Chapter 15 - The Kidnapping of Lin Ruoshi

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Ye Xuan and Lin Ruoshi walked out of the Lin family house, it was already dark.

As soon as they left the house, Lin Ruoshi put her hands on her waist and said to Ye Xuan in an imposing manner, “Ye Xuan, don’t think you can look down on me just because you have money. I’m your president, and you’ll always be a security guard. Do you hear me?”

Ye Xuan nodded and bowed. “Yes, you are right, President Lin. Once a security guard, always a security guard. I am your exclusive security guard, okay?”

Lin Ruoshi was satisfied. She smiled slyly and suddenly reached out to pinch Ye Xuan’s ear. “Ye Xuan, I didn’t realize that a security guard like you is actually a tycoon in secret. You’re even richer than Ye Mingyuan.”

Ye Xuan said exaggeratedly, “President Lin, I did it all for you. I threw all my wealth into it. Now I’m penniless. I’m really going to live off you in the future.”

Lin Ruoshi patted her chest, causing her to tremble. “Don’t worry, as the president. I surely can support a security guard like you.”

“That’s good.” Ye Xuan looked relieved, which made Lin Ruoshi giggle.

Lin Ruoshi suddenly moved to Ye Xuan’s side and blew a breath of air into his ear. “Ye Xuan, you’re not serious about me, are you?”

Ye Xuan rolled his eyes. “President Lin, what if I say yes?”

Lin Ruoshi immediately looked disdainful. “Then you have to be prepared to be sad. The success rate of a small security guard pursuing a female CEO is meager. If I reject you, don’t cry under the covers.”

Ye Xuan turned around and left. Lin Ruoshi jumped in fright. “Hey, Ye Xuan, where are you going? Don’t tell me you’re going to back down now?”

Ye Xuan said without turning his head, “I’m going home first. I’ll talk after I cry.”

Lin Ruoshi was speechless and quickly chased after him. “Ye Xuan, I’m instructing you to work overtime tonight. You’re not allowed to go home!”

Ye Xuan was shocked. “President Lin, you’re taking revenge for your own personal grudge!”

“What? Do you dare to disobey? Be careful, or I’ll deduct your salary.” Lin Ruoshi had a fearless expression.

Ye Xuan was helpless. “Don’t say that, President Lin. My treasury has been emptied, yet you still want to deduct my salary. You’re so ruthless.”

Lin Ruoshi was extremely happy. She liked the feeling of having Ye Xuan in her hands. It was wonderful.

Waving her hand, Lin Ruoshi said, “Cut the crap. Take me to the office!”

“Yes, President Lin!” Ye Xuan ran to get a taxi.

While waiting for the taxi, Ye Xuan said to Lin Ruoshi, “President Lin, do you need my help with the agency?”

Considering that Lin Ruoshi was pregnant, Ye Xuan did not want her burdened.

“No need. I will handle this personally!” Lin Ruoshi’s eyes were firm.

“Okay, then you must be careful. You are pregnant now. Don’t tire yourself out. Do what you can.” Ye Xuan could not help but exhort.

“Okay, you’re acting like an old woman. Don’t worry.”

The taxi arrived. The two got inside and rushed to the office.

After arriving, Ye Xuan went to the security room and made routine work arrangements. Then he went home after his work was done.

Ye Xuan was a local of Suzhou City. His parents both lived here. His father was the factory manager, and his mother was an English teacher. Ye Xuan usually stayed with them.

When he got home, his parents were both there. They had just finished cooking and invited Ye Xuan to eat. Ye Xuan was so hungry that he buried his head in his food.

At the same time, Lin Ruoshi returned to the office and looked through the information about the extensive local pharmaceutical companies. She made plans for the next day. Then she left and stood by the roadside to hail a taxi.

Soon, a taxi stopped and revealed the face of a middle-aged woman. “Hello, where are you going?”

Lin Ruoshi saw the female driver and felt more at ease. She opened the door and sat in the car. “Huaihai Road, Honghui District.”

“Madam, please fasten your seatbelt,” the female driver reminded politely. Her voice was gentle and easily instilled trust in others.

