Chapter 309 - Searching

"Zi Er, I don't know Auntie's location at the moment so, I can't tell you how she is right now. But don't worry, I am still searching for her. We will find her whereabouts before today runs out," Shiyi assured before he started working on his computer once again.

"Who could want to harm Auntie...,"

"Do you even need to ask, of course, it must be that psychopath lady, Zhao Liying," Yang Zi replied fiercely?

"If she dares as much as lay a finger on my mum, I promise to deliver her all the corpse of those she loves. I will kill each and everyone she loves to avenge my mum," Yang Zi said furiously. Seeing that Yang Zi wasn't herself, Shui Shui quickly embraced her.

"Zi Er, calm down. I am certain Auntie is alright. I am also certain that she wouldn't have wanted to see you in this state so, relax," Shui Shui said as she patted her back. Her warm embrace was all that Yang Zi needed to ease her anger a bit.

"Shiyi, while you work, let me call my men watching Zhao Liying and her friend's hospital room to confirm whether or not she is in the hospital," Yang Zi said before she stepped out of the room to make a call. It was while she was on the phone with her men that Feng Shu arrived.

They both went to the secret room together. The moment they stepped foot into the secret room, Feng Shu was shocked to see that such a room existed in that beautiful mansion.

I wonder why Young Miss would need such a room. Is she involved in anything illegal?

Feng Shu thought as she scrutinised the entire room. She was too engrossed staring at the room to watch the stairs.

"Watch your steps," Shui Shui who just turned around to see Yang Zi and Feng Shu coming down the stairs warned.

Feng Shu who almost missed a step was able to prevent that all thanks to Shui Shui's warning.

"Zi Er, what did your men guarding Zhao Liying said? Is she still in her hospital room?" Shui Shui asked when Yang Zi and Feng Shu got to where she was standing.

"Yes, they confirmed that she is lying on her bed," Yang Zi announced to the disappointment of Shui Shui.

"So, if she isn't the one who abducted Auntie then who did?" Shui Shui asked as she turned to face the screen which had different CCTV footage.

"I don't know who is so gutsy to abduct my mum...,"

"Young Miss, your mum was abducted?" Feng Shu asked in surprise, as she took turns in staring at their faces. While they were talking, Shiyi was busy hacking into all nearby CCTV close to the mall.

"Yes...,"

"Then why haven't you reported it to the police?" Feng Shu asked.

"Because Zi Er doesn't trust the police and it hasn't been twenty-four hours since she went missing so the police won't do anything about it," Shui Shui explained.

"What about the boss? I am sure he could help you if he learns about it so, how about you announce the news to him?" Feng Shu asked. She could not understand why the Young Miss was keeping such important news from the boss.

"He is in an important meeting right now. He mustn't be disturbed. You, Shui Shui, Shiyi and I can handle this. And to answer your previous question, Shiyi is a thousand times more efficient than the police, he will find the whereabouts of my mum in no time," Yang Zi assured as she turned to look at the CCTV footage.

"Zi Er, I feel great that you are praising my skills but can you guys step out? You guys presence is distracting me. I can't focus," Shiyi said, as he momentarily stopped typing. He racked his knuckles before he starts working again.

"Guys, let's leave him alone. He works best when nobody is around," Shui Shui said, as she held their hands and pulled them along with her.

....

Back in the room the meeting was held, Yifeng got so anxious when the leader of his security guard repeatedly called his line.

"For Guangzhou to have repeatedly called me, I guess something is wrong," Yifeng said, as he answered his call.

"What!" Yifeng shouted in total bewilderment after Guangzhou relayed the news of Mrs Yang's abduction. He completely forgot that he was in an important meeting with very important clients. Even when he saw their questioning glares focused on him, he could not compose himself.

"Yuan Quan, something urgent came up, I have to leave right now. Help me inform Mr Tang to take over," Yifeng whispered into Yuan Quan's ears. Yuan Quan gave Yifeng a disapproving gaze when he heard what his boss wanted to do.

"But...,"

"No questioning, Yuan Quan. Just quietly inform Mr Tang sitting over there to continue with the meeting. I will formally apologise to our clients after I settle this urgent business," Yifeng said before he immediately excused himself. The clients started whispering after Yifeng left but Mr Tang and Yuan Quan managed to calm them down.

Back in the sitting room, Feng Shu sitting on a couch opposite that of Shui Shui and Yang Zi let her eyes wander around the huge sitting room. From the expression on her pretty face, Shui Shui could tell that she had a lot of questions but neither she nor Yang Zi was in the mood to chat.

"Young Miss, where is this place? Your personal property?" Feng Shu let her curiosity get the best of her.

"It's our hideout. Shiyi, Zi Er and I usually hang out here whenever we were less busy in the past," Shui Shui explained. She turned and stared at Yang Zi whose head was resting against her shoulders.

"Oh...," Feng Shu said in realisation.

"If this place is where you three normally hang out then, what is that room filled with screens for...,"

"Feng Shu, can you keep quiet for some time? Your voice is kinda disturbing me. I hope you understand," Yang Zi said before she closed her eyes.

Young Miss is really in bad mood. I wish everything will get sorted so, I can see the once caring and friendly Young Miss.

Feng Shu thought as she shifted her gaze away from Yang Zi.
