Lan Zhenhua sighed in disappointment. It was all because of his impatience!
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to Siyu! There's one more thing. Given the current situation, should we still let Xia Qianhui and Yaxin out?"
Gu Siyu was also undecided. The Lan family and the Xia family had completely torn their relations apart. If she let two more troublemakers out, would it cause more trouble for the Lan family?
"If we keep them locked up, the upside is that we have two fewer enemies. The downside is that if they're locked up for too long, people outside will think we're abusing Xia Qianhui and Yaxin out of venting our anger, and public opinion will shift accordingly."
"If we let him out, the downside is that Xia Qianhui and Yaxin will definitely seek revenge on us, and we'll be in a lot of trouble. The upside is that the people will think we're acting with integrity, and we'll have the upper hand in public opinion."
“So I’m also hesitant about what to do?”
Lan Zhenhua looked at Qin Haotian and asked, "Haotian, what do you think?"
Qin Haotian’s thoughts are very simple, not as entangled as Gu Siyu.
"Keep Siyu's adoptive father locked up, and then find a way to get some clues that will be beneficial to us. Let Xia Qianhui and Yaxin go free first. If you want to kill them, you must first make them crazy. If Xia Qianhui and Yaxin stir up trouble everywhere and don't know how to restrain themselves, then we will kill them directly!"
Gu Siyu believed Qin Haotian's opinion and nodded, saying, "Then let them go! We have more than just the Xia family as our rivals. If we keep them locked up, the others might make a big fuss! It's better to let them go graciously. What happens next depends on how they behave!"
At this time, Roy's live broadcast room was not so calm. The audience was discussing it heatedly and was extremely excited!
"You cheated on someone and still think they were cruel. You're such a jerk!"
"So what if he's locked up for life? He's still rich and lives a life of luxury!"
"The Xia family showed no sincerity in their apology. They got angry after a few more words. I don't know how they managed to grow their business."
"You don't know yet, do you? The Xia family relies on speculation and profiteering! They're a well-known upstart in the capital's upper class!"
"No wonder they're so uncultured! Humph, a company like this will go bankrupt sooner or later!"
…
Seeing that he could no longer control the situation, Xia Qianjin immediately ended the press conference and fled the scene in a hurry.
On the way back to Xia's house, Xia Qianjin was very confused and hurriedly called his son Xia Baiqiang.
"Hey, did you just watch the live broadcast? Go find the urban charm woman now and make their reporter Roy change his tune!"
Xia Baiqiang was so annoyed that he almost cursed. He had to clean up another butt before he finished cleaning one. Did he owe them something in his previous life?
"Dad, the situation is very unfavorable to us now. Can't you be more careful with your words? You get angry every time someone provokes you. Even if I run myself to pieces, I won't be able to solve the problem for you in time!"
Xia Qianjin sighed heavily, "Oh! I didn't want to do that either. That woman is so cunning! You can just spend some money. Go and deal with them!"
Xia Baiqiang was so angry that he hung up the phone and didn't even want to say anything.
That afternoon, Xia Qianhui and Lan Yaxin were blindfolded and thrown onto the street.
Because her eyes were tied and she couldn't see outside, Xia Qianhui ignored the pain and rubbed her eyes anxiously on the ground, and the blindfold fell off.
"We're out! They let us go!"
Lan Yaxin was still blindfolded, and she anxiously asked for help: "Help me untie it quickly, I'm in so much pain!"
Xia Qianhui bit off Lan Yaxin's blindfold with her mouth, then jumped behind Lan Yaxin and said, "Don't be impatient, let me see if the knot on your hand is a dead knot first."
Lan Yaxin raised her hand as high as she could so Xia Qianhui could see it more carefully. "How is it? Is it a knot or a slipknot?"
Xia Qianhui exclaimed in surprise: "It's Slipknot!"
Then, he bit one of the ropes with his teeth and pulled it back hard, and Lan Yaxin's hands were instantly free.
After Lan Yaxin regained her freedom, she first untied the rope on her feet, and then went to untie the rope for Xia Qianhui.
"I called Dad. We were kidnapped these past few days, and he must be going crazy."
Xia Qianhui held Lan Yaxin's hand and said, "Don't hit me! We won't go back to the Lan family anymore!"
That day, Lan Yaxin came out of the company alone and was kidnapped by Qin Haotian's men. So not only did she not know where she went, she didn't even know who kidnapped her! She didn't even know why she was kidnapped.
"Why? Did you have a fight with Dad? Or did Dad make you angry? It doesn't matter, I'm here to be the peacemaker!"
Xia Qianhui didn't know where to start, so she could only hug Lan Yaxin and burst into tears.
"Wow! It's no use. It's Mom's fault. I've gotten our Xinxin into trouble!"
Lan Yaxin was completely confused. What happened?
"Mom, stop crying and tell me what happened."
Xia Qianhui choked and shook her head repeatedly, swallowing the words back when they came to her lips.
Just then, an extended version of Lincoln stopped by the roadside and a man in a suit and tie got out of the car.
"Stop crying here and come with me!"
Xia Qianhui looked up and exclaimed, "Shen Junao? How did you know we were here?"
Shen Junao pointed to the car behind him and said, "Let's talk in the car. There are too many people passing by on the road, so it's not convenient to talk."
Xia Qianhui nodded and took Lan Yaxin into the extended version of Lincoln.
After the car started, Xia Qianhui asked again: "Mr. Shen, there is no one else here, can you speak now?"
Shen Aojun took a sip of red wine and said bluntly: "It was your brother who asked me to do this. I have a manor in Licheng, you can go and live there in the future!"
Xia Qianhui refused: "No! Yaxin and I can't leave the imperial capital!"
Shen Aojun frowned with a headache and said frankly: "To be honest, now you and your daughter are like rats crossing the street that everyone wants to beat. Brother Bai Qiang begged many people before he found me, but they didn't dare to take you in because they didn't want to offend the Lan and Qin families."
"If I didn't owe Brother Bai Qiang so many favors, I wouldn't take this risk! Anyway, if you go to Licheng, I will ensure that you have food and clothing. But if you want to continue to stay in the imperial capital, then I can only ask you to leave immediately."
Lan Yaxin became more and more confused as she listened, and couldn't help but ask aloud: "Why are we the rats crossing the street? And we have offended the Lan family. Isn't my mother the daughter-in-law of the Lan family? My father listens to my mother, who dares to bully my mother?"
Shen Aojun said with amusement: "Why? Your mother hasn't told you her true identity yet?"
Lan Yaxin said very proudly: "I am the eldest daughter of the Lan family! What other identity can I have?"
Shen Aojun smiled mysteriously, "You should ask your mother yourself, I'm not in a position to answer."
Lan Yaxin looked at Xia Qianhui in confusion, took her hand and asked, "Mom, it's already this late, don't hide it from me! Tell me now!"
