However, Su Yan did not expect that when she and Assistant Liu returned to Lu Juan’s room, it was empty. The room was a little messy, and it looked like people left in a hurry.
Su Yan froze on the spot. For a moment, her heart turned cold and she broke out in cold sweat.
“Where’s… my mom?” Su Yan said with a trembling voice. She thought that Lu Juan had been taken away by someone. She paused for a moment, but then she thought that if she took her away, how could she take away her daily necessities?
Instantly, she felt more relaxed.
“Madam must have left.” Assistant Liu looked around and concluded.
Su Yan suddenly thought of the van they saw when they came up. It had a dark window. Lu Juan must have left in that van.
“But, who took my mother away?” As soon as Su Yan finished speaking, there was a flurry of footsteps outside the room. Assistant Liu swiftly brought Su Yan to the opposite ward and closed the door of Lu Juan’s ward.
Almost as soon as Assistant Liu finished what he was doing, several people ran over and barged into Lu Juan’s ward without hesitation.
Su Yan and Assistant Liu carefully looked through the window. They saw that after these people entered the room and saw the wreck in the room, they sighed. The leader even knocked on the wall hatefully. “Damn it, we’re late.”
These people didn’t find Lu Juan, but they still searched Lu Juan’s room for a while. After confirming that there was nothing, they left unwillingly.
Looking at the frowning Su Yan, Assistant Liu asked softly, “Miss, what’s wrong?”
Su Yan said, “Don’t you think that this sanatorium’s security measures are very inadequate? These people came in so easily. Do you think that’s appropriate?”
Naturally, it was inappropriate, but the background of this sanatorium was too complicated, and many things were not decided by one family. Therefore, even if they felt that there was a problem, at most, they would not send people in.
Su Yan and Assistant Liu stayed in the opposite ward for a while more. After making sure that those people were not guarding outside the door, they came out of the ward. On the way, Assistant Liu was still worried, so he called the Yun family and got the people guarding in the dark to rush over and escort Miss home.
Assistant Liu’s hunch was right. After Su Yan and Assistant Liu came out of the sanatorium, they were surrounded.
Not far away, the car that Su Yan saw just now was parked. The two young men in the lead matched the young man in Su Yan’s memory.
The young man in the flowery shirt sized up Su Yan and asked in a sloppy manner, “You are Yun Xi from the Yun family? Yun Yi’s daughter?”
Su Yan put on a fearful expression and asked, “Who are you? How do you know my identity?”
Flowery Shirt tilted his head. “There’s no need for you to care about these things. Since you’re Yun Xi, come with us.”
With that, Flowery Shirt waved his hand, and the burly men in black behind him surrounded him. They looked more well-trained than the group he had encountered on the mountain. Their bulging muscles filled their clothes.
“Since you already know that I am the Yun Family’s Yun Xi, yet you still want to do this, aren’t you afraid that the Yun Family will take revenge?” Su Yan put on a fierce appearance while feeling weak inside, but her hands were fiercely clenched together, appearing especially nervous.
Upon hearing Su Yan’s words, Flowery Shirt laughed out loud. He took out the handkerchief and placed it under his nose. He said in a low, muffled voice, “Since I’ve made this deal, I naturally won’t be afraid of your shitty Yun family. The Yun family? Haven’t we sold the children of the Yun family before?”
Human traffickers! Su Yan took a closer look. Although this young man looked very young, the vicissitudes of life in his eyes could not be faked. This person must have taken good care of himself.
However, there was no time for Su Yan to think too much. Those people quickly followed the orders of the Flowery Shirt and surrounded her. They reached out their hands and grabbed Su Yan like zombies.
As Su Yan did not have any cover, Assistant Liu could only defend against these people while diverting his attention to protect Su Yan. Although Assistant Liu was quite skilled, he was distracted after all. He was still in a situation where two fists could not fight four hands, so he was immediately at a disadvantage.
Su Yan looked at Assistant Liu, who had always been refined and cultured, being beaten up badly. She was anxious but at the same time, she hated herself for not being able to do anything. She could only watch from the side.
At that moment, a man seized the opportunity and found an opening in Assistant Liu’s defense. He ran towards Su Yan, who took two steps back.
On one side of the winding mountain road was a towering mountain wall, and on the other side was a dense forest. Su Yan was already standing at the edge of the forest, so when she retreated, she missed her footing and fell down the cliff.
Flowery Shirt, who had been standing at the back with a confident look on his face, was also stunned. Assistant Liu could not believe it. He lay on the edge of the cliff with his eyes wide open.
“This… How can this be? Retreat! Quickly retreat!” Flowery Shirt screamed and ran far away.
