Chapter 308 Notice
Su Xiangwan's heart sank when she heard the man say that.
It seems that these people are not only after money, but may even be deliberately targeting them.
It's unclear whether they're after the Gu family or the Su family.
Thinking of this, Su Xiangwan looked at Xu Yirou, who was being held captive by two people.
He tried speaking again, saying, "In that case, shouldn't we at least leave someone to deliver the message? Let's release her! She's not a member of the Gu family, keeping her around is useless and only requires more manpower and trouble."
When Xu Yirou heard Su Xiangwan say that, her heart stirred, and she looked up at her, meeting her calm eyes.
The two did not speak, but many words were conveyed to each other in that instant.
The man in the lead hesitated for a moment after hearing Su Xiangwan's words.
"Brother Cheng." Just as he was about to speak, a man came out of the alley and whispered a few words in the ear of Cheng Xiong, the man in the lead.
After listening to that person's words, Cheng Xiong chuckled, glanced at Xu Yirou with an unfriendly gaze, and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Su, we can't let this Miss Xu Yirou go either. Who told her to... offend someone she shouldn't have?"
Without further ado, he gestured to the crowd and said, "Take them all away. Also, leave a note in the car and tell the Gu family to prepare the ransom."
"sister in law."
Gu Yanfei asked Su Xiangwan with her eyes whether she should take action.
“Miss Gu, I advise you not to act impulsively.” Cheng Xiong snorted coldly, pulled a gun from his pocket, waved it in front of Su Xiangwan and the other two, and said, “I know Miss Gu has practiced martial arts since she was a child, but no matter how good your skills are, they can’t withstand bullets! Besides, your sister-in-law is pregnant. If something happens to the baby in her belly because of your impulsive actions, it won’t be good!”
Upon hearing Cheng Xiong's words, Gu Yanfei was startled and indeed dared not make a move again.
Cheng Xiong was right. Putting aside the fact that there were more than a dozen of them, they were indeed men.
Even if she were to take action, she wouldn't stand a chance.
Once they start fighting, if Su Xiangwan's stomach is even slightly touched, she will regret it for the rest of her life.
Not to mention, Cheng Xiong actually had a gun.
All three of them instantly lost their will to resist and obediently allowed Cheng Xiong's men to take them away.
More than half an hour after they were taken away, Wang Zhengyu, lying in a pool of blood, was not discovered.
While he was being rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment, the Gu and Su families also received the news.
"Bang!" Father Gu slammed his hand on the table, his face ashen as he stared at the note demanding money for ransom.
Who would have thought that someone could be so arrogant?
In broad daylight, they dare to stop cars and rob people on the street.
Do these people even have any regard for the law?
"Who are these people? How dare they kidnap Xiang Wan and the others even though they know who they are!"
"Jianguo, the most important thing now is to rescue Xiangwan and the others. Xiangwan is pregnant! Putting aside whether those people will hurt her, she can't take this kind of torment!" Gu's mother reminded herself repeatedly that crying now would not do any good.
But just thinking about her daughter-in-law and daughter now in the hands of those bandits, and who knows how much suffering they would have to endure, made her unable to hold back her tears.
"relatives by marriage!"
Just then, the sound of rapid footsteps came.
Mr. and Mrs. Su rushed over anxiously, their faces pale, and asked, "Father-in-law, what happened? I heard from the housekeeper that Xiang Wan and the others have been kidnapped by bandits?"
Without saying much, Mr. Gu handed the note to Mr. Su and said, "We just received the news. We don't know if they're targeting the Gu family or the Su family."
"If they're after the Su family, that's fine; we'll just agree to their demands and give them the money directly. But if they're after the Gu family..."
Hearing what Gu's father said, Su's father also fell silent.
Gu's father's thinking was correct; if it was aimed at the Su family.
At most, they came because they knew he was the richest man in Shanghai and wanted to make some money.
What they have no shortage of is money, as long as they can guarantee that Su Xiangwan and the others won't be harmed.
Even if we give them a sum of money, it won't be a problem.
But……
If the other party is targeting the Gu family, asking for money would just be a side effect.
That would be a real problem.
"Since that's the case..."
Just then, Su Xiangbei's voice came: "Let's prepare for both scenarios. We'll give you the money, but we must also call the police..."
"Call the police?"
Upon hearing Su Xiangbei's words, Su's father frowned. To be honest, he didn't really agree with calling the police.
What if word gets out?
"Instead of calling the police, let's just let the military handle it!"
Father Gu spoke first.
His son is currently on a mission, but now his wife has been kidnapped.
If even the personal safety of military families cannot be guaranteed, how can soldiers fight on the front lines with peace of mind?
With that in mind, Gu's father dialed Huo Chang'an's number without hesitation.
"Nation-building?"
When Huo Chang'an heard who was calling, he was taken aback and asked, "Is there something wrong?"
Huo Chang'an knew his nephew Gu Jianguo very well; he was completely different from that scoundrel Gu Jianjun.
If a phone call comes in at this time, something must have happened.
"Uncle Huo, my daughters Xiang Wan and Yan Fei, along with their friend Xu Yirou, have been kidnapped!"
Without wasting any words, Gu's father went straight to the point and explained the matter simply and clearly.
When did this happen? Where?
Huo Chang'an's expression suddenly darkened.
Gu Yanxiao is now carrying out the most rigorous and dangerous missions for the country.
At this time, someone kidnapped his wife and sister. This was undoubtedly a provocation against the dignity of the national army and was unforgivable.
"Yes..." Father Gu explained the matter in detail.
After listening, Huo Chang'an said, "Jianguo, don't worry, I will find out Xiang Wan and the others' whereabouts as soon as possible and rescue them."
After saying that, Huo Chang'an hung up the phone and began arranging a rescue.
With Huo Chang'an's assurance, Gu's father was relieved.
With the military's intervention, Su Xiangwan and the others will surely be rescued as quickly as possible.
"Old Huo, you just said, who was kidnapped?"
Because he was in a very good mood, Old Master Shao, who had come out for a walk, went to have tea with Huo Chang'an and asked nervously.
Did he just hear the names of Su Xiangwan, Gu Yanfei, and his beloved granddaughter?
