Chapter 414: Negotiations
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Song Fan’s gaze was cold, devoid of any emotion. She had understood everything that had transpired moments ago. These two individuals had collaborated with “Miss Meng” to kidnap her, but now they had second thoughts. They intended to extort the ransom themselves and make a hefty profit at Miss Meng’s expense.
Xiao Xu was an unscrupulous person, driven by lust and with a twisted mind. However, Brother Chen seemed to have some intelligence. Song Fan had formulated a plan by now.
Xiao Xu had picked up a broom nearby, and the dust kept falling off it as he continuously trembled. He was shaking and stammering, “Brother Chen, what do we do? She’s awake, she’s seen our faces, she…
Brother Chen, however, remained much calmer. He snatched the broom from Xiao Xu and threw it on the ground, disdainfully saying, “Hmph, she’s tied up. What are you afraid of? Besides, she’s just a little girl. Weren’t you talking about tearing up the ransom just now? Coward.”
Xiao Xu scolded, didn’t dare to retort, and simply took a couple of steps back.
Brother Chen approached and said, “Miss Song, we’re only after the money. I’ll remove the tape from your mouth, but don’t make a sound.”
Song Fan nodded slightly, her eyes still devoid of emotion. The tape was carefully peeled off by Brother Chen, causing her skin to hurt. But she endured the pain and continued to stare coldly at the two men. She then slowly sat up.
“Is she mute?” Xiao Xu, seeing her silence, cautiously approached.
Brother Chen, somewhat puzzled, also looked at her and asked, “Miss Song?”
“Yes,” Song Fan replied softly. “Who instructed you to kidnap me? Does that person have a grudge against you?” 𝔣𝔯𝖊𝔢𝖜𝔢𝔟𝖓𝖔𝔳𝔢𝖑.𝔠𝖔𝔪
At her words, Xiao Xu, trembling like a sieve, was once again frightened. However, mustering some courage, he said, “Why are you saying that?” Song Fan gently shifted her body, adjusting to a more comfortable position as she leaned against the bed. “The car accident and the gunfire you witnessed earlier. Do I need to say more about how dangerous the situation around me
As she spoke, the faces of the two men opposite her grew increasingly pale. Having dared to handle Song Fan and Gu Chen in such a way in A City meant that the opposing force was formidable. This wasn’t just some ordinary kidnapping for ransom; it involved taking lives directly, and many lives at that.
Seeing the expressions on their faces, Song Fan continued nonchalantly,
“Kidnapping me has offended the Song family. The Song family’s status in A City doesn’t need further explanation from me. And did you not see the many foreigners among the people protecting me today? Aside from the Gu family, Brown Group also collaborates with me. Whether driven by personal feelings or interests, they will surely find you.”
Listening to her words, Xiao Xu was already trembling like a sieve. “Brother
Chen, what she said seems true. I’ve seen many news reports saying she has an inappropriate relationship with that blonde guy.”
Rolling her eyes internally at his comment, Song Fan didn’t correct him. The more misunderstandings, the better in this situation.
“No, why don’t we just kill her? Once we have the money, we’ll kill her. She has seen our faces.” Xiao Xu, recalling a similar scene from a movie, hurriedly suggested, “Yes, as long as we get the money, we kill her. Once she’s dead, we have nothing to worry about.”
Brother Chen initially didn’t want to kill Song Fan, but her words did instill fear in him. Offending so many influential people, they were undoubtedly just pawns, and either way, one of them would end up dead.
However, Song Fan wasn’t afraid; instead, she smiled.
Xiao Xu forcefully slammed the table nearby, “What are you laughing at? You’re on the brink of death!”
“Laughing at how foolish you are. I’ve said it before, the person who holds a grudge against you is the reason you were sent to kidnap me.” Song Fan looked at the two men with a playful smile. “You’re unfamiliar with that person, right? You don’t know her, but she knows about you. Some people, despite not lacking money, choose to kidnap me with the sole purpose of ensuring my death.”
Her voice was gentle as if narrating a story, but the content was chilling. “Once
I’m dead, the murderer will be pursued. The ones who kidnapped me will be the culprits, and since you can’t provide evidence of being hired, it’s just your word against theirs. Who do you think will end up dead? Meanwhile, the true mastermind remains scot-free.’
Glancing at the pink bow hanging on Brother Chen’s keychain, she speculated that he likely had a child at home. She continued, “And for her to prevent any loose ends, she’ll undoubtedly take your lives, your family’s lives and even your children won’t be spared.”
By now, Xiao Xu’s eyes had turned red; he couldn’t find words to argue. He wanted to refute it, but deep down, he knew Song Fan was right.
Brother Chen, gripping the keychain tightly, took a deep breath before asking, “I never intended for you to die from the beginning.. So, what do you want?”
