Chapter 1133 He Xue Was Locked Up

“Wait.”

Seeing that He Xue was in a hurry to leave, Fang Qiu suddenly called out.

“What’s wrong?”

He Xue stopped and turned around.

“I’m still worried about you.”

Fang Qiu shook his head and said, “I’ll leave you another phone number.”

With this, he walked to the desk, picked up the paper and pen, and wrote down Xu Miaolin’s phone number. Then he turned around, walked to the door, and handed it to He Xue.

“This is my teacher’s number. If something serious happens and you’re in urgent need of a good doctor, call this number immediately. My teacher is in the capital, and he will get there as soon as possible,” Fang Qiu said.

“Thank you.”

He Xue put away the note, smiled at Fang Qiu, and then turned to leave.

“There’s something wrong with this little lady.”

Watching her leave in a hurry, Fang Qiu frowned slightly, and a faint trace of worry emerged on his face.

Before going to Africo, he felt that something was wrong with He Xue. After coming back this time, he found that she seemed to be hiding something from him.

The most important thing was…

He Xue went to the capital the day before yesterday, but she somehow appeared here this morning. She must have come back in the middle of the night and didn’t have a good rest. When Fang Qiu saw her this morning, he noticed her eyes were slightly puffy and bloodshot. It seemed that she had cried.

“She came back crying in the middle of the night?”

It’s hard to believe she was fine. In addition, the call she received just now made him even more suspicious.

Fang Qiu had thoroughly investigated her background before he hired her.

Thus, he knew her very well.

He Xue was a member of the He family in the capital, where they ran a well-known family business. Their business had been doing very well.

Before He Xue left, she told him that her grandfather was seriously ill.

Although Fang Qiu felt something was wrong here, it was not convenient for him to intervene personally. After all, it was He Xue’s family affair, so he didn’t question her closely.

Why did Fang Qiu feel that there was something fishy? It was because He Xue refused his kind offer. If her grandfather was really seriously ill, Fang Qiu believed that she would take the initiative to ask him for help, even if he didn’t offer to go with her.

However, He Xue didn’t do that.

On the contrary, she wanted to go to the capital to confirm it before calling him.

All these abnormal reactions told Fang Qiu that He Xue was in trouble.

“I hope it’s not a big deal.”

Fang Qiu sighed softly.

Since He Xue didn’t want to tell him, he could only wait and see.

At 11 o’clock in the morning, a taxi drove over quickly and stopped before a very spacious quadrangle courtyard surrounded by luxurious walls and pavements.

“Click!”

He Xue opened the car door and rushed into the courtyard as soon as she got out of the car.

After entering the gate, she saw clearly that the principal room in the courtyard was packed with people pacing back and forth anxiously.

Seeing this, she couldn’t help but speed up and dashed into the room.

“Where is grandpa? How is he?”

As soon as she entered the door, He Xue asked.

Unexpectedly, hardly had her voice faded away when the crowd gathered in the room immediately parted before her. Looking through the gap, He Xue saw her grandfather sitting on a wooden chair with a dragon head walking stick in his hands: he was staring at her coldly.

“He-he…”

Seeing this scene, He Xue couldn’t help sneering at herself and said, “I believed grandpa would never lie to me, so I came back. I didn’t expect that I was being fooled.”

Everyone in the room burst out laughing.

She was right.

He Xue had been deceived.

This was a trap they had set up for her.

They faked the urgent phone call and their anxious pacing. In fact, what worried them most was whether He Xue would come back or not.

If she didn’t return today, they would send people directly to Beijiang to get her back.

It seemed that it had not been necessary at all.

He Xue was back, finally

“Xue.”

Looking at He Xue from the wooden chair he was sitting on, her grandpa said, “Since you are back, have a good rest for a few days. I know how filial you are, but I prefer you to do something more appropriate and make your due contribution to our family.”

“Due contribution?”‘

He Xue, overwhelmed by a fit of depression, said with a cold smile. “How much contribution do I owe you? My life belongs only to me. What makes you think you have the right to arrange my life? Who the hell are you to use my marriage as a bargaining chip? If I have to accept such a fate as a member of He family, then I will leave!”

“How dare you!”

The old man roared, stood up, and angrily rebuked her, “Blood is thicker than water. How can you give up so easily?”

“My parents gave me life. They have never forced me to get married. What right do you have?”

He Xue roared.

Her grandpa was startled!

The others in the room were also stunned.

“I won’t come back again. No matter what happens, I will never come back!” He Xue said furiously.

Then she turned around to leave.

But as soon as she turned around…

She saw more than a dozen bodyguards standing in the courtyard, which was empty a moment ago.

“Get out of my way!”

Without any hesitation, He Xue stepped forward to attack them.

“So lame.”

A voice suddenly sounded and a middle-aged man walked out of the guest room located on the side, his eyes fixed on He Xue. With a smile, he moved and rushed straight up. In a few moves, he subdued her.

He Xue, who could confront seven or eight strong men with ease, felt very powerless when facing this person. Before she could step up to fight, he had brought her under control.

