619: Chapter 617 Kidnapping?

The conversation between Chen Yang and Wu Kexin had been very quiet, and since these seven people were already scared out of their wits, they didn’t hear a thing Chen Yang said to Wu Kexin.

So when they saw Chen Yang coming over, they thought he was going to set the fire.

Then they began to kowtow and beg for mercy again, bobbing their heads as if it cost them nothing.

“Please, spare me.

As long as you spare me, I can agree to anything you want, I can give you anything, just don’t kill me.” Among the seven, only the one from the Gu Family was a bit louder in begging for mercy, and the words he said had more substance, constantly promising benefits to Chen Yang.

As for the others, maybe because they had no bargaining chips, they could only incessantly plead for mercy.

Chen Yang had long noticed the gap between their pleas, but at the time he didn’t take it seriously.

But now that he realized the person before him held a special status as a direct descendant of the Gu Family, Chen Yang immediately became interested.

“What’s your name?”

Chen Yang asked with a stern face.

“Please, let me go…” The man was so used to kowtowing and begging that he didn’t immediately respond to Chen Yang’s question.

“You…

are you asking me?”

He lifted his head, pointing to himself.

“If I’m not asking you, then who am I asking?” Chen Yang frowned slightly.

“I…

my name is Gu Mingxuan.” Seeing Chen Yang frown, Gu Mingxuan got startled again and promptly answered Chen Yang’s question respectfully.

“You said just now that as long as I spare you, you can agree to anything, right?” After asking his name, Chen Yang said this.

At this moment, his mindset had changed.

Since Wu Kexin said that Gu Mingxuan held a special status and could not be killed, then it must be okay to benefit from him, right?

Gu Mingxuan was stunned for a moment, then immediately nodded after catching on: “Right, right, right, as long as you spare me, I can agree to anything.”

“Alright, then.

The shares of the gold mine on the back mountain, give me ten percent.

As long as you can give that, I will spare your lives.” Seeing Gu Mingxuan nod, Chen Yang didn’t beat around the bush and directly stated his condition.

He needed ten percent of the gold mine’s shares.

Just a second ago, Gu Mingxuan’s heart was filled with relief…

because he felt he wasn’t going to die and could use money to buy his life.

But when Chen Yang stated his conditions, the excitement in his heart instantly plummeted.

“Ten percent of the mine’s shares?

How…

how could that be possible!” Gu Mingxuan answered with a blank expression.

“Not possible?

Then there’s nothing more to say.

Go to hell.” Upon hearing the refusal, Chen Yang decisively pulled out his lighter, ignited the flame, and made a determined gesture as if about to set the fire.

Gu Mingxuan, seeing this posture, immediately burst into tears.

He quickly waved his hands begging for mercy: “No, no, no, don’t light it, let’s talk this over.

Please don’t light it!”

“Chen Yang!”

Even Wu Kexin was startled by Chen Yang’s convincing acting.

She thought Chen Yang was going to light the fire again.

Actually, Chen Yang was just trying to scare Gu Mingxuan.

And his action indeed proved effective.

Seeing Chen Yang’s firm attitude, Gu Mingxuan didn’t dare risk losing his only chance at life.

“This is a major issue, I can’t agree to it on my own, but I can make a call to discuss it.” Gu Mingxuan said while crying.

Chen Yang also knew that such a big decision was not up to Gu Mingxuan alone; the agreement of the Gu Family was necessary, otherwise, it would be useless.

So he agreed with a smile.

“Of course, this can be arranged.”

As Gu Mingxuan had been doused with gasoline, his mobile phone naturally could not be used, so Chen Yang tossed his own over to him.

At this moment, Gu Mingxuan was truly terrified and didn’t dare delay a second after getting the phone.

He immediately picked up the phone and began making contact.

The first person he reached out to was Gu Hongwei, the middle-aged man who had met with Chen Yang once before.

“Hello, Uncle Wei, I’m in trouble.

Someone wants to kill me…” As soon as the call connected, Gu Mingxuan burst into tears, explaining his predicament.

On the other end of the call, Gu Hongwei became uncontrollably furious after hearing about the situation.

Chen Yang and Wu Kexin, standing a good distance away, could clearly hear Gu Hongwei’s roar on the phone.

“What?

There are such people?

Daring to extort the Gu Family?

Are they tired of living?

Where are you right now?” Gu Hongwei bellowed furiously.

“I’m currently at Liuheshan Village…

inside a family’s courtyard.

We’ve been tied up, and if you don’t agree to his demands, I’m going to light the match and burn us all.” With a trembling voice, Gu Mingxuan replied, his eyes darting back and forth across Chen Yang’s face.

He dared not meet Chen Yang’s gaze, yet he wanted to discern any change in Chen Yang’s expression.

“Liuheshan Village?

The small village just beneath our mining site?

Alright, tell him to wait.

I’ll come over right away to talk to him face-to-face.” Upon hearing that Gu Mingxuan’s life was in imminent danger, Gu Hongwei was no longer as enraged.

Instead, he spoke with suppressed anger.

“Yes, yes, come quickly, Uncle Wei.

If you are late, I won’t have a life anymore,” Gu Mingxuan said.

“Got it, coming right away.”

Gu Hongwei responded again and then hung up the phone.

“Big Brother…

they’re coming over to talk to you soon.

Do you think this will be okay?” Gu Mingxuan respectfully handed the mobile phone back to Chen Yang.

Chen Yang didn’t speak, merely nodding slightly.

Afterward, the whole backyard fell silent except for the trembling sounds coming from Gu Mingxuan and the other seven people.

Not another sound was heard.

After a few minutes, Wu Kexin took Chen Yang aside and whispered, “Chen Yang, aren’t you asking for too much here, demanding ten percent of the mining stake?

How could the Gu family possibly agree to that?”

After speaking, Wu Kexin added with some worry, “And you know the nature of the Gu family as well as I do.

If they come over, they’re not going to negotiate nicely with you—they’ll definitely threaten you to release them.

Then the situation will become very tricky.”

Wu Kexin’s concerns weren’t without reason.

Asking for ten percent of the stake was indeed far from realistic; it was a gold mine that could make the rich and powerful in the provincial city green with envy.

They wouldn’t so easily let Chen Yang take away ten percent.

However, if Wu Kexin could think of these things, Chen Yang naturally had as well.

And if he had thought of them but still proceeded in this way, he obviously had his own plans.

“Heh, Kexin, I know all that you’ve mentioned, and I have a plan in mind, don’t worry about it,” Chen Yang said with a mysterious smile to reassure Wu Kexin.

If it had been any other matter, Wu Kexin would have believed Chen Yang unconditionally.

But today they were dealing with the Gu family, the financial tycoons of the provincial city!

How could she be at ease?

“Tell me what you’re planning; otherwise, I won’t feel at ease,” Wu Kexin said, worried.

Chen Yang intended to leave, but seeing Wu Kexin’s concern, he decided to share his plan.

“It’s unrealistic to ask for ten percent of the mining stake, but four percent isn’t too much, right?

Is this heir of the direct line not worth that much?”

Chen Yang let out a laugh and then continued, “As for the Gu family’s threats, I’m even less worried about them.”

“The Gu family is mining here in our territory.

If they offend me, I can cause them some trouble, right?”

“If the Gu family still wants to threaten me, aren’t you here?

You can be the justice on my behalf.

They want to kill me for no reason; isn’t it right that they should compensate me?”
