Chapter 2313: Rescuing Miss Yu
Rebirth of a Perfect Future · 第2313章 解救于小姐
What could five million yuan in 2010 do?
Although housing prices in the capital were not low, five million was enough to buy a house there.
Even if it wasn't in a prime location like the Second or Third Ring Road, it was sufficient in the outskirts.
Not only that.
This five million didn't need to be taxed!
And it could also earn Zhao Fusheng's friendship.
As soon as the news broke, both the underworld and the legitimate world in the capital exploded!
"Find people! Find me people!"
"Have any outsiders come here recently?"
"Any news yet?"
"Find them for me, whoever they are, I'll dig three feet into the ground to find them!"
"What's going on? Where did these outsiders come from?"
All kinds of news came pouring in.
All sorts of shady characters and local lowlifes were stirred up.
To them, Zhao Fusheng's status was too far out of reach—a big shot with hundreds of billions in assets could decide their fate with a casual word.
And now, Zhao Fusheng was asking them for help.
For those people, this was an incredibly good piece of news!
No one wanted to be a thug forever.
Everyone has a dream!
To win glory for their wife and children, own a shop on the street, even live in luxury cars and villas.
And this time, they finally got their chance.
"Fusheng, you'd better leave here."
After a few words with the police, Xue Yuanfang came to Zhao Fusheng and said to him.
Zhao Fusheng nodded: "I know."
He naturally understood what Xue Yuanfang meant.
The police would soon set up a tight cordon here.
To be honest, even if he stayed, it wouldn't be of much use.
"Then I'll go back first."
Zhao Fusheng thought for a moment and said to Xue Yuanfang, "You stay here, and keep me updated on any news."
...
...
Back at his residence, Zhao Fusheng couldn't calm down at all.
He kept pacing back and forth in the room.
"Chairman, you..."
Chen Qiuyan looked at Zhao Fusheng and couldn't help asking.
"I'm fine, I'm fine."
Zhao Fusheng waved his hand and said with a bitter smile.
"Chairman, maybe you should have some tea first."
After thinking for a moment, Chen Qiuyan said to Zhao Fusheng, "Since it's already happened, no matter how anxious you are, there's nothing you can do. Why not settle down and prepare. In case they call for a ransom..."
"Right, right, right, you're right."
Zhao Fusheng frowned, nodded, and said to Chen Qiuyan, "Do this: go to the bank immediately and raise some cash. In case they call for a ransom, we'll be prepared."
"Okay."
Chen Qiuyan quickly nodded.
Although she didn't understand the relationship between Zhao Fusheng and Yu Feihong, she had to admit that the two had a very close bond.
Otherwise, Zhao Fusheng wouldn't have reacted so strongly.
After Chen Qiuyan left, Zhao Fusheng sat there, frowning, lost in thought.
He didn't know that at that very moment, Zhang Qian had already led his men out of the city in pursuit.
Inside a black sedan.
"How's the investigation?"
Zhang Qian's expression was calm as he looked at the person in front of him.
"It's been cleared up."
A fierce-looking young man answered Zhang Qian, "Our people got word that a group of southerners quietly moved in near Miss Yu's house."
"Casing the joint?"
Zhang Qian's expression shifted slightly as he looked at the other man.
"Not sure, but we asked around and coordinated with the police. They entered the hotpot restaurant after the chairman and Miss Yu had dinner."
The man continued, "We have reason to suspect they planned this in advance."
"Then it's simple."
Zhang Qian nodded.
To be honest, he was really afraid that this group had decided to kidnap Yu Feihong on a whim.
In other words, if it wasn't premeditated, they might kill her or do something inappropriate.
But since they had meticulously followed Yu Feihong and seized the opportunity to take her away decisively,
it meant they came prepared.
They definitely had a goal!
That was Yu Feihong's lifeline.
"Keep investigating and share the information with the police."
Zhang Qian thought for a moment and instructed his men.
