Shi Yong paced around the room anxiously.
Shi Xiao called him and told him that both she and Qin Yu had been kidnapped. Later, in order to survive, she lied to Qin Yu with those people. However, she did not succeed. She was leaving and told him to take care.
This phone call almost made Shi Yong jumped up from his chair.
Other than these confusing words, there was nothing else. He could not reach Shi Xiao’s phone anymore.
After he calmed down, Shi Yong sorted out all the important points in her words. He broke out in cold sweat.
He stared at his phone but did not dare call the number saved as “Telco Customer Service”.
Zhao Jian rushed in. “Mr. Shi, something has happened!”
Shi Yong looked up. His expression was extremely ugly as he stared at Zhao Jian.
Zhao Jian wiped the sweat off his forehead. “Mr. Shi, there’s a problem with our bank account. Our funds have been frozen.”
Shi Yong was surprised. “Why? Did you ask for a reason?”
Zhao Jian gulped and panted. “They said that our loans are overdue. Now they want to recheck our credit.”
Shi Yong said angrily, “How is that possible? There were no problems with the financial reports at the beginning of the month!”
Zhao Jian nodded. “Yes, the finance director went to the banks, but the statements of the few banks are all the same: pending internal investigation, our accounts are temporarily frozen.”
“Temporarily? Until When?”
“I don’t know. There’s no specific date.”
“Then what problems do we have now?”
“We can’t make payments now. Many suppliers seem to have agreed to withdraw the money at the time. The company is in a mess now.” Zhao Jian’s tone was a little flustered.
Shi Yong knew that the problem must be very serious. Otherwise, Zhao Jian would not have such a demeanor.
An ominous premonition arose in his heart. “Did you investigate? What’s going on?”
He could hear the panic in his voice.
Zhao Jian shook his head. “But a supplier told me that someone informed them that there was a problem with our funding chain.”
Shi Yong broke down.
He fell on his chair in a daze. It took him a long time to recover. “Quick, look for the ladies.”
Zhao Jian was stunned and did not understand.
Shi Yong said, “They have been kidnapped. Quickly get someone and find them! Make a huge commotion! We must let everyone know that the eldest and second miss have been kidnapped! I’m very anxious! Remember, I’m very anxious! We must let everyone know that I’m very anxious!”
Shi Yong ordered at the top of his voice.
Zhao Jian did not dare to delay and quickly ran out to carry out the tasks given to him.
Shi Yong mustered up his courage and called the Ning family.
The person who answered the call was Uncle Wen.
Shi Yong said in a reserved manner, “I’m Shi Yong.”
Uncle Wen said plainly, “Mr. Shi, is there a problem?”
“Ah, I’d like to talk to Mr. Ning.” Listening to Uncle Wen’s cold voice, Shi Yong unconsciously lowered his arrogance.
“He’s not here. Mr. Shi, you can tell me. I’ll pass it on to young master,” Uncle Wen said.
Shi Yong didn’t understand why he was afraid of a butler, but he was Ning Chen’s butler, after all. He couldn’t afford to offend him.
He braced himself and said, “Well, Shi Xiao and Qin Yu have been kidnapped. I’ve already sent a search party out. I want to ask Mr. Ning to send more people for the search. I haven’t received any calls from the kidnappers, but we can start from the road –”
Shi Yong made his voice sound extremely anxious.
“Mr. Shi!” Uncle Wen interrupted him.
“Your eldest miss came to pick up our young madam ten days ago and she went missing ten days ago. Only now you’re informing us? Do you think that’s reasonable?” Uncle Wen sneered. His hands were trembling with anger as he tried his best to keep his voice steady.
“Ah, I... I always thought Shi Xiao was staying with the Ning family these few days and was with Qin Yu. I didn’t know that they went missing ten days ago,” Shi Yong came to his senses and defended himself.
Uncle Wen didn’t expect Shi Yong to be so shameless, and he was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, he said forthrightly, “Mr. Shi, our young madam was indeed kidnapped, but she has been rescued by our young master. However, because of her serious injuries, she is still in the hospital. We only found our young madam at the place where she was kidnapped, but we have never seen your eldest daughter. If Mr. Shi is worried, you can worry about your eldest daughter. Don’t have to worry about our young Madam!”
Uncle Wen hung up the phone and immediately used his phone to call Ning Chen to tell him what happened.
Ning Chen sat on the bed, with one hand on the IV drip, and the other hand on the phone. His eyes were looking at Qin Yu, who was curled up on the bed sleeping soundly.
“Uncle Wen, look for Shi Xiao,” Ning Chen instructed faintly.
“Yes!” Uncle Wen agreed.
“Hold yourselves steady. Don’t let grandpa return yet,” Ning Chen said.
“Understood!” Uncle Wen put down the phone.
