Upon hearing Lin Che’s phone ring, Yu Minmin said to her, “Quick, take the call and find out what’s happening.”

Lin Che answered the call. “How are things?”

Gu Jingze said, “I’ve already sent people there to take a look. I’ve also gotten a lip-reading expert to tell us exactly what she was saying. Lin Che, are you still on set?”

Lin Che said, “Yes. I’m waiting to see if she will return.”

“Come to the entrance.”

Lin Che froze. Then, he said, “If not, I’ll go in and look for you?”

Only then did she suddenly realize what was happening.

He was talking about this entrance.

She let out an “ah” before hastily saying, “I- I- I’m going to meet you.”

Lin Che rushed out.

She said to Yu Minmin, “Sorry, I’m going out for a bit. Gu Jingze is here.”

“Huh? Oh, oh.”

Of course, Lin Che did not want Gu Jingze to come in. What would happen then?

Lin Che ran out as quickly as she could. The moment she saw the car outside, she knew that the luxury car had to be Gu Jingze’s. She rushed over and asked, “Gu Jingze, why are you here?”

Gu Jingze opened the door to the car for her to get in.

H looked at the troubled expression on her face. Sure enough, she looked just as weary as he had expected.

After she got into the car, he looked at her, frowned, and said, “In the first place, it’s not your fault that this happened. You don’t have to be so worried. Relax and let me handle it. I’ve already instructed some people to look for her. She can’t go that far either. The traffic across the entire B City is under surveillance. Anyone who tries to take her out of the city will be discovered immediately. Regardless of who it is, they will definitely be discovered unless they brave through the deep mountains. So you can put your heart at ease.”

Lin Che breathed in deeply in an attempt to make herself appear more relaxed. However, the corners of her mouth twitched to reveal a grimace.

However, she felt slightly better now that she had seen Gu Jingze. She looked at him and asked, “But why did you suddenly come over? Was it just because you were worried about me?”

Gu Jingze said, “I thought that your thoughts would definitely run wild. Was I right about that?”

He was right.

Lin Che winced. But when she looked at Gu Jingze again, she thought to herself that if that was the case, he could have gotten here earlier. He must have come only now because something had held him up. For someone like Gu Jingze, he would have immediately came here if he had these intentions.

However, if he only came here now…

“Could it be that you were handling other matters earlier?”

“Hn. I was in the midst of a meeting for a new product launch,” Gu Jingze said coolly.

Immediately, Lin Che said in surprise, “No way. So, you were in a meeting when you called me a few times earlier?”

“Hn.”

“Alright…”

Lin Che thought that she was a little reliant on him. When problems arose, she always felt that they could always be resolved as long as he was around.

Still, it was probably because she worshipped him too much.

That was why she had called him many times earlier too.

Oh, great! She wondered how many people had heard her successive calls to him during his meeting.

Lin Che could not help but think about what the other people in the meeting room had been doing when she called. “Then, what did the others do when you picked up my call? Did you go out to answer it?”

Although she did not think that it was possible, she nevertheless hoped that he had.

However, Gu Jingze said, “I told them to pause the meeting.”

“…”

Lin Che imagined the scene in her mind. While everyone was in the meeting, Gu Jingze shouted for them to stop and the senior officers who were in the midst of speaking immediately stopped. That feeling…

Was really strange.

She felt especially guilty at the thought that this had happened only because of her call.

Lin Che said, “Alright. To be honest, I’m already fine. Really. You didn’t have to come here especially.”

“Are you really alright?” He looked down and stared at her silently with his glassy eyes.

Unable to withstand the watchful gaze of his jet-black eyes, Lin Che pushed him on the chest. “Stop it. I just want to find Yunshi quickly. She’s still so young after all. It’s too dangerous. What’s more is that she’s such a beautiful little girl. She will definitely be in even more danger because of this.”

Gu Jingze quietly kissed her forehead as if to console her. Lifting her face with his large hand, he caressed her face. “Listen to me. Why don’t you come home with me first? We’ll look for her slowly.”

“No need for that. I’ll feel more at ease here. Really. I’ll be fine.”

Gu Jingze looked at her silently. He knew that although she looked muddle-headed and easy to convince, she would not easily change her mind once she had made her decision.

Thus, Gu Jingze said, “Alright. I’ll instruct more people to look for her.”

After Lin Che went back inside, Yu Minmin stood up and said, “No way. Gu Jingze loves you too much. He actually came here to look for you. He must love you dearly to have rushed here so soon.”

Lin Che said, “Stop spouting nonsense! Can’t he come to ask about the situation?”

“Of course not. I’m just saying that Gu Jingze genuinely treats you very well.”

Lin Che said, “Fine then. I can’t be bothered to talk to you about this. But Gu Jingze said that he asked a lip-reading expert to analyze what Yunshi said.”

Yu Minmin said, “Oh… as expected of Gu Jingze. He could even find a lip-reading expert. How professional.”

Lin Che said, “I hope we can find her as soon as possible.”

Just then, the anxious production crew had already found new leads.

As soon as the director knew that there were more clues, he quickly walked up to them and said, “Lin Che, we just found out that the person who took that girl away seems to be a temporary actor in the crew. He’s very handsome. We reckon that the little lady probably followed him elsewhere because she liked playing with him. After all, his good looks made him likable.”

Lin Che immediately replied, “Are you able to contact this person now?”

“We’re having some trouble contacting him. He hasn’t been answering at all. But we have located the few places where this person can often be found.”

Lin Che said, “In that case, let me know the address first, Director.”

The director placed a piece of paper down.

Lin Che read the addresses on the paper and saw that they were all strange places; there was a pub, a bar, a club, and a game hall.

Lin Che asked, “Will he bring Yunshi to these places?”

The director responded, “Although these places seem to be very ordinary, in actual fact, they are places that fanatics go to. They’re not just simple pubs.”

Lin Che said to the director, “Director, thank you for helping us get the addresses.”

The director hastily replied, “No problem, no problem. This is something we have to do. I hope it helps at least a little.”

Lin Che escorted the director out and looked at the piece of paper with Yu Minmin.

Lin Che said, “Even though Gu Jingze is already looking for her, let’s go and look for her too. A blind cat might just be able to catch a dead rat.”

Yu Minmin said, “That’s true. But if you’re going to go outside, remember to disguise yourself.”

Lin Che nodded. “Don’t worry, I will. Then, we’ll split up from here so that we can quickly scour these places completely.”

Yu Minmin also felt that this was a good idea. With her bodyguards with her, she should not encounter any problems.

Lin Che led everyone out. She called for one of the bodyguards whom she knew to be quite strong. She did not bring any more people along to avoid attracting attention and alerting the enemy instead. If the man discovered them first, he might end up hiding in a place that was even more difficult to find.
