Chapter 364 Big Actions
“Yes, I did refuse Ye Hongjun, but I failed to refuse another man. That man found me and told me to accept Ye Hongjun’s request. He also promised that he would give me 1.9 million yuan after the mission was completed so that I would have two million in total, plus the one hundred thousand yuan from Ye Hongjun. I was driven by greed that I accepted the deal.”
Seeing that Cheng Hu and Wang Yang finally stopped burying him, Gouzi spat out the soil and sands in his mouth and let out a sigh of relief.
“Who us that man? Is it Qian Le?”
Ding Ning finally understood the reason that Ye Hongjun struck the sisters when they were down was that he wanted to get three million yuan from Qian Le.
“No... no.”
Gouzi wanted to lie again, but when he saw Ding Ning’s eyes, which seemed able to see through him, he dared not to lie again and told the truth. “The man is Shangguan Lu.”
.
Ding Ning frowned. He did not know the name at all. “Who is Shangguan Lu? Why did he want to kidnap the Ye sisters?” he yelled calmly.
Gouzi looked frightened and replied with a bitter expression on his face, “He is... an underling of Qin Canglan, the young master of the Qin Family. I don’t know why they wanted to kidnap the Ye sisters. He did not want them and just told me to hand the sisters to Ye Hongjun after I caught them. He also told me to pretend that he had never come to me.”
“An underling of Qin Canglan?”
Ding Ning looked grave and clenched his fists. “It seems Qin Canglan hasn’t given up his evil thoughts. Looks like I should teach him a lesson now.” he thought to himself.
Nevertheless, Ding Ning still didn’t understand why Shangguan Lu spent 1.9 million to kidnap the Ye sisters yet did not touch them.
“Was he trying to provoke me into dealing with Ye Hongjun or Qian Le?” Ding Ning wondered, and at this point, things appeared more confusing to him.
Since Gouzi was freaked out at the moment, Ding Ning believed that he dared not to lie to him. Moreover, he had been observing him all along, so, he thought his words trustable.
“He also said that whether I succeeded or not, I must not speak his name out. Big brother, this is all I know. Shangguan Lu is a member of the Qin Family. It’s as easy as to kill an ant for him to kill me. Please let me off, I beg you. I’ll leave Ninghai at once and never come back. Please.”
Gouzi went down to his knees and kept kowtowing. He dared not to stay in Ninghai any longer for he betrayed Shangguan Lu, and he only hoped that he could get away and never come back before Shangguan Lu found out his betrayal.
“I’ll send you to a safe place—prison. It’s the best place for you to stay in. It’s a serious crime to kidnap others, so reflect on yourself in jail.”
Ding Ning’s reply was out of Gouzi’s expectation. He thought that these people would not call the police since they had killed Xiaoliu and Bangzi. After all, killing was a more serious crime than kidnapping.
However, when he was in confusion, he saw Cheng Hu walk out smilingly with Xiaoliu and Bangzi, both of whom were tightly tied by a rope.
“You... you didn’t die? I know, you colluded with them to cheat me.”
Gouzi did not realize what had happened until now. With his fingers pointing at Xiaoliu and Bangzi, he was so angry that he almost spat out blood.
“Don’t blame us, Brother Gouzi. They have promised to give you two million, yet you told me that they would just give you one million. It’s you who cheated us first. Moreover, nobody wants to die since there is a hope of survival. We didn’t know who was behind all this, so, we have to collude with them to survive,” Bangzi said in a sneering tone, glaring at Gouzi without any fear in his eyes.
.
“Hump! We trusted you so much. You promised us that you would make all of us rich, yet, you just used us to make money for you. Chen Ergou, we are from the same town. Don’t you feel ashamed to cheat us like this?” Xiaoliu scolded angrily.
.
“You... you... pushed me to a dead end!”
Gouzi thumped his chest and stamped his feet. He lowered his head in upset. As the saying said, having a powerful opponent was nothing to fear, yet having a weak teammate was.
Xiaoliu and Bangzi had just come to Ninghai and didn’t know how terrifying the Qin Family was. Now, Gouzi knew he would die anyway even if he hid in jail since he had betrayed the Qin Family. He only hoped that the Qin Family would not pay much attention to him, an insignificant person.
However, his hope fled when he heard Ding Ning ask “Did you record it?” and the Ye sisters answer “Yes” with cell phones in their hands.
“Boohoo! Boohoo!”
The police arrived. After receiving Ding Ning’s call, Xiao Nuo immediately ordered the police nearby hurried there. The police took Gouzi and his companions away for interrogation, and what waited for those criminals was the punishment from the law. The Ye sisters also followed the police to record a statement.
Ding Ning delivered the testimony Gouzi made to Xiao Nuo. However, other policemen did not believe it. After all, Qian Le and the Qin Family were involved in this, and it was not easy to deal with them.
For this, Xiao Nuo called Ding Ning on purpose to praise him and said that Ding Ning did well by handing the kidnappers to the police and that she could give him a satisfying answer.
Nevertheless, she was disturbed by the question that what was the relationship between Ding Ning and the Ye sisters. Before, Ding Ning helped the sisters to deal with Gu Tianqi and his son, and this time, he saved them out of trouble. Xiao Nuo could hear their sweet words on the other side of the phone.
To answer Xiao Nuo’s question, Ding Ning explained courageously that he could not stand by and watch someone he knew fall into trouble since everyone should defend the weak against the strong.
Noticing that there was no reply from the other side of the phone, Ding Ning immediately changed his attitude and said in a playful tone, “Hey, are you jealous again?”
“Hell no! I will never be jealous of others just because of you!”
Xiao Nuo argued in anger, but it could be told from her tone that she felt a little shy.
