Chapter 1474: Chapter 1464: Storms and Waves

At that moment, the boss walked out from the office building, heading over with a smile on his face. Yet, Jiang Cheng could tell from that smile that there was something hidden behind it.

Hello Mr. Jiang, you can’t leave yet. There’s something that hasn’t been investigated properly. Please come back with me," said the boss while two of his subordinates had already positioned themselves behind Jiang Cheng.

The people Jiang Cheng fought with at the airport have already been released and arrived at the Hua Family, calling from the office: "Hey! Hello, is there someone named Jiang Cheng detained by you? You might want me to take care of him.

Quickly deport this person! He dared to be at our Hua Family and even tried to take action against our people." Apparently, after the conflict with Jiang Cheng, the man was under constant surveillance by the Hua Family, and his every move was monitored. Today, his vanity exposed his fox tail, and he was caught by the surveillance cameras.

While Jiang Cheng was in prison, each day felt like a year to him, with countless eyes watching him. He knew there were people specifically arranged to deal with him.

But who is Jiang Cheng afraid of anyway? The fact that he was kept locked up like this was frustrating, but with Mengmeng’s presence, he dared not make a rash move, fearing it would prevent him from protecting Mengmeng in time.

At that moment, the prison gate screeched suddenly and emitted a piercing noise, causing everyone to turn their heads to see what was happening.

A tall man entered, holding a baton in one hand, with a pistol at his waist and a long gun slung over his back. When he saw the man entering the prison, everyone reacted by crouching down with their heads covered; it was a customary practice that everyone understood.

The man came directly to Jiang Cheng’s side. As he approached, Jiang Cheng calculated how long it would take to put down the baton and how long it would take him to make a move and grab the gun, considering how to escape. Ultimately, he chose to keep a low profile unless absolutely necessary.

Jiang Cheng stood up and walked out. "The man put down the baton and lifted the long gun, pressing it against Jiang Cheng’s lower back. Jiang Cheng didn’t resist and walked ahead.

Leaving the prison gate, they entered an office where there were many personnel. The procedures were handled simply: "Jiang Cheng, you can leave prison now. We hope you will be a good person outside and avoid causing trouble."

Jiang Cheng did not speak but thought to himself, you, an Island District officer, can’t control me. This incident happened suddenly and involved Mengmeng, so I didn’t react. Do you truly think Jiang Cheng is easy to bully?

Outside the prison, Jiang Cheng saw a luxury car parked at the entrance, with a beautiful woman standing beside it, with clear eyebrows, bright eyes, white teeth, and red lips.

Isn’t this Xu Ying? Jiang Cheng approached, and Xu Ying also rushed forward, grabbing Jiang Cheng’s hand, but Jiang Cheng quickly withdrew his hand. Xu Ying wasn’t bothered and said, you’re finally free, quickly get in the car, we shouldn’t stay here long.

Ying is an eminent person in the Hua Mansion, and her father is a big figure. With such a background, personally showing up, the Island District had to give face, though people there were dissatisfied. Ordinary people in the Island District still needed to live, the economy had to develop, and all this couldn’t happen without the Hua Family’s grand estate. That’s why Jiang Cheng could be rescued by Xu Ying.

The car sped down the highway, and Jiang Cheng asked: "Where are we going? If I remember correctly, this is the road to the airport."

Indeed, Jiang Cheng, even sitting in the Island District’s car, you could remember the road so clearly. Yes, this is the road to the Island District’s airport," Xu Ying said with a smile.

Could it be that I’m leaving? Mengmeng is still in the Island District, isn’t she? You must let me down quickly, I need to go back and return to the Hua Mansion with Mengmeng," Jiang Cheng shouted, his voice becoming hoarse.

Xu Ying was very displeased but didn’t lose her temper, she calmly said, this time things are not usual, didn’t you notice? We don’t have the time to fetch Mengmeng, we need to leave here before people in the Island District notice. I will arrange for someone to bring Mengmeng back, don’t be anxious."

In the end, Xu Ying couldn’t persuade Jiang Cheng, and arranged someone to look for Mengmeng and bring her back to the Hua Mansion, while the car continued swiftly down the highway.

Since Xu Ying said so, Jiang Cheng understood the gravity of the situation, so he didn’t say anything further, then closed his eyes to rest and recharge, a habit of his to always keep his energy full.

The car didn’t travel long before suddenly stopping, just as Jiang Cheng was about to ask what was wrong, Xu Ying pulled Jiang Cheng out, saying: "Get out of the car quickly."

Without saying anything, Jiang Cheng swiftly got out and followed Xu Ying into another car, setting off in the opposite direction while the car just took went off to the airport.

I feel flying is not safe, since our movements have already been noticed. I’m switching to the water route; I’ve arranged for a boat. As soon as Xu Ying got in the car, she explained to Jiang Cheng, and Jiang Cheng believed Xu Ying’s reasoning was right and thought the arrangement was thorough, a must-have for Xu Ying’s profession. The car soon reached the pier, and before getting off, Xu Ying and Jiang Cheng both donned cloaks and sunglasses, a way to avoid attention.

The two quickly boarded the ship, which left the harbor, sailing into the deep sea. The ship sped swiftly over the vast sea as Xu Ying arranged personnel to monitor the screen and stationed guards around the ship’s perimeter.

At dawn, Jiang Cheng was in a hotel room just waking up, grooming when he heard a knock on the door. Jiang Cheng thought it was Xu Ying; she was known to act early.

Jiang Cheng wiped his face with a towel and then opened the door. Xu Ying immediately said: "Did you watch the news?"

What news? I haven’t seen it yet, what happened?" Jiang Cheng of course hadn’t watched any, just woke up, hadn’t finished grooming, no time to check the news.

While speaking, Xu Ying came over to turn on the TV, and they both sat down. The TV was broadcasting that a flight from the Island District to the Hua Family crashed into the sea last night due to engine failure, with no survivors among all onboard.

The footage showed many rescue boats on the sea salvaging the plane wreckage. Having seen the news, Jiang Cheng understood what happened, the two exchanged a knowing glance acknowledging that had they boarded the plane yesterday, they would have been fish food today.

Hey, gather a team, launch an attack on the Island’s entire security network system, delay the time by ten minutes. I want them to know that messing with me comes at a cost." Xu Ying’s pretty face turned red with anger, she then dialed a phone number.

Ten minutes later, the Island District’s security network was screen blacked, truly scaring the hell out of them, leading to all radars being fully activated, planes took to the air including helicopters, fighter jets, and reconnaissance aircraft.

After ten minutes, everything returned to normal, all was found to be okay, they finally breathed a sigh of relief, all aircraft ascending safely landed back at the airport, and top personnel promptly convened a meeting to investigate this attack incident.

Jiang Cheng was just about to ask Xu Ying about Mengmeng when Xu Ying entered again, still with a worse facial expression than before, nothing like the triumph post-attack, triggering sentiments of bad news unfolding according to Jiang Cheng.

"Jiang Cheng, I’m really sorry; you need to stay calm. I have something important to tell you."

Go ahead! I’ve been through countless storms; no matter how bad the news is, I can handle it.

When I dispatched people to look for Mengmeng, it turned out that Mengmeng was already gone. Upon investigation, it’s found she was kidnapped by people sent from the Island District mansion.
