The Romantic Soldier King

A hoarse and unpleasant voice came out of the phone, "Mr. Ye, it's about time for the bank to get off work. How are the ransom preparations?"    

"Don't worry, we've already prepared all 300 million in cash. It's in the garage of our family's villa now." Ye Cheng tried his best to speak very slowly. Qiao Rubing's phone had already been monitored by the national security technicians, so he wanted to find the source of this call and earn as much time as possible.    

"To be able to gather 300 million in less than a day, I'm a bit regretful. Isn't 300 million a little less?" The kidnapper laughed strangely.    

"The previous agreement was not like this. Although you are kidnappers, you still have to keep your word. Otherwise, I won't feel at ease exchanging hostages with you all." Ye Cheng cursed in his heart: As expected, kidnappers are not trustworthy.    

Qiao Rubing's beautiful eyes stared straight at Ye Cheng. Although she couldn't hear what the kidnapper said, she still listened to Ye Cheng's every word.    

"Mr. Ye, I was just casually saying don't be anxious!" The kidnapper laughed twice and continued, "There seems to be more unknown people in your mansion, did you secretly call the police?"    

"I don't feel safe leaving all this cash at home. Those people are the bodyguards I specially requested to come back to ensure that the cash is absolutely safe. "If you don't believe me, you can go to Teng Long's bodyguard company and check." Since Ye Cheng dared to divulge the information to the kidnappers, he wasn't afraid of them searching for him. Instead, he hoped that the kidnappers would investigate and find out that they were destined to get nothing wrong. That way, the kidnappers would be easier to let down their guard.    

"I believe in the character of Mr. Ye, and I believe that Mr. Ye will not take your father-in-law's life as a joke."    

Bullshit, we've never met. Can you trust my character? However, after hearing what the kidnapper said, Ye Cheng was sure that the kidnapper had gone to investigate.    

The kidnapper continued, "Immediately prepare a container van, put the money in first, and then wait for my instructions."    

"No problem, I'll do it later." Since I'm so cooperative, why don't you let me hear my father-in-law's voice again? My wife is very worried about his safety. "    

The "my wife" that Ye Cheng said sounded extremely natural. Although Qiao Rubing knew that he said this to deal with the kidnappers, he still felt it to be weird. Hearing Ye Cheng mention that he wanted to hear his father's voice, Qiao Rubing became even more nervous.    

"Wait till you've put the money away!" The kidnapper hung up cleanly.    

Ye Cheng saw that Qiao Rubing was looking at him anxiously, he waved his phone: "The kidnapper hung up."    

This caused Qiao Rubing to be disappointed. He asked worriedly, "Did something happen to my dad?"    

"Don't worry, as long as the ransom is in our hands, the kidnappers won't do anything to Chairman Joe for now." Ye Cheng didn't want Qiao Rubing to let his imagination run wild, so he said hurriedly: "Sister Ru Bing, quickly find someone to prepare a container truck and drive it to the villa to use as a ransom."    

"Are we going to exchange the ransom for my dad?"    

"Yes, but the exact time and location will have to wait for the kidnapper's call." You go and prepare the carriage, I'll go and look for my friends in National Security Agency to arrange something. "    

Ye Cheng went to the second floor and found the person in charge of listening in on him. After asking around, he found out that the kidnapper was calling from Xia Men, who was thousands of miles away. His heart skipped a beat. Had the kidnappers already taken the hostages? No way, they had not received the ransom, how could they leave the Eastsea City? It could also have been a smoke bomb deliberately released by the kidnapper.    

Things were getting complicated. If the kidnapper was in Summer, how was he going to collect the ransom money? Ye Cheng suddenly thought about it: Maybe the leader of the kidnappers had already escaped to Xia Men, and was controlling them from afar, leaving behind people to collect the ransom.    

However, this matter had to be investigated thoroughly. He immediately contacted Liang Chaohui, and transferred to the train heading to Xia Men City yesterday morning, as well as to the suspicious passengers on the plane. He also searched for traces of Qiao Xingye, not sparing even the high-speed cars heading to Xia Men City.    

Half an hour later, a container truck stopped in front of the garage of the villa. Ye Cheng immediately commanded the bodyguards to load up the boxes of cash. Liang Chaohui's investigation had not come to an end, so he could only wait for the kidnapper to give further instructions.    

A man is iron, but a man is steel. He is always hungry. No matter what, he has to fill his stomach first. When dinner was just ready, before Ye Cheng could even have a bite, Qiao Rubing's phone had already rang. He took out his cell phone and looked at the caller ID. It was the same number as the one he had seen in the afternoon.    

Qiao Rubing was already burning with anxiety. The closer the time to exchange the ransom for her father, the more nervous she became. She stared at the phone in Ye Cheng's hand and urged him: "Hurry and answer!"    

Ye Cheng booed towards Qiao Rubing and pressed the answer button.    

"Mr. Ye?" The sound of the kidnapper's voice was still unpleasant to hear.    

"It's me." Ye Cheng asked calmly: "I've contacted you a few times, I still don't know what your name is."    

"You can call me Mr. Li." The kidnapper laughed: "Have you eaten dinner at Mr. Ye?"    

"I was preparing to eat." Although Ye Cheng really wanted to know the name of the kidnapper, he was 99% sure that this Mr. Li was fake.    

