Chapter 558: Chapter 558 Action Always Fails

The half-open door was pushed open.

Great Grandfather and Gu Qiaoqiao stood in the doorway.

Regardless, Gu Qingfeng still needed to check on Luo Fan, he couldn’t just leave like that.

After assessing his injuries, Gu Qingfeng was relieved to see that his tendons and bones were unaffected.

Gu Qiaoqiao, however, was very surprised. How did Luo Fan arrive so quickly?

Then she directly asked him.

By this time, the nurse had finished bandaging him and left with the tray.

Now only the three members of the Gu Family and Luo Fan remained.

Luo Fan did not hide anything and candidly explained that he was going to take Qianqian and Xiao Yu for ice cream, then relayed the entire sequence of events after learning of Gu Qianqian’s disappearance.

After all, he might be with Gu Qianqian in the future. So right now, honesty was crucial.

Old Patriarch Gu didn’t think too much of it.

Because he was unaware of the details here.

Gu Qiaoqiao knew, though.

She glared at Luo Fan, her eyes heavy with warning.

Luo Fan, however, just cracked a smile.

A very forthright smile.

He truly regarded Qianqian as a little sister at the moment.

The little girl was adorable, smart, and lively. How could he ever stop caring for her from now on? That was impossible.

However, he would never let today’s events happen again.

He swore it!

After talking for a while, Gu Qingfeng asked Gu Qiaoqiao to take Gu Qianqian home first.

He then sat quietly in the hospital’s lobby, waiting for Gu Cheng to arrive.

He had already called.

His daughter was in the emergency room, he was bound to come.

Sure enough, about twenty minutes later, Gu Cheng rushed over frantically.

But Ning Wanru was nowhere to be seen.

Because at that moment, Ning Wanru was furiously smashing things at home.

A phrase suddenly surfaced in her mind: bad luck.

This year was truly too cursed, nothing was going her way.

Moreover, she couldn’t understand why it seemed like there was an invisible hand in the shadows that slammed her down hard to the ground whenever she tried to do something, as if to ensure she could never rise again.

This time, a plan that should have gone off without a hitch had inexplicably failed.

In the plan, their actions were quick, and the coordination was seamless.

Although they didn’t split into groups, the car and its license plate, although forged, looked exactly like Gu Qiaoqiao’s.

And they drove quickly.

They used this modified car to kidnap Gu Qianqian and then drove directly to the hideout on the outskirts of the city.

Once there, not even an Immortal from the heavens could find Gu Qianqian.

Then, as if nothing happened, they would take another car back to the Imperial Capital.

That car would be modified again by the subordinates at the secret base, turning it into a completely different vehicle.

No one would be the wiser.

Because the Chief’s subordinates included such a skilled workforce.

Those who modified cars were all experts.

All of them at the level of engineers.

The Chief was also paying them high salaries.

And over the years, they had indeed brought him a lot of wealth.

How could they have been caught up with so quickly?

And now, instead of a successful abduction, her granddaughter now lay in the emergency room, life hanging by a thread.

It was said that her lungs and mouth were filled with mud; she was at death’s door.

How did it all end up like this?

Ning Wanru could sit still no longer.

She had Steward Wu drive, discreetly taking several detours and switching cars twice until they had shaken off any tails, and then hastily headed towards Lin Fanpeng’s residence.
