Chapter 510: Chapter 460: Some Love, Accompanies through Life and Death
 

Shen Chi closed his eyes slightly, listening to the footsteps in the forest!

The sound moved toward the south, and it grew faster and faster, faster and faster…

Shen Chi placed his finger on the trigger, with one hand sticking out of the window, and with a “bang,” he fired a bullet in the direction where the sound had disappeared!

“Ah!” Someone in the woods let out a scream of pain.

It was too dark outside, especially in the birch forest, where one couldn’t see their hand before their face.

Shen Chi didn’t know where his shot had hit, but he saw the figures seemed to pause.

“Chase!” Shen Chi’s gaze turned fierce, and he said to Xiao Mo.

“Okay!” Upon hearing the command, Xiao Mo opened the car door and jumped out from the driver’s seat!

The other people in Xiao Mo’s car also jumped out, following behind Xiao Mo.

The truck had driven far away, and they couldn’t catch up, but Shen Chi had memorized the license plate number.

Everyone was ready, just waiting to chase after it.

If they could catch up, they would surely find useful clues.

However, just when Shen Chi was about to join Xiao Mo in chasing into the birch forest, suddenly, he received a message on his phone from Xu Chaomu.

Tonight, no matter who texted him, he wouldn’t look at it.

Xu Chaomu sent a message, and he had no intention of looking at it either.

But his heart gave a tug—it was past two in the morning, why would Xu Chaomu text at this hour, unless something had happened?

His blood raced through his veins. No, he preferred to believe that she just couldn’t sleep.

His finger tapped the message open, and he saw a line of words: Withdraw all your people immediately!

Shen Chi’s eyes, sharp as obsidian, suddenly grew colder, and his heart thumped violently.

Chaomu was in trouble!

This was Xu Chaomu’s phone, but now, it was in a stranger’s hands.

It seemed likely that Shen Shihan’s men had taken Xu Chaomu, judging from the message.

Shen Chi cursed under his breath, clenching his teeth, and immediately dialed Xu Chaomu’s cell phone number.

No one answered!

Soon, another message came: You have three seconds to withdraw with your men!

This message also came with a photo.

The photo wasn’t very clear, but it was discernable.

Xu Chaomu was wearing a pink dress tonight, and in the photo, she was tied to a table, with the rope cutting into her.

“Mumu!” Shen Chi’s pupils suddenly constricted.

She was pregnant!

Indeed, Shen Shihan was far more ruthless than he had imagined.

Even after five years, Shen Shihan still didn’t see Chaomu as family. And there was no sign of remorse!

The countdown began in the text message, with the sender first sending the number “three.”

“Two.”

Shen Chi bit his lip, helpless. Xu Chaomu was in their grasp.

“Xiao Mo, take everyone and leave, don’t chase any further!” Shen Chi barked an order.

Xiao Mo’s face was full of confusion: “Boss Shen, what happened?”

“Just take everyone and leave!”

Shen Chi was afraid of nothing, unphased even by the most dangerous snares, but his only concern was Xu Chaomu’s safety.

She was his everything, more important than his own life.

He could give up anything, but he had to ensure her safety.

One day, he would not let Shen Shihan off the hook!

“Yes.” Xiao Mo had no choice but to follow Shen Chi’s order.

“Everyone fall back, get in the cars!” Xiao Mo commanded his subordinates.

Shen Chi dialed Xu Chaomu’s number again, still with the same result: no one answered.

But he knew that the person who had texted him must be nearby.

He was in the light; every move he made was being watched by someone lurking in the dark.

Probably after seeing Shen Chi’s men all get into the cars, the person texted him again: “Leave this place!”

Shen Chi’s hawk-like eyes scanned the surroundings, but he discovered nothing, not the slightest rustle.

He could risk his own life, but he would never gamble with Xu Chaomu’s.

He turned and got into Xiao Mo’s car, sitting in the passenger seat.

“Drive,” Shen Chi said.

“Yes, Boss Shen,” Xiao Mo nodded, turning the car around.

He still didn’t know what had actually happened, but judging by his knowledge of Shen Chi, anything that made Shen Chi give up a pursuit had to be related to Xu Chaomu!

Soon, several cars left the birch woods.

Shen Chi watched helplessly as the truck slipped away from under his nose.

The contest with Shen Shihan was far from over!

“Boss Shen, what happened?” Xiao Mo saw that Shen Chi’s face remained stern.

“Someone is using Xu Chaomu to threaten me,” Shen Chi said coldly.

“Where is the lady now?”

“I don’t know.”

“Vice-President Shen really is…” Even Xiao Mo was lost for words.

He could guess that the person who had texted Shen Chi must be one of Shen Shihan’s men.

Five years ago, Shen Shihan had Zhou Peitian kidnap Xu Chaomu, and five years later, it was the same story.

Did that man really have no feelings at all? Was his heart made of iron?

Xu Chaomu, his sister that he had grown up with for eight years.

Xiao Mo silently sighed. Everyone said Shen Chi was heartless, but Shen Chi would never do something like kidnapping innocent women and children.

Why has Shen Shihan never considered what he would do if one day, his beloved third wife was kidnapped?

Xiao Mo felt helpless; Shen Shihan understood Shen Chi too well.

Xu Chaomu was Shen Chi’s greatest weakness.

He was very clear on how much Shen Chi loved Xu Chaomu.

Some loves are accompanied by life and death.

Shen Chi fell into deep thought, frowning deeply and holding his cell phone.

Before long, Xiao Mo’s car had left the birch forest behind.

The chilly wind of the early morning still carried a hint of coolness. The moon had hidden itself away at some point, and the sky was pitch black, without a shred of light.

This place was too quiet, completely devoid of human figures.

The birch forest was left far behind, and only much later did the sound of the wind rustling the dense foliage vanish.

Shen Chi sent a message to the other party: Where is Chaomu?

The other side did not reply for a long time.

Xiao Mo’s car gradually left the area, moving away from the birch forest, away from the beach.

Shen Chi clenched his fists, Shen Shihan, you wait.

The car began heading towards the noisy city center, making what had just happened seem worlds apart.

The city was ablaze with lights, and even at three in the morning, there were still many people moving around in the squares and shopping malls.

Xiao Mo’s car weaved through the streets, where the busiest spots were still bustling with traffic like flowing water.

“Boss Shen, you’re injured. You need to deal with that wound immediately, or, I can take you to the hospital,” Xiao Mo glanced at Shen Chi’s arm.

The glass had embedded itself deeply into the flesh. Blood continued to seep out, staining Shen Chi’s arm and shirt red.

This… it must be painful, Xiao Mo thought as he winced, a surge of concern washing over him.

Yet Shen Chi acted as if nothing had happened, not once mentioning the wound.

“Don’t worry about me!”

“Your wound might get infected…” Xiao Mo remained concerned.

“I told you, don’t worry about me!” Shen Chi said, a touch of impatience in his voice.

“Oh, okay.”

Xiao Mo shook his head; at this moment, this man’s heart was solely focused on Xu Chaomu.

A silence followed, and the car became very quiet.