Soon, the information was passed on, and the police, mobilized by Xue Yuanfang, shared some of their leads with Zhang Qian.
Future Group was a well-known company, and Yu Feihong was a famous public figure.
If this incident blew up, the pressure on the police would be enormous.
So they were also very anxious.
The municipal bureau had set up a special task force.
It had to be said, the power of wealth was truly impressive!
Through the surveillance system, they quickly identified the suspect's face.
And Zhao Fusheng got the news immediately.
"Found him?"
Zhao Fusheng was startled.
"Yes."
Xue Yuanfang said on the phone, "The suspect is named Wang Qian, an ex-convict. He's probably after money..."
"Good, good."
Zhao Fusheng nodded repeatedly.
Just then, his phone suddenly vibrated.
"Hold on."
Zhao Fusheng said to Xue Yuanfang, "I need to take a call."
"Okay."
Xue Yuanfang nodded and hung up.
Zhao Fusheng answered the phone.
"It's me."
Yu Feihong's voice came from the other end.
"Sis!"
Zhao Fusheng shot to his feet.
He really hadn't expected to receive a call from Yu Feihong.
"Hello, are you Miss Yu's brother?"
A man's voice came from the phone, very arrogant.
"Yes, I am."
Zhao Fusheng's heart stirred, and his hand holding the phone trembled slightly: "Who are you? Where have you taken my sister?"
"Heh, who I am isn't important. What matters is whether you want to save your sister!"
The person on the phone clearly didn't know Zhao Fusheng's identity.
It seemed Yu Feihong hadn't told him.
"Tell me, what do you want?"
Zhao Fusheng took a deep breath to calm himself.
"I want ten million in cash!"
The other party said in a deep voice, "And don't call the police. You'd better not try any tricks, or I won't mind letting my brothers play a game with Miss Yu. Heh, you don't want your sister's video seen by the whole world, do you?"
"Are you an idiot?"
Zhao Fusheng cursed angrily, "Do you know how much ten million in cash is? At least over two hundred jin. How do you expect me to deliver it? And you probably don't know who I am, do you? Believe me, if you dare to touch a single hair on my sister's head, I'll kill every one of you and send your parents and siblings to join you!"
For some reason, the person on the phone suddenly felt a chill.
He even felt as if he were being stared at by a venomous snake!
He had no doubt that the person on the other end meant every word. At that moment, even though he was used to life and death, he felt the other party wasn't bluffing.
He even felt that if he did something to provoke the other party, they would hunt him down to the ends of the earth, even if he fled abroad!
The call was hung up directly.
Putting down the phone, the scar-faced man looked at Yu Feihong, who was tied up.
"Miss Yu, is that your brother?"
Scarface asked.
"Yes."
Yu Feihong nodded, her face calm, without any panic from being kidnapped.
Or rather, she might have been a bit flustered at first, but when she realized they didn't intend to harm her and were only after money, she calmed down.
After all, since they wanted money, it was manageable.
So when they asked for a phone number, she directly gave them Zhao Fusheng's.
"Damn, some idiot dared to threaten the boss. Bro, should we take this woman..."
A bald man beside Scarface looked viciously at Yu Feihong and made a cutting gesture.
"Shut up!"
Scarface shot a cold glance at his underling and said sternly.
Then, with a smile, he looked at Yu Feihong: "Miss Yu, what does your brother do? He talks big!"
"He's in business."
Yu Feihong said calmly, "Sir, you'd better not think about killing us after getting the ransom. My brother isn't joking. He's very rich, richer than you can imagine. If you don't hurt me, take the money and go, the worst that happens is the police chase you. But if you touch me, I guarantee he'll find you even if you hide at the ends of the earth or deep in the mountains!"
"Damn, that's a big mouth!"
"Hey, big star, are you still sane?"
"Yeah, is this woman crazy?"
Scarface's three underlings laughed on the side.
They all thought Yu Feihong was talking nonsense.
"All of you, shut up!"
