Chapter 374: Attempted Escape
Duan Yiyao looked outside, all around her were muscular and reckless, she touched her stomach and retreated, if she was alone, she could still fight, but now that there was one more person, she had to think carefully.
Back at the villa, she paced slowly, her mind was empty, there was no way, and she walked in the opposite direction for half a circle, and suddenly looked in the direction of the back door, and there was no one guarding it.
Hurriedly walked over and reached out to turn the doorknob, only to find that it was already locked inside.
She stepped back and sat on the sofa weakly, thinking that Ye Jingyan might have been in a hurry, and she had to find a way to escape quickly!
……
On the other side, Ye Jingyan received a call from Yi Tiancheng and rushed to Yi's. Pushing open the door, Yi Tiancheng sat in his original position and waited for him.
"What's wrong?" Ye Jingyan frowned, and before he walked in the door, he asked.
He was anxious for Duan Yiyao, and when he received his call, he wanted to ignore it, but after thinking about it. They didn't know anyone here, maybe the kidnapper was his nemesis, so they suppressed their anxiety and rushed over.
"Bidding for that project suddenly started early, and we have to rush over now."
Noticing Ye Jingyan's pale face, he was a little curious, "What's wrong with you?" What about the woman next to you? ”
"Kidnapped."
Ye Jingyan rubbed his forehead and replied lightly. Since Duan Yiyao disappeared, he hadn't slept for several days, and he had been asking private detectives to investigate secretly.
"Kidnapping?" Yi Tiancheng's eyes widened, they were separated for two or three days, and this happened.
"Did you find someone?"
"The Master hasn't been found yet, but the kidnappers are already known."
"Then don't you hurry up and find someone!" Yi Tiancheng couldn't imagine that he still had the heart to talk to him here.
"Well, it's already on its way." Ye Jingyan was still unfazed, and he kept his sanity from beginning to end.
Because...... He knew that if he was all flustered, then there really wasn't anything he could do.
Yi Tiancheng had cold sweat on his forehead, he really couldn't underestimate Ye Jingyan, he always had his own plan. Incredibly meticulous.
"Then we ......"
"Wait, of course." Ye Jingyan had just picked up the teacup on the table, but before it could be put in his mouth, he interrupted his words.
"Okay......"
Yi Tiancheng swallowed the words in his throat, he called him to come to participate in the bidding, but now he had to listen to him and wait for the person to be caught, and he also had to go to his office for interrogation.
"Wow"
In the gap between their chats, there was a knock at the door, Yi Tiancheng raised his head and glanced at Ye Jingyan, and said, "Come in." ”
The person outside the door paused for a moment, then pushed the door open, "Mr. Ye, this is the person you are looking for." ”
Ye Jingyan moved his gaze to the body of the man, and saw a thin and weak man in front of him, and a person on the left and right sides held him hostage.
"You're the cleaner that day?"
He didn't ask his name, but asked him bluntly if he was a cleaner at all, and the man was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"Who instructed you?"
Ye Jingyan's eyes were too sharp, and the cleaner didn't dare to look at him when he lowered his head, "I don't know what you're talking about, sir." ”
"You know what I'm asking."
Ye Jingyan turned his chair and stopped directly opposite him, "My patience is limited, if you don't give me a satisfactory answer, you will pay for it, I heard that you also have a daughter who is going to college......"
"What are you going to do?" As soon as he heard him mention his daughter, the cleaner finally looked directly at Ye Jingyan.
"What can I do? She may not be good enough to finish her studies. Or maybe you don't have any extra money to spare for her to continue her college education......"
"In short, there are always many kinds of accidents."
Ye Jingyan lowered his head and blew on the steaming cup, and said his thoughts lightly.
"You ......"
The cleaner looked at him in disbelief, and the person who spoke softly in front of him could really be the man who said such things?
Ye Jingyan didn't look at him with any eyes, "You can not believe it, I can also let you go back." But know that you only have one chance, and if you miss it, you won't have it. ”
"You can do whatever you want to me, don't target my daughter!"
"You know it's impossible." Ye Jingyan's patience had been worn out by him, "Now it's only given you ten seconds, think about it, and you can choose to leave and say what you know." ”
After speaking. He motioned for the two people who were holding the cleaner hostage to let go, and the two looked at each other, and finally hesitated to let go.
