The car was speeding on the road while Huo Yunzheng and Lu Yiming were talking on the phone.

"Brother, I checked the surveillance video. My sister-in-law was kidnapped on Pingyuan Road. I will send you the screenshots of the surveillance video now. See if you recognize this person."

The picture showed a black car with a person in the driver's seat. Huo Yunzheng looked carefully but did not recognize him and had never seen him before.

"Could it be Chen Xinru?" Lu Yiming reminded.

The second brother and Chen Xinru made their attitudes clear. That woman did not give up easily. Could it be that she discovered the existence of her younger sister-in-law?

Huo Yunzheng stopped the car, zoomed in on the photo, and noticed the figure in the back seat.

Xue Haibo.

He remembered this person clearly.

In a residential area in the south of the city, when Qiao Chuchu woke up, she found that her hands and feet were tied behind her back.

The surroundings are unfamiliar.

"woke up?"

The door was opened, and when Qiao Chuchu saw the person coming in, her eyes widened in disbelief.

"Xue Haibo?"

Xue Haibo glanced at her, took a bottle of water, unscrewed the lid, and handed it to her mouth, "Are you thirsty? Drink some water?"

Qiao Chuchu looked at him warily, not understanding what he wanted to do.

She came out of her uncle's house and was going to the subway station because of car restrictions. But before she got there, she was hit hard on the back of her head.

"Are you kidnapping me?" Qiao Chuchu looked at him coldly, her eyes full of vigilance.

"Chu Chu, I don't want to do this either. I have no choice, but don't worry, I won't hurt you."

After the Tang family fell, he lost his job. The Shanghai stock market is so big, but he couldn't find a suitable job. The landlord urged him to pay the rent, and he had no choice but to see a pop-up ad on his phone.

He won some money at first from online gambling, but then for some reason his luck got worse and worse. He started to borrow money, and his bets became bigger and bigger, and he couldn’t stop.

He owes too much and can't pay it back at all.

"Call your husband."

Xue Haibo took Qiao Chuchu's cell phone, asked Qiao Chuchu to tell him the password, and found Huo Yunzheng's contact information.

Qiao Chuchu looked at him with disdain, what a scumbag.

The call was connected, and before he could reveal his intention, Huo Yunzheng on the other end said his name first.

"Where is Chuchu?"

Xue Haibo looked at Qiao Chuchu and said, "Don't worry, I won't hurt her. I just want money."

"Okay, but you have to keep her safe."

There was a warning in Huo Yunzheng's words.

Xue Haibo wanted one million. The man that Qiao Chuchu married was a businessman. He didn't know how big his business was, and he didn't care whether this man could come up with so much money.

Since he chose this path, he never thought of turning back. If he didn't see the money, he would not let Qiao Chuchu go.

As Qiao Chuchu listened to him naming the price, although she had already cursed Xue Haibo thousands of times in her heart, she was not stupid. Now she had no ability to resist him, so she could not confront him head-on, let alone anger him, otherwise she would only put herself in danger and cause trouble for Huo Yunzheng.

"Haibo, did you get through on the call?"

Another man walked in from outside. He looked to be in his thirties. Qiao Chuchu also knew this man. He was a relative of Xue Haibo. She had met him once before.

"He got through. It was one o'clock in the morning. He delivered the money. It was under the bridge on Qiancheng Avenue."

The man nodded, his eyes fell on Qiao Chuchu's face, and he smiled obscenely twice.

"It seems that this woman is worth some money. She is so pretty, no wonder she can be with a rich man."

Xue Haibo glanced at him and said, "Brother, don't touch her."

Xue Haibo felt a little guilty towards Qiao Chuchu. Although the two of them had a very unhappy relationship after the breakup, he was the one who took advantage of her this time after all.

Qiao Chuchu must look down on him very much.

"Come on, go out for a drink and get the money in the evening."

On the road, Lu Yiming called again and said that he had located Qiao Chuchu's cell phone and gave an address.

"Second brother, I'll take people over there right away."

Huo Yunzheng hummed, turned around, frowned, and there was a sinister look in his eyes.

Qiao Chuchu was locked in the room. She was thinking of ways to save herself when she heard the sound of tables and chairs collapsing and something breaking outside.

Ten seconds later, the door was opened. When Qiao Chuchu saw Huo Yunzheng walking in, she burst into tears.

"Don't be afraid."

Huo Yunzheng untied the ropes on her hands and feet and held her in his arms.

He felt both sad and fortunate.

His Chuchu must have been quite frightened.

Fortunately, Xue Haibo still had a little conscience and did not hurt her too much. Huo Yunzheng could not imagine what she would face if the people who kidnapped her today were members of the Huo family or the Chen family.

It was his negligence, he failed to protect her.

Lu Yiming arrived later. Looking at the two people lying on the ground wailing in pain, Lu Yiming showed disgust. How dare these idiots, how dare they kidnap his sister-in-law?

Huo Yunzheng came out holding Qiao Chuchu, glanced at Lu Yiming and said nothing, but the other party already understood what he meant.

Tang Qing's fate is clear, and these two people will be even worse off than Tang Qing.

After bringing Qiao Chuchu home, Huo Ziyan rushed over to her mother as soon as he saw her, hugged her thighs and cried twice, then looked at her carefully.

"Mom, where have you been?" Huo Ziyan asked with red eyes.

Qiao Chuchu smiled, squatted down and looked at him, "It's okay, mom just accidentally got lost and made the baby worried, I'm sorry."

She was afraid of scaring the child, so she didn't tell him the truth.

Huo Ziyan gave her the painting he had drawn. Qiao Chuchu kissed him on the face and told him to go back to his room to rest first.

"Husband, didn't you call the police? Who were those people Lu Yiming brought just now?"

When Qiao Chuchu was carried out by Huo Yunzheng, she huddled in his arms, but she could see clearly that there were many men in black in the room, just like the cold-blooded killers in the movies, all of them looked ferocious.

"We didn't have time to call the police." Huo Yunzheng hugged her again, "I asked someone to locate your phone. When Xue Haibo called me, we knew where you were. Those people were all friends we met before."

"Is that so?" Qiao Chuchu looked at Huo Yunzheng. She knew that people who did business would have some connections.

"Don't think too much. Go take a shower and I'll cook something for you." Huo Yunzheng smiled.

"Ah."

It was late at night. After Qiao Chuchu fell asleep, Huo Yunzheng took the car keys and went out.

In a private club in Shanghai, Xue Haibo knelt on the ground with horror in his eyes, looking at the man in front of him.

Kidnapping Qiao Chuchu was a solution they came up with when they were left with no other options. Only now did he realize how stupid this idea was.

"Who are you?" Xue Haibo asked.

Huo Yunzheng looked down at him with a cold gaze, "You don't need to know."

With a flick of his left hand, the men behind him stepped forward, and screams of pain resounded throughout the room...
