Searching for Treasures in the Clouds

In a hotel in Haicheng.

Jiang Zaizhou sat on the sofa and looked at his phone, staring at the chat interface on the screen, but did not reply for a long time.

Cheng Fu: Zaizhou, there is a party the day after tomorrow. Do you want to go? We know people there.

Cheng Fu: Teacher Hua Xiting said she was going too.

Cheng Fu: It’s in Haicheng, and it’s said to start at 5pm.

While he was thinking, his agent Wu Yi came over.

"Mr. Jiang, Mr. Hua Xiting's nephew contacted me and said he wants to invite you to a party in Haicheng the day after tomorrow."

"Teacher Hua Xiting's nephew? Who is he?"

"Boss Jiang, it's Hua Liu."

"Have you confirmed it's him?"

"Yes, Mr. Jiang, it's him."

"I don't know him well. What kind of party is he inviting me to? Who organized it?" Jiang Zaizhou asked doubtfully.

He had a hunch that the party his agent mentioned and the opportunity Cheng Fu mentioned were the same one. Cheng Fu was considered a good friend of his. While their relationship wasn't even one-tenth as close as his with Xi Yizai and Yun Jixing, at least they could communicate normally. He and Cheng Fu had even helped each other before. So, Cheng Fu inviting him to the party made sense, but Hua Liu also inviting him was truly baffling.

"Mr. Jiang, Hua Liu said that the main person at the party is a jeweler named Zhou Haiqing, who is a good friend of Teacher Hua Xiting. She likes your brand of clothing and wants to meet you. Hua Liu is helping his aunt, Teacher Hua Xiting, to make the connection."

"Look. Let me think about it. Tell them I'm taking a break and wait for my response tomorrow."

"Ok."

After Wu Yi left Jiang Zaizhou's room, he arrived downstairs at the hotel. Standing at the main entrance, he looked around and finally locked onto a black business car. The moment he looked over, the two headlights on the black car flashed a few times.

Seeing this, Wu Yi walked over.

When he arrived in front of the car, the driver's window rolled down, revealing a man wearing a mask, hat, and sunglasses. "Get in."

Wu Yi didn't say much, walked around to the passenger seat and got in the car.

After he got in the car, it started and drove forward.

"How is it? Did Jiang Zaizhou agree to go to the party?"

"Not yet. He said he needs to think about it."

"When you get back, persuade him again. No matter what you do, you have to get him to go to the party. Otherwise, who knows what the people above will do. You won't get a penny of the money."

"Well, I see."

Wu Yi was silent for a moment, then asked, "You're just trying to scare him, right? It won't cause any harm to his personal safety."

"I don't know about that, but that's what it says." The man sneered, "Since you've already decided to help, what's the point in asking these questions? You can't get off a boat that's already been rowed away."

at the same time,

Qinglong Lake Villa,

Yun Xue finally looked at the paper documents in her hand and smiled.

"That boy Yunjixing's childhood friend was set up like this. What's the grudge? He's even worse than me, bullying a little kid like this."

Yun Xue finally finished looking through the information in his hand and threw it on the table. He looked up at Lu Jingqian and asked, "Jingqian, is the information reliable?"

"Sir, it's reliable." Lu Jingqian took out his phone, unlocked it, and handed it to Yun Xuezhongkai. "Sir, this is the list of participants."

Yun Xue finally looked at the list displayed on her phone carefully. Her brows furrowed at first, then relaxed. "No wonder they're so cruel. These old guys are the worst of the worst. That little brat is going to have a hard time."

After reading it, he returned the phone to Lu Jingqian. "Yun Jixing has also been in Haicheng recently. I remember that little kid and Yun Jixing have been friends since they were little. If that's the case, then he would definitely go to save the kid if he knew his plight."

"Yes, sir. We found out that Yunjixing's last working day in Haicheng was the day the child was taken to the party."

"Very good, in that case, he has time to go and rescue people. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to capture Yunjixing alive. That kid seems to know a lot, we can capture him and interrogate him thoroughly."

As he spoke, Yun Xue finally took out a cigarette, lit it, and held it between his lips. He took a deep puff, exhaled a smoke ring, and then said, "Where's Yun Quan?"

"Sir, the young master is riding in the back garden."

"Let him come over. I have something important to tell him."

Two days later,

Jiang Zaizhou decided to go to the party. The one his agent mentioned was the same one Cheng Fu had mentioned. He figured he'd be fine with a few people he knew, so he went. After all, Hua Xiting had specifically asked him to go, so he couldn't refuse. Pushing back might offend. He'd heard that Hua Xiting's family was a powerful executive at a biotech group, and she herself was a well-known figure in the design world. All these factors combined made it seem like he had no reason to refuse.

He was about to meet the person he had wanted to meet earlier, but he was not happy at all. He sat quietly in the back seat of the car, looking out the window, and looked a little depressed.

Wu Yi stared at the back of his head for a while, picked up a bottle of water, handed it to him and asked, "Mr. Jiang, would you like some water?"

Jiang Zaizhou turned around and saw that it was his favorite drink, so he took it. After taking a few sips, he put the bottle away and asked, "Wu Yi, do you have the location of that place? Send it to me. I can't find the place name you told me yesterday on the map."

"Yes, Mr. Jiang, please wait a moment, I'll look through the chat history." Wu Yi took out his mobile phone and started searching on it.

However, several minutes passed, and he still hadn't sent the location. Jiang Zaizhou looked at him with some dissatisfaction and curled his lips, "Does it take so long to find a location?"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, I've received too much information recently, including many business collaborations." Wu Yi raised his head and quickly observed Jiang Zaizhou's expression, then immediately lowered his head to search through the records on his phone.

"Hurry up," Jiang Zaizhou urged impatiently. Just as he was about to say something, his eyelids closed uncontrollably. Soon, his vision went black and he lost consciousness. His head banged against the car door, making a loud noise.

Wu Yi heard the noise and looked towards him. Seeing him fall, he reached out and gently patted his shoulder, "Mr. Jiang, Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Zaizhou did not respond.
