Chapter 220 Ye Xiaoxiao is in trouble
"Xinglan, your phone."
Chu Xinglan, who was filming, heard her assistant shout at her.
Director Huang quickly called "cut" to give her time to answer the phone.
"Thank you!"
The assistant ran over and handed the phone to Chu Xinglan, who took it and thanked her.
She glanced at her phone screen; it was Ye Xiaoxiao calling. She answered, "Xiaoxiao, why are you calling me all of a sudden?"
"Chu Xinglan, it's me calling you!" The voice that came from the phone was not Ye Xiaoxiao.
Chu Xinglan's expression changed instantly.
It's Sulli!
What do you want to do?
"I need you to come here right now. Remember, don't let anyone follow you, and don't let anyone know. Otherwise, this woman and her family will all die."
"Shirley, come at me if you have a problem, don't hurt others." Chu Xinglan became furious.
"I'll only give you half an hour."
"We can't get there in half an hour at all," Chu Xinglan said anxiously.
"I'll give you another half hour. If you're not here in an hour, then don't bother coming back. Just wait to collect their corpses," Shirley said ruthlessly.
"Shirley, aren't you coming for me? Don't hurt them. I'll do as you say. I can't get there in an hour, but don't worry, I'll get there as fast as I can. Please don't hurt them."
Chu Xinglan tried her best to keep Shirley calm and prevent her from harming Ye Xiaoxiao and the others.
"Stop talking nonsense and come here quickly." Shirley was getting impatient.
"Okay, I'll be right there."
Chu Xinglan hurriedly hung up the phone and glanced at Director Huang.
"Director Huang, I'm sorry, I can't film today, I need to leave for a bit."
"Is something the matter?" Director Huang asked with concern.
"It's nothing," Chu Xinglan forced a smile.
"It's alright, you can go now." Director Huang believed him.
Chu Xinglan was about to leave when Xiao Ze stopped her, asking, "Xinglan, where are you going?"
"I need to go out for a bit."
"What's wrong? Did something happen?" Xiao Ze noticed that Chu Xinglan's expression had turned sour after she received the phone call, and he couldn't help but worry.
Chu Xinglan glanced at Xiao Ze, who was anxious for her. She hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to face everything alone. She couldn't risk Ye Xiaoxiao and the others' lives; Shirley was capable of anything.
"It's nothing, what could possibly happen to me? Don't overthink it."
Chu Xinglan didn't want to say anything more; she just wanted to get to Ye Xiaoxiao as soon as possible.
"Where are you going? I'll go with you." Xiao Ze was still worried, and for Chu Xinglan's safety, he decided to stay by her side.
"No, you still have one more scene to film. Stay here and continue filming. I'm going home."
After saying that, Chu Xinglan hurriedly ran away.
As Xiao Ze watched Chu Xinglan's retreating figure, a vague unease crept into his heart. He quickly picked up his phone and called Gu Ye.
"Senior, were you the one who called Xinglan just now?"
"No, what's wrong?"
"She just received a phone call and then left in a hurry. She didn't look well. Could something have happened?" Xiao Ze explained the situation to Gu Ye.
Upon hearing Xiao Ze's words, Gu Ye's expression hardened, and he immediately called Walker, the sharpshooter responsible for protecting Chu Xinglan in the shadows.
"Boss, what can I do for you?"
"Where did Madam go?"
"Madam got into a taxi, and I'm following her now." Walker, riding a custom-made high-speed motorcycle, closely followed a taxi.
"Which direction is Madam heading?" Gu Ye asked again.
"It seems that Madam went in the direction of Assistant Xue's house."
Gu Ye paused for a moment, then finally instructed, "Keep a close eye on her and make sure she is safe."
"Okay, boss."
After finishing his call with Walker, Gu Ye didn't waste a moment. He immediately connected to an internal phone: "Xue Bai, come over here for a moment."
"Boss, what's wrong?" A moment later, Xue Bai rushed into Gu Ye's office. He hadn't heard Gu Ye's voice so serious in a long time.
"Something might have happened to Ye Xiaoxiao."
"What?" Xue Bai turned pale with fright upon hearing this. "Boss, you must be joking."
"I don't have time to joke with you. Let's hurry over there; maybe we can still make it in time."
Gu Ye looked at Xue Bai with a serious expression.
"I'll go. There's an important meeting waiting for you to attend in person later," Xue Bai said.
“Xinglan went too,” Gu Ye said.
Xue Bai was taken aback for a moment, then quickly said, "I'll get the car ready right now."
Since this matter involves Chu Xinglan, it is already very serious. It concerns the safety of his wife and children, so Xue Bai dared not be negligent.
When Chu Xinglan rushed to Ye Xiaoxiao's place, she saw Ye Xiaoxiao being held captive by Shirley with a knife at her throat, while her sick mother and the nanny who was taking care of them were tied together and sitting on the ground.
"Shirley, isn't your goal to get back at me? Let the innocent people go."
Chu Xinglan stared at Shirley and said sternly.
"Chu Xinglan, you know I'm here to get you, yet you still dare to come. It seems you really care about her."
Sherry brandished the knife in her hand at Ye Xiaoxiao's face.
"Xinglan, don't worry about me, let's go!" Ye Xiaoxiao shouted.
But as soon as she spoke, Shirley punched Ye Xiaoxiao hard in the stomach.
"Shut up!"
Ye Xiaoxiao was in so much pain that she broke out in a cold sweat.
"Shirley, don't touch her!"
Chu Xinglan shouted anxiously. Seeing Ye Xiaoxiao's pale face from the pain, she felt heartbroken. She was pregnant now. What if something happened to her and the child? How could she explain it to Xue Bai?
"If you don't want anything to happen to them, then you'd better listen to me." Sherry had lost all humanity in her desire for revenge, and she didn't care at all whether Ye Xiaoxiao and her unborn child would die.
"I've done everything you asked me to do, what more do you want from me?"
Chu Xinglan was also sweating profusely with anxiety. She noticed that Ye Xiaoxiao's face was getting paler and paler, and that Shirley's attack had probably hurt the baby in Ye Xiaoxiao's womb.
"Did you really come alone?" Shirley didn't believe for a second that Chu Xinglan would disregard her safety and come alone.
"Really, it's just me. I've already shaken off those people who were protecting me," Chu Xinglan said confidently.
Shirley wasn't sure if Chu Xinglan was telling the truth, so she turned to look at Paul.
Paul walked to the door, looked around, then returned to Shirley and said to her, "There's a sniper pointing his finger at your head."
Upon hearing this, Chu Xinglan's legs went weak with fear.
"So, you didn't listen to a word I said." Shirley gave a cold laugh.
"No, I really didn't know there were snipers, Sherry, I beg you, let them go, I'll be your hostage!"
