"I understand, I will give the order..."
With a livid face, Jing Zhe's tone softened.
But Cui Yu wouldn't let it go once he was in the right.
"I want you to personally oversee and handle this!"
In his view, only if Jing Zhe kept a close eye on this matter would those below dare not take it lightly.
If he personally takes action, he should be able to find Xue Ling's whereabouts in just a few hours.
Enraged to the extreme, Jing Zhe actually laughed. He softened his tone and said calmly, "Cui Yu, do you know how many people in Country D are waiting for me to rescue them? I haven't slept for almost 48 hours."
Do you think I would release thousands of hostages for the sake of Cui Xueling? Don't you have any sense of what's more important?
Cui Yu sneered, "Those are all strangers who have nothing to do with you. How could they be more important than your niece? They went to Country D on their own initiative. If something happened, they only have themselves to blame!"
It's unprecedented and likely that no one has ever been this selfish.
Jing Zhe's smile widened. "So, you think only your sister's life is valuable, while everyone else's lives are worthless, right?"
Put yourself in her shoes. You're so anxious about Cui Xueling's disappearance. She's just missing and might not be in any danger, but those innocent citizens of Country D have been genuinely kidnapped!
Do you know how anxious their families were? I really want to know, if your family were also in danger in Country D, would you still have the nerve to say such chilling things?
Cui Yu remained silent with a cold face; what did it matter to him whether others lived or died?
Jing Zhe scoffed, "Go back. I'll let you know if there's any news. Cui Yu, my tolerance has its limits. Don't wait until you've used up all your credit points to regret it. Cui Xueling may be my niece, but to me, your Cui family is truly... worthless!"
This last sentence is laced with threat.
This means he is already angry.
Cui Yu also knew the importance of knowing when to stop while he was ahead.
He did not intend to anger Jing Zhe, but Xue Ling's whereabouts were currently unknown, so he had no choice but to resort to this tactic.
The consequence of loving someone too much is that you will disregard the consequences and risk everything for that person.
"Thank you, Minister Jing. You've worked hard. Remember, you only have Xue Ling as your niece!"
After giving a slight bow in thanks, Cui Yu didn't leave Jing Zhe's office without turning his head.
Behind him, Jing Zhe's gaze followed him like a shadow, a constant thorn in his back.
A meaningful smile played on his lips as he dialed Fei Mo's number.
"Did you send people to kidnap Cui Xueling?"
"Is there a problem?"
Fei Mo did not deny it.
"You brat, you should at least have informed me before you acted. That little bastard Cui Yu has come to my door."
Now, Jing Zhe's face was full of smiles, completely different from his previous slight anger, as if something good was about to happen.
"Judging from your tone, you're in a good mood. It seems the matter has been perfectly resolved. Since it's already resolved, why bother calling me? It's redundant and a waste of time. I'm hanging up."
Fei Mo hung up the phone immediately.
"You little rascal... you'll get what's coming to you from now on!"
Rolling his eyes, Jing Zhe dialed the internal line and instructed the secretary-general to come in.
"How's that project at the Cui family's place going lately?"
"We have already invested 30 billion yuan and are currently applying for a 20 billion yuan loan from the bank, which should be approved soon."
The secretary answered truthfully.
"Have the bank hold off on the loan, and spread the news that Cui Yu caused a scene at the Presidential Palace."
Three hours later, inform Cui Qianhe about Cui Xueling's situation in Country D. If Cui Yu requests to go to Country D, you should arrange it. After Cui Yu leaves, edit the video and release it.
Pointing to the location of the surveillance camera, Jing Zhe gave the instructions.
