Qiao Yin looked at the knife, knowing she couldn’t claim she was worthless now, no matter what.
She imitated Lan Yuyi’s demeanor and declared convincingly, “I’m Lu Lingche’s wife, he’s my husband, and he loves me. He’ll pay you to save me; you can’t harm me otherwise you won’t get a cent.”
Considering his grandparents, Lu Lingche wouldn’t really leave her to die, would he?
The kidnapper gazed at Qiao Yin and then Lan Yuyi, uncertain about who was really worth anything.
The young kidnapper who had been silent, suddenly spoke up, “Dad, they both should be worth something. Keep them both, don’t kill them.”
“No, we can’t manage both. If one escapes, our location will be revealed!”
He wielded his knife, wavering between Qiao Yin and Lan Yuyi.
Lan Yuyi was shaking all over, even her voice trembled, “Don’t kill me, I’m really worth money! She, she’s lying to you. Lu Lingche doesn’t even like her; marrying her was only to appease his family. Trust me, keeping me is more valuable than keeping her!”
The kidnapper, swayed by her words, pressed his sharp knife against Qiao Yin’s throat.
Qiao Yin could only feel the cold blade against her neck. A slight movement and the thin blade could sever her throat, sending her off to meet the King of Hell.
Fear is a human instinct.
Yet, Qiao Yin fought hard to control this instinct, hardly caring about Lan Yuyi’s betrayal, and calming the kidnapper in as steady a voice as she could manage, “Don’t act rashly. Keeping us both alive benefits you. One person can be exchanged for one million, so two people can be exchanged for two million.”
Who would’ve thought her words would enrage the kidnapper who roared, “I don’t want one million, I want one billion! One billion, understand! All you rich people deserve to die! Killing you guys is doing a service for the poor! I’m doing a good deed!”
The blade grazed Qiao Yin’s throat, causing searing pain.
All she could do was endure it, continuing to say, “At least wait until you’ve received the money before you kill. If you have the money from the rich, you can keep some for yourself or help the poor. Killing me now doesn’t benefit you.”
After hearing her, this time the kidnapper didn’t erupt in anger but instead removed the knife from Qiao Yin’s throat.
He glared darkly at Lan Yuyi and suddenly burst out laughing.
Lan Yuyi shuddered under his gaze, her face devoid of all color, “W-why are you laughing?”
“You’re Lan Yuyi, right? You really are a piece of work, urging me to kill Lu Lingche’s wife, so you can take her place? Hahahaha, I told you all rich people are no good, all filthy inside, all of you deserve to go to hell!”
“No! You’re just spouting nonsense! I don’t want to be here. I have a stomachache. Let me go, I need to go to the hospital.”
When she pulled this trick at the Lu’s, everyone, including Lu Lingche, would immediately become anxious. They would even stay up all night just to make sure nothing happened to her.
Unfortunately, the cruel and heartless kidnapper didn’t fall for her act.
“Stomachache? Are you about to miscarry? If that kid’s gone, will President Lu still pay to get you back? You won’t be of much value then. I’ll just send you off first. You’re wailing and sobbing are hurting my head.”
Lan Yuyi was so scared that she immediately stopped crying, “Don’t kill me, I’m not in pain anymore! I won’t miscarry, I am valuable!”
Satisfied, the kidnapper nodded. He took out his mobile and asked Lan Yuyi, “What’s President Lu’s number?”
Lan Yuyi’s mind went blank. She didn’t know!
Nowadays, all numbers are stored in cell phones. Who bothers to memorize them? She only remembered her parents’ numbers, not Lu Lingche’s!
Helpless, she turned to look at Qiao Yin..
