Chapter 679 - Preparing the Ransom
The Wen Family members had sunk into a somber mood.
Old Mr. Wen seemed to have lost his rigor and energy after receiving the call.
The sounds of Wen Xinya being abused and beaten up repeatedly ran through Old Mr. Mo’s mind and he felt extremely agonized.
At this moment, Xiao Huang walked towards them and said, “Old Mr. Wen, Old Mr. Mo, Major has already brought his men to the bomb shelter where the abductors were hiding in. However, there was no one there. Hence, we deduced that the abductors have moved to another hiding spot while taking the hostage with them. Our first attempt at rescuing has failed, and we’ve yet to obtain the abductors’ current location.”
Xiao Huang’s words were like a bolt out of the blue that made both Old Mr. Wen and Old Mr. Mo shudder. Their lips trembled and they were at a complete loss for words.
Old Mr. Mo asked in a shaky voice, “What… what about Xinya’s safety?”
Shaking his head, Xiao Huang answered, “We can’t confirm that yet.”
Old Mr. Wen staggered and asked, “You mean, we don’t know if Xinya is dead or alive now?”
The shrilling ringtone sounded, making them panic.
Old Mr. Wen immediately grabbed the mobile phone, only to realize that it was not his mobile phone that was ringing.
Xiao Huang grabbed Old Mr. Mo’s mobile phone and said, “Old Mr. Mo, it’s your mobile phone.”
Old Mr. Mo unlocked his mobile phone to see that it was a notification from the bank which informed him that a sum of 600 million yuan was transferred to his account. He knew instantly that it was from Si Yiyan.
