The henchman laughed, "Someone's paying a high price to use our warehouse, who cares what they do with it."
"They're definitely up to no good," the woman in the leather jacket said with a dismissive smile, continuing to count her goods.
After all, no one who came to this warehouse was a good person. Everyone was busy with their own business and didn't want to meddle.
Just as Gu Susu was about to call out a third time, the door was pushed open from the outside.
A man wearing a black jacket and a shiny gold necklace walked in.
Gu Susu's brow immediately furrowed, and she took several steps back. Who else could this be but Qin Tianlang!
"Where is Ai Yiwei? Have her come see me!"
Qin Tianlang grabbed her shoulder with his arm and chuckled, "Does it make a difference who comes to see you, her or me?"
Gu Susu broke free from him, her face filled with disdain, and said, "Of course there's a difference. She said she'd let me see the child, but where is the child? Where is the child?"
"Why are you shouting so loud? The child is next door, sleeping soundly right now."
Upon hearing this, Gu Susu trembled with excitement, wanting nothing more than to push him aside and go next door to find Xiao Xingxing.
However, Qin Tianlang blocked her, teasing, "If you want to see that child, you can. Beg me. Beg me nicely."
"Get out of the way!" Gu Susu knew the child was so close, her anxiety intensified.
Why couldn't she hear any sound from Xiao Xingxing?
Even if she was asleep, her loud shouts just now should have woken Xiao Xingxing.
Either Qin Tianlang was lying to her, or Xiao Xingxing had been drugged with something that made them sleep so deeply they couldn't wake up.
"Oh dear, still not begging me at a time like this," Qin Tianlang said, lifting her chin.
This woman was truly beautiful and captivating, possessing a different kind of beauty each time he looked at her. No wonder even someone as unromantic as Qin Tianyi was completely smitten by her.
"Beg me to be gentle with you," Qin Tianlang said, lowering his head and leaning closer.
Gu Susu had long detested him. His current appearance was increasingly losing the air of a rich young master and becoming more like a disgusting thug.
"Get lost! Let me see the child first!" Gu Susu pushed his fingers away.
His true colors revealed, he pulled her into his arms, "I like your spirit."
From outside the door behind him, a man reminded him, "Young Master Lang, Brother Cheng instructed that no one should touch this woman for now."
"Get lost! Go tell Han Cheng that she and I are old acquaintances, just like he is with my mother," Qin Tianlang retorted angrily.
"But Young Master Lang..."
"Close the door and get lost! If Han Cheng wants to pursue this, let him come find me!"
The follower outside the door could only gently close the door, unsure how to report back to Boss Han.
While he was distracted, Gu Susu forcefully drove her knee up into his chest, striking him hard in a vital spot.
Qin Tianlang let out a pained cry, clutching his groin.
Gu Susu pushed him away and was about to rush out to find the child.
Qin Tianlang gritted his teeth and roared, "You bitch, you hit so hard! I'll kill you today!"
He struggled to stand straight, then tightly embraced her waist, throwing her into a corner of the warehouse and pouncing on her, pinning her down.
Gu Susu was terrified, but she still refused to yield to him, "Don't touch me! You're not human!"
Qin Tianlang sneered, "I was going to be gentle with you, but it seems you don't like gentleness."
As he spoke, he roughly pulled open the collar of her clothes, tearing her top in half.
Gu Susu kicked and struggled desperately, almost kicking him in the vital spot again.
Qin Tianlang, his face contorted with ferocity, kicked her in the stomach and then pinned her down, slapping her several times. "Let's see who can save you today. I'll finish you off!"
Gu Susu immediately felt a sharp pain in her abdomen, her stomach cramping, and she vomited again.
Qin Tianlang felt disgusted. He casually picked up her torn top, wiped her face roughly with it, and then, ignoring everything else, took off his own clothes.
Gu Susu had no strength left. A heavy sensation spread through her abdomen. The child in her womb... the child was lost...
Qin Tianlang lunged at her. Her face was pale as she stared fixedly at him, too weak to even curse.
"Hey, you scumbag, you're still coming? Can't you see she's bleeding?" a cool female voice echoed in the narrow warehouse.
Gu Susu could no longer see the woman's face clearly, only managing to emit a faint sound with all her might, "Save me..."
Qin Tianlang felt his mood ruined and got up, throwing a punch at the woman.
The woman dodged it deftly and walked directly towards Gu Susu, who was on the verge of losing consciousness. She took off her leather jacket and covered Gu Susu with it, then commanded someone outside the door, "Go deal with this scumbag."
"Yes, Miss." Four followers outside the door immediately began to deal with Qin Tianlang.
Gu Susu's face was ashen. One hand pressed hard against her abdomen, the other weakly lifted, trying to grasp the woman in front of her, "Help..."
The cool and stylish woman saw Gu Susu's face and exclaimed in shock, "Gu Susu? It's you! What happened to you? There's so much blood, are you dying?"
Gu Susu used her last ounce of strength to say, "Miscarriage..." and then fainted.
"Are you trying to die? Why are you always like this, woman? First childbirth, now a miscarriage!" But the cool and stylish woman could no longer hear her.
The cool and stylish woman had no choice but to pick Gu Susu up and rush outside, telling her followers, "Quick, someone drive us to the hospital."
All four of them stopped fighting and scrambled to get into the car.
The cool and stylish woman yelled, "Didn't you hear me? I only need one driver. The other three, keep beating this scum until he's incapacitated!"
A quick-witted follower immediately ran to her, "Miss, I'll drive."
The other three looked at Qin Tianlang, who had been beaten to the ground, his face covered in blood, and was unable to move. They didn't know what else to do.
One of them scratched his head and said, "Miss, this guy can't take a beating. He's already incapacitated."
The cool and stylish woman, carrying Gu Susu, ran outside and shouted back at the three, "Crippple his family jewels!"
"Yes, Miss." The three immediately obeyed.
The cool and stylish woman felt Gu Susu was bleeding continuously and feared she would bleed to death. She instructed someone to drive to the hospital as quickly as possible.
...
Qin Tianyi and Su Kangxi searched the park from day to night, and from night to day.
Those called by Qin Tianyi to help search were all exhausted, yet they still hadn't found any sign of Gu Susu.
The next morning, a park cleaner found a mobile phone on a small path leading to the lake.
The phone had run out of battery and was turned off. As soon as Qin Tianyi saw the phone, he recognized it as Gu Susu's.
Upon hearing that the cleaner found it by the lake, some people suspected that Gu Susu might have fallen into the lake or committed suicide by drowning.
However, Qin Tianyi and Su Kangxi did not believe she would commit suicide. It was possible she had accidentally fallen into the lake.
Qin Tianyi wanted people to drain the entire lake, but the park management refused. They also did not agree to their large-scale search for a body on the lake surface, fearing it would scare the park visitors.
