Tang Yu was alert to the sounds around him, trying to determine if there was any danger. His chest rose and fell vigorously, and his palms tightly grasped Tang Shi's arms, fearing that he would accidentally run around and get into trouble.
Seeing that she ignored him, Tang Shi assumed that she didn't refuse.
In the darkness, her outline was made more three-dimensional, and her eyes, which were looking elsewhere, were filled with light.
At such a close distance, she held his arm for such a long time...
Tang Shi couldn't help swallowing.
Taking advantage of the chaos and secretly kissing someone on the cheek shouldn't be a capital crime, right?
The loud noise of the crystal chandelier passing, and besides the instinctive panic of the people, Tang Yu heard some low and orderly commands mixed in the noise.
It seemed as if they were conveying to each other: looking for ShenJi and LiShuang.
"Tang Shi..."
Tang Yu's words suddenly got stuck in his throat, because when he tilted his head, he felt a soft touch on the corner of his lips, which stayed firmly on his lips.
Tang Shi was stunned, and the palm of his hand on her waist clenched nervously.
He never expected that she would turn around suddenly.
Their lips touched, but they didn't move any closer, but it was enough to make Tang Shi's heart beat wildly faster.
Tang Yu's eyes widened, and it took him several seconds to react. He turned his face away to avoid the unexpected kiss, not knowing how to explain it.
"I'm sorry, I..."
"Don't be sorry, I did it on purpose." Tang Shi almost instinctively turned his head to pursue her lips.
Some people wanted to deepen the kiss greedily.
"Hmm…"
Tang Yu didn't dare to make too much noise, nor did he dare to push him into the darkness, so he could only keep pushing his chest gently.
"Sister, stop pushing me away."
Tang Shi's voice was low and pleading. He hugged her waist tightly and pressed her close to him. He held her cheek in his palm to stop her from running away. He covered her lips again, asking for a kiss that belonged only to her.
…
ShenYuci's eyes were gloomy in the darkness. He didn't expect something like this to happen. He whispered to the person beside him.
"ShenJi is injured. Find him and don't let him get out alive."
Zhong Wen nodded: "Yes."
The entire hall lost power for a total of ten minutes before the emergency power supply was connected.
The lights came on again, revealing the shattered chandelier and piano, guests scattered around but refusing to gather together, and a dead body lying under the empty stage, still holding the gun pointed at LiShuang.
ShenYuci glanced at the corpse, anger flashing in his eyes.
He walked towards the body on crutches and picked up the gun from his hand, cracking his knuckles until they turned white.
The shooter committed suicide...
Tang Yu's back was against the pillar, her lipstick was smudged, and she was still trapped in Tang Shi's arms, being scolded in a low voice.
"Open."
Tang Shi put his index finger on her lips: "Shh."
Some guests came to their senses and wanted to leave immediately, with some complaints in their tone of shock.
"Boss Shen, I have something else to do at home, can you let me leave first?"
ShenYuci slowly raised his eyes, looked at him with red eyes, and a word popped out from his lips.
"Able."
The man smiled, greeted, and walked towards the door.
Next second.
"Bang——"
A shot to the head came without warning, and the man fell straight down like a puppet with its strings broken, revealing ShenYuci holding a gun behind him.
The few short exclamations in the conference hall were stifled, and the place fell into complete silence.
Tang Shi pursed her lips, having a bad feeling.
ShenYuci glanced at the mess at the scene. After all his calculations, something still went wrong. His cold voice echoed throughout the venue.
"Everyone, a suite has been arranged upstairs. An accident occurred tonight. It was my negligence. Please go back to your room and have a good rest. I will give everyone a satisfactory answer."
A partner who had a good relationship with ShenYuci smiled flatteringly.
"Mr. Shen, I have to go on a business trip tomorrow, how about you..."
Another gunshot was heard, and warm blood splattered on the people around him, but ShenYuci downplayed it.
"Everyone is a suspect, so don't make me say it a second time."
