Chapter 566: Chapter 566: Making Two Preparations
When Tie Dan heard the hacker’s words, his face briefly showed displeasure: "How was I supposed to know that making money meant helping people kidnap someone? This is a city intellectual, and I’ve heard that Tao Zhiyuan’s family is quite well-off. If something really happens to her, and her family pursues the matter, what are we going to do?"
The hacker was genuinely angry now: "Fine, then make up your mind. We’ve already brought her out. If you don’t want the money, then take her back."
Upon hearing their conversation, Yunyi understood Zhong Liyuan’s intentions; he must have planned for both outcomes.
If the plan to frame Lun Huaijing worked, then Tao Yuran would likely face a bad fate; if things didn’t go smoothly on Lun Huaijing’s side, Tao Yuran would become a pawn to threaten Lun Huaijing—such a cunning move.
And these two would eventually become scapegoats.
Seeing that they had no intention of moving forward, Yunyi directly climbed up a tree, curious about what their final decision would be.
Just as she was getting on the tree, she heard someone approaching from behind. She released her spiritual power in the direction of the sound and discovered that the group chasing her was likely the sparrows orchestrated by Zhong Liyuan.
Not wanting to expose herself or let anything happen to Tao Yuran, she quickly climbed down the tree, picked up two small stones from the ground, and swiftly flung them out, hitting the hacker and Tie Dan’s men, who lost consciousness without realizing what happened.
Seeing them collapse, she didn’t waste any time and quickly moved forward, took the unconscious Tao Yuran away.
Shortly after she left, Zhong Liyuan’s people arrived, and after seeing the two collapsed on the ground, they searched everywhere but found nothing, leading to curses in frustration.
To investigate Tao Yuran’s whereabouts from the two on the ground, they had no choice but to bring them down from the mountain. It wasn’t out of kindness; they feared their disappearance would cause a major stir, which would be disadvantageous for them.
After observing those people leave, Yunyi took out a homemade medicinal pill and fed it to Tao Yuran. It wasn’t long before she gently woke up.
When she saw Yunyi, she instinctively wanted to back away: "Who are you?"
Yunyi looked down at the person who had just woken up: "Don’t be afraid; I’m not a bad person. You’re safe now."
Once Tao Yuran had a clear view of her: "Are you Chu Zhiqing?"
Yunyi squatted down: "Yes, it’s me."
Tao Yuran glanced around: "Where am I now?"
Yunyi heard the tremor in her voice: "Do you remember what happened?"
Upon hearing Yunyi’s question, Tao Yuran urgently replied: "Oh no, why am I here?"
Of course, Yunyi couldn’t reveal her real situation to Tao Yuran, so she made up an excuse: "I was going to town for business today and was returning late. I intended to take a shortcut through the back mountain to get back to the Agricultural Reclamation Group, but unexpectedly ran into some commotion. There were people everywhere outside Lun Zhiyuan’s yard.
I planned to get closer to see what happened when I saw someone taking you up the mountain. Curiously, I followed them and overheard the two’s conversation; someone paid them to kidnap you.
Later, I saw more people coming from behind, likely targeting you as well, so I knocked those two unconscious and took you away to hide here first."
Tao Yuran understood. Someone was likely coming for her and Lun Huaijing. Having grown up in a high-status family, none is simple, and she quickly figured out the reason behind it.
She looked around, eyes filled with confusion: "Chu Zhiqing, thank you very much for today’s help. Could I trouble you to help me down the mountain? I’m really unable to distinguish directions right now."
