Chapter 215: Borrow a batch of special forces soldiers for me
Just then, Tan Haoyu's phone rang again.
He looked up and saw it was Liu Zhidong calling: "Haoyu, I'm all ready. Shall we meet at the mall?"
"Okay, I'll be right there." Tan Haoyu hung up the phone and hurried off.
On his way to the mall, Tan Haoyu clenched his fists tightly, his heart filled with fear.
The moment he heard Tan Xiaoxuan say that Zhu Ziqing was missing, his mind went blank, and he was momentarily stunned. When he came to his senses, his heart felt like it was being gripped by an invisible hand, and even breathing became difficult. He couldn't bear to imagine what Zhu Ziqing might be going through now; what if something had happened to that gentle and kind girl…
Tan Haoyu shook his head violently. No, he absolutely would not allow such a thing to happen!
He then realized that Zhu Ziqing had long been the most important person in his life, along with their unborn child. He secretly vowed to find her as quickly as possible, to protect her and their child, and to ensure they suffered no harm whatsoever!
Soon, Tan Haoyu calmed down and began to carry out his emergency plan in an orderly manner.
Yang Piaoliang and Liu Meili also rushed to their respective posts and took full action.
Tan Haoyu and Liu Zhidong meet at Tianyin Shopping Mall, and a tense search and rescue operation is about to begin.
At this moment, Tan Haoyu's worry and love for Zhu Ziqing were on full display. He knew clearly what Zhu Ziqing and the child meant to him, and he was determined to find them at all costs. Anyone who dared to harm them would pay a terrible price!
……
Zhu Ziqing was roughly pushed into the van by two strong men.
The driver was already prepared and quickly started the car.
Zhu Ziqing stumbled and was taken away by the car before she could even sit properly.
Immediately afterwards, one of the hostage-takers quickly pulled out a black cloth and blindfolded Zhu Ziqing.
In an instant, everything went black before her eyes, and she was gripped by extreme panic. Her heart began to pound wildly, and she instinctively clutched her slightly protruding belly with both hands.
"Don't hurt my child..." Zhu Ziqing murmured, her voice trembling and choked with sobs.
At this moment, her mind was filled with the image of the child in her womb. Thinking about the child's imminent arrival in this world, a strong protective instinct welled up within her. No matter what, she was determined to protect the child from harm.
The car moved slowly forward. Zhu Ziqing suppressed her fear and strained her ears to judge her surroundings.
She heard noises outside the car, and the vehicles were moving slowly; she knew the car had merged into the city's traffic.
The car moved intermittently, as if waiting at a traffic light. This continued for quite a while before finally accelerating.
About half an hour later, the car suddenly jolted violently before coming to a slow stop.
"We've arrived. Get off!" a rough, hoarse voice rang out.
Zhu Ziqing was dragged out of the car and led for a while until they arrived at a certain place. There, she overheard a conversation between the hostage-takers.
"Damn it, this is really unlucky. We were planning to kidnap Tan Xiaoxuan, but we ended up bringing her here instead!" a man complained.
Another man chimed in, "Who cares about her? This woman isn't bad either. It seems she's carrying the CEO of the Sunshine Group's child. She's worth way more than that girl Tan Xiaoxuan!"
A man known as Brother Qiang asked, "Are you sure she's carrying the boss's child?"
“No mistake, we’ve been watching for a long time,” one of the men quickly replied.
Upon hearing these words, Zhu Ziqing was startled. She caught the key words "Tan family's little girl" and "valuable" in the conversation and instantly deduced that the original kidnapping target was Tan Xiaoxuan, and the purpose was money.
She thought to herself that they weren't kidnapping her out of revenge, so they probably wouldn't easily kill her and her child. With that thought, she felt a little relieved.
At the same time, she realized that the kidnappers were not entirely sure about her relationship with Tan Haoyu and were waiting for her answer.
Zhu Ziqing understood why the Tan family always kept a low profile—it was to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Just like Tan Xiaoxuan, who usually uses the English name Aimee and has never publicly revealed her Tan family identity.
Very few people know the true identity of Jack Tan, the head of the Sunshine Group, also known as Tan Haoyu.
Even she herself only learned Tan Haoyu's true identity after marriage.
At this moment, Zhu Ziqing was racking her brains trying to figure out how to answer the hostage-taker's questions.
Suddenly, the first man spoke up: "Since you say you're Jack Tan's woman, then use your phone to call him and tell him to prepare the ransom!"
……
In the conference room, Tan Haoyu sat upright, his hands clenched tightly, his knuckles trembling from the force.
His gaze was sinister, and he exuded a chilling aura that seemed to freeze the surrounding air.
On the phone screen in front of him, various message notifications kept flashing. He stared intently at the screen, quickly analyzing the situation.
“Mr. Yan has always kept to himself and me, so it’s impossible for him to make a move against her at this time. Zhu Yahan and Zhu Shigou… haven’t shown any unusual activity recently, so they can be ruled out as suspects.” Tan Haoyu muttered to himself, his voice low and cold, “Who else could possibly be targeting Qing’er?”
His brow furrowed, and a series of possible enemies flashed through his mind. He meticulously analyzed each name, leaving no detail overlooked.
The car suddenly stopped in front of Tianyin Shopping Mall, the tires screeching as they rubbed against the ground.
Tan Haoyu quickly pushed open the car door and strode out, with Yang Piaoliang and Liu Meili following closely behind.
"President Tan, all major roads in Pengcheng City have been blocked off; not even a fly can get out." Liu Meili stepped forward quickly and reported in a crisp voice.
Yang Piaoliang quickly handed over a tablet computer, on which was the mall's surveillance video: "President Tan, look, this is the surveillance footage, confirming that Ms. Zhu Ziqing was taken out of the mall by two men."
Tan Haoyu took the tablet computer and stared intently at the screen.
In the video, Zhu Ziqing, wearing a white maternity dress, is seen being hurriedly leaving the mall through the back door, flanked by two men.
Just as she was being led away, Zhu Ziqing subconsciously looked back, and the surveillance camera clearly captured her nervous and flustered expression.
“Qing’er…” Tan Haoyu looked at his panicked lover in the video and felt heartbroken. He secretly vowed, “I will definitely find you, protect you and the child, and never let you get hurt.”
