On the day of his whirlwind wedding, the heir to a wealthy family stood up!

Chapter 208 The Bodyguard Who Was Turned Against Him

Xu Yuan was asked by Gu Heting to rest aside while he directed everyone to start catching fish. As Xu Yuan watched the bustling activity of catching fish, her gaze unconsciously fell on Gu Heting. She was also glad that he had come; otherwise, she would have truly perished in the jaws of wolves.

"We've caught ten, Sister Xiaoyuan. Let's catch thirty this time and then organize a team to come and catch more and airlift them directly to our lab."

"Okay, take thirty back for testing first. If it's really effective, we can send people to retrieve them."

Finally, after catching all thirty fish, everyone packed up their tools and left the cave. Xu Yuan was taken care of by Gu Heting as they came out. When they stepped out of the cave, it was still two o'clock in the afternoon. Everyone started to eat something. They would rest here tonight and set off early tomorrow morning.

At that moment, within the bodyguard team, one of the bodyguards glanced at his phone, took it, walked behind a clump of trees in the distance, and dialed a number.

"Hey! I've already sent you our location."

“We’ve already entered the mountains. Find an opportunity to get Gu Heting off the group so it will be easier for us to make our move.”

"Okay, I'll have my chance."

"As long as we succeed, Mr. Shen will definitely not treat you unfairly."

“I know, I will cooperate with you.” After the bodyguard finished speaking, a ruthless glint flashed in his eyes. He desperately needed a sum of money, and before he set off, Shen Yaohui had privately approached him, asking him to cooperate in the ambush and killing of Gu Heting in the primitive area. He promised to give him ten million.

For an ordinary person, ten million is a sum of money that they could never earn in a lifetime.

Inside the tent, Gao Yang had brought several packets of instant coffee. The aroma of coffee wafted out, and Xu Yuan, holding a cup of coffee, felt a wonderful mood. Being able to have a cup of coffee deep in the mountains was truly a treat.

Gu Heting's gaze fell on her face, his eyes unconsciously revealing tenderness and affection. Gao Yang, who was standing to the side, saw this and thought to himself, "The boss is finally going to say goodbye to being a bachelor."

Miss Xu is definitely going to be his future boss's wife.

"Miss Xu, there's more here. Here, let me add another cup of coffee for you." Gao Yang warmly brought over the freshly brewed coffee.

"Thank you, I've had enough. Let's share it!" Xu Yuan said, noticing someone staring at her. She turned her bright eyes to that person.

Gu Heting's expression clearly panicked for a moment. Then, he pretended to look at the scenery around him, his handsome face revealing a hint of youthful shyness.

Xu Yuan smiled, pursing her red lips, and lowered her head.

Her smile drew Gu Heting's gaze again, and Xu Yuan wanted to steal another look at him. Instantly, their eyes met.

Now, Xu Yuan's face turned red, and even her ears were flushed.

Gu Heting smiled. Some feelings, even if you want to hide them in your heart, will still be revealed in your eyes. At this moment, he suddenly didn't want to hide them anymore. He looked at the shy and charming girl and took in her beauty at will.

Seeing this, Gao Yang quickly and quietly moved away. He couldn't disturb his boss's romantic moment.

However, this scene was also witnessed by the bodyguard who had just left the group. It seems that there is only one reason to lure Gu Heting away from the group, and that is Xu Yuan's disappearance.

That night, everyone was too tired to go to bed early. Xu Yuan and Gu Heting also went to their respective tents, but neither of them felt sleepy. Now that they had successfully completed the sample collection, they would be able to return to City A in three days at most.

Xu Yuan was focused on getting right to the experiment, while Gu Heting was thinking about something else. He was determined to treat her to a meal to thank her when they returned to City A. He was wondering what he should say at that meal.

As he thought about it, Gu Heting's lips curled up into a smile. He was determined to say what was on his mind when that day came.

He likes her.

In the primeval forest under the cover of night, a team of four men were groping their way forward. They were all tall, strong, and dark-skinned. They were mercenaries who had infiltrated the country. They would take any job as long as the client could afford it.

This time, their target is a wealthy young man with a net worth of hundreds of billions. All they need to do is stage an accident that causes his death.

"Boss, we're still 800 meters away from them. Let's wait and not get too close."

"Everyone, take a break and wait for their message." The leader raised his hand, ordering his men to rest on the spot.

As dawn broke, everyone began packing and tidying up. Xu Yuan had also finished packing when a bodyguard approached her and said, "Miss Xu, Young Master Gu wants to speak with you privately. Please come with me."

Xu Yuan was taken aback. She looked up and saw that Gu Heting was indeed not in the crowd. This man was Gu Heting's bodyguard. Without thinking much, she nodded and followed him toward a grove of trees.

After walking for about ten meters, Xu Yuan suddenly felt something was wrong. She turned to the bodyguard in front of her and said, "Brother bodyguard, are you leading us the wrong way?"

The bodyguard glanced around, smiled, and said, "I must have remembered the wrong way. Sorry, let's go back then!"

"It's nothing." Xu Yuan turned around and walked back, but at that moment, a sharp palm strike came down on the back of her neck.

Xu Yuan suddenly fell to the ground and fainted. The bodyguard carried Xu Yuan to a dense thicket of trees and only came out after making sure that no one would find her.

Gu Heting and Gao Yang were walking back from one direction. Everyone had already packed their gear. When the guide turned around to count the number of people, he asked in surprise, "Hey! Where's that pretty girl? She's gone!"

Gu Heting immediately looked up and surveyed the group, and indeed Xu Yuan was nowhere to be seen. He asked Xu Yuan's teammates, "Where is your captain?"

"Hey! She was just here a moment ago, where did she go? Her luggage was all packed!"

Gu Heting squatted down to check Xu Yuan's belongings and found that even her most important bag was still there. He immediately said to everyone, "Everyone, spread out and search. Let me know as soon as you have any news."

No one dared to delay and quickly put down their luggage to search. The bodyguard immediately stepped forward and said to Gu Heting, "Young Master Gu, I think I saw Miss Xu walk in that direction."

Gu Heting naturally wouldn't let any information slip by. He said in a deep voice, "Take me there."

At this moment, Gao Yang also wanted to follow, but the bodyguard stopped him and said, "Assistant Gao, go and take a look in other directions. I'll stay here with Young Master Gu."

Gao Yang thought to himself that having more directions meant more hope, so he nodded and headed in another direction.

As the bodyguard watched Gu Heting walk ahead, he immediately followed and sent out his location information.

"Mr. Gu, could Miss Xu have been kidnapped? After all, Miss Xu is beautiful and the only girl among them," the bodyguard asked as he stepped forward.
