What exactly is Chapter 189 trying to do?
After a tense standoff, Bai Yu successfully took Bai Wei hostage and quickly left the scene.
Out of concern for Bai Wei's safety, Fu Shiyue ultimately chose not to approach them.
He could only watch helplessly as Fu Shiyue led Bai Wei away into the distance, his heart filled with resignation.
However, he did not give up; he firmly believed that there must be a way to rescue Bai Wei.
Bai Yu put her in the car and immediately drove out of Haihua Residential Area, speeding off in the other direction.
Fu Shiyue immediately dialed the phone: "Follow him."
As Bai Yu drove, he glanced through the rearview mirror and had already noticed the car closely following behind.
A cold smile curled at the corner of his lips. He gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands, slammed on the gas, and the car shot off like an arrow.
The scenery outside the car window rushed past, and the wind whistled in my ears.
The car following behind was not to be outdone and sped up to catch up.
On a busy street, two cars engaged in a thrilling chase.
Bai Yu weaved nimbly through the traffic, sometimes making sharp turns, sometimes overtaking, trying to shake off the cars behind him.
Suddenly, a crossroads appeared ahead, and the green light had only a few seconds left. Bai Yu dashed across without hesitation, running the red light. The cars behind were forced to stop and wait for the green light. But as soon as the green light came on, they quickly caught up.
Bai Yu frowned, his eyes resolute. He knew he couldn't let himself be chased like this forever.
He glanced at Bai Wei beside him, gritted his teeth, and sped up again, turning into a secluded path, intending to use the complicated road conditions to shake off his pursuers.
The path was narrow and winding, flanked by towering walls. Bai Yu's car weaved recklessly through the path, kicking up clouds of dust. The pursuing vehicles struggled to keep up, nearly crashing into the walls several times.
Suddenly, Bai Yu discovered that the path led to a dead end.
He was extremely anxious, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Seeing that the pursuing vehicle was about to catch up, he quickly thought of a plan, parked the car on the side of the alley, and immediately pulled Bai Wei out of the car. There, a black sedan was parked, and the people inside saw Bai Yu coming this way.
Bai Yu opened the back door and got in, and the car sped away...
Fu Shiyue's men chased Bai Yu to a dead end and found his car, but Bai Yu was nowhere to be seen. They searched everywhere, but couldn't find the siblings.
They continued their search ahead...
When Fu Shiyue learned that his subordinates had lost track of Bai Yu, his face darkened considerably. He paced back and forth in his office, pondering where Bai Yu might have gone. Suddenly, his phone rang. He answered it; it was Shen Xian'an's voice.
"Any news?"
"No."
Fu Shiyue frowned, a surge of irritation rising within him. "Then why did you call?"
Shen Xian'an said urgently, "Although we haven't found them, I found out that someone was there to meet them when they escaped. It seems they have a clear target."
"Do you think I have time to listen to this right now?" Fu Shiyue said coldly, his voice icy. "What I want is to find her, not this useless analysis."
Shen Xian'an was taken aback by his tone, but still continued, "I just feel that there might be a bigger conspiracy behind this, and Bai Yu alone doesn't have that much ability."
"Keep investigating. Notify me immediately of any news, whether it's about the people who were supposed to meet you or Bai Yu's whereabouts." With that, he hung up the phone. At that moment, his eyes were cold and resolute, and he exuded a chilling aura.
He decided to go out and find Bai Wei himself; he refused to believe that they couldn't be found in such a large city. He put on his coat and strode out of the office.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the vehicle, Bai Wei was sitting inside, her eyes tightly covered by a black cloth strip, making it impossible for her to see her surroundings or the direction of travel.
The atmosphere inside the car was unusually tense. Bai Wei could sense that the people around her seemed to be full of hostility towards her, but she had no idea where they were taking her.
Bai Wei remained unusually calm and did not utter a sound.
Bai Yu sat to the side, his eyes sinister. "Weiwei, be a good girl and listen to your brother. I won't hurt you. We'll be in a safe place soon. Don't expect Fu Shiyue to come and save you."
Bai Wei ignored him, trying to calm herself down and try to determine her location from the sound and vibration of the car.
The car drove for a long time before finally coming to a slow stop.
