Cedrick was not on the capture list. However, even though he had personal freedom, he was in a more awkward situation than Ye Shuang's group. By then, the effect of Han Chu being kidnapped was showing. Cedrick watched as Father Han cuffed Ye Shuang's group with surprise but did not intervene. At the same time, he made an unfriendly front and asked with a brow raised, ”You guys are not going to arrest me as well, are you?”
Father Han indeed hesitated. Arresting Cedrick was different from arresting Ye Shuang's group—the later could be considered ally. Even if they were detained in this manner, they would not turn into enemies. As for Cedrick, the government, which Father Han represented, had no close relationship with him.
To be frank, Cedrick could only be considered a temporary ally because they had the same goal. Their relationship was so weak that it had to be taken care of, and a careless mistake might cause serious repercussions. Without Han Chu's team acting as the buffer, a small mistake might cause the other party to be alert, much less going forward together as allies.
Ye Shuang did not wish to make her senior lose face, so she did not struggle too hard when she was captured. However, it was impossible to expect her to stay back obediently, so she made use of this chance to say, ”Uncle Han, please consider this further!”
Consider what? Ye Shuang did not need to state those problems; Father Han himself would be able to figure out the various problems. Balance, influence, and whether this group who was captured would listen to his orders… he swiftly calmed down. Father Han confirmed his decision. ”There's no need for words. If something really happens to you, how will I answer to Xiao Chu and your parents? Furthermore, don't look down on people from the government. We're not there just for show.”
”I have no parents!” Anthony was the first to argue.
Father Han did not hold back and smack the boy on the back on his head. ”I have to answer to my wife!”
Indeed, the Han family was half of Anthony's family, so naturally, Father and Mother Han could be considered Anthony's parents. Due to his ability to act cute and his appearance, Anthony who had no shame was more valued at the family compared to Han Chu at times. The golden retriever wiggled several times on his chair before finally piping down.
…
After Cedrick was escorted out by Father Han, Su Zheng immediately sat up from the bed while she was captured. With difficulty, she pushed her legs to the ground to find her balance. Finally, she jumped little by little to the sofa where Ye Shuang was…
”Oh, that's really… weak body strong will.” Anthony figured out a way to comment on Su Zheng's action.
”Not bad.” Su Zheng returned the compliment and looked at Ye Shuang with stars in her eyes. ”Brother Shuang, Brother Shuang, you've already figured out how we can escape, right? I saw the signal from you earlier, so I was very clever and didn't say anything before Uncle Han.”
Ye Shuang looked at Su Zheng speechlessly and then turned to glance at the small unit of five who stood at the door ready with their electric batons who were tasked with guarding over the trio. The unit was rather speechless. What should they say in this kind of situation?
Even if you wished to do something bad, at least make it confidential. Look how awkward it is now.
