"Well, what do you want to do? Let me go."

Yang Qianqian's surprised voice came from the other end of the phone. Zhou Xuanqing was stunned. He immediately braked to a stop, not caring that his car was still on the sidewalk.

For a moment, there was only the sound of a car whistle and a horn, followed by a variety of curses.

Zhou Xuan Qing couldn't care less as he listened attentively to the various voices coming from the other side of the phone. He frowned heavily as his heart skipped a beat.

Soon, he heard voices coming from the other end of the phone. It sounded like the voice belonged to a man.

"You're Zhou Xuanqing?"

As the other party asked this question, Zhou Xuanqing hurriedly answered, "Yes, I am." "Why did you capture Yang Qianqian? What did you do to her?"

She was really worried and did not have time to think about it.

After confirming Zhou Xuanqing's identity, the other party smiled sinisterly and spoke slowly, "We haven't done anything to her, but we won't be able to say anything for a while."

Hearing the words of the criminal, Zhou Xuanqing's heart sank, and he somewhat understood what was going on. It was very possible that she was after him. As for why she would use Yang Qianqian to threaten him, she really couldn't understand. Forcing himself to calm down, he frowned and asked, "What do you want?"

The criminal took a long time to answer, "Actually, what we wanted was very simple."

It was only natural, but Zhou Xuan Qing was cursing silently in his heart. But he tried his best to be tactful, "No matter what you want, please don't hurt Yang Qianqian."

Hearing that Zhou Xuanqing was in such a hurry for Yang Qianqian, the criminal finally felt reassured. With a sinister smile, he said, "Alright, as long as you agree to our conditions, we will naturally let her go."

Zhou Xuan Qing's heart sank. He was afraid that if he continued to park the car in the middle of the road, it would attract the police. Suppressing the pressure, he slowly turned the car to the side of the road and asked, "What condition?"

The criminal laughed loudly, this time he spoke in a casual tone, "Our condition is, you have to use yourself to exchange."

"What?" She couldn't stop herself from exclaiming.

The smile on the criminal's face grew bigger and bigger. "Miss Zhou, we will be waiting for your call quietly."

After he finished speaking, he directly hung up the phone.

"Hey!" Hey! "Hey!" Zhou Xuanqing was struck dumb. After three consecutive "Hello", there was only the sound of a "doo doo doo doo" from the other end of the line.

Her left hand fell limply on the steering wheel.

What should he do?

Zhou Xuanqing asked himself over and over, but he still couldn't make up his mind.

Was he really going to trade her for Yang Qianqian?

After some thought, Zhou Xuanqing was still unable to make up his mind.

She knew that if she called the police now, it would disturb the criminal. Plus, she didn't know where the criminal was, what if it dragged on for too long and the criminal hurt Yang Qianqian?

Forget it, he might as well call He Qingyu and see if there were any good methods.

After some thought, Zhou Xuan Qing picked up his phone and made a call. But for some reason, the phone rang for a long time and no one answered.

Helpless, Zhou Xuanqing could only hang up the phone. Instead, he called little Joe, and this time the call was quickly picked up.

"Hey!" Director Zhou, do you have any news about Qianqian? "

It seemed that little Qiao was very anxious. Before she could say anything, he asked first.

Zhou Xuanqing nodded and replied with a solemn expression.

Hearing Zhou Xueqing's tone, Little Qiao continued to ask, "What's wrong, Director Zhou? Did something happen to Qianqian?"

Taking a deep breath, Zhou Xuan Qing didn't know how to explain what had happened. She only replied, "Qianqian is fine now, but …"

"But what?" Little Qiao signaled the few people surrounding her to be quiet and not make a sound. Then, she asked again, "What happened to Qianqian?"

Zhou Xuanqing replied, "She is now being held by criminals, but I do not know where she is being held." The gangster just called me and said … "

Hearing that Yang Qianqian had been caught by the criminal, he didn't have the time to listen to what Zhou Xueqing had to say. One by one, they exclaimed, "What?! Yang Qianqian was caught by the criminal?"

The other one was more composed, "Then hurry up and call the police!"

When most people are in danger, their first reaction is to call the people's police.

Hearing their discussion, Zhou Xuan Qing immediately shouted, "Don't call the police!"

His voice was so loud that it silenced Little Qiao and the rest. The group fell silent, waiting for Zhou Xuanqing to explain why he had not called the police.

Taking another deep breath, Zhou Xueqing suddenly came to a decision. He said word by word to Qiao Qiao and the others on the other end of the phone calmly, "The criminal just made a request to me on the phone, and they told me to trade myself for Yang Qianqian."

"What?" The criminal wants you to trade yourself for Yang Qianqian? " Little Qiao and the others were stunned again.

"Yes, I'm going to call now. Tell them I do. "

Zhou Xuanqing's words were surprisingly calm.

He was so calm that it surprised Little Qiao and the others, but still directly objected, "How can we do that, Director Zhou. How can you use yourself to exchange for Yang Qianqian? "

He Qingyu, who just drove over to the Zhou Enterprise, had just entered the design department when he heard the words of Little Qiao and the others. Ye Zichen quickly walked over and snatched the phone away.

"Zhou Xuan Qing, listen to me. I forbid you from doing anything stupid."

His voice was filled with authority, and the expression on his cold face was terrifyingly gloomy.

However, Zhou Xueqing, who had hung up the phone due to the incoming call, did not hear anything. She pressed the answer button. The voice that came from the other end was that of the criminal who had just called.

