Shen Junyu had already received the news that Shen Qinglan had returned, and he and Wen Xiyao hurried to the hospital, “Lanlan.”
Shen Junyu looked Shen Qinglan up and down, left and right, front and back, and when he saw that her arm was wrapped in gauze, his expression changed instantly, “Are you injured? Is the injury serious?”
Shen Qinglan pulled him away, “Brother, I’m fine, it’s just a minor injury, but Fu Hengyi was worried, so he bandaged me so thickly.”
Shen Junyu asked Fu Hengyi for confirmation, “Really?”
Fu Hengyi nodded calmly, “Well, it’s just a little scratch, but the wound is bandaged well so it won’t get infected.”
Shen Junyu nodded in agreement. Wen Xiyao finally felt relieved when she saw that Shen Qinglan was safe and sound. “Qinglan, who did this?”
They only knew that Shen Qinglan and Yan Xi were taken away, but they didn’t know why they were taken away or by what.
“Let’s talk about this when we get back.” Shen Qinglan didn’t want to say more now. Although Shen Junyu was anxious, he didn’t continue to ask. After all, this was the hospital corridor and it was not suitable to talk about this.
“Shen Qinglan, you guys go now.” Yan Shengyu walked out of the ward and said coldly, “We will take care of Yan Xi ourselves.”
Shen Qinglan paused for a moment, “Let Douglas stay. He is an authority on psychology and knows Yan Xi’s condition best.”
“We will find a doctor ourselves, so we won’t trouble you. I don’t want to see you now, so please go away.” Yan Shengyu ordered them to leave.
His cold tone made Shen Junyu frown. Just as he was about to speak, he was stopped by Shen Qinglan, “Okay, you can call me if you need anything.”
After leaving the hospital, Shen Junyu looked unhappy. “Lanlan, that was the kid from the Yan family, right? He spoke so harshly. What does he mean?”
“Brother, this is my fault. If it weren’t for me, Yan Xi wouldn’t have…”
Wen Xiyao didn’t think so. “Qinglan, I don’t think it was because of you that Yan Xi was arrested. Yu Xiaoxuan was arrested with Yan Xi, but the gang let her go and took Yan Xi away alone. Don’t you think this is strange?”
Wen Xiyao’s words were like a wake-up call. Yes, this group of people came for Shen Qinglan, there was no doubt about that, but why was only Yan Xi taken away after arresting Yu Xiaoxuan and Yan Xi?
Shen Qinglan naturally knew that there was someone behind the scenes, but she didn’t know who that person was. When she saw Yan Xi’s expression, her rationality disappeared instantly, and she didn’t even remember to question him.
“Sister Xiyao, Yan Xi was arrested because of me. I failed to protect Yan Xi. I am sorry to the Yan family. How is Xiaoxuan?”
“She’s fine. Someone took her to the hospital, but they didn’t leave their name.”
“Is she not hurt?”
“No, she was just given an overdose of sleeping pills. She was fine after having her stomach washed. She was just worried about you and kept asking if you were back.”
As he was talking, a black shadow rushed towards Shen Qinglan. Seeing who it was, Shen Qinglan did not hide, “Qinglan, you scared me to death, wuwuwu…”
The person who came was Yu Xiaoxuan who was just mentioned.
“I’m fine, don’t worry.” Shen Qinglan patted her shoulder and comforted her softly.
“Wuwuwu…, you have no idea how worried I was about you. Now I’m so glad to see that you’re okay.”
“Okay, don’t cry. I’m fine now.” Shen Qinglan patted her shoulder.
Han Yi got out of the car and was relieved to see that Shen Qinglan was safe and sound. He looked at Yu Xiaoxuan and teased, “Isn’t it embarrassing for a grown-up to cry like this?”
Yu Xiaoxuan raised her head from Shen Qinglan’s arms and wiped away her tears, “It’s shameful to despise me, then go find someone else.”
Han Yi immediately surrendered, “Oh, auntie, I was wrong. You are not embarrassing, instead I am the one who is embarrassing.”
“Hmph.” Yu Xiaoxuan hummed, took a look, and didn’t see Yan Xi, “Qinglan, where is Yan Xi, is she okay?”
The smile on Shen Qinglan’s face faded, “She’s still in the hospital.”
“Is she hurt? I’ll go check on her.”
“Don’t go up.” Shen Qinglan held her back, “Her relatives are accompanying her now, let’s go another day.”
Yu Xiaoxuan thought about it and nodded, “Okay, you should go back and rest as well. I see you have lost weight.”
Shen Qinglan nodded and followed Fu Hengyi into the car. Shen Qinglan was sitting in Shen Junyu’s car. Seeing that the car was full, Yu Xiaoxuan could only pout and follow Han Yi into his car.
