My Little Sweet Wife Chapter 230 - Kidnapping I

Chapter 230 - Kidnapping I

It was dark. There was not a single crack of light in the darkness. It's been hours of endless darkness.

Jiang Ruolan's eyes were wide open, but all she could see was pitch-black. From the intense struggle when she had just woken up a few hours ago to the moment she lost all her strength, all she could do was lie there motionless.

Jiang Ruolan could feel that she was lying on a rather wide bench, her hands behind her back, tied tightly with ropes. Her legs, too, were tied to the end of the bench, and no matter how hard she struggled, she couldn't move at all. There was something sealed on her lips. Just like that, she was locked up in this dark place.

Jiang Ruolan did not know where she was now, and after being here for several hours, the anxiety and the fear she had experienced seven years ago a.s.saulted her together.

However, she did her best to control her emotions as she thought carefully about the people who appeared near her recently and the people who might have kidnapped her.

And no matter how much she thought, she still couldn't figure out who was the culprit.

Was it Wei Donghai?

Jiang Bingqing?

Who was it? And for what?

Xian Zihao was still in the hospital with bullet wounds and while she was abducted. Were all these closely intertwined? Even if someone wanted to kidnap her and blackmail her, it wouldn't be right now!

Suddenly, she heard the sound of messy footsteps coming closer and closer.

Jiang Ruolan immediately closed her eyes.

*Creak.*

The sound of a heavy metal door opening was heard.

"Was the drug too strong? Why isn't she awake yet?" A voice of a man in his early twenties was heard.

"Who cares, Old Wei just told us to catch and bring her here. We had watched her for days and finally decided to take the opportunity to kidnap her when some people who were secretly protecting her leave her side last night." Another impatient voice, sounding like a thirty-four-year-old man, was heard. The voice contained some dissatisfaction.

"This time, after we get the payment, we'd better go abroad to hide. This is Xian Zihao's wife. If we get caught, we won't be able to live a good life anymore!"

"Don't tell me that you guys had overdose this woman and she's dead?" Another man's voice was heard when the metal door opened again. The man walked in and glanced at Jiang Ruolan.

He held out his hand under her nose to check whether she was still breathing or not.

"It's just some knockout drugs, how can she die?" Another man walked in and looked down at the motionless Jiang Ruolan. He hesitated and then said, "Go call Old Wei and tell him to come here immediately. When will he pay us the remaining money?! This woman has been locked up here for some hours. If she did not die because of overdose, then she would die because of suffocation. Before we hand her to Old Wei, we definitely can't let her die! We can't afford to offend Xian Zihao!"

"I'll get a bottle of water and wake her up."

"There's a bottle of mineral water in the car. Go get it and wake her up."

Jiang Ruolan had no choice but to open her eyes when she heard that they wanted to splash water on her. The two men were startled. They didn't expect her to open her eyes so suddenly. The man in his thirties looked at her coldly, as if he was trying to come up with a plan.

The twenty-something-year-old man beside him said, "Brother Yi, if Old Wei doesn't come soon, we may need to think of another solution."

"Shut up!" The man who had been called Brother Yi pulled up his sleeves, exposing the scary tattoo on his arm. He looked down at Jiang Ruolan's pleading eyes and said, "If she dies in our hands, then we won't have any chance to live anymore. We can't kill her!"

With that, Brother Yi lowered his head and said in a small voice, "She's not a woman from a wealthy family, but Xian Family is not an ordinary family."

"But she already saw our face."

"You stay here. I'll talk to her."

A moment later, a man named Yi Bohai bent down and asked in a testing, cold voice, "You don't want to die, do you?"

Jiang Ruolan frowned. She didn't understand this person's probing att.i.tude, but she nodded.

"The person who paid us to kidnap you hasn't come. I can let you not be bound like this, and I can let you talk, but you should promise not to shout. Also, if anything happens, you should pretend that you never saw our face!"

Yi Bohai looked at Jiang Ruolan's stunned expression. He paused for a moment, then turned around to look at his companion. The young man pursed his lips, showing no disapproval.

If it weren't for the outrageously high price that Wei Donghai had paid, they would not have dared to take over this task. They had long heard that Xian Zihao's head was worth about eighteen million, but after many years, no one could touch him. Even the people around him are not easy to approach.

Originally, they were still considering the mission for a long time, thinking they would have to follow Jiang Ruolan for a few days and try to find an opportunity to kidnap her. Unexpectedly, a golden opportunity fell to their lap.

Right now, they couldn't decide on anything and they could not kill this woman. However, just in case, it was better to talk to her first.

Jiang Ruolan's mouth was sealed with tape and she was unable to speak. She was so nervous that she did not dare to breathe. She thought for a moment, then looked at the young man next to her and the one at the door. Judging from the scars on their faces, it was clear that they had both been slightly injured and possibly even killed many people. If she didn't compromise now, she would only be at a disadvantage, so she nodded.

"Why are you wasting your breath on her? Old Wei is about to arrive. Tie her up!" Suddenly, another man walked in. He wore a scary mask on his face and his eyes were fierce. He waved his hand in front of his nose in disgust. What is this disgusting smell?"

After hearing this, Yi Bohai hesitated for a moment, then nodded, signaling the young companion to come over. The two of them reached out to untie Jiang Ruolan and held her tightly, giving her no chance to fight.

They let her sit on a bench and then tied her up from top to bottom.

The masked man was probably their leader because as soon as he entered, these two men's faces turned anxious.

Although Jiang Ruolan's heart was pounding, she tried her best to be clear-headed. She looked at them and made a 'wuwuwu' sound as she looked Yi Bohai's leaving figure
