So, Emma immediately called Luke. By this time, Luke had roughly figured out the direction that Lin Qian had gone after an entire night of searching. However, the locals all told him that barely any people had ever walked out of the depths of the gorge alive and that people rarely went in there because it was so dangerous.
Luke immediately contacted the local police and began a search in hopes that they weren’t too late.
…
As Lin Qian and Ningxiang walked together, Ningxiang still had the feeling that something wasn’t right.
“Miss Lin, it’s not that I want to be pessimistic, but there’s something I want to clarify with you.”
Lin Qian looked at Ningxiang and nodded her head, “Go ahead, tell me what it is.”
“The two brothers last night claimed that they were shepherds, but I couldn’t find the smell of sheep on either of them. Plus, their skin was too fine and soft to be farmers. Above all, the older brother claimed that he saw a soldier run into the depths of the gorge, but it didn’t make sense for someone that’s fighting for survival to run deeper into the wild. An average person may have gone the wrong way, but he’s in the military and the air force. He should have a good sense of direction and be familiar with the geography here.”
“Are you saying that they have other intentions?” Lin Qian deciphered. “I actually thought the same thing after a night of thinking, but I wanted to believe that there was still hope before me. I wanted to see if the brothers would chase after us, but I also wanted to lie to myself.”
“At least we stopped in time.”
“Let’s turn back, then.”
“Huh?” Ningxiang thought she was hearing things.
“You heard right. I said to turn back. My husband is a righteous man who is willing to lay his life for the country. If I insist on going ahead and accidentally hurt you, then I would be going against his beliefs. Even if I end up finding him, he won’t forgive me.”
“Besides, you’re right, he’s not the kind of person that would wander deeper into the gorge. Let’s go back and look for other clues.”
“It seems, you’ve still got your logic,” Ningxiang laughed. “I thought…”
“I will not stop my search because I have a feeling he is still alive.”
“In that case, what do you plan to do to the two brothers?”
“Let’s return to the village first and we’ll draft up a new plan,” Lin Qian replied.
“OK…”
The brothers thought they had succeeded, so they quickly reported to President Fan. However, they received nothing as a reward because President Fan was stressing over how to keep his wife and daughter in New York instead.
Unable to think of a solution, President Fan ended up calling his grandfather. But, his grandfather simply yelled at him after hearing what had happened, “You idiot! You made a huge loss because you were focused on something little. Let’s see how you pull out of this one!”
“Grandfather! You need to help me! Otherwise, I’m over!”
“How are you supposed to compete against the power of the Roborts Family and Miller Family in New York? If you continue to blow up this situation, you will be the only one that suffers in the end. It’s time to stop!”
“But, I’m not sure if Emma knows something. I’m wondering if…”
“r*bbish! Don’t even think about it. Don’t you know Emma’s level of influence in New York? How dare you provoke her? A small argument may have been OK, but don’t create something bigger! Otherwise, Eric is going to skin you alive…”
“Let entertainment matters end within the entertainment industry, don’t let it spread to other places where it can no longer be controlled. Above all, don’t get the police involved. How many incidences do you think you’ll be able to survive?”
“Are you saying that I’m not allowed to get revenge?” President Fan asked unhappily, “That’s completely unfair!”
Luckily, Lin Qian had already headed into the gorge and Emma couldn’t possibly locate her any time soon. This was his only consolation.
However, he had no idea that Lin Qian had already returned to the village on her own.
After returning to the village, the first thing that Lin Qian heard was that Luke had been looking everywhere for her. She knew that she had done something wrong by Emma, but she didn’t want to share her unhappiness.
However, Luke quickly received news that Lin Qian had returned to the hostel. As soon as he saw her again, he finally relaxed.
“Did you know that you caused us to go on quite a search? Because of you, the Madam and President Fan were one step away from pointing guns at each other.”
“So, the two brothers that were following me were sent by President Fan?” Lin Qian finally understood why she had been lured into the gorge.
“What do you think? At least you didn’t disappoint us and still maintained your sense of judgment. The Madam didn’t waste her time protecting you in the end…”
“So, have you guys caught the two men yet?” Lin Qian asked.
“We’ve already pinpointed their location. Do you want to play with them?” Luke asked as he raised an eyebrow.
“Of course,” Lin Qian replied as she raised her head. She would never let go of an opportunity like this. Especially since these guys tried to trick her with Li Jin’s name.
“As for Li Jin, you shouldn’t worry too much, we will definitely hear from him.”
“I know,” Lin Qian replied confidently. “I can feel that he’s still alive. He’s definitely still alive.”
“Great, let’s go then. The two men are currently eating in the dining room,” Luke said as he glanced towards the dining room.
“Go greet them first. I’ll be right over.”
Luke nodded his head and led his men towards the dining room. He then sat down right beside the two men, “According to the hostel owner, the two of you have been trailing Lin Qian for a good few days now.”
As soon as the two men saw Luke, they immediately recognized him, so they began to avoid his gaze…
“Are you speaking to the wrong people?”
“Weren’t you the ones that lured Lin Qian into the gorge? And weren’t you the ones that pretended to be shepherds?” Luke laughed as he crossed his arms. “President Fan’s men don’t seem very smart.”
Realizing that their identities had been exposed, the two men did not hide anymore as they straightforwardly replied, “There’s no point mocking us, we each work for our own bosses. Lin Qian has already headed into the gorge. If you are capable, you should go bring her back. Who knows, she might have already been eaten up by a wild animal by now.”
“Do you really think that Superstar Media’s people would be as brainless as the two of you?” Luke laughed as he pointed to their heads.
“What are you trying to say?”
Luke looked behind the two men and pointed his chin towards the distance, “Have a look for yourself…”
The two men turned around at the same time and saw Lin Qian walking towards them, unscathed.
The two men were so shocked that their eyes nearly popped out of their sockets…
“This…how’s this possible?”
“I saw her walk towards the gorge with my own two eyes.”
At this moment, without hesitation, Lin Qian walked over to the two men and emptied a cup of boiling hot coffee onto one of the men’s head, “r*bbish…”
“Ahhh…”
Bloodcurdling cries echoed through the hostel as everyone turned their attention towards Lin Qian and the two men. However, Luke blocked their view while the hostel owner told his guests, “Those men tried to sell someone’s child and was caught red-handed.”
As soon as the guests heard this, they gritted their teeth and agreed, “People like that deserve to be punished!”
Therefore, the two men were burnt by scorching coffee, but no one came to their aid.
Meanwhile, Luke waited until Lin Qian completely released her anger before he called the hospital.
“Now that you’ve released your anger, do you feel a lot better?”
Lin Qian lowered her head and suddenly thought of Li Jin, “Better does not exist in my dictionary at the moment. I simply want to see him alive…”
“You will,” Luke said as he patted Lin Qian on the shoulder. At this moment, just as Lin Qian turned on her phone, she suddenly received a phone call from an anonymous number.
As soon as Lin Qian saw this, she emotionally picked up the call, “Li Jin, is that you? Li Jin?”
“Sister-in-law, I’m not the chief, but I can tell you a piece of good news. The chief is fine, he was saved last night and is currently back in New York. They transferred him overnight.”
“Is he really fine?” Lin Qian confirmed.
“Yes, he’s fine. But…he won’t be able to return home for a little while.”
“Where is he? I’ll come look for him…”
