He had set this up to distract Fade Chen, even choosing to go to a mountainous area in which one could not receive any phone signal. Concurrently, he could proceed with his evil scheme against Quin Lin.
If kidnapping Jordan Qi was all there was to motivating him, then an abandoned warehouse may have been more convenient than a cabin in the middle of the woods.
After Fade Chen had left and was soon not contactable, Watson Xie probably arranged for Quin Lin to either be threatened or swindled into marriage with Howard Zhang.
Of course, Watson Xie would want something in return. He probably had come to some agreement with Howard Zhang. That was probably what he was hinting at back in the cabin: that he would get his hands on the shares of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc regardless.
As for the disappearance of his vehicle and the bullet holes and bloodstains on Fade Chen's car, it must have been prearranged. This created the illusion that Fade Chen was in trouble in order to coerce Quin Lin into agreeing with their conditions.
Although Fade Chen was unclear about the details, he had a rough grasp of this evil plot.
Fade Chen sighed at the lengths Watson Xie had gone to come up with this plan. He had thought that he was just after the formula of the Life Elixir Wine, he never imagined that he was trying to spin such an intricate web.
If he had not vanquished him, Watson Xie would have acquired both the formula of the Life Elixir Wine and shares of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc. Also, Quin Lin would've fallen into the hands of Howard Zhang.
Fade Chen reproached himself for being too careless. It should haven't happened if he had noticed some details. Luckily, It was not too late to act against it.
The formula he wrote for Watson Xie had a flaw. When brewed, the end product would resemble the Life Elixir Wine.
However, in half an hour, one of the extra ingredients would cause the Life Elixir Wine to lose its potency and turn into a common medicinal brew.
He was therefore not concerned that the Xie Family might be able to brew the Life Elixir Wine according to the given formula.
The wedding ceremony of Quin Lin, however, was of urgent priority. He had to stop it at all costs.
Fade Chen had no time to lose and told Lily Wei, "Sorry, I have no time to explain right now. I am in a rush. Can you please try to contact Quin? Tell her that I am in no danger, and not to agree to any conditions or negotiations at the moment. Stop this marriage if you can."
Lily Wei was eager to know what was going on, but at the same time, she knew it was not the time for casual conversations. She promised Fade Chen, "I will find a way to do so."
After hanging up, Fade Chen made a call to Jimmy Wei, instructing him to bring some men to the wedding. If it came down to his opponents using force against him, he would have to fight with them for Quin Lin.
After the case involving Kevin Huang's assassination, Jimmy Wei felt indebted to Fade Chen, treating him with utmost respect and reverence. Upon hearing Fade Chen's request, he did not question it and agreed.
Finishing his calls, Fade Chen noticed they were approaching a small village. He was glad and carried Jordan Qi towards it.
The village was not big and had a small population, the fastest vehicle being an older motorbike. Fade Chen fished out ample amounts of cash and handed it to the motorbike owner.
He asked him to help take care of Jordan Qi. Getting on the motorbike, he cruised towards the city at high speed.
