Chapter 1435

1435 Refuse to Give Up on the Treasure

After Situ Zhong and Zhang Xin left the Xie family manor, the more they thought about the matter, the more upset they became. They were unable to calm down.

Situ Zhong cursed: “Damn it! Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling ruined all of our plans!”

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xin commented: “I told you about this earlier. Even though Jian Yiling looks harmless, she’s actually very sinister and treacherous.”

“Well, who knew that little b*tch was a descendant of the Xie family?!” Situ Zhong exclaimed. Situ Zhong never expected that anyone from the Xie family would still be alive. In addition to this, never in a thousand years did he expect Jian Yiling to be the descendant either!

Now, all their plans were destroyed.

As the Xie family manor was now Jian Yiling’s property, they had no way to locate the piece of vellum.

Despite this, Situ Zhong was not a person who would admit defeat easily. He was very prideful and looked down on merchant families like the Zhai family and the Jian family.

He also had been searching for this treasure for a long time. He couldn’t just give up on it now!

“Now that we can’t search the Xie family manor anymore, we will have no way to find that piece of vellum,” Zhang Xin said in disappointment.

Not only were they unable to find clues to the treasure, but they also lost a hundred million dollars.

What could they do?

After a bit of thought, Situ Zhong said: “That little b*tch’s grandma is a member of the Xie family. She probably knows the whereabouts of that piece of vellum. If we kidnap that little b*tch, we can demand for her grandma to hand over the piece of vellum. That would be much easier than locating it ourselves.”

Upon hearing this suggestion, Zhang Xin exclaimed: “Are you crazy? That’s not legal! You shouldn’t kidnap people! If something goes wrong, you’d be in a lot of trouble!”

“Risk and return come hand in hand. If you want to achieve things, you can’t be scared of everything! You’re such a coward. In fact, you’re wimpier than those street gangsters,” Situ Zhong mocked.

“But even if you’re willing to take the risk, Jian Yiling has so many bodyguards protecting her. How can you possibly kidnap her? If you investigate the matter, you will quickly discover how many people the Zhai family and the Jian family have sent to protect her. Furthermore, Zhai Yunsheng is super good at fighting. So how on earth do you plan to kidnap her?”

Situ Zhong was dreaming if he wanted to kidnap Jian Yiling.

After all, when Zhang Xin was competing against Jian Yiling, he wanted to make moves against her research team. However, he quickly discovered he couldn’t do anything to her.

Upon hearing this, Situ Zhong’s face sank.

He knew Zhang Xin was telling the truth.

Even though the Jian family and the Zhai family were families that just became powerful and influential in recent years, he had to admit that it was difficult to meet them head-on.

After thinking a bit longer, Situ Zhong suggested: “Why don’t we kidnap someone close to her then? Surely they don’t have that many people protecting them at all times.”

Zhang Xin replied: “Most of Jian Yiling’s brothers are quite strong and her only sister-in-law is also capable of fighting. Taking down a few ordinary bodyguards would pose no problem to them. As for the elders of the Jian family, they rarely go out...”

After all, if they could kidnap Grandma Jian, why would they need to kidnap Jian Yiling in the first place?

“Furthermore, if we know she’s a member of the Xie family, everyone else probably knows by now as well. How will we get a chance to kidnap her?”

Kidnapping people around Jian Yiling was easier said than done.
