Chapter 445 Trading
At this moment, Chen Le sat in the car with a rather unpleasant expression. He hadn't expected the other party to be so cunning.
He turned to look at Bai Zhi beside him and asked:
"Bai Zhi, how much longer until we arrive?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhi spoke up:
"It'll be there soon. At this speed, it'll be there in ten minutes."
Upon hearing this, Chen Le nodded. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. Now, he could only take it one step at a time.
Thinking of this, Chen Le took out his phone and sent a message to Zhang, the security guard, informing him that the transaction location had changed again.
Soon, Chen Le arrived at the location Chen Yizhen had requested. It was an abandoned factory with hardly anyone around.
Chen Le got out of the car, and Bai Zhi followed behind him with the money.
Chen Yizhen's expression changed drastically when he saw Chen Le and Bai Zhi. He held up his knife, pointed it at Xin Xin beside him, and said:
"Didn't I tell you to come alone?"
"Who is this woman?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Le looked at Chen Yizhen and said:
"Me alone? Can I carry that much money?"
"Besides, you're not afraid of a woman, are you?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yizhen frowned. He turned to look at Bai Zhi and, seeing her gentle and frail appearance, immediately felt relieved. This woman didn't seem like a formidable character at all.
Thinking of this, Chen Yizhen looked at Chen Le and said:
"Chen Le, bring the money over here."
"Once I get the money, I will release Xin Xin."
Upon hearing this, Chen Le nodded, glanced at Bai Zhi, and then slowly walked towards Chen Yizhen.
At this moment, Chen Le felt a little nervous. He didn't know if he could save Xin Xin, but he had to try no matter what.
Chen Le walked up to Chen Yizhen, looked at her, and said:
"I brought the money."
"If you release Xin Xin, this money is yours."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yizhen licked his slightly chapped lips. He looked at the money behind Chen Le with greed in his eyes. He had never seen so much money in his life.
Once I got that money, I could pay off my debts and live a life of extravagance.
Thinking of this, Chen Yizhen looked at Chen Le and said:
"Put the money down, then step back."
Upon hearing this, Chen Le remained unmoved. He wasn't stupid; what if he put down the money and Chen Yi really refused to release Xin Xin?
Chen Le wasn't easily intimidated. He glanced at Chen Yizhen and Xu Cuiping and said:
"I don't trust you and your son."
"What if I give you the money and you still won't release my daughter?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Cuiping immediately burst into a tirade of curses:
"You heartless bastard, Yizhen is your nephew, how can you not even trust him?"
"Chen Le, you will die a horrible death."
Chen Le was too lazy to pay attention to this crazy woman. He just looked at Chen Yizhen and didn't believe that Chen Yizhen would take Xin Xin with her to die if she didn't even want the money.
Seeing that Chen Le remained unmoved, Chen Yizhen cursed inwardly. He knew that Chen Le was right; he and his mother had absolutely no credibility with Chen Le.
Chen Yizhen glanced at Chen Le, then at the pile of money, a look of heartache flashing in his eyes. Then, he reached out and removed the knife that was held to Xin Xin's neck.
Chen Yizhen's actions made Chen Le breathe a slight sigh of relief. As long as Chen Yizhen didn't hurt Xin Xin, everything would be fine.
Chen Yizhen looked at Chen Le and said:
"Chen Le, you can rest assured now."
"I've already moved the knife away, aren't you going to put the money down?"
Seeing this, Chen Le bent down slightly, then picked up the briefcase behind him and looked at Chen Yizhen, saying:
"Release my daughter first, and I'll give you the money then."
"That won't do. What if you don't pay me after we release her?"
Chen Yizhen glanced at Chen Le, then at Xu Cuiping. Xu Cuiping immediately understood and pulled Xin Xin aside.
Chen Yizhen didn't want to dawdle with Chen Le; if the police came, it would be troublesome.
It really does n’t work.
The only option left is to take it by force. At worst, as long as Chen Le isn't hurt.
However, Bai Zhi next to Chen Le caught Chen Yizhen's eye. Looking at Bai Zhi behind Chen Le, Chen Yizhen thought to herself:
"This young white-collar worker is delicate and frail, but quite pretty. She must be Chen Le's secretary."
"It's so good to be rich! Even your secretary is a stunning beauty!"
Looking at Bai Zhi, Chen Yizhen changed her mind again.
"Here's what we'll do: have that woman bring the money over, and I'll release your daughter."
Chen Yizhen looked at Chen Le, pointed at Bai Zhi, and then spoke.
As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Zhi gave Chen Le a look.
Seeing this, Chen Le immediately understood Bai Zhi's thoughts. He glanced at Bai Zhi, nodded, and then looked at Chen Yizhen, saying:
"Okay, then we'll do as you say."
When Chen Yizhen saw that Chen Le had agreed, he was overjoyed. He gave Xu Cuiping a wink, and Xu Cuiping immediately understood and pushed Xin Xin forward.
Bai Zhi, carrying the money, slowly walked towards Chen Yizhen.
Chen Yizhen looked at Bai Zhi with greed in his eyes. So much money would soon be his, and this woman would be his too.
Bai Zhi walked up to Chen Yizhen, who immediately removed the knife from Xin Xin's body and then placed it against Bai Zhi's neck.
Upon seeing this, Xin Xin immediately ran towards Chen Le, shouting in a slightly tearful voice,
"dad."
"Be good, Xin Xin, hide behind Daddy."
Chen Le longed to hold Xin Xin in his arms right now, but the danger was not over yet.
He shielded Xin Xin behind him, and a glint of light flashed in Chen Le's eyes as he looked at Bai Zhi.
Chen Yizhen felt the weight of the suitcase in her hand, looked at Bai Zhi, and said:
"Little beauty, don't blame me for being heartless. If you have to blame someone, blame yourself for following the wrong person."
"Don't worry, I won't hurt you. As long as you behave, I'll let you go after I leave here."
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhi remained silent, only staring coldly at Chen Yizhen, her eyes icy and devoid of any fear.
Chen Yizhen felt a little uncomfortable under Bai Zhi's gaze. He cursed inwardly and looked at Chen Le, saying:
"Chen Le, don't even think about calling the police, otherwise, I can't guarantee the safety of this little beauty."
Upon hearing this, Chen Le looked at Chen Yizhen and said:
"Don't worry, I won't call the police."
"You...you step back."
Chen Yizhen brandished the knife at Chen Le.
Without hesitation, Chen Le slowly retreated.
Chen Yizhen shouted at her mother again:
"Mom, take that woman's money away."
Xu Cuiping nodded and walked over, taking the suitcase from Bai Zhi's hand while keeping an eye on Chen Le, afraid that Chen Le might suddenly rush up.
She had never seen anything like this before, but her son was educated, so listening to him was the right thing to do.