The criminal: "Miss Zhou, we don't have much time left for you!"

Hearing these words, Zhou Xuanqing's heart rose. He nervously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, closed his eyes, and asked, "Where are you? I'm willing to trade myself for it. "

The criminal's false praise came quickly, "Miss Zhou is so kind. She is actually willing to exchange her life for a subordinate."

Even though he knew the criminal was trying to scare him, Zhou Xuan Qing couldn't help but shiver. With great difficulty, he maintained his composure and said, "Tell me where you are."

"Return to the west side of the south road. When you come to this area, I will tell you the exact location."

Zhou Xuan Qing could only agree.

Then he drove, turned on the GPS navigation system and headed back to the south road.

Half an hour later, they arrived.

Zhou Xueqing parked his car by the side of the road, took out his mobile phone, and called the criminal.

The other party picked up very quickly. The person who answered the phone was still the criminal from before.

Zhou Xuanqing told himself that he had to remain calm. "I'm here. Tell me where you are."

The criminal on the other side grinned. "You sure are fast!"

Zhou Xuanqing said, "Cut the crap!"

The criminal: "I'm not talking nonsense. I just want to make sure that you didn't call the police."

"I didn't call the police." Zhou Xuan Qing replied quickly, but she knew that the culprit might not believe her.

Sure enough, the other person continued, "You should now drive around the West City Square three times. After our people confirm that you didn't call the police, I will tell you the details of the address."

He had not expected that the criminal would be so cunning. Zhou Xueqing had originally planned to call the police when the criminal told him the exact location. Thus, he could only give up on this idea.

She lowered her voice and agreed, "Alright, I will drive there now. I hope you will keep your word this time."

The criminal: "Of course."

After hanging up, Zhou Xueqing turned the steering wheel, started the car, and drove towards the West City Square.

Just like that, another half an hour passed. During this time, the criminal had Zhou Xuan Qing walk around several corners before finally giving her the exact location.

With his heart in his throat, Zhou Xuan Qing slowly drove the car away.

About ten minutes later, they reached an abandoned building.

The building didn't seem to be very big. The first floor was covered with rusted steel doors. It was obvious that no one had lived here for a long time.

Zhou Xuanqing parked the car at the entrance, then opened the door and got out. When he arrived at the iron gate, the wind around him was a little strong.

She raised her hand and pushed the door open.

Not long after he walked up the stairs, two masked men took hold of his phone from his left and right. They then took him to a room on the third floor and locked him up.

There was another person locked in the room, it was Yang Qianqian.

Yang Qianqian's mouth was sealed with tape. She could not speak at all and her hands and feet were tied.

Very quickly, Zhou Xueqing, who was also tied up by a rope, let out a sigh of relief when he saw that Yang Qianqian's hair and clothes were still neat and tidy.

Yang Qianqian was very excited to see Zhou Xueqing being brought in by the criminal from the outside. She kept making 'wuwu' sounds with her mouth covered by the adhesive tape.

Zhou Xuanqing smiled and comforted her, "It's fine, Qianqian."

Because she couldn't fool him, her smile didn't seem so natural.

Of course, Yang Qianqian did not believe him. She did not know why Zhou Xuanqing had been caught in this trap. He shook his head vigorously in nervousness as his eyes widened, signalling Zhou Xuanqing to think of something.

The two criminals were ready to walk out, but seeing that their eyes were constantly communicating and it was too noisy, they walked over and kicked Yang Qianqian who was moving around randomly.

"Be quiet, if you make any more noise, then we brothers will deal with you on the spot."

Most of it sounded scary, but it could also be true.

Yang Qianqian was so scared that she immediately sat still and didn't dare to move. Her eyes were filled with tears.

Zhou Xuanqing thought to himself that perhaps Yang Qianqian had never experienced such a thing in her life, just like him. Even she was so nervous, it was normal for Yang Qian to be scared.

Returning to the West City Square on South Road, through He Qingyu, who had asked for help from the auto sales company and the police, it was difficult for him to find out that Zhou Xueqing had arrived there an hour ago.

However, he did not know where Zhou Xuan Qing had gone to, and the result was that he had to be investigated by the police.

The time he had to wait was the longest, especially when he was worried that something would happen to the person he was waiting for.

He Qing Yu was anxious and angry. He was angry that Zhou Xuan Qing had not spoken to him or discussed anything, and had proceeded recklessly on his own.

After waiting restlessly in the car for half an hour, the police called and told He Qingyu that the location of Zhou Xueqing's mobile phone was in the northern part of West City.

After hanging up the phone, He Qingyu did not even think as he immediately drove over.

He only had one thought in his mind, and that was that he hoped that nothing had happened to Zhou Xuanqing.

They sped along the way and finally arrived at a seemingly abandoned building. They saw Zhou Xueqing's car.

He Qingyu, who had been tightly gripping the steering wheel the whole time, finally breathed a sigh of relief. He hurriedly braked to open the door, and quickly rushed inside.

Inside the room on the third floor of the abandoned building, three criminals who had received precise instructions walked in one after another. Looking at the beautiful Zhou Xuanqing, all of them couldn't help but smile obscenely.

Who would have thought that there would be such a cheap thing in the world? Not until he received a large sum of money, but he still had a beauty to enjoy.

Having seen through the criminal's intentions, Zhou Xuanqing nervously kicked back several steps. "What are you guys trying to do?!"
