Chapter 24: Suddenly Injected with a Death-Inducing Drug
Translator: Tuiwen Editor: Tuiwen
She had only been driving for a while when she suddenly noticed a familiar figure from the corner of her eye. Feeling uneasy, Fu Qing slowed the car down to get a better look.
‘Wait, isn’t that Zhan Qi’s car?’
She could only stare at the car that was parked on the side of the road, as if Zhan Qi was waiting for someone.
Curious, Fu Qing also stopped the car. She rolled down the window to get a closer look, and observed them from a distance.
Not long after, two people walked out of a residential area and walked straight towards Zhan Qi’s car.
They were so far away that Fu Qing couldn’t see what they looked like. However, she noticed that they were both tall and donned sunglasses. The way they dressed made it look like they were trying to conceal their identity. After staring at them, Fu Qing realized that they looked like the people at the scene when Zhan Qi saved her!
The two got into Zhan Qi’s car. Moments later, the car’s engine ignited and the car started to head towards the east of the city.
This was getting even more strange. What business would Zhan Qi have in the east?
Was he trying to hunt down Jin Hu’s men?
Given Zhan Qi’s temper, Fu Qing was afraid that he would end up killing them impulsively if they were really Jin Hu’s men.
Troubled by this, Fu Qing quickly started the car and started to tail behind Zhan Qi’s car.
Fortunately for her, it was the peak hour. There were so many people and cars on the road that he didn’t notice her following him.
Zhan Qi drove the car to the village where she had been kidnapped. As they started to enter the rural area, the road slowly became narrower and narrower. She knew she would get caught if she continued to follow him by car, so she quickly parked her car in a corner. Then, she alighted and entered the village on foot.
Just then, she suddenly remembered Master Franz who had sent her a meal. She wondered if he still residing in the village.
She decided to visit his noodle shop and try to get some clues.
However, as soon as she arrived, she noticed that the doors and windows of the shop were closed. It seems that Mr. Franz was not around.
Fu Qing heaved a sigh of relief at the sight. Since he was not around, those hooligans would not be able to cause trouble for him.
“Are you sure that someone injected him with a death-inducing drug?”
Just as she was about to leave, Fu Qing suddenly heard a familiar voice.
Hearing this, she quickly peeked from behind the wall to see who it was. She caught a glimpse of Zhan Qi and his two subordinates behind a tree. It seemed that Zhan Qi had asked them that.
“I’m certain of it. My brother knows the medical examiner, who said that Jin Hu had been injected with a death-inducing drug beforehand.”
“I see,” Zhan Qi said, and he was silent. A moment later, he said, “I had to give a statement this morning, but I think that the two policemen in the East City Police Station look familiar. You two should investigate them.”
Then, he whipped out his phone to show a picture to his two subordinates.
One of them cried out in surprise almost immediately, “Eh?! This policeman… I’ve seen him around with the eldest Young Master before!”
Zhan Qi lowered his voice and insisted sternly, “Are you sure?”
The subordinate replied with an “Hmm, I’m sure of it. I still remember how he looked like.”
“Alright, continue investigating. Please try to find out their names and police numbers. One last thing. Remember, make sure Zhan Leng and Zhan Cheng find out about this.”
“Yes.” The two replied simply.
“Let’s go to the hut where Ah Qing was held. Hopefully, we’ll be able to find some clues there.”
“Yes, Young Master.”
Fu Qing’s eyes widened in shock once she heard this. Was Zhan Leng the mastermind behind her kidnapping?
The trio started to walk towards her direction. Panicking, Fu Qing quickly ducked down and hid herself.
After Zhan Qi and his two subordinates had walked past, Fu Qing contemplated for a moment before eventually deciding to return back. There was nothing else she could do.
After all, hardly any outsiders visited this village. If she were to continue snooping around, Zhan Qi would surely find her.
Fu Qing returned to her parking spot and went to Master Yun Jin’s house. There, she learned advanced embroidery techniques, before she eventually decided to return to the villa after the sunset.
However, Zhan Qi was not back yet.
Fu Qing had been expecting her husband to greet her with a smile. However, she was greeted with the cold silence of the house. Momentarily stunned, she could only stand there in a daze and wondered what could have happened to him.
Could he have been discovered by the Zhan family? Was he indanger?
She became increasingly worried as she started to overthink. Suddenly, her cell phone rang. She quickly grasped it and saw Zhan Qi’s name flashing on the display screen. She heaved a sigh of relief.
She quickly answered the call, and pressed the phone close to her ear. Zhan Qi’s comforting, yet faint voice came from the other end.
“I’m busy outside, so I won’t be going back tonight. Go to sleep first, okay?”
He sounded extremely apologetic, but that was the least of Fu Qing’s concerns.
All that mattered was that he was fine!
