After Cheng Xiangyun told him the details, she immediately begged for his help.
“Something must have happened to Ding Mi. Sir Chen, I beg of you to please find her.”
But Nan Xing was the first to speak; he exclaimed loudly, “Brother, this sounds right. Ding Mi might have had gotten
into trouble.”
“Mr. Nan Xing, what is it that sounds right?” Jiang Zhe asked him softly.
“It is very obvious that Ding Mi has been held hostage!” Nan Xing answered firmly.
After Nan Xing finished his sentence, he looked at Nan Chen, who had an expressionless poker face.
Although Nan Chen remained silent, he was obviously aware of what he should do.
He was considering what he should do next.
“How is that so?” Jiang Zhe questioned him again.
Jiang Zhe was a smart individual who had his own judgements. But in order to show some respect to Fourth Young
Master, he had to pretend that he was ignorant and seek for answers from him.
“Ding Mi received a phone call which requested for Cheng Xiangyun to get off the car so that she could take over
the driver seat. It is rather obvious that the call was made by the perpetrator and Ding Mi had to follow what she
was being told to do.” Nan Xing said.
Nan Chen frowned. Does he have to explain such a straightforward question? Is this now a competition of stupidity?
“What's next?” Jiang Zhe questioned again.
“Then, Cheng Xiangyun's car was parked at the carpark but Ding Mi was nowhere in sight. This indicates that she
had left the vicinity in another car. We should check on the surveillance cameras installed near the carpark to look
out for any suspicious vehicles leaving the carpark around that time. Although there was nothing being captured by
the cameras installed in the carpark, there should be cameras installed at the exit.” Nan Xing said.
“What a great and logical conclusion from Mr. Nan Xing!” Jiang Zhe immediately started to kiss up to him.
“Okay.” Nan Chen had enough of this.
Everyone shut their mouths immediately.
“Did I say something wrong?” Nan Xing asked.
“I already knew about everything you said.” Nan Chen replied.
He then gave Jiang Zhe a cold stare, making him feel nervous. Nan Chen could see through his intentions of trying
to kiss up to Fourth Young Master.

“Get the car.” Nan Chen told Jiang Zhe.
“Yes, the driver is on stand-by.” Jiang Zhe immediately responded.
“I do not need a driver. I need a sport utility vehicle for me to drive.” Nan Chen said.
“Sport utility vehicle for long distance travelling?” Jiang Zhe responded instantly as he knew what Nan Chen was
thinking.
“She should have left Flower City long ago. When the police have any clues, we will set off immediately.” As soon as
Nan Chen finished his sentence, he stood up and started to get ready to leave.
As the head of the business empire, he had to make the necessary arrangements before he could leave.
“Brother, how did you know that she has already left Flower City?” Nan Xing started to pester Nan Chen for an
answer.
“If you were the one who's holding her hostage, would you keep her in Flower City?” Nan Chen threw the question
back at him.
“That's true; I would leave as far away as possible.” Nan Xing replied.
Half an hour later, there was news from the police.
They managed to locate the car that Ding Mi drove. After she left the expressway, she had a switch of cars.
The exit of the expressway had a camera which clearly captured the car that Ning Ran was driving. After the
picture was processed, it was confirmed that the driver of the car was Ning Ran herself.
Upon further investigations, Ning Ran's presence was proved to be in the service area.
When Ning Ran was refueling her car at the service station, she deliberately turned her head around to look into
the camera for up to ten seconds.
“Let's go.” Nan Chen said.
The security team of ten from the Nan family had assembled and split themselves up into three sport utility cars
and were ready to set off anytime.
Nan Chen had a Land Rover to himself as he insisted on driving on his own. However, he did not explain the reason
behind his persistence.
Nan Xing was about to get onto the car but was stopped by Nan Chen, “You will stay behind.”
Nan Xing was dissatisfied, “Brother, it is my woman and my children in danger now. Why are you not letting me go
with you?”
