That evening, Su Ruobai knocked on Wen Wannian's door, only to discover that he was not there at all.

It's not very late, so it's possible that Wen Yuan might be out for errands or leisurely wandering.

After considering for a moment, Su Ruobai went back to her room, picked up her phone and wallet, and left the Guoyue Hotel.

At the entrance of the hotel, a black car was parked in a hidden corner. After seeing the person coming out from inside, they picked up their phone and dialed a number.

Sorry, but I can't generate a translation without any context or content in the paragraph. Could you please provide me with a specific paragraph or a larger portion of the novel?

As night fell, colorful signs lit up in all the shops, dazzling with brilliant colors, reflecting against the ink-black sky.

Su Ruobai walked on the street, looking lazy and inattentive.

Coming out for a walk after dinner feels rather nice. Of course, it would be even better if I happen to run into Wen Wannian during this time.

Su Ruoba did not like to procrastinate. Since she had decided to express her gratitude, it would be meaningless to do so later.

But after strolling for nearly half an hour, he still did not see Wen Wannian near the hotel.

It seems like they went out to handle some business.

There's no way to do it now. Su Ruobai can't just call and ask where they are.

Walking back to the hotel, Su Ruobai felt something was off.

Ever since he left the hotel, he felt like someone was watching him. Moreover, this uncomfortable gaze accompanied him as he moved, and it never disappeared.

Su Ruobai tried to walk towards crowded places, because in crowded places, there would generally be fewer problems.

However, just a moment ago, that persistent gaze suddenly disappeared.

In an instant, Su Ruobai no longer felt the uncomfortable gaze that had been making her uneasy.

This doesn't seem right.

The sudden sense of relief instead brought a sense of crisis to Su Ruobai.

Before the storm arrives, the sea is always calm. Some say it is an illusion created by the storm just before it unleashes its destructive blow upon people; others say it is the sea god Poseidon feeling pity for the hardworking fishermen.

Regardless of how you put it, the outcomes brought by storms are always unsatisfactory.

Su Ruobai walked faster and faster.

Just around the corner, you'll be able to see the hotel's entrance.

Just as the noise sounded, a black van screeched to a halt on the street beside Su Ruobai's peripheral vision.

Without a moment to resist, Su Ruobai was thrown into the car by several strong men who had gotten off the car, covering her mouth and nose. Their swift actions were astonishing.

Su Ruobai tried to struggle, but the thing covering his mouth and nose was damp, with a slight smell of medicine. This smell made his head dizzy and limbs weak. In the end, he could only lie motionless in the corner of the carriage, like a piece of fish on a plate, still retaining consciousness.

In his struggle, he took a quick glance and saw that there were a total of five people in the car, including the driver. They all looked like members of the underworld, with crew cuts, black suits, and large sunglasses. They remained silent and carried out their tasks efficiently, clearly showing a sense of purpose.

They seemed unafraid of Su Ruobai's escape, sitting upright in their own positions, staring straight ahead as if they were motionless robots, only capable of carrying out their tasks.

Suddenly, a few seconds of crackling sound from an electrical current being connected came through the intercom in front, followed by an indistinct voice that couldn't be heard clearly.

"Has the person been caught?"

Someone immediately replied inside the carriage, "We caught him."

"Very well, bring it to the warehouse."

"Understood."

"Someone specifically requested to capture me?"

Who could it be?

Could it be Su Qiaoqiao, who suffered a verbal attack at the gym just moments ago?

Su Ruobai's mind was erratic, and even the sounds he heard seemed to have echoes, as if they were too distant to be discerned clearly. Gradually, he felt a sense of darkness all around him. In just a few minutes, he fainted.
