Huo Xuan thought for a moment. “Give it to my mother.”
“You got 50 million just by calling your mother? Who are you trying to fool?” The killer laughed at Huo Xuan. “Kid, you go to a public free school. None of the clothes you wear are branded. You don’t even have a children’s watch that children wear nowadays. How can your family give you 50 million?”
Huo Xuan pursed her lips. “My family arranged for me to attend a public school, and the clothes I wear are all custom-made. They’re incomparable to the branded goods on the streets. Besides, why should I wear a watch? No one in our school wears children’s watches, and they don’t look good.” The killer leaned against the wall with his arms crossed and looked at Huo
Xuan in amusement.
“Bragging? You can continue bragging.” He smiled. “You’re a little kid, but you’re a big one. Do your parents know that you’re so good at bragging?
“I’m not bragging.” Huo Xuan said seriously. She then smiled brightly and acted coquettishly to the killer. “Uncle Killer, just trust me. I’ll give you 50 million yuan if you make a phone call.”
The killer took out his phone and looked at the time. “I can’t be bothered with you, you braggart.”
“You didn’t even call me. How do you know I’m bragging?” Huo Xuan tilted her little head. “Uncle, just make a call. 50 million, 30 million more than your previous 20 million. This deal is not a loss.”
The hitman put his phone back into his pocket. “I’m a hitman. I have to keep my word. Twenty million is twenty million. If I don’t keep my word, who will give us the order?”
As he spoke, he muttered, “But this order of yours is a death order. If you die, I’ll die too.”
The surroundings were silent. Huo Xuan was close to the killer and heard the last sentence clearly.
A crafty look flashed across her black eyes as she spoke again in a sweet voice, “Uncle, credit is important, but who would complain about having less money?
Money didn’t bite. With more money, you could buy anything you wanted. Other than spending it yourself, you could also buy a house and a car for your family, as well as good food and fun for your children. How nice would that
The killer seemed to have been reminded of his family by Huo Xuan’s words, and his eyes were moved.
Seeing this, Huo Xuan continued to speak softly and sweetly. Her angelic face was filled with innocence and purity.
“Uncle, just make a call. Really, you won’t regret making a call.” She blinked.
“I’m just a child and I’m tied up. I can’t run away and I can’t lie to you.”
Then she said to the killer, “Besides, you said that I’m just a kid. I study in a public school and don’t have any valuables on me. My family is not a big family. No one can harm you. Moreover, my life is in your hands. If my mother can’t pay, you’ll kill her. You won’t lose anything in this deal. Just make a phone call.” The killer’s eyes flashed as if he was moved by Huo Xuan’s words.
Huo Xuan continued to persuade him calmly and bravely. “A phone call won’t take up a tew minutes ot your time. Tell me the price you want in one minute. If my mother refuses, hang up the phone.”
The killer stared at Huo Xuan, at her angelic little face and her big, innocent eyes. He couldn’t help but reach for his phone pocket.
Huo Xuan looked at the killer with a smile on her face.
The killer took out his black phone and walked toward Huo Xuan.
“Tell me your mother’s number.”
Huo Xuan was overjoyed to see that the killer had been persuaded by her.
However, she was afraid that the killer would find out about her, so she tried her best to smile sweetly.
“Uncle, my mother’s number is 1…”
She quickly gave her mother Gu Qingcheng’s phone number.
She had wanted to call her father because she was afraid that her father would not be able to answer the phone in time when he was busy with work.
Fortunately, the last time she sat in her mother’s car, when her mother and father were in a conflict, she specially borrowed her mother’s phone. On the surface, she said that she would contact Grandpa Zhao and not go home for dinner, but in fact, she secretly sent a text message to her father asking him to go to the restaurant to see her mother.
At that time, she paid attention to her mother’s phone number. With her good memory, she remembered the number in time and used it today.
The killer looked at the string of numbers and hesitated for a moment. He pressed the dial button with his fingertips.
However, before the phone rang, he hung up again.
Huo Xuan’s eyes were filled with anxiety when she saw the killer uncle’s actions. “Uncle, why did you hang up?”
“My professionalism doesn’t allow me to do that.”
Huo Xuan couldn’t give up on this method of asking for help. She quickly continued sweetly. “Uncle, 50 million is a lot of money. It’s better than 20 million.”
The killer ignored Huo Xuan and stood at the door with his arms crossed again.
Uncle Huo Xuan kept shouting until his voice was hoarse. He did not let the killer listen to him anymore. Even so, he did not give up on saving himself.
He remembered that his mother had told him to be brave, so he had to save himself.
At that moment, Huo Sicheng looked at the time on his wrist. It was already ten o’clock at night. He didn’t know if Gu Qingcheng had returned to Wanmei Villa. He wanted to go back, hoping to see her when he got home.
However, when he went into his room and took out his phone, he saw three missed calls from Gu Qingcheng.
She took the initiative to contact him.
He subconsciously wanted to contact her, but when he thought about whether she would be called and scolded by Qi Shaoze again, he hesitated for a moment before getting into the car.
“Back to the villa.”
“Yes, Young Master.”
When Huo Sicheng returned to Wanmei Villa, he frowned because Gu
Qingcheng hadn’t returned.
“Madam isn’t back yet?”
When Mr. Zhao saw Young Master Huo Sicheng, his hands were trembling. He said respectfully, “Young Master, Madam is not back yet.”
Huo Sicheng was disappointed. He wanted to ask his son, Huo Xuan, but he was already asleep.
“Yes, Young Master.”
He stood where he was and watched Huo Sicheng leave. When he thought of the young master, he opened his mouth but didn’t tell Huo Sicheng the truth.
It seemed that Huo Sicheng still didn’t know about the kidnapping of his young master. He saw that his young master was in a bad mood, and it was obvious that he was having a conflict with Gu Qingcheng again.
That was good. He had already sent people to look for the young master. Besides, Gu Qingcheng was very powerful. If she found the young master first, he could use Miss Li to frame Gu Qingcheng for harming the young master.
This time, he was going to get rid of Gu Qingcheng to prevent any future troubles.
At the same time, Gu Qingcheng was worried about her son, Huo Xuan. Then she thought about how Mr. Zhao must have told Huo Sicheng that her son was missing. If they worked together, they would definitely be able to find him.
She picked up her phone, but Huo Sicheng still hadn’t called her. Even when her son was kidnapped, he didn’t want to call her. He really disappointed her!
Suddenly, the phone in her hand rang. She quickly looked at it and realized that it was an unfamiliar number.
Perhaps it was because of the connection between mother and son, her sixth sense told her that this number was definitely not simple.
“Lu Chi, quickly check this number.” After sending Lu Chi her number, she called him again. “I’ll go over to your place now.”
“I’ve already checked the number you sent.” Lu Chi’s voice was steady. “See you at the usual place.”
Gu Qingcheng sped toward the location Lu Chi had mentioned. Her phone rang again, and she saw that it was Lu Chi calling.
“Speak.”
“Your son’s life was bought by someone.” Lu Chi said. “The person who kidnapped your son is a death warrior. If he fell into the hands of such a killer, your son would definitely be dead by now.”
“Creak…” The screeching of the brakes echoed throughout the street. Gu
Qingcheng’s eyes were wide open. Lu Chi’s words about her son dying filled her ears. The car was already going very fast, but she couldn’t stop it and crashed into a big tree in front of her.
“Gu Qingcheng?” Lu Chi exclaimed in shock. “What happened? What’s wrong with you?”