"Then I'm sorry, it looks like you have to exercise with hunger." The kidnapper suddenly said politely, then said, "Are you ready to load the money into the container truck?"    

"It's already been prepared. The three hundred million in cash is also in stock. When can I give you the money in exchange for my father-in-law? " Ye Cheng said casually, as if he wanted to use money to exchange for something that he didn't need.    

"Don't worry, I'll keep you on the phone while we drive to your villa's courtyard."    

Ye Cheng cursed in his heart: This guy really knows how to make time. He can't wait for me to finish eating before calling me! He was furious, but he still had to follow the kidnapper's instructions and get the car driven to the yard of the villa. " The car has already been driven out. Do you have any other instructions, Mr. Li? "    

"Open the back door of the van yourself. I want to inspect the goods."    

"Examine the goods?" Ye Cheng was startled, "Mr. Li, can you see it?"    

These words caused the kidnapper to be displeased, "You don't have to worry about that. Why don't you take a snapshot of it?"    

Ye Cheng walked to the back of the horse carriage and opened the back door of the carriage with his own hands, revealing the metal chest that was neatly placed there.    

Some of the bodyguards were stunned. They knew that it was filled with bundles of cash. It's said that it's a huge sum of three hundred million. If you give me that much money, I won't have to worry about it for three lifetimes.    

"Mr. Li, the back door has been opened according to your instructions." Ye Cheng held onto his phone, his sharp eyes swept across all the bodyguards present. He realised that without Qiao Wansan, he did not have the time to inform An Ningxuan to bring him out. He whispered to Qiao Rubing who was beside him, who nodded and walked towards the villa.    

Just as Ye Cheng was whispering to Qiao Rubing, he heard the kidnapper say: "Very good, take out the fourth row and count from the left of the seventh box, the sixth row and the eighth box, and the seventh row and the tenth box. Then open them all."    

Ye Cheng counted in order, pointed at the box and said to the soldier dressed as a bodyguard beside the car: "Take down the box, the box and the box."    

The soldier in disguise did as he was told and quickly took out the three metal boxes. After opening them, he showed them a bundle of hundred-dollar bills.    

Ye Cheng looked at his phone and said: "The box has already been opened. Mr. Li, do you want to check the goods?"    

At this time, An Ningxuan had already brought Qiao Wansan to the middle of the bodyguards. Ye Cheng thought that the kidnapper must have used Qiao Wansan to verify the authenticity of the money.    

The kidnapper ordered, "Put all your money on the ground!"    

Ye Cheng personally picked up the three boxes one by one and poured all of the cash on the ground. This made the small pile of cash even more attractive. I have already done as you requested! "    

"Go dig through the pile of money!"    

Ye Cheng patiently did as he was told, thinking that he would like to see what tricks you have up your sleeve. Just as he was digging through the pile of money, the voice of the kidnapper sounded out again. "Stop, pick up the two bundles of cash in your hands, spread them out in a fan shape and hold them over your head."    

Ye Cheng opened two bundles of banknotes and shook them over his head, then endured his anger: "Mr. Li, what do you need me to do?"    

The kidnapper laughed, "That's right, it's all real money. Put all of it into your pocket!"    

Damn, how do you know it's all real money? Ye Cheng's gaze swept across all the bodyguards present subtly, taking in every single person's expression. He faintly felt that there was always a pair of eyes watching everything, who could it be?    

With his own intuition, Ye Cheng rolled his eyes and looked carefully at the third floor of the house on the opposite side. He didn't see anyone, but he noticed that the curtains on the third floor were gently swaying. He had a wild guess in his mind: the kidnappers wouldn't be hiding in the opposite villa, would they? The most dangerous place was also the safest place. If the kidnappers really hid themselves this close, no one would even think of touching their head.    

Ye Cheng's heart was in ecstasy. Without batting an eyelid, he returned all of the money back into the box and put it into the carriage. Mr. Li, you really don't trust the credibility of a merchant like me. How could I use a cart of fake money in exchange for my father-in-law! "    

"Be careful not to sail a ship for ten thousand years, it is still necessary to inspect its cargo." "The kidnapper laughed heartily, as if three hundred million cash was already in his hand." Right now, take Qiao Rubing and drive to the Winning Group's building in the center of the city. It sounds like the two of you are only allowed to go. If you dare to meet another person, you will never see Qiao Xingye again. I'll give you the next instruction when the time comes. "    

Seeing how pleased he was with himself, Ye Cheng was even more sure that the money inside the kidnapper was all real. He told Qiao Rubing to get on the car and drive away from the villa.    

He drove very slowly from the villa to the front door of the villa. His eyes were focused on the third floor across the street. He could vaguely feel a figure hiding behind the curtain.    

After exiting the villa, Ye Cheng asked: "president Qiao, who is living in the villa opposite your house?"    

Qiao Rubing's mood was not high, and replied indifferently: "Oh, that is a real estate owner's villa, after buying it, it will be used as an investment, and normally no one lives there."    

Ye Cheng immediately informed Liang Chaohui, "girder, quickly send someone to infiltrate the villa opposite Qiao Rubing's home. I think the kidnapper might be hiding inside."    

"Really?" Liang Chaohui was pleasantly surprised: "I'll have An Gaohan bring the people over immediately."
