Chapter 198 Kidnapping
After Mu Yuting arrived at the airport, he took the VIP channel. Manager Wang and two rows of black-clad bodyguards were already waiting there.
"Hello, Mr. Mu." Manager Wang greeted Mr. Mu respectfully when he saw him coming.
"Hello, Mr. Mu." Two rows of bodyguards also greeted in unison.
Mu Yuting glanced at Manager Wang, who looked to be about thirty years old, with a tall physique, small but bright eyes, and a very energetic look. It was indeed obvious that the person arranged by Ye Chen was no ordinary person.
"Hello, Manager Wang, you stay and let the others leave first." Mu Yuting glanced at the bodyguards around him and ordered.
Manager Wang was a little embarrassed. "Before you came, Master Ye Chen repeatedly told me that safety is the top priority."
Mu Yuting's face showed no change of expression. He had a strong aura and spoke in a cold voice, "A tall tree attracts the wind."
Manager Wang immediately understood what Mr. Mu meant and waved to the leading black-clad bodyguard to come over. "You guys go back to the hotel first."
"Yes, we'll wait for Master Mu's instructions."
The leading bodyguard in black bowed to Mu Yuting and waved his hand. The two rows of bodyguards in black got into two business cars and left.
Then Manager Wang drove Mu Shao and Mu Yuan out of the airport in a low-key Mercedes-Benz.
About ten minutes after leaving the airport, Manager Wang vigilantly noticed in the rearview mirror that there was a car following him.
"Mr. Mu, the car behind us has been following us since it appeared at the last fork in the road. Should we speed up to get rid of it?"
Mu Yuting snorted and chuckled. It seemed that Zhang Huaishan was well-informed. The Zhang family knew that he had arrived in the United States as soon as he got off the plane. Since the Zhang family was so eager to know his itinerary, he might as well cooperate with them to avoid notifying the Zhang family.
"Slow down a bit, don't let them lose us." Mu Yuting said calmly.
Manager Wang didn't understand what was going on, but when he saw Mu Shao's calm look through the rearview mirror, he instantly felt confident. Since Mu Shao made such arrangements, he must have his own plans. He just had to do as Mu Shao instructed.
Mu Yuan and Mu Yuting sat together in the back row.
He didn't understand Mu Shao's action at all. He endured it again and again, but when he couldn't bear it any longer, he simply said, "Mu Shao, why don't you get rid of them?"
Mu Yuting asked back, "Isn't it a good thing that someone cares about us?"
Mu Yuan didn't dare to speak anymore.
Mu Yuan and Manager Wang didn't know the situation, and they were definitely confused and nervous when they saw a car following them, but Mu Yuting knew very well that it was someone sent by the Zhang family, and he would not take any extreme action before seeing him.
But there was no way to explain this to them. In order to ease their tension, Mu Yuting simply started a chat with Manager Wang.
"Manager Wang, have you ever been a soldier?" Mu Yuting asked.
"Yes, Mr. Mu, how did you know? Did Young Master Ye Chen tell you?" Manager Wang's attention was also attracted by Mu Yuting's question.
"I guessed it." Mu Yuting said lightly.
"Mr. Mu, can you tell me how you guessed it?" Manager Wang became interested and asked.
"He has a military temperament." Mu Yuting answered simply and clearly.
People who have been trained in the army have an indescribable, unique temperament. Mu Yuting feels very familiar and close to this unique temperament of soldiers.
However, everyone knows that Mu Yuting is a big shot in the business world, but very few people know that he was a soldier, let alone serving in the special forces.
"Mr. Mu, have you also been a soldier?" Manager Wang blurted out, observing Mu Yuting's expression through the rearview mirror, looking forward to his answer.
Mu Yuting smiled but did not answer, "Look at the road, don't be distracted."
Manager Wang smiled embarrassedly. It turned out that his every move was under Mu Shao's eyes.
Only when we arrived at the hotel entrance did the car following us disappear.
After Mu Yuting arrived at the presidential suite on the top floor of the hotel, he immediately reported his safety to Xiao Nuan and Ye Chen, and then immediately got to work.
Manager Wang had been following him all the time. Seeing how devoted Mu Shao was to his work, he asked with concern, "Mu Shao, do you want to take a break first to get over the jet lag?"
"No need," Mu Yuting gestured for him to sit down, "Tell me about the situation here."
Manager Wang reported the current situation of the resort project to Mr. Mu in detail. What Manager Wang said was roughly the same as what he knew, with no major discrepancies.
After listening to this, Mu Yuting said methodically, "Before I came here, I asked you to make an appointment with Mr. John from G Company. What do you mean?"
Mr. John is the CEO of Company G. Mu Yuting plans to have a face-to-face meeting with him after arriving to test his attitude.
Manager Wang said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Mr. Mu, I couldn't make an appointment with him. His secretary said he's been out of the company for the past few days. But I don't think that's very credible. He must be deliberately avoiding you. I asked the secretary, and he said Company G is quite determined to withdraw its investment this time. They said we can appeal if we have any questions, and they refuse to negotiate."
"Got it, Manager Wang. You've worked hard today." Mu Yuting stood up and walked to the window, looked out, and said, "You should go back to the company first. Don't tell anyone about my visit."
