Destined Wife: The Apple of My Eye-Chapter 401 Childhood Sweetheart 8
Chapter 401 Childhood Sweetheart 8
One minute ago, Zhao Ying suddenly found that Chen Xiaopang was caught by a makeup clown in his arms. Chen Xiaopang wanted to turn his head to beat the clown, but was covered his mouth tightly. Zhao Ying was frightened. She ran away and called Wang Cailian.
But when she ran over, she found that the people were crowded together, and she couldn’t see Wang Cailian at all.
“Why is there one more child?” The man who had caught Chen Xiaopang grabbed her.
Zhao Ying was frightened to cry and was caught before she could make a sound, being taken out of the restaurant with her mouth covered. She was horrified to see that Chen Xiaopang was motionless, and then a strange smell came into her nose. She felt her head become heavier and heavier...
“Why do you bring three kids?” The two men returned to the car, and the companion who drove was startled to see so.
The one who had caught Chen Xiaopang said, “Don’t bring this girl. Just bring this little boy.”
“Why should we bring this little fat boy?” The other man said, “Our goal is the Little Master of Tang Family. We shall find a place to discard the two children.”
“Don’t!” The companion squeezed Chen Xiaopang’s face, “One child died a few days ago where my Second Aunt lives, but the buyer has already paid. I can let her take this little fat child out to make the deal.”
He glanced at Zhao Ying, “This little girl looks so beautiful. If it weren’t for that those buyers recently all want to buy boys, she could be sold for a good price.”
The car quickly left the amusement park. After driving one hour, the car was on the arterial road. After driving for another while, Zhao Ying was discarded beside a grove. Zhao Ying rolled from the hillside into the grove.
“Cailian? What’s the matter?” Chen Qing rushed to the police station after answering the phone call, having no time to have the meeting. Why had the children only gone to the amusement park and been missing?
Wang Cailian’s makeup was smudged. Her hair was also dishevelled. She started to cry when she saw him come in.
“Chen Qing! I... It’s my fault. I... I lost the children. Ah ah...”
Seeing his wife almost cry to be breathless, Chen Qing didn’t dare to complain anything. He helped her sit down and listened to the police about the general situation.
“Do you mean, the children in our family were involved in the trouble?” Chen Qing was stunned after hearing it.
The police said that the other party kidnapped with a purpose and the target was the Little Master of the second branch of Tang Family. But they didn’t know why Chen Xiaopang and Zhao Ying had also been taken away. They estimated that the two children might have seen something.
“What about now?” Chen Qing had no time to complain about Tang Family but asked, “Did the kidnapper call? What is needed?”
The police hadn’t spoken yet, and the inner office door opened. A man and a woman came out, surrounded by group of people. They both were good-looking. The woman was elegant, but her face was obviously pale and she couldn’t hide the panic in her eyes.
“Mr. Tang, Mrs. Tang!” Chen Qing knew who they were and rushed over, “What do the kidnappers want? Have they contacted you?”
Bai Susu’s eyes became cold, and then she thought of something, “You are the parent of those two children?”
“Yes! My son and my friend’s daughter were taken away.”
Chen Xiaopang was awakened by the bumps. His first reaction was that his hands and feet hurt. He tried to rub his eyes, but only to find that his hands were tied, as were his feet. He seemed to be on a small truck. The smell was very cloudy and stuffy.
“Zhao Ying!” His eyes brightened, and then darkened.
The child beside him was not Zhao Ying but a little boy. The little boy seemed to be awaken too, who moved and turned around.
“Are you Tang Cao in Class One?”
Tang Cao reacted at this moment and looked at him, “Do you know me?”
“I’m in Class Six.” Chen Xiaopang said and then he started to be afraid, “Have we been caught by the bad guys?”
Tang Cao glanced out of the car window. Rows of trees flashed by in front of his eyes.
“We must be out of town.” He tried to sit up.
Chen Xiaopang followed suit to sit properly, and asked in a sobbing tone, “How... How do you know it?”
“My sister had taught me to observe more when encountering things.” Tang Cao was a little proud, but thought that now was not the time to show off in an ostentatious manner, “You were involved in the trouble by me, for they had tried to kidnap me.”
The crowd separated his bodyguard from him and then he was caught. At the same time, a little boy was pushed to them by the crowd, who saw his head being covered by the clown and screamed, and then...
“Are we going to be sold into the mountains to be child brides...?” Chen Xiaopang cried softly, “I miss Mom and Dad.”
Tang Cao rolled his eyes, “We are boys, and even if we are going to be sold, we are going to be child...” He didn’t know what they should be called, and thought of a word, “Child husband.”
“Woo woo woo... I don’t want it!” Chen Xiaopang cried louder, “I want to go home...”
He suddenly remembered something and didn’t have time to cry but to look at the small cargo box where only Tang Cao and him two kids were, “Where is my sister? Why isn’t my sister in?”
“Your sister was caught, too?” Tang Cao was startled, “Are you sure?”
“I saw her be taken away with me.” Chen Xiaopang shivered in shock, “She... Has she been sold?”
