Chapter 21: 221. A Turning Point

Li Zheyu was on Weibo with excitement on his face.

He almost couldn’t control his trembling hand and hit the “Like” button of the Weibo posts.

Qi Le’an was taken away by the police! He was taken away!

Since the evidence was irrefutable, he would definitely come to a bad end!

As he thought about it, Li Zheyu’s phone rang. He shook his hands and picked up the call.

“Qi Le’an has already been taken away by the police. The balance has been paid, right?” The voice at the other end of the line was hoarse and one could tell that he was definitely not a good person as he or she heard it.

Li Zheyu smiled, “No problem… But can you make sure he will be jailed?”

The other side snorted, “Since he dares to prevent us from making money, we must teach him a lesson!”

Li Zheyu was happy immediately and his eyes were full of excitement. He said, “Get the job done well! There would be enough benefit to you!”

‘Qi Le’an, Qi Le’an, I’d like to see if you can still get out of it!’

Li Zheyu’s eyes were crazy. If someone saw him now, he or she would definitely be shocked.

As a star, how come he was looking pale and thin like this?

In the police station.

“That’s the situation,” Qi Le’an said, “You can contact the police in Guangzhou to verify the story. The surname of the officer at that time was…”

“Fang,” Wei Changfeng added.

The policewoman and the middle-aged officer glanced at each other, then she nodded and smiled, “Thank you very much for your help. We will definitely verify the true situation. To tell you the truth, we police have been stepping up efforts to combat abduction lately. This time, we call you here to have a multifaceted understanding of it.”

Qi Le’an smiled and said, “As citizens, we’re supposed to help the police. But I have a small request, I don’t know if you can agree to it.”

The policewoman said with a smile, “If you have anything, please say it, Mr. Qi.”

Qi Le’an said with a slight sense of grievance, “Since I have gone to the police station this time, I’m sure the outside is agog with rumors. Maybe they have already regarded me as a bad person! Miss, can you ask your official account on Weibo to announce that I’m only assisting an investigation?”

The policewoman did not expect this to be the case. Before she could open her mouth, the middle-aged police officer said, “No promblem… we’ll handle it.”

Qi Le’an hurriedly thanked him.

He found that although the middle-aged police officer was wordless, he seemed to have a high position.

The police officer who made the recording put away his computer and the policewoman was ready to leave. The middle-aged police officer stood up and smiled at Wei Changfeng, “Changfeng, I heard your sister gave birth to a child, right?”

Qi Le’an was shocked when he said this. Wei Changfeng smiled and said, “She gave birth to a chubby son. My dad even chattered about studying kung fu from you, Uncle Deng.”

The middle-aged police officer chuckled and said, “Please tell her that she must go to see me after returning home!”

Wei Changfeng replied, “Of course!”

The two of them exchanged banalities for a couple of minutes before the middle-aged police officer left.

The media were outside, so Qi Le’an and Wei Changfeng were waiting for Chen Shan and the others to pick them up in the police station and were not in a hurry to leave. Qi Le’an whispered, “Wei Sama, you actually have contacts in the police station!”

Wei Changfeng pulled a wry face, “What do you mean I have contacts in the police… he just came to see what the case was going on. Uncle Deng and my dad are friends.”

Qi Le’an just nodded with a knowing smile.

With Uncle Deng’s help, the official account of the police of Taiyang District had posted a clarification on the Internet before they went out of the police station, saying that the police had invited Mr.Qi to assist the investigation and they were very grateful for Mr. Qi’s effective information.

When the fans saw it, they all breathed a sigh of relief. It showed that Qi Le’an had nothing to do with the abduction!

Everyone started to hoot again. And the clarification left the rumormongers just now with egg on their faces.

But then, the Weibo account called “Give Back My Child” posted another tweet, accusing the police of covering for criminals because of the star identity of a Qi Le’an. It said that the police colluded with Qi Le’an and denounced them in a miserable tone.

Qi Le’an was on Weibo and shouted angrily, “Who the hell is it?”

Wei Changfeng received the message and stood up. “Gary is here. Let’s go first.”

Qi Le’an took a deep breath and stood up with Wei Changfeng.

There was certainly not only a front door in the police station and the two of them walked through the back door. Not only was Gary in his car, Chen Shan was also there.

“They didn’t bully you, did they?” Chen Shan asked as soon as he saw Qi Le’an.

Qi Le’an shook his head and said, “They just asked about the case.”

Gary told the two of them about the current situation, and by the way, he said, “Mr. Sheng said that Wei Sama’s place is not safe, so he asked you to move back to the house of Sheng An Land Holdings.”

Sheng An Land Holdings was the Sheng Family’s own business, so people there would protect Wei Changfeng no matter what happened.

Wei Changfeng said, “It’s not a big deal. Let’s go home first.”

Gary stopped persuading them and drove the two back home.

It was already evening when they arrived home. Seeing that everyone was tired, Chen Shan ordered a carry-out and asked the security guard to deliver it here. Qi Le’an was worried about He Guang and asked, “How’s He Guang now?”

“The witness at the scene said that he probably had been kidnapped three or four days ago. He Guang wriggled free but fell into the ditch again,” Gary said with an impassive countenance, “He’s out throughout the year, and people often couldn’t get through to his number, so no one has noticed he’s missing.”

Qi Le’an suddenly asked, “Is this revenge?”

It was not just a matter of blackening Qi Le’an to kidnap He Guang. He Guang was fighting against abduction, so he didn’t know how many people he had offended.

Wei Changfeng was also alert for a moment and asked, “There are no work arrangements for the next few days, right? Don’t go out. No… Pack up and we’ll stay with Brother Sheng tomorrow.”

