Chapter 221-1: Have a great time sinking
Xu Zhihong hinted with his eyes, and Hairy Ball happily pressed the speaker button. A restrained voice was heard.
“Hello? Is it Little Ye? Little Ye, are you alright?”
Hearing this voice, Yuan Ye’s consciousness jolted, because this was his father, Yuan Hewei’s voice, “Dad, I’m alright. Don’t worry, I haven’t been hurt.”
“That’s good then, is Tangtang there as well?” Yuan Hewei caringly asked.
“Uncle Yuan, I’m also here, they handcuffed us.” Said Tangtang as she angrily glared at Xu Zhihong.
A different voice was heard from the phone shouting, “Hello! Tangtang, it’s Daddy, don’t be afraid, Daddy will definitely save you!!”
“Dad, they have locked us in a…wu! Wuwu……”
Tangtang wanted to describe the pier where they were locked up at, but Hairy Ball who had been prepared for this directly covered Tangtang’s mouth and held Tangtang’s head still, ensuring that she couldn’t speak another word.
Tangtang wanted to bite his hand, but Hairy Ball’s hand was filthy and stinky, causing her to feel stifled, she didn’t dare to even think about biting anymore.
“Hehe, young lady, you can eat however way you like, but can’t spout whatever words you want.” Hairy Ball said with a grin.
“Bastard! Release Tangtang!” Yuan Ye was so angry that his face was flushed.
Fang Zhongping on the line angrily said, “What are you doing to my girl!? If you people dare harm her, I definitely won’t let things end well for you!”
“Secretary Fang… relax, we’re here to amiably negotiate, and won’t harm your daughter.”
Hearing that deep voice, Yang Chen’s brows creased. Yuan Ye and Tangtang may not know this person as they weren’t the type to come into contact with people like that, but Yang Chen remembered this voice very clearly. The owner of this voice was actually the old gangster from Dongxing, Zhou Guangnian!
With this revelation, he was able to connect the dots. Other than Zhou Guangnian who controlled half of Zhonghai’s underworld and the Dongxing group that was filled with black money, there was indeed no one else in Zhonghai who would dare do something this crazy alongside Xu Zhihong and go against the Yuan Family and Fang Family.
Zhou Guangnian’s advantage lies in his power in the underworld. He wasn’t someone who could immediately be dealt with just with money or power in the government. Even though he was going directly against the Yuan Family and Fang Family, he could use some methods to give them trouble, and after they have paid the price, lead them to accept a compromise.
“Uncle Fang, don’t listen to them! They definitely won’t dare to do anything to us!” Yuan Ye shouted.
Xu Zhihong sneered, “Young Master Yuan, don’t be so naive. Since we dare to kidnap you, we obviously dare to do other things. I advise you to be good and beg your parents to be more willing to part with worldly possessions like money and power. If they’re willing to cooperate with us, we may even let you leave this place sooner.”
“Xu Zhihong! You actually dare collude with that old fogey Zhou Guangnian! Your Xu Family’s reputation has been completely tarnished by you!” Fang Zhongping shouted from the phone.
Xu Zhihong didn’t even flinch as he replied, “Secretary Fang, whether the Xu Family is good or evil isn’t for you to decide. The victor writes history, it’s not like the Yuan Family and Fang Family has never done anything shameful. You guys need not try to use big reasoning on me. I advise you all to stop being so long-winded, for your children are in my hands. If we’re not satisfied, we could tie them up and throw them into the seas to feed the fish. You won’t even be able to find their bones. I am not joking, Chairman Zhou will personally negotiate with you, I suggest that you be hospitable to him. That’s all I have to say, you big bosses and officials can decide for yourselves.”
“Little Ye, Tangtang, don’t you worry, we will definitely rescue you!” Fang Zhongping shouted at the end, and the line was cut.
Only then did Hairy Ball release the hand that he covered Tangtang’s mouth with. Tangtang panted heavily, she nearly suffocated.
“Boss, I, Old Hairy have already said so, big things have to be done like this. Look how much effort we saved by kidnapping these two kids, everything is now negotiable, right?”
Xu Zhihong ignored him, and looked at Yang Chen with amusement and said, “Mr. Yang, you can be considered as one of the reasons why I am in this position today.”
“What does this have to do with me?” Yang Chen pouted, he didn’t understand.
“If it wasn’t because of your sudden appearance, I would have made Lin Ruoxi my woman a long time ago by using my pawn, Lin Kun. I wouldn’t have been coldly stabbed by her, and wouldn’t have been pushed to the point of taking such a risk.” Xu Zhihong spoke very calmly, but every word contained anger and anybody could tell how he felt.
