Xiao Keyi’s words left Xu Ke momentarily unsure of how to respond, because he wasn’t sure what Xu Ke was talking about.

"Are you hiding something from me? Why do I always feel like I don’t understand what you’re talking about?"

Xiao Keyi then realized she had misspoken, and they didn’t want Xu Ke to worry about this, so they hadn’t told him initially.

"It’s nothing, I just misspoke," Xiao Keyi quickly explained.

But by this time, Xu Ke clearly didn’t believe what she said.

The way Xiao Keyi was acting didn’t seem like someone who was carefree.

"What are you hiding from me? Say it quickly, otherwise I’ll find out and get angry at you."

Xu Ke felt extremely uncomfortable now, as he was working tirelessly on the company’s affairs, and yet they were hiding other matters from him.

Seeing Xu Ke in this state, Xiao Keyi was also visibly anxious. He wasn’t intentionally hiding it from Xu Ke, but merely didn’t want the other to worry too much.

"Xu Ke, don’t be upset. Auntie and everyone know about it. We didn’t tell you because we didn’t want our concerns to affect you."

At this point, Wang Cuixia hurriedly came over to explain.

"Son, Keyi is right. You were busy in the study room reviewing materials the past few days, so we didn’t tell you. Actually, when Keyi went out last time, someone tried to kidnap him. But nothing happened afterward, and we followed the clues to investigate, but still haven’t identified the mastermind or the kidnappers behind the event."

Xu Ke was extremely surprised upon hearing Wang Cuixia’s words.

He didn’t expect that during the time he was busy reviewing files, Xiao Keyi had encountered a kidnapping.

Although he had considered such a possibility, he didn’t expect the other’s actions to be so swift.

However, now that Xiao Keyi was okay, Xu Ke felt relieved.

"In the future, you must tell me about such things early. Don’t be afraid; if you hide things, I will worry even more."

Xu Ke’s words made everyone present breathe a sigh of relief; Xu Ke had unknowingly become Xu Jia’s backbone.

Even the old man of the Xu Family gradually acknowledged Xu Ke’s position and was preparing to slowly hand over all the family affairs to him.

"Xu Ke is right. Whenever there’s something, we should just talk openly, and not hide it. If there really is something, we should solve it together instead of hiding it."

After listening to the old man of the Xu Family, everyone present gently nodded.

Although their intention wasn’t wrong, as family, especially at crucial moments, they shouldn’t keep secrets from each other.

Right now Xu Ke was concerned about who would dare to kidnap Xiao Keyi?

The most surprising thing for him was that although their Xu Family was influential, they couldn’t trace the mastermind and the kidnapper.

This indicated that the identity of the person behind the scenes must be unusual.

At least they should be similar to or rival the Xu Family in some ways.

Xu Ke immediately had a suspect in mind; he suspected that Wang Lishan was behind this!

After all, there has been so much about him today, making it impossible for Xu Ke not to be suspicious.

"Since you haven’t found out who’s behind this, I’ll go investigate myself. Anyway, the company’s issues are mostly sorted out; we can only wait for the other to act to know the next step."

Xu Ke was now waiting for Wang Lishan’s next move; only that way, there was a chance the other would show any hints.

Recently, Wang Cuixia had mobilized all available forces around her, yet hadn’t found any valuable clues.

Xu Ke had spoken, so now all this could only be left for him to handle.

After all, no matter what, this issue must be uncovered, or if something happens later, it would definitely be very serious.

"Since we can’t find out right now, let’s leave this matter to you. But also don’t push yourself; it’s great if you find something, but it’s okay if you don’t."

Wang Cuixia didn’t want to put too much pressure on Xu Ke, especially since he now had to manage Xu’s Company and protect Xiao Keyi’s safety.

"Mom, I know what I’m supposed to do. You now tell me specifically what happened, so I can address it properly."

Then Xiao Keyi explained everything that happened at the time to Xu Ke.

After listening to Xiao Keyi, Xu Ke began to ponder carefully.

The doubts within were too numerous, and he didn’t know where to start at that moment.

However, his intuition told him that dealing with this should actually be easy; the reason Wang Cuixia and the others hadn’t found valuable clues must be due to a wrong investigation direction.

Xu Ke thought the investigation shouldn’t start based on the person’s appearance or other aspects, as there were way too many people like this in the capital.

Grabbing just anyone would be impossible within a reasonable time frame.

In this era of the Internet, no one is without a mobile phone. Xu Ke suddenly realized he could use this clue and asked Dabin to help him investigate.

Realizing this direction, Xu Ke was quite amazed.

How hadn’t he thought of it? Anything on the internet can’t escape Dabin’s eyes.

Then he asked Xiao Keyi where exactly he was being followed, and promptly sent this information to Dabin.

"Dabin, I’ve sent you the location where my girlfriend encountered the kidnapping; can you check if there’s any surveillance nearby to obtain the footage?"

Upon receiving Xu Ke’s message, Dabin immediately began investigating.

Xiao Keyi was in the park at the time, and generally, parks have cameras, but not every corner can be captured.

However, unfortunately, the area where Keyi was at the time was in a blind spot.

This means, unluckily, all of Xiao Keyi’s moments weren’t captured.

"Xu Ke, there’s no camera there, and I didn’t see any footage of your girlfriend."

No cameras also meant that none of these people’s images were captured.

Xu Ke suddenly realized that since these people dared to kidnap Xiao Keyi, they were organized and disciplined.

It’s estimated that their escape route was pre-planned to avoid the cameras.

"Camera, camera." These words kept echoing in Xu Ke’s mind.

Suddenly, he thought of a question: Even if this group of kidnappers had things perfectly arranged, they couldn’t be certain of Xiao Keyi’s movements, so they must have started following him once he stepped out.
