The car drove along the road for a while, then slowly got onto the road.
However, in his mind, he couldn't stop thinking about the figure that had just appeared on the other side of the street.
No matter how one looked at it, its appearance and lines were exactly the same as Wen Tiantian's.
Moreover, the man dressed behind her who made people suspicious of him did not look right.
If that person was really Wen Tiantian, could it be that she was in danger?
Thinking of this possibility, Zhong Lee immediately tensed up, and the hand holding the steering wheel tightened.
A second later, he quickly turned the steering wheel and left the highway, returning to the front of the hotel.
Zhong Lee quickly got out of the car and walked towards the hotel across the street.
The hotel looked shabby and there were few people in it.
The moment he walked in, he saw the owner sitting at the front desk, his head lowered as he played the game on his phone.
The boss looked up at him as he heard someone come in.
"Single room?"
Zhong Lee looked around before shaking his head.
"No, I wanted to ask you, is there someone called Wen Tiantian living here?"
When the boss heard this, his attitude suddenly became a bit colder.
"You're asking me? How would I know? "
Zhong Lee frowned slightly. Most of these hotels were run by people in private. They wouldn't register the name and information of every lodger according to the rules.
In that case, could he only look for it himself?
Zhong Lee was worried, so he turned around and prepared to go up.
The boss suddenly pulled him back.
"Wait, you can't go up if you don't want to."
Zhong Lee had no choice, he took out two red notes from his wallet, slammed it on the table and walked up the stairs.
Fortunately, this hotel was very small. It only had one floor, and it only had twenty rooms.
Not to mention that it was the off-season, and there weren't many people in the hotel.
Zhong Lee walked over and soon heard some voices coming from the room.
He quickly walked over and saw that the door had not been closed. It was left ajar, revealing a gap.
Zhong Lee looked through the gap and instantly widened his eyes in shock.
There was a chair in the middle of the room, and Wen Tiantian was sitting on it.
The man who had been following her was tying her to a chair with a rope.
"Even if you get the money, what can you do?"
Wen Tiantian looked at Ji Yiyan in front of her and advised calmly, "You should be clear that Mrs Ruan and Ji Jingchen will never let you go. Where can you escape to?"
However, Ji Yiyan didn't waver and used a rope to tie Wen Tiantian tightly.
"Of course I have my own methods."
With that, he turned his head to glance at the slightly open door, stood up, and walked over.
He carefully looked outside to make sure that there was no one around before he closed the door and turned to look at Wen Tiantian.
He continued, "When I get the money, you won't have any value left."
Originally, he had made an agreement with Jiang Yutian to kill Wen Tiantian immediately after she was tricked into coming here.
But he changed his mind at the last minute, so he tied them up and threatened them with 8 million.
With that money, he would be able to leave and never have to worry about anything for the rest of his life.
He looked at Wen Tiantian, who was tied up, and thought about his future life. He smiled proudly, took out his cell phone and dialed the castle's number again.
Zhong Lee, who had been hiding, came out from the corner when he saw the door close again.
He looked worriedly at the door, wondering.
From that fleeting glance, he clearly saw that the person who tied Wen Tiantian up was Ji Yiyan!
How could it be him?
Besides, shouldn't Wen Tiantian be staying in the castle?
Ji Jingchen, how did you protect her?
Zhong Lee stood outside the door and pondered constantly on how he could save Wen Tiantian safely.
At the same time, in the castle tens of kilometers away from here, he received another call from Ji Yiyan.
Once, when the phone rang, Ji Jingchen was the first to pick up the receiver.
"Hello?"
"Is the money ready?" The man said.
Ji Jingchen turned around and glanced at the people in the living room. He said calmly, "We still need some time. Let me hear Wen Tiantian's voice first to make sure she's safe."
"Ji Jingchen?"
The other person instantly recognized his voice.
Ji Jingchen slightly squinted his eyes and confirmed his guess.
However, because the person on the other end of the phone knew it was him, his voice became even more arrogant.
"Not ready yet? Why was it so slow? I think you did it on purpose? "
"It will indeed take some time to prepare 8 million in cash without a connection."
Ji Jingchen said without batting an eyelid as he raised his hand towards the technician who was controlling the apparatus at the other end of the table.
As soon as the person received the signal, he quickly controlled the keyboard, continuously confirming the location of the other end of the phone.
However, this would still take some time. The technician gestured to Ji Jingchen to continue stalling for time.
Ji Jingchen lowered his gaze slightly and said into the phone, "I won't give you the money before I confirm Wen Tiantian's safety."
"At least, I'll be relieved if I hear her voice."
At the other end of the line, the voice that had been used after the voice-changer sounded even more impatient.
He complained, "How troublesome!"
After saying that, he paused for a few minutes before another voice sounded.
"Ji Jingchen? It's me. "
Wen Tiantian's voice instantly entered Ji Jingchen's ears.
Seemingly in order for him to be able to clearly identify the sound, the other party had even switched off the voice modulator.
After two days, Ji Jingchen heard this voice again. The part of his heart that was missing seemed to be filled up in an instant.
But what followed was worry and panic.
Even though his emotions were constantly changing, from the sound of his voice, it sounded very calm, as if victory was in his grasp.
He lowered his voice, soothing her with a voice he could barely imagine.
"Don't worry, I'll save you."
This short sentence allowed Wen Tiantian to instantly relax.
As long as Ji Jingchen was around, she would always feel an inexplicable southwest.
But soon, she remembered something else.
Ji Yiyan had clearly said just now that even if Ji Jingchen really sent the money over, he wouldn't let her leave.
He had already planned to kill her after getting the money!
Wen Tiantian panicked when she thought of this.
"Ji Jingchen!" Be careful! "Even if the money was sent over, he wouldn't …"
Before Wen Tiantian could finish her sentence, a "peng" sound suddenly came from the other end of the phone!
It was as if something had collided into Wen Tiantian's body.
