Chen Fan cleared his throat, “Interesting. Really interesting. Alright, you can leave now.”
The assistants quickly ran out.
Darn, that was terrifying. Was this for a film or something?
Chen Fan helplessly looked at the bound Liu Feifei, a hint of frustration crossing his face as he removed the sock from her mouth.
It’s not necessary to go this far, seriously.
“Phew, I almost suffocated! What … what are you planning to do?”
“Me? Nothing. You were sent to me as a gift. What do you think I’d do?”
Liu Feifei began to cry, crawling toward him.
Wait a minute. Was there a step missing? This is too much. Jeez.
Chen Fan finally realized there was indeed a mistake. Kidnappings usually involved the villain getting close to the female lead.
But this scene was off. Girl, you’re not doing it right.
Then, with teary eyes, she moved backward, screaming, “No, please …”
You’re overdoing it! Why are you crawling toward me?
Seeing Chen Fan frozen in place, Liu Feifei felt she may have overacted. Damn it, she shouldn’t have gone this far.
Then, she quickly moved backward again.
Right, that’s better.
Chen Fan couldn’t hold it in anymore and burst into laughter.
Cao Zijin, who was watching secretly, laughed until she cried, and Zhu Yeqing, standing by, also chuckled. This girl was pure gold. Just too entertaining.
Lin Qingyue, on the other hand, was fuming as she watched on her phone. Damn it, this girl … she’s in a league of her own. Her status as the first female lead was in danger.
This girl was truly impressive, an angel inside and out. You couldn’t possibly be mad at her.
But Chen Fan quickly regained his composure, instructing Zhu Yeqing to help Liu Feifei to her feet and sit her beside him.
Crossing his legs, Chen Fan looked her up and down and said, “I didn’t expect you to be such a hidden gem. You’ve got a lot going on, huh?”
“Right? Right? I told you I had a great figure, but people kept saying I wasn’t suited for the sexy route. It really bothers me.”
Chen Fan coughed, “Let’s get this straight—you’re kidnapped.”
Liu Feifei immediately corrected herself, “Oh, right, I forgot. Sorry. So, Mr. Kidnapper, what do you want?”
“I kidnapped you, so I want money. I’m thinking of asking for five million in ransom.”
Liu Feifei headbutted him on the face.
Chen Fan was dazed. You’ve got issues, right? You’re kidnapped. I’m the kidnapper! What are you doing? Can you be serious? We’re following the plot here.
“Why only five million? My appearance fees alone are worth more than that. Your scope is too small.”
“I’ll demand five hundred million then. Do you have that?”
“Of course. Being a celebrity pays well. But no, that’s too low.”
Liu Feifei paused, “Then just sell me off. I don’t think I can scrape together five billion, even with my parents. Mr. Kidnapper, Brother Chen Fan, you can’t set the price that high.”
Chen Fan laughed openly, “I’m messing with you. But Xiao Feng sent you as a gift, so I’m curious if he’d let Ye Aotian know.”
“Uh, why would he tell Ye Aotian?”
Cao Zijin was in utter shock. Holy crap, Liu Feifei was lying! This was incredible. Wow, this was beyond belief.
Chen Fan continued, “I think he wouldn’t be clueless. He knows Ye Aotian and I are enemies. Don’t worry, Ye Aotian will come to save you.”
Zhu Yeqing froze, realizing her mistake. She had assumed she’d been the one who’d exposed the location, but it was Xiao Feng who’d leaked it. However, it made no difference; Ye Aotian would come to save her, as Liu Feifei had indeed been kidnapped.
Chen Fan instructed, “Butler, get a few skilled fighters ready. I’m sure Ye Aotian will arrive tonight.”
The butler nodded, sending people out to make arrangements.
Chen Fan stretched, getting up.
“What are you doing, Brother Chen Fan?”
“Just going out for some air. Can’t I?”
“But … you’re a kidnapper. Aren’t you going to do something?”
Who does she think I am? I’m the kidnapper, not some creep. I’m here for Ye Aotian, not her.
But, since she brought it up, Chen Fan felt obligated to do something.
He approached Liu Feifei and lightly touched her hand.
Liu Feifei stared at him for a long time, “That’s it?”
She … she insulted me! She actually insulted me. Damn it, this is ridiculous. I should sue her for emotional damages.
Grabbing her ear, Chen Fan said, “You’re just a kid; I’m not interested in banter. I’m targeting Ye Aotian, not you.”
“Ouch! And I’m not a kid. I’ve grown up, hmph.”
She proudly stood up, raising her chin and sticking out her chest.
You’re taking this too far.
