Chapter 733: Two Lives Made Her Very Confused
Zhang Ran sat up from the bed and clenched her cell phone tightly: "Do you think one million is one hundred yuan? We agreed on two days, and only one day has passed." She couldn't let Yang Jun think that she had easily collected one million, otherwise it would arouse his suspicion and vigilance.
"Stop talking nonsense! How much have you prepared?"
"Nine hundred and thirty thousand, still a little short." Zhang Ran heard Gao Yunfeng's voice coming from the phone.
"Nine hundred and thirty thousand is enough. The longer the night, the more trouble there is. Let her come and redeem him quickly. What if she changes her mind and calls the police after a long time?"
Yang Jun's vicious question came from the phone immediately: "Have you called the police?"
"No." Zhang Ran changed the subject, "But I withdrew so much money from the bank at once, and the bank teller asked me several times."
"Fuck! Nine hundred and thirty thousand is nine hundred and thirty thousand! Drive out right now!"
"I drive? This is the first day you met me?" Zhang Ran had never revealed the fact that he could drive in front of Yang Jun. He always rode in the car driven by Yang Tao and the others.
Yang Jun on the other end of the phone just remembered this matter and discussed with others what to do.
They didn't dare let Zhang Ran take a car out of the city, as carrying a large amount of cash would easily arouse police suspicion. In the end, they took a step back and asked her to find a driver to take her out of the city for the transaction, but the driver had to be a woman.
"If you dare to ask Cheng Mingtai to send you off, I will chop off Xiaoying's hand!" Yang Jun threatened fiercely on the phone. He naturally knew that Cheng Mingtai had come to Beijing to open a branch after Yang Tao was arrested.
"Okay." Zhang Ran hung up the phone, got out of bed, changed into a light sportswear, put on sneakers, and was stunned the moment he opened the door.
Qiuyu and the others were all standing outside the door.
"I'm going to pay the ransom. Qiuyu, come with me." Zhang Ran walked through the crowd and went straight to the suitcase in the corner.
Luo Youge's face was in pain. He wanted to tell Zhang Ran not to go, but he couldn't say it. If Zhang Ran went, it would be dangerous and he might never come back. If he didn't go, Xiaoying and Yang Tao would not come back. She was extremely conflicted about the lives of two people.
Qiu Yu immediately perked up when she heard this and looked at everyone: "I will protect her."
Cheng Mingtai said nothing and just stood there quietly like a piece of wood.
"Qiuyu, stay. I'll go with you." Xia Wei suddenly spoke up to stop them.
Zhang Ran picked up the box and glanced at Xia Wei. "Thank you. You guys should wait for my news at home."
The moon was hanging high in the sky. Several people stood in the yard. They watched Zhang Ran get into the car and then Qiu Yu drove away.
After the car disappeared, Xia Wei turned to look at Cheng Mingtai, who was worried. "The amount of money involved in this kidnapping case is too large. The police have already sent people to protect her secretly. She will not be in danger."
Cheng Mingtai: "...she will be angry if she finds out." He had discovered a long time ago that Zhang Ran always solved problems on his own and never went to the police. He would only call the police after something happened.
Xia Wei crossed her arms and said, "Two consecutive kidnapping cases were committed across provinces. It's not something she can do as she pleases. What's more, Luo Youdi has already called the police, and the police are paying close attention. It's useless even if I want the police not to intervene." Not to mention that the things Zhang Ran asked her for were also obtained from the police after she applied to her superior.
It was late at night and there was only Qiuyu driving a car on the road. If someone was following him secretly, he would be easily discovered.
"Someone is following us." Qiu Yu glanced through the rearview mirror and informed Zhang Ran who was sitting in the back, "It should be the police."
