Keeping the promise

Chapter 291 Hanging in the Air

Zheng Wancheng did not return home until midnight. Zheng Chenglin paced back and forth in the living room, and the floor under his feet seemed to be dented by him.

His eyes were bloodshot, and his worries grew stronger. The clock on the wall had already passed twelve o'clock, and the ticking sound was particularly clear in the silent night, and every tick seemed to hit his heart. But there was still no news from his daughter.

"Where did Wancheng go? Why hasn't he come back so late?" Zheng Chenglin muttered to himself, beads of sweat on his forehead sliding down his wrinkles.

He kept rubbing his hands, his heart felt like a tangled mess that he couldn't sort out.

Zheng Chenglin finally couldn't help but pick up the phone. His fingers were shaking with nervousness and he almost dialed the wrong number. The moment the call was connected, his heart was in his throat.

The assistant's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Director Zheng left work a long time ago." Zheng Chenglin frowned even more, and an ominous premonition came to his mind. He was afraid that Zheng Wancheng would encounter another accident, and he put down the phone with trembling hands.

"No, I can't just wait like this." Zheng Chenglin said to himself. He walked back and forth in the living room, thinking about various possibilities rapidly in his mind.

After thinking it over, Zheng Chenglin quickly sent a message to Li Yunxuan: "Yunxuan, your mother hasn't returned home yet. The company said she left a long time ago. I'm worried that something happened to her." After sending the message, he held the phone tightly, not daring to take his eyes off the screen for a moment, waiting for Li Yunxuan's reply.

The moment Li Yunxuan received the news, his heart suddenly tightened, as if it was being grabbed hard by an invisible big hand.

"Why is Mom missing?" He knew his mother's character very well. If there was no special situation, she would never stay out so late.

"Grandpa, don't worry, I will find a way right away." While replying to Zheng Chenglin, Li Yunxuan immediately mobilized his own forces and mobilized all available resources to find the whereabouts of Zheng Wancheng.

At the same time, Li Yunxuan also contacted his father Li Yunting: "Dad, Mom is missing. I'm already looking for her. You should think of a solution too." His voice was anxious and nervous.

When Li Yunting heard the news, he was shocked and dropped the documents in his hand to the ground. "How could this happen?" He immediately put down his work and began to plan the operation to find Zheng Wancheng.

"Notify everyone to do their best to find the whereabouts of the lady. Make sure to find her!"

Zheng Zihui came home from school and felt something was wrong as soon as he entered the house. The air seemed to become heavy, and he felt a little breathless.

"Grandpa, what happened?" Zheng Zihui asked.

After learning the news that his mother had disappeared, he contacted Xiao Yuzhou and the "Mamba" organization without any hesitation.

"Brother Xiao Yu, my mother is missing. Please use the power of the organization to help find her." Zheng Zihui's voice was full of anxiety. His hand was tightly holding the phone, and his knuckles turned white from the force.

Xiao Yuzhou agreed without hesitation: "Don't worry, Zihui, we will do our best to find Sister Zheng."

All of a sudden, all forces took action, and the whole city seemed to be covered by an invisible net. People asked around and checked for clues, just to find Zheng Wancheng's trace.

Zheng Wancheng tried to wake up from her coma, but she felt dizzy and heavy in her head, as if she had been hit hard by a heavy hammer. She found that everything in front of her was dark, her eyes were covered, and the darkness wrapped her tightly like a heavy curtain.

Her body seemed to be suspended in the air, dangling, and the feeling of being suspended in the air made her stomach churn. But she did not panic, but quickly calmed down, took a deep breath, and forced herself to calm down.

She sniffed lightly, and a strong smell of rust entered her nose. The smell was pungent and old, as if it carried the decay of time.

Based on her experience, she thought it must be the abandoned factory. She had heard of this place before, and it was a hiding place often chosen by some criminals.

"How did I get brought here? I have to find a way out." Her brain was working rapidly.

Just as she was still thinking about how to deal with the situation in her mind, she suddenly heard the sound of machinery running. The sound was noisy and dull, echoing in the empty space.

Then her body began to slowly descend. Her heartbeat accelerated as her body descended, and every second was filled with uncertainty and tension.

After a while, she felt her feet touch the ground. The moment she stepped on solid ground, she breathed a sigh of relief, but her nerves were still tense.

Before she could react, the blindfold was roughly removed. The strong light instantly stung her eyes. She squinted her eyes subconsciously, and tears flowed out uncontrollably. She tried hard to adapt to the sudden brightness.

After a long while, she was finally able to see the scene clearly. Standing in front of her was Kou Zhuangming, who had a sinister look on his face. His eyes were full of hatred and pride, like a wolf that had finally caught its prey.
