Taking advantage of the beauty being poor, fooling her into being my girlfriend-Chapter 862 - - Big Trouble!
Chapter 862 -862: Big Trouble!
“`
This morning, An Nuonuo unusually skipped breakfast, yet felt full.
Moreover, her throat felt a bit uncomfortable.
Could it have been something spicy she ate last night?
Unknown.
In the afternoon, Jiang Xu had made a trip to the office.
It had been over two months since he had shown up, so his appearance was necessary.
An Nuonuo was home alone watching TV.
As she watched, she started feeling sleepy.
She now needed over fifteen hours of sleep a day.

Just as she was about to turn off the projector, her phone rang.
Chu Youwei sent a voice message: “Nuonuo, there’s a new dessert shop near headquarters, do you want to join me?”
I’ve booked a room, it’s on the second floor near the stairs on the left.
When her cousin invited her, naturally, she would go.
An Nuonuo replied, then threw on a coat and headed to the destination under the escort of her bodyguards.
Entering the private room, Chu Youwei had not yet arrived.
The bodyguards stood guard outside.
The waiter came in, bowed slightly: “Miss, please try our signature dessert.”
“Sure,” An Nuonuo nodded.
The waiter bowed out, also closing the door behind him.
An Nuonuo ate a few bites of the dessert, then sent Chu Youwei another voice message: “Cousin, when are you coming?”
Chu Youwei replied quickly: “Where?”
An Nuonuo’s face changed slightly, and she played the previous voice message again.
She realized it wasn’t Chu Youwei’s voice but a synthetic one.
If listened to carefully, one could notice minor differences.
Someone had hacked into Chu Youwei’s WeChat and sent her a message luring her out!
Instinctively, An Nuonuo tried to message Jiang Xu, only to find suddenly there was no signal.
——————
After Jiang Xu arrived at the headquarters, he dealt with some accumulated work.
Time quickly passed, more than an hour.
“Dong dong dong…”
The urgent knocking sound erupted.
Before Jiang Xu could respond, his office door was pushed open.
Chu Youwei rushed in holding her phone, “Jiang Xu, I have a suspicion, can you check…”
Two minutes later, Jiang Xu found a virus in Chu Youwei’s phone.
He also detected the synthetic voice that had tricked An Nuonuo into going out.
Instantly, Jiang Xu felt as if his whole head was going to explode.
His eyes were filled with a terrifying blood-red color.
He ran madly toward the elevator,
while frantically calling Liu Dahai on the phone, screaming at the top of his lungs, “Immediately, right now, make all personnel from the intelligence agency drop everything, fully search for Nuonuo, she’s been taken!”
A terrifyingly violent aura emanated from him.
The normally polite and elegant demeanor was gone, replaced by a mad frenzy as if wanting to destroy everything in the world.
An Nuonuo was his sore point, touch her and die!
Chu Youwei stood in Jiang Xu’s office, her face deathly pale.
Although this incident had nothing to do with her, if something really happened to An Nuonuo, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life.
She quickly called Jiang Xiaoyan and rapidly explained the situation.
Jiang Xiaoyan’s voice was calm but firm: “Bring the phone and come to me.”
Chu Youwei dashed downstairs.
When Jiang Xu arrived at the newly opened dessert shop, he indeed found that An Nuonuo was gone.

The bodyguard discovered a secret passage in the private room, leading to the underground parking lot.
The surveillance footage was accessed, only to find that all records during that period had already been deleted.
Jiang Xu bit his lip hard, the intense pain sobering him from his rage and helping him maintain his composure.
At such a time, acting impulsively could very likely delay matters!
He pondered the entire sequence of events meticulously.
From the occurrence of the incident, he had arrived within half an hour.
In such a short span, unless the kidnappers had used a helicopter, it was absolutely impossible for them to have left Magic City.
Seal off the entire Magic City!
This thought flashed through Jiang Xu’s mind, and then he acted on it.
Soon, a message that shocked the entire network was released.
The wife of Nuomi Group’s Chairman, An Nuonuo, had been kidnapped!
All entry and exit points of Magic City were sealed, and even planes that were about to take off were forced to halt.
At this moment, the vast number of netizens realized that Nuomi Group had grown into a behemoth!
Upon learning of his daughter’s kidnapping, An Feng was like a madman, leveraging all his connections for the search.
Many were discontent.
Your wife gets kidnapped, and you lock down the entire city?
Any similar comment that appeared on platforms owned by Nuomi Group was immediately banned.
Time ticked away slowly.
An hour had passed since the city was sealed.
His subordinates found a clue, but it soon led to a dead end.
The enemy had planned this long ago and had left no trace.
There was only one thing Jiang Xu was sure of: the culprit was still in this city.
Liu Dahai personally led a team along with An Feng’s people, Fu Xinghan’s people, and the officials, beginning a carpet-style search.
Perhaps this search put pressure on the kidnappers.
A mysterious call came for Jiang Xu.
It was very likely from the kidnappers.
His phone had long been equipped with surveillance software.
At the same time, a hundred technicians were on standby in the background.
The moment Jiang Xu pressed the answer button, professional technicians had already begun tracking the origin of the number.
“Hello?” Jiang Xu initiated the conversation.
“Good day, Mr. Jiang.”
An indifferent voice came from the other end of the phone.
Although Jiang Xu’s eyes were bloodshot, like a tiger ready to strike, his voice remained smooth, “Is my wife with you?”
The man laughed, “Yes, the esteemed Madam is visiting my abode.”
“Mr. Jiang can rest assured, I had my female bodyguards invite her all the way, nothing disrespectful towards the esteemed Madam.”
“Of course, the esteemed Madam and the child in her belly haven’t been harmed in the slightest.”
Hearing this, Jiang Xu breathed a slight sigh of relief.
“Speak, what do you want?”
“I’m a bit short on cash recently, I’d like to request Mr. Jiang to bestow something, not much, fifty billion should suffice.”
“No problem,” Jiang Xu agreed without hesitation, “But first, you have to let me video call my wife to ensure she’s truly unharmed.”
The man on the other end of the phone fell silent.
Fearing he might refuse, Jiang Xu added, “I’ve agreed to the fifty billion, you at least need to show the bare minimum of sincerity, right?”
“Alright, then let Mr. Jiang have a look.”
The man hung up the phone, and soon An Nuonuo’s WeChat video call came through.
Jiang Xu hastily accepted.
An Nuonuo’s flawless face appeared on the screen.
Jiang Xu’s heart tightened, as he fought back the urge to cry, “Nuonuo, how are you now? Are you hurt, has anyone maltreated you?”
“No, I’m fine,” An Nuonuo’s voice was gentle, “Brother Xu, don’t worry about me, it’s just that we forgot to turn off the burner under the black chicken and abalone soup at home.”
