Chapter 339 Bow
Gu Qiyang on the other end of the phone understood Pei Jingchuan's anxiety. He knew the seriousness of this matter, "Don't worry, I'll go right away."
Pei Jingchuan hung up the phone, the force in his hand almost deforming the phone.
His heart was full of undercurrents, regarding Pei Shangde's evil plan and Jiang Yuzhu's safety.
Pei Jingchuan turned and looked out the window. The night was like ink, and his figure was lonely and firm.
He picked up the phone and dialed several numbers quickly. Each call was concise and commanding, "I want to get the answer as quickly as possible."
Then, he himself turned into a flowing shadow and rushed out of the study. The car's engine roared with his eagerness, cutting through the silent night sky.
Pei Jingchuan walked through the night, his heart like a clenched fist, tense and heavy.
Jiang Yuzhu's safety is more important than anything else.
His phone kept ringing, and every time it rang, it was like a tight string that flicked on his heart.
On the other end of the phone, each of his subordinates reported the progress of the search, but he just responded coldly, "Keep looking."
At this time, Jiang Yuzhu, despite being imprisoned, felt calm. What she was waiting for was not for reinforcements, but for the right time.
——Because she knew that no matter what the predicament was, Pei Jingchuan would definitely find her.
A day passed in the blink of an eye, and Pei Jingchuan stood in front of the office window, his eyes deep.
He had not slept all night, and his black clothes were not wrinkled at all. Although his expression was calm, it was not difficult to see the turmoil in his heart from his pursed lips and occasionally clenched fists.
Time slipped through the fingers like loose sand, and there was still no news from Jiang Yuzhu.
His worries finally turned into decision. Pei Jingchuan picked up his coat, his eyes as cold as thousand-year-old ice, and decided to go to the police station to face Pei Shangde in person.
Inside the car, the roar of the engine seemed to reflect his state of mind at the moment - urgent and shocking.
Inside the police station, the lights were dim and people were noisy, but after Pei Jingchuan walked in, all the noise seemed to be isolated by an invisible pressure. His appearance solidified the originally tense atmosphere.
"Where is Pei Shangde?" His voice did not fluctuate much, but every word was sonorous, revealing unquestionable majesty.
The police officer walked over quickly, with a complicated expression on his face, "In the interrogation room."
Pei Jingchuan walked directly towards the interrogation room. Along the way, everyone's eyes followed this man unconsciously. His back was straight and his steps were determined.
Pushing open the door of the interrogation room, Pei Shangde was sitting on an iron chair. When he saw Pei Jingchuan, a trace of pride flashed in his eyes, but he quickly concealed it.
"I can give you what you want, but you must let him go first." Pei Jingchuan's words were brief but powerful, and his eyes were cold enough to chill people's hearts.
A sarcastic smile appeared on Pei Shangde's lips, "Jingchuan, you finally understand that sometimes you have to bend down."
Pei Jingchuan stood in front of Pei Shangde, like a sculpture, cold and silent.
Every heartbeat warned him that time was passing and Jiang Yuzhu was still waiting for him.
Pei Shangde's words were particularly harsh in the silence of the interrogation room, "Get my ticket ready. When I arrive abroad safely, my people will release Yu Zhu."
Pei Jingchuan's eyes did not move, but a hint of a predator's edge flashed deep in his eyes, "Do you think you are still qualified to negotiate terms with me now?"
"Pei Shangde." Pei Jingchuan's words were as calm as a glacier, but every word was as sharp as an ice blade, "Don't mess with me."
Pei Shangde was well aware of Pei Jingchuan's ruthlessness and determination, but he still insisted on his request, "You have no choice."
Pei Jingchuan's eyes suddenly flashed with a light that made Pei Shangde shudder, "I say it again, let him go."
The air in the interrogation room was almost solid, and the dim light cast a shadow on Pei Shangde's cold face, adding a bit of a cold atmosphere to his words.
"Of course," Pei Shangde said with a hint of teasing in his smile.
"You don't have to do what I want, but in that case, Miss Yuzhu's life is not guaranteed."
Pei Jingchuan stood like a pine tree, the frost on his face seemed to be a little lower than the temperature in the room, and his voice was low and restrained.
"You should know that I don't like people threatening me."
"Well, yes, but I don't like having no choice." Pei Shangde retorted, his voice full of provocation.
In this small space, two powerful wills are competing.
Pei Jingchuan knew that every second at this moment was related to Jiang Yuzhu's safety. His heart felt like being soaked in ice water, but on the surface it was calm.
At this time, there was a steady sound of footsteps at the door, and Pei Yanqing's figure appeared on the threshold.
His appearance was like a gentle warm current, slightly easing the chilling atmosphere.
"Brother, let him go." Pei Yanqing's voice was calm and powerful, with unquestionable majesty.
Pei Jingchuan's eyes turned to Pei Yanqing, with a trace of inquiry flashing in his eyes.
Pei Yanqing took a few steps forward, looked at Pei Shangde, and said in a firm yet gentle tone, "I will handle the matter of his going abroad. You go find my sister-in-law. I believe my sister-in-law has been waiting for you."
Pei Jingchuan frowned slightly, but soon his face returned to normal, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, "Okay."
Pei Shangde looked at this scene, the smile on his lips became deeper, but the light in his eyes was dimming.
He knew that Pei Yanqing's joining had changed the situation and he no longer had all the initiative.
Pei Jingchuan stepped out of the interrogation room, and the fluorescent lights in the corridor shone coldly on his shoulders, forming long shadows.
He took out his mobile phone and pressed Assistant Qin's number. The moment the call was connected, his voice was low and fast.
"Assistant Qin, Yu Zhu's location."
On the other end of the phone, Assistant Qin's voice was a little anxious: "Mr. Pei, we are using the positioning system to search, but her mobile phone seems to be turned off."
Pei Jingchuan was silent for a moment, the haze on his face was like a sky covered with dark clouds, but his voice did not waver at all, "Activate the backup plan, contact Leviathan abroad, and locate me at all costs."
Assistant Qin quickly replied, "Understood, Mr. Pei."
After he hung up the phone, the only sound left in the silence of the garage was his determined footsteps. Pei Jingchuan walked through the garage and came to his black car. He opened the door with one hand and still held the phone tightly in the other hand. It was the last link between him and Jiang Yuzhu.
He sat in the car, his fingers lightly gliding over the cold steering wheel, and an imperceptible tenderness flashed in his eyes.
Time seemed to become longer while Pei Jingchuan waited, and every beat of the pointer was like a heavy knock on his heart.
He closed his eyes and tried to picture Jiang Yuzhu safe and sound in his mind, but the anxiety deep in his heart was like a spreading vine that was difficult to calm down.
Just when the heavy silence became almost unbearable, Assistant Qin's call broke the dead silence.
Pei Jingchuan answered the call immediately, and his voice was like the cold wind in the night, direct and powerful: "Say."
"Mr. Pei, the positioning was successful." Assistant Qin spoke nervously, as if he was trying to suppress his emotions, "It's in an abandoned residential building in the suburbs."
