Chapter 1276 Tears are falling like rain
At this time, Cheng Yunchuan woke up. He saw Jiang Mubai standing by the window with a pale face and eyes full of fear and anxiety. He immediately stood up and walked to her side, holding her tightly in his arms.
"What's wrong, Mu Bai? Did you have a nightmare?" Cheng Yunchuan asked gently.
Jiang Mubai leaned in Cheng Yunchuan's arms, feeling the warmth and sense of security coming from him, and tears couldn't stop flowing.
"Yunchuan, I'm uneasy."
"Don't be afraid, Mu Bai, I'm here." Cheng Yunchuan patted her back gently and comforted her.
Jiang Mubai told Cheng Yunchuan what had just happened, including the mysterious phone call and the terrible deal proposed by the other party.
After hearing this, Cheng Yunchuan's face became serious. He knew that this matter was of no trivial importance.
"Mu Bai, don't worry, I will protect you. No matter who it is, no one can hurt you." Cheng Yunchuan said with a firm look in his eyes.
"But they want me to kill you." Jiang Mubai's voice trembled, full of fear and helplessness.
Cheng Yunchuan hugged Jiang Mubai tightly and whispered in her ear: "No, Mubai, I won't let you kill me. I will find the real murderer and clear your name."
"But..." Jiang Mubai wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Cheng Yunchuan.
"No buts, Mu Bai, believe me, I will handle everything." Cheng Yunchuan's tone was unquestionable.
Jiang Mubai raised her head and looked at Cheng Yunchuan's determined eyes. Her heart gradually calmed down. She knew that as long as Cheng Yunchuan was there, she had nothing to fear.
In the next few days, Cheng Yunchuan secretly investigated the source of the mysterious phone call and strengthened the protection of Jiang Mubai.
He sent someone to protect Jiang Mubai 24 hours a day to ensure her safety.
At the same time, he also used his connections to investigate Ren Xueer's interpersonal relationships before her death, hoping to find some clues.
However, things did not go as smoothly as expected.
That mysterious phone call seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth and never appeared again.
And Ren Xueer’s death remains a mystery.
The police still haven't found any valuable clues, and Jiang Mubai is still the biggest suspect.
As time went by, the pressure from public opinion grew greater and greater, and Jiang Mubai was almost on the verge of collapse.
She lived in fear and anxiety every day, afraid to go out, see people, or even answer the phone.
She felt like she was trapped in a giant cage from which she could not escape.
Cheng Yunchuan saw it and felt pain in his heart.
He knew that he had to find the real murderer as soon as possible and clear Jiang Mubai's name, otherwise, she would be crushed sooner or later.
One night, Cheng Yunchuan received a mysterious call.
"Mr. Cheng, I know who killed Ren Xueer." A strange voice came from the other end of the phone.
Cheng Yunchuan was startled and immediately asked, "Who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I know the truth. If you want to know the truth, come to XXX location alone." said the voice.
"What exactly do you want to do?" Cheng Yunchuan asked vigilantly.
"I want to make you a deal, a deal you can't refuse," the voice said.
Cheng Yunchuan hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed to the other party's request.
He wanted to see what the other party was up to.
The next night, Cheng Yunchuan arrived at XXX location as agreed.
This is an abandoned factory, surrounded by desolate and eerie surroundings.
As soon as Cheng Yunchuan walked into the factory, he heard a strange noise behind him.
He turned around suddenly and saw a dark shadow rushing towards him.
The black shadow was so fast that Cheng Yunchuan barely had time to react before being knocked to the ground.
A sharp pain came from the back of his head, Cheng Yunchuan's eyes went dark, and he lost consciousness.
After an unknown amount of time, Cheng Yunchuan slowly woke up.
He found himself tied to a chair with his hands and feet tied tightly.
It was pitch black all around, with only a dim light illuminating a small space.
"Are you awake?" A cold voice came from the darkness.
Cheng Yunchuan narrowed his eyes and tried hard to see the person who was speaking, but found that the other person was hiding in the shadows and his face could not be seen clearly.
"Who are you?" Cheng Yunchuan asked coldly.
"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I know what you want to know," said the voice.
"What about Ren Xueer?" Cheng Yunchuan asked.
The voice said, "Yes, I know who killed her."
Cheng Yunchuan was startled and asked, "Who is it?"
The voice said with a hint of joking, "Want to know? Then it depends on whether you have the ability to find out."
As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Yunchuan felt a sharp pain coming from his abdomen.
He looked down and saw a dagger had pierced deeply into his abdomen.
Blood slowly flowed down the blade of the dagger, staining Cheng Yunchuan's clothes red.
Cheng Yunchuan gritted his teeth, endured the severe pain and said: "What on earth do you want to do?"
"I just want you to understand one thing. For some things, the more you know, the faster you die." said the voice.
After saying that, the voice disappeared into the darkness, as if it had never appeared.
Cheng Yunchuan felt his consciousness becoming increasingly blurred, and he knew that he was about to die.
"Mubai." Cheng Yunchuan used up his last bit of strength and whispered Jiang Mubai's name softly.
At the same time, Jiang Mubai was anxiously waiting for news from Cheng Yunchuan.
She had been waiting for a long time, but still hadn't received a call from Cheng Yunchuan.
She had a bad feeling in her heart that something was going to happen.
Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore and called Cheng Yunchuan.
However, a cold, robotic female voice came from the other end of the line: "Sorry, the number you dialed is turned off."
Jiang Mubai's heart sank suddenly. She knew that something had happened.
She immediately contacted Cheng Yunchuan's assistant and learned that Cheng Yunchuan had never returned since he went out last night.
Jiang Mubai could no longer sit still. She immediately called the police and mobilized all her strength to find Cheng Yunchuan's whereabouts.
However, everything is in vain.
Cheng Yunchuan seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth, disappearing without a trace.
Jiang Mubai was almost on the verge of collapse. She didn't know what had happened to Cheng Yunchuan, nor did she know whether he was still alive.
She lived in fear and despair every day, and her days felt like years.
Just when Jiang Mubai was about to despair, she received an anonymous email.
There was only one photo in the email, which showed Cheng Yunchuan tied to a chair.
His body was covered with scars and his face was covered in blood, and he looked like he was dying.
When Jiang Mubai saw this photo, he burst into tears.
She knew that Cheng Yunchuan was still alive, but he must be in danger now.
She must find him as soon as possible and rescue him.
The email also included a message: "If you want to save him, come to XXX location alone."