Hearing that he was allowed to leave, Manager Wang was stunned. "Mr. Mu, Young Master Ye Chen arranged for me to protect you closely. I can't leave. If I leave, I won't be able to explain to Young Master Ye."
"You? Protect me?" Mu Yuting raised his eyebrows slightly and asked back.
"Mr. Mu, I'm quite skilled. If you don't believe me, ask Young Master Ye Chen. We've had a sparring match before." Manager Wang answered seriously, with a hint of pride in his words.
Mu Yuting chuckled. No wonder Ye Chen said that Manager Wang was trustworthy. He was indeed quite loyal. Speaking of sparring, Mu Yuting was itching to do it. However, the situation didn't allow it right now. When he had time in the future, he really wanted to exchange a few moves with Manager Wang.
"Think about it carefully. It's dangerous to follow me. It's safer to go back to the company." Mu Yuting reminded again.
Manager Wang was a little anxious, and his eyes, which were not big to begin with, widened to their limit. Although they were still not too big, they were firm and powerful.
"Mr. Mu, am I a coward? I have always admired you. Just let me follow you. I will never hold you back."
Looking at Manager Wang's expression, he seemed determined to stay here. Well, since he had this intention, he couldn't be too decisive.
"You and Mu Yuan will live in the same room." Mu Yuting agreed to let him stay.
Manager Wang's face was filled with joy. "Thank you, Mr. Mu."
In fact, for Mu Yuting, he is used to being alone, and he feels more free and easy when he is alone. With his skills, it would be a burden for him to have anyone around him.
But his brothers were willing to follow him, which was an affirmation of him, and he would always remember the friendship of his brothers.
…
Zhang family villa.
Perhaps out of patriotism, Zhang Huaishan's villa was built in Chinese style. The three-story Chinese-style building is quite magnificent. The large courtyard is full of green plants and flowers, with winding paths running through it, deep and quiet.
The courtyard is surrounded by iron fences, and there are two stone lions on both sides of the two sliding iron gates.
The car following Mu Yuting stopped at the door of Zhang's house and honked the horn. The housekeeper came over and opened the big iron gate. The car drove into the courtyard. Two people got out of the car and were led into the villa by the housekeeper.
Zhang Huaishan has a head full of white hair and is practicing calligraphy in his study.
"Master, guests are coming." The butler walked into the study and said in a low voice.
"knew."
After he finished writing the last stroke, he placed the brush on the inkstone, picked up the cane standing next to the table, and walked towards the living room.
When the two young men saw Zhang Huaishan coming in, they quickly stood up. After Zhang Huaishan sat down, they began to report on today's tracking situation.
After hearing this, Zhang Huaishan coughed for a while. The housekeeper quickly handed him a cup of strong tea that sounded like medicine. Zhang Huaishan drank two sips, calmed himself down, and sighed deeply.
"Were you discovered while following?"
The two young men exchanged a glance. "After following them for a few minutes, we noticed they slowed down. They probably didn't notice us. If they had, wouldn't they have tried to get rid of us?"
Zhang Huaishan sighed again, "You underestimated Mu Yuting. This kid is smarter than a monkey. He deliberately asked you to come back with him to report. You are still too naive. Go down and don't follow him anymore."
"Yes, Master." Just as the two were about to leave, Zhang Huaishan suddenly called them back, "You must take good care of John's wife. Treat her to delicious food and drinks. Don't let her die. A dead person has no value."
"We understand." They said in unison.
A week ago, Zhang Huaishan sent people to kidnap the wife of John, the president of G Company. Afterwards, he had someone contact John and told him that your model wife is in my hands. Your wife is so beautiful. If you dare to call the police, I can't guarantee the consequences. Sometimes I can't control my men.
John and his wife love each other very much, so you can imagine how panicked he was when he received such a call. In order to make John believe it completely, the other party even asked him to talk to his wife.
John is a very successful businessman. The business world is like a battlefield. He himself admits that he must have offended many people to achieve his current success.
Although John and Zhang Huaishan had some conflicts over a piece of land, Zhang Huaishan is old and has long since stopped being involved in business matters.
So John thought about it for a long time and suspected many people, but he never thought that it was Zhang Huaishan who was behind it.
Although he didn't know who the other party was, since it was a kidnapping, it was just for money. In order for his wife to return home safely, John was willing to pay the money and only asked the other party to name a price.
Zhang Huaishan, the old fox, was not after money, but in order to cover up his tracks, he still asked for one million US dollars and made a request: Company G must immediately terminate its cooperation with the Mu Group.
These two things were not difficult for John. He agreed immediately over the phone. Nothing was more important than his wife's life.
Now, everyone knows why Company G was so determined and suddenly wanted to withdraw its investment. It was all because of Zhang Huaishan's despicable tactics that forced them to do so.
The purpose is nothing more than to lure Mu Yuting to the United States and give an explanation to his granddaughter.
Ye Chen is a computer expert. Even if Zhang Huaishan does it without anyone noticing, this is the information age after all, and the Internet will always leave traces.
Ye Chen tracked Zhang Huaishan's calls and analyzed them one by one, sorting out the whole story. In addition to the project matters, human lives were also at stake, which was why Mu Yuting had to come this time.
