After hanging up the phone, Ning Yuya hailed a cab and made her way to the hospital.
Ning Yuya had no idea what exactly was going on. Why didn’t the Wen Family mention anything about Wen Xinya’s abduction? Could it be that the military had kept it confidential?
She could not help but shiver, thinking herself that that must have been the case.
She felt thankful that she did not inform Xia Ruya that the military had locked her up.
However, was Wen Xinya dead or alive now?
Ning Yuya arrived at the hospital, where she chanced upon Zhou Tianyu, who was talking to the girl beside her, with Xu Zhenyu, Han Mofeng, Gu Junling, and Ling Qingxuan following closely behind. She was overwhelmed with an ominous feeling.
Ning Shuqian lied down on the bed and switched the television channels with the mobile phone. When she saw the disheveled Ning Yuya, she dropped the remote on the ground and exclaimed agitatedly, “Yu… Yuya! Where did you go? I couldn’t get through to you at all. Are you out to worry me!?!”
It had been two days since she last contacted Ning Yuya and she almost broke down in despair. If it weren’t because of Xia Ruya comforting her, she would have long called the police.
Sobbing, Ning Yuya said, “Mother, I thought I wouldn’t be able to see you again. They locked me up in a dark room and left me to fend for myself. I was really terrified and scared…”
Upon hearing her words, Ning Yuya shivered and asked, “Yuya, what exactly happened? Why are you in such a state? Hurry and tell me!”
She finally realized that her daughter was dressed in a revealing, black-colored bandeau top and a pair of short-shorts. Her clothes were crumpled and her makeup had also smudged. She looked extremely unkempt.
“Mother…” Ning Yuya spilled the beans about her meeting Wen Xinya at the bar and Wen Xinya getting abducted, followed by the military arresting her.
Greatly taken aback, Ning Shuqian asked worriedly, “Yuya, they didn’t hurt you, did they!?!”
Wen Xinya actually got kidnapped? Even the military was deployed. Ning Shuqian could not believe it at all.
Shaking her head, Ning Yuya answered, “No, they just kept interrogating me.”
Ning Shuqian heaved a sigh of relief. She flew into a rage at the thought of Wen Xinya being the cause behind the arrest. “Yuya, it’s been hard on you. It was such a disaster. That bitch Wen Xinya deserves to be kidnapped for being so wicked. Why do you have to be implicated too? That’s unfair.”
Ning Yuya also was extremely exasperated. Her smudged makeup made her look even more ghastly. “That jinx Wen Xinya really brings trouble to everyone who goes near her. Why does the Wen Family even treat her like a gem?”
She was again reminded of Wen Xinya’s coming-of-age ceremony, during which Old Mr. Wen gifted her with five percent of the Wen Corporation’s shares in order to give her more attention. She was extremely exasperated.
Ning Shuqian rolled her eyes and held onto Ning Yuya’s hand. “Yuya, what exactly happened to Wen Xinya? How is she now? Is she dead or alive?”
After recovering from the shock, Ning Shuqian could no longer hide her joy. She thought to herself, That bitch Wen Xinya landed me in such a horrible plight. Serves her right for getting kidnapped. I really hope they killed her and made her die a horrible death.
Shaking her head, Ning Yuya answered, “I don’t know about the exact details, but neither the Wen Family nor the media have released any news about the abduction. However, I saw Wen Xinya’s friends, Miss Zhou, the successor of the Gu Family, Gu Junling, and the rest.”
Ning Shuqian was flabbergasted. She then gritted her teeth and punched the duvet. “Wen Xinya has probably been rescued by the military! They must have been here to visit that bitch Wen Xinya. Otherwise, how could there be such a coincidence?”
She felt extremely bored in the hospital. Apart from reading some newspapers, all she did was watch television. Hence, she had read the reports of the terrorists and even watched the video of the attacks. Staring at their ruthless actions, she knew that they were cruel and inhumane.
She thought that Wen Xinya would definitely be dead after getting kidnapped by them.
Yet, the military actually intervened and rescued Wen Xinya. She immediately turned pale, wishing she could rip Wen Xinya into pieces.
Ning Shuqian vaguely guessed that Wen Xinya was still alive, though she refused to believe it. She was overwhelmed with resentment and exclaimed, “I didn’t expect that bitch to still be alive!”
Although Ning Shuqian was infuriated, she sneered. “Yuya, those terrorists were the ones who abducted Wen Xinya! Even if she’s rescued, she’s probably severely injured.”
A few years ago, one of the wealthy heiresses of the upper-class society had been kidnapped and returned with lots of injuries. Not only was she tormented, but she had also been gang-raped. Later on, the news of the mishap was leaked and the heiress decided to hang herself because she could not take the harsh criticism. It took the entire city by storm.
She refused to believe that Wen Xinya would remain unscathed even after landing in the hands of those beasts.
Ning Yuya’s eyes lit up and she said sinisterly, “Mother, you’re right. Those terrorists are inhumane. How could Wen Xinya possibly stay unscathed? Besides… she’s still in the hospital now; that says a lot about her plight. Mother… do you think the Wen Family is being secretive because Wen Xinya…”
(Has met with a mishap that would embarrass the Wen Family!)
Appearing menacing, Ning Shuqian said, “Yuya, the Wen Family is so cold and heartless to us. It’s time for us to take revenge. This time, we must tarnish Wen Xinya’s reputation and make the Wen Family abandon her.”
Ning Yuya looked terrifyingly excited.
Xia Ruya was standing outside the ward with her back plastered to the cold and hard wall. She had previously asked Ning Yuya about the identity of the abductors, to which Ning Yuya refused to speak and instead hummed and hawed. She knew since then, probing would be redundant and would even raise suspicions. Hence, she decided to follow her to the hospital and eavesdrop.
She finally heard that the abductors turned out to be…
She also knew that Ning Yuya did not implicate her and heaved a sigh of relief.
However, at the same time, she could not help but feel worried about the possibility that the abductors might mention her name. She would then become an accomplice.
She closed her eyes and shuddered when a cold chill was sent down her spine.
It seemed that her plans for a vacation in France were foiled. If she were to go overseas now, the intelligent Wen Xinya would definitely guess that she was the culprit.
