Chapter 1230
Chapter 1230 – What if, it’s a conspiracy of Lord Mu Si? (2)
Unsurprisingly, Mu Mu should indeed be back.
But then, the accident happened.
When Xu Yuning went downstairs, Kang Ruicheng was storming out of the living room, yelling at the person on the other end of the phone, “If you can’t find Mu Mu, you’d better never appear in front of me! Otherwise, you will be a thousand times more upset than Mu Mu!”
What do you mean, “If you can’t find Mu Mu”?
Mu is missing?
Xu Yuning’s heart panicked, she couldn’t care about anything else and hurriedly walked to Kang Ruicheng’s side: “What’s wrong with Mu Mu?”
Kang Ruicheng hung up the phone, looked at Xu Yuning, and said only after a long time, “Mu Mu has disappeared.”
“…… What?” Xu Yuning almost couldn’t believe what she heard, rushing to Kang Ruicheng in front of her in a flash, the panic in her voice storming | revealing nothing, “How could Mu Mu be missing?”
“He was still in the classroom during class, Dongzi didn’t receive him after school, and the kindergarten teacher didn’t find him either.” Kang Ruicheng glanced at Xu Yuning and said faintly, “Calm down, I’ve already sent people to look for him.”
“What about the surveillance?” Xu Yuning was at a loss for words, thinking of any method to immediately bring it up, “Did you ask someone to line up the surveillance video?”
Kang Ruicheng’s voice remained muted, “Checking.”
It didn’t sound like he was too attached to Mu Mu’s disappearance.
Xu Yuning’s attention just shifted to Kang Ruicheng, looking at him incredulously, “Mu Mu has already disappeared, why are you still here? Why don’t you go look for Mu Mu?”
“…… “Kang Ruicheng didn’t say anything, his gaze looking deeply at Xu Yuning.
Xu Yuning nodded, having lost all patience, and said word for word, “If you don’t go, I’ll go!”
Mu was nowhere to be found, and no one knew what kind of disaster would happen to him.
She definitely couldn’t wait around for news.
Xu Yuning was serious, and as soon as the tail end of his voice fell, he turned around and was about to go out the door.
Kang Ruicheng reacted quickly as well, pulling Xu Yuning down with a low growl, “Where are you going to find Mu Mu?”
“I have my own methods, I don’t want to stay here like you and wait for news.” Xu Yuning was genuinely anxious, his emotions were a bit out of control, and his voice couldn’t help but pull up quite a bit.
Kang Ruicheng clutched Xu Yuning’s hand tighter and snorted coldly.
Xu Yuning really couldn’t understand this smile of Kang Ruicheng, and took out the last of her patience to ask, “What are you smiling about?”
Kang Ruicheng smiled even more kindly and asked instead of answering, “Do you know who the most likely person to take Mu Mu is?”
There was a clear implication in his tone.
Xu Yuning quickly reacted and looked at Kang Ruicheng incredulously, “You’re suspecting Mu Shi Jue?”
“Other than him, who else has a reason to take Mu Mu?” Kang Ruicheng said, and the smile at the corner of his lips grew colder and colder, “Ah Ning, today, there’s no way I’m going to let you leave here!”
Xu Yuning’s focus was all on the first half of Kang Ruicheng’s sentence, after all, at this time, the most important thing was Mu Mu’s safety, not Mu Sijiu’s person.
She looked at Kang Ruicheng and shook her head with certainty: “It won’t be Mu Shi Jue, you should investigate in other directions. It’s a complete waste of time for you to investigate Mu Si Jue at this time.”
“Are you so sure that it’s not Mu Shi Jue?” Kang Ruicheng let out a kind smile and asked back in a harsh tone, “On what basis are you sure?”
Xu Yuning couldn’t care less anymore and said directly, “Just by virtue of the fact that I know Mu Sijun, Mu Sijun wouldn’t hurt a five year old child! For you to bite the bullet and say that it was Mu Sijun who took Mu Mu, I think it’s a stupid prejudice, your prejudice will harm Mu Mu!”
“Is that so?” Kang Ruicheng’s kind smile had an extra touch of danger in it, “Ah Ning, are you defending Mu Shijiu?”
“That’s not the point!” Xu Yuning was undaunted, staring angrily at Kang Ruicheng, a hint of desperation in her voice, “You can not believe in Mu Sijun, but why don’t you believe that I am doing this for the sake of Mu Mu’s safety?”
“……”
Kang Ruicheng furrowed his brows for a moment, as if waking up from a dream.
Xu Yuning’s return to him might indeed have an ulterior motive, but her love for Mu Mu was true.
She shouldn’t not care when Mu is in danger.
Perhaps, at times like this, he should trust Xu Yuning.
Conrad City faltered and asked, “Are you sure?”
Xu Yuning closed his eyes and said word for word, “I guarantee it with my life!”
Kang Ruicheng dialed Dongzi’s phone and instructed, “Don’t check on Mu Shijiu anymore, Mu Mu might have been taken by someone else.”
“…… “Dongzi was silent for two seconds and said with some heaviness, “Brother Cheng, we’ve just found out.”
Kang Ruicheng’s hand clutching the cell phone tightened suddenly, his voice strained like a drawn bow, “Who is it?”
Dongzi had yet to name the murderer, but Kang Ruicheng had already handily killed that person countless times in his mind.
“It’s someone from the Chen family in C city, Chen Dong, do you still remember? We just …… stole a business from him a few days ago.” The more Dongzi said, the more grave his tone became, “I saw from the video that Chen Dong sneaked into the kindergarten and personally carried away Mu Mu.”
Turns out, it really wasn’t Musashi.