Nan Chen did not want to explain but Nan Xing held onto the door and refused to let it go, “Brother, I have to go
with you.”
Nan Chen frowned.
“You will stay behind to back me up.” Nan Chen said.
“What for? You expect me to stay behind and feel all anxious while all of you go out and look for them?” Nan Xing
shouted.
“Only one of us can go. The other has to stay behind.” Nan Chen said.
“Even if so, I will be the one going. You will stay behind to back me up.” Nan Xing said.
“Do you know which direction to give chase?” Nan Chen questioned him.
Nan Xing was taken aback. Indeed, he did not know.
Although the police gave them a direction of where the car was heading towards, there could be crossroads along
the way and they could have even switched cars. How would he know where to give chase?
“Do you then know?” Nan Xing questioned him curiously.
“Of course.” Nan Chen said.
Nan Chen questioned him again, “After you have caught up with them, do you know what's the next step to take?”
“Make a police report, isn't that straightforward?” Nan Xing asked.
“If that was possible, she would have done so long ago. The perpetrator could have used the children to blackmail
her since they were not with her in the car. Now that we cannot make a police report, what do you intend to do?”
Nan Chen questioned him again.
Nan Xing shook his head as he had no idea how to deal with this.
“We do not have a clear picture of the entire situation. It is necessary for us to handle any unexpected events. You
do not have the ability to do so if you were the one taking charge.” Nan Chen came up with a conclusion.
Nan Xing was unconvinced, yet he had no choice but to obey Nan Chen as he was speaking the truth.
Despite them having an identical appearance, the differences in their abilities were huge.
Nan Chen was a born leader, full of charisma, adaptability and limitless capabilities.
Although Nan Xing's capabilities were not too far off from that of Nan Chen's, there was just something that was
lacking from him that resulted in a difference between Nan Chen and him.
“So what can I do?” Nan Xing asked.
“Wait for my updates. If I need anything, be sure to back me up with the necessary resources.” Nan Chen said.
“Alright then. Thank you, Brother.” Nan Xing replied.
Nan Chen stretched his hand out to give Nan Xing a pat on his shoulder. With that, he got onto the car.
Nan Xing stood there to send them off, his face full of disappointment as he watched the cars leave.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Sir Chen, this is the map for the direction that we are heading towards. There are three provinces that we can get
to from there. Please take a look.” The head of the security team of the Nan Family said.
He used to be a mercenary in another country and was apparently a terrific fighter who could take ten enemies
down, unarmed.
Despite him being over forty years of age, his muscles were well toned, evident of his fighting abilities.
Nan Chen received the map, and started to analyze it in detail.
Out of the three provinces that could be reached by travelling in this direction, there was only one of it that leads
out of the country.
It must be this province.
But there was more than one district that could connect to the international border. Which direction should they
give chase in?
If they headed for the wrong direction, they would only get farther away from their target.
Before the cops were able to provide them with any reliable intel, they had to plan first.
If the police were not able to provide them with any clues, they had to go ahead and give chase based on their own
judgment although there would be some risks.
Nan Chen frowned once again.
Qiao Zhan did not dare utter a single word as he knew that Nan Chen was deep in thought.
However Nan Chen wanted to hear his opinions, “What do you think?”
Qiao Zhan was an expert in this field and it was necessary to heed his advice.
“Is Sir Chen considering whether they would leave the country?” Qiao Zhan questioned.
“Yes.”
“If that is the case, there is a greater possibility of them heading towards the Y province as there are a number of
borders over there which are rather long and it should be much easier to get past them.” Qiao Zhan said.
Nan Chen nodded as that was what was in his mind too.
“But here comes another problem. As the border was rather long, which was the exact path that they crossed?”
Qiao Zhan said.
Nan Chen did not respond, hinting him to continue speaking.
“I think that there is a higher possibility of them heading for South Valley, which is covered in dense forests.
However it could mean more danger as there were a number of armed conflicts over there recently.”
“This is the place.” Nan Chen said.