“Well, I’d like to see you being jealous because of me. It shows that you care about me.”
Xiao Nuo turned speechless upon hearing Ding Ning’s shameless words. After a long while in silence, she replied in a shy tone, “I don’t care about you at all. Hump! I got to hung up, bye!”
On hearing the busy signal from the other side of the phone, Ding Ning shook his head with a bitter smile and thought that this girl with a big butt did have two faces.
In Dunhuang Bar, Ye Hongjun and Shao Guli were restless like ants on a hot pan. According to his plan, it things went smoothly, Gouzi should have sent the Ye sisters to the designated place. However, he had not heard of any news from them yet, and he could not get through with Gouzi either. All this made Ye Hongjun and Shao Guli very uneasy.
If not for that they had spent all their money and energy on Dunhuang Bar, they would have escaped away in fear.
.
As a woman, Shao Guli was more agitated. She muttered in a low voice, “What’s wrong with Chen Ergou? Why hasn’t he completed such a small task? Could it be that something bad happened to him?”
“No, he should be fine. These two sisters have little contact with that rich young master must because he got bored with them. So, nothing wrong happened. Chen Ergou must be delayed by something.”
Though Ye Hongjun felt uneasy as well, he forced himself to calm down and comforted himself. He was a clever man. Before he made the plan to kidnap the Ye sisters, he had kept an eye on them personally. Because he didn’t see the sisters contact Ding Ning, he thought that Ding Ning got bored with them and abandoned them. Therefore, he finally took a risk kidnapping them.
In his opinion, nothing would go wrong even he kidnapped the sisters, who had no backup, and even if Sun Lanying called the police, they wouldn’t find anything. After all, he was the sisters’ third uncle, so the police would not suspect him.
“Hey, do you think that Chen Ergou and his companion haven’t come because they covet the sisters’ beauty?”
Shao Guli said with worries and continued, “If the sisters are rendered seriously wounded, how could we explain it to Childe Qian?”
“Don’t worry. Chen Ergou was a sensible man. Even if they assault the sisters, they would not go too far. Besides, those two bitches have been other’s mistresses for long, so they are not virgins from long ago. Childe Qian must know this as well. It will be fine as long as we don’t hurt the sisters too badly.”
Upon hearing Shao Guli’s words, Ye Hongjun was no longer worried. He said to himself that he could not get through with Chen Ergou must because Chen Ergou was enjoying his time with the two sisters and not because something bad had happened to him.
“You’re right. It’s just that I thought the whole thing so weird. Childe Qian is so arrogant and domineering, why didn’t he go to deal with the rich young man who kept those two bitches as his mistresses but turn to trouble us?” Shao Guli said, greatly confused.
.
“Didn’t you see that my nieces haven’t contacted that young man for long? That man must go to hide somewhere so that Childe Qian couldn’t find him and have to trouble us.”
Ye Hongjun made the guess and thought he was true.
“Well, it could be explained only in this way. I hope that Chen Ergou would not torture the sisters too badly. As long as we hand the sisters to Childe Qian, our business will be done, and we will need to care for nothing but running our bar.”
Looking at the bar that had been just expanded and renovated, Shao Guli took a deep breath with pleasure as if she had smelled the smell of a lot of money.
With a bang, the door of their bar was kicked open, and a group of policemen armed with loaded guns came in.
Ye Hongjun and his wife shivered all over and looked at each other with a pale face. They looked in despair and failed to catch what the leading policeman said when they were handcuffed.
That night, Xiao Nuo leading her team rushed into the yard of the Qian Family with a serious face. Faced with the flattering smiles from the Qians, she arrested Qian Le, the Fourth Childe of Qian Family, and took him away for interrogation without any mercy.
“Grandpa, save me!”
Seeing that Xiao Nuo came to arrest him personally, Qian Le was panic-stricken and asked his grandpa for help in a crying tone.
Though he did not participate in the kidnapping, he was an insider of it. What’s more, he was so rebellious all these years that he seduced many twin sisters either by offering them money or drugging them. More importantly, there were two pairs of juvenile twin sisters among his victims. Besides, he even sold drugs secretly through his family business because he did not have enough money for his extravagant life.
Master Qian looked grave, and after a long while in silence, he ordered, “Call Yaoyao. Xiaole is her cousin brother. She would not stand by and see him fall into trouble.”
“Master, bad news!”
Troubles came in succession. Just when Master Qian was thinking about turning to Xiaoyao for help, Qian Gui, his housekeeper, ran into the room out of breath. He did not speak until he had panted for a long while. “Our casinos are closed down by the police. All the guests have been taken away. Our treasury has been sealed up as well. All our current, which is about 1.3 billion, has been confiscated. And... drugs were founded in our casinos. All our properties are sealed up for further investigation.”
“Drugs? How could there be drugs in our casinos?”
The ever-calm Master Qian held Qian Gui by the collar and shouted himself hoarse with his eyes bloodshot.
“It’s Fourth Childe. He sold drugs in our casinos secretly.”
Qian Gui answered timidly in a muttering tone. He certainly knew that Qian Le sold drugs in the casinos, but he kept silence toward it considering that Master Qian doted on Qian Le so much. He had not expected that his silence would bring a disaster to them.
“Bastard!”
Master Qian trembled all over and scolded. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.
“Master!”
“Grandpa!”
“Dad!”
The people of the Qian Family all turned pale with shock. They went forward and surrounded Master Qian, calling him.
Master Qian was the backbone of the Qian Family. After he fainted, others of the family were puzzled and did not know what to do.
They all trembled in sadness and fear with a bad foreboding as they knew their family was about to collapse.
