Chapter One Hundred and Ninety-Five: Planned and Unplanned (1/2)
“…How frightening.” Nan Wei finally spoke after having his entire worldview changed.
Xiao Yu scurried over to Nan Wei. Under Nan Wei’s surprised gaze, Xiao Yu lay back and retracted his four paws, revealing a round snow-white belly.
“*Squeak*.”
In that instant, Nan Wei was blasted by cuteness. He decisively reached out and rubbed Xiao Yu’s belly.
“*Squeak*.”
Xiao Yu hugged Nan Wei’s finger in sync.
The human and hamster played together to their hearts’ content. With nothing else to do, the other two background characters began to chat.
“So, seeing that Xiao Yu is unscathed, whom are you putting this act on for?” Chu Ge asked.
“Haven’t you already guessed?”
“…For Nan Chan.”
“Correct.” Yan Jin sighed deeply.
Chu Ge also sighed.
“So you called us over to discuss our response?”
Yan Jin didn’t respond. He neither nodded nor shook his head.
“Let Nan Wei go back. I can handle this alone,” Chu Ge said.
“You spent so much effort and luck into hiding yourself for all these years. You’re giving up all of it just like that?” Yan Jin asked.
Once Chu Ge showed himself, his identity was bound to be uncovered. At the very least, the Nan Family would find out. Because Yan Jin had considered this point, he had called Nan Wei over as well.
“If possible, I would hope to stay hidden a little longer…” Chu Ge looked at Nan Wei, who was happily playing with Xiao Yu not too far away. Chu Ge gave a bitter smile. “But, it’s very clear I no longer have a choice.”
“Nan Wei is already twenty-four now,” Yan Jin reminded him.
“…That’s still a child.” Chu Ge hesitated, then shook his head. “He doesn’t need to get involved in these things.”
“You’re such a caring older brother.” Yan Jin shrugged and walked over to Xiao Yu and Nan Wei.
Xiao Yu was so happy that he didn’t realize he was about to roll off the table. Fortunately, in that moment, Xiao Yu was fished up from his off-balance position and received a flick to his forehead.
“*Squeak*…” Xiao Yu didn’t dare make too much noise in protest because he knew he had messed up. He could only let out two soft squeaks like a spoiled child.
“Any more trouble from you and I’ll shut you in your cage,” Yan Jin threatened.
“Ahh Cousin, cousin, don’t blame Master. I didn’t take proper care.” Nan Wei had already completely accepted Xiao Yu’s special condition. He had no resistance against Xiao Yu’s devastating cuteness and had quickly been won over.
Yan Jin looked ahead, then looked inside his palm. In the end, all he could helplessly say was, “I’ll let you off just this once.”
Xiao Yu was set back onto the table and swaggered over to Nan Wei. As he did so, he looked back provokingly to Yan Jin before leaping into Nan Wei’s embrace.
Yan Jin: “…”
His face warped in envy. Chairman Yan sat down on the sofa and sternly said, “Let’s talk about the abduction.”
“Mm.” Nan Wei hurriedly put Xiao Yu down and solemnly sat down.
Chu Ge also came over and sat down.
“Firstly, this is the surveillance recording.” Yan Jin turned the computer screen to face the other two. “The police are already in position. When the criminals reach the checkpoint in front of the gas station in ten minutes, they’ll be stopped by the police.
“Wait, you called the police?” Chu Ge asked.
“Why are you surprised?”
“Well, it doesn’t seem appropriate…” Chu Ge looked at Xiao Yu. “There might be some negative effects from publicizing the kidnapping, and our friend here is already safe anyways…”
“That’s a separate issue. I called the police about my stolen car.” Yan Jin knocked on the table. “That custom car is worth twenty million yuan. That’s enough to put someone in jail for ten years.”
Chu Ge exclaimed, “That’s almost equivalent to kidnapping someone. These guys really are ignorant of the law.”
“I’m very pleased that these people who are ignorant of the law saw my riches and became greedy.” Yan Jin didn’t seem to care that they’d stolen twenty million yuan from him.
Xiao Yu made a face at Yan Jin.
Although he himself was very successful with a salary of over ten million, normal people couldn’t be compared with Yan Jin. Every time Xiao Yu felt this difference, his dislike for the rich would subconsciously appear.
In the next second, Yan Jin flicked him in the forehead again.
“*Squeak*…” Xiao Yu complained dispiritedly.
Actually, he’d already guessed that he would receive such a small penalty. However, it happened so frequently he’d grown accustomed to it.
*Sigh*, it really was so annoying having a mind-reading lover. Only someone as magnanimous as himself could endure such a person, hmph!
Thinking of this, Xiao Yu became pleased with himself again.
Suddenly, Yan Jin rubbed Xiao Yu all over without giving Xiao Yu any time to react. The fur that Nan Wei had straightened with such difficulty became messy once more.
Xiao Yu fumed. He scurried over to Nan Wei and away from Yan Jin.
For a while, Nan Wei felt a little cold.
“They still haven’t realized that Fishy’s escaped?” Chu Ge asked after looking at the monitor for a while.
“*Squeak*.” Xiao Yu arrogantly puffed out his chest.
Yan Jin nodded. “It’s not their fault. Normal people wouldn’t be able to imagine such an event.”
Nan Wei nodded as well.
“So have you found out who’s behind this?” Chu Ge asked.
“Listen to their conversation. It’s probably not the Nan Family. They talked to a woman. If it really were the Nan Family, they wouldn’t have relied on such low-level abductors.” Yan Jin put on an act. “Thus, you guys won’t be of much help. The remaining work can be handled by the police.”
“Would they really reveal the mastermind’s identity? And, Fishy here has already escaped. They could very well claim innocence.”
“The grand theft is already a fact, regardless of whatever they claim. Ten years of jail time can’t be avoided.” Yan Jin linked his hands on his knees and sat up straight. “This way, we’ll have the initiative.”
