Chapter 144 Call Him

Xu Chunian felt a chill, "Then why did you stop me from coming out?"

Lan Xin was also a little confused. "Actually, I don't like this circle at all. Those people are sycophantic and snobbish. Sometimes I cater to them and am willing to do anything, but before it was just some small things. Now that I think about it carefully, I feel it is terrible."

Xu Chunian was silent for a moment, "Do you like Jiang Huaixu?"

"I can't really explain it. Sometimes I like him very much, and sometimes I feel that someone like Huai Xu should only be looked up to." Lan Xin lowered her eyes. "If it were in the past, I would not have hurt innocent people for a man."

"Actually, I don't like it here." Lan Xin stared at the dripping water in the corner in a daze. "When I was a kid, I would only wear new clothes during the Chinese New Year. Even though I have new clothes to wear every day now, I can't be happy at all."

On the surface, they were giving her advice, but in fact, they were laughing at her behind her back, laughing at her for being a country girl, laughing at her for being a toad wanting to eat swan flesh, and asking her to kidnap Xu Chunian just to laugh at her.

"But I can't. I have to stay here." Lan Xin sighed, "If I leave, what will happen to Dad's illness?"

Before Xu Chunian could say anything, Lan Xin burst into tears, "What should I do now? What if I'm killed and my parents can't see me? What if my dad gets sicker when he hears that I'm dead? There will only be my mom and my brother left, wuwuwu."

Xu Chunian: "..."

The mood changed quite quickly.

With a "bang", the door was pushed open and light poured into the dim warehouse.

"Why are you crying?"

Lan Xin was so scared that she hid behind Xu Chunian.

The three kidnappers walked up to Xu Chunian and asked, "Are you Qin Yuan's lover?"

Xu Chunian straightened his back and said, "Brother, you got the wrong person. I know him, but not very well."

The kidnapper scoffed and threw a stack of photos in front of her, "No?"

The stack of photos scattered on the ground was something Xu Chunian had seen on Jiang Huaixu's phone.

Lan Xin secretly came out to take a look, and quietly approached Xu Chunian, "Didn't you say you don't like him?"

Xu Chunian was speechless, "That was a borrowed position."

The kidnapper raised the kitchen knife in his hand and said, "I don't care if you borrow money or a seat from me. You should call Qin Yuan right now and ask him to pay off the debt. Otherwise..."

Otherwise he said nothing.

Xu Chunian took the phone he handed over and just as she pressed a number, the man gestured with a kitchen knife in front of her and said, "Don't play tricks."

Xu Chunian's hands trembled slightly as she dialed a string of numbers.

The phone rang for a while before being picked up.

"Hello, Mr. Jiang is in a meeting. I will call you back later if you have any questions."

"It's me."

"Madam?" The assistant was stunned for a moment, "Please wait a moment."

The kidnapper hung up the phone and put the knife to her neck, "Isn't your last name Qin? Why is it Mr. Jiang?"

Xu Chunian looked up at him and said, "Brother, this number is from Qin Yuan's company. It's usually handled by CEO Jiang."

The man was skeptical and didn't seem to understand.

At this time, the phone rang. Xu Chunian picked it up and said quickly, "I'm looking for Qin Yuan."

There was silence for a moment, followed by a slight hum.

"Are you sick? You owe people their wages. You are a leader in the underworld. You are an evil capitalist. You owe people their hard-earned money!"

Xu Chunian spoke loudly, and the kidnapper gave her an approving look.

"You must pay the money back immediately, otherwise... otherwise you will never see me again in your life!"

"Don't call the police!" The kidnapper gestured with the knife in his hand twice, "Bring the money to the warehouse on the outskirts of the city. I won't hurt her at all, otherwise..."

Jiang Huaixu's voice was tense, "Don't hurt her, I'll give you as much as you want."

"Pay off the debt! I don't want a penny more!" The kidnapper was a little excited.

"Okay, I'll give it back to you. Can I say one more word to her?"

"explain!"

"Xu Chunian." If you listen carefully, you can hear his voice trembling slightly.

"Um?"

"Don't be afraid, I'll be there soon."

Xu Chunian choked up a little and almost burst into tears, "I'll wait for you."

The kidnapper's eyes flashed and he decisively hung up the phone.
