BXBX NOVEL Chapter 304 A Plan Is Hatched
"Good point," Yue Niang said, nodding in agreement. She was a woman that hated waste. "If we got rid of you, chances are whoever wanted to kidnap Sun Jingwei and my daughter would know that you failed. They might just send someone else to finish the job!"
"Auntie, what do you and Uncle have in mind?" Jingwei asked curiously.
"We\'ll get you -" Tai Cheng gave Ding Fei an expectant, cheerful look - "to contact your Boss, tell him the mission is a success. If necessary, we\'ll tie Jingwei and my daughter up to make it look like they\'ve been captured. When the culprit comes to get you, Jingwei will get his people to apprehend him."
Jingwei blinked. That was a pretty good idea, though he doubt that Wu Shang Jing would be dumb enough to come in person, assuming he was even the one responsible.
"Meanwhile, we can\'t stay here. They already know where we live and could send people to finish the job. Jingwei, you own a private jet, yes? Is it possible for you to fly all of us out of this place?" Yue Niang asked.
"Huh? Mom, you want us to pack up and move? In the middle of the night?" Tai Xuan exclaimed, his eyes widening in shock. Beside him, Xin Yu was also baffled. Was her mother-in-law undergoing a mid-life crisis? What sort of decision making skill was this?
"That depends on Jingwei," Yue Niang then turned to Jingwei with a raised eyebrow. "So, can you do it? Get your people to fly us all to Shanghai as quickly as possible?"
Jingwei spluttered as everyone turned to look at him. "Maybe? How soon are we talking about? Tomorrow morning?"
"No, we don\'t have that much time to spare. I want us out of this house in the next two hours."
At this announcement, everyone\'s eyes bulged out in shock. Everyone except her husband anyway, who understood the necessity of making a quick getaway in case the cops started knocking on doors, or worse, when their enemies decided to send someone more competent to finish the job.
"Mom, that\'s just ridiculous!"
"Why do we need to move so urgently?"
"Where are all of you going to stay?"
A litany of complaints burst from their lips. Yue Niang held up a palm, and they fell silent. Before she could continue, Ding Fei hastily asked. "Can we come along too? For medical care. I promise, we\'ll be on our best behavior! We can\'t stay here!"
"Of course I\'m not bringing you along," Yue Niang said flatly. "How do you expect us to transport the seven of you? And if some of you die on the way there, wouldn\'t we be murderers? I\'m not traveling with a corpse!"
Ding Fei deflated against the cupboard. "If we see a doctor we won\'t be corpses…" He grumbled to himself, looking so pathetic that Jingwei\'s heart twinged.
"Maybe we can send them to the hospital first?" Jingwei asked. "How about all seven of you pretend to be in a gang fight with each other? Then you can get treated while all of us leave the place."
Ding Fei glanced up at Sun Jingwei at his words. It was as though the fluorescent light over his head illuminated a halo around him, bathing him in holy aura. His saviour was here!
"Yes! Yes we will! Oh thank you thank you thank you!"
"Don\'t be too nice to them," Yue Niang scolded, and Ding Fei saw his buoyant hopes rapidly sinking back into the ocean. "These people tried to kidnap you and my daughter."
"We won\'t do it again!" Ding Fei promised, frantically putting up his bloody hand to swear to them, looking at Yue Niang with intense seriousness from his one eye. "I swear, we will never work with whoever is responsible for this! As long as you get us medical care and don\'t throw us into prison, we\'ll do whatever you say! We\'ll be your people! Actually, even if you throw us into prison, we won\'t implicate you at all! We\'ll give up our employer instead!"
"Aish, criminals these days. No backbone or willpower." Tai Cheng shook his head in disappointment. "They don\'t make them the same way anymore."
Xue Ning raised an eyebrow at her father\'s words. This was a very strange thing to comment on, it was as strange as her mother\'s anti-police comment, and their discussion of best body disposal matters. She vowed to quiz her parents after they left the gory hellhole that was her childhood bedroom.
"Please don\'t let me die…" Ding Fei began to blubber, his earlier bravado fading. His lower lip trembled, and to Xue Ning\'s horror, he started to weep. "I\'m only 23… I can\'t die like this… I already have one eye….and my buddies… they\'re all so young…please…."
He went on his knees, grabbing Jingwei\'s thighs with his hands. Ding Fei had no shame left, only a desperate need to ensure the survival of himself and his team. Forget hugging a thick thigh, he would even suck Sun Jingwei\'s dick if it meant he agreed.
"Please have mercy! Bring us with you!"
Jingwei looked down at the man who was sadly sobbing into his thigh. "There…there…" He said awkwardly, not knowing what to do. He shot Yue Niang a pleading glance. Could he really not afford to spare them a bit of mercy? They did need medical care! That empty eye socket could get infected, if it hadn\'t already been.
Yue Niang rolled her eyes. This future son-in-law of hers was just too softhearted for her taste. Her poor daughter better be prepared to put her foot down in future, if not Sun Jingwei was going to fill her home with random men begging for help!
"Just do what you want then. It\'s your plane."
"Oh okay! Then you guys should make your way to the nearby hospital and get treated," Jingwei said. "I don\'t think you\'ll last the plane ride. Are you guys lacking money? I can give you some."
