CCTV News: In Beijing, Chen Shuting brings a woman to her door.

Zhao Ruilong was enraged by Gao Qilin's resolute attitude. He pointed his finger at Gao Qilin's nose, his voice filled with anger.

"Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you've won! I'll make you regret making the decision to oppose me today!"

Zhao Ruilong left the bidding venue in a fit of rage, his heart filled with anger and hatred towards Gao Qilin.

His fists clenched, his face contorted with barely concealed rage. Zhao Ruilong secretly vowed to find an opportunity to teach Gao Qilin a lesson he would never forget.

"Gao Qilin! You just wait!" Zhao Ruilong was filled with resentment and hatred.

Zhao Ruilong returned to his office at the Zhao Group, his face grim and his brows furrowed.

His eyes revealed a hint of dissatisfaction and disappointment as he angrily thought about what had just happened.

The failure to win the bid was a huge blow to Zhao Ruilong.

He has always regarded Gao Qilin as a thorn in his side, and wants to completely destroy the Qiangsheng Group and seize the resources and influence they control.

However, Gao Qilin and Guo Shaoheng completely thwarted each of their plans.

"Kihara!" Zhao Ruilong roared, "Cheng Yu, go and teach Kihara a lesson right now! He took my money and then tried to fool me with a fake tender document!"

Cheng Yu replied with a hint of annoyance, "Fine, I'll handle this." Mu Yuan pushed open the door to his house, where a scene of utter chaos came into view.

Scattered papers and documents were strewn all over the floor, and the furniture in the house was kicked over, clearly indicating serious damage.

His face was ashen, his fists clenched tightly, revealing an expression of anger and helplessness.

Kihara realized he had to take action to protect himself. He took out his phone and immediately dialed Guo Shaoheng's number.

"Hello? Secretary Guo? I've been retaliated against by Zhao Ruilong!" His voice was filled with anger and anxiety.

Guo Shaoheng's calm and composed voice came from the other end of the phone. "Don't panic, tell me the details."

“My home has been vandalized! The Zhao Group sent people to cause trouble.” Kihara said dejectedly, “I can’t get a proper rest now. They really will stop at nothing.”

After a moment's thought, Guo Shaoheng said, "Okay, don't panic. I'll arrange for someone to protect you and ensure your safety."

Kihara breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you, Guo Shaoheng! I really didn't know what to do."

"It's alright, we'll protect you," Guo Shaoheng replied calmly.

After hanging up the phone, Guo Shaoheng went to Gao Qilin's office and found him sitting at his desk organizing a pile of documents.

Hearing the door open, Gao Qilin looked up and smiled slightly, gesturing for Guo Shaoheng to sit down.

Guo Shaoheng said with a serious expression, "President Gao, I just received a call from Mu Yuan. The Zhao Group retaliated against him and completely disrupted his family's life."

"I have an idea now, but I don't know if it's feasible."

Gao Qilin frowned slightly, his gaze fixed on Guo Shaoheng. "Tell me your thoughts in detail."

“First, we need to find Zhao Ruilong’s weakest point,” Guo Shaoheng said.

"After reviewing a large amount of information, I found that the Zhao Group had some loopholes in its financial management."

Gao Qilin raised an eyebrow slightly. "Continue."

“I think we can exploit these vulnerabilities and deliver a heavy blow to Zhao Ruilong through a series of actions,” Guo Shaoheng suggested.

Gao Qilin pondered for a moment, then nodded. "Do you have any specific ideas?"

Guo Shaoheng explained the entire plan in detail to Gao Qilin, starting with exposing the financial loopholes in the Zhao Group.

Then they used the media to expose their illegal activities and cooperated with other competitors to suppress their market share.

Gao Qilin listened carefully to Guo Shaoheng's idea, and his gaze gradually sharpened.

...

The two men, their brows furrowed, discussed how to precisely strike Zhao Ruilong, gradually forming a feasible plan. Meanwhile, in the Zhao Group office, Zhao Ruilong listened gleefully to his subordinates' report of the successful revenge against Kihara, his face beaming with smug satisfaction.

A sly glint appeared in his eyes as he plotted how to get his hands on the land and gain greater benefits for himself.

Chapter 663 Gao Yue is Kidnapped

Zhao Ruilong stroked his chin slightly, lost in thought. He knew he had to get that land, but how could he make Gao Qilin submit?

Zhao Ruilong pondered carefully, knowing that the person Gao Qilin cared about most was his daughter, Gao Yue.

Suddenly, a brilliant idea struck him: he decided to kidnap Gao Yue to threaten Gao Qilin. This was his best bargaining chip, and a weakness his opponent couldn't ignore.

Zhao Ruilong said to his subordinates with a cold smile, "I need you to shift your focus to Gao Yue."

Upon hearing this, his subordinates immediately understood Zhao Ruilong's intention, and each of them showed a respectful expression.

"Understood!" everyone responded in unison.

Zhao Ruilong looked at his men with a solemn expression. "This mission is extremely important. We must keep a low profile and not let anyone discover our whereabouts." Zhao Ruilong's men acted swiftly, immediately lying in ambush near Gao Yue's school after the order was given, waiting for Gao Yue to appear.

Gao Yue was walking out of the school gate chatting and laughing with her classmates, and she hadn't even had time to react yet.

