He was brilliant, manipulative, and obsessed with all kinds of experiments. He didn't care about ethics or consequences. All he wanted was to push the limits of science, at any cost, to achieve whatever he wanted, but he hadn't thought about the effects of those experiments on humans."
Her voice caught for a moment feeling her throat was dry, "And I was young, eager, desperate to prove myself. I signed off on things without reading the fine print and trusted him more than I should have. He used me as a cover, and when things started to spiral out of control… he had already set me up to take the fall. I came to know of it as time went by, by then I was expelled from the academy, and I stopped doing anything involved with science; that's the reason I didn't mind getting engaged to my sister's husband because that was another way of escaping all that and staying low key."
Lu Zhi Hao held her waist and dragged her into his arms hugging her tightly. He didn't know his wife had gone through such a tragedy, but with understanding, he hugged her tightly to assure her and let her feel safe.
"He is probably the one who has Lu Ting Zhou, and he is asking for you and Lu Zi Zhen in exchange for them. It's possible that he needs you because of the same experiment." He loudly sighed, kissing her on the temples, trying to comfort her.
"An exchange? Do you have the location?" Lu Wan Ruyi narrowed her eyes dangerously. They wanted her probably for those experiments. But would she let them win? She knew what those experiments could do to normal human beings, and how would she let them win?
"The location was sent, but this location definitely is where the exchange would happen and not where they are holding Lu Ting Zhou apparently. And it's possible that they don't exchange the two of you but take both of you hostage, if you don't do what they want, they could threaten you with Lu Ting Zhou's life." He let go before showing her the video they received and then the location that person had sent them.
With her fingers and the laptop, she immediately searched the aerial view of that location, adding a few miles in all directions to see what vicinity was close by.
"Father, does she know him? Because we doubt that, he is the one who kidnapped Lu Ting Zhou and Song Yaya." Lu Zi Zhen walked into the VIP bedroom, worried, wondering what was taking his father so long. They knew he was a romantic man and could possibly be comforting their mother but they didn't have much time on their hands at the moment.
"I'm checking the aerial view of that location and see what's surrounding the area." It didn't take long, and she already had an aerial view of the said location; Lu Ting Cheng and Lu Zi Zhen got closer looking at that screen.
The place seemed to be surrounded by trees, apart from trees, there were government geographical sites. The road was steep and to the sides, only sloping Hills. If they went there with their men, then their survival chances were negative because, if a fight broke out, they would only go down the slopes. You couldn't drive through that road recklessly.
"This place ain't the safest place they could have picked. We can't make it out of there, and looking at this room they are held in, have lights turned on, and their shadows are darker, meaning the place is built underground, and that means this place can't be in the middle of nowhere, it has to be within the center." Lu Wan Ruyi was faster when it came to uncovering the little details of the video. She had discerning eyes and could tell what was surrounding them from that video.
