”
“You?”
Song Yunxuan looked at Chu Mochen smilingly.
Chu Mochen also looked at her smilingly, saying, “You’re going to give birth, and worrying too much would be bad for you. Since Gu Yi’s your son, then he’s also my son after I marry you. Now my son is in danger. I should do as a father to save him out of danger, shouldn’t I?”
Song Yunxuan stared at him, saying, “Will you bring him back?”
“Sure I will. Trust me.”
Chu Mochen held her in his arms and kissed her on the forehead, saying, “Everything I promise you will come true. You just need to take care of yourself and see the child come.”
Song Yunxuan nodded.
Gu Yi was safe now, and Chu Mochen volunteered to handle this.
She could simply listen to Chu Mochen and leave this to him, then.
Song Yunxuan thought to herself.
In the next few days, Song Yunxuan rested at home, making less effort to look for Gu Yi.
As for Su Xiaoran, she locked Gu Yi in the basement.
And then she began to visit the Chu Family frequently.
And she tried to get information from the Chu Family now and then as if she had never kidnapped Gu Yi.
Song Yunxuan would soon have the baby, and day by day, she felt it difficult to move.
Every day she stayed on the sofa, read books, and seldom got off the sofa unless necessary.
Seeing that Song Yunxuan was so calm, Su Xiaoran doubted if she didn’t know Gu Yi was kidnapped at all.
She called the detective agency.
The guy in the detective agency answered, “Song Yunxuan knew Gu Yi was missing. The news Song Yunxuan’s assistant Mei Qi told the housekeeper of the Chu Family was soon passed to Song Yunxuan’s ears. She definitely knew it.”
“How can Song Yunxuan be so calmed if she knows her son’s in danger?”
Su Xiaoran really didn’t understand.
Hearing her words, the man in the detective agency paused a moment and said, “Maybe she doesn’t give a d*mn about other people’s child since her own child’s coming.”
