Chapter 9

Fen Bai and Yi Yuan took another car back to the company, the whole car ride was filled with cold silence, they were both angry at themselves but had no way of releasing their anger and could only let it fester inside. At the company Fen Bai sat at his desk, Yi Yuan sitting in front of him, everyone in the company had been given one order:

⦁ FIND LIN YU & LU YIFENG

Yi Yuan sent the recording of the call to Fen Bai and he opened it, playing it out loud. Fen Bai focused on all the details Lu YiFeng had given about the cars. During the chase Yi Yuan had written down two number plates and he had given them to a worker to find the owners. The call went on for twenty three minutes; both men listened closely to the part of the call they couldn't focus on at the time it happened.The call was still connected when the men had taken Lu YiFeng and Lin Yu. The men didn't speak until they found Lu YiFeng in the driver's seat. One man must've aimed his gun because a voice rang out faintly.

"No, we take him too. Boss wanted him as well."

Lu YiFeng could be heard regain consciousness he weakly called out Lin Yu's name, his voice being cut off abruptly. No other people spoke for the remainder of the call. Fen Bai and Yi Yuan sat quietly, repeating the audio again spending the next hour listening to the call and writing down all the details from the call as well as their memories. Everytime he heard Lin Yu's sobs through the call Fen Bai's heart burned with rage.

When Fen Bai stopped the recording after the umpteenth time, a notification dinged on his phone, he had received an email with a video file attached. Yi Yuan stood behind Fen Bai as he selected the video to play. The opening shot was of Lu YiFeng naked on a wooden floor. Yi Yuan clenched his jaw tightly to stop himself from cursing out.

Three hooded men stood behind Lu YiFeng each holding a wooden baseball bat each. One by one they each went forwards striking down against Lu YiFeng's skinny naked body. He didn't shout out in pain, instead choosing to bite down firmly on his lip small grunts escaping, when the bat would hit his skin. The men continued beating Lu YiFeng for two minutes and suddenly Lin Yu could be heard crying out for them to stop, although he wasn't in view he must've been close because his voice came through clearly.

"STOP HURTING HIM, PLEASE. STOP. MR LI PLEASE, I BEG YOU STOP."

A crisp slapping noise was heard, the men holding the bats stopped their abuse. Lu YiFeng was lying limply on the ground, the men had hit everywhere on his body except for his head. Bruises had already mottled his body. The video only lasted a little over two minutes but the seconds seemed to drag on for hours. Fen Bai stood up and he walked over to a cabinet grabbing out an iron rod and struck down with all his might against the metal coffee table in the middle of his room, he roared as if he was an animal with every strike he made until his body was wet with sweat. Yi Yuan watched his fingernails had already dug into his palms, blood covering both his hands. He reached forward towards Fen Bais mouse, covering it in blood and played the video again, turning the volume up until the sounds of the wooden bats striking against Lu YiFeng's bare skin sounded out loudly. It was as if the beating was happening in Fen Bai's office.

Fen Bai stood in the middle of his office with closed eyes, the iron rod was dropped to the carpeted floor and his hands were shaking slightly. Yi Yuan looped the video just like the call recording, the video played on countless times. Fen Bai sent out a message for Xiu Chenle to come to his office no questions asked, when he arrived the mess inside the office shocked him and the twins that were standing behind him.

Xiu Chenle had already been on his way to meet with Fen Bai since he had been informed about Lin Yu. He brought forth all the data and papers about Lin Huanli and Li HongYi he had been collecting secretly for Fen Bai. The twins who were supposed to start university today were no longer able to attend anymore, in fear they would be targeted because of the information Xiu Chenle had collected.
