Chapter 116

“Qin Feng, save me, Chen Yiyang has snatched Luo Le away...”

In the taxi,

Luo Nian was in total despair, tears streaming down her face as she spoke into the phone.

On the other end of the line,

After a brief moment of surprise, Qin Feng immediately regained his composure: “Luo Nian, don’t panic. Where are you right now?”

“I’m in a taxi. I’ve asked the driver to follow Chen Yiyang’s car!”

“Good. Luo Nian, turn on the speakerphone and hand the phone to the driver.”

“Okay.”

Luo Nian responded obediently.

Although she didn’t understand why Qin Feng wanted her to do this,

she was very compliant, turned on the speakerphone, and handed the phone to the taxi driver: “Master, please listen to the call. It’s already on speaker.”

“Ah, alright.”

The taxi driver took the phone, placed it on the dashboard, and said, “Hello, I’m the driver. I’m following that car right now!”

“Alright, thank you for your hard work, Master.”

On this end of the line,

Qin Feng said in a very steady voice: “Master, I need the real-time location of that car. If it’s just you following it alone, it will be very easy for them to shake you off.”

“So, Master, I need you to help me call other taxis nearby. I will pay one thousand yuan as a service fee for every car. Once I meet up with you all later, I will pay it all in full on the spot.”

“One thousand? That works! We taxi drivers might not even make a thousand in a full day and night of driving. Alright, just tell us what to do, and we’ll do it!”

“Alright, Master. Please help me call at least 20 taxis. Follow the route of the car ahead, and once we meet up, follow it together. It would be best if you could surround the car I’m chasing from the front, back, left, and right.”

“No problem. We taxi drivers have top-notch skills, don’t you worry. Alright, and what do we do after we surround it?”

“I’ll send a location shortly. Once you’ve confirmed you have it surrounded, force that car to drive toward the location. If any collisions or other incidents occur during this process, I will take full responsibility.”

“Young man, are you serious?”

“Of course. I’ll have Luo Nian transfer 100,000 yuan as a deposit to you right now. Call as many taxis as you can for me!”

After Qin Feng finished speaking,

he transferred 100,000 yuan to Luo Nian via WeChat,

and then said: “Luo Nian, scan the code and transfer it to the driver.”

“Okay.”

Luo Nian nodded obediently and scanned the payment code directly.

Then, a notification sounded inside the car: “WeChat received one hundred thousand yuan!”

“Holy cow?”

The driver was instantly excited. He immediately checked his phone, and upon confirming the one hundred thousand yuan had arrived,

the driver immediately said: “Miss, and this boss, don’t you worry at all. I will definitely handle this matter for you perfectly!”

After saying that,

the driver pressed the car’s intercom,

and shouted: “Calling all units on Jinghua Road, calling all units on Jinghua Road! Help me block a car, license plate Jing NX6847. One thousand per car, cash on the spot!”

“Jinghua Road units, one thousand per person, get here fast!”

Just as the driver put down the intercom,

numerous calls came through:

“285, are you crazy? How can you offer one thousand per person? Can you even earn one thousand after working yourself to the bone for a day?”

“Is this for real?! If it’s real, I’m coming over right now!”

“285, don’t mess around. I’m on Jinghua Road right now!”

“I’m not joking with you guys, it’s real! A young lady in my backseat had her child snatched. I’m following that 847 car right now!”

[Phone number/code]

“A boss just made an offer: one thousand per car. Just keep your eyes locked on that 847. He already transferred a 100,000 yuan deposit to me!”

“Damn! This kind of thing is still happening in this day and age?! Snatching a child in broad daylight?! That’s outrageous! Brothers, let’s do it!”

“Exactly, such a wicked thing, I’d do it even without the money! Jinghua Road, right? I’m coming!”

“285, did the boss say how many people he needs? Can I come too?”

“I’m in, I’m in! I can make money and earn some good karma at the same time, I have to do it!”

“285, keep reporting the location. We’ll wait at the intersection and force that 847 to stop!”

“No need, no need. The boss said he’ll give me an address later. We’ll just box in the 847 and drive toward that direction.”

“Also, the boss said if there’s any scraping or crashing, he’ll pay for everything. We won’t have to pay a cent!”

“Alright! With the boss’s word, we’re relieved. 285, report the location, report the location!”

The taxi driver immediately reported the location of the 847 and his own,

and then, voices shouting “I’m coming, I’m coming” filled the intercom.

Hearing these voices,

the heart that Luo Nian had been holding in her throat finally relaxed a little.

The driver also comforted her: “Don’t worry, Miss. Even without the money, I would have found a way to help you chase them.”

“Now that there’s a boss willing to look out for us laborers, we’ll go all out and definitely get your child back safe and sound!”

“Okay, thank you.”

Luo Nian’s eyes welled up again, and she choked out a “thank you” to the driver.

In the Mercedes with the license plate ending in 847,

the driver looked at Luo Le, who was still crying and hitting Chen Yiyang,

and asked with some surprise: “Wait, Chen Yiyang, is this little girl your daughter? Why isn’t she close to you at all?! You aren’t tricking us into helping you steal a child, are you?!”

The other person accompanying them also said: “Yeah, Brother Chen, you said she’s your daughter, but she doesn’t look like you at all.”

“She is my daughter!”

Chen Yiyang roared,

forced himself to pull Luo Le’s hand off his hair,

and then slapped Luo Le hard on the body.

He then grabbed Luo Le by the shoulder and roared viciously: “Luo Le, you better behave! If you make another sound, I’ll throw you out right now, believe it or not?!”

“Mommy—ahhh—Mommy—ahhhh—”

Three-year-old Luo Le only knew how to express her terror and unease through crying,

so she cried even louder.

Chen Yiyang’s eyes turned red, and he gritted his teeth,

then covered Luo Le’s mouth!

What the hell?!

The driver and the person accompanying them were both stunned.

The two exchanged a look,

and then,

the person in the backseat immediately pulled Chen Yiyang’s hand away: “Chen Yiyang, are you crazy? You’ll cause a disaster if you cover her mouth like that!”

“Stop it, everyone stop, stop it.”

The driver in the front seat was already getting scared,

and said while trying to control his emotions: “Chen Yiyang, calm down. Don’t do anything rash. This girl is so small, let her cry if she wants. Everyone, just bear with it, bear with it.”

The driver’s words

finally helped Chen Yiyang regain some sanity.

The three of them turned their heads to look out the window, avoiding eye contact.

Then,

Chen Yiyang noticed something was wrong.

Why, all of a sudden,

were there more and more taxis around them?
