Chapter 211: Chapter 211: Promotion
At the entrance of the Tang Family Mansion, Hao Shuai took a deep breath, summoned all his courage, and finally walked into the hall. At this mont, seven or eight people were sitting in the hall, all heavyweights, including the Second-in-Command, Liu Hong.
However, seeing such a scene, Hao Shuai was overjoyed.
If Tang Xiao found out he was seeing his daughter and wanted to break them up, there was no need to gather so many people to watch, or even if it was an ordinary eting, Tang Xiao wouldn’t call him over.
After all, this was a high-ranking eting of the Celestial Wolf Gang, and how could he, a provincial branch leader, have the chance to participate?
The last possibility was that Tang Xiao had already regarded him as a high-ranking mber and was preparing to announce so important results.
Sure enough, when Tang Xiao saw Hao Shuai coming, he smiled and pointed to a seat nearby, saying, "Hao Shuai, sit here!"
Hao Shuai glanced at the seat and was shocked; that was the Four-In-Command seat. Even though the Four-In-Command had been taken down, the seat still holds a mysterious deterrent power.
This seat represents the power and prestige of the Celestial Wolf Gang.
"This...."
Hao Shuai hesitated for a mont, not knowing what Tang Xiao ant, as the happiness ca so quickly that he really couldn’t adapt to it.
"Sit down when I tell you to sit down; don’t dawdle."
Tang Xiao can’t stand that sort of dithering personality.
"Yes, Gang Leader."
Seeing Tang Xiao sowhat annoyed, Hao Shuai hurriedly walked over and then sat in the Four-In-Command’s seat.
After a round of discussions, everyone roughly understood Tang Xiao’s intent and dared not say much. After all, the position allocations were basically decided by Tang Xiao alone; others were only there to witness and actually had no say.
"What you see is what I intend to express. Hao Shuai is my daughter’s boyfriend and my future son-in-law. Does anyone have any objections to him sitting in the Four-In-Command’s seat?"
Tang Xiao was straightforward, which also shocked Hao Shuai beside him.
This was completely unexpected for him, although that was his plan too, but it ca too suddenly; they hadn’t even prepared.
"Wow...."
After a burst of amazent, everyone applauded. How could they dare to oppose? Wouldn’t that be going against Tang Xiao?
"Haha... Since no one has objections, from now on, Hao Shuai is our Four-In-Command. I hope everyone shows the appropriate respect and obedience. If I find anyone disobeying, hmph..... I’ll have to follow the rules."
When Tang Xiao said this, he glanced at the senior mbers with a stern expression, then suddenly turned amicable: "Haha, well, today Hao Shuai takes office; everyone should be happy. After all, the previous Four-In-Command went to jail, causing a painful ti for our gang. He won’t have died in vain; those two cops in South Sea City and that Chen Tianlong need to be eliminated."
Everyone took a deep breath and applauded one after another.
"Please advise and tolerate
in the future. I, Hao Shuai, will dedicate myself to making our Celestial Wolf Gang flourish." Hao Shuai stood up, showing his stance to everyone.
"Alright.... Tonight let’s have a banquet to celebrate; everyone should drink to their heart’s content." After Tang Xiao finished speaking, the eting ended, and everyone returned to their positions.
After everyone left, Tang Xiao didn’t keep Hao Shuai around to talk to him further.
Hao Shuai felt sothing was off but had no choice. This future father-in-law was his boss; what could he say?
Just after leaving the Tang Family Mansion, Hao Shuai’s phone suddenly rang. He was first stunned, then picked it up and saw that the call was from an unknown number.
Originally, he thought it was a wrong number and casually dismissed it.
But soon after, the number called again, making Hao Shuai frown slightly. He considered for a mont and then answered.
"Hello, who is this?"
"Hao Shuai, save !"
Just after Hao Shuai finished asking, a familiar voice ca from the other end of the call. It was clearly Tang Jingjing’s voice.
"Who are you? Why did you capture Tang Jingjing?"
After taking a deep breath, Hao Shuai asked calmly.
"Haha, who we are is not important. What’s important is, your girlfriend is with us. Smart people bring five million in cash. Don’t alert the police. And don’t tell anyone, or else..... That’s all I’ll say."
A sowhat hoarse male voice ca from the other end of the call.
"Alright.... Don’t harm her; I can give you the money. Where?"
Hao Shuai was a bit anxious but still kept his composure.
Tang Jingjing was his only hope. If sothing happened to her, his plan would be dood.
"Prepare the money first. I’ll call you when the ti cos. But the call might not be from this number. Kid, stay in line. If I find out there’s soone else with you, little missy won’t be the only one you have to worry about."
After leaving a harsh warning, the caller promptly hung up.
Obviously, this was a kidnapping case. The kidnappers had emphasized not letting anyone know and not bringing anyone with him. So, after pondering for a while, Hao Shuai started preparing the five million.
That afternoon, Hao Shuai ca out of the bank carrying a five million suitcase. Just a few steps away, his phone rang, and he hurriedly answered.
"Hao Shuai, bring the money now to Taihu District, old developnt area, an abandoned flour factory. Your little missy is there." The person on the other end sounded like using a voice changer; it felt like the sa person, but the voice kept changing, making Hao Shuai very curious.
"Alright, I understand."
Hao Shuai replied calmly.
After all, the gang kidnapped for money, which makes it easier; money was just trivial, as long as Tang Jingjing was unhard. He would still have a chance to turn the tables.
Although five million wasn’t a small amount, for soone like Hao Shuai, who had a long-term vision, five million was just a small sum.
Hao Shuai quickly drove towards the destination. He indeed was alone, without any subordinates. In a way, he was both brave and wise. In such situations, most people wouldn’t dare to act alone.
However, Hao Shuai’s mind was ticulous; he seed to have sensed sothing because the person setting this trap showed a flaw.
Firstly, Tang Jingjing was the young lady of the Celestial Wolf Gang. Presumably, the kidnappers would know her identity beforehand; otherwise, just asking for such an amount at the outset, if it was an ordinary family, how could they have five million for you? You boast but end up with nothing.
Secondly, daring to kidnap the daughter of the Celestial Wolf Gang leader, who is such an audacious person? If exposed, how does he plan to survive?
Perhaps he has money but won’t live to spend it.
Finally, why, when Tang Jingjing was kidnapped, was her first response to call him? Would Tang Jingjing tell the kidnappers, Hao Shuai is my boyfriend, you must call him?
Considering these points, Hao Shuai ca to a conclusion: This was a designed conspiracy.
However, this was just his own speculation, without a full certainty, Hao Shuai truly dared not act recklessly..
