Chapter 385: Kidnapping of Biological Parents
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Regardless of the circumstances, the lives of Lu Lehua and An Yaoqing were at stake, and they were still their children. It was impossible not to try to save them.
If possible, Grandpa An didn’t want to trouble Nan Yan.
However, there was no choice; the other party’s demands required her to contact them.
Nan Yan remained silent for a moment and said in a calm voice, “Give me the contact information of the kidnappers.”
She truly didn’t want to have any further involvement with the biological parents of the original owner, but since Grandpa An had come to her, she couldn’t just do nothing.
Consider it as repaying the original owner’s debt of gratitude.
“Yanyan, could it be dangerous? What if they want to harm you?” Grandpa An’s tone was filled with worry.
“If they propose any conditions, please don’t agree to them. Let the kidnappers negotiate with Grandfather, and don’t take responsibility upon yourself. Do you understand?” Nan Yan’s previously irritable mood calmed down due to Grandpa An’s concerned words.
She reassured him, “Don’t worry; nothing will happen.”
“Alright, Yanyan, if anything happens, be sure to contact Grandfather promptly. Are you with Ah Lu now? Let him protect you. The kidnappers’ motives are unclear this time, and it may be related to you. You must be careful!”
Grandpa An talked on and on.
After hanging up the phone, Qin Lu asked, “What happened?”
In just a short while, the two of them had regained their composure, and even the romantic atmosphere inside the car carriage had dissipated.
“An Yaoqing and Lu Lehua have been kidnapped,” Nan Yan replied without hiding anything. “I have a feeling that they are targeting me.”
“I’ll contact them first to see what they want.”
“Turn on the speaker.”
Nan Yan raised her eyebrows and glanced at him, noticing the concern in his eyes. She curved her lips slightly and said, “Alright.’
She dialed the contact provided by Grandpa An. After three rings, the call was answered.
Pressing the speaker button, Nan Yan didn’t rush to speak.
Wu Yue was also a clever person. Although he had raised the soundproof divider, the sound from inside the carriage could still be heard.
So when he heard that Nan Yan was going to call the kidnappers and turned on the speaker, he quickly turned off the soft music playing inside the carriage.
After a quiet pause of over ten seconds, the other party couldn’t contain their impatience and spoke first, “Are you Nan Yan?”
Qin Lu placed his hand over Nan Yan’s hand.
Nan Yan raised an eyebrow and glanced at him. In response, Qin Lu gazed at her with affection and a sense of reassurance.
It seemed to say, “Don’t be afraid, I’ve got everything under control…”
The exchange of glances between the two of them lasted only a second. Then,
Nan Yan calmly replied, “Yes, it’s me.”
“I’m sure you know that your parents are in my hands now. If you don’t want them to meet a tragic end, then follow my demands, obey my orders… Click…
Beep beep beep…”
The kidnapper’s call was cut off before they could finish speaking.
“Hello? Hello? Damn it…
The kidnapper was furious, holding the phone and cursing loudly, then walked over to where An Yaoqing and Lu Lehua were tied up, scolding them. “Is Nan Yan really your daughter? Why doesn’t she care about your lives at all?”
An Yaoqing and Lu Lehua had been kidnapped for over four hours. Both of them were tightly bound, sitting huddled and disheveled in a corner. They had been slapped around by the burly kidnappers and were in a daze.
Blindfolded and terrified, tears streamed down their faces.
“I don’t know, I don’t know… Please, spare us, don’t kill us…”
Lu Lehua had never experienced anything like this in her life and was too frightened to think clearly.
An Yaoqing was equally scared and angry.
As the head of the An family, he had never been treated like this before.
It was all because of that wretched girl, Nan Yan!
If it weren’t for her, they wouldn’t have ended up here.
Gritting his teeth, he said with resentment, “You’ve captured us for nothing.
We’ve severed all ties with her, and she won’t care about our lives.”
The kidnapper’s tone grew darker, “So, are you saying that the two of you are useless?”
“Since you’re useless, we will go ahead and kill you.”
They had initially thought that the kidnappers wouldn’t harm them since they knew that they couldn’t use them to threaten Nan Yan. But when they heard those words, An Yaoqing and Lu Lehua were almost paralyzed with fear.
They knew that these people were capable of anything!
Lu Lehua screamed, “Don’t kill me! I’ll give you money, lots and lots of money!”
An Yaoqing was desperate too. With their lives on the line, there was no point in pretending to be tough. They both begged for mercy in low, trembling voices.
On the other side, Nan Yan looked at the disconnected phone call and then turned to Qin Lu.
She didn’t even have a chance to say a word.
“Brother, lives are at stake-” Nan Yan teased him without getting angry.
Qin Lu held her hand in his palm. “I’ll help you rescue them, and I won’t let anything happen to them.”
“Yanyan, leave this matter to me. You don’t need to get involved.”
Even though he knew that Nan Yan had her ways and wasn’t an ordinary person, Qin Lu still worried that she might get hurt.
If the kidnappers were using An Yaoqing and Lu Lehua to threaten her, even if she disliked them, she would still try to save them. This could easily lead to her being manipulated by the kidnappers.
His little girl might appear tough on the surface, but she was actually quite soft-hearted.
“I suspect the people who kidnapped them are related to M Country. Coincidentally, I also need to go to M Country, so I’ll rescue them along the way.”
Nan Yan knew that Qin Lu meant well and didn’t want her to be in danger, but she felt it was better for her to handle this matter. Qin Lu readily agreed, “Then I’ll accompany you.”
“Okay.”
Nan Yan knew she couldn’t refuse him, so she nodded in agreement and then dialed the kidnapper’s number again.
On the kidnapper’s side, he was infuriated, planning to eliminate the useless hostages, An Yaoqing and Lu Lehua, before moving on to abduct others.
After all, he was an outlaw with multiple counts on his head, and a couple more wouldn’t make much difference.
He had already taken out his gun and aimed it at An Yaoqing.
An Yaoqing was immediately petrified.
A puddle formed on the spot where he sat, spreading rapidly and emitting an unpleasant odor.
Just as the kidnapper was about to pull the trigger, his phone rang again.
He picked up his phone, saw the same number as before, and glanced at the two people who were already on the verge of collapse. He temporarily put down his gun and answered the call.
Once connected, he spoke rapidly, apparently afraid that Nan Yan would hang up again.
“You better not play any tricks. If you really don’t care about your parents’ lives, I’ll kill them right now, live-stream it for you to watch. They’ll die right in front of you.”
An Yaoqing and Lu Lehua seemed to understand that Nan Yan’s attitude would determine their fate. They desperately begged for help, choking and gasping for air.
“Nan Yan, save us, we know we were wrong!”
“Quickly agree to his demands, whatever he asks for, just agree. I don’t want to
“Don’t hang up, save us!”
“Nan Yan! You must save us, we’re your biological parents!”
