Chapter 735
“What do you mean?”
“I smell a strong scent of ether. I’ve smelled this before.”
The last time Xia Wealth’s hired goons had kidnapped her, she’d smelled ether. Her sense of smell was acute, and one whiff was enough for her to remember it. As soon as she’d opened the car door, she noticed the identical smell, and traces of it still linger inside the car, though thankfully not too strong.
The driver in the front seat also felt something was wrong, but his worry was about the car itself. Their car seemed to be suspended, hooked to something. The driver, as if facing a formidable enemy, did not forget to comfort his two distinguished passengers, “Miss Ye, don’t worry.”
Tang Zhou pulled out his phone to make a call. Before it even connected, he cursed, “Why wouldn’t I worry! Damn it, why is our car shaking? What the hell is going on?”
Ye Xingguang: “Our car is being lifted!!”
“Why is no one answering the phone? Damn! Why can’t I make a call? No signal. Bloody hell, is it because we’re in a tunnel? Xingguang, quickly call Shen Mo for me. We must have been targeted for an assassination. We’re in danger!”
Ye Xingguang checked her own phone: “I don’t have a signal, either.”
Outside, the sound of gunfire was unbroken. There were seven cars in their party; besides theirs, there were six more cars protecting them. However, as soon as the bodyguards got out of their vehicles, they smelled ether, and the smoke grenades were obstructing their vision…
Damn it!
Why does trouble always strike in a tunnel?
Who is trying to harm her?
Ye Xingguang was seething with anger.
Suddenly, their suspended car thudded down onto solid ground.
Before Ye Xingguang could even register where they were, everything had fallen into darkness.
“Turn on the headlights!” Ye Xingguang yelled.
The driver turned on the lights, but all he could see were the walls outside the window.
Tang Zhou was quick to react. “We’re in a container! No, our car is in a container! Fuck! Is someone trying to hijack us? Xingguang, are they after me or you?”
“I don’t know.” Ye Xingguang pushed the car door open again, but less than a second later, she slammed it shut again, cursing, “Perverts! There’s ether in the container, too!”
Tang Zhou continued to stare at his phone, still seeing no signal. It appeared there was a signal disrupter in the container!
“Xingguang, don’t be scared. I’m here!” After spending 20 years as a tomboy, she had to step up and act like a man, to protect Ye Xingguang. Tang Zhou had no intention of shirking this duty!
“I’m not scared. Whoever dares mess with me will end up being the scared one!” Ye Xingguang gritted her teeth.noveldrama
“Exactly! Whoever dares to mess with us, Shen Mo will make sure they pay!” Tang Zhou encouraged herself.
At this moment, Shen Mo and Leng Chenmo were still standing at the hotel entrance. They were greeting guests attending the banquet while looking in the direction of the hotel exit. They checked the time again; those two were taking forever to get ready. When were they going to arrive?
Just as he was thinking this, Xiao Yun suddenly strode out of the hotel, his face clouded with worry, “Mister Shen, something has gone wrong.”
Shen Mo glanced at Xiao Yun, then heard him continue to report, “Miss Ye and Tang Zhou have been kidnapped. Their whereabouts are currently unknown.”
