Chapter 211: Rescue Plan
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Yunbao had a unique experience, which made her different from children her age. She preferred to solve problems simply and crudely. Moreover, she would start from the root, just like killing demons and ghosts.
Hearing Yunbao’s idea, Gu Teng felt that it was feasible. She said, “As long as Lily is not in Devon’s hands, we will have time to remove the spell. We don’t have to be afraid of this person’s threat.”
Cheng Xi thought for a moment and nodded firmly. “If I’m afraid that my days will only get worse and worse, I’d rather take a gamble in exchange for freedom.”
Cheng Xi was not someone who would submit to anyone. She had only become docile because of Devon’s methods. If not for these incantations, she would never have lowered her head.
Back then, Devon had pretended to be a gentleman and wanted to woo her, but she had rejected him cleanly.
Even after she was forced to get married, she still made a scene every day, wanting Devon to get tired of her asking for a divorce. Unexpectedly, she got pregnant and gave birth to Lily. Devon held her in his hand as a threat, so Cheng Xi forced herself to learn to be gentle.
Now that she had a chance to escape Devon, hope reignited in her. Her entire posture became arrogant, and she looked like she had Gu Teng’s memories.
Gu Teng knew that there was strength in numbers. She called Xiao Jing and the Gu family to discuss how to steal Lily. Even Gu Zi and Gu Ming participated in the discussion.
Seeing so many people come to help her, Cheng Xi was so touched that she almost cried. She could only say, “Thank you, thank you so much.”
Through Yunbao, Cheng Xi told everyone where Lily was and what Devon had done to them.
“Aunt Cheng said that Devon had placed a curse on her and Lily. He had also set up an array in the room so that Lily could not leave the room. She could only leave with him, so Aunt Cheng could not bring Lily out herself,” Yunbao said.
“I’ll bring our team to knock on the door. With the police there, he has to open up,” Fifth Brother Gu Jia suggested.
The second brother, Gu Yu, shook his head and said, “That won’t do. If you use the identity of a police officer to visit, what if you alert him and let him escape? After all, he didn’t break the law. You can’t detain him, right?”
Sixth Brother Gu Tang nodded and said, “With your status, you’re the least suitable to meet Devon. If there’s a conflict between public officials and foreigners, at most, it’s a national diplomatic matter.”
Gu Tang studied diplomacy and international politics overseas and had a lot of say in this aspect. Since he had said so, Gu Jia dismissed the thought.
Gu Lin thought for a moment and said, “The hotel there is under the Rong family. I should be able to take over for the time being. If the hotel catches fire, he will definitely come out.”
Gu Yu said, “I also have some connections overseas. I’ll ask them to investigate this Devon. They might have a way to negotiate with him.”
“That’s a good idea.” Gu Teng felt that these two were more reliable.
“I’ve been out for so long. I should go back. Otherwise, I’ll be worried about the child,” Cheng Xi said as she glanced at her watch.
Gu Teng pulled her back and said, “It’s better if you don’t go back. We’ll reunite with you after we save Lily.”
“If you go back, the difficulty of our rescue will increase. Why don’t you stay here first?” Xiao Jing said.
Cheng Xi shook her head and said, “You don’t know what’s going on. If I don’t go back, he will definitely be angry.”
Yunbao heard her thoughts and said, “You’re afraid that he’ll be angry and hit Lily. Then I’ll get Yaya and Glutinous Rice Ball to see what’s going on. Let’s save Sister Lily now.”
Yunbao jumped down from the sofa and said confidently. She was clearly still a child, but she was very reliable. Seeing everyone nod for her, Cheng Xi said, “Then let’s do as Yunbao says.”
Gu Lin called the Rong family to ask for the management rights of the hotel.
The group drove towards the hotel. After Yunbao entered the lobby, she called Yaya out and said, “Go upstairs to Room 2207 and take a look. How’s a girl called Lily now?
Yaya turned around and floated up. Purple Eye appeared, and she said,
“Yunbao, I can feel the smell of evil.”
Gu Lin successfully completed the handover. Today, the hotel would listen to his commands. Just as Yaya went upstairs, Cheng Xi suddenly felt a pain in her heart and almost fainted from the pain.
Yunbao immediately used a healing spell to stabilize Cheng Xi. Yunbao took out her wand and said, “You have to hold on. I’ll save Sister Lily.”
Yaya floated back and said, “That man is scolding Lily. It seems like he’s about to attack..”
