Chapter 640: Who Is the Person on the Rooftop?
If things go smoothly, each person can get three million.Moreover... the boss said for sure, the Xu Family won’t report to the police and won’t pursue it.
Su Li glanced at Li An and the two lawyers beside her with the corner of her eye. The group managed to stay calm, but their faces turned somewhat pale.
Su Li’s soft yet clear voice rang out, "You’re asking Shen Shuang for money, it should have nothing to do with us, right? I want to go home."
Everyone in the coffee shop was stunned, What?
I want to go home?
Do you realize the situation right now? Speaking nonsense just like that?
...
Today, the sun is just right, winter sunlight is warm, making people feel cozy.
Xu Fuhai walked next to Feng Huaijin, expressing heartfelt gratitude, "Thank you for the introduction, Mr. Feng. Thank you for the introduction. Our Xu Family is indebted to your support, we won’t forget your great kindness."
Xu Fuhai prides himself as a man of integrity, disdaining owing anyone anything.
These days, as he rested on his bed, closing his eyes, the vision of Shen Shuang’s younger daughter aggressively insisting on keeping the fifty-six million post-tax bonus would unwittingly float into his mind.
He even wrote an IOU!
Even if it was an IOU for his wife, they are united as one!
With a knot in his heart, Xu Fuhai arranged to meet with Mr. Feng.
The last time he sought funds from Ao Shi Group, he was rejected, but with Feng Huaijin’s connections, assisting him in securing forty million from another party in advance by two to three months was still feasible.
Thinking of that unremarkable daughter, Xu Fuhai coldly snorted, he would return the forty million to her just within these days!
Xu Fuhai continued, "Mr. Feng, how about I host you for dinner tonight?"
Feng Huaijin seemed a bit lethargic; dining with a middle-aged man wasn’t his idea of fun.
Before Feng Huaijin could respond, Xu Fuhai’s beautiful secretary ran over briskly, fearfully saying, "Mr. Xu, news has arrived that Shen Shuang’s second daughter was taken hostage in a coffee shop!"
Xu Fuhai’s face changed, astonished, "What?"
Feng Huaijin felt a sinking feeling; he remembered Su Li messaging him earlier that morning, saying she’d take his lawyers to meet Shen Shuang for a private settlement in the afternoon.
Could it be... such a coincidence?
Xu Fuhai felt a bit dizzy from shock, gritting his teeth, he added, "Mr. Feng, my daughter might be in trouble, I’ll take you out for dinner next time. Let’s go now! Hurry up!"
Turning, he shouted at the secretary.
The car was brought around, and Xu Fuhai immediately got in.
Suddenly, the opposite car door was pulled open, and a tall figure climbed in, shutting the door with a loud "Bang."
Xu Fuhai was shocked to see Feng Huaijin, "Mr. Feng, you..."
Why did he get in?
Feng Huaijin’s expression was somewhat grave, he said in a deep voice, "Let’s go together, drive quickly!"
The driver snapped to, and drove straight to the coffee shop.
The coffee shop was nestled in the corner of the street, its brown decor exuding an European vibe, with neat rows of fresh green plants placed at the entrance.
Looking through the glass window, surprisingly it seemed there’s no one inside.
Feng Huaijin’s heart sank a bit, the patrons must certainly be controlled in some unseen corner.
A young man stood dozens of meters away, relieved yet extremely grateful, exclaiming, "I was just about to go inside to drink coffee and read when I took a step in and realized there was a hostage situation, so I immediately ran out and didn’t get caught. Besides, I’ve already called the police."
Feng Huaijin turned his head, staring icily at the young man asking, "Who’s been held hostage on the rooftop?"
