Chapter 452: Discussing Countermeasures

Most importantly, there was no substantial evidence that could link Kang Wan’s disappearance to other clues. From the surveillance video that Luo Nan and Li Xiao had sent over, Kang Wan had indeed left the hotel on her own accord. There was not a single suspicious person beside her.

At this moment, Kang Jian was moved by Kang Ting’s words. Anger welled up in his heart. He frowned and clenched his fists tightly. He shouted angrily, “In that case, this matter must have been done by the Huo family. Is it not enough that they have been suppressing and acquiring the Kang family’s business recently? Now, Huo Xuan actually schemed against my daughter. No, I definitely can’t tolerate this! I must make him hand over Wan’er!”

After saying this, before Cheng Tang and Kang Ting could say anything, Kang Jian turned around and walked towards the door. From his posture, it seemed like he was going to end things with the Huo family today.

Cheng Tang quickly raised her hand and asked the subordinate beside her to stop Kang Jian. She took two steps forward and patted the man’s shoulder. She instructed in a low voice, “Brother-in-law, the matter hasn’t been investigated thoroughly. We don’t have any evidence to prove that the Huo family was involved in Wan’er’s disappearance. If we act rashly, we will only alert the enemy. If Wan’er is really in their hands, aren’t you ignoring the girl’s safety?”

At this moment, Cheng Tang had stopped Kang Jian partly for her own selfish reasons. After the incident with Lin Yuan last time, more than half of the Kang family’s businesses had been jointly suppressed by the Huo family and the Xu family. The rest had barely been saved with the help of the Cheng family and the other influential families in Beijing who were on good terms with them.

In the current situation, if they really went head-on against the Huo family, and the Kang family fell, the incident would probably shake the Cheng family’s foundation. At that time, her status in front of the old master would definitely plummet!

Seeing that Cheng Tang had sent someone to stop him, Kang Jian struggled free from their restraints. As he walked towards the door, he said loudly, “Cheng Tang, don’t let anyone stop me. Wan’er isn’t your child and your heart doesn’t ache for her. You are still speaking up for the Huo family now. You are afraid of the Huo family but I’m not. I must make that kid called Huo Xuan give me an explanation today!”

Upon hearing this, Cheng Tang understood that Kang Jian was stubborn and would probably not be able to persuade him. Her expression darkened, and she put on a cold expression. She said indifferently, “Brother-in-law, since you say so, don’t blame me for not reminding you. The Kang family has fallen now, and all of your business now depends largely on the help of the Cheng family. Without my permission, no one in the Kang family is allowed to have any conflict with the Huo family. Otherwise, I will definitely ask the old master to withdraw all the funds the Cheng family has invested in the Kang family and cut off your capitals!”

“You!” Kang Jian was furious. His fingers trembled as he pointed at Cheng Tang and kept patting his chest to catch his breath.

Seeing this scene, as it concerned the Kang family’s interests, Kang Ting could not help but stand up from his high seat and walk down. He came to Cheng Tang and lowered his eyes slightly as he said kindly, “Tang’er, no matter what, we are in-laws. We can’t be rash in making decisions. It’s Second Brother’s fault. I apologize to you on behalf of the Kang family. Don’t take it to heart. Let’s work hard to look for Wan’er. Maybe there will be news tomorrow?”

After saying this, Cheng Tang looked up and glanced at Kang Ting coldly. She turned her head and looked at Kang Jian. She said calmly, “Investigate this matter for two more days. If there’s still no useful news in two days, arrange for someone to organize a funeral for her. Southeast Asia has been very chaotic recently. If a person has been missing for so many days, she probably won’t be able to return!”

Kang Jian did not expect Cheng Tang to say that. He held his anger in his chest and could not take it down. He was so angry that he coughed twice and hurriedly pinched his waist as he cursed, “Wow, Cheng Tang. I didn’t expect you to be such a cold-blooded and heartless person. No matter what, Wan’er is your sister’s flesh and blood. How can you organize a funeral for her before you have confirmed her exact situation! You’re cursing her!”