Tang Cao didn’t know why this kid so stuck to the idea of being sold. Since he was also one of the students of Caesar, his family financial situation must have been good. How could he be so...stupid?
“They won’t sell us, but they will use us to demand the ransom.”
Chen Xiaopang was stunned, “Then... We shall still be sold, shan’t we?”
“...No, they will ask our families for the ransom. When your parents pay the ransom, they will let you go back.” As one of the top-level rich second generations, Tang Cao knew the routine of these kidnappers.
They all asked for money, and they rarely killed the hostages. And... Looking at the vehicle they were in, these people must be very poor. The more the situation was so, the higher their chance of being rescued was.
“Hum! Dare to kidnap me. I shall let my uncle to kill them later!”
Chen Xiaopang looked at the new friend who was called the school hunk was speaking the brave words, and he didn’t know why he was not so scared. He carefully moved towards Tang Cao’s side, “What shall we do now? And my sister, where did she go...”
“Mr. Chen, please rest assured. We will definitely find the children back. No matter what the kidnappers ask for, we will agree.” Bai Susu invited Chen Qing and Wang Cailian to go to a nearby hotel run by Tang Family and arranged a suite on the top floor.
Wang Cailian had been crying all the time, and Chen Qing knew that she was blaming herself. Holding her hand to comfort a few words, he turned to thank Bai Susu again.
“Thank you. I know you have more advantage than us on this matter. So, please!”
Bai Susu was a little surprised. She originally had thought that the couple would kick up a row, and even took the opportunity to raise a claim to her. But they were just very anxious. The wife had been crying all the time. Apparently the couple’s hearts were set on the children.
“Madam.” Her assistant handed her a pile of data.
Bai Susu calmly read it through, on which there was the information of Chen Family.
“Is there any news of the children?” Wang Cailian hurriedly asked.
Bai Susu asked the assistant to take the information away, “No.”
Seeing she didn’t say much, Wang Cailian wanted to ask more questions but was stopped by Chen Qing, who shook his head at her.
“My underlings are looking for them besides the police. The kidnappers haven’t called yet. I guess that they haven’t arrived in their place to rest.” Bai Susu calmly analyzed, “All we can do now is just waiting.”
Tang Cao and Chen Xiaopang felt that the car stopped slowly, and then the car door was opened.
The sunlight and fresh air poured in, but the two kids didn’t dare to move, lying with their backs to the door.
“They haven’t woken up yet.” There was a young man’s voice.
Tang Cao shook his head to hint himself awake.
So Tang Cao was taken out.
Chen Xiaopang was terrified, but he turned and shouted, “We are all awake!”
Then he heard Tang Cao say to the two people, “A straightforward person does not resort to insinuations. You ask for money, and we ask for lives. If you don’t hurt us, my family will pay the ransom.”
The younger man was amused, “You deserve to be a child of a rich family. You are good at persuading.”
“I’m just telling you the truth. You are only for money and don’t need to kill two kids. Besides, only if I go back alive, my family will not continue investigating. They will think that if they cannot find the kidnapper, it is OK for the children have been back. However, if we both die, it will be different. I am the only one boy in my family.”
Chen Xiaopang added, “I’m the only one boy in my family. No! What have you done to my sister? Where is my sister?”
“We discarded her on the road.” The middle-aged man said, “You should take care of yourself first.”
They certainly would not tell Chen Xiaopang that he was the one to be sold.
“Blindfold their eyes first.”
Then Chen Xiaopang and Tang Cao were carried on their backs. It was unknown how far the kidnappers had walked. During the process, they carried the kids in turn.
Finally they arrived at a place where those kidnappers put the kids down breathlessly. They didn’t forget to take off the handkerchiefs on their eyes.
“Let’s go. Go out for a meeting.”
Then they went out for a meeting.
Chen Xiaopang thought Tang Cao to be very awesome, so he was very dependent on Tang Cao. Hearing that there seemed to sound nothing happening, he whispered, “What should we do now?”
“Wait!” Tang Cao moved his feet, “They must go to discuss how much they want.”
Chen Xiaopang suddenly felt somewhat guilty, “Are they going to ask for a lot of money?”
“Well... I must be worth tens of millions of yuan anyway!” Little Master Tang set his own worth very high.
“Several tens of millions of yuan?” Chen Xiaopang was stunned. Although he didn’t know how much ten million was, it was definitely a lot.
The maximum number his dad occasionally had mentioned at ordinary times was millions. But several tens of millions of yuan... His family certainly didn’t have that much money. What could they do?
At this time, the door opened again.
The three men came in and took a few photos of the two kids.
Then the middle-aged man said to the person on the other side of the phone, “20 million. We shall immediately release them when we get the money.”
“Rest assured. We only ask for money, and we will not abuse them.”
“What? Three children?”
“Twenty million is the price of a child.”
“Sixty million? Well, you rest assured. We won’t abuse them.” 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎
“Want to see the children? Okay, wait a minute.”
The middle-aged man hung up the phone and said excitedly, “Hurry up and get back the girl before! Tang Family is willing to give a ransom for the three children!”
“Damn!”
60 million in total! These people were really rich! They would make a fortune! They would make a fortune!