If Fang Qiu was here, he could tell at a glance that the middle-aged man was a Martial Superior!

“As I said, since you’ve come back, just stay here.”

With the support of his dragon head cane, the elder came out of the main room and said to He Xue.

“He-he.”

He Xue laughed grimly and said, “We’re no longer living in conservative old times. Even if you force me to get married, so what? If there is a chance, I will stir up a tempest in the whole family. I’d like to see how you’ll deal with the mess then!”

“Humph.”

Before the elder could speak, Second Uncle, dressed to the nines and sporting a light stubble, immediately came out of the crowd and said, “Take her phone away and keep watch over her.”

“This time, even if you have wings, you could hardly fly away!”

In no time, He Xue was taken to the guest room located at the side. Both its windows and doors were locked. They must have prepared this room for her in advance.

Moreover, there were people standing guard outside the door. The room was like a prison, and there was no way to escape.

Trapped inside, He Xue felt utterly desperate.

But without a phone, she could do nothing about her situation.

In Beijiang, Fang Qiu had been waiting in the office for an entire day, but he received no call from He Xue, which made him even more unsettled.

“Didn’t she say that her grandpa was seriously ill?

“Why hasn’t she called me yet?”

It had been a long time since she left. Fang Qiu took out his phone and dialed He Xue’s number.

“Sorry, the subscriber you’re calling is not available! Please try again later.”

On the other end of the phone came the automated voice.

“Hum?”

Fang Qiu frowned instantly.

“Not available?

“How could she turn off her phone in such an urgent situation?

“Besides, she wouldn’t turn off her phone, even at night, for she was always ready to deal with any emergency situation. Everything about her today seems so abnormal. Why?”

Moreover, he recalled the doubts he had in the morning.

The concerns he had were vastly amplified.

Fang Qiu didn’t waste any more time thinking about this.

He called Li Ji directly.

“Hello?”

Li Ji answered the phone.

“Please do me a favor. It’s a personal matter.”

Fang Qiu continued, “Please help me check on He Xue’s family background and address. Do it as fast as you can.”

“Okay.”

Li Ji didn’t ask for the reason. He agreed and hung up the phone.

He knew Fang Qiu very well and believed in him. As a talent of excellent character, Fang Qiu had won the trust of his country. Therefore, he didn’t need to inquire about or investigate any of Fang Qiu’s requests.

Five minutes later, Li Ji sent all the information he found to Fang Qiu’s phone through a text message.

He Xue was the daughter of the eldest son of the He family in the capital.

The He family had a quadrangle courtyard in Lakeside Garden. The old master of He family had been living there all year round, and all the He family members would visit him regularly.

Although the information was basic, it was enough.

“Lakeside Garden?”

When the message arrived, Fang Qiu was already on his way to the airport.

By the time he boarded the plane, it was already nine o’clock in the evening.

It was a three-hour flight.

It was not until early in the morning that Fang Qiu finally landed at the airport in the capital.

He soon left the airport.

Fang Qiu went straight to Lakeside Garden, a well-known prosperous residential district in the capital.

Everything in this wealthy district could be built according to the owners’ wishes. That was why there were many villas and quadrangle courtyards.

Using the information given by Li Ji, he soon located the He family’s quadrangle courtyard.

He arrived at the courtyard’s gate.

He activated his Divine Consciousness.

“Oh?”

In the quadrangle courtyard, Fang Qiu surprisedly found several martial arts practitioners and a sixth-class Martial Superior!

“Sure enough, something is going on with her.”

Fang Qiu murmured to himself and used his Divine Consciousness to search carefully for He Xue.

Soon, he sensed her aura.

At the foot of the snow-capped mountain, he had taught He Xue a few moves. Thus, a faint remaining aura of energy still lingered on her. It would be easy for him to find her.

“Is she locked up?”

With an idea popping up in his mind, Fang Qiu swiftly leaped up and quietly came to the roof above He Xue’s room. Then, Fang Qiu, using the Qi of Heaven and Earth method, quietly moved away some tiles on the roof, undetected. Then there appeared a big hole above the room, and he jumped in.

“Ahhhhh…”

As he jumped down from the roof out of the blue, He Xue, her eyes still red, literally jumped out of her skin!

Fortunately, before she cried out in fear, Fang Qiu had already covered her mouth with his hand.

“Shh.”

After gesturing for He Xue not to shout, Fang Qiu slowly put down his hand.

“Why are you here?”

Seeing that it was Fang Qiu, He Xue immediately quieted down and then asked in a low voice which was filled with surprise.

“What’s going on with you?” Fang Qiu asked her instead.

“It’s a long story. Let’s leave here first. Can you take me away?”

He Xue asked.

“Sure.”

Fang Qiu grabbed He Xue around her waist, stood on tiptoe and jumped out of the hole on the roof. With a slight flick of his right hand, the tiles which were wrapped with energy immediately spread over the roof and returned to their original positions respectively.
