Chapter 334 Threat of Kidnapping
Chapter 334 Threat of Kidnapping
Lin Yi did not object, he simply nodded, indicating his tacit agreement to the matter.
Hei Lang followed behind the two of them and then went straight to the front gate.
"Han Xuemei, Han Xuemei."
Lin Yi didn't even knock on the door, instead, he shouted loudly toward the courtyard.
At that moment, inside the room, it was indeed Han Xuemei with Xiao Bao and the two of them.
And just before, she had been tirelessly negotiating.
Her goal was to leave the city with the child as soon as possible.
She was very aware of Lin Yi's powerful capabilities within the city.
If she couldn't leave by any chance, then they would soon find out where she was.
Upon hearing the voice outside, she became panicked.
"Daddy, it's Daddy's voice."
Xiao Bao was very clever and recognized the voice immediately.
"Daddy, Daddy."
She screamed at the top of her lungs, then shouted loudly toward the outside.
"Shut your mouth."
Han Xuemei, truly irritated, then grabbed her and covered her mouth with her hand.
Xiao Bao struggled desperately here.
Slap, slap.
Han Xuemei reached out and smacked her bottom hard twice.
At this, Xiao Bao burst into tears with a wail.
The crying quickly reached Lin Yi's ears.
No, she couldn't wait any longer, if she continued to wait, she feared she wouldn't be able to save her own life.
"That's enough, open the door."
Stay tuned to empire
Lin Yi took two steps back and then turned to look at Hei Lang and said.
"Okay, big brother, leave it to me."
For Hei Lang, this was a piece of cake.
He stepped forward, then kicked the door open with one strong kick.
Several people rushed into the courtyard in a panic.
And just then, Han Xuemei had already walked out from the room.
In her hand, she held a knife, and it was pressed against Xiao Bao's neck.
"Xue Mei, Xue Mei, please don't do anything rash."
After witnessing this scene, Han Xuewei became incredibly agitated.
"Mommy, Mommy, save me."
Xiao Bao continued to struggle, completely unaware of what was happening.
"Xiao Bao, be good, don't move, don't move at all, understand?"
Lin Yi did his best to soothe Xiao Bao's emotions here.
He was also worried that if the child kept on like this, it might exacerbate Han Xuemei's current mood.
And if Han Xuemei decided to do something rash under these circumstances, Xiao Bao would really be in trouble then.
"Xue Mei, if you have a problem, come at me. She's just a child, and besides, she used to call you 'Auntie' so affectionately."
"Heh, what's the matter, realizing the value of kinship now? When you were pressuring me back then, why didn't you think of that?"
"Xue Mei, I never intended to drive you to your death, and everything I did before was under the instruction of your parents. So, I haven't really done anything."
"Haven't done anything? I'm already reduced to this state. I'm crying out for help, but heaven doesn't hear, and earth doesn't respond. Do you think there's still a need for me to keep living?"
"Xue Mei, let's talk about this. And we can start all over. What do you want? Money? I can give you money. How much do you want?
I can give it to you right now."
As he spoke, he gestured towards Hei Lang.
Hei Lang quickly took out a checkbook he carried with him and placed it in Lin Yi's hands.
"Money? Do you really think that some things, once lost, can still be bought back with money?"
"I know that, but isn't that what you're lacking right now? Besides, with this money, you can leave this place and start a new life. From now on, we'll go our separate ways and have nothing to do with each other."
"Fine, if that's the case, then give me 50 million."
At this, Lin Yi's hands suddenly stopped moving.
50 million, this girl really asks for the moon.
"Fine, 50 million it is. I'll give it to you."
Lin Yi just nodded his head and then took out the checkbook, casually signing his name before writing down the amount.
"See? I've written the check already. Can you put the child down now?"
"Heh, Lin Yi, do you really think I'm stupid? The moment I put the child down, you'll snatch the check from me. Do you think I would do that?"
"What else do you want? You just want the money, right? I've given you the money now, can't you let the child go? Don't worry, I guarantee I won't touch a penny of it."
"Your guarantee? Your guarantee is worth shit. I'm telling you, get me a car right now."
"Do you realize? What you're doing is kidnapping, coercion, it's illegal."
"Illegal? In my current situation, do you think whether it's illegal or not still matters to me?"
"Alright, don't be rash. You want a car? Fine, go, prepare a car and bring it to the door."
"Big Brother."
Hei Lang merely lifted his head to look at him.
In truth, from Hei Lang's perspective, they could just forcefully snatch the child out of her hands.
But the knife was dangerously close to the baby's neck.
He was also worried that in the struggle, they might harm the child, and that would be a disaster.
"Go, bring the car over. Do you understand?"
"Okay, I got it. I'll go right now."
After saying this, Hei Lang hurriedly left the courtyard.
"Xue Mei, why must you do this?"
Han Xuewei crouched down suddenly and then, with a broken heart, she uttered these words before bursting into loud sobs.
"Xue Mei, honestly, I don't want this either. If it wasn't for your husband forcing me, I wouldn't have come to this. Rest assured, as long as I can leave here safely, I will definitely ensure the child's safety and bring him back to you unharmed."
"Xue Mei, how about I become your hostage? You put the child down, and I'll go with you. I'll make sure you're safe, and then I'll come back."
"No way, I can't trust anyone right now. The only thing I trust is the little girl in my hands."
"Big Brother, the car is here."
Very quickly, Hei Lang came back.
Afterward, he placed the car keys in Lin Yi's hands.
"See? The car keys are right here."
"Everyone, step back."
"Alright, alright, we are stepping back, everyone step back. Be careful, please be very careful."
