Li Jingran also fell into deep thought.
Who on Earth was so bold!
“Just as the two were discussing the matter, Xu Wanwan’s cell phone suddenly rang. ”
It was an unfamiliar number.
Xu Wanwan glanced at Li Jingran and picked up the call.
“Who is it?”Xu Wanwan said in a low voice.
“”Prepare ten million in cash. Two hours later, put it in the XX bar on the east side of the city.” ”
“After that, she hung up the phone. ”
“Xu Wanwan wanted to ask about Xu Yanzhi, but the other side didn’t give her the chance. ”
“This!”Xu Wanwan frowned.
“This was the first time she had encountered such a thing. For a moment, her mind was in a daze. ”
“Will... will there be any problems with me and Yan Zhi?”Xu Wanwan asked worriedly.
“”No. If they were experienced, they definitely wouldn’t do anything to harm a hostage at this time, unless they didn’t want the money. If they were newbies, then there was no need to worry. Under normal circumstances, they wouldn’t have the courage.” ”
Xu Wanwan removed the needle from the back of her hand. This sudden action gave Li Jingran a fright.
“”Wanwan, what are you doing?” ”
“I’m going to the bank now.”
“”Don’t worry, I’ve already sent people to prepare.” ”
“Thinking of what the other party had said, Li Jingran started to feel uneasy. ”
“”You can’t go by yourself later, it’s too dangerous.” ”
“Xu Wanwan shook her head. “Who else can go if I don’t want to? As long as you can save me, I’m willing to do whatever you want me to do.” ”
Li Jingran naturally understood Xu Wanwan’s thoughts.
“It was just that he didn’t even know how many people were on the other side. If he rashly let Xu Wanwan go, it might cause even greater danger. ”
“”No, it’s too dangerous.”Without even thinking, Li Jingran directly rejected him once again. ”
“Xu Wanwan was not angry at Li Jingran’s slightly tough tone, because she knew that Li Jingran only said that because he cared about her. ”
“”Although the content of the phone call just now is not much, it also proves a point.” ”
“After hearing what Xu Wanwan said, Li Jingran did not reply. Instead, he looked at Xu Wanwan and signaled her to continue. ”
“”To be able to know my cell phone number and call me so quickly, it must be because they have already investigated me in advance. From a certain perspective, their goal is to target me.” ”
“Thinking of this, Xu Wanwan sighed faintly and then continued, “They just want money from me. I really don’t know what they are thinking...” ”
“Li Jingran’s expression remained solemn, but he might have thought of something more. ”
“”It shouldn’t be that simple. To be able to make you prepare ten million so cleanly, it means that the other party knows that you can definitely prepare it.” ”
“”However, there’s another condition. Within two hours, if you don’t have a long-term connection with the bank, the bank usually has no way to prepare ten million in cash within two hours. “So, this proves one thing. They know that you can’t prepare, but I can.” ”
“After hearing what Li Jingran said, Xu Wanwan’s eyes instantly widened. ”
“So you’re saying that they know about your existence?”
“Seeing Xu Wanwan’s expression, Li Jingran couldn’t help but chuckle. Then, he raised his hand and gently scratched the tip of Xu Wanwan’s nose. ”
“”Since they’ve already investigated you, how could they not know about my situation? So, their purpose is to target the two of us.” ”
“After saying this, Li Jingran used alcohol cotton to wipe the eye of the needle on the back of Xu Wanwan’s hand, and then applied a band-aid to it. ”
“”Fortunately, the Doctor said that these are all superficial wounds. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have agreed to let you leave the hospital.” ”
“Xu Wanwan nodded. Her mind was full of thoughts about Xu Yanzhi, so she didn’t pay attention to what Li Jingran said at all. ”
Time flew by.
“From a certain point of view, Li Jingran’s special assistant was indeed very efficient. ”
“In short, it didn’t take long for everything to be ready. ”
“”I’ll go with you,”Li Jingran said after everything was arranged and put in the car. ”
“Okay.”
“Xu Wanwan didn’t refuse. After all, with one more person, if something happened later, at least she would have more protection. ”
“However, before the two of them got in the car, Xu Wanwan received another text message on her phone. ”
“”If you come alone and bring one more person with you, I’ll make Xu Yanzhi Feel Pain.” ”
It had to be said that the person on the other side of the phone had completely grasped Xu Wanwan’s inner thoughts.
“Knowing that Xu Wanwan cared about Xu Yanzhi very much, she would use Xu Yanzhi as a shield to negotiate cooperation with her no matter what she did. ”
“I’ll go alone.”
Li Jingran glanced at Xu Wanwan’s expression and knew that her thoughts were very firm at this time.
He only hesitated for a moment before he nodded in agreement with Xu Wanwan.
“”Alright, I’ll follow behind you. Don’t be afraid.” ”
“Okay.”
“When Xu Wanwan drove to the development area in the east of the city, it was already completely dark outside. ”
“Neon lights were everywhere, beautiful, prosperous, and peaceful. ”
“However, in this bustling area, there were disgusting and dirty things hidden in every corner. ”
Xu Wanwan did not expect that she would encounter so many things not long after she returned to China.
She really did not know whether it was because of herself or the feng shui here was not good enough..
“After driving for nearly an hour and forty minutes, they finally arrived at the designated bar. ”
Xu Wanwan got out of the car and looked around. She wanted to see if she could find any suspicious people.
She also wanted to see if Yan Zhi was nearby..
“Of course, she was overthinking everything. With two large boxes of money in her hands, Xu Wanwan got out of the car and walked into the bar. ”
“As soon as she stepped through the door, a deafening sound almost shattered her eardrums. ”
Xu Wanwan subconsciously frowned. She suppressed the discomfort in her heart and continued to walk in.
There were many people.
It gave Xu Wanwan the feeling that the entire city had been swarmed into the bar.
“The smell of cigarettes, perfume, wine, and mixed sweat.. ”
“All sorts of smells were mixed together in this enclosed space, and Xu Wanwan could not bear it. ”
She swallowed several times before she swallowed the urge to vomit.
“Xu Wanwan held two super heavy boxes in her hands. After some thought, she came to a relatively quiet place. ”
