A check for seventy million was handed over to Li Sisi on stage.
A genuine seventy million, certified by experts on site.
And Li Sisi didn't hesitate, immediately placing the seventy million check into the Kuofan Charity Fund box. She then signed the donation certificate with the staff.
Yes, without any hesitation.
Xiaofan knew that Li Sisi's action undoubtedly acted as a great advertisement for the charity fund he and Li Kuo had established.
After tonight, this fund is sure to be revealed by the media. The seventy million had Li Sisi advertise, and this seventy million is utilized on the charitable path, which to Xiaofan, is actually a gain.
After the donations concluded, the charity gala reached its finale. Looking at Long Tianjue again, he had long since disappeared from the gala.
Could it be, was that really all left to fate?
To avoid being tracked by paparazzi and media, Xiaofan and Li Sisi left separately after the gala.
Originally donating thirty million, Li Sisi later sold her guzheng for seventy million, totaling one hundred million in donations, which is sure to be tomorrow's headline news.
No need to elaborate on the aftermath.
"Ah damn, this suit is so uncomfortable."
Soon after driving away, Xiaofan took off the suit he was wearing. Casual loose clothing feels much better; shirts, suits, and ties are all restricting and uncomfortable.
'Ring ring ring...' Just as Xiaofan untied his tie, his phone rang.
"Hello, Sister Fei, did you make it home?"
"Brother...quick..."
"Hey, sis, sis? Sister Fei? Kuo, stop the car." Xiaofan suddenly shouted loudly.
With Xiaofan's command, the car screeched to a long stop.
Getting out of the car, Xiaofan immediately swapped driving positions with Li Kuo.
"Track Sister Fei's phone signal. Quickly."
"What's happening?"
"I don't know, but something must've happened."
Xiaofan furrowed his brow tightly; the phone call from Sister Fei had only uttered a few words before descending into chaos, along with the sound of the phone hitting something hard. All of it made Xiaofan extremely uneasy.
It was his own oversight; had he asked Li San to accompany Sisi earlier, this wouldn't have happened. But who knew the adversary would know Li Sisi's route home? What's happened now is unclear, but it's certain that Li Sisi has been targeted.
"Kuo, where..."
"Keep driving, it's just ahead, not far from your home..."
"Hey, Li San, where are you? Come quickly, something might've happened to Sisi." After hanging up, Xiaofan immediately accelerated.
Indeed, at the corner less than a kilometer from his home, he spotted the three cars driven by Liu Peng and his group.
Liu Peng and the bodyguards were all lying on the ground. Feng Feifei was unconscious in the car, her phone dropped beneath the seat. Yet, Li Sisi was nowhere to be seen.
Fortunately, everyone was only knocked out without any life-threatening harm, but for someone to knock out Liu Peng's group and abduct Li Sisi so swiftly, they must've been trained.
No, from the scene, it seemed there wasn't much of a struggle at all; it even seemed Liu Peng's group was knocked out upon contact.
For someone to know precisely how to knock people out, their skills must be remarkable. Unable to worry about much else, Xiaofan placed Feng Feifei into the car and immediately drove off again in pursuit.
Leaving Liu Peng's group lying cold on the ground, Xiaofan could only utter a simple apology.
"Found it, Li Sisi's phone location is just ahead, turn left here, yes, straight ahead..."
Li Sisi has a habit of keeping her phone on her, since a phone is quite a personal item, and her assistant wasn't with her tonight, so naturally, Li Sisi carried it herself.
Getting closer, ever closer. Xiaofan's speed while driving needs no mention, his maniacal drifting finally woke the unconscious Feng Feifei...
"Brother, brother..."
"Sis, you woke up? Are you okay?"
"Zhifan, Sisi, Sisi she..."
"I know, she's just ahead, I'm in pursuit now."
"It was Long Tianjue. Long Tianjue took Sisi away."
"Just as I thought, his audacity is enormous." It goes without saying, Xiaofan had guessed it was him. As one of the Four Great Families, the Long Family finding a group of experts wouldn't be hard. Moreover, Long Tianjue had long been eyeing Li Sisi, unable to achieve his desires tonight, leaving the gala early was surely to prepare for this step.
That is to say, he already knew Sisi was staying at Xiaofan's place. This fellow, always hiding his intentions, with considerable scheming.
"Long Tianjue, what are you trying to do?"
"Sisi Miss, what could I do? What do you want me to do, don't you know?"
"You, this is kidnapping..."
"Kidnapping? So what?"
"You, are you just going to defy the law like this?"
"Li Sisi, do you know how much I like you?"
"I don't know, and I don't want to know."
Reaching this step, Long Tianjue was forced, but it was also premeditated.
Originally thinking, at the gala per his plan, he would certainly ask Li Sisi to have dinner with him tonight. Dinner, naturally, meant at night.
However, Xiaofan's appearance derailed all his plans, so to possess this woman, Long Tianjue used his last resort, forceful grab.
"You better let me go, otherwise, I will definitely take you to court."
"No no no, you won't..."
"I definitely will."
"You're an artist from XG, surely you know how the syndicates there control female celebrities?"
"What? What do you intend to do?"
"Hahahaha, Sisi Miss, I genuinely like you, it's because I like you so much that I'm forced to use such means to get you. Rest assured, if you're willing to be my girlfriend, I will definitely treat you well."
"Dream on..."
"Then, I have no choice left. You can't blame me."
Whatever Long Tianjue spoke of, Li Sisi felt a fear rising within her.
She knew Xiaofan was anxiously searching for her, but feared before she was found, she'd be... Once certain things happen, they cannot be undone, even if the instigator is slain.
Before XG returned, many entertainment companies were backed by syndicates, which could easily catapult an artist to stardom, but the desire to go solo among artists once famous was also common.
Hence, under such circumstances, these entertainment companies would use various means to retain these star artists within the company, continuing to profit from them.
Male artists were a different story, but female celebrities, with photos taken, and videos of them with multiple partners used for coercion, were not uncommon threats.
Thus, the entertainment industry was rife with chaos, and in this era, having someone like Li Sisi breakthrough was genuinely rare. Otherwise, why would Long Tianjue be so obsessed?
For these things, Li Sisi could be considered to have experienced them firsthand. Last time, Xiaofan rescued her in a critical moment, but this time? Can he appear in time again?
