Liang Yu looked at Fang Ze in disbelief, so surprised that he even stopped struggling.

She had no idea that Fang Ze would say such a thing.

For no reason at all, Fang Ze dragged Yan Qi into this.

When did Fang Ze become so suspicious?

Liang Yu took a deep breath, enduring the pain in his wrist, and looked at Fang Ze, trying to keep his tone calm:

"Fang Ze, my wrist is injured and it's bandaged. Can't you see it? Can't you feel it?"

Fang Ze then shifted his gaze to Liang Yu's wrist.

Liang Yu's wrists were very slender, and Fang Ze's large, long hands could completely envelop them.

But in areas not covered by Fang Ze's palm, bandages tightly bound to his wrists were indeed visible.

Fang Ze suddenly loosened his grip and repeatedly apologized to Liang Yu:

"Xiao Yu, I'm sorry, I didn't realize your wrist was injured. Did I hurt you? I'll take you to the hospital right now..."

Before Fang Ze could finish speaking, Liang Yu turned and walked indifferently into the courtyard, leaving behind only a cold remark:

"No."

Fang Ze's remaining words were instantly choked up, leaving him breathless.

His breath hitched, and a strong sense of panic and unease instantly enveloped him.

Fang Ze then followed Liang Yu into the courtyard.

Liang Yu walked to the rattan chair next to the flower stand in the yard and sat down.

Sunlight shone from behind her, casting a soft halo around her, making even her loose hair seem as if it were coated with a layer of transparent beeswax.

Liang Yu rested her hands lightly on her knees, her elbows slightly bent, and the off-white bandages wrapped around her wrists stood out against her plain-colored loungewear.

Fang Ze's steps were hurried, revealing a hint of panic that he could hardly conceal.

When he saw Liang Yu sitting silently in the rattan chair, the bandage on his wrist stung his eyes.

Fang Ze slowed his hurried steps immediately, then walked quietly to Liang Yu.

He didn't look down at Liang Yu as he used to, nor did he bend down to get closer to Liang Yu. Instead, he knelt down directly beside Liang Yu's legs.

The hardness and coldness of the bluestone slab seeped into Fang Ze's knees through his expensive trousers, but he was completely unaware.

Fang Ze's gaze quietly fell on Liang Yu's wrists, which were resting on his knees.

The off-white bandage wrapped around his wrist felt like a needle piercing his heart.

An uncontrollable pain surged from his heart and then spread to his limbs and bones.

Fang Ze cautiously extended a hand, just about to touch Liang Yu's fingertips, when Liang Yu suddenly moved her wrist away half an inch, avoiding Fang Ze's touch.

Liang Yu's movements were very subtle, even carrying a hint of subconscious rejection.

Fang Ze's slender hand suddenly froze in mid-air, his knuckles unconsciously curling up. After pausing for two seconds, he slowly withdrew his hand.

Fang Ze felt a lump of cotton stuck in his throat, a dry and painful sensation. His gaze remained fixed on Liang Yu's wrist, and he asked in a hoarse voice:

"Xiao Yu, how did you hurt your wrist?"

Actually, Liang Yu didn't want to tell Fang Ze about being kidnapped last night.

But considering Fang Ze's sudden and unfounded suspicion, she decided not to play games with him anymore.

They will be officially divorced in another month.

Liang Yu wanted to part ways amicably with Fang Ze.

She glanced at Fang Ze with her lowered eyes and said in a very soft voice:

"I was kidnapped last night, and my wrists were injured by the rope."

Liang Yu's tone was casual and ordinary, as if he were just telling a story that had nothing to do with him.

Fang Ze was startled and suddenly looked up at Liang Yu.

His sharp eyes held a hint of disbelief as he asked urgently:

"You were kidnapped last night? Do you know who kidnapped you? How did you get back? Why didn't you call me last night?"

Liang Yu remained indifferent, replying in a flat tone:

"The people who kidnapped me came to pick me up in a minivan, saying that you arranged for them to come and take me back to Haicheng."

"They tied me up in the car, but I was rescued by a passerby who took me back to Haicheng. That's what happened."

A shocking kidnapping was described in a lighthearted manner by Liang Yu.

It's like telling someone else's story from a long time ago.

Liang Yu's indifferent attitude made Fang Ze feel inexplicably afraid.

No wonder the driver didn't pick up Liang Yu last night.

No wonder Liang Yu's phone was switched off last night.

It turns out that Liang Yu had been kidnapped.

The kidnappers even impersonated him to lower Liang Yu's guard.

Fang Ze suddenly realized that he was a terrible person.

Never in his life had he felt so utterly terrible as he did now.

He regretted it.

He should have picked up Liang Yu last night.

He shouldn't have left Liang Yu alone in Jiangcheng, making her stand by the roadside waiting for the driver.

Fang Ze felt as if a huge black hole had been inexplicably dug into his heart.

He instinctively felt that what was originally filled in the black hole must be the most precious thing in his life.

Because a large part of his heart was missing, he was in excruciating pain, so much so that he couldn't straighten his back.

But apart from feeling excruciating pain, he knew nothing else.

He never knew what the missing piece of his heart was.

He had no idea why what was supposed to fill the black hole was the most precious thing in his life.

