At this mont, it was almost 9 PM at night.
The phone in Xiao Feng's pocket started ringing.
He took it out and saw it was a call from Du Qingyue.
"Eek!"
The driver slamd on the brakes, stopping the car by the side of the road, and turned to Xiao Feng, saying eerily, "Is it the police calling?"
Xiao Feng shook his head, "It's my wife."
Saying that, he even showed the screen to the driver.
"That's not right!
Did you change the contact na?"
"Sigh…" Xiao Feng sighed deeply.
What kind of day was this, running into criminals everywhere?
And each one's brain seems worse than the last?
Just a few minutes earlier, while sitting in the back seat, Xiao Feng had suddenly grabbed the steering wheel from the driver and turned it sharply to the right.
The driver scread in fright, but reacted quickly enough to stop the car just before the guardrail.
The purpose of doing this was to test the other person's instinctive reaction in a dangerous situation.
And judging by the results, there was a high probability that the other person was an ordinary person with no special training, which reassured Xiao Feng a lot.
After all, being taken to an unfamiliar place by a stranger carried a high risk, and if it turned out to be a trap set by the Devil's Concentration Camp, it would be a big problem.
After being startled, the driver pulled out a dagger, threatening Xiao Feng that if he didn't behave, he would end up dead with no way to retrieve his body.
Xiao Feng cooperated by putting on a terrified look, which allowed the driver to continue on the road.
"Are you going to let answer it or not?" Xiao Feng said impatiently, "If you're not, I'll just hang up."
"Answer it, put it on speakerphone."
Xiao Feng answered the call and put it on speaker.
"Aren't you coming ho yet?" Du Qingyue's voice ca through the phone's speaker.
"I can't co ho; I've been kidnapped. Get the ransom ready to save ," Xiao Feng said, barely suppressing his urge to laugh, in a panic-stricken tone.
The driver imdiately pulled a dagger from the armrest console, held it to Xiao Feng's neck, and roared, "Who told you to say you've been kidnapped!"
But once words are spoken, they can't be taken back.
After a whirlwind of thinking, the driver said into the phone, "That was a joke, I'm..."
At this point, the driver lowered his voice and asked, "What's your na?"
"Xiao Bajia," Xiao Feng stamred in response.
"Xiao Bajia… father…" The driver furiously exclaid, "How dare you ss with !"
Just then, Du Qingyue's voice rang out again, "Hey, what's going on over there?
Is sothing happening?"
The driver hurriedly chid in, "Ha ha, nothing, nothing, just joking around with a friend, he'll call you back later."
With that, he hung up the call abruptly.
"I think you've got a death wish, daring to joke with at a ti like this," the driver said viciously.
"Joking?" Xiao Feng looked utterly puzzled, "How did I joke with you?"
"Don't play dumb!
Who nas soone Bajia?
You're not afraid of getting beaten up with a na like that?" the driver said through gritted teeth.
Xiao Feng looked helpless and explained, "I didn't want it either, but the na was given by my parents, not .
Our ho is by the yellow dirt high… er, I an next to a dam.
Back in the day, my dad was a big shot there, and as the boss living by the dam, he nad Bajia."
The driver was dumbfounded, thinking it sounded made up.
But looking at the other person's expression…
Could it be that there's really such an oddball who'd na their son "Bajia"?
Suddenly, the driver thought of a TV drama he had seen.
It was about a platoon of soldiers ambushing a group of enemies posing as their own.
After so negotiation, one of the commanding officers suspected sothing was wrong and suddenly spoke in Japanese.
The agents disguised as soldiers imdiately stood at attention and responded with a "hai."
This scenario, while debatable, at least showed that people can't control their instinctive reactions, especially when called by na.
If the na were real, they'd respond imdiately without thinking.
But if it were fake, there'd be a delay in response.
With that thought, the driver suddenly shouted, "Xiao Bajia!"
"Yes…" Xiao Feng imdiately answered, with a drawn-out tone that sounded quite pleasurable.
The driver's face twitched continuously, and after a mont, he asked, "Do your friends usually call you that by your full na?"
Xiao Feng wanted to nod and say yes, but thinking about it, admitting it might seem disrespectful, so he shook his head, "My friends usually call Old Xiao."
The driver nodded understandingly, thinking that made more sense.
After all, who would want to be called "father" all day by their friends?
After so consideration, the driver called the number back.
When the call connected, he said, "Are you his sister-in-law?
Old Xiao was joking just now; nothing's wrong. We're drinking together, Old Xiao is right here with , let let him talk to you."
With that, the dagger pressed more forcefully against Xiao Feng's neck, a clear warning that if he spoke out of line, the dagger would cut his carotid artery.
Xiao Feng's body shivered; he shouted, "I haven't been kidnapped, no need to prepare ransom to get !"
The driver nearly lost it, covering the phone, he whispered fiercely, "Who told you to say that?"
"You didn't tell what to say," Xiao Feng responded innocently, "I said I was kidnapped earlier, you didn't like it, and now when I say I haven't been, you're still not satisfied.
What do you want to do?"
"Can't you just not ntion kidnapping at all?!" The driver was on the verge of collapse.
"Okay, okay, I won't ntion it." Xiao Feng said, clearing his throat, motioning for the driver to remove his hand: "I'm just out drinking, I'll be back later, don't worry!"
...
anwhile, at the Jinyue Garden Villa District.
"Sister Qingyue, I think I heard sothing about a kidnapping, what's happening?" the little girl asked.
"Who did the boss kidnap this ti?" Hui Shiba also said.
Lao Ha imdiately retorted, "Can you watch your mouth? Do you think the boss is that kind of person?"
"The boss isn't around now, even if you keep flattering him, he can't hear it," Aspergillus oryzae scoffed.
"So what if he's not around? I'd say it whether he's here or not!" Old Ha raised his voice and said, "The boss would never do sothing like this!
Even if he did, there'd be a good reason."
Aspergillus oryzae sneered, "Isn't it obvious? Kidnapping always has a reason."
"Stop fighting," Du Qingyue said softly, "Xiao Feng said, it was he who was…kidnapped."
The entire room went silent.
Xiao Feng, kidnapped?
Is that even possible!
No one worried about Xiao Feng's safety for a mont but instead silently prayed for the person who kidnapped him.
Because kidnapping Xiao Feng... it's more than stepping on a mine, it was stepping on an atomic bomb!
At that mont, Lu Yao walked in from outside, carrying a laptop, and said, "Brother Yanzhang has already left the urban area and can't see the screen for now, but he can hear the sounds over there through the phone."