Scarface again rebuked his men.
"All of you, get out."
After thinking, he sent them out.
Only he and Yu Feihong remained in the room.
He casually grabbed a chair, sat down in front of Yu Feihong, and looked at her.
"I've seen your movies."
Scarface chuckled and said to Yu Feihong, "I liked your films when I was in prison."
Yu Feihong looked at him in surprise.
She hadn't expected him to be a fan of hers.
"That brother of yours is the chairman of Future Group, right?"
Scarface looked at Yu Feihong and said.
"You investigated me?"
Yu Feihong was somewhat surprised.
She hadn't expected him to know about Zhao Fusheng.
"Heh, of course I know."
Scarface said with a smile, "I planned to kidnap you while I was in prison, so I carefully read your news. After I got out, I even looked up a lot of information and learned to use the internet. I realized that going after someone like him would never work."
That was the truth; he had considered targeting Zhao Fusheng.
But unfortunately,
Zhao Fusheng had many bodyguards when he went out.
And Scarface had observed from a distance that the people around Zhao Fusheng were all former special forces soldiers.
In other words, with his few men, he couldn't even get close to Zhao Fusheng before being taken down.
So he set his sights on Yu Feihong.
He chose her because she was a woman, and aside from her assistant, she didn't have many bodyguards.
Most importantly, Yu Feihong wasn't very vigilant.
Sure enough, he succeeded.
But he hadn't expected Yu Feihong to call Zhao Fusheng instead of her family.
And the person having dinner with Yu Feihong at the hotpot restaurant that day turned out to be Zhao Fusheng!
"How much money does your brother have?"
Scarface asked Yu Feihong.
Yu Feihong shrugged: "I don't know either. No one knows exactly how much he has. I remember we once joked; he said he wanted to buy a sports car. Then he waited a minute..."
"..."
Scarface fell silent.
Damn!
There really was no comparing with the rich.
"Seriously, you'd better listen to him."
Yu Feihong looked at Scarface and said calmly.
"Would he really hunt me down for you?"
Scarface laughed.
Yu Feihong nodded: "He would. He cares most about family and friends."
"Then it seems choosing you was a mistake."
Scarface said to Yu Feihong.
Yu Feihong didn't respond; some things didn't need to be spelled out.
Soon, Scarface stood up and said to Yu Feihong, "Miss Yu, rest assured, as long as your brother prepares the money, I'll keep my word and let you go."
Yu Feihong smiled and ignored him.
Leaving the room and stepping outside, Scarface said to his men, "Keep an eye on her. Remember, don't touch this woman. Her brother is someone we really can't afford to mess with!"
"Bro, who is it?"
The bald man asked in confusion.
He rarely saw Scarface so cautious.
Scarface smiled bitterly: "He's a rich man, extremely rich. Hundreds of billions. If you killed his sister, do you think he'd go crazy?"
None of them spoke.
Even the bald man, who had been most interested in Yu Feihong, shut his mouth obediently.
Money—a few million or tens of millions might inspire envy.
But hundreds of billions!
That number was too terrifying!
It was like these kidnappers.
They might risk their lives for a few million and turn to crime.
But conversely, they also had a way of calculating.
This woman's brother had hundreds of billions—what did that mean?
People worth tens of millions, they dared to covet their wealth.
But a big shot worth hundreds of billions? Scum like them didn't even have the courage to provoke him.
That was the gap!
A natural gap in status!
No matter how vicious they were, as Zhao Fusheng said, they also had families and feared death!
Think about it: an ultra-rich billionaire with hundreds of billions, his sister kidnapped by them, subjected to unspeakable acts, and then killed.
What would happen if that billionaire went mad?
Even if he offered just a few hundred million for their heads, they wouldn't be able to escape!
This wasn't decades ago, when technology was underdeveloped and you could hide without being found.
Nowadays, once you commit a crime, you can't escape the police's eyes. The only difference is whether the police want to bother catching you!
