Since he could not communicate with Chu Huan, Zhou Hao did not want to waste time there.
“Don’t go. Give me an explanation. What are you thinking?” Chu Huan asked Zhou Hao loudly.
“If you weren’t still useful…” Zhou Hao shook his head helplessly when he heard the voice behind him.
Chu Ning knew very well that this was a trap that had been carefully set up for her.
Even if she knew Chu Huan’s location, she wouldn’t be able to rescue him in time. It was very likely that Zhou Hao would kill Chu Huan in a very short period.
This was also the reason Chu Ning hadn’t let Chu Yang bring his men to save Chu Huan.
As for calling the police, it was even less efficient. By the time the police rushed over, Chu Huan would have died many times over.
“Sigh.” Chu Ning sighed.
No matter how bad Chu Huan was, he was still her relative. The reason Zhou Hao had captured him was also because of her.
Thinking of this, Chu Ning calmly took out her phone. She planned to communicate with Zhou Hao over the phone.
“Is this Zhou Hao?” After ten seconds of ringing, the call was finally connected.
“Who are you?” Zhou Hao pretended to be surprised.
“State your conditions. What do you want before you’ll let Chu Huan go?” Chu Ning said softly.
At this point, she could only accept Zhou Hao’s request.
“Chu Ning, this is not like you. Aren’t you going to try to save your brother? Or maybe scold me to vent your anger?” Zhou Hao asked with a smile.
Now that he had the bargaining chip, Chu Ning should be the one who was anxious.
“It’s meaningless, Zhou Hao. I’ve chosen to compromise this time, but I still want to tell you that you’ll lose what you’ve obtained through such means.” Chu Ning had no wish to argue meaninglessly.
“At least I won now, didn’t I?” Zhou Hao did not care about what Chu Ning said. If possible, he really wanted to video call Chu Ning. He wanted to see if Chu Ning was distraught at the other end of the phone.
“Yes, you win.” Chu Ning did not deny it.
“Alright, so as a bargaining chip in exchange for your brother, you have to give me Cloud Shopping,” Zhou Hao said indifferently.
“What did you say?” Although Chu Ning asked this, her hand had already subconsciously gripped her phone tightly.
Cloud Shopping was the core of her business.
It could be said that Cloud Shopping was her basis for building a business map.
Without Cloud Shopping, all the subsequent developments would be empty talk.
As for Zhou Hao, the moment he opened his mouth, he wanted to cut off her path to rise up.
Chu Ning knew the future of Cloud Shopping very well
“I said, give me your Cloud Shopping. Otherwise, Chu Huan will die,” Zhou Hao said softly.
“How is it? Chu Ning, can you bear to? Do you want me to make a decision for you?” Zhou Hao said in a relaxed tone.
Of course, he knew how great Cloud Shopping was.
The more he understood, the more he was faintly afraid and filled with dread.
This was because Chu Ning could really surpass the Zhou family with this, and it wouldn’t take long.
Although Zhou Hao said so, he did not really plan for Cloud Shopping to really be in his hands.
After all, in his opinion, this was something that could not be exchanged for no matter how many lives were lost.
Sometimes, money could really be used to measure a person’s worth.
Zhou Hao felt that a thousand or even ten thousand Chu Huans added together would not be as important as Cloud Shopping.
Chu Ning’s mind was also blank.
Cloud Shopping was the result of her many days and nights of hard work. She had made so many preparations in the early stages, and now she could see a ray of hope. However, because of Zhou Hao’s words, she was going to give up Cloud Shopping.
In silence, Chu Ning didn’t answer, and Zhou Hao didn’t continue to urge her, but the two of them didn’t hang up the phone.
Chu Ning was undergoing a violent struggle internally.
This was where her blood, sweat, and tears were.
“What if it’s the other brothers or Mom and Dad? I don’t think I’ll hesitate like this,” Chu Ning thought to herself in a self-deprecating manner.
How ironic!
Chu Huan had always been against her; now Chu Ning had the right to decide his life and death.
Chu Ning took a deep breath. She suddenly felt relieved and said in a relaxed tone, “I agree to your conditions.”
“Hmm? What did you say?” On the other end of the phone, Zhou Hao was slightly stunned.
This time, he wondered if he had heard wrongly.
“I said, I promise to give you Cloud Shopping,” Chu Ning repeated.
“Really?” Zhou Hao asked uncertainly.
He really had not expected Chu Ning to agree to his request.
After all, he had not expected Chu Ning to agree to his suggestion.
If it were him, even if it was his parents’ lives, he would not give Cloud Shopping to others!