Although Mu Sijiu cold-blooded, but deep in his bones, but also hides a few points of the so-called “gentleman style”.
Chen Dong is completely different.
In order to achieve his goal, Chen Dong could do anything.
When taking revenge on someone, Chen Dong can even kill without even blinking, he will not even take into account that Mu Mu is only a five year old child.
The veins on Kang Ruicheng’s forehead popped up, and a thick murderous aura permeated his tone, ”Contact Chen Dong and ask him what conditions he has. As long as he releases Mu Mu, I can promise him anything. But remember, do not reveal our bottom line to Chen Dong too early.”
“Brother Cheng, I have just contacted Dong Chen,” Dongzi said somewhat feebly, “Dong Chen’s phone is unanswered, I guess he did it on purpose.”
Kang Ruicheng had snatched a great deal of business from Chen Dong’s hands, and now that the matter was irreparable, Chen Dong was harboring a grudge and kidnapped Mu Mu to take revenge on Kang Ruicheng, so how could he possibly let Kang Ruicheng get in touch with him so quickly?
He didn’t want to get anything from Kang Ruicheng, he just wanted Kang Ruicheng to experience that kind of burning and torture.
Kang Ruicheng hung up the phone and then smashed the tea set on the table.
Xu Yuning had already guessed what was going on and asked directly, “Who took Mu Mu?”
Kang Ruicheng squeezed two words out of his teeth in a murderous manner, “Chen, Dong.”
Chen Dong had better make sure that nothing would happen to Mu Mu, otherwise, he would definitely make Chen Dong pay a thousand times the price!
Xu Yuning wrinkled her eyebrows, “That Chen Dong from the Chen family in C City?”
Kang Ruicheng looked at Xu Yuning with some surprise: “You know Chen Dong? I don’t remember mentioning him to you.”
Xu Yuning avoided Kang Ruicheng’s gaze and said, “When I was undercover beside Mu Sijiu, I met Chen Dong a few times.”
“……”
Kang Ruicheng didn’t say anything else.
Even so, sending Xu Yuning to Mu Si Jue’s side was still the most regrettable decision he had ever made in his life.
Xu Yuning then asked, “What are Dong Chen’s conditions?”
“……”
This time, Conrad City’s silence was even more complete.
The doubt in Xu Yuning’s heart deepened, and she pursued, “It’s impossible for Chen Dong to have no purpose in taking the trouble to kidnap Mu Mu, right?”
“He doesn’t answer our calls and doesn’t even negotiate with us.” Kang Ruicheng paused for a moment before saying, “He’s just trying to get back at me.”
When kidnapping occurs, the greatest fear is that the other party does not have any demands in terms of benefits, but just for the sake of pure revenge.
Hostages are often greatly harmed in such situations.
Xu Yuning wrinkled her eyebrows and looked anxiously at Kang Ruicheng, “Aren’t you going to think of a way?”
Kang Ruicheng rubbed his temples vigorously, “I’m thinking.”
However, the biggest problem at the moment is that they don’t have a very good solution.
If Chen Dong had any conditions, he could just raise them and Kang Ruicheng could immediately agree to him and then go and fetch Mu Mu back.
However, Chen Dong just wanted to get back at him.
Chen Dong kidnapped Mu Mu in order to utilize Mu Mu’s value, and they simply did not have anything of equal value to Mu Mu to exchange with Chen Dong.
Xu Yuning’s heart was burning like fire, in the midst of all the fire, she suddenly remembered something and snatched Kang Ruicheng’s cell phone, “You don’t have to think, I have a way.”
By the time the tail end of her voice fell, she had sharply lost a string of digits in the dialing screen.
Kang Ruicheng vaguely remembered that it was someone’s phone number.
In an instant, Kang Ruicheng’s anger attacked his heart, he snatched back the cell phone and stared viciously at Xu Yuning, “Who are you calling?!”
“Mu Si Jue!” Xu Yuning didn’t hide it anymore, and said unapologetically, “Mu Sijue and Chen Dong are friends, and most importantly, Chen Dong listens to Mu Sijue’s words. If Sir Mu told Chen Dong to release Mu Mu, Chen Dong will definitely comply and Mu Mu can come back.”
“Xu Yuning, are you crazy?!” Kang Ruicheng “snapped”, ruthlessly slammed his cell phone, coldly looked at Xu Yuning, “You mean, I have to ask for help from Mu Shijiu?”
“It’s not you.” Xu Yuning emphasized word for word, “It’s me who’s going to ask for help from Mu Siju.”
“Even more so if it’s you!” Kang Ruicheng’s eyes were red with rage as he yelled lowly, “Ah Ning, you know full well that I don’t share the same fate as Lu Bo Yan and those people, and for you to ask for help from them at this time isn’t it tantamount to telling them that I can’t even take care of my own son? What are you doing?”
“I want to save Mu Mu, I couldn’t care less!” Xu Yuning looked at Kang Ruicheng, her eyes had started to redden, “I only know that Mu Mu is in the hands of your enemies, and you can’t do anything about your enemies right now, but Mu Sijun can, and Chen Dong almost completely listens to Mu Sijun!”
“…… “Kang Ruicheng suddenly calmed down and gave a cold laugh, “What makes you think that Mu Sijun will definitely help you? Or maybe, this kidnapping, is simply a conspiracy between Chen Dong and Mu Sijun?”
“I said that Mu Siju wouldn’t lay his hands on a child, I’ve been by his side for a year, I know him!” Xu Yuning looked at Kang Ruicheng almost pleadingly, but her tone was extraordinarily strong, “My decision now concerns Mu Mu’s life, whether you agree or not, I will make this call!”
