Min Yu turned around, opened the car door, and got in.
However, he did not start the car. Instead, he held his phone and turned it slowly.
Although Huo Yulin's words were deliberate, he still felt something was amiss.
Min Yu tapped on his phone and searched for Huo Yao's number before he called her.
The call went through quickly, but no one picked up. Min Yu only hung up after the last ring.
It was already past 8 pm. Where could Ah Yao have gone? She did not reply to his text or pick up his call. Even Huo Yulin did not know where she was.
Min Yu found it strange. He raised his head to look at the villa before he started the car and left.
An hour after he got home, Min Yu took out his phone to call again.
This time, no one picked up. Instead, the person on the other end hung up after two rings.
Min Yu frowned and his eyes landed on his phone screen. A text message popped up.
It was from an unknown number. The text message contained an address.
It was exactly the same as the message he had deleted earlier.
Min Yu's heart sank when he saw the message.
He received the same address as soon as Huo Yao hung up. It did not seem like a coincidence.
As he pondered, he dialed the number that sent him the message.
The phone rang once before it was picked up. However, the person on the other end did not take the initiative to speak. Min Yu held his phone tightly with a cold gleam in his eyes. After half a minute of silence, he asked directly. "Where is she?"
Perhaps because he spoke first, the person on the other end finally responded. The person sneered softly and said calmly, "I thought you were good at keeping your cool."
Min Yu narrowed his eyes. Not many people knew his private number. Based on the way the person addressed him, it was obvious that they knew him. Judging from his tone, it was highly likely that Huo Yao was in their hands.
Before Min Yu could say anything, the person on the other end spoke again.
"I've sent you the address. That girl's life is in your hands now. I'll give you 20 minutes. If you don't show up in 20 minutes, I'll have to say goodbye." The person paused. "Oh yes. I don't like crowds. Do as you see fit, Young Master Min."
With that, he hung up the phone.
Min Yu couldn't hide the murderous intent in his eyes when he heard the line go dead. He stood up and strode out of the room.

On the other side, Yuan Huan hung up the phone with a smirk on his lips. He glanced sideways at the gunshot wound on his left arm, which was still bleeding. It was as if he was already numb to it and did not take it to heart.
He lowered his head and made another call. He instructed his men to prepare in the dark and went to the basement again.
His hand pressed on the door lock, and the door opened automatically.
Yuan Hen walked in.
Yuan Xi was leaning against the metal bed as she tried to wake up the unconscious Huo Yao. When she saw Yuan Huan enter, she instinctively tightened her grip on Huo Yao's arm and her legs trembled uncontrollably.
Even though she was afraid, she still stood in front of the bed and glared at Yuan Huan. "Yuan Huan, don't come over."
Yuan Huan glanced at Yuan Xi coldly. He snorted and walked toward the metal bed as if he didn't hear her.
Seeing this, Yuan Xi grabbed a metal container beside her and threw it at Yuan Huan. However, she was too weak to do anything to him.
