Chapter 306 Proof

306 Proof

Xia Family Mansion...

"I have found their location but the place is heavily guarded," Xia Liqin informed.

After finding out that Lu Mengjie had been kidnapped by someone from Yong Liwei, Xia Liqin began tracking his sister. He hadn't told his parents about what happened and instead, told them that she had moved to his place. Xia Liqin knew that he should have told his parents but for some reason, Yong Liwei had advised him not to do so.

"Mr. Yong, Xue Lihua messaged me. She told me that Acari and his men are in that place."

Scorpion furrowed his brows deeply. "Acari?"

Among the Arachnid's divisions, the ruthless among them was the team that was under Acari's. Acari was one of the best among the team leaders and he was ranked second in the group. He was one of Chen Yuyan's most trusted men. The only reason he probably followed Si Guanlin was because he was Chen Yuyan's fiancé.

"I don't think Acari will try to harm Mr. Yong." Scorpion spoke up.

"We are not sure of that, Acari harmed brother Zhizhu!" Wei Sianqi exclaimed. After what happened to Spider, there was no way she was going to trust that person.

"But he didn't kill him." Back in the day, the leaders of Arachnids were faithful and close with each other. That's why Scorpion wanted to believe that Acari must have another reason why he tried to harm Spider. "If he wanted to kill Spider, he would have already done it. I know him. He's the type of person who wouldn't leave his target until he made sure that person was dead."

"If I hadn't arrived in time, brother Zhizhu could have bled to death!" She clenched her fists and turned to Yong Liwei. "Mr. Yong, we should be careful especially if Acari is there."

"Wei Sianqi is right," Xia Liqin said, agreeing with her words. "Enemy or not, that guy Acari is working together with the person who kidnapped my sister. That's enough reason not to trust him."

Xia Liqin had a hard time tracking his sister but thanks to his newly developed AI, Apple, he was able to do it without being detected by 'Virus', the AI Sebby had warned him about. Kuro, the AI that had been assisting Lu Mengjie had been corrupted and because of that, the moment Sebby detected his corruption, he notified him and they were forced to delete him. "Acari is Si Guanlin's right-hand man..." Yong Liwei cupped his chin. "If he's there then that only means that it is most likely because of Si Guanlin's doing."

Scorpion clenched his fists tightly. As much as he wanted to prove that Acari was not their enemy but upon hearing Yong Liwei's words, there was a huge possibility that he turned his back on his Arachnid brothers.

"Well, well, well. I'm surprised that you came back."

Yong Liwei's eyes darkened upon hearing Cian's voice in the other line. "Cian."

Upon hearing the name, everyone's attention landed on him. No one dared to make a noise as they listened to the conversation when Yong Liwei put the call on speaker.

"Have you prepared the divorce papers?" Cian's voice resounded in the room.

Yong Liwei tightened his hold around his phone. He could not allow his anger and temper to get ahead of him. "Do you think I'll comply after you kidnapped her?"

"Of course!" He laughed. "You don't want me to release those photos, don't you? If you don't do what I want, should I send you his head? What's his name again? Spider?"

Scorpion was about to say something but Skeleton was quick enough to cover his mouth and stop him. "Calm down, Scorpion," he said with a hushed tone.

Yong Liwei gritted his teeth. He knew that he was in no position to compromise at all. "I need proof that my wife and Spider are alive."

"I'm rather hurt to hear that you're doubting me, Yong Liwei. I will never hurt Mengmeng."

"Then give me proof."

Cian's line became quiet for a few seconds. Faint footsteps were heard then a creaking of a door.

"What are you doing here, Cian?" Lu Mengjie's voice was heard on the other side of the call.

The moment Yong Liwei heard her voice, his heart trembled. In an instant, relief filled his body. It had been a week since he last heard her voice and he had been restless ever since. "Mengjie?"