When they got back to Shen’s house, before they stopped the car, Chu Yunrong came up to them, “Qinglan, Qinglan, how are you?” Chu Yunrong grabbed Shen Qinglan’s arm, looked her up and down, and then hugged her, “Qinglan, you scared your mother to death, you know.”
Shen Qinglan was a little uncomfortable being hugged by Chu Yunrong, but she didn’t push her away. She just patted her shoulder gently and said, “Mom, I’m fine.”
“You were kidnapped and yet you say that you’re fine. Then what exactly does it mean to be in trouble?” Chu Yunrong was about to cry.
Three days ago, she accidentally overheard the conversation between Shen Junyu and Wen Xiyao and learned that Shen Qinglan had been kidnapped. She almost fainted at that time.
After interrogating Shen Junyu, she found out that the kidnapping was not for money, but for revenge. At that time, Chu Yunrong’s face was pale and her body was shaky. This reminded her of the scene when Shen Qinglan was abducted and sold. At that time, Shen Qinglan was also like this. After being taken away, she never came back.
“Mom, be gentle, or grandpa will find out.” Shen Junyu said from the side.
Chu Yunrong lowered her voice, “Qinglan, what’s wrong with your hand?” Seeing that her hand was wrapped in gauze, Chu Yunrong’s heart, which had just been relieved, was instantly lifted up again.
Shen Qinglan said indifferently, “It’s just a minor scratch. Fu Hengyi was worried about infection, so he bandaged it tightly.”
Chu Yunrong was still worried and wanted to check. At this time, Mr. Shen came out and saw Shen Qinglan. He smiled and said, “Lanlan, are you back from traveling with Hengyi?”
Shen Qinglan’s eyes flickered and she nodded, “I just came back. Is Grandpa okay?”
Mr. Shen nodded with a smile, “Is traveling very tiring? I see you have lost weight.”
“Actually, I’m not thinner. It’s just that you haven’t seen me for a long time, grandpa, so you feel that I’m thinner.” Shen Qinglan walked to Grandpa Shen and said with a smile.
Seeing Mr. Shen notice the gauze on her hand, she repeated what she had just explained to Chu Yunrong.
“You, why are you always so careless?” Old Master Shen scolded, “I’ll ask Sister Song to make you something delicious tonight to nourish you and Hengyi.”
Shen Qinglan nodded with a smile and helped the old man into the house.
Shen Junyu and Fu Hengyi looked at each other, and Wen Xiyao took Chu Yunrong’s arm with a tactful look, “Auntie, let’s go to the kitchen to prepare some delicious food for Qinglan. She has suffered a lot during this period, and she needs to be nourished.”
Chu Yunrong nodded quickly and followed Wen Xiyao in.
Only Shen Junyu and Fu Hengyi were left in the garden.
“What exactly is going on with this kidnapping?” Shen Junyu asked in a deep voice.
“They are from BK. I had some grudges with them before, and this time they are coming for me.” Fu Hengyi said. He had no intention of shirking responsibility.
Shen Junyu’s expression was indistinct, and he looked at Fu Hengyi dimly.
“I was negligent this time, but there will definitely not be a next time.”
Shen Junyu looked at him steadily and said, “This is what you said. I hope you can do it.”
Fu Hengyi nodded seriously. He would not allow such a situation to happen a second time.
“Who is BK?” Shen Junyu asked him.
“BK is a very famous mercenary group in the world. The people in it are very powerful, especially the leader King. I have fought with him many times. In an operation last year, many of their people died. This time is revenge for that incident.”
“How strong are they? What if I spend money to hire other people to deal with them?” Shen Junyu said.
“Many mercenaries don’t want to mess with BK people because they are ruthless and have no principles. Leave this matter to me. I have my own plans.” Fu Hengyi immediately dispelled his idea.
Shen Junyu didn’t agree, but he didn’t object either. He asked Fu Hengyi about some things about BK, and went into the house after Chu Yunrong asked them to come for dinner.
After dinner, Shen Qinglan accompanied the old man for a walk, and then went out after Mr. Shen fell asleep.
After Shen Qinglan left, Mr. Shen, who had fallen asleep, opened his eyes. He sighed softly. He knew that Shen Qinglan was in trouble. He understood a little bit by looking at Chu Yunrong’s expression. It was just that his family hoped that he didn’t know, so he pretended not to know. He had been worried for the past few days, and today when he saw Shen Qinglan return safely, he was finally relieved.
Mr. Fu was truly unaware of this matter. Just two days before Shen Qinglan was kidnapped, Fu Jingting had arranged for the old man to go to the capital city for recuperation, and he was not in the capital at all.
Since Fu Hengyi was back, he naturally had to go back to the military region to report to his superiors, so he left after lunch.
