Chapter 291 Thank goodness you're here with me
A video of torture and bloodshed was posted online and quickly caused a huge uproar.
Everyone was discussing the post, and Song Qianyi and the others saw it too. They immediately recognized that the woman being abused in the video was likely Song Qianyu.
"This beast!"
Song Qianyi's eyes were bloodshot, and she gritted her teeth. If it weren't for her last shred of rationality keeping her calm, she would have already rushed out to settle scores with Cheng Linhao.
"Don't worry, I've already had someone remove the trending topic. We can't let this get out of hand."
After all, this is bad for everyone. If the person in the video is really Song Qianyu, then this incident will leave him with huge psychological trauma and will also cause panic among the public.
Song Qianyi agreed with his approach, but she was very worried about Song Qianyu.
"Let's keep this from my parents for now, I'm afraid they'll be taken advantage of by Cheng Linhao."
But no sooner had he finished speaking than he received a call from Mr. and Mrs. Song.
"What's with that video on Qianyi's website? Has Xiaoyu really been kidnapped? You need to go and rescue her right away!"
On the phone, Song's mother sounded heartbroken, and Song's father was also extremely anxious beside her.
"I understand, but we're not sure if the person in the video is Xiaoyu yet. I'm trying to figure something out, so please don't worry."
Song Qianyi wanted to calm the two of them down before discussing anything else, but after hearing her words, Song's parents immediately became anxious and hung up the phone, saying they would come find her.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door. As soon as Aunt Wu opened the door, she was pushed and stumbled. Fortunately, she was quick enough to grab the shelf next to her and straighten up, otherwise she would have fallen to the ground.
“I’ve seen the person in Qianyi’s video, it’s Xiaoyu. You guys need to find a way to rescue her quickly. She’s pregnant, and with so much blood on her, something must have happened.”
With tears in her eyes, Song's mother stepped forward and tightly grasped her hand, urging her to make sure Song Qianyu was brought home safely.
"Mom, don't worry, I promise to bring Xiaoyu back safely. Jing Shen has already sent people out to look for her, so don't worry."
"How can I not worry about Xiaoyu being pregnant and so weak? What if something happens to her? How am I supposed to live?"
Song Qianyi's expression froze slightly. Although she knew that her mother was worried about Song Qianyu when she said those words, she still felt a little uncomfortable. She lowered her eyes and didn't say anything more.
Mr. Song noticed her expression and immediately scolded Mrs. Song to stop talking.
"Qianyi, don't overthink it. Your mother is just too worried about Xiaoyu. If it were you in her shoes today, she would be even more worried."
Song Qianyi nodded, comforted them for a few moments, and then arranged rooms for them to rest.
"You must save your sister!"
Before leaving, Song's mother still gave her some words of advice out of concern.
Song Qianyi nodded, her eyes filled with complex emotions.
Late at night, Song Qianyi lay in bed unable to fall asleep, her mind filled with thoughts of her parents, their anxious expressions, and the woman in that video.
"Still worried about Song Qianyu?"
The man embraced the woman from behind; ever since they returned from Liangjia Village, they had tacitly agreed to sleep in the same bedroom.
So much has happened lately, especially now that Song Qianyu's fate is still unknown, Song Qianyi has been having trouble sleeping almost every night.
"I was just thinking that if I didn't find Xiaoyu in time, what would happen to my parents...?"
She didn't say what came next because she didn't know how Song's parents would treat her in the end because of this.
The man behind her sighed and tightened his grip on her arm, as if to comfort her.
"No matter what, I'll always be there for you. Don't feel too much pressure. I'll face whatever happens with you."
With those words from him, Song Qianyi's anxious heart inexplicably calmed down, and she felt incredibly fortunate to still have Ji Jingshen by her side.
The very next morning, Ji Jingshen instructed his secretary to withdraw his investment and shares, thus ceasing control over the development of the Cheng Group.
As soon as they made their move, Cheng Linhao received the news and was very pleased with Ji Jingshen and his group for being sensible.
This step was merely a test of their bottom line, and it seemed to have been very successful. He glanced discreetly at Song Qianyu, who was resting in the corner, and put the newly issued SIM card into his phone.
"I see Mr. Ji's sincerity, but if you want me to release Song Qianyu, then you should exchange your company's core confidential technology with me. Otherwise, I can't guarantee her safe return."
"After all, you saw the video yesterday. My group of underlings were very dissatisfied with her. Although I wanted her to live, I couldn't stop them because there were too many of them."
Song Qianyi was so angry that he burst out laughing. His plan had already been exposed. Once the technology was given to Cheng Linhao, he would have the confidence to severely damage the Ji Group and the capital to make a comeback.
This desire to get something for free is completely undisguised.
"You're more likely to dream about that!"
Cheng Linhao was not in a hurry when Song Qianyi rejected him. Instead, he played her a pre-recorded scream.
Although the voice was altered, it was impossible to tell that the other person was in pain; they must have been abused.
"How about that? If you don't believe me, I can do a live broadcast and let you see for yourselves how Song Qianyu is being abused."
The man's tone was excited, as if he couldn't wait to show them.
The two women, Song's mother and her husband, who had gotten up early in the morning and were sitting in the living room waiting for news, also overheard the contents of the phone call.
Especially after hearing the screams and pleas for mercy, she almost fainted from crying. Upon hearing Cheng Linhao's request, she immediately stepped forward and snatched Ji Jingshen's phone.
"We promise you, we promise you, please don't hurt Xiaoyu, she's pregnant, and that's your child too!"
The other party scoffed, "Once I make a comeback, I can have as many children and women as I want. What is Song Qianyu? If you really want Song Qianyu to live, then do as I say."
"I'm only giving you three days to let Ji Jingshen sort everything out, or you can expect to be collecting Song Qianyu's corpse."
Song's mother nodded repeatedly, and only after the other party hung up the phone did she look at Ji Jingshen and the other person who had been silent the whole time.
"Jing Shen, hurry up..."
Song's mother looked anxiously at Ji Jingshen, wanting him to hurry up and prepare according to Cheng Linhao's instructions, but when she looked up, she saw the cold faces of the two people opposite her and the words she was about to say were instantly stuck in her throat.
"Why did you agree so quickly? If you had delayed a bit, you might have been able to pinpoint the exact location! We finally got a call from Cheng Linhao, and you ruined it all!"
Song Qianyi was furious. She had already discussed it with the police last night. Cheng Linhao was definitely trying to threaten them and make demands by posting that video online.