A faint scent of perfume filled the taxi.

Lin Ruoshi nodded, fastened her seatbelt, and fiddled with her phone.

The taxi started and drove forward.

Lin Ruoshi suddenly felt that her eyes were a little blurry. She only thought that this was because she stared at her phone while inside the car. 

She hurriedly put down her phone and looked forward.

But, the feeling all over her body was getting more and more serious. There was no improvement at all. Suddenly, her vision went black, and she fainted.

The female driver glanced at Lin Ruoshi, and the corners of her mouth curled up into a smile as if her plot had succeeded. “After waiting for a whole day, I finally managed to catch you alone.”

The female driver took out her walkie-talkie. “The prey has been caught, and the hunter is returning to the nest.”

The taxi drove into the night and disappeared.

They were in a single-family villa on the Gao family’s side, and the decoration was highly luxurious.

But at this moment, the atmosphere was weighty.

The entire estate was covered in white silk, and the large living room on the first floor had turned into a mourning hall.

In the middle of the hall was a red coffin. The quality of the casket was excellent, and the surface of the paint was shiny. One look and one could tell that it was priceless.

On the top of the coffin stood a black and white photo on the altar. On closer inspection, it was a photo of the Young Master of the Gao family, Gao Longfei!

At this moment, plenty of people were standing in the mourning hall.

They were all the most essential core members of the Gao family. The Gao family had not informed anyone of Gao Longfei’s death, and there was not a single piece of news leaked to the outside world.

These people all looked very distressed.

At noon today, an assassin took away Gao Longfei’s life.

Fortunately, the warriors of the Gao family reacted quickly, or else the head of the family would have been killed as well. In the end, all of them managed to eliminate the assassin.

After a short period of panic, the Gao family, in their grief, set up a mourning hall for Gao Longfei. At the same time, they used all their intellectual power and combined it with speculation. They finally determined their enemies as Lin Ruoshi and Ye Xuan.

Gao Longfei’s father, Gao Song, was standing beside the coffin. His face was filled with grief, paleness, and anger.

Serious killing intent was brewing in his eyes.

In front of Gao Song, a woman was kneeling on the couch, unconscious with tears on her face. She was Gao Longfei’s mother. This was already the fifth time she had cried herself unconscious.

Beside Gao song stood a man in his fifties. He was the martial arts master who had accompanied Gao Longfei to the Lin family’s banquet, Elder Zhou.

“Master Gao, we’ve already caught the woman, but what if Ye Xuan doesn’t show up?” Elder Zhou had just finished a phone call, and he posed this question to Gao Song.

Gao Song’s face darkened, and he gnashed his teeth. “If he doesn’t show up, kill Lin Ruoshi first. I want to torture this b*stard to death so that I can console my son’s soul in heaven!”

Elder Zhou sighed and did not say anything else.

Gao Song suddenly raised his head and looked at him. “Elder Zhou, thank you for helping me this one last time. After tonight, no matter what the outcome is, you should leave. Don’t take any more risks for my Gao family.”

Elder Zhou lowered his head and looked at his hands wrapped in gauze. His hands were completely crippled. He only sighed.

At this moment, the villa door was opened, and a middle-aged woman carrying an unconscious woman walked in. She came to the coffin and threw the unconscious woman on the ground.

“Lin Ruoshi is here!”

The members of the Gao family were excited, and all of them stared at Lin Ruoshi with cannibalistic gazes.

Gao Song even rushed over and kicked Lin Ruoshi’s stomach. The pain made Lin Ruoshi groan in her unconscious state.

Gao Song roared and pointed at the top of the coffin. “Ma Shan, hang her up and on this beam. I want to execute her in front of my son’s body and let her blood spill all over my son’s coffin!”

Immediately, a few men walked up and grabbed Lin Ruoshi. They fed her an antidote and hung her up. Her limbs were bound by ropes, suspended above the coffin.

These men were rude, and Lin Ruoshi woke up from the pain. Then, she realized that she was suspended in mid-air, surrounded by hatred and a strong sense of fear.

She screamed, “Ah! Let me go! Who are all of you? Let me go!”