Bai Wei's eyes were still tightly covered by a black cloth, preventing her from seeing her surroundings at all. She only felt the car shake slightly, then the door opened, and a strange smell rushed out.
Someone grabbed her arm and forcefully pulled her off the car. Bai Wei staggered slightly, but quickly regained her balance. Her feet touched solid ground, and based on the feel and sound under her feet, she determined that she was standing on a pebbly road.
Then, she was led forward. The walk was unusually peaceful, without any unusual sounds or disturbances. Bai Wei thought to herself, based on her previous training experience, she could feel that she was walking on a stone staircase.
Each step was steady, and the height and width of the stone steps were just right, clearly indicating that they had been carefully designed.
As she walked, she suddenly heard a soft creaking sound, like a door being pushed open. Bai Wei's heart raced slightly; she didn't know what awaited her behind the door. As the door was fully pushed open, a rush of fresh air rushed in, and at the same time, the ground beneath her feet became unusually smooth, as if paved with marble.
Bai Wei's heart skipped a beat. The environment here gave her a familiar feeling. Could this be a villa?
Bai Wei was led around several corners in the villa before being forced to sit down in a chair.
The surroundings quieted down, with only the soft sound of breathing. Bai Wei listened carefully and could hear people talking in hushed tones, but the voices were too faint to make out what they were saying.
Suddenly, footsteps approached, and a hand roughly ripped off the blindfold from her eyes. The bright light made her instinctively close her eyes. After her eyes adjusted, she saw Bai Yu standing in front of her with a smug smile on his face.
"Weiwei, just stay here obediently. Fu Shiyue can't save you," Bai Yu said.
Bai Wei looked around; it was a luxuriously decorated living room.
Knowing she couldn't act rashly, she calmly asked, "Brother, what exactly do you want to do?" Before Bai Yu could answer, a commotion erupted outside the villa.
Bai Yu then led her to a room and locked the door.
Bai Wei was searching the room for a way to escape when she suddenly heard a loud argument outside.
It seemed that Bai Yu and the person who was supposed to meet him were arguing, apparently about the payment.
Then, the surroundings suddenly became unusually quiet, as if time had frozen at that moment.
Looking around, the windows were made of wire, without a single gap, as if they were nailed shut. Not even a fly could escape from here.
Bai Yu had already thrown her phone out the car window, so she had no way to contact him.
She needs to calm down and think of a solution...
Bai Wei took a deep breath and began to search the room carefully. She noticed that the wardrobe was very large, so she went over to check it and found a loose wooden board behind it. Bai Wei pushed it hard, and the board opened, revealing a narrow passage.
Without hesitation, she crawled inside; the passageway was filled with an old, musty smell.
Following the passage, Bai Wei heard faint footsteps. She tensed, pressing herself against the wall and holding her breath. The footsteps grew closer; it was Bai Yu searching for her. Once Bai Yu's footsteps faded into the distance, Bai Wei continued forward.
Finally, a door appeared at the end of the passage. Bai Wei opened the door and found herself in the basement of the villa.
This place is filled with junk, and there's also an exit.
Just as she was about to leave, Bai Yu suddenly appeared at the basement entrance like a ghost. His figure looked somewhat sinister in the dim light, especially his fierce eyes, which stared straight at Bai Wei as if he wanted to devour her alive.
"Weiwei, do you think you can escape?" Bai Yu's voice carried a chilling undertone.
However, Bai Wei showed no panic at Bai Yu's sudden appearance. She took a deep breath to calm herself down, then looked calmly at Bai Yu and replied, "I know I can't escape, so are you planning to keep me locked up like this for the rest of my life?"
Bai Yu seemed completely uninterested in her question. He ignored what Bai Wei was saying and simply grabbed her wrist tightly, pulling her into the room without any mercy.
“Weiwei, I didn’t mean it, but you’ve been so disobedient. I’ll let you out once I’ve dealt with Fu Shiyue.” Bai Yu explained as he pulled Bai Wei along, but there was little sincerity in his tone.
Bai Wei forcefully broke free from Bai Yu's grasp, her eyes filled with anger and disappointment. "I don't need you to hold me, I can walk by myself! You're crazy!" With that, she turned and walked towards the room without looking back, leaving Bai Yu standing there alone, a complex expression on his face.
