Time goes back to two hours ago.
After Xu Guangnian finished his work in the store, he drove his family van to pick up his daughter from the elementary school in the east part of the city.
Over the years, because of the disability of his legs, he has missed many opportunities to accompany his children. Therefore, since his legs recovered, no matter how busy Xu Guangnian is, he will rush to school before school.
However, this time, when Xu Guangnian came to school, he could not wait for his daughter.
Xu Guangnian originally thought it was his children cleaning the school, but until all the children in the school had left, he still didn't see his well-behaved and sensible daughter.
At that time, Xu Guangnian felt something was wrong and immediately called the school teacher.
The teacher's answer shocked Xu Guangnian, and he felt like the whole world had collapsed.
It turned out that half an hour ago, a man who claimed to be the child's second uncle had come to the school to pick up the child!
Xu Guangnian's eyes went dark at that time, and he almost fainted from fright.
He has no younger brother at all, so where does his second uncle come from?
After coming back to his senses, Xu Guangnian immediately prepared to call the police. However, before the call was made, he received a strange call:
"Xu Guangnian, right? You don't have to look for her anymore. Your daughter is in my hands now."
"I'm Yang Jinlong, you should have heard of my name, right?"
Xu Guangnian's face lost all color in an instant.
Isn't Yang Jinlong the boss of Jinlong Club?
His daughter was kidnapped by him?
When Xu Guangnian came back to his senses, he was shocked, angry and scared.
For a moment, he thought a lot.
Yang Jinlong probably kidnapped his daughter because of Chen Baozi's failure to collect protection money that night.
He clenched his fists and wanted to scold the other party for his shamelessness, but he was afraid of angering the evil star and hurting his daughter. He quickly suppressed his emotions and asked tremblingly:
"Boss Jinlong, what do you want?"
"My child is innocent, please don't hurt her."
Yang Jinlong chuckled:
"You're pretty good."
"Don't worry, I'm just asking for money. I won't do anything to your precious daughter. If you had known better that day, this wouldn't have happened today."
Taking a deep breath, Xu Guangnian asked:
"How much do you want?"
Yang Jinlong laughed:
"Since you are so happy, I won't beat around the bush with you."
"I will give you an address, and within an hour, you can bring one million in cash. Then we will hand over the money and the person."
"If you are ten minutes late, I will cut off one of her fingers. You can do what you want."
"By the way, don't call the police, otherwise I can't guarantee whether she will be dead or alive when she gets into your hands."
Xu Guangnian's face had already turned pale, and he said without even thinking when he heard this:
"Okay, don't be impulsive. I will bring the money within two hours."
Yang Jinlong snorted and hung up the phone.
Looking at his cell phone that kept ringing, Xu Guangnian sat in the car in a daze for a long time.
Returning to the store in a daze, Xu Guangnian told Ji Xiaojuan what happened.
The couple hugged each other and cried on the spot.
They never imagined that life would bring such a disaster to them.
Fortunately, Xu Guangnian, who has experienced a car accident, has developed a stronger will and spirit than others.
He didn't have time to grieve, so he asked Ji Xiaojuan to scrape together the money the family had recently saved and the money originally planned to purchase goods, and finally managed to collect one million.
Afterwards, the two people took their money and rushed to the address given by Yang Jinlong - Mansion No. 8 without stopping.
In Mansion No. 8, Chen Baozi looked at Xu Guangnian and his wife with a fierce look on his face, then stepped away with a sinister smile, pointed at the door of the closed box and said:
"Boss Xu, come in, our boss has been waiting for you for a long time."
Originally, he wanted to take this opportunity to take revenge for that night, but considering the boss's previous warning, he had no choice but to suppress this idea.
Opening the box door that was pushed open, Xu Guangnian and Ji Xiaojuan swallowed hard.
The two looked at each other and walked in timidly.
In the box, Yang Jinlong was sitting with a big horse and a golden sword. When he saw the two of them, he was like a wolf seeing a sheep, and showed a stern smile:
"Here we go, sit down."
Xu Guangnian made a "pop" sound, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to Yang Jinlong:
"Boss Jinlong, we brought the money, please be kind and let my daughter go."
Ji Xiaojuan also imitated her husband's example, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the aloof and terrifying man, begging for mercy:
"Boss Jinlong, we know we were wrong. From now on, we must pay the protection fee on time. My daughter is innocent. Please let her go."
Yang Jinlong chuckled, waved a boy to come forward, and arrogantly snatched Xu Guangnian's bag containing money.
The boy opened the zipper, checked it to make sure it was correct, and nodded slightly to Yang Jinlong.
Yang Jinlong was extremely satisfied. He crossed his legs and lit a cigarette for himself, then looked sideways at the two Sheng Dou people:
"I accepted the money, but it doesn't matter whether I let your daughter go or not."
As soon as these words came out, Xu Guangnian became furious. He stood up suddenly and glared at Yang Jinlong angrily:
"Boss Jinlong, what do you mean by this? How could you do this!"
The younger brother behind him kicked Xu Guangnian in the knee and pushed him to the ground:
"Kneel down! Our boss hasn't finished speaking yet!"
Xu Guangnian's face turned red with anger. He struggled twice, but couldn't get away. He could only look at Yang Jinlong with red eyes:
"You can't keep your word, I brought you all the money!"
Yang Jinlong spread his hands:
"The money is protection money, and the daughter is another matter."
Xu Guangnian was stunned:
"What else?"
Yang Jinlong didn't say anything. He stood up and walked to the side door. After lightly buttoning the door, he opened the door and invited Ning Hao, who was wearing a white suit, out.
He smiled and said to Xu Guangnian and his wife:
"Let me introduce you, this is Young Master Ning Haoning, yes, the Ning family of our four major families in Dongjiang."
"I invite you here today entirely because of Ning Shao's wishes."
After saying that, he bowed respectfully to Ning Hao, then stepped aside and gave up the court to the young master.
Ning Hao walked up to Xu Guangnian and his wife, looked at them with a smile, and said in a very polite tone:
"Boss Xu, I'm really sorry for inviting you over in this way."
"I do this because I just want to discuss a cooperation with you."
Looking at Ning Hao in front of her, Ji Xiaojuan couldn't help but think of her husband's car accident and the long-awaited compensation, and her eyes suddenly turned red.
A burst of anger rushed to her forehead, and Ji Xiaojuan blurted out:
"Don't even think about cooperation!"
"Even if we die, we won't..."
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Xu Guangnian raising his hand.
Holding back his anger, Xu Guangnian looked at Ning Hao and asked:
"Where is my daughter?"
