Chapter 367: Old Building
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Now that she had Qu Lin, a rich second-generation heir, as long as she could win her over, she would have another person to rely on for the projects.
No matter what Qu Lin thought about this, Yin Xun needed to win Qu Lin over tomorrow.
“By the way, your official seal has been stolen. Aren’t you worried? Are you not going to do anything?” Qu Lin, who had just finished her agreement with Yin Xun, realized that Yin Xun did not seem to be too worried about this problem.
Yin Xun smiled awkwardly and said, “Anyway, the theft of the official seal won’t have much of an impact. We’ll wait for Mary to come back and call the police and hand it over to them to deal with. However, the more important thing now is Modern City. It won’t be good if someone over there is injured.
“Mi Jin, you’ll be in charge when I’m not in the company. Don’t make a fuss about losing the official seal. I’ll deal with this matter after I’m done with the construction site.” Yin Xun turned around and instructed Mi Jin.
Mi Jin was puzzled. “But aren’t we going to call the police now? Also, what happened at the construction site?”
Recently, there had been a lot of ridiculous things happening. It was difficult not to suspect that someone was deliberately distracting Yin Xun.
Yin Xun stood up and pulled Qu Lin out. At the same time, he said to AAi Jin, “A group of hooligans came to the construction site to cause trouble, but nothing much happened. They were all suppressed. I’m going to find the person behind the scenes now. If 1 go back late, it will arouse suspicion. Their goal is to lure me away from the company. In that case, I’ll satisfy them.”
After instructing Mi Jin to keep this matter a secret, Yin Xun and Qu Lin rushed back to the construction site.
Meanwhile, Mary took the official seal to the place she had agreed to meet the person who had threatened her. It was an old and dilapidated building in a remote suburb. No one lived here anymore, and it was as dilapidated as a building in a horror movie.
Before entering, she looked around and realized that the windows upstairs were shattered. Some of the window frames had even fallen off. It was obvious that the place had been abandoned for a long time.
The man had not arrived yet. Carrying the box with the official seal, Mary walked inside on tenterhooks. The man had told her to take the items to the second floor.
Walking up the stairs, Mary did not dare to look to the side. There was not even a handrail on the stairs. She felt that she would fall down if she was not careful.
From the moment she came to this area, she realized that there were no surveillance cameras around. No wonder that person asked her to bring the things to this place.
Other than the occasional chirping of birds, there was no sound at all. It was so quiet that she could almost hear her own heartbeat.
When she reached the second floor, she sat by the glassless window with the box in her arms. The view here was wide and she could observe the situation outside at any time.
There was grass and short trees below. She had thought it through. If the other party came in large numbers and tried to do something to her, she would jump down from here. She would probably be injured, but she could at least escape for her life.
Just as she was waiting anxiously, her phone suddenly rang. It was especially abrupt in this quiet atmosphere, scaring Mary so much that she almost jumped out of the window.
She took out her phone with trembling hands. When she saw that it was her mother, she heaved a sigh of relief and answered the call.
“Mary, have you rescued your brother? Is he hurt? Quick, let him speak to me!” Mary’s mother called out as soon as she answered.
Mary comforted her. “Mom, the person 1 contacted isn’t here yet. I’m waiting for them here. Don’t worry, I’ve already taken out everything they asked for. He won’t do anything to Mark.”
However, her mother was obviously not satisfied with her answer. She snapped, “Obviously you’re not worried because you’re not the one who was kidnapped! The person who was caught is your brother. How can you be so calm? Do you actually wish that something would happen to your brother…”
Mary let out a long sigh. There it was again. She had been getting calls from her mother every day for the past two days. It was as if she’d been the one responsible for Mark’s capture.
“Mom, can we talk about this after we’re done? 1 brought the things to a remote place to make a deal. This place is really scary. Moreover, my boss has always been very good to me, but I stole her official seal. I’m already feeling bad enough. Can you not agitate me?” Mary had not slept much for the past two days. She was already feeling bad enough, but at this moment, she felt a faint headache.
Hearing Mary’s words, her mother became even more agitated and scolded loudly, “What right do you have to feel uncomfortable? Do you know that your brother was kidnapped because of you?! What’s so good about your boss treating you well? Your brother is your family.. The most important thing now is to think about how to save your brother…”
