Gu Yusheng frowned and asked, âDo you know who she usually hangs out with?â
After giving it a bit of thought, Lu Bancheng provided him with many names: Ms. Yang, Ms. Li, Ms. Sun, and a few more. Hearing so many names gave Gu Yusheng a headache. He asked Lu Bancheng directly, âCan you help me call them one by one to see who sheâs with?â
Lu Bancheng called Gu Yusheng back in about ten minutes, but he didnât give Gu Yusheng the answer he wanted. Liang Doukou wasnât with any of them.
Liang Doukou and Lu Bancheng had known each other since they were little and had been good friends for years. If Lu Bancheng thought those people were good friends with Liang Doukou, it should have been very close to the truth, and some of them should have known where she was.
Gu Yusheng wondered if she had other good friends that Lu Bancheng didnât know about.
It was pretty safe in Beijing. There were many women walking on the streets late at night, and they were safe. Nothing usually happened to them. Despite this, Gu Yusheng kept wondering if something had happened to her.
Gu Yusheng felt like his head was going to explode soon. He leaned on the sofa and lifted his hand up to rub between his eyebrows.
What was he so nervous about? Hadnât he gone through a lot? How could he be so anxious about a woman? He could accurately and quickly disarm a bomb in thirty seconds without heavy breathing or sweat like it was just a game when he was in the military.
That was right. He just needed to calm down, calm down.
Gu Yusheng took two deep breaths with his eyes closed to force himself to calm down. After he thought for a while, he took out his cell phone and called Xiaowang. âCan you check Liang Doukouâs recent work schedule?â
He was so dumb. How could he forget she was famous?
Her half yearâs work schedule had been scheduled since she had signed contracts with other companies. She could avoid him but she couldnât avoid work. She still had to go to work.
As long as he knew her recent work schedule, he could easily find her and take her back.
Gu Yusheng finally felt a little more peaceful after the phone call. He rested his eyes and waited patiently for Xiaowang to call back.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
His cell phone started to ring after a minute.
Xiaowang is fast this time, Gu Yusheng thought to himself. He picked up the phone and wanted to answer it on instinct. However, he saw it wasnât Xiaowang calling. It showed âunknown callâ on the screen.
Gu Yusheng waited a bit before he answered it. He raised the phone to his ear, but didnât speak. An obnoxious voice came from the phone. âMaster Gu, do you know who I am?â
Gu Yusheng still kept quiet. The look on his face didnât change. It looked like he wasnât curious about who had called him.
âIt doesnât matter if you know me or not, Master Gu.â The man on the other end of the line paused purposely for a second before he continued, âMaster Gu, as long as you know who Liang Doukou is, it will be all right.â
âLiang Doukou?â Gu Yusheng frowned and finally asked, âWhat do you mean?â
âLast night, at 9:47, Liang Doukou ran out of your house. She only had pajamas and slippers on. She didnât even take her purse or cell phone with her.â
Gu Yushengâs face suddenly changed. He looked very cold. âWho are you? Where did you take her?â
The man immediately laughed when he heard Gu Yusheng. âMaster Gu, you are very smart.â
