Chapter 678: Chapter 680: Evil Not Yet Eradicated, Kidnapper Xu Kun (Part 1)
Recalling the ransom demand made by the kidnapper who had called her, Su Qinglan, this “尤物” Chairman, couldn’t help but struggle again in Lin Fei’s arms, “Lin Fei, let
go! I need to go, I need to go prepare the money for them.”
“No need, just stay here. Leave this matter to , I will make sure to bring Yingying back to you safe and sound.” On hearing Su Qinglan, this “尤物” Chairman ntion, the kidnappers who had called her earlier demanded a ransom of ten million. Lin Fei felt a surge of relief.
Since those kidnappers had demanded a ransom from Su Qinglan, the “尤物” Chairman, it was very likely they were after money. At the very least, one of the objectives of the kidnappers who had taken Xu Yingying was financial gain.
Thus, in order to coax Su Qinglan, the “尤物” Chairman, into obediently preparing the ransom, the kidnappers would at least not harm Xu Yingying in the short term.
Having confird this, Lin Fei was confident that with the intelligence capabilities of Thorny Rose, they could retrieve the girl before the kidnappers did anything to harm Xu Yingying.
“It’s not okay, I can’t be at ease! What if you can’t find the people who took Yingying? Anyway, they just want money, giving it to them should solve the problem. My phone, phone, give
my phone, I need to call Liu Yu to prepare the money.”
Lin Fei’s assured composure and promise to bring Xu Yingying back hadn’t succeeded in calming Su Qinglan, the “尤物” Chairman.
As a mother, Su Qinglan, the “尤物” Chairman, was unwilling to risk even the slightest chance of harm. She wanted to secure her daughter’s safety through the most reliable thod of paying the ransom.
“I can understand your feelings. If you really want to have Liu Yu prepare the ransom, I won’t oppose it. But have you considered this, Qinglan? Right now, we still don’t know the identities of the people who took Yingying. And most importantly, we are not sure if they really only want to extort so money from you by using Yingying. If that’s the case, then that’s the best outco. But if it’s not, then the issue won’t be resolved just by paying so money.”
“And most crucially, even if they really do intend to kidnap Yingying to extort money from you, who can guarantee that after you pay the ransom, they will definitely release Yingying? Even if they do release Yingying after receiving the ransom, who can guarantee that after they have squandered all the ransom money, they won’t think of kidnapping Yingying again to extort and blackmail you?!”
Lin Fei understood Su Qinglan, the “尤物” Chairman, and her concern for her daughter’s safety. However, based on his psychological understanding of the kidnappers, Lin Fei absolutely could not allow Su Qinglan, the “尤物” Chairman, to simply hope that paying the ransom would save Xu Yingying.
Having mingled in the rcenary World abroad for many years, Lin Fei had encountered similar kidnapping and extortion cases. Therefore, he knew all too well that simply hoping to pay the ransom would only embolden the kidnappers while causing endless future troubles!
People are greedy; after one successful risk, they think of a second.
Lin Fei had personally experienced similar situations abroad. As such, he definitely did not want a repeat to happen to Xu Yingying!
Regardless of who had taken Xu Yingying, the mont Lin Fei heard the news from Jiang Ying, he had already sentenced those who took Xu Yingying to death!
Moreover, it was to be an imdiate execution, which could not exceed twenty-four hours.
“Chairman Su, I think Lin Fei makes sense. Even for the sake of President Xu, we can’t just blindly comply with the kidnappers’ demands. Doing so would an being led by the nose, which is the lesser issue. In the end, we might not be able to save President Xu.”
As the senior assistant in charge of managing assets worth over two billion yuan in Xu Yingying’s stead, Jiang Ying had, after initial panic, listened to Lin Fei’s analysis and regained her composure. She also spoke up to dissuade Su Qinglan, the enchanting chairman, from placing all her hope on retrieving Xu Yingying by paying the ransom.
“What should we do then? If they don’t get the money, what if they harm Yingying?” Lin Fei and Jiang Ying’s consecutive persuasions hadn’t entirely convinced Su Qinglan, the enchanting chairman, to abandon the idea of calling her senior assistant and personal secretary Liu Yu to raise funds. “No, no, I need my phone, give
my phone, I—”
“Qinglan, calm down! Trust , I will bring Yingying back to you safe and sound. Right now, the only thing you need to do is stay calm. Also, make sure to contact a psychologist.”
After straightening up Su Qinglan’s slender shoulders, Lin Fei reassured her again that he would safely rescue Xu Yingying, while also reminding the enchanting chairman to arrange for a psychologist. So that once he rescued Xu Yingying, the girl could receive imdiate psychological counseling.
This was to prevent Xu Yingying from developing any psychological scars from this kidnapping ordeal.
“Actually, I could help by contacting mbers of the club. So of them are very powerful. If we ask for their assistance, it’s possible we could find out who took President Xu.”
While Lin Fei was still persuading and reassuring Su Qinglan, the calm and collected Jiang Ying spoke up in a tily manner, intending to contact so influential mbers of Che Wuya’s Club for help in the search and rescue of Xu Yingying.
“There’s no need for such trouble, I can get in touch with soone who can find Yingying in the shortest ti possible.” While rejecting Jiang Ying’s suggestion, Lin Fei signaled with his eyes for her to take the anti-swelling ointnt, “You help Qinglan apply so, I’ll step out to make a call.”
With that said, Lin Fei took Su Qinglan’s delicate hand and patted it reassuringly.
Then, Lin Fei left the office of Xu Yingying.
…
After leaving Xu Yingying’s office, Lin Fei took out his phone and called Xue i, the cold and enchanting woman.
Lin Fei was reluctant to let Jiang Ying contact the influential mbers of Che Wuya’s Club for help in searching for Xu Yingying, precisely because he was well aware that within Zhonghai, no one commanded an intelligence network more powerful than Xue i, the cold and enchanting woman.
And another reason was that Lin Fei didn’t want too many people involved in the search and rescue of Xu Yingying.
Because that would interfere with Lin Fei’s own plans for the kidnappers—the death sentence…
