Hurriedly, with trembling hands, she dug out her phone, found Chen Linyun's number and called it.

While she was waiting for the other end to pick up, she ordered Butler Lee who was behind her to go to the picnic site at Chaoyang Park. The park was accessible to all. Aside from knowing that Su Jingjing was the traitor's niece, who was currently with her brother now, she's worrying about the security of the place.

Finally, Chen Linyun picked up. "Hel--"

"Linyun where's Guangxi? Can you see him? Hurry please! His phone is off, I cannot contact him directly." Xue Jinxu asked nervously.

Chen Linyun looked around. "What's going on?"

"Just answer me, where is he?! Give the phone to him now please!" Xue Jinxu was trembling now, and was trying hard not to make a scene. She was still at the conference room. She hurriedly left the room and found a secluded corridor.

"He was just here a moment ago. Perhaps he went to the bathroom. I'll check. I'm walking now. Wenbin, have you seen Guangxi?" Chen Linyun also asked Wenbin who just exited the bathroom.

"No, he's with Jingjing." Mo Wenbin said.

Xue Jinxu heard what Mo Wenbin said in the other line. She panicked and briefed the two. "Listen to me. Bring the phone to loud speaker, but to the least volume, enough for you to both hear." She paused. "Su Jingjing is a traitor. Her uncle betrayed us. You have to help me find my brother now. Please! Please!"

Chen Linyun and Mo Wenbin looked at each other and were both alarmed. They ran in opposite directions. They searched and searched but there was no sign of Xue Guangxi. Soon enough Butler Lee joined them in their search. Butler Lee also brought their own men to search.

Chen Linyun had not ended the call. Xue Jinxu was still on the line. She could monitor the situation. "How is it? Still nothing?"

"Nothing." Chen Linyun answered. He was sweating and panting hard. He paused and caught his breath.

"Perhaps he's not in the park anymore." Xue Jinxu explored the idea.

"I need to go home and use my laptop. I will be more useful that way. I'll hack my way into the surveillance cameras nearby."

"Okay. I'll meet you at the apartment. Butler Lee and his men are there to search. Wenbin could stop too. I'm sorry to trouble you.." A little sob escaped. She was crying.

"Hey, don't cry. And don't drive. I'll just go over to your office. I can use your laptop."

"Alright."

After a few minutes, Chen Linyun arrived at the COO office. "Wenbin insisted on joining the search." He informed her.

"Mmhm.. Here's the laptop."

Chen Linyun took control of the laptop. He was typing at an extremely high speed. He was hacking into the establishments' cameras one by one. At long last they saw sign of Xue Guangxi. He saved a portion of that clip. Every time he saw traces of him, he saved a copy of the clip. He was also tracing the path of where they were going.

In the surveillance camera, the two youngsters were walking away from the park. It seemed that Su Jingjing had successful lured Guangxi farther, out of the park. The radius of the search increased. Surveillance of farther and farther stores was secretly tapped by Chen Linyun. Every clue they had they forward to Butler Lee and Mo Wenbin's team.

Xue Jinxu had already informed her parents. They, too, had deployed more men, and contacted the police. They had connections which made it easier for the police to prioritize for this search. Technically, Xue Guangxi was not yet in the missing or lost list because leeway of twenty four hours had not passed yet. Through their internal connections, the police force also lent some men while ensuring that the whole operation was kept in secret.

Chen Linyun had been working hard. His forehead was crumpled and covered with sweat. His lips were parched and eyes were unblinking but his fingers continued to move. Finally he stopped.

"I can't find any more clues. It stopped here." He pointed out to the last video clip. The place was near a pier. In the clip, Su Jingjing left Guangxi alone in that place. He stood there for a while then perhaps realizing that the girl had left him, he went frantic. He was not familiar with the place. They checked the timestamp in the clip, it was just a couple of minutes ago. They informed the team on the ground.

The search committee arrived at the pier. However, there was still no sign of Xue Guangxi. Chen Linyun tried again but he, too, did not see any signs of him.

Xue Jinxu was standing behind Chen Linyun. She was intently looking at the clips. She said, "What if Guangxi was in one of the ships? Someone, ask the authority in that pier to seek clearance to search inside the ships! Butler Lee!" She called Butler Lee.

The port authorities granted, seeing that the police were with them, although they should perform the search for a short while only because the ships on dock were privately owned.

One by one Butler Lee's team checked on the ships.

The port authority also issued an order to hold all the ships. No ship could sail.

Finally only a few ships left.

And finally in one of the few ships, they finally finally found what, rather who, they were looking for.

It was Xue Guangxi.

He was tied on a rod. He seemed to be unconscious. Mo Wenbin and Butler Lee ran towards the boy and freed him. There were no signs of external wounds, yet he still did not gain consciousness.

The search team and the police performed first aid and called an ambulance.

The police had also taken note of the location where the kid was found. This would lead into further and more detailed investigation. They must know who the owner of the ship was. It was a small ship which could sail internationally. Perhaps their plan was to take Guangxi to a far far away land through the ship. If that was so, then, the intent was really to get rid of Xue Guangxi, the Second Young Master.