The cleaner couldn't believe that he had been freed like this, and he didn't even need three seconds to walk straight out the door.
The person next to him reflexively stretched out his hand, and the cleaner hurriedly turned around vigilantly, seeing Ye Jingyan shaking his head at the person who stopped him.
The two of them thought about it for a while, and finally reluctantly took half a step back, they finally caught him, and now they let him go so easily, of course, they are a little unwilling.
The cleaner took a tentative step, and seeing that Ye Jingyan was not blocked, he hurriedly ran out of the office.
"You're just letting him go?" Yi Tiancheng sat aside and didn't speak. It wasn't until the cleaner fled that he couldn't help but ask.
"He'll be back!" Ye Jingyan said very confidently, and turned the quilt playfully.
Yi Tiancheng was noncommittal, and poured himself a glass of water, and as soon as he put it to his mouth, there was movement at the door.
He casually raised his eyes, and a mouthful of water did not reach his throat. Choked and coughed.
Isn't the cleaner standing at the door, who is it just now? He was sweating profusely, and when he saw Ye Jingyan, his legs were weak, and he knelt on the ground, "Sir, I'm sorry, I was wrong, I am willing to say everything, please raise your noble hand!" ”
Yi Tiancheng was speechless in surprise, pointed to the cleaner who was kneeling on the ground and asked, "You...... You, you, how did you suddenly change sex? ”
The cleaner didn't have time to pay attention to him, and kept begging Ye Jingyan, "Sir, please, let my daughter go!" ”
"Of course you can let her go, you should name the person who instructed you."
"I ...... I do not know! ”
"Oh?" Ye Jingyan smiled cruelly, "I really don't know?" Don't forget your daughter......"
"I really don't know, the person who asked me to do this at the time contacted me by phone, I don't know his identity, let alone who it is."
The cleaner was afraid that Ye Jingyan would not believe it, so he knelt down and walked a few steps towards him. "Mr. Ye, I really don't know, please...... Spare my daughter! Please......"
Ye Jingyan frowned, the clue was broken again when he arrived here, did he have to start looking for it again?
"You're all done?"
"Yes......"
"The information you gave me is completely useless, so why should I help you solve things?" Ye Jingyan didn't have any expression on his face, but only he knew. There was already a panic in my heart.
"No, no, no, Ye ...... Mr. Ye, I forgot just now, I just remembered something. ”
Ye Jingyan bowed his head and motioned for him to continue.
The cleaner swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and the Adam's apple rolled, "On the phone, I heard that I was going to bid for some Nanshan project, I didn't understand so I didn't think much about it, I don't know if this counts as a clue?" ”
He looked at Ye Jingyan cautiously, seeing that he was expressionless, he sighed in his heart, as if he already knew the ending, and couldn't help but be sad.
"Mr. Ye?" He waited and waited, and couldn't wait for Ye Jingyan to reply. I couldn't help but call him.
Ye Jingyan came back to his senses from his thoughts, glanced at him lightly, and waved his hand to take him down.
"Mr. Ye! Mr. Ye! The cleaner knew he had no hope, but he couldn't help but panic when the man who brought him grabbed his wrist.
"Please! Please......"
Ye Jingyan was upset by his quarrel and interrupted, "Your daughter is fine." Let's go back. ”
When the cleaner heard this, he immediately stopped shouting, and the big stone in his heart fell to the ground, and quietly followed the two people away.
Yi Tiancheng turned his pen and looked at Ye Jingyan with interest, "Tell me, what did you do under my nose to make him obediently run back and beg you?" ”
"It's just a hello to their school, and I found that she often skips class and hangs up a few homework according to the rules."
"That's it?" Yi Tiancheng knew that it couldn't be so simple, if it was just a few lessons, it would be impossible for the cleaner to come back and beg him.
"Of course, the job of a cleaner also needs capable people to be competent, and I just mentioned it to their leaders."
The corners of Yi Tiancheng's mouth twitched. It's ruthless enough!
cut off other people's financial resources, and made his daughter unable to graduate, it is estimated that he will run back to beg him.
He didn't know the concept of money before, but now that the company is about to go bankrupt, he knows that money is really a good thing, and he can do a lot of things with it!
