The night was as dark as ink, and Qin Zheng's heartbeat seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand. He was unable to breathe or struggle, and he tightly grasped the telephone receiver to his ear.
"Qin Zheng, your woman is in my hands now."
On the phone, Ning Jinqiu's voice was low and old, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth: "If you want her to be safe, you have to exchange all the projects in your hands."
Qin Zheng closed his eyes tightly.
Afterwards, he said calmly, "Uncle Ning, this is not moral."
"Morality?"
Ning Jinqiu laughed out loud.
"I've said it before, if you let me go, you're just letting a tiger go back to the mountains. What is morality? Moreover, I've released your son and daughter. Isn't that moral enough? In the business world, people are scheming against each other and fighting without bloodshed. Morality is judged by money. Whoever has the ability is the most moral person!"
Qin Zheng: "Don't be impulsive. I can give you money, as much as you want."
"money?"
Ning Jinqiu sneered: "I, Ning Jinqiu, have never lacked money. What I want is power!"
"Qin Zheng, I want all the projects in your hands, otherwise, you will never see your woman again."
Bang! There was a loud bang on the phone.
Qin Zheng's brows sank, "Don't touch her."
"ha……"
Ning Jinqiu sneered in response.
Ning Jinqiu's tone was nonchalant, like a cat playing with a mouse, and he said condescendingly: "Don't worry, I am a very moral person and I won't hit a woman. Besides, I just want the project you have and I'm not interested in your woman. You are a smart person, you should understand what I mean, right?"
Qin Zheng's voice trembled slightly, "Ning Jinqiu..."
Pop.
Ning Jinqiu hung up the phone.
Ye Yun was held hostage by Ning Jinqiu as roughly as if she were a chicken, and stepped into a black car on the side of the road.
The atmosphere in the car was depressing and suffocating. Ning Jinqiu's eyes were as sinister and cruel as an old snake. His fingers tapped lightly on the steering wheel, as if tapping on Ye Yun's fragile nerves.
"Mrs. Qin, tell me, who is more important, you or the project he has in his hands?"
Ye Yun snorted coldly.
She was too lazy to answer.
She glanced at Qiangzi who was holding her hostage. She narrowed her eyes slightly, and a look of deep disgust emerged in her eyes: "Uncle Ning, you have been a chess piece next to us for a long time."
Ning Jinqiu also snorted coldly, "You don't really think Qiangzi is a simple-minded person, do you?"
Ye Yun said: "I was wrong."
Ning Jinqiu also said: "You and Qin Zheng are good in every way except that you are soft-hearted. Listen to my advice, the business world is like a battlefield, and the biggest enemy is a soft heart. If you are soft-hearted, you will be the one to die!"
Ye Yun: “…”
The black car sped through the night and arrived at a pier. Ning Jinqiu got out of the car, and Qiangzi also got out of the car carrying Ye Yun and threw her onto a huge ship.
"Mrs. Qin, where do you think I'm going to take you?"
Ning Jinqiu was standing on the deck, smoking a cigarette and holding the railing. His black windbreaker was rustling in the sea breeze.
Ye Yun looked away in disgust.
Ning Jinqiu grabbed her chin, forced her to look directly at his face, and said while exhaling smoke: "I'm going to take you to the high seas. You know, killing people is not against the law on the high seas."
Ye Yun's eyebrows twitched.
"If you really kill me, Qin Zheng will not let you go."
"I believe Qin Zheng will come to save you." Ning Jinqiu said immediately with an arrogant smile, "Do you think I will give him a chance to avenge you?"
Ye Yun was furious, "You are despicable!"
"I didn't touch your daughter and son. You and Qin Zheng are both adults. It was an adult game. You lost. Why should I be despicable?"
Ning Jinqiu laughed again after he finished speaking.
The cold wind blew up the hair on his forehead, and the cigarette in his hand flickered, like half of his face melting into the darkness.
The big ship slowly set sail.
Time seemed to slow down at this moment, and every second seemed like torture.
Ning Jinqiu called Qin Zheng again.
"Qin Zheng, I'm waiting for you here." Ning Jinqiu's voice echoed in the night sky, with a hint of provocation and arrogance.
Ye Yun stared coldly at everything in front of her.
Standing in the cold and damp sea breeze, she looked at the city that was getting farther and farther away in her sight, and her thin figure gradually merged into the darkness...