The burning pain in Fang Ze's chest forced him to hunch over slightly, no longer able to stand tall as before.

He knelt on the ground, somewhat dejected, looking up at Liang Yu with reddened eyes.

His gaze as he looked up at Liang Yu was filled with both pain and a hint of pleading.

Fang Ze said in a hoarse voice:

"Xiao Yu, I was wrong. No matter what happens in the future, I will never abandon you again."

"Don't worry, I will definitely not let the people who kidnapped you get away with it."

"I will make them pay a hundredfold, a thousandfold."

Liang Yu lowered his eyes and glanced indifferently at Fang Ze.

Her gaze fell on Fang Ze's kneeling figure.

This was the first time Liang Yu had looked at Fang Ze from an overhead perspective.

The elegant white shirt accentuated Fang Ze's broad shoulders and narrow waist.

Fang Ze possessed a gentle and refined demeanor cultivated from years of being immersed in a privileged environment and holding a high position.

His composure and nobility in every gesture, even as he knelt on the ground at this moment, were far beyond what ordinary people could match.

Fang Ze raised his eyes and looked straight at Liang Yu.

Those long, narrow eyelashes were thick and long, her eyes were slightly moist, and the corners of her eyes were slightly red. When she looked at Liang Yu, her eyes revealed a vulnerability and panic that was not easily detected.

Liang Yu had once hoped that Fang Ze would look at her with such seriousness as he did now.

Unfortunately, Liang Yu no longer has any expectations for Fang Ze.

Liang Yu looked at Fang Ze with an unwavering gaze and asked in a flat tone:

"Is Shi Yue out of danger?"

Because Shi Yue was out of danger, Fang Ze had the mind and energy to teach those three thugs a lesson for Liang Yu.

Liang Yu asked such a sarcastic question in a calm and collected manner, as if he had slapped Fang Ze in the face.

Liang Yu thought Fang Ze would angrily retort, but to her surprise, Fang Ze simply lowered her eyelashes and remained silent for a moment before slowly standing up and saying gently:

"Xiao Yu, I won't let you be bullied. I will definitely find the bastards who kidnapped you and make them pay tenfold."

Liang Yu suddenly recalled that Yan Qi seemed to have told her last night, "I'll handle the rest."

She was about to tell Fang Ze that there was no need to investigate when she saw Fang Ze's back as he walked away.

Liang Yu frowned slightly, and could only pray silently that Yan Qi would not run into Fang Ze because of this matter.

The rooftop office of a private equity firm in Haicheng.

Yan Qi was sitting in a genuine leather boss's chair, patiently listening to Kang Liang's report:

"Young Master Qi, based on the contact number provided by the ringleader last night, we have found out that Cao Lan is the mastermind behind the kidnapping of Miss Liang last night."

"There's another thing: DNA sequence comparison shows that Liang Song is not Liang An's biological son."

"Currently, Liang An only has one child, Miss Liang."

Yan Qi's jawline was taut and hard, with a few wisps of hair falling across his brow bone, partially obscuring the chilling aura between his eyes.

He remained silent, his eyes slightly lowered, the color of his pupils hidden in his long eyelashes, making it impossible to discern his emotions.

Yan Qi's gaze was fixed on a certain point in the void, as if he were dismantling a complex game of chess.

Does Liang An know that Liang Song is not Liang An's biological son?

Regardless of whether Liang An knew about this, Cao Lan had only one purpose in dealing with Liang Yu.

They wanted to get rid of Liang Yu.

Cao Lan fears that Liang Yu will discover that Liang Song is not Liang An's biological son, and thus seize control of the Liang Group.

According to the information provided by those three thugs, it is clear that Cao Lan believed that someone in the Liang family was secretly helping Liang Yu to seize control of the Liang Corporation.

So yesterday, Cao Lan wanted to use Liang Yu's kidnapping to lure out who was secretly helping Liang Yu in the Liang family, and then eliminate them as well.

Unfortunately, Cao Lan's plan backfired.

No one in the Liang family was secretly helping Liang Yu.

What made Yan Qi hesitate was whether or not to let Liang Yu know about the situation Liang Yu was about to face.

Judging from the current situation, Cao Lan will definitely have to deal with Liang Yu ruthlessly in order for Liang Song to take over the Liang Group smoothly.

Therefore, Cao Lan and Liang Song must be eliminated.

However, after eliminating them, everything Liang An has will be inherited by Liang Yu.

And the mess that is the Liang Group will fall on Liang Yu's shoulders.

The Liang Group is a family business, and the minority shareholders are all members of the Liang family. Therefore, there is intrigue and backstabbing within the group, and everyone has their own calculations.

Liang Yu's world has always been simple, but dealing with the power struggles within the Liang Group is not an easy task for him.

This is equivalent to Liang Yu entering a world he has never set foot in before.

Yan Qi didn't know if Liang Yu was willing to do this.

He couldn't make the decision for Liang Yu.

He only followed Liang Yu's own choices and decisions.

Yan Qi remained silent for a long time before finally instructing Kang Liang:

"When Zhao Wen visits her next time, tell her everything: Liang Song is not Liang An's biological son, and Cao Lan had her kidnapped."

"I need to know what she's thinking."
