“Director Xin! ” It was Sun Ping. He had also rushed over to the bridge.

Xin Zimo turned his head, but he was unable to calm the sorrow in his heart. “Is there any news? ”

“There’s news. Someone saw Miss Du Anran on this bridge, ” Sun Ping quickly said.

“What happened after that? Did you see her? ” Xin Zimo’s eyes were filled with joy.

“No… ” Sun Ping shook his head. “Only people saw her go from the end of the bridge to the end, but no one saw her return. ”

“No one saw her return? ” Xin Zimo was a little excited.

Sun Ping was afraid that Xin Zimo would let his imagination run wild, so he quickly said, “no, but also… no one jumped into the river… ” at the end of his sentence, Sun Ping lowered his voice …

Xin Zimo felt as if a stone had finally been lifted from his heart. He heaved a sigh of relief and stepped on the gas pedal to drive forward. “Hurry up and follow me to find her! ”

The bridge across the river was very long. Xin Zimo did not see anything unusual along the way, and of course, he did not find any traces of Du Anran. Where did she go?

Sun Ping caught up with him in his car. “CEO Xin, there aren’t many people ahead. Let’s split up and search. ”

“Alright, split up and search. Let me know if there’s any news! ” Xin Zimo said.

Just like that, the two of them parted ways at the end of the bridge. For some reason, when they reached the end of the bridge, his eyelids kept twitching non-stop. He had heard that two people with telepathy could sense each other’s presence.

Was She nearby?

Xin zimo quickly stopped the car and looked out the window. There were only a few dim street lights at the end of the bridge and the light from his car. He could not see it clearly, but Xin zimo still carefully observed the situation around him.

There was nothing special. There were only a few abandoned old houses that were half-demolished and some tattered ruins. However, there was a strong desire in his heart that urged him to come down and take a walk.

Could she be here This was indeed a good place to hide, but why would she come to the ruins for no reason Could it be… …

He didn’t dare to think further. He quickly drove the car some more distance and turned the car around so that the headlights would shine on the old house.

He was afraid that the lights would attract strangers. After he saw the entrance clearly, he decisively turned off the headlights and jumped out of the car to walk towards the ruins.

It was silent. Only the sound of cars on the road could be heard. As he slowly walked in, even the sound of cars driving gradually became softer. There was a strong voice in his heart telling him that she was here.

The old house had been uninhabited for many years. The smell of mold and rot was everywhere, and there was also a thick smell of dust mixed in. However, among the unpleasant smells, he smelled a trace of perfume.

His body was shocked. It was her favorite wish-making Elf perfume. He quickly followed the smell with all his might.

“ENAN! ” Xin Zimo was sure that she was here. At least, she had been here before!

There was no response. Only a lonely echo came from the empty house. This place was so dark that it was creepy. There was no light everywhere. Xin Zimo felt around in the darkness based on his senses.

“Anran, where are you? ” Xin Zimo shouted again. This time, there was an inexplicable sob in his voice.

He had never been so helpless before. Even when his father passed away when he was eight years old, he had never been so helpless. His father’s death made him stronger. However, Du Anran’s disappearance made him more vulnerable.

He really fell in love with her. He was afraid of losing her, very afraid… …

He shouted again and again, but there was no response. Xin Zimo looked around for the only fragrance in the air. When his eyes met the darkness, his other senses became more sensitive.

Suddenly, in one place, the scent of perfume became particularly strong. It was just like the afternoon when Du Anran stood in front of him.

However, he stopped in his tracks. He had never been so panicked before. She… … He was afraid. He was afraid that it would not end well …

However, after a moment of hesitation, he immediately took out his phone and turned on the lighting device. In front of him was a pile of debris. It was chaotic everywhere.

Even in this chaotic space, he could still see du Anran’s blue dress at first glance.

“ANRAN! ” He ran over quickly. He could not believe his eyes, but he had to believe it.

He tore open the cloth bag and saw the unconscious du Anran. He unbuttoned her clothes and only saw the marks of being beaten everywhere. He picked her up with a heartache and ran out.

Who was so cruel to hit an unarmed woman so hard. Xin Zimo could not imagine who it was. The only thing he could do was to carry her to the hospital.

“Sun Ping! I’ve found anran. Hurry and contact the city hospital. I’ll send her there immediately! ” After carrying Du Anran into the car, he immediately called Sun Ping.

He did not have time to say anything. He quickly turned the car around, stepped on the accelerator, and drove in the direction of the hospital.

He was probably too anxious and did not see the road clearly. He almost collided with a car that was driving forward. Xin zimo quickly turned to the left to avoid an accident.

However, the owner of the car was stunned and immediately followed Xin Zimo. He was none other than Jin Shaonan who had rushed over.

After Jin Shaonan hung up on Bai Ruyun, he felt that something was wrong. After a while, he called Bai Ruyun back. Only then did he know that no one had seen Du Anran.

He could not be bothered to write a press release and quickly checked on Du Anran’s whereabouts. Only then did he find the bridge across the river. However, he was still a few steps late. Just now, he saw that Xin Zimo’s face was Pale. Did something happen to Du Anran… …

Sure enough, Xin Zimo’s car stopped at the entrance of the city hospital. Immediately, a medical staff came to send Du Anran into the emergency room. Xin Zimo followed him, but he was stopped outside the emergency room.

“What happened to her? ” Jin Shaonan, who had followed Xin Zimo, ran to Xin Zimo’s side and asked anxiously.

After a few seconds of silence, Xin zimo lowered his head in frustration. “She was beaten up. ”

“What? ” Jin Shaonan was shocked. He then grabbed Xin Zimo’s collar and said fiercely, “wasn’t she with you in the afternoon? ”

Xin Zimo was suffocated by the collar, but he didn’t Stop Jin Shaonan. He said with difficulty, “yes, I didn’t look after her well. ”

Jin Shaonan immediately punched him. “Do you know that no one has wronged her for so many years? But you hurt her time and time again! ”

Jin Shaonan couldn’t imagine du Anran being beaten up. She was such a beautiful and generous girl. He had been protecting her all the four years of university, but she was beaten up by strangers.

In those years, even when she cut her finger and caught a cold for a few days, his heart ached endlessly. But now, she actually… …

He also blamed himself. When she called to explain to him, why was he still brooding over some unverifiable words. She must have been in a bad mood at that time, but he actually did not comfort her.

Gradually, his hand that was holding on to Xin Zimo’s collar also loosened. What reason did he have to blame Xin Zimo.

“was her injury serious? ” Jin Shaonan asked dejectedly.

“when I found her, she was already unconscious. ” Xin Zimo was also silent as he looked at the door of the emergency room.

Jin Shaonan’s heart thumped and he asked again, “who did it? ”

Xin Zimo had long lost his previous imposing manner. He only shook his head numbly and there seemed to be tears in his eyes. “I don’t know. ”

“I’ll go and call Auntie… ” Jin Shaonan left Xin Zimo and went to the corridor to call Bai Ruyun.

Xin Zimo was the only one left at the empty door. He could not hear anything. He only hoped that she would be safe and sound. If he could, he was willing to trade his life for hers.

He had never been as lost as he was today. If he knew the ending, he would not let her go in the afternoon. However, if he found the gangsters, he would not let them go. He would make them pay a high price!
