Chapter 24

Lin Jingzhi and Bai Bing were taken aback, not knowing what had happened to Ye Qiu.

When Bai Bing came out to chase him, she saw Ye Qiu running down the stairs at an incredible speed.

"Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu..." Bai Bing shouted loudly, following behind.

However, Ye Qiu ignored her and ran directly to another floor of the inpatient department.

"Oh no, Guo Shaocong lives on this floor." Bai Bing's expression changed when she realized Ye Qiu was coming for Guo Shaocong. She chased after him, shouting, "Ye Qiu, don't do anything rash."

But it was too late.

"Bang!"

Ye Qiu kicked the door of the ward open and rushed in. He didn't see Guo Shaocong, only Zhang Lili sitting on the sofa playing with her phone.

"Where is Guo Shaocong?" Ye Qiu asked.

Suddenly, someone burst in, startling Zhang Lili. When she saw it was Ye Qiu, her face immediately showed disdain. "What are you doing here? Are you here to apologize to Shaocong?"

"I asked you, where is Guo Shaocong?" Ye Qiu repeated.

"No comment." Zhang Lili pointed to the floor and said, "If you're here to apologize to Shaocong, kneel down here first!"

Snap!

Ye Qiu stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Lili by the throat, lifting her up.

"What are you doing? Let me go, let me go..." Zhang Lili struggled desperately.

When Bai Bing entered the ward, she saw this scene and quickly said, "Ye Qiu, let her go."

"Tell me, where is Guo Shaocong?" Ye Qiu's eyes were cold, and his brows were filled with anger.

"Let me go... Help... Murder..." Zhang Lili screamed.

Snap—

Ye Qiu tightened his grip, and instantly, Zhang Lili's breathing became difficult, her eyes turning white.

"I'm asking you one last time, where is Guo Shaocong? If you don't tell me, I'll kill you!"

Ye Qiu looked like a fierce demon, and it was clear he wasn't joking.

Bai Bing also noticed that Ye Qiu was in a very bad state and quickly said, "Zhang Lili, where is Guo Shaocong?"

"He, he went out."

"Where did he go?"

"Shaocong said he was feeling suffocated in the room and asked the nurse to push him to the garden downstairs."

Ye Qiu didn't believe Zhang Lili and asked, "Why didn't you accompany Guo Shaocong?"

"Shaocong didn't want me to." Zhang Lili was very upset.

In the morning, Guo Shaocong said he wanted to go to the garden, and Zhang Lili offered to accompany him. However, Guo Shaocong suddenly got angry and scolded Zhang Lili.

Then, Guo Shaocong didn't let Zhang Lili accompany him and insisted that the nurse push him to the garden.

Feeling very upset, Zhang Lili had to stay on the sofa and play with her phone. She didn't expect Ye Qiu to suddenly burst in and bully her.

Zhang Lili couldn't hold back her tears and burst into tears.

"Bang!"

Ye Qiu threw Zhang Lili to the ground and turned to leave.

"Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu... Ye Qiu, stop!" Bai Bing blocked Ye Qiu in the corridor and asked coldly, "What happened?"

"My mother was kidnapped."

"What?" Bai Bing was shocked. Only now did she understand why Ye Qiu's mood was so off; it was because his mother was in trouble.

"Do you suspect Guo Shaocong?" Bai Bing asked.

"I only have one enemy, Guo Shaocong." Ye Qiu was absolutely certain that the kidnapping of Qian Jinglan was definitely related to Guo Shaocong.

"Let's go find Guo Shaocong." Bai Bing and Ye Qiu rushed to the garden.

In the garden, there were many patients, but Guo Shaocong was nowhere to be seen.

"Definitely this bastard kidnapped my mother." Ye Qiu said angrily.

"Ye Qiu, why don't we call the police?" Bai Bing suggested.

"If it's really Guo Shaocong, his target is me. As long as he sees me, he won't harm my mother. If we call the police, he might panic and hurt my mother." Ye Qiu continued, "Director Bai, please explain to Sister Lin for me. I'm going to save my mother now."

"Do you know where your mother is?"

"Yes, she is..."

Ding ding ding—

Before Ye Qiu could finish, his phone rang again. He quickly took it out and saw the same number as before.

He answered.

The hoarse voice said, "Ye Qiu, where are you?"

"What do you want?" Ye Qiu said angrily. "If you have any guts, come after me, don't touch my mother."

"Without kidnapping your mother, would you obediently listen to me? I warn you, don't play any tricks. If you call the police, I'll kill your mother immediately."

The hoarse voice continued, "I'll give you fifteen minutes to get to the abandoned building on Zhongbei Road. If I don't see you in fifteen minutes, well, today will be your mother's death anniversary."

"Are you Guo Shaocong?" Ye Qiu asked sternly.

"Hehe, want to know who I am? You'll find out when you come." The hoarse voice laughed coldly.

"Whether you are Guo Shaocong or not, I'm telling you, if you touch my mother, you're dead."

Snap!

Ye Qiu hung up the phone.

Bai Bing, who was standing nearby, heard the entire conversation clearly. She said to Ye Qiu, "It's hard to get a taxi at this time. I'll take you there."

"Okay."

Saving his mother was urgent, so Ye Qiu didn't hesitate.

Bai Bing drove him straight to Zhongbei Road.

On the way.

Ye Qiu called Zhao Yun. When the call connected, Ye Qiu got straight to the point, "Brother Zhao, I'm in trouble and need your help."

Ye Qiu guessed that whoever did this had already set a trap for him. Seeking help from Zhao Yun was to be on the safe side.

"What happened?" Zhao Yun asked.

"My mother was kidnapped."

"What?" Zhao Yun was also surprised and asked, "Address?"

"The abandoned building on Zhongbei Road. The kidnapper told me to get there in fifteen minutes. I'm on my way now." Ye Qiu said.

Zhao Yun said, "Little brother, keep them calm, I'll be there soon."

"Okay."

After hanging up, Ye Qiu said to Bai Bing, "Director Bai, when we get there, I'll get out of the car, and you should leave immediately."

"Why?"

"I'm afraid it might be dangerous."

"Then I can't leave." Bai Bing said, "I'll go with you to see the kidnapper; maybe I can help."

Ye Qiu glanced at Bai Bing, who was wearing a well-fitted professional outfit that accentuated her figure, especially with the seatbelt, which looked like a mountain path through a high canyon, breathtaking.

Such a beautiful woman, if seen by the kidnappers, might lead to something bad happening.

"Director Bai, listen to me, don't go in." Ye Qiu said, "I don't want you to be in danger. If you're really worried, wait for me outside."

"Okay, I'll wait for you outside, but Ye Qiu, you must be careful. Save your aunt and come out quickly." Bai Bing instructed.

"Don't worry, I'll be careful."

Twelve minutes later, the car arrived at Zhongbei Road and stopped in front of a tall abandoned building.
