"Mr. Zhan, if any police come and harass us, I'll immediately silence your precious son!"

When the call connected, before the leader of the kidnappers had even asked his father to say anything, he directly spilled the warning to prevent himself from being pursued by the police. His fingertips lightly touched the rusted steel pipe at the side, subconsciously tapping it. The smile faded from his face, leaving behind an indifferent expression.

The battle father's heart tightened and his face paled because of the other party's words. His brows once again furrowed. His face was full of reluctance. Due to the safety of Zhan Ziye, he had no choice but to ask: "Okay, what do you want?"

His voice was calm and cold, without the slightest hint of nervousness. Instead, the big hand holding the phone trembled slightly. Ye Zichen's mind echoed with the number of the taxi. He subconsciously picked up a pen and wrote it down on a piece of paper.

"I can easily be satisfied with one billion. I want you to deliver it to the warehouse yourself. You are not allowed to bring anyone here! "

The bandit leader whistled, leaning lazily against a nearby pillar. The first half of the sentence was said in a nonchalant manner, while the second half was filled with a serious warning, just like how Battle-Father would not let Zhan Ziye go if he brought someone else over.

"Alright!" The Battle Father was provoked by the aggressive tone, but he could not get angry at the person on the phone. He clenched his teeth and punched the soft sofa. His aura was still as calm as before, and he seemed to be giving his assent.

After the two hung up the phone, their battle father immediately recorded down the address and laid it out flat on the table. He looked at the policeman sitting opposite him with a cold expression. Even though he had seen a lot of people, he knew that robbers were not the type to keep one's word, so he had to think about what to do.

"You guys follow me in the dark, don't let anyone find out where you are. I'll go see them with money alone." After thinking for a while, when the police were about to speak, War Father told the people around him to step back and slowly say what he was thinking.

His heart was filled with anxiety, but he was forced to calm down because he could not be in a mess. Inwardly, he was blaming Zhan Ziye for running around and causing trouble, but he did not dare to neglect the matter of finding traces of Zhan Ziye.

"Yes sir!" The policemen looked at each other and all agreed that this method was feasible. His mind was replaying his experiences of robbers capturing people in the past, using it as a form of experience to draw attention to themselves.

After receiving their agreement, the Battle Father immediately went to the study room and arranged for his assistant to give him money from the bank. He then took out 1 billion yuan and put it in a box. Looking at the photo of Zhan Ziye on the desk, he sighed to himself. His fingertip unconsciously trembled Zhan Ziye's face, revealing a trace of worry in his eyes.

Not long later, the items were ready. The assistant brought the money in front of War Father. Before he even opened his mouth, he had already waved his hand and ordered his men to retreat. Standing in front of the desk, he took off his suit jacket from a shelf and put it on very naturally. Carrying the suitcase, he walked out of the house.

Father War sat alone in the main driver's seat, heading for the place the robbers had told him to go. There was a policeman hidden in the trunk of the car, but no one knew it.

In the old warehouse, Zhan Ziye slowly opened his eyes after everyone had left. He looked at Du Liqing, who was standing in front of him. His heart was filled with doubt. He couldn't help but ask, "Why did you come here?"

"I just happened to pass by the alley where you were taken away by the robbers, and then I followed them and got caught before the police cars arrived." Du Liqing casually sat on a clean floor and looked around, trying to find a gap to escape.

She didn't explain the whole situation vividly, but she just casually explained a bit or two, which just so happened to express her kindness. There was a clean look in her eyes that was not present in the eyes of many women.

"Thank you very much." Although Zhan Ziye didn't like the dirt on the ground, he still subconsciously wanted to get close to her when he saw Du Ruqing sitting down. He sat beside her without any hesitation, his lips rippling with an unruly smile.

He couldn't help but pay close attention as he saw the expression in Dudian's eyes. In a trance, he felt a sense of shock. He stared at the other party, as if something was attracting his gaze, causing him to slowly fall in love with the other party's eyes.

Du Ruqing, who was being stared at, faintly felt very uncomfortable. She took a glance at Zhan Ziye before turning her gaze away. He felt that they were too close to each other, so he used his hands to support himself on the floor and moved back a little. It happened to accidentally touch the steel rod behind it, causing it to make a rolling sound.

The person guarding the door just happened to hear this sound and felt that something was not right inside. He said to the person beside him, "Did you hear anything?"

The person on the other side was leaning against the wall with his hands crossed in front of his chest. There was a piece of dog's tail grass in his mouth. He looked extremely lazy and didn't seem to notice anything. He took a deep breath and stretched his back before slowly saying, "Why are you still fine? Why are you so nervous?"

In the warehouse, just as the rolling steel rod was about to stop, it bumped into a cardboard box. A bead was placed on the edge of the box, and it fell down, producing a "peng peng peng" sound.

The man with sharp ears suddenly became worried. He frowned, and without saying anything further, he prepared to open the door. Then, he went out to see what had happened. At this moment, Zhan Ziye, who was in the room, subconsciously tilted his head and pretended to be asleep.

"I already said that everything is fine, you should worry too much. Go out." The two of them walked in and saw a man and a woman who were sitting on the floor peacefully. The man who had initially thought that there was nothing wrong curled his lips. He could not help but complain to the other man, causing him to be in the wrong.

The man who was being retorted with scratched his head in confusion. He didn't notice that the bead had fallen into the pit the moment he pushed open the door. Therefore, at this moment, everything was calm and peaceful. There wasn't the slightest bit of change.

After the two of them confirmed that Du Liqing and Zhan Ziye were in the room, they left without any other escaping tools. He closed the door and continued to stand guard outside.

The two people in the room let out a sigh of relief, and Zhan Ziye, who was slightly squinting, opened his eyes, making eye contact with Du Liqing.

"Do you have any way to escape?" Du Liqing subconsciously lowered his head, and whispered next to Zhan Ziye's ear.

Zhan Ziye's nose was twined with the smell of Du Liqing's body, and beside his ears was the hot air exhaled by the other party, causing his heart to stop beating for a moment. As the scene of Du Liqing and Lu Juyan getting along with each other echoed in his mind, he felt a sudden pain in his heart. He looked away and opened his mouth. There was a very dry feeling in his throat.
