"Where’s Chenchen? Is she at home?"
As soon as the call connected, Meng Yanzhi excitedly asked.
"Meng Yanzhi?" Si Yu recognized his voice and said, "Where my Chenchen is doesn’t concern you, does it?"
"Si Yu, no matter how much you hate me, I’m still the child’s uncle."
Meng Yanzhi’s heart was worried, and there was urgency in his words. He said, "First tell me, is Chenchen safe at home?"
Si Yu found Meng Yanzhi’s words strange, as if something had happened to Chenchen.
"Could someone be trying to harm Chenchen?" Si Yu asked back.
"You should check first." Meng Yanzhi said anxiously and hung up the phone. He immediately instructed his assistant to prepare US$ 5,000,000, regardless of whether Chenchen was in his custody; get the money ready.
If Ji Changming really dared to target Chenchen, he would make Ji Changming regret ever coming into this world!
"Mr. Meng, why do you suddenly need so much money?" The assistant looked at Ji Changming with confusion, not only requesting US$ 5,000,000 but insisting on cash.
Withdrawing such a large sum of cash is troublesome and requires prior appointment. Pulling out that much cash immediately is indeed very difficult.
"Just go and prepare it quickly," Meng Yanzhi said irritably, and he also made calls to investigate the warehouse in the fishing village.
If Ji Changming dares to boldly announce the location, then he must not be afraid of being investigated, or he’s prepared thoroughly.
Could the US$ 5,000,000 be for escape?
No, it’s not going to be that easy.
Meng Yanzhi’s eyes darkened. No matter what, he wouldn’t let Ji Changming off easily.
On the other side, after hanging up the phone, Si Yu remained silent. Chenchen indeed had been taken, but he was very certain that Chenchen wouldn’t be in danger.
Since Chenchen’s last incident, Si Yu had increased the protection for both children, no longer neglecting their safety just because they were inconspicuous kids.
Both Zaozao and Chenchen carry advanced tracking devices, and there are people protecting them secretly.
The moment Chenchen was taken, Si Yu knew. Simultaneously, with Chenchen confirmed safe, Si Yu planned to catch the bigger fish and warn everyone: whoever dared to touch his daughter should be ready to bear the consequences.
...
Meng Yanzhi was raising money while waiting for Si Yu’s call.
But after waiting and waiting, he didn’t get Si Yu’s call. He was about to go find him when Si Yu’s call came.
"Go alone, I’ve prepared the money for you."
Si Yu spoke calmly, a calmness that shocked Meng Yanzhi a bit. Instantly, Meng Yanzhi reacted, raising his voice and angrily accused, "Si Yu, you’re crazy! That’s your daughter, your daughter! You’re using her safety as bait?"
"You’re wrong. That’s my daughter. I’m more concerned about her safety than anyone."
Si Yu reminded him. His daughter meant more to him even than his own life. How could he not care for her safety?
"Heh, you care about her safety, but use her as bait; you’re not in a hurry to rescue her but using her to catch someone?"
"Si Yu, is this how much you love your daughter?"
"Do you understand she’s just an eight or nine-year-old girl?"
"Have you no sense as a father?"