Seeing that both of them were so nervous, Chen Shan became nervous too and said, “We shouldn’t be in trouble in broad daylight, right?”

Wei Changfeng insisted, “We’d better nip it in the bud.”

Qi Le’an and Wei Changfeng stared at each other and saw the worry in each other’s eyes.

That night, the two of them packed their luggage. Then they were taken to Sheng Chang’an’s house by Gary before dawn. At the same time, Gary also brought the latest news.

“He Guang has woken up. He’s not very spirited. After hearing about this, he insisted on coming to Beijing.”

At this time, Qi Le’an already felt that He Guang was not important, but he was worried about something else.

“Did Uncle Zhu’s family leave by themselves? Could… something have happen to them too?”

After all. it was him who saved their child. Even if the family was unwilling to speak out in his defense, Qi Le’an did not want anything to happen to them.

Everyone hadn’t slept well last night, and there were dark circles around Qi Le’an’s eyes. It made Wei Changfeng’s heart ache and he said, “Don’t think so much. It’ll definitely be fine.”

Chen Shan, who had been in Wei Family for the whole night, also said, “Don’t worry. They are a big family and they will definitely not be kidnapped.”

The four of Uncle Zhu’s family were missing together. Someone asked villagers but they just said that they did not know it. Since the villagers did not seem to be anxious, Uncle Zhu and his family should have left themselves.

Qi Le’an felt a little relieved but also sad.

After arriving at the Sheng Family, Wei Changfeng coaxed Qi Le’an to sleep. Qi Le’an lay awake all night yesterday and was groggy, so he listened to Wei Changfeng’s advice. Once he fell asleep, he didn’t wake up until next noon again.

He Guang arrived at the Sheng Family.

When He Guang fell from the hill to the ditch, he had cut his head. There was a huge wound on his head and he had more than ten stitches in it. His arm was also injured and in a cast with the bandage draped around his neck, which was so miserable.

Qi Le’an was stunned when he saw He Guang and asked, “Why is it so serious? Why are you coming when you are in such a bad situation?!”

He Guang gave a wry smile and said, “It can be considered a trouble that I caused. I won’t rest assured if I don’t come to see you guys.”

Qi Le’an couldn’t say anything this time. He sighed and poured He Guang a glass of water.

Wei Changfeng asked, “Do you know what was going on?”

He Guang nodded with a hint of depression flashed across his eyes.

“He was masked when he tied me up. When I fled, I saw his face,” He Guang said, “I had been thinking about it on the plane all morning. I felt he was a hardened criminal according to his shape and face.”

He Guang would remember what the children looked like when he looked for them. When some children were taken away, there would be some videos about the kidnappers and He Guang would also try to remember these faces.

He had thought about it all morning and felt that he couldn’t be wrong.

“Now that the information of citizens is wired in the whole country, I’ll go to the police station in the afternoon to confirm it,” He Guang added, “Don’t worry, the matter must be resolved successfully.”

Seeing that He Guang was about to go out like this, Qi Le’an said in a hurry, “What can they do to us? Don’t make any more trouble for yourself!”

He Guang sighed, his eyes full of guilt, and he said, “Tingting had called me to tell me what had happened… I know it has a big impact on you.”

Qi Le’an couldn’t help but think about how serious the arguments among the netizens could be.

“I’ll go with you,” Chen Shan, who hadn’t said anything and was twiddling his fingers, said, “This is Beijing! I don’t believe that someone can kidnap people here!”

His words were very fierce, as if he would take revenge on anyone who wanted to kidnap him.

“There are already volunteers to look for Uncle Zhu and his family, which belong to the families we are more familiar with, so they will definitely find them, don’t worry,” He Guang said to Qi Le’an.

Qi Le’an sighed and said, “It’s not a big deal if they can’t find them. It will be okay as long as Uncle Zhu and his family are fine.”

If those people wanted to quarrel online, then he would just let them go.

Although He Guang was injured, he didn’t stop for a moment. After half an hour of rest, he had some food and then went to the police station with Chen Shan. Wei Changfeng originally had an appointment with Brother Zhi today, but since such a matter had happened, he couldn’t leave anymore. Although he was not mentioned in the news reports, he still decided to stay with Qi Le’an at home.

As soon as Brother Zhi heard about such a big matter, involving attacking and retaliating of criminals, he was shocked. He ordered Wei Changfeng to leave everything of “Abduction of Children” to him and told him to take care of his safety.

Qi Le’an couldn’t even be bothered checking Weibo, but he was annoyed that he didn’t check it, and he was even more annoyed when he looked at the quarrels on the Internet.

Quite a number of people had called him, and Hu Bin even asked him to go out for a drink. But Qi Le’an didn’t want to do anything. If he could, he would like to go to the police station to watch the police officers’ detection.

When Wei Changfeng saw him being like this, he suggested, “Come to make snacks with me. Didn’t you say that you wanted to eat the yolk pastry two days ago?”

When He Guang came over, he even brought them a few salted duck eggs, which could be just used to make yolk pastry.

Qi Le’an knew that Wei Changfeng didn’t want to make himself anxious. He sighed and washed his hands, preparing to bake it with his lover.

It was really useful to kill time by cooking. After the yolk pastry was baked, an afternoon had passed. He Guang and Chen Shan were not back yet and he didn’t know what Gary was doing. Then something happened again on Weibo.

A highly respected old man, Elder Ge spoke out in his defense and forwarded Qi Le’an’s tweet, saying, “There are too many obstacles in the show business world. Young people must march forward courageously without fear.”
