Chapter 779: Suspicious Person.
Shi Caining hugged him silently. She listened to his strong heartbeat and smelled his familiar scent. She wished that she could stick to him at all times.
Love became even stronger after they separated.
After they separated, family ties became even purer.
"Didn't you sleep well? Why are your eyes bloodshot?" Shi Caining hugged him for a while before raising her head to look at him. However, when she saw his bloodshot eyes, she could not help but frown as she asked.
He looked at her pretty face and her frown caused a slight heartache. Gu Kuangen kissed her forehead. "I didn't sleep well. There's something I need to tell you..."
Shi Caining was startled and looked at him. "What's the matter?"
Gu Kuangen reached into his pocket and took out a piece of paper.
Shi Caining's heart suddenly sank because that piece of paper was very unique. It was the same piece of paper that the person who stole the diary had left for her.
On the white piece of paper, there was a small rose that was printed there. It was as eye-catching as a raging flame.
"Open it and take a look."
Gu Kuangen pulled her to the side. "It was left behind for me by that person."
Shi Caining's hand trembled as she slowly opened the piece of paper.
On the piece of paper, two lines of words were printed. "I am the person who took Miss Shi's diary. If you want your daughter to be safe and sound, transfer 100 million to me!"
The second line of words was a foreign account.
Shi Caining looked at this piece of paper in shock. Her heart was beating so fast that it was on the verge of collapse. Her palms were slowly dripping with sweat. "You... Really transferred 100 million to him?"
Gu Kuangen looked into Shi Caining's eyes and nodded lightly!
She gasped. The person who stole the diary was indeed very resourceful. He had already killed two people, but he had not left a single trace behind!
And now, he knew where her and Gu Kuangen's daughter were. When he had stolen the diary before, he had not asked for money.
"Do you think I'm stupid?" Gu Kuangen smiled faintly.
Shi Caining hurriedly shook her head, her eyes still red. "No... You're not stupid. One hundred million is not too much for us, but if we can guarantee the safety of our daughter, that's great. But what if he... What if he continues to ask for money?"
This time he wants 100 million. What if the next time he wants 500 million? What should they do?
"That won't happen. I believe he has no ill intentions towards us." Gu Kuangen shook his head. Shi Caining bit her lips, trying hard not to cry.
"These past few days, I've been trying to curry favor with Li Tingshen, but I've done it very naturally. He seems to be in a much better state of mind, of course..." Shi Caining moved closer to Gu Kuangen's ear and whispered, "I've even mixed some Western medicine into the soup that he drank."
"Caining, you have to be careful! If he finds out..."
Shi Caining nodded coldly. "I'm very careful. Even though there's a surveillance camera in the kitchen, there's still a blind spot. Also, the medicine I put in is very rare and mild. It's the medicine that I asked you to buy for me."
That Western medicine had a calming effect, and the side effects weren't that great. Shi Caining put it into the soup, but it was only a little.
She also drank the soup. Madam Li didn't like to drink it, so even if she drank it, it wouldn't be a problem. After all, that medicine was recently modified.
Shi Caining remembered something and could not help but ask, "Kuangen, did you find out who stole the diary?"
The man who stole the diary was the murderer of Yu Shuangwei and Ling Yunni. She felt that she should have seen him when she was in high school. She also listed many suspicious characters for Gu Kuangen.
