98: Chapter 098: Xu Ruolan is Captured 98: Chapter 098: Xu Ruolan is Captured Xu Ruolan brought two bodyguards with her on the way to the dinner party.
She was still brooding over Ning Fan’s rejection and, although the dinner originally seemed promising, now she was hardly in the mood to care about it.
Xu Ruolan’s icy facial expression terrified the two bodyguards beside her, who sat up straight in alarm.
Although the two bodyguards were accustomed to Xu Ruolan’s cold demeanor, it was the first time they had seen her this icy.
Just then, a dazzling light suddenly appeared ahead, startling everyone in the car, including Xu Ruolan, who felt her heart lurch.
The car came to an abrupt stop.
Before she could understand what was happening, the two bodyguards beside her were knocked unconscious.
And Xu Ruolan was quickly captured by the black-clothed figures that had blocked the road and was yanked out of the car.
Xu Ruolan was dumbfounded, looking at the group of people in front of her, all dressed in black, tight-fitting clothes.
One of the tall men in black laughed and said, “Miss Xu, please come with us.”
Xu Ruolan’s expression turned fierce as she chastised, “Who exactly are you people?”
The men in black did not answer Xu Ruolan but said with a cold laugh, “You’ll find out once you get there.”
With that, they pushed Xu Ruolan into the car.
Xu Ruolan coldly observed the black-clothed figures in the car, realizing they were from the same organization that had previously attempted to harm her, lurking in the shadows.
Strangely, these people seemed to know her every move, as if someone was tipping them off.
This time, escape was definitely not an option.
Xu Ruolan thought to herself that it was over.
The two bodyguards were incredibly weak, offering no sense of security compared to Ning Fan.
Xu Ruolan cursed Ning Fan countless times in her heart, thinking that if Ning Fan had been with her, they could have at least put up a fight and maybe even escaped.
But this guy Ning Fan had the audacity to turn down her invitation!
“Ning Fan, you bastard!”
…
In an underground room elsewhere, Xu Mingqiu and Second Master Xu had a steely expression as they coldly added several contacts into a message and sent it out.
“Ninth Master, since you want to interfere with the Xu Family’s affairs, then I might as well take you down too.”
Xu Ruolan was kidnapped by his men.
He couldn’t wait any longer.
Today was the day to decide the future of the Xu Family.
“I will take control of the Xu Family’s assets and become the Family Head, and then heh heh…”
He didn’t continue, but as long as he could take over the Xu Family’s assets, the formula for the biochemical agent would naturally fall into his hands.
Once it was developed, the Xu Family could dominate in Zhonghai City and even the world!
So he was in a hurry to secure the position of Family Head as soon as possible!
Now he just needed to wait for the big fish to take the bait.
Second Master Xu gave the Dragon Gate members behind him a glance, issued some orders, and then hurried back to the Xu Family.
…
Ning Fan waited by the river for a while, but seeing no sign of Barefooted Di Sha emerging from the water, he regretfully couldn’t capture him and had no choice but to return to the villa.
Ding ding…
On his way back to the villa, Ning Fan’s phone received a message.
He opened the message from an unknown contact.
“Xu Ruolan is in our hands.
If you want to save her, come to…”
Ning Fan didn’t even finish reading the message before he abruptly stood up, his scalp tingling.
“Xu Ruolan has been kidnapped?!”
Ning Fan rushed back to the villa only to remember that Xu Ruolan had left for a dinner in her car.
If the other party had planned an ambush on the road,
then Xu Ruolan would have had no chance of escaping the killers’ interception, and this message was definitely real.
Immediately afterward, the villa’s main door was violently knocked open, and the Family Head of the Xu Family, Second Master Xu, and others rushed in.
“God Doctor Ning, something terrible has happened—Ruolan has been kidnapped!”
The Family Head of the Xu Family stormed in, holding his phone and said.
“I already know, don’t worry.”
Ning Fan nodded, indicating he was aware.
