Chapter 333: Yinyin Goes Missing

~7 min read 1,332 words

As she crawled forward with difficulty, she said in a cold voice, "I was born into a wealthy family; once, I was also a carefree little girl without a scheming mind."

"But the relatives around me viewed me as a thorn in their side. When I was sixteen, my uncle even drugged me, nearly causing me to be humiliated by social thugs..."

"Why did he treat you like that?" Chen Yu asked, puzzled.

"Heh, because I am a member of the Deng Family. My existence would take a share of the spoils from the Deng Family. Even if my threat to them was negligible, they still viewed me as a thorn in their side."

"From that moment on, I realized that if I was born into a wealthy family, I had to endure everything within a wealthy family. If you don't want to be swallowed up, you can only stand up and fight them. That is why you don't understand why I had to climb up so desperately, why I would stop at nothing to obtain the Deng Family."

"Fine, you have your grievances, but your methods were truly too extreme. Wang Yuan was used by you, wasn't he?" Chen Yu said.

"Heh, he isn't a good person either. Knowing I had requests of him, he made things difficult for me in every way. How many times did I sleep with him? He is a pervert. It is his own fault that he suffered a backlash after the Ghost went out of control."

Deng Yuan collapsed to the ground with a thud. She gasped violently; she had exhausted all her strength.

"I sympathize with you, but you truly cannot leave today," Chen Yu sighed and said. "What is destined to be yours will come in time; do not force what is not destined. Accept your fate."

"It's all you. You ruined everything I had. Chen Yu, remember this: even if I die, I will become a Ghost and ensure you never have peace for all eternity."

Deng Yuan suddenly used her one uninjured hand to grab a Dagger and pierced her own throat without hesitation.

"You..." Chen Yu was startled and hurriedly stepped forward, but it was already too late.

Deng Yuan clutched her neck, and a large amount of fresh blood gushed out from it. She stared fixedly at Chen Yu, a trace of intense hatred appearing in her eyes: "Chen Yu... you are also a pathetic wretch, both in your past life and this one."

"What did you say? Speak clearly." Chen Yu's expression changed drastically. Deng Yuan knew his secret, so it was highly likely she belonged to that mysterious force.

He pointed with his right hand, attempting to stop the bleeding and save her, but it was ultimately too late. Deng Yuan was dead; she lay on the ground with her eyes wide open, blood still gushing from her neck.

Chen Yu watched her from the side, saying nothing.

The impact of her final words was too great for Chen Yu. An invisible force had been manipulating his fate across his past and present lives; even now, Chen Yu could not escape that nightmare.

"What happened to her?" Ren Zhenghao, who had arrived with his men, was startled. Looking at Deng Yuan, who no longer had any breath, he shouted: "Quick, call an ambulance, hurry!"

"It's useless, she can't be saved." Chen Yu shook his head. This woman's plan had failed, and she was determined to die.

"Why did she commit suicide? Why didn't you stop her?" Ren Zhenghao asked angrily.

"Then why did you only arrive now? If you had come earlier, wouldn't you have stopped her?" Chen Yu glanced at Ren Zhenghao, a single sentence leaving him speechless.

"What about the Ghost?" Ren Zhenghao asked.

"Reduced to ashes, so the people of the Deng Family can rest easy," Chen Yu said indifferently.

"That's good. The people of the Deng Family want to see you."

"No," Chen Yu spat out the two words.

The words Deng Yuan spoke before she died left Chen Yu with no good feelings toward this wealthy family. He did not want to have any dealings with the Deng Family now.

"Chen Yu, you are being a bit excessive," Ren Zhenghao frowned. "In any case, their Deng Family came from Hong Kong Island; it wouldn't hurt to meet them."

"Ren Zhenghao, I actually had a good impression of you, but you must not make me look down on you," Chen Yu said coldly, then turned and left the place.

"What do you mean?" Ren Zhenghao was furious. What did Chen Yu's words mean?

Chen Yu said nothing and left the place directly. The subsequent cleanup was no longer his business.

The matter of the Deng Family was considered handled, but Chen Yu no longer wanted to concern himself with the outcome.

One day, while seeing patients at Xinglinju, Zhao Anran went to pick up Yinyin when school let out.

But not long after she left, she called in a panic: "Chen Yu, it's bad. Yinyin is gone."

"What happened?" Chen Yu was startled and stood up abruptly.

"Just now when school let out, Yinyin's teacher wasn't paying attention, and she disappeared. I was stuck in traffic and arrived a few minutes late. What should I do now?" Zhao Anran was already sobbing.

She now viewed Yinyin as her own daughter, and the two of them had been getting along very well. Yinyin's sudden disappearance caused Zhao Anran to fall into an instant panic.

"Don't panic, I'll be there right away." Chen Yu hurriedly got up and rushed toward the kindergarten.

The kindergarten was now Chen Yu's property. The young woman who had just graduated from the teachers' college heard that this was the daughter of the Chaoxing Group's boss, and she was already crying in terror.

"I'm sorry, President Chen, it was my negligence. I looked away for just one second and Yinyin was gone." The preschool teacher was crying uncontrollably.

"Don't panic, they've already gone to check the surveillance. In the future, the school will strengthen management in this area," Chen Yu turned his head and said. "Anran, don't panic either, it will be fine."

A moment later, the surveillance footage was retrieved. It was a middle-aged woman who had used a parent's pickup card to sneak into the kindergarten.

Looking at the surveillance inside the classroom, several of the school's caregivers were reporting the situation to parents. The middle-aged woman had snuck in, covered Yinyin's mouth with a handkerchief, and carried her straight out.

"Chen Yu, what do I do? She's a human trafficker." Zhao Anran's vision blurred, and her body swayed, nearly collapsing to the ground.

"It's okay, Anran, I'm going to handle this matter right now." Chen Yu's expression was somber. He helped Zhao Anran sit down, then turned and walked out, immediately making several phone calls.

Chen Yu was also furious. He didn't know if this person was specifically targeting him or had other motives, but in any case, this matter had angered Chen Yu.

Half an hour later, Datian called: "Boss, we've found her. Yinyin is currently in a private hospital in the west, and I've already taken men to rush over there."

"Understood, I'm heading over now." Chen Yu's expression darkened. He hung up the phone and said: "Anran, you don't need to worry. We have news of Yinyin now. I'm going over immediately."

"I'm going with you." Zhao Anran stood up abruptly.

"You shouldn't go. It's unclear what the other party's goal is, and they might resort to violence. It wouldn't be convenient if you go. Rest assured, I will definitely bring Yinyin back to you safely," Chen Yu comforted her.

In the west of the city, in a private hospital of modest size.

This was a hospital belonging to the Putian System, which usually operated under false pretenses, charging high consultation fees and high medicine costs, and most of the Yisheng were only half-competent.