"The 'Nanshan Project' he just mentioned seems to be the project we are observing now."
Yi Tiancheng reacted as he spoke. "Do you mean...... The person who kidnapped Duan Yiyao was ...... My stepmother? ”
Ye Jingyan raised his eyebrows, noncommittal. This was the only one person who had been involved in the project, and she had made a sudden decision in the last few days, and if that wasn't enough, it was really too dull, and he really couldn't find any more reason to reject them.
"So what to do?" The green tendons on Yi Tiancheng's forehead jumped straight up, he didn't expect his stepmother to use such an extreme method. They were already weak, and now they have no chance of winning.
"Go with the flow."
Ye Jingyan, who has always been calm, actually spit out these four words.
Yi Tiancheng felt a sense of weakness, and started competing this afternoon, and suddenly something like this happened, and their chances of success were almost zero.
"You just do what you say, and you don't have to worry about the rest of the work."
"Huh?" Yi Tiancheng was puzzled.
Didn't he save Duan Yiyao? Impossible? It didn't look like he was pretending to care so much about her before, could it be that he was clumsy. Or is he acting too well?
Ye Jingyan was silent and didn't speak again, but in fact, he was silently planning to rescue Duan Yiyao.
……
At the venue of the Nanshan project, Yi Tiancheng and Ye Jingyan walked in side by side, and it was already full of people. Therefore, the space left for them is the first row closest to the podium.
Yi Tiancheng walked ahead, and Ye Jingyan had been observing the terrain, he didn't know if it was possible for her to bring Duan Yiyao in, but it was always good to observe it, and he would be familiar with it when he went out in advance.
His position was side by side with Yi Tiancheng, who was close to the south gate. He was a little closer to the aisle.
stepped forward quickly, said a few words in Yi Tiancheng's ear, and then naturally walked in front and sat in the position that originally belonged to Yi Tiancheng.
None of the people around him had seen him, and they couldn't help but secretly look at Ye Jingyan's position curiously, guessing what his identity was, and he sat in the best position as soon as he appeared.
Ye Jingyan sat on the chair, his eyes indifferent, as if he hadn't noticed the eyes around him.
When Yi Tiancheng sat down and talked to Ye Jingyan in a whisper, the people behind suddenly realized that it was related to Yi Tiancheng, no wonder he was so arrogant.
The people around have all taken their seats, and only the position next to Yi Tiancheng has not arrived for a long time.
Ye Jingyan's identity is no longer important. People moved their eyes to that empty seat again, what kind of person is such a big name, they are about to start, and they haven't arrived yet.
"Everyone, please be quiet!"
There was a man standing on the podium, with a rich face, touching his big belly and clearing his throat. "Now I announce that our Nanshan project ......"
"Wait!"
A female voice interrupted him, and everyone was shocked, and they all looked towards the source of the sound, and saw the doorway behind him, and opened a crack, and the sunlight outside shone in.
The exquisitely dressed woman walked to the podium against the light, people couldn't see her face clearly, but from the temperament around her, it could be seen that she was definitely not a simple woman.
The closer she took a step, the darker Yi Tiancheng's face became, because he only knew by listening to the voice and not looking at his face that this woman was ...... It was his stepmother.
She slowly stepped down the stairs, approaching Yi Tiancheng step by step, and finally sat down in the empty seat beside him.
"Tiancheng, long time no see!" Lu Qi had a three-point smile on his face, and said hello meaningfully.
"Humph......"
Yi Tiancheng turned his head, unwilling to look at her, if he still had some so-called family affection for her before, now he has long been worn away by what she has done.
Lu Qi didn't care much, sat upright, and nodded to the people on the podium.
The man smiled back, and then continued the unfinished words just now, "I announce that the bidding for the Nanshan project has officially begun!" ”
The applause from the audience was thunderous, and then some people began to raise signs, at first they were some small numbers, 100,000, 200,000, they didn't care at all, anyone present could raise a sign.
None of the three people in the front row moved, Ye Jingyan turned the ring absentmindedly, his mind was spinning, but he didn't know what he was thinking.
"A million!"
The audience was clamoring to compete with their cards, and suddenly a voice came out to make them all stop the noise.
