275: Not Too Surprised

Not Too Surprised

"Organization? What organization?" Ling Tianya vaguely heard that word. The first thing that crossed her mind was a terrorist organization.0

During the few years she was abroad, she had heard news about terrorist attacks from time to time, but there hadn't been similar incidents in China.

Suddenly, the low volume chatter outside stopped. There was the sound of footsteps, followed by someone yelling, "Mr. Bai!" 

"Mr. Bai?" Ling Tianya's eyebrows tightened as she remembered someone.

"Is the person in the case?" The voice sounded deep and familiar.

"Yes." The scarred man replied.

"Was there any problem?"

The scarred man paused, then shook his head firmly, "No."

"Open the case. Bring the person over."

The case was opened, and Ling Tianya finally saw light again. The brightness of the light made her eyes water profusely because she'd been in the dark so long.

Not even given the chance to readjust, Ling Tianya was dragged out of the case, her legs untied, and violently led toward somewhere unknown.

Ling Tianya's eyes finally adjusted to the light and realized that she was in an abandoned bar. She finally saw clearly that her kidnappers were indeed the new workers from the props department whom she met a few days before.

The scarred man glanced at Ling Tianya and was surprised by how calm she appeared to be. Under normal circumstance, wouldn't a woman be extremely emotional, kicking and screaming when she was kidnapped? She did not seem to have any emotional reaction, other than the few tears she shed because she was blinded by the light.

It was not normal!

The woman's calm expression looked so tranquil, as if she was not surprised at all by what had happened.

The scarred man gathered his wandering thoughts and hastened his steps, bringing Ling Tianya to a room on the second floor of the abandoned bar.

Once inside, Ling Tianya was tied to a chair. When she lifted her head, she saw a man sitting on the sofa not far away from her. The man was dressed in a pressed suit and was wearing a pair of golden wired glasses. He was also holding a wine glass in his hand, looking rather poised. 

That man turned out to be an old acquaintance of Ling Tianya's, the attorney who had served the Ling Family for many years, Mr. Bai.

Mr. Bai had always looked cultured and capable, but that day, there was an additional darkness about him. He extended his finger, pointing at the tape over Ling Tianya's mouth, and said to the scarred man, "Get it off."

Obediently, the scarred man yanked off the tape.

Psss! The movement was so rough that the small hairs around Ling Tianya's mouth were ripped off, hurting her quite a bit.

"Long time no see, Miss Ling." Mr. Bai said slowly.

Ling Tianya blinked at him. "Not that long. We just saw each other at the police station, for Qu Wan's daughter."

Mr. Bai tightened his brows and knew that Ling Tianya was referring to the time that Huang Yuqing was trying to set her up in the hotel. Consequently, Ling Tianya made a counter attack, not only recording the conversations between the mother and daughter, but also got Huang Yuqing arrested. 

That time, if it was not him who took possession of the cell phone with all the recordings, Qu Wan might have still been in trouble.　　

Just a few days ago, Ling Tao was asking him about the cell phone, which meant that he no longer trusted Qu Wan. It was urgent that they got rid of Ling Tianya as soon as possible.

But…

"You don't look surprised at all to see me." Mr. Bai said in a chilling voice.

Ling Tianya smiled as she tried to wiggle her wrists which were being tied uncomfortably. "No, not too surprised."
