"I can't just stand by and watch her get taken away," I struggled to break free from Uncle Zhao's grip.
"Calm down, Lu Fan!" Uncle Zhao said firmly, gripping my shoulders. "They're not after you. If you rush out, you'll only make them more alert and put Jia Yi in even greater danger."
I clenched my teeth, suppressing the anxiety in my heart as I watched the men in black force Xu Jiayi into a black sedan parked by the roadside, then quickly disappear into the night.
"Where will they take her?" I asked, my voice filled with concern.
"They're taking her to a deal," Uncle Zhao said, his gaze fixed on the departing black car. "They kidnapped Xu Jiayi just to force Lin Tianyu to make a choice."
"Choice?" I asked, confused.
"Yes, they want Lin Tianyu to give up his family and everything else in exchange for Xu Jiayi's safety," Uncle Zhao explained.

"Why?" I still couldn't understand. "Why would they do this? What do they want?"
"Lu Fan, there are some things I can't tell you right now. Just remember, their target isn't Xu Jiayi; it's Lin Tianyu and the power of the Lin family," Uncle Zhao said, looking at me with a complex expression in his eyes.
"So what do we do now?" I asked, feeling lost.
"We have to find them and rescue Jia Yi," Uncle Zhao said firmly.
"We? How are we going to rescue her? We have no weapons and no ability," I couldn't help but retort.
"I know, but we have to try." Uncle Zhao looked at me with determination in his eyes. "Lu Fan, trust me, we still have a chance."
I remained silent, gazing at Uncle Zhao's resolute expression. My heart was filled with both hope and anxiety.
"Lu Fan, don't be afraid. I'm here; I will protect you." Uncle Zhao patted my shoulder, his tone full of encouragement.
I took a deep breath, looking at Uncle Zhao in front of me. A warm feeling surged within me, a sense of being trusted and relied upon.
"Alright, let's go together." I nodded, my gaze firmly fixed ahead.

Meanwhile, inside the black sedan, Xu Jiayi was bound with ropes by the kidnappers, her mouth taped shut, only able to make muffled sounds.
She watched the scenery outside fly by in reverse, her heart filled with fear and despair.
"Let me go! What do you want? Money? I can give you whatever you want, just let me go," Xu Jiayi struggled to free herself from the ropes, but it was futile.
"Shut up!" one of the kidnappers said coldly, pressing the gun against Xu Jiayi's temple as a threat.
Xu Jiayi fearfully closed her mouth, not daring to make another sound.
She had no idea where the kidnappers were taking her or what they intended to do. Her mind was filled with confusion and unease.
She thought of Lin Tianyu, recalling his promises to her during their engagement banquet that day and reflecting on her choices.
Back then, she could have been with the person she loved but chose Lin Tianyu instead—choosing wealth and status over love.
Now, she regretted it.
She regretted her choices, regretted not having the courage to pursue her own happiness, and regretted treating love as a transaction.
But all of this was already beyond redemption.
The only thing she could do now was pray that Lin Tianyu could save her, pray that this was just a nightmare.
However, she knew that this was just a nightmare, a real and cruel nightmare.
Her fate was already in someone else's hands.
She could only passively wait, waiting for the judgment of fate.

"They should take Xu Jiayi to the villa in the suburbs; it's a private property of the Lin family," Uncle Zhao analyzed, his gaze fixed on the phone screen displaying Xu Jiayi's location.
I looked at the phone screen, filled with anxiety, unsure of what to do.
"We're going there to save her, but we have no weapons and no ability. How can we rescue her?" I asked, my tone full of concern.
"Don't worry, I've already made arrangements," Uncle Zhao said calmly, his eyes filled with confidence.
