Lin Hao returned to the room and hurriedly made a phone call.

The call was connected quickly, and before Lin Hao could speak, Cheng Shu's voice came over.

"Lin Hao, I really underestimated you."

Lin Hao was stunned, and his mustache fell down. "Mr. Cheng, what do you mean by that?"

"Don't act like that in front of me." Cheng Shu lowered his voice. "You're the first person to fall into the hands of Luosha Hall and be sent back safe and sound in a luxury car, right?"

Hearing this, Lin Hao's face turned pale, "Boss Cheng, wasn't it you who saved me?"

"I wanted to save you, but you didn't give me a chance." Cheng Shu laughed softly on the other end of the phone. "I didn't expect that Wan Hang didn't give in, but you did!"

"Mr. Cheng, I didn't!" Lin Hao hurriedly explained, "I didn't say anything. I didn't even mention your name!"

"By the way, Ling Che just came over." He quickly mentioned Ling Che's recent arrival. "He's still testing me, but I didn't say anything. He definitely won't be able to trace it back to you."

"Do you fucking think I don't know Ling Che went?"

Cheng Shu roared angrily from the other end of the line, "My people saw you being sent back by Luosha Hall, and Ling Che personally went to your place to reminisce about the past. What's next? Are you planning to lure me out with Ling Che and get me to take the bait?"

"Lin Hao, you played a great game! How much benefit did Ling Che give you?! Did I treat you unfairly?"

Lin Hao was so frightened that his face turned pale, and only then did he realize the purpose of Ling Che's visit.

"Boss Cheng! I get it! Ling Che wants to play a dog-eat-dog game! He's doing this on purpose to make you distrust me..."

"Who the hell are you calling a dog! Are you a dog or am I a dog?" Cheng Shu interrupted Lin Hao before he could finish his words.

Then he sneered, "Do you think I can still believe you? Even if I do, will the one above us believe you?"

When Lin Hao heard this, he was so frightened that even the bones in his body went limp.

The big shot above is suspicious by nature. After this incident, no matter how I express my sincerity, he will definitely not believe me.

Then something struck him, like a life-saving straw.

"Mr. Cheng, I have another piece of news!"

"Tell this news to the higher-ups. As long as they know, they'll know that I definitely didn't cooperate with Ling Che!"

Cheng Shu said in a calm voice, "Then let's see if your information is valuable."

Lin Hao looked around frantically, confirming that no one was passing through the tightly closed door, either inside or outside. Then he whispered into the receiver, "Ling Che has a weakness: his wife, Qiao Ruyi, whom he's been hiding."

"Qiao Ruyi?"

"That's right!" Lin Hao said quickly, "Ling Che definitely treats his wife differently. If Qiao Ruyi is really Ling Che's weak spot, if we catch this woman, we'll definitely be able to bring Ling Che down!"

Cheng Shu asked suspiciously, "You're talking nonsense, Lin Hao. Can a man be tripped by a woman?"

"Mr. Cheng, you don't know this," Lin Hao whispered. "Since ancient times, heroes have been reluctant to accept the temptation of beautiful women, especially at Ling Che's age, full of vigor and vitality. His wife is so alluring. Whether she holds any weight in his heart, you'll know if you try."

......

"He really said that?"

A dull male voice came from the other end of the phone.

Through the voice changer, the man's real voice cannot be heard.

"Yes, boss." Cheng Shu sat in the study and told him all the news about Lin Hao.

The person on the other end of the phone thought for a moment and then said, "Do you think I can be convinced by the words of a lackey?"

"Boss, are you planning to..."

"You know what happens to those who betray me."

Cheng Shu nodded quickly over the phone, "Yes, Boss, I understand."

"Cheng Shu," the other end called out to him, "If Ling Che finds you, you know what to do, right?"

Cheng Shu clenched the phone in his hand, "Boss, don't worry, I won't reveal a single word about you even if I die!"

After hanging up the phone, Cheng Shu broke out in a cold sweat. He called Chang Hong over and said, "Since Ling Che has pushed me to this point, it's not my fault."

After saying that, his eyes darkened, "Send him a big gift for me."

......

The flower delivery guy said he took a shortcut through the back door of the restaurant.

Compared to the front door, the back door is darker and not many people pass by. There is a small path not far ahead.

There was only a gray van parked on the side of the road.

Qiao Ruyi stood at the back door and did not see the boy who delivered the flowers.

Just as I was about to pick up my phone to make a call, I heard a sound of footsteps behind me.

The sound was a bit creepy, and Qiao Ruyi suddenly realized that something was wrong.

She turned her head suddenly, and before she could see who was coming, someone covered her mouth and nose with a thick handkerchief.

A pungent smell suddenly came from my nose.

Suddenly, alarm bells rang in her heart!

Someone wants to harm her!!!

She instinctively wanted to call for help, but the person covering her mouth and nose was extremely strong.

She couldn't make a sound.

After struggling for a few seconds, he found himself weak all over, his vision gradually blurred, and then his eyes went black and he knew nothing.

The phone in my hand fell to the ground.

In the dim environment, she was carried into the gray van.

......

Sitting in the restaurant, Ling Che looked at the empty seat opposite him, then glanced at the watch on his wrist.

Why haven’t you come back after so long?

He glanced down through the glass and did not see Qiao Ruyi.

I picked up my phone and dialed Qiao Ruyi's number, but it rang for a long time but no one answered.

He asked the restaurant waitress to check the bathroom and was told that Mrs. Ling was not there.

His brows suddenly furrowed, and he immediately stood up and walked towards the door.

People were coming and going outside the restaurant, but Qiao Ruyi was nowhere to be seen.

His face was frighteningly cold, the knuckles of his hand holding the phone were white, his chest was heaving violently, and he cursed under his breath.

"Grass!"

There was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the monitoring room, and the restaurant manager quickly opened the door of the monitoring room.

"Boss Ling, all the restaurant's surveillance cameras are here! We'll check them for you right away!"

Mrs. Ling suddenly disappeared in his restaurant. If something goes wrong, he will have no chance of surviving in Beijing!

Ling Che's eyes were fixed on the computer in the monitoring room. He pulled up the person sitting in front of the computer, and then his fingers tapped on the keyboard rapidly.

After a while, Qiao Ruyi's figure appeared on the screen.

Ling Che's deep gaze suddenly locked onto her. She didn't walk towards the restaurant door, but changed direction and walked to the other side.

Finally, it disappeared from the screen.

Ling Che turned around and stared fiercely at the restaurant manager, pointing his finger at the screen, "Where does this lead to?"

The manager was so frightened that he kept saying, "It's the back door! The back door of the restaurant!"

There was a "bang"!

Ling Che punched the screen, and the flat computer screen was instantly shattered into pieces.

"I'm asking you about surveillance!"