Suddenly, she felt a man in black grab her arm from behind, and another man in black immediately covered her mouth.

Gao Yue opened her eyes wide in terror, struggling desperately, but the man in black was far stronger than she had imagined. A look of helplessness and fear flashed in her eyes.

The students and parents around were stunned by the sudden scene. They were stunned for a moment, and then they all exclaimed in surprise.

Someone called the patrol bureau, but the men in black quickly took Gao Yue to a van that was waiting nearby.

The van sped away past the terrified and helpless crowd, and no one dared to give chase. The van weaved through narrow alleyways, and Gao Yue was dragged by the men in black into a secluded, abandoned building.

She was pushed to a corner of the abandoned building, where only a faint ray of sunlight shone through the dilapidated window, making the entire space seem even more eerie.

Gao Yue felt a surge of helplessness and fear as she watched the man in black stare intently at her. She tried to hold back her tears, but couldn't.

"What exactly do you want to do?" Gao Yue asked, trembling with grief and indignation.

"You'd better stay here obediently." The man in black's voice was cold and hoarse, echoing in the eerie environment.

The abandoned building was filled with dampness and a musty smell, and there were some water stains on the walls.

Gao Yue felt a wave of despair. She struggled to break free from the black-clad man's control, but he calmly restrained her and warned her not to try to escape. In the Qiangsheng Group office, Gao Qilin sat in a leather chair, dressed in a sharp business suit, his brows furrowed.

He held the phone, listening to Chen Shuting's voice from the other end, his eyes revealing anxiety and worry.

Chen Shuting's voice was urgent and tense on the other end of the phone, "Qilin, Yueyue has been kidnapped! I don't know what to do!" Chen Shuting broke down in tears on the other end of the phone.

Gao Qilin immediately replied, "Don't worry, I'll find someone to rescue her. You need to stay calm."

Gao Qilin then hung up the phone. He stood up and, with a grave expression, spoke to Guo Shaoheng beside him.

"Go investigate immediately and see if you can find out who kidnapped Yueyue. Those people are really audacious to dare to bully me."

He clenched his fists, his knuckles turning slightly white, and a flash of anger crossed his eyes.

Guo Shaoheng nodded and quickly left the office. He understood Gao Qilin's feelings at that moment and knew what the kidnapping meant to Gao Qilin.

He calmly considered his options, recalling all possible clues and suspects in his mind. Gao Qilin sat at his desk, his fingers lightly tapping the surface, his face tense and worried.

His brow furrowed slightly, his eyes filled with thought and anxiety. Who exactly kidnapped Gao Yue? His heart was filled with questions and resentment.

Suddenly, his phone rang, interrupting Gao Qilin's thoughts.

He quickly picked up his phone to answer, but Zhao Ruilong's smug voice came from the other end.

"Gao Qilin, haven't you received the news yet? You're such a loser. I can't believe you can't even protect your own daughter."

Hearing Zhao Ruilong's smug tone, Gao Qilin immediately understood everything. It turned out that Zhao Ruilong had kidnapped Gao Yue!

"What exactly do you want? You're capable of kidnapping a child!" Gao Qilin gripped the phone tightly in anger, his heart filled with resentment and determination.

“As long as you hand over the new land you have to the Zhao Group, I guarantee your daughter will be safe and sound.” Zhao Ruilong’s smug tone became increasingly uncontrollable, his words filled with provocation. Hearing Zhao Ruilong’s provocation, Gao Qilin could no longer suppress his anger.

"Zhao Ruilong, don't think I'll agree to your request so easily," he said coldly. At the same time, he silently prayed for Gao Yue's safety.

"Hmph, you've got guts, huh? In that case, I won't hold back!" Zhao Ruilong retorted aggressively.

Gao Qilin was in a heavy mood, but he maintained a calm and gentle tone.

"I can give you the new land, but only if you first give me proof that my daughter is safe and sound."

Chapter 664 Departure

Zhao Ruilong laughed mockingly. "What a tragedy, even his own daughter is being used as a bargaining chip."

Gao Qilin suppressed his anger and subtly showed his concern for Gao Yue.

"This is just a request of mine. After all, what do our past grievances matter in front of Yueyue?"

He spoke gently yet firmly. Zhao Ruilong agreed to Gao Qilin's request over the phone. Not long after hanging up, a video was sent to Gao Qilin's phone, who was sitting in his office.

He froze, his eyes filled with anger and helplessness. In the video, Gao Yue cried out for her father with a terrified expression.

The image reveals a dark space, clearly some unknown place.

Gao Qilin's face was gloomy, a flash of anger appeared in his eyes, and his fingers tapped sharply on the table.

His voice was filled with anger and an undeniable authority: "Shaoheng, look at this video and go find out where it was filmed."

Gao Qilin handed the phone to Guo Shaoheng. The video was playing on a loop, showing Gao Yue's pitiful little face on the screen.

Guo Shaoheng frowned, knowing that there was no time to waste now.

Upon receiving Gao Qilin's order, he immediately replied with a serious and focused expression, "Okay, I will find out where Gao Yue is being held via video as soon as possible!"

Guo Shaoheng then quickly left the office. Gao Qilin received another call from Zhao Ruilong.

Zhao Ruilong's arrogant and mocking laughter came from the other end of the phone.
