Billionaire's Beloved Wife-Chapter 698: Hostage (3)

It was Sheng Yuanhang who wanted to kidnap them with violence, not him!

He was innocent!

Sheng Jing truly felt that if he were dragged into this mess because of Sheng Yuanhang, he wouldn’t let him off even as a ghost!

After careful consideration, Bo Xijue said, "Killing him would be troublesome. Now we have two important members of the Sheng family, both highly likely to become the next heir. It would be better to keep them as hostages to prevent the Sheng family from making any rash moves."

Sheng Jing: "???"

Why was he being included?

He was really innocent!

Sheng Jing quickly reminded, "Um, I have no hostility towards you, nor do I intend to oppose you!"

He couldn’t stay here as a hostage.

Otherwise, the inheritance of the Sheng family would fall into someone else’s hands.

All his years of effort and planning would be in vain.

Bo Xijue said calmly, "We have no hostility towards you either, but your family is hostile to us. To prevent such incidents from happening again, we’ll have to ask you to stay here for a while."

"Rest assured, your treatment will not be the same as his. You don’t need to worry about being treated like him."

Sheng Jing: "..."

No, he wasn’t reassured at all; he was extremely worried!

Hua Shifang and the others found Bo Xijue’s suggestion very feasible.

At least, by holding two potential heirs of the Sheng family in their hands, the Sheng family would have to think twice before causing them any trouble.

Sun Chan stroked his beard, "I think we should follow Xijue’s suggestion. It would be good to make the Sheng family wary."

Fu Yubai also nodded, "Yes, Senior Brother’s idea is thorough."

Hua Shifang said in a deep voice, "Then let’s do as Xijue said. This will prevent the Sheng family from endlessly disturbing us."

Bringing down the Sheng family wasn’t something that could be done overnight.

Even if they wanted to take revenge for being kidnapped, they couldn’t do it openly.

They had to be wary of the Sheng family’s power and prevent them from going all out against them.

Seeing his future darken, Sheng Jing hurriedly looked at Nan Yan, "Nan Yan, I have never harmed you, and I genuinely want to be friends with you!"

Qin Lu stepped forward with a blank expression, blocking Sheng Jing’s view of Nan Yan.

Don’t play the sympathy card.

What if his little girl softened her heart?

Qin Lu also found Bo Xijue’s plan feasible and didn’t want Sheng Jing to seek outside help.

Sheng Jing: "..."

Damn it.

Was he really going to be dragged down by Sheng Yuanhang and be left here as a prisoner?

Nan Yan tugged at Qin Lu’s sleeve, signaling him to stop blocking her view; she couldn’t see anyone else.

After Qin Lu stepped aside, Nan Yan thoughtfully said, "We need someone to send a message back to the Sheng family."

Sheng Jing’s expression lit up with hope, "Nan Yan..."

Before he could show his gratitude, Nan Yan pointed at Chen Fei, who had been standing beside Sheng Jing, and said, "You will go back and tell Sheng Mingtang that Sheng Yuanhang and Sheng Jing will be staying with us for a while. He should stay quiet and not cause any trouble. If the Sheng family sends anyone else next time, I will break their arms and send them back."
