1267 I Said I Won’t Kill The Hostages
Perhaps it was because she was an outsider.
At this moment, Qiao Sisi’s thoughts and mind were clearer than everyone else’s.
Everyone was shocked by this idea.
It was as if this was the closest to the truth.
“Grandma, is the eldest daughter of the An family that kind of person?” Qiao Sisi asked Xiao Mengxia.
Xiao Mengxia hesitated. “Eldest Miss... she’s not a vicious person. After all, she’s also Old Master’s biological daughter, but she’s very competitive and likes to be flattered by others. Moreover, her personality is more unyielding. She gave birth to An Mingchen and Zhengzheng before marriage, but she’s not afraid of outsiders at all. Although she was always dissatisfied with Old Master’s arrangements before he died, she... doesn’t seem to be that kind of person.”
“How many years have you been in contact with her?” Qiao Sisi asked.
“It’s been many years.” Xiao Mengxia said very seriously. “I also watched the two girls grow up. The eldest girl has a strong personality. Because she still has a deep memory of her mother, she’s more resistant to me. The second girl is aloof from worldly affairs, and the two girls don’t seem to be people who would do such outrageous things.”
Everyone fell silent.
“It’s useless to discuss other families’ matters now. The key is how to save Liangliang.” The Old Master knocked the ground with his walking stick.
“Understanding the bandits’ motives is also one of the ways to save people.” Rong Jinghui actually rolled his eyes at the Old Master. “Otherwise, if the bandits don’t say anything and just waste time, who knows what they will do next?”
“No matter what, the entire C City has been locked down.” Rong Linyi frowned. “We won’t give the other party any chance to leave with Liangliang.”
...
At almost the same time, his subordinate handed a phone to the youth.
“Fourth Master, someone is looking for you.”
The young man took the phone lazily. When he heard the voice on the other end, his expression became serious.
“What are you talking about?”
He asked the other end of the line, “Kill the hostages?”
The surroundings fell silent.
Everyone looked at the youth.
The young man’s expression darkened for a second, but then he lowered his voice and asked, “Why?”
No one knew what the other party said, but everyone saw the young man’s expression darken.
Until finally, he said, “I refuse.”
“When you first found me, you didn’t say that you wanted to kill the hostages. You only said that you wanted me to ensure the other party’s safety. If you want to kill the hostages, find someone else. I can’t do it here.”
Then, he hung up.
The expressions of his subordinates became a little hesitant.
“Fourth Master, the person on the other end of the line... your father doesn’t dare to offend him easily. Anyway, the hostages are already in our hands. If we let them go, it’s easy for them to expose us. If we kill the hostages, it’ll be easier for us to escape unscathed.”
The most experienced man among his subordinates persuaded.
“I said, I won’t kill the hostages.” The young man stood up. “You really want to kill the hostages? Then go and do it.”
His subordinate immediately stopped talking.
Although the client was important, their current leader was a young man.
They were all determined to follow him.
But the young man had just taken a step when his phone rang again.
The subordinate glanced at the number and raised it respectfully. “Fourth Master, it’s still that person.”
The young man picked up the call and said directly, “I’m sorry, I won’t kill the hostages this time. If I’ve offended you in any way, I’ll do something for you for free next time. If you’re unwilling to pay the rest of the fees, then forget it.”
