After hanging up the phone, Zhai Cheng's heart still felt as if it was being clutched tightly, making it almost hard for him to breathe.
Judging from the implication in that scumbag Xu Yan's words, Song Ge should be in his hands. If she really fell into his clutches, would that stupid girl Song Ge suffer?
Just thinking about how Xu Yan might treat Song Ge, Zhai Cheng felt as if his heart was being fried in a pan.
"Sir, don't worry too much. Maybe Miss Song didn't fall into his hands," Maid Chen consoled him worriedly.
After getting along with her for so many days, they all truly recognized Song Ge in their hearts and naturally didn't want anything bad to happen to her.
Zhai Cheng kept a cold face and didn't say a word. At this moment, his mind was filled with Song Ge's figure. How could he listen to what Maid Chen was saying?
On Xu Yan's side, Song Ge was anxiously trying to figure out how to leave. In the villa, Zhai Cheng was even more restless, pacing back and forth in the living room.
"Sir, why don't you go upstairs and rest for a while? You haven't had a good rest since Miss Song went missing," Maid Chen advised him worriedly.
Even a person made of iron couldn't hold up if they kept going like this, let alone he wasn't made of iron.
Zhai Cheng shook his head, closed his eyes and then opened them. There was a hint of confusion in his eyes. "Maid Chen, she'll be alright, right?"
He was really worried. As long as she was okay, what did it matter if he stood here a little longer?
Maid Chen didn't expect that Zhai Cheng would have such a vulnerable moment. For a moment, she was a bit taken aback.
But soon, she came to her senses and nodded repeatedly in agreement. "Miss Song is so smart. She will definitely be alright. Sir, don't worry."
Their sir had really changed. If it had been before, how could he have been so worried because of someone else?
Witnessing Zhai Cheng's changes, Maid Chen was truly happy for him from the bottom of her heart.
Maybe asking was just to find a spiritual sustenance. After getting Maid Chen's answer, a confident smile appeared on Zhai Cheng's face. "I'll go to the study to deal with some things first. Bring me a cup of coffee later."
After saying that, Zhai Cheng rushed towards the study on the second floor.
Sitting at the desk, Zhai Cheng stared straight at a dagger on the table.
Just now, he suddenly thought of a question. Since his death would always lead to the reset of time, if he chose to commit suicide this time, would the time go back and Song Ge wouldn't be captured?
Thinking of this possibility, a flash of excitement flashed across Zhai Cheng's eyes, and his hand slowly reached out towards the dagger.
"Sir, what are you doing? The dagger is very dangerous," Maid Chen shouted hurriedly, trying to stop his action of reaching for the dagger.
Zhai Cheng looked up and saw Maid Chen walking towards him with a cup of coffee in her hand. Her face was full of worry.
"It's okay. I won't do anything stupid," Zhai Cheng said with a bitter smile, shaking his head. He motioned for her to put the coffee on the desk with his eyes. "I haven't found Song Ge yet. I'll be fine. You can go out and get back to your work first."
Maid Chen was still a bit worried, but since Zhai Cheng had given the order to leave, she didn't dare to say anything more. She left while looking back at him several times.
After Maid Chen had left for a while, Zhai Cheng picked up the dagger again and slowly pointed it at his chest.
This time, the time must be reset. Otherwise, there would really be no way to save Song Ge. Zhai Cheng silently prayed in his heart.
The dagger was getting closer and closer to his heart. Zhai Cheng gritted his teeth and tried to push it in.
The opportunity to reset time has passed...
At the last moment, a cold voice suddenly flashed through Zhai Cheng's mind. Although it was very brief, Zhai Cheng was still sure that there was indeed such a voice.
The dagger that was almost touching his chest suddenly stopped. Zhai Cheng suddenly calmed down.
What was he thinking just now? What if the time couldn't be reset after he committed suicide? Wouldn't Song Ge be in even greater danger then?
Thinking of this, Zhai Cheng felt a chill run down his spine. He put the dagger back on the desk again.
What should he do now? How could he rescue Song Ge from that bastard Xu Yan?
Sitting alone on the sofa, Zhai Cheng heaved a deep sigh. His eyebrows were full of exhaustion.
"Is this the police station? I want to report a case," Zhai Cheng finally dialed the phone number of the police station after much thought.
He had to make a foolproof plan. No matter what, Song Ge couldn't be in the slightest bit of danger. He couldn't afford to take that risk.
The police also knew Xu Yan's reputation. When they heard that the person Zhai Cheng was reporting was him, although they were a bit embarrassed, they still managed to find out the ins and outs of the matter.
After all, neither Zhai Cheng nor Xu Yan was someone a small police officer could afford to offend.
"Mr. Zhai, please rest assured. Once we have any results, we will definitely contact you immediately," the police officer said when about to hang up the phone. He didn't forget to comfort Zhai Cheng.
Zhai Cheng gave a faint grunt and didn't say anything more.
Reporting the case to the police could only provide a little bit of guarantee. To rescue Song Ge intact, he still had to figure out a way on his own.
Locking himself in the study, Zhai Cheng frowned almost into a straight line. He always felt that this was still not very safe. As long as there was the slightest mistake, Song Ge would face immeasurable danger.
"Sir, please eat something first," Maid Chen knocked on the door and carefully came in with a plate of food.
Zhai Cheng lifted his chin. "Put it there first. I'll eat it later."
Maid Chen obediently put it down. There was a faint look of worry between her eyebrows. "Sir, don't worry too much. Miss Song has good luck and will definitely be alright."
"Okay," Zhai Cheng's frown relaxed a little. He gave a nonchalant grunt.
"We've also heard a bit about Xu Yan. We just hope he won't play any tricks at the hand - over location," Maid Chen murmured in a low voice, her tone full of worry.
The hand - over location? Hearing this, Zhai Cheng's eyes suddenly lit up. How could he almost forget about this?
"Maid Chen, you can go out first. I will definitely finish all this food," Zhai Cheng picked up his phone and seemed to be looking for something. He issued the order to leave again.
Maid Chen gave him a suspicious look but left without saying anything.
"What? Has Young Master Zhai changed his mind again? Suddenly don't want to negotiate?" The phone was answered after just one or two rings. Xu Yan's annoying voice came from the phone.
There was a hint of impatience between Zhai Cheng's eyebrows, but he still endured it and said, "I think the time and location we set earlier are not very safe. So I'm calling you to re - confirm them."
"Why? We've already agreed on it. How can you just change it?" Xu Yan immediately refused.
"Why are you so excited, Young Master Xu? Could it be that there's something wrong with that location?" Zhai Cheng curled his lips and joked in a good mood.
However, his eyes were cold.
Xu Yan was silent for a moment and then said angrily, "Then tell me where it's suitable for us to meet. You'd better not play any tricks."
