The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife Chapter 1099: Kidnapping Gu Xin

"Maybe, at least I don’t remember knowing anyone, and using the letter method to notify me clearly doesn’t want others to see." Ghost hesitated a little while holding the address in his hand.

"Let it be, as long as you don’t go, if those hooligans come again, I’ll definitely call the police to grab them." Gu Xin, who has always been opposed to underground forces, had a somewhat threatening tone in her words. Ghost anticipated this; in fact, he was indifferent to Lang’s promises of the "Vice Leader position," "glory and wealth," or "power and beauties." What many people dream about in society, he views as worthless. It’s no wonder that after Ghost rejected Lang’s offers of so many benefits, the little thugs around were shocked. They’ve been in the game for years without gaining so much, yet Ghost dismisses it lightly. Maybe before losing his memory, Ghost had already been exposed to luxury and honor too long, so even after amnesia, he instinctively was uninterested in these things.

"Alright, anyway, I don’t plan to go." Ghost casually put the note into his pocket and busied himself with his work.

"By the way, I’m going back to East Sea University at noon, accompany me, then we can go for a stroll or something."

"Hey, big miss, you’re carefree now, but I have work at hand." Ghost felt somewhat amused and helpless; Gu Xin was only twenty-three, a university graduate at most, still quite playful.

"If the dean finds out I’m taking leave to play with you, it wouldn’t be good. Besides, my medical bills are still covered by the hospital." Ghost politely declined Gu Xin; what he wanted most now was to repay his medical bill, the dean is a good person, he doesn’t want to let his kindness down.

"Cut, alright then." Gu Xin bit her lip, somewhat displeased, and left the room.

"Just a child." Ghost sighed helplessly, tidied up his security uniform, grabbed the baton, and began his patrol in the hospital.

Hospital, employee canteen.

"Gu Li, have you seen Xin’er at all?" Just as Ghost was eating lunch alone, an urgent voice came from behind him.

"Dr. Gu." Ghost turned curiously, and the person turned out to be Gu Jian, with his sweat-drenched appearance, as if he had encountered something urgent.

"Gu Xin told me she’s going back to East Sea University at noon."

"Yeah, she told me too. But... I just called her, and it’s consistently unreachable. No reply to messages either, what should we do now?" Gu Jian said anxiously, unlike his usual calm demeanor.

"What, can’t be reached, what’s up?" Ghost heard and also panicked; although Gu Xin might throw small tantrums occasionally, she would never worry those around her. As for not hearing it, that’s impossible, it’s been so long, she should have seen the messages.

"I’m really worried now, her classmates haven’t seen her on the university side either, I’m afraid something might have happened."

"Don’t worry, Dr. Gu, you call the police first, I’ll go find people immediately." Ghost said without a second thought, leaving his meal unfinished and rushing out directly; as for taking leave, he could get a colleague to do it on his behalf.

"Alright, thank you very much then."

Ghost rushed out of the hospital straight away; since Gu Xin mentioned going to East Sea University, that’s where he should look. Remembering she should be in the medical department, he could find her classmates there, hopefully able to inquire something.

East Sea University.

Ghost asked around and found the medical department building, with many students doing experiments inside. Ghost found the tutor’s office.

"Sir, who are you here for?" one of the teachers asked curiously.

"Sorry to disturb, I’m Gu Xin’s friend, I can’t get through to her now, so I came to ask about her whereabouts."

"What, can’t reach Gu?"

"Yes, that’s why I’m asking if she came to school. She told me she’d come at noon, but I can’t contact her now."

"Don’t worry, I’ll head to the security room and request surveillance checks." That tutor, upon hearing, hastily went out to check surveillance footage.

Ring ring.

Suddenly, Ghost’s phone rang, upon opening, it was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello, who is this?"

"Gu Li, can’t find your little girlfriend?" a hoarse voice came from the other end, unrecognizable to others, but Ghost immediately recognized it; the caller was Lang.

"You’re Lang, how do you know, did you abduct Gu Xin?" Gu Li’s heart tightened, but he quickly understood that Lang was blackmailing him to "attend personally." A surge of murderous intent arose within him; this gang indeed wouldn’t let things go.

"Haha, no need to worry, Mr. Gu Li, I haven’t done anything to Miss Gu Xin, just hope you can personally come, the address was delivered by my men this morning."

"That envelope was indeed from you." Ghost coldly stated, "You dare touch a hair on Gu Xin, I’ll wipe out your Black Sand Gang."

"Rest assured, I won’t harm Lady Gu, instead, I’ve prepared a feast, awaiting the two of you."

"Oh, also, Mr. Gu Li, please don’t call the police, I don’t want things to get complicated."

"Fine, just you wait." Ghost said and hung up the phone. Since he discovered Gu Xin’s whereabouts, he had to go rescue her, but he could only go alone. Although Lang claimed to "treat" both well, if he did call the police, Lang might really take action. For safety’s sake, Ghost decided to go solo, although he was confident with his skills to rescue her.

East Sea, basement of World Tower.

"It’s Mr. Gu Li, the Gang Leader has been waiting inside for a long time." Arriving here, Ghost saw two Black Sand Gang members greeting at the door.

"Lead the way ahead." Ghost said flatly, the two opened the iron door, unexpectedly finding the Black Sand Gang’s base at the city center of East Sea. However, this basement usually doesn’t have people visiting, probably contracted long-term by Lang.

"Haha, Mr. Gu Li finally arrived, I’ve been eagerly awaiting." Lang quickly came up, trying to shake hands with Ghost, but he was devoid of interest, directly passing by Lang to open the door, Gu Xin sitting on a chair, while the table was filled with gourmet food, but Gu Xin had no mood to taste and kept snorting.

"Gu Xin, are you alright?" Gu Li immediately approached upon seeing her.

"Great, I knew you would come to rescue me."