It turned out that these people had received the same message as Ning Fan.
Xu Ruolan had been kidnapped, and the entire Xu Family was in a state of chaos, all gathering in the villa.
“Lan’er, at a time like this, you’re still in the mood to attend some banquet…” The Family Head of the Xu Family said with a pained expression, at a loss for what to do.
The other people also wore worried expressions, unsure whether to go to the address suggested by the message.
Uncle Xu had also arrived at the villa; a hint of undetectable glee, the glee of successful scheming, shimmered in his eyes.
Naturally, it was Uncle Xu who had kidnapped Xu Ruolan.
Uncle Xu felt he didn’t have much time left to entangle with Xu Ruolan and Ning Fan.
Unable to wait any longer for other options, he simply decided to quickly deal with both Xu Ruolan and Ning Fan, and to take control of the Xu Family as soon as possible.
So, he first captured Xu Ruolan, then baited Ning Fan with the intent to dispose of them together!
The Family Head looked at everyone’s anxious and panicked expressions and felt uneasy.
“Lan’er, how could you be so careless?”
He turned to Ning Fan, who was frowning, and said,
“Mr.
Ning, could you possibly lend us a hand?
Lan’er’s situation is definitely more perilous than fortuitous right now.
If you could help, we will fully cooperate and rescue Lan’er together.”
Uncle Xu also pretended to be anxious and said, “I hope these thugs won’t do anything to our Ruolan.
If that were to happen, our Xu Family would, would…”
As he spoke, his eyes reddened and he almost burst into tears.
Crocodile tears, Ning Fan watched Uncle Xu with interest and thought to himself how abundant the tears of this weasel were.
Ning Fan was clear about one thing: since the other party had sent a message, it meant Xu Ruolan was still alive, and thus, they wanted something.
After glancing over everyone, Ning Fan reassured them, “Everyone, don’t panic.
With me here, Ruolan will be fine.”
“But…” Xu Rongfei started to say something and then stopped.
All she could do was stand there, sighing deeply.
“Sister, nothing will happen to you.
Ning Fan will surely save you,”
Xu Xiaoqing said with red-rimmed eyes, pacing back and forth in the living room.
At this moment, everyone was distraught.
Xu Ruolan could be said to be the lifeline of the entire Xu Family; if something were to happen to her, the Xu Family would be ruined.
Of course, Ning Fan would save Xu Ruolan.
It was no joke; how could he not save his future wife?
Besides, since the opposition was targeting him, not going would simply be a disappointment, wouldn’t it?
Ning Fan glanced at Uncle Xu, then nodded earnestly to the Xu family members, “Everyone, don’t worry.
I’ll go rescue Miss Ruolan right away.”
As he spoke, he looked once again at the address on the message and then left the villa.
Xu Rongfei was startled, “He’s just going like that?
Can Mr.
Ning handle it alone?”
On hearing Ning Fan’s words, the Family Head immediately perked up.
If Ning Fan said he would rescue Lan’er, then there naturally wouldn’t be any problem.
He had great confidence in Ning Fan, “As long as God Doctor Ning takes action, we won’t have to worry.”
Xu Rongfei, anxious, with beads of sweat on her pale forehead, said worriedly, “But what if the other side has set an ambush there?
Can Mr.
Ning handle it?”
Xu Xiaoqing was also worried that Ning Fan was heading into danger, but her sister couldn’t be left unsaved.
She suddenly burst into tears, clueless of what to do.
The Family Head patted Xu Xiaoqing’s head soothingly, “God Doctor Ning won’t have any problems, and neither will Lan’er.”
However, at this moment, Uncle Xu was hiding to the side.
He watched the Family Head with a cold and mocking look, utterly disdainful and scoffing at the inexplicable confidence of the Family Head.
He silently thought,
“Big brother, you trust Ninth Master so much?
Aren’t you a bit too reassured?”
“Ninth Master, huh?
I want you to go there and never come back!”
