Wealthy Beauty in the 60s

Chapter 704 - 707: Kidnapped and Missing

Chapter 704: Chapter 707: Kidnapped and Missing Xiao Shanyue now was glad that she hadn’t had any expectations, otherwise she wouldn’t know how to feel at this moment. She sighed deeply from the bottom of her heart and once again declared, "Lady Che, I’m still young and just want to focus on my studies."

"Shanyue, such a good opportunity, if missed..." Lady Che still wanted to persuade her.

Xiao Shanyue shook her head, "I’m not you, there’s no need for you to persuade me."

Lady Che furrowed her brows, her eyes fixated on Xiao Shanyue, and with a look of disappointment and frustration, she said, "You know what you’re losing, you will regret it."

"No, I won’t regret it," Xiao Shanyue stated firmly.

"Lady Che, although I am your daughter, I am not like you."

Lady Che failed to convince Xiao Shanyue and left with an air of gloom.

Xiao Shanyue looked at the spot where Lady Che had been sitting, the untouched glass of water sitting there. She stood up, picked up the glass, poured out the water, and decided to clean the cup as well.

Despite hitting a wall with Xiao Shanyue, Lady Che was unwilling to give up so easily. At this moment, she greatly regretted not raising her daughter by her side; otherwise, she wouldn’t have to worry about her daughter not listening to her.

Assistant Qian felt this was an opportunity; if Xiao Shanyue could marry well, it would be of great benefit to the Xi Family.

The skinless woman actually had the audacity to call her; Lady Che felt a deep disgust towards Assistant Qian, but she could not help answering the call, thinking of her daughter.

So, Xi Shanyue received the call from Assistant Qian, feeling a deep sense of powerlessness. Seeing that Xi Shanyue was not speaking, Assistant Qian said, "Go home for the summer break; your father, I, and your sister all miss you."

Without waiting for Xiao Shanyue to respond, Assistant Qian hung up.

Xiao Shanyue tossed her phone aside, feeling very irritable and troubled.

After a while, unable to stay inside any longer, Xiao Shanyue left the house.

At this time, An Qian was not at her residence but had instead gone home.

Xiao Shanyue went out on her own, without knowing where to go. She walked towards Stone’s house, but after knocking on the door for a long time with no response, she realized that Stone and his family were not home.

Xiao Shanyue made a call, but Stone didn’t answer; she then decided to go out and clear her mind.

She didn’t go far, just wandered nearby, realizing that since she had arrived, she had never really seen the outside world other than her residence and school.

Stepping out, Xiao Shanyue’s mood lifted somewhat.

Suddenly, a van passed by. Just as Xiao Shanyue was about to step aside, the door of the van flew open. With a light gasp, she was pulled inside.

Xiao Shanyue’s mouth was covered, and she was quickly tied up. She looked at the kidnappers in the van with terror, unable to speak.

Who were these people, and why were they kidnapping her?

This was Xiao Shanyue’s second time being kidnapped; the first time, she was with Shitou who had rescued her.

But what about this time? Xiao Shanyue’s heart sank, yet she didn’t cry, couldn’t make a fuss, instead, she calmed down.

The kidnappers were several foreigners who found Xiao Shanyue’s response interesting.

As the car drove further and further away, Xiao Shanyue’s heart sank deeper, down to its nadir.

After wrapping up his tasks, Shitou finally saw the missed calls on his phone. However, when he tried calling back, he heard the busy tone; the line was no longer reachable.

Shitou then went to Xiao Shanyue’s residence and, after knocking on the door to no avail, he called Xiao Shu, "Do you know An Qian’s phone number?"

"I don’t have An Qian’s number. Bro, why do you need An Qian’s number?" replied Xiao Shu.

"Shanyue called me, but she didn’t pick up when I called back, and I can’t find anyone at her place," said Shitou. Without delay, Xiao Shu replied, "Okay, I’ll check and get back to you."

Xiao Shu found An Qian’s contact information quickly, and when Shitou called her and found out An Qian wasn’t with Xiao Shanyue, his heart sank.

"Uncle Long, Shanyue has gone missing. Check her whereabouts for me." After hanging up, Shitou went to look at the nearby surveillance footage.

However, Xiao Shanyue had disappeared after going down a certain road, and the surveillance camera for that stretch had conveniently malfunctioned.

When An Qian heard about Xiao Shanyue’s disappearance, she found it unbelievable. Yet, with Shitou unable to locate her, even An Qian began to panic.

"Senior Brother Peize, Shanyue’s mother has been in contact with her these days." With that, An Qian gave Shitou Lady Che’s phone number.

Lady Che was also taken aback by Xiao Shanyue’s disappearance. She had wanted to create opportunities for her daughter, never expecting her to vanish.

Once Shitou confirmed Xiao Shanyue’s disappearance, satellite surveillance also showed her being taken away by a passing van, which had its license plate covered and unidentifiable.

Shitou immediately contacted Gao Feiyue and reported to the authorities. Unsure why the kidnappers had taken Xiao Shanyue, Shitou wondered if they were targeting him.

But if they were targeting him, they would have contacted him; with no strange calls on his phone, Shitou grew uneasy.

"Bro, it might not be targeted at us; maybe some criminals saw Xi Shanyue alone and grabbed her. It might not be premeditated," Xiao Shu was also investigating.

Despite their suspicions about inviting Xiao Shanyue over as a guest making her a target, they couldn’t help but think that the lack of any demands from the kidnappers didn’t seem like it was aimed at them.

"Uncle Long, have someone check the Desire Alliance." At this moment, Shitou was unsure of the kidnappers’ motive and could not speculate, feeling some regret. He should have arranged for someone to covertly protect Xiao Shanyue.

Due to matters with the Desire Alliance, Shitou had dispatched all his bodyguards on tasks, not knowing that Xiao Shanyue would disappear just at this critical moment.

Meanwhile, the kidnapped Xiao Shanyue had not seen any actions from the captors; they were chatting and laughing in the car, and although Xiao Shanyue could understand them, their conversation had nothing to do with her.

At this point, Xiao Shanyue was not calm, but there was no use being anxious, nor did she know where these men intended to take her.
