Chapter 781 - The Net Worth of Lin Nuan’s Husband, Fu Huai’an
The situation at Jinjiang TV Station remained hectic until Fang Yan stepped out to clarify things. She said that Lin Nuan had an emergency to deal with at home, and since Fu Tianci was her family member, he was also taken away. She apologized for their sudden inability to continue recording the show and said that Lin Nuan and Fu Tianci would treat everyone to tea after they confirmed the rescheduled date and time.
Less than half an hour after Fang Yan explained things to the crew, news of Fu Huai’an holding 53.4% of the Kaide Corporation’s shares was announced. There was also the fact that he had formally joined the director’s board of the Kaide Corporation and had become the largest shareholder.
With something major happening at home, it seemed reasonable that Lin Nuan was suddenly escorted away by bodyguards. With the revelation of that news, the gossip and speculation at Jinjiang TV Station seemed to have toned down. Everyone was more enthusiastically discussing the net worth of Lin Nuan’s husband, Fu Huai’an!
…
Almost at the entrance of the expressway.
Little Lu had stopped Ah Zhan’s fleet with his men.
The people in the first and fourth cars in Ah Zhan’s fleet had been subdued… and pinned against the vehicles.
A young lady came out from the front passenger seat of the minivan originally carrying Lin Nuan, though it wasn’t Lin Nuan.
The driver of the minivan had a gun pointed at his head and was asked to get out of the car.
Ah Zhan sat inside the car, holding Fu Tianci’s shoulders, his expression as dark as it could get.
The suited Little Lu smiled and got out of the car leisurely, then buttoned his suit jacket and walked towards Ah Zhan.
Seeing Little Lu get closer and closer, Fu Tianci, who was gagged and had his hands tied behind his back, couldn’t hide his excitement.
“Stay in place!” Ah Zhan warned Fu Tianci as he unzipped his jacket.
Seeing the explosives tied around Ah Zhan’s body, Fu Tianci felt his hair stand all over his body.
Little Lu smiled and walked to Ah Zhan’s vehicle, the corners of his lips turning up as he knocked on the door and casually pulled it open…
Ah Zhan was sitting inside the car with a dark face, not at all bothering to conceal the explosives on him. It was as if he was deliberately showing them to Little Lu to intimidate him.
But Little Lu didn’t appear fearful at all. He propped one hand against the roof of the vehicle and bent over to smile at Ah Zhan. “Mr. Ah Zhan, we meet again…”
Ah Zhan clenched his teeth and didn’t utter a sound. His vision swept over the minivan originally carrying Lin Nuan and saw that, right now, a young lady was standing there with both hands in her pockets and chewing gum.
He asked, “Has Lin Nuan been taken away by your men?”
“Rather than showing concern for my lady boss, I think Mr. Ah Zhan should be more concerned about your own boss! After all… you’ve brought nearly half of his men with you. If your boss were to meet any danger, he’d be in a perilous state!” Little Lu glanced at the phone next to Ah Zhan and smiled so widely that his eyes were narrowed into slits. “Managed to get through?”
“What do you want?” Ah Zhan asked.
“Mr. Ah Zhan, you’re asking a strange question!” Little Lu’s smile was superficial. He inconsistently rapped his fingers against the roof of the car. “Instead of staying in America, where you could be fine and live well, you came to Haicheng! Never mind that you chose to come to Haicheng, but you were discontent with your lot and kept making trouble. On account of the fact that you previously rescued my lady boss, my boss wasn’t calculative with you. Who knew you would take his kindness for granted and come to Jinjiang to kidnap my lady boss in broad daylight! Mr. Ah Zhan… I want to ask you instead, what do you and your boss want?”
Ah Zhan clenched his teeth. He had reckoned that Li Muyang had made a mistake in coming to Haicheng from the start, so he could not come up with any words to rebut Little Lu.
“What have you done to my boss?” Ah Zhan looked up and asked Little Lu.
“Since Mr. Ah Zhan is interested, why don’t we go and take a look together?” Little Lu said.
Ah Zhan forcefully gripped Fu Tianci’s shoulders and pulled him closer. He yanked open his jacket in an attempt to intimidate Little Lu. “Let me talk to my boss…”
Little Lu chuckled. “Mr. Ah Zhan, I’m not like my lady boss, who would allow herself to be threatened by you to protect her show’s guests!”
Ah Zhan narrowed his eyes.
Little Lu pointed at Fu Tianci with his jaw. “This… is but an illegitimate son of my boss’s maternal grandfather. He’s the strongest contender in the fight for my boss’s family assets. It’s simply because my boss was unwilling to get blood on his hands that he has managed to live safe and sound until now! If I were asked for my opinion… I would say that we should finish him off for good! But my boss doesn’t deign to do something like that! If you’re willing to help my boss settle this big trouble, I can explain it to my boss too! Mr. Ah Zhan, consider whether you’re getting out of the car with me, or whether you’d like to undertake the trouble of helping me take care of this problem…”
Fu Tianci’s pupils trembled.
Even though Fu Tianci could guess that Little Lu was saying this intentionally, he couldn’t conceal his panic upon hearing those words.
Perhaps Fu Tianci had felt from the bottom of his heart that he was indeed nothing but trouble to Fu Huai’an. If he didn’t exist, Fu Qingquan wouldn’t go to such great lengths to seek trouble with Fu Huai’an, and Fu Huai’an would be able to inherit the Kaide Corporation smoothly!
Then, when Lin Nuan pointed a gun at herself and followed the guy called Ah Zhan, was it truly because he was a guest on Lin Nuan’s show?
Fu Tianci felt his feelings hit rock bottom.
Ah Zhan clenched his teeth as he stared at Little Lu with a look like he yearned to tear him into shreds…
Still, Little Lu maintained that smiley expression while waiting for Ah Zhan to make his decision.
Little Lu knew that Ah Zhan was worried about Li Muyang and would certainly choose to release Fu Tianci and leave with him!
Now, Little Lu was the butcher’s knife and chopping board… while Ah Zhan was the fish filet lying on the board!
After a long while, Ah Zhan pushed Fu Tianci away and got out of the car.
Fu Tianci, who was knocked against the seats, turned pale in the face. Despite luckily managing to escape the calamity unscathed, and despite feeling glad about that, Fu Tianci’s feelings were at an unprecedented low…
“Mr. Ah Zhan, why don’t you take off the things strapped to your body and let me keep them for you!” Little Lu remained smiley.
Ah Zhan gazed at Little Lu coldly. “This is the last bargaining chip I have against you!”
Little Lu couldn’t resist chuckling again. “Mr. Ah Zhan, if you don’t remove that thing on you, I’m not going to let you get in the car. Or… shall I give you the location and let you head over yourself?”
“You…” Ah Zhan gazed at Little Lu’s nonchalant face, suddenly feeling helpless.
Yes, that was muddleheaded of Ah Zhan. How could Little Lu possibly allow him to carry explosives into the car?
With Li Muyang being held hostage by their men, Ah Zhan had already lost all bargaining chips!
His feelings were like Lin Nuan’s in the dressing room back then. Whoever was more afraid… was destined to be the loser.
Ah Zhan relented and allowed Little Lu’s men to remove the explosives from his body.
He had originally only planned to use them to threaten Lin Nuan anyway, so the explosives were easily removed from Ah Zhan’s body.
Little Lu shot his men a look, and someone quickly got into the car and untied Fu Tianci, removing the cloth that had been used to gag his mouth as well.
Seeing Fu Tianci get out of the car, Little Lu said to him with a smile, “Young Master Fu, someone will be sending you back. You can record Lady Boss’s show after you take a rest and calm down!”
