<h4>Chapter 562: 558</h4>


    "Cang Hu, what’s going on? I’ve already brought Bai Zhiqing out as per your agreement, and you’ve sessfully kidnapped her. When will I get my money?"


    Right after Cang Hu hung up the phone, a fawning voice came from the side. Bai Shan looked at Cang Hu expectantly, his face filled with hopeful eyes, showing no guilt for having orchestrated the kidnapping of his own daughter.


    "Mr. Bai, rest assured on that matter. Since our boss has promised you, not a cent less will be given to you. Once we catch Lu Tianxing, you will have your money. All you need to do now is to quietly sit on the side and wait. Remember, don’t mess up our ns, or you know what the consequences will be."


    Cang Hu looked at Bai Shan with a hint of disdain. This guy was aplete scumbag; he’d do anything for money. When he approached Bai Shan, offering him fifty million just to lure Bai Zhiqing out, the man did not even think before epting. He was the scum of the earth. If this guy weren’t useful to him, he wouldn’t bother dealing with him at all.


    "Heh heh, that’s good, that’s good."


    Hearing Cang Hu’s words, Bai Shan’s face broke into a radiant smile. Without ncing at the unconscious Bai Zhiqing not far away, he walked over to a corner of the warehouse and sat down, his face full of anticipation thinking about bing rich again.


    "Trash."


    Cang Hu spat quietly to himself, then addressed the burly men around him: "Everyone, stay sharp. Remember, this time our target is very strong. I need you at the top of your game, understood?"


    "Boss Cang, aren’t you being overly cautious? It’s just a pretty boy who lives off women; what can he do? Do we really need all the brothers to handle him? I could probably take him down with one hand," a man with a scar on his face said with augh. "But, speaking of which, you mentioned Bai Shan, this guy looks so ugly, but he managed to have such a beautiful daughter? You’re kidding! Hey, Bai Shan, isn’t Bai Zhiqing actually the child of your wife and some other guy? She doesn’t look anything like you."


    "Hahaha."


    As soon as the scar-faced man finished speaking, a burst ofughter erupted from the group, their mocking gazes all directed at Bai Shan.


    Upon hearing this, Bai Shan’s face showed no anger; instead, he smirked and said, "Who knows which man that slut slept with, what do I care, as long as there’s money."


    "Haha, Bai Shan, you really are heartless and ungrateful."


    The scar-faced man burst outughing, stood up, and walked toward Bai Zhiqing, saying as he went, "But then again, this guy, Lu Tianxing, is really lucky, managing to marry such a beauty. He’s hit the jackpot. Cang Hu, since the girl is going to die anyway, why not let the brothers have a little fun first?"


    "No way, this time we just need to catch Lu Tianxing to enjoy endless wealth and honor. There’s no need to risk our lives over a woman. Don’t say I didn’t warn you, don’t underestimate him, or if you lose your life, don’t me me," Cang Hu said sternly.


    "Got it, got it, Cang Hu, you’re bing more of a coward," the scar-faced man said dismissively, waving his hand.


    Just then, Bai Zhiqing also slowly regained consciousness. "Where am I?"


    Bai Zhiqing felt an unbearable headache and tried to rub her temples, only to realize her hands and feet were tied up.


    What on earth had happened?


    Bai Zhiqing was stunned. She had just finished handling the documents for Bai’s Group and was about to head home when she received a call from her father, Bai Shan. Bai Shan told her that if she gave him another fifty million, he would never bother her again. Initially, she did not want to agree, but Bai Shan repeatedly threatened her. If she refused, he would go to the press and expose her, calling her ungrateful and then harassing her every day to rob her of her peace.


    With no other choice, she followed Bai Shan’s instructions and drove to a café to wait for him. However, just after she sipped the coffee served by the waiter, she felt the world spinning and then knew nothing more.


    Not good!


    She was kidnapped!


    A terrible thought entered Bai Zhiqing’s mind, causing herplexion to change.


    "Cang Hu, she’s awake."


    The man with the scarred face saw Bai Zhiqing open her eyes and immediately walked briskly towards her.


    "Wei Nan, don’t mess around, remember why we captured Bai Zhiqing. If you ruin this, don’t me me for being rude."


    Cang Hu saw Scar-faced Wei Nan approaching Bai Zhiqing and hurriedly followed him.


    He had never truly fought Lu Tianxing, but he had a feeling that Lu Tianxing’s strength was only stronger, not weaker. Besides, the recent incidents in Modu, although suppressed, were somehow linked to Lu Tianxing. At this moment, they could not afford the slightest oversight, or they might all end up dead here today.


    Scar-faced Wei Nan chuckled, "Cang Hu, you’re too suspicious. He’s just a pretty boy living off a woman. What can he do to me? Besides, Mr. Duan gave us something good. If he dares toe in, I guarantee he won’t leave alive."


    "Wei Nan, don’t be careless, or you’ll be the one who dies," sighed Cang Hu.


    "Cang Hu? It’s you, you kidnapped me," Bai Zhiqing fully regained her senses and sternly said as she looked at Cang Hu in front of her.


    Hearing Bai Zhiqing’s words, Cang Hu indifferently said, "Miss Bai, don’t me me. If you’re to me anyone, me Lu Tianxing for offending someone he shouldn’t have. We just need to inconvenience you for a while. Once we capture Lu Tianxing, we will naturally release you, but of course, you must cooperate with us."


    "You... "


    Bai Zhiqing’s pupils contracted sharply, shockingly looking at Cang Hu. She had never imagined that they intended to use her to target Lu Tianxing.


    "Heh, don’t be scared, prettydy. We’re only after Lu Tianxing’s life. We promise not to hurt you. Besides, we could kidnap you all thanks to your father’s help. Honestly, you should thank your father. If he hadn’t asked you out, we wouldn’t have had the chance to kidnap you," Scar-faced Wei Nan said, pointing at Bai Shan in the corner and speaking mockingly.


    "Bai Shan, it’s you."


    Bai Zhiqing followed Wei Nan’s gaze and saw Bai Shan, her face showing a strong expression of anger. Now she finally understood why she had fainted after just one sip of coffee; it was all arranged by her own biological father.
