Adorable Daddy is the CEO

Chapter 37 1 life for 1 life

Ye Manqiu's mood has been very unstable.

She went to pour water for Lu Yuanzhao, but accidentally broke the cup. When she was about to pick it up, the man grabbed her wrist.

"You go and wait for the call, I'll come here." Afraid that she might hurt her hand, Lu Yuanzhao simply let her sit on the sofa.

So Ye Manqiu sat in front of the sofa, staring at the mobile phone on the coffee table, and only remembered to blink her red and swollen eyes when she was tired. It was only two hours since Yiyi was kidnapped, but she felt that it was worse than a century. Long and difficult.

Lu Yuanzhao ordered takeaway, Ye Manqiu just shook his head without even looking at it.

"You have to take a sip of that water, or your body will collapse before you hear from Yiyi." Lu Yuanzhao handed the cup to her.

Ye Manqiu took it and drank half a glass of water in one go.

Her tears had dried up, and she just sat on the sofa, neither tired nor sleepy, as if she had lost consciousness.

Finally, at twelve o'clock in the evening, the kidnapper finally called. Ye Manqiu moved his stiff fingers, picked up the phone in a panic, and pressed the answer button.

Lu Yuanzhao quietly motioned her to turn on the speakerphone, but Ye Manqiu was taken aback, and then did so.

"Don't worry, as long as you come as required, we won't do anything to this kid." The middle-aged man's voice was still on the other end of the phone.

Ye Manqiu took a deep breath, pretended to be calm and said, "What are you guys going to do?"

"It's very simple. Tomorrow morning, you come here alone, and we will talk again."

Ye Manqiu asked again, "Where are you going?"

The other party snorted coldly with disdain, "I tell you now, is it to give you time to prepare? Go to the cross building in the south of the city first, then contact me, and finally remind you that you must come alone. If you call the police, don't blame me for not Show mercy!"

Putting down the phone, Ye Manqiu leaned on the sofa as if in a state of prostration, the other party was secretly keeping her in the light, and now, for Yiyi, no matter what demands the kidnappers put forward, she could only follow through.

The two of them had almost no sleep all night, and Ye Manqiu got up to clean up just before dawn.

Lu Yuanzhao walked to her side and said seriously, "Promise me, no matter what happens later, you must ensure your safety."

Although the kidnapper didn't mention money, Lu Yuanzhao still took Ye Manqiu to the company.

"Wait for me in the car, I'll be right back."

The employees had just come to work, and when they saw Lu Yuanzhao walking with the wind, they all consciously gave way to him. The elevator went all the way up to the CEO's office on the top floor. Lu Yuanzhao found Zheng Ci and asked him for money.

"President, this is 1000 million cash." Zheng Ci handed him the box.

The night before, Lu Yuanzhao had made a plan, so he called Zheng Ci and asked him to prepare cash in advance. If this could bring back the safety of Ye Manqiu and Yi Yi, he would not even frown.

"Lu Yuanzhao, what are you doing?" A sharp female voice suddenly appeared aside.

Lu Yuanzhao turned his head and realized that Lin Yuxuan was here too. He didn't answer, but just stared at it with some red eyes, then picked up the cash on the table and turned to leave.

Lin Yuxuan was taken aback by the man's terrifying gaze, so she glared at Zheng Ci and left his office.

Soon, Xia Rong learned the news from Lin Yuxuan.

Lin Yuxuan and Xia Rong cooperated to investigate Lu Yuanzhao's matter, and just after finding some clues, they encountered such a major event.

So Xia Rong called Zheng Ci and asked about the whole story. He didn't dare to hide anything, so he had to tell him about Lu Yuanzhao's asking him to raise money, "Ma'am, Mr. Lu only asked me to raise money, and I'll do the rest." I didn’t ask much, I really don’t know.”

Xia Rong was silent for a moment, then ordered decisively, "Go find some media reporters."

She quickly sent someone to find the location of Lu Yuanzhao's car, and then made some plans in her heart, arranging for media reporters to rush there in 10 minutes.

At this time, Lu Yuanzhao's car arrived at the Shizilou mentioned by the kidnappers.

It is one of the most remote places in the suburbs near the south of the city. It is said that a developer wanted to build a commercial circle here, but later, because of stinginess, the construction team used the worst building materials to build a few crumbling buildings. The building lost several million and ran away.In the end, there are only a few unfinished buildings here that no one cares about.

At this time, Ye Manqiu's mood stabilized a lot. She called the kidnapper and said that she had arrived at Shizilou.

"Go straight fifteen kilometers and turn right at an abandoned warehouse."

After the other party reported the address, he hung up the phone in a hurry.

Without saying a word, Lu Yuanzhao drove the car forward again. After 10 minutes, he finally saw the so-called warehouse.

"I……"

"You are waiting for me here," Ye Manqiu interrupted Lu Yuanzhao, "The kidnappers asked me to go alone, and now we don't know what's going on inside, so we need your support and protection."

At that moment, Lu Yuanzhao couldn't say no to it, so he had to hand her the box of cash and told her to be careful.

"Promise me that nothing will happen."

Ye Manqiu smiled at him, got out of the car and walked towards the warehouse with a firm back.Lu Yuanzhao's heart was lifted up at that moment.

The only thing that reassures him is that the car is parked not too far from the warehouse, it is covered, and he can clearly see the situation inside the warehouse.Soon he saw Ye Manqiu walking there quickly and pushed open the door of the warehouse.

A few rays of sunlight flashed into the dark and damp warehouse, illuminating everything inside.When Ye Manqiu entered the door, she immediately saw the unconscious Yiyi who was tied to a chair. Her eyes widened and she rushed over quickly, but was stopped by two people halfway.

"Recognize your current situation, it's best not to act rashly!"

Ye Manqiu turned her head and saw a well-built middle-aged man with a beard and a fierce face. His voice was exactly the same as the one on the phone.

Ye Manqiu's breathing was a little short, she looked at Yiyi a few meters away, and said in a trembling voice, "What do you want?" She moved the box on her hands, "There is money here, can you return Yiyi to me?"

The man glanced at her, stepped forward to pick up the box in Ye Manqiu's hand, but threw it directly on the ground.

"That's not our purpose."

He took a shining dagger from his pocket, and the light shone on Ye Manqiu's face.

Seeing the man turn around and walk in Yiyi's direction, Ye Manqiu could no longer maintain her sanity, she shouted, "What are you going to do!"

The more she tried to break free, the tighter she was imprisoned. She could only see the man standing next to Yiyi, with the knife in his hand raised to a position parallel to her neck, before slowly stopping.

The man smiled, and said almost cruelly, "I want you, one life for another."
