Su Yayan and Huo Chenhuan looked at each other, not surprised.
It was impossible for them to believe that there was nothing fishy about the matter.
However, compared to the sudden stupidity of the person in front of them, the two of them were obviously more willing to believe that there was a shaful mastermind behind all of this.
“Who is it?”
The woman looked up and t Huo Chenhuan’s extrely cold eyes. She shivered and whispered, “It’s… it’s Eldest Young Master.”
The Eldest Young Master was what the old servants in the old residence called Huo Qihan.
Even after Huo Chenhuan’s parents passed away, Huo Chenhuan took over the old residence and parted ways with Huo Qihan. This title had never changed.
To Su Yayan and Huo Chenhuan, this answer was unexpected but reasonable.
“What did he ask you to do?”
“He asked to find an opportunity to smuggle the young master out and hand him over. As soon as I could accomplish this, he—”
“He would pay you?”
“Right.”
“How much?”
“Five… five million.”
Su Yayan sneered. “You kidnapped my son for five million. This deal is really worth it.”
When Uncle Zhang and the others heard Su Yayan’s words, they looked at the woman with disdain and disappointnt.
Most of the people who could stay in the old residence had been working in the Huo Chenhuan family since Huo Chenhuan’s parents’ generation. Most of these people had been indebted to Huo Chenhuan’s parents.
Moreover, even during Huo Chenhuan’s most difficult period, he had never mistreated them at all. Therefore, most of them were very loyal and would not cause any trouble under normal circumstances.
To them, people like won who sold their owners’ hos for a little money were no different from traitors.
Not to ntion that the target of her attack was the young master whom they treated like an eyeball. He was simply crazy!
Seeing everyone’s guarded gazes, the woman panicked and begged loudly, “Young Master, Young Madam, I really have no choice but to do this immoral thing. My son gambles and is in debt. If he doesn’t pay those people back, they’ll chop off his fingers and beat him to death! My husband died early, leaving with only this son. I really can’t watch him be beaten to death.”
The woman sniffled and cried pitifully. “It just so happened that Eldest Young Master found and asked to help him secretly bring Little Young Master out. I thought that no matter what, Eldest Young Master was still Little Young Master’s uncle and would definitely not hurt Little Young Master, so I agreed to Eldest Young Master’s request and helped him do this.”
“Enough. Do you think that he’s the baby’s uncle and won’t do anything to the baby? Or do you think that as long as you finish this job, you can get the money, and as long as you have the money, your son can pay off his debts and not have his fingers chopped off?”
The woman did not expect Su Yayan to expose her true thoughts. She avoided her gaze for a mont, but she quickly cald down and said sadly, “Young Madam, I was desperate and had no choice. That’s why I did such a thing in a mont of confusion. Little Young Master is fine now. Please spare this ti.”
It would have been better if she hadn’t said that. As soon as she ntioned this, Su Yayan was filled with anger. She was so angry that she stepped forward and kicked her to the side.
“You’re desperate? You want to use my son as a sacrifice in exchange for your son’s safety? You’re not worthy!”
