Inside the elevator, Shen Jun and Weng Ling maintained serious expressions, their concern palpable. Meanwhile, Zhang Lin appeared somewhat embarrassed, clutching the wine bottle in his hand. Sensing the gravity of the situation, he suppressed the urge to say anything.
As the elevator doors opened, Shen Jun and Weng Ling surged forward, entering a top floor filled with distinguished guests who often made unique demands. The absence of service staff and security personnel heightened their apprehension. Weng Ling scanned the area anxiously, searching for any sign of Wen Nian.
At this moment, Shen Jun’s phone rang.
“There are many guests on the top floor today. I’m not sure who had the audacity to disable the surveillance cameras on the second and top floors. This is infuriating!” Xue Jiang’s voice seethed with anger. “The elevator footage shows Wen Nian, no doubt about it. She’s in my territory. Rest assured, we’ll locate her.”
Shen Jun inquired, “Any idea where she might be?”He thought he was calm, but there was a quiver in his voice.
Xue Jiang perused the guest check-in list and muttered curses under his breath. “That damned Fatty Wu checked in alone today. Could it be him?”
Despite numerous check-ins, most guests had brought companions. Director Wu, however, had arrived unaccompanied.
Considering his usual demeanor and close ties to the second son of the Xue family, it seemed increasingly likely that he was the one responsible for tampering with the surveillance cameras and kidnapping Wen Nian.
The mere thought of Director Wu’s reputation and peculiar tastes sent chills down Xue Jiang’s spine.
He swiftly dispatched the security personnel to investigate. “Find out who’s on duty on the second floor today, and locate the individual in charge upstairs. Ask if anyone brought a girl to Fatty Wu’s room! Hurry!”
Shen Jun, however, was rapidly losing patience. He cut to the chase, demanding, “Room number.”
“Shen Jun, please, hear me out,” Xue Jiang urged, a hint of worry in his voice. “While Fatty Wu’s character is questionable, we can’t be absolutely certain that Wen Nian is with him.”
“Room number!” Shen Jun almost shouted.
His face had darkened, and his eyes gleamed with a barely contained fury. Seeing his abrupt movement, Zhang Lin instinctively shielded Weng Ling behind him.
Xue Jiang was well aware of Shen Jun’s resolute character. Reluctantly, he clenched his teeth and disclosed, “1207.”
Upon hearing the room number, Weng Ling sprang into action, recalling the time when Wen Nian had courageously defended her from a group of bullies. This time, she was determined to repay that debt and save Wen Nian.
With unwavering resolve, Weng Ling rushed to Room 1207 and pounded on the door with all her might. Her strength was insufficient, so she began kicking the door as well.
Shen Jun and Zhang Lin quickly joined her in their desperate attempts to breach the door. However, the Chuan Liu Clubhouse’s renovations had been executed with exceptional craftsmanship, and despite their combined efforts, the door remained steadfastly sealed.
The clamor had already attracted the attention of other guests, and a few of them stuck their heads out of their rooms, shouting their complaints.
Inside Room 1207, the occupants reacted with irritation. A voice laced with anger snarled, “Who the hell dares to kick my door? You all must have a death wish!”
Director Wu, who had just taken a shower and consumed his sexual arousal medication, had been alone with Wen Nian for barely two minutes before the commotion disrupted his plans. Naturally, his mood was foul.
He gently patted the sleeping Wen Nian’s cheek. “Darling, Uncle will spoil you later.”
Then, he slipped into his pajamas and went to answer the door. “Who’s there? Are you sick? Don’t you know who 1 am? You…”
As Director Wu opened the door, Shen Jun stormed into the room, his eyes immediately falling upon Wen Nian lying on the bed.
Wen Nian appeared unconscious, still clad in her clothes, but her disheveled hair and unusual expression sent alarm bells ringing.
Weng Ling’s eyes welled up with tears at the sight. Her grip on the wine bottle trembled involuntarily.
“Who the hell are you? Where are the security guards? Don’t ruin my mood!”
“Who the hell are you? Where are the security guards? Don’t ruin my mood!” Director Wu’s initial shock quickly gave way to annoyance. Having taken medication to increase his arousal, he was ready for some excitement, hence why he was displaying such a bad temper.
Especially when he saw Shen Jun carrying Wen Nian, he was completely anxious. “Don’t touch! She’s mine! You brat…”
As Director Wu moved to step forward, he caught Shen Jun’s icy stare and sensed a threat. Before he could react, he felt a sudden impact at the back of his head. He turned around and realized that it was the girl who had been standing at the door.
Weng Ling’s entire body trembled, still clutching the half-broken wine bottle.
Zhang Lin quickly positioned himself in front of Weng Ling. However, this time, she didn’t hide behind. Instead, she stood in front of Shen Jun and gestured for him to attend to Wen Nian first. With both hands, she gripped the remaining wine bottle, pointing it shakily at Director Wu.
“Are you all hoping to die?” Director Wu seethed with anger. Under different circumstances, he might have recognized the familiar faces of Shen Jun and Zhang Lin, but in the heat of the moment, they remained unidentifiable.
As Director Wu charged toward Weng Ling, Zhang Lin’s rage ignited. “You are the one seeking death!”
Then, Director Wu felt another blow to the back of his head. Just as he turned around, he fell to the ground with a bang..
