Jiang Yu screamed in terror, "Ahhh—!"

A loud bang!

Jiang Shuo's car crashed into the front of the kidnappers' car, leaving it completely mangled.

The airbags deployed, protecting Jiang Yu.

Jiang Shuo's forehead was bleeding from the impact, marking his second injury. Despite feeling dizzy, he got out of the car and called Gu Shiyi, but only spoke on speakerphone.

Jiang Shuo staggered toward the kidnappers' car.

"I'm so sorry, is anyone injured? I've called an ambulance, and we'll go to the hospital together later. I'll pay for your medical expenses, the car repairs, and also your emotional distress compensation. How about one million?"

Jiang Shuo deliberately spoke slowly and inflated the amount of compensation to arouse the other party's greed, thus delaying the time.

The kidnappers were cursing and swearing inside the car.

"Damn it! Sixth Brother, how the hell do you drive?"

"My head is all broken!"

"Boss, the car behind us is catching up quickly, what do we do now?"

Only the driver saw Jiang Shuo and heard his words.

"You want to pay us one million?"

The car fell silent instantly upon hearing this.

The five kidnappers exchanged glances, and one of them whispered, "Where did this idiot come from?"

"Boss, that kid's got money to burn. He can throw around a million dollars like that. Why don't we take him with us? Once we've finished our mission, we can slaughter this fat sheep, okay?"

The others also showed expressions of agreement.

The man referred to as the boss nodded and said, "Bring him up!"

Immediately, a bald man got out of the car and walked towards Jiang Shuo.

"Brother, someone in our car is seriously injured and can't wait for the ambulance. They need to be taken to the hospital immediately. Come with us."

Upon hearing this, a cold glint flashed in Jiang Shuo's eyes.

"There's another injured person in my car who can't move; she needs to go to the hospital too..."

"There's one more person?"

The bald man seemed to see another million dollars and walked towards Jiang Shuo's car.

When Jiang Yu saw Jiang Shuo bring the kidnappers over, her face turned deathly pale, her eyes filled with fear. Just as the kidnappers were about to open the car door, she suddenly climbed into the driver's seat, started the engine, and reversed away.

The bald man nearly tripped and fell, but after regaining his balance, he turned around angrily: "What's going on?"

Jiang Shuo lowered his eyes to hide the coldness in them, his hands clenched into fists at his sides.

"She probably wants to live alone."

The bald man knew it was a woman. Seeing the bandage wrapped around the man's forehead, he patted him on the shoulder: "A woman like this will behave after a few slaps when we get back. Come on, get in the car with me..."

"Hmm—"

Jiang Shuo let out a muffled groan and collapsed to the ground.

The bald man was stunned.

He looked at his hand. Had he not used any force?

At this moment, a man called Lao Liu got out of the car and asked, "Brother Qiang, what are you up to? Get in the car and let's go."

The bald man shouted, "Sixth Brother, come over here and give this kid a hand, lift him into the car."

Lao Liu and the bald man carried Jiang Shuo together, but after only a few steps, Gu Shiyi's car arrived. The two of them immediately abandoned Jiang Shuo and tried to get in the car and leave quickly.

But Jiang Shuo suddenly opened his eyes, rolled over, and then swept his long legs across.

Caught off guard, Lao Liu and Baldy fell in front of the van.

"Damn it!"

They've been tricked!

But it was too late.

Taking advantage of the situation, the kidnapper leader grabbed the child and got out of the car, fleeing to a nearby department store.

Gu Shiyi chased after him alone.

The others then fought with the other four kidnappers.

At the same time, Du Wei drove to the scene and saw Gu Shiyi run into the mall. He glanced at the Fourth Young Master and quickly chased after him.

Gu Yunzhen glanced at the department store and knew that there were two entrances.

After dealing with the four kidnappers, Gu Yunzhen ordered: "Send people to guard both the front and back gates. No one is allowed to enter or leave. Keep everyone inside where they are. Afterwards, each person will be given a thousand yuan as compensation."

"Yes, Fourth Young Master."

One person was given the order to enter the mall and find the mall's broadcasting room.

Soon, an announcement came over the loudspeaker: "Dear customers, our mall is currently conducting an observation activity. Please stay where you are and do not move around. After the activity ends, each person will receive a prize of 1,000 yuan. If you leave the mall, you will forfeit the prize. Thank you for your cooperation!"

The entire mall was immediately stunned!

"What's going on?"

"Can I get a 1,000 yuan bonus just by staying in the same place?"

"Holy crap! Can I call my friend to come along now?"

Regardless of whether it's possible or not, some people have already called their family, friends, and classmates.

Shangguan Wu stood at the mall entrance and heard the announcement. He had no objection, since revealing the truth would only cause panic among the people in the mall, especially the parents with children. They cared more about their children's safety than money and would definitely make a fuss about leaving the mall.

Of course, Jiang Yu is an exception.

On the way there, Shangguan Wu saw Jiang Yu driving away, after Du Wei reminded him.

She didn't believe Jiang Yu was going to call for reinforcements.

Her son and younger brother were both here, yet Jiang Yu left alone. It seems that in her eyes, only she herself is the most important!

Shangguan Wu shook his head speechlessly.

She hadn't even done anything yet, but Jiang Yu had already ruined herself step by step. She was truly beyond saving.

It's just that poor Xiao Bao has suffered.

The shopping mall is neither too big nor too small, with five floors and more than two hundred shops.

Only Gu Shiyi and Du Wei were inside, and they found an opportunity.
