Chapter 169: Chapter 169 Troublesome Opponent

Nightfall descended.

Royal International Hotel.

Zhao Min sat in front of the computer, her small hand gliding the mouse.

On the computer screen were displayed the detailed family records of Zhou Zheng.

These records were extremely thorough.

They covered every member of Zhou Zheng’s family, their occupations, current residences, personal preferences, and even Zhou Zheng’s special quirks—all recorded in crystal clear detail.

Zhao Min gently picked up a glass of red wine from beside her and took a small sip, then turned her focus to Zhou Zheng’s son’s file.

After looking at the photo of Zhou Zheng’s son for a while, Zhao Min pulled out her cellphone and dialed a number, speaking in an almost commanding tone, "The target is confirmed, get ready. We will make our move in the next two days—remember, it must be done without anyone noticing!"

After finishing, Zhao Min hung up the phone directly.

Three days passed quickly.

During these days, Chen Feng gave Zhou Zheng acupuncture treatment once a day.

Zhou Zheng’s health gradually improved, just as Chen Feng had said; within these three days, his condition had recovered by half.

This made Zhou Zheng respect Chen Feng even more and he was immensely grateful.

Zhou Zheng was also very much looking forward to the next day.

Because the next day was the day of Lin’s Jewelry’s board meeting.

As soon as the board meeting was over, he would be completely healed.

Just thinking about it, Zhou Zheng felt excited.

"Mr. Chen, may I arrange a car to take you home?" Zhou Zheng asked respectfully as he watched Chen Feng packing up after finishing the acupuncture.

"No need, I’ll just take a taxi back!" Chen Feng shook his head and replied.

"That’s not acceptable, Mr. Chen, you are my great benefactor; how can I just let you take a taxi? I will call the driver to bring the car over and take you home!" Zhou Zheng insisted.

"There’s no need to be so courteous, Vice Chairman Zhou. You just need to help Sister Qing secure the chairman’s position at tomorrow’s board meeting. That is enough. Whatever I promised you, I will certainly make happen!" Chen Feng said with a smile.

"Mr. Chen, rest assured, I, Zhou Zheng, always keep my word. You have given me new hope again; whatever you ask, I will make it happen!" Zhou Zheng assured earnestly.

"Alright, that’s good, I’m taking my leave now!" Chen Feng smiled and nodded, then turned to walk towards the villa’s exit.

Zhou Zheng quickly stood up, ready to see Chen Feng off.

However, at that moment, Zhou Zheng’s cellphone suddenly rang.

Zhou Zheng took out his phone and saw an unknown number.

This made him frown, but he answered the call and asked in confusion, "Hello, who is this?"

"Vice Chairman Zhou, I’ve heard much about you!" A metallic voice, altered through special processing, came from the phone.

"Who are you?" Zhou Zheng frowned.

"Who I am is not important. You just need to know that your son is in my hands now!" said the metallic voice.

"Hah, do you expect me to believe that? What era do you think this is? You still use these old tricks to scam money. What’s next, asking me to transfer money into your account for ransom? Scammer, let me tell you, if you keep deceiving people like this, you’ll only starve to death. Goodbye!"

Zhou Zheng scoffed, clearly perceiving this call as a scam, and was about to hang up.

"Vice Chairman Zhou, don’t be in such a hurry to hang up. In two seconds, you will receive an MMS. You might want to see it before you hang up!" The metallic voice said calmly, not sounding flustered.

As soon as the voice stopped, Zhou Zheng’s phone vibrated.

Zhou Zheng brought the phone screen in front of his eyes, and sure enough, there was an MMS.

He hurriedly opened it to check.

When Zhou Zheng saw the content of the MMS, his expression drastically changed, his body trembled, and he almost dropped his cellphone.

Because the MMS contained several photos of his son, Zhou Hai.

In the photos, his son Zhou Hai was tied to a chair, his mouth sealed with duct tape, and his limbs were securely bound by ropes, rendering him unable to break free.

Moreover, from the content of the photos, they did not appear to be Photoshopped; they had been genuinely taken with a camera.

This made Zhou Zheng’s complexion immediately turn extremely grim. He now knew that this was not a simple scam call, but his son had indeed been kidnapped!

"Tell me, how much money do you want to release my son? State any amount you desire, but make sure not to harm a single hair on my son, or else, I will not let you go!" Zhou Zheng said, his body shaking and teeth gritted.

"Vice President Zhou surely loves his son a lot, but rest assured, we are not after your money!" the metallic voice laughed and said.

"Not after money? What do you want then? As long as you release my son, I will give you anything!" Zhou Zheng asked, his tone somewhat frantic.

He had been an older father; he hadn’t had his first son, Zhou Hai, until he was forty-five.

Therefore, he was extremely fond of his son, Zhou Hai, and wished to give him all the best things in the world.

For Zhou Hai, he was willing to give everything.

"Vice President Zhou, calm down, your son will be fine as long as you follow my instructions. I promise he will be back in your arms by tomorrow!" the metallic voice said.

"What exactly do you want me to do?" Zhou Zheng asked, growing anxious.

"It’s simple, skip tomorrow’s board meeting at Lin’s Jewelry," the metallic voice said.

"What! But..." Zhou Zheng froze upon hearing this, his face showing a troubled expression.

He had previously promised Chen Feng to attend the board meeting and support Lin Wanqing, even making a guarantee.

But now, asking him to skip the board meeting was like forcing him to break his promise.

However, he had no choice but to do so for his son, even if it meant sacrificing his happiness for the rest of his life.

Thinking this, Zhou Zheng quickly agreed, "Alright, I agree!"

"Very good, Vice President Zhou, you certainly are decisive. After the board meeting ends tomorrow, as long as you are not present, your son will naturally return to your side!"

The metallic voice finished speaking and then hung up the call.

Listening to the beeping sound from the phone, Zhou Zheng’s face turned very grim; he had never been threatened like this before.

And the bargaining chip was his beloved son, which made him extremely angry.

Chen Feng was right next to Zhou Zheng and had clearly heard every word of the conversation over the phone.

This made Chen Feng frown.

Though the kidnappers had taken Zhou Zheng’s son, it was clear that they were targeting him and Lin Wanqing.

Chen Feng felt puzzled, who could it be?

Qian Long?

No, it shouldn’t be since he wouldn’t expect Zhou Zheng would agree to help Lin Wanqing.

Could it be the person behind Qian Long?

At that thought, Chen Feng nodded.

Ninety-nine percent sure it was him!

But who exactly was this person?

He could use such tactics the day before the board meeting to completely restrict Zhou Zheng and cut off all of Lin Wanqing’s hopes.

It had to be said, this level of audacity and ability was not something ordinary people possessed.

This made Chen Feng even more curious about the identity of the person behind Qian Long.

He was undoubtedly a formidable opponent!
