Chapter 503: Chapter 505: Please, Wife

[Busy again today, there are only two updates, sorry]

"What do you want me to do?"

Murong Fei lifted her head, her gaze meeting Qin Tian’s as they locked eyes.

"If nothing unexpected happens, the kidnappers will call me again shortly. When that happens, I’ll tell them you are helping me prepare the money and have them contact you. Then, you’ll transfer one million US dollars to them each day, dragging it out for twenty days," Qin Tian said.

"After twenty days of stalling, then what?" Murong Fei seemed to guess what Qin Tian planned to do, her expression slightly changing.

"To buy us time. I’ve already located the exact place where my people are being held after being kidnapped. My men and I will go rescue my brothers. And then, we’ll find the kidnappers and let them know what happens to those who target me!"

As Qin Tian spoke the last words, a flash of murderous intent swept across his face, and a chill wind also blew past Murong Fei’s cheek, causing her to flinch.

She hadn’t expected that Qin Tian, with killing intent on his face, could be so frightening.

"President Fei..."

Qin Tian, seeing that Murong Fei’s look towards him was somewhat different, softly called her.

Murong Fei snapped back to reality, "You—you’re going to take a risk again?"

"It’s an inevitable matter. My brothers have been kidnapped; can I stand by and do nothing? You might think calling the police is an option, but do you believe the police can resolve a kidnapping overseas? I believe I am more reliable than the police," Qin Tian said, staring intently at Murong Fei.

Murong Fei just watched him speaking word by word, feeling the courage and resolution Qin Tian had to risk his life for his friends. She knew he was telling the truth—with Qin Tian’s abilities, he was indeed much more reliable than the police.

"Alright then, do what you think is right, and just be careful. You want me to stall the kidnappers, I promise you I will," Murong Fei said, as her eyes shimmered with a tender light, making Qin Tian profoundly moved. He realized the current Murong Fei had indeed changed too much from before.

"Thank you, President Fei."

Upon hearing Murong Fei’s words, Qin Tian got so excited that he couldn’t help but give her a bear hug.

Murong Fei, caught off guard, was hugged by Qin Tian in the office, which startled her, but she didn’t dodge. Her eyes closed gently, her face blushed, yet her lips were touched by a faint, happy smile.

"I’ll give you whatever you ask for, thank you so much."

Qin Tian, embracing Murong Fei, said with a sigh.

A warmth filled Murong Fei’s heart, and there was something she wanted to say but didn’t: "For you, I am willing to give up my life..."

The two shared their "world for two" in the office for less than ten minutes.

Finally, Qin Tian’s phone rang, and as he expected, it was the kidnappers calling.

"You are Qin Tian, correct? Is the money ready?" On the other end was the same middle-aged man’s broken Chinese.

Getting straight to the point, the kidnapper brought up the money at the outset.

Qin Tian collected his thoughts, turned on the speakerphone, and said with a sincere tone, "Friend, you suddenly want twenty million US dollars, how could I possibly get you that amount in such a short time? I’m in Huaxia, not the United States; it’s impossible to gather so much money so quickly."

"Tell me, how much have you gathered?" As Qin Tian had guessed, this group of kidnappers seemed to be after the money.

"Two million US dollars," Qin Tian said.

"Hmph, not bad, able to gather two million US dollars—it seems like someone with money," hearing Qin Tian’s response, the middle-aged man just sneered, then suddenly changed his tune and said, "Without twenty million, I won’t release your person. First, transfer that two million to an international account, I’ll text you the account number. Remember, it’s best not to track it, and it’s best not to let me know you’ve alerted the police, otherwise..."

"I know the rules of the business, rest assured, as long as you guarantee my brother’s safety, the money, I’ll try my best to gather it," Qin Tian reassured the middle-aged man.

"I don’t have that much money, I’ve asked my friend to help gather it, you talk to her," after Qin Tian finished speaking, he gestured for Murong Fei, who was standing by his side, to speak, Murong Fei said, "I am Qin Tian’s friend, these next few days I will... help to borrow money, you must ensure the safety of Qin Tian’s brother."

"Heh, you’re just friends?" At this moment, the middle-aged man actually started gossiping.

However, Qin Tian knew that he was probing.

"She is my wife... all the money in our house is managed by her... so..." Qin Tian looked at Murong Fei, seriously lying.

"Hmph, I don’t care who manages the money, if you can’t gather twenty million, your person, will have to die!"

"Don’t worry, I’ll try my best to gather money these next few days, give me a little extra time..."

"As long as the money can be gathered, I trust you won’t dare to play any tricks. Doot doot doot..."

Possibly for fear of Qin Tian tracking his location, the middle-aged man immediately hung up after speaking.

Not long after, Qin Tian received a strange text message on his phone, it was an account number.

Qin Tian passed his own phone to Murong Fei, seriously instructing, "You handle transferring the money to him, try to stall him as much as possible, most importantly, don’t arouse his suspicion. If he asks about me, just say I’ve gone to find friends to gather the money."

Listening to Qin Tian’s serious instructions, Murong Fei took the phone and nodded, "I’ll try my best."

"I’m leaving now..."

Time was pressing, Qin Tian couldn’t delay any longer and turned to leave the house.

At the doorway, he turned back to see Murong Fei still staring blankly at him, he smiled and said, "These next few days, you’ll have to deal with him under the guise of my wife... cough cough, I’m counting on you... wife. I’m off!"

"Pig!"

Just as Qin Tian was about to close the door, Murong Fei called out to him, catching Qin Tian off guard.

"Be careful."

...

Qin Tian bought a new phone, got a new SIM card, and re-established contact with Xiao Zhuang and a few others. (Of course, he also told Murong Fei and the others his new phone number)

At this time, Xiao Zhuang and the other two had already landed in Thailand; because there were no direct boats to the small island, they rented a boat to head toward the island.

"Take care of your own safety; I have a feeling that island is out of the ordinary, there may be a large number of enemies. When nearing the island, try to land via scuba diving," Qin Tian instructed.

"Don’t worry, boss, we know the basics; we all brought scuba gear," Xiao Zhuang responded.

After finishing the call with Xiao Zhuang and the others, Qin Tian first went back to Wolong Mountain to prepare some equipment, and then hurriedly rushed to the airport.

However, as soon as he reached the foot of Wolong Mountain, he encountered a car blocking their way.

"Boss, it looks like it’s Jin Xing and the others in the car ahead," said War Dragon Team member Gou Yufeng, who was preparing to drive Qin Tian to the airport, as he looked back at Qin Tian after spotting the people in the front car.

In the car sat Jin Xing, He Yuzi, and the coldly aloof Mu Yunxi; the three of them had visited Wolong Mountain several times before, so Gou Yufeng recognized them.
