Chapter 1105 Missing
Gu Yan smiled and said, "I have sent someone to look for him. I believe there will be news soon."
Just then, Gu Yan's cell phone rang. He answered the call, and after listening to a few words, his expression suddenly became solemn.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Yunchuan asked nervously.
Gu Yan hung up the phone and looked at Cheng Yunchuan, his eyes filled with complicated emotions: "Mu Bai...she's missing."
Cheng Yunchuan's face turned pale instantly. He couldn't believe his ears: "What did you say? Mu Bai is missing? How is this possible?"
Gu Yan took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm: "My people did not find Mu Bai in the villa. The surveillance video showed that she was taken away when the power went out."
Cheng Yunchuan's heart was filled with fear and anxiety. He tightly grasped Gu Yan's arm and asked in a trembling voice, "Who is it? Who took Mu Bai away?"
Gu Yan shook his head and said, "I don't know yet, but I will definitely find her and bring her back safely."
Cheng Yunchuan's eyes were filled with despair and helplessness. He didn't know what to do and could only hold Gu Yan tightly, as if he was holding on to the last straw.
"Gu Yan, please, you must find Mu Bai, I can't live without her..."
Gu Yan looked at Cheng Yunchuan's painful expression, his heart full of self-blame and guilt. He knew that all this was because of him. If he hadn't left, Mu Bai wouldn't have encountered such danger.
"Yunchuan, don't worry, I will definitely find Mu Bai, I promise you." Gu Yan said in a firm tone.
Just then, Gu Yan's cell phone rang again. He glanced at the caller ID and his face instantly became gloomy.
"It's Lu Zeyu." Gu Yan said in a cold tone.
Gu Yan answered the phone and turned on the speakerphone. Lu Zeyu's rampant laughter came from the phone, as creepy as a venomous snake spitting out its tongue. "Gu Yan, long time no see! I didn't expect you to have the courage to come back!"
When Cheng Yunchuan heard Lu Zeyu's voice, he raised his head abruptly, his eyes burning with anger. He snatched Gu Yan's phone and yelled into the receiver: "Lu Zeyu, where did you hide Mu Bai?! If you dare to touch her, I will never let you go!"
Lu Zeyu's laughter stopped abruptly, replaced by a cold tone: "Hey, isn't this our big star Cheng Yunchuan? What, are you worried about your little lover? It's a pity that she is in my hands now. If you want her to live, just listen to me."
Cheng Yunchuan suppressed his anger and tried to keep himself calm: "What do you want?"
"It's very simple. I want you to quit the entertainment industry and publicly announce that your relationship with Jiang Mubai is fake and is for hype." Lu Zeyu made his request.
Cheng Yunchuan clenched his fists, his nails digging deep into his flesh. Quitting the entertainment industry was undoubtedly a fatal blow to him, but he couldn't bear to watch Jiang Mubai get hurt. "Okay, I promise you." He almost squeezed out these words from between his teeth.
"Straightforward! I just like dealing with smart people." Lu Zeyu smiled with satisfaction. "I want to see your statement in all media at eight o'clock tomorrow morning. Otherwise, you can just wait to collect the body of your little lover!" After that, he hung up the phone.
Cheng Yunchuan fell weakly on the sofa, his phone slipped from his hand and fell to the floor with a dull thud. He stared blankly ahead, his heart filled with despair and pain. What should he do? On one side is his career, on the other side is his beloved woman, how should he choose?
Gu Yan patted Cheng Yunchuan on the shoulder and comforted him: "Yunchuan, don't worry, we will find a way."
Cheng Yunchuan raised his head and looked at Gu Yan, his eyes full of helplessness: "Gu Yan, what should I do? I can't lose Mu Bai, and I can't lose my career..."
Gu Yan was silent for a moment, then said: "Yunchuan, I know this is difficult for you, but now is not the time to hesitate. We must find Mu Bai as soon as possible and rescue her from Lu Zeyu."
Cheng Yunchuan nodded. He knew that Gu Yan was right. The most important thing now was to rescue Jiang Mubai. Everything else could be discussed later.
"Gu Yan, what are your plans?" Cheng Yunchuan asked.
Gu Yan pondered for a moment and said, "Since Lu Zeyu dared to call, it means he has something to rely on. We can't act rashly. We must first find out what his trump card is."
"But we don't have time. Tomorrow morning at eight o'clock..." Cheng Yunchuan said anxiously.
"I know." Gu Yan interrupted Cheng Yunchuan, "I will contact my people and find out where Lu Zeyu is hiding as soon as possible. At the same time, you should also be prepared. If it really comes to the last resort, we will have no choice but to agree to his request."
Cheng Yunchuan understood what Gu Yan meant. He nodded, with a hint of determination in his eyes. For Jiang Mubai, he was willing to pay any price, even if it meant giving up the career he had been fighting for.
Suddenly, Gu Yan's phone rang again, this time it was an unfamiliar number. He hesitated for a moment, but still answered the call.
"Hey?"
A voice with a changed voice came from the other end of the phone: "Want to save Jiang Mubai? Come to the abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city. Remember, you can only come alone, otherwise, you will bear the consequences at your own risk."
After the call ended, Gu Yan's face was gloomy. He knew it was a trap, but for Jiang Mubai, he had to go. He looked at Cheng Yunchuan and said firmly, "Yunchuan, I'm going out for a while. You wait here for me."
Cheng Yunchuan grabbed Gu Yan's arm and asked anxiously, "Where are you going? Is there any news about Mu Bai?"
Gu Yan looked at Cheng Yunchuan's anxious eyes and felt a little reluctant, but he couldn't tell him the truth, otherwise it would only make him more worried. "I have something to deal with and will be back soon."
"No, I want to go with you!" Cheng Yunchuan insisted.
Gu Yan shook his head and said firmly: "No, it's too dangerous this time, you can't go."
"But..." Cheng Yunchuan wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Gu Yan.
"No buts! You stay here, protect yourself, and wait for me to come back." After saying that, Gu Yan broke free from Cheng Yunchuan's hand, turned around and left the villa.
Cheng Yunchuan looked at Gu Yan's departing back, his heart filled with anxiety and fear. He had a hunch that this matter might not be that simple... He walked to the window, looked at the dark night sky outside, and silently prayed for Jiang Mubai's safety. At this moment, he suddenly noticed a black car parked outside the villa, and the figure in the car seemed familiar...
Cheng Yunchuan was extremely anxious, and Gu Yan's departure made him even more uneasy. That black car, the figure in the car... could it be Lu Zeyu? He suddenly remembered what Lu Zeyu said on the phone: "You can only come alone..." Could this be a trap for Gu Yan?