ShenYuci's men rushed in from everywhere to control the situation.
Zhong Wen whispered beside ShenYuci.
"Boss Shen, the person escaped through the small door near the river."
ShenYuci closed his eyes and took a deep breath, clenching his teeth: "Find a way to bring LiShuang back."
Zhong Wen nodded: "Yes."
The remaining guests in the venue were controlled and went upstairs to their assigned rooms in an orderly manner.
Tang Shi subconsciously held Tang Yu's hand tightly.
"Don't get separated from me, we live together."
Tang Yu wanted to break free, but the situation was not good. She couldn't let anything happen to her parents' son.
She took the initiative to hold his hand: "Okay."
Although Tang Shi didn't know whether his boss would betray him.
But at this moment, it's worth it.
ShenYuci looked at the document in his hand.
He turned and handed it to the person next to him: "Go and deal with these assets."
The man took the document: "Yes."
A night passed.
All the guests' mobile phones were taken away for inspection, and the bodies were still lying in the same positions.
Zhong Wen returned to ShenYuci's side with the documents in his hand, looking unhappy.
"Boss Shen, all the assets here are just empty shells, except for a few properties that are worth some money..."
ShenYuci sat on the chair, emitting an lingering haze. He opened his scarlet eyes and clenched the end of his crutch in his palm.
ShenJi actually dared to play tricks on him?
But on second thought, all this is the fault of the old man in the family. If ShenJi does not live to be thirty years old, all the assets of the Shen family will be donated to charity.
Just when ShenYuci was immersed in hatred, the technical department also came to report the situation.
"Mr. Shen, we have done a preliminary investigation and found nothing suspicious, except for the eldest daughter of the Tang family, who had contact with Miss Li and ShenJi some time ago."
ShenYuci reached out and took the printed reports.
LiShuang planned to start her own company, and Tang Yu took the initiative to provide support, including her participation in the Jiang Mi kidnapping incident.
"Tang Yu." ShenYuci narrowed his eyes and read her name.
Suddenly he broke into a smile.
His good friend LiShuang wanted to be independent without telling him?
So Tang Yu chose to cooperate with ShenJi?
So what role does LiShuang play?
Liar? Or betrayer?
ShenYuci lowered his head and laughed out loud. His hoarse voice was no longer as gentle as before. It was full of morbid paranoia and sounded a little weird.
Zhong Wen pursed his lips.
"Mr. Shen, is it possible that Miss Li has been on ShenJi's side from the beginning?"
ShenYuci's laughter stopped abruptly.
He raised his eyes sinisterly: "Then catch her at all costs."
-
At the same time.
The phone beside LiShuang's pillow rang.
Tang Shi called LiShuang only after making sure it was safe. The first words she said when she answered the phone were urgent.
"I think something's going to happen!"
LiShuang didn't know how she fell asleep in ShenJi's arms. She gently took away his arm from her waist, got out of bed and went to the bathroom to listen.
"What's wrong?"
"ShenYuci has gone crazy." Tang Shi found it hard to understand: "He actually put all of us under house arrest here."
LiShuang frowned: "Did he find anything about you?"
Tang Shi also locked himself in the bathroom: "It's okay for now. After all, they are all well-known figures in Jiangcheng. He doesn't dare to do anything too outrageous. He just collected everyone's cell phones. I have two cell phones."
LiShuang felt a little relieved.
"So what do you need me to do?"
Tang Shi was also unsure: "I'm just afraid that something might happen. You have to find a way to get my sister out safely."
LiShuang rubbed his eyebrows.
He regretted involving him, but the commotion at that time did distract their attention and gave them time to leave.
"I..."
As soon as the words came out of her mouth, LiShuang heard the sound of a door being broken on the phone, followed by Tang Shi's angry scolding as he picked up the phone.
"What are you doing?"
"Please come with us, Miss Tang."
Tang Yu had no time to completely destroy all traces in the phone. He guessed that this would happen and calmly comforted the emotional Tang Shi.
"I'm fine, let go."
