Chapter 445: Loving You Means Protecting You with My Life

"Ring-ring—"

The phone rang again, and Shi Youxuan grabbed it: "Hello—"

Feiying said: "I agree to you bringing a driver, but you can only let Sheng Hanyu be your driver; no one else will do."

Shi Youxuan:...

Now it was her turn to be in a difficult position.

She really wanted to say: Sheng Hanyu is not with me.

But in the end, she held back.

With a kidnapping of this scale and such a large sum of money, it was impossible for Feiying to let his guard down.

There should be his people at the airport; when their plane landed, how many people came in total, and what time they arrived—none of this should be able to escape Feiying's surveillance.

In the end, she still said: "No, his driving skills are the same as mine; you'd better change to someone else!"

Before Feiying could object, Sheng Hanyu snatched the phone away: "Fine, I agree to your terms. Give me an address."

Shi Youxuan was anxious: "What right do you have to agree? Sheng Hanyu, how can you be so irresponsible? Have you thought about it? If both of us are in danger, what will happen to Ranran? What about your parents? What about my father?"

Neither of them were people without attachments or worries anymore.

With elders above who needed support and children below who needed to be accompanied as they grew up, one could not just have eyes only for each other. That is not called sacrificing for love; that is being irresponsible!

"It's okay, we will both come back safely. Don't be pessimistic." Sheng Hanyu actually started to comfort her instead.

Shi Youxuan was extremely reluctant, but there was no other way.

Because she had dug this pit herself; she had taken the initiative to propose a driver, but she hadn't expected Feiying to designate the candidate.

Bank warehouse.

Workers used forklifts to load stacks of cash into the shipping container, filming the entire process on video before sending it to the designated email address.

Feiying was very cunning; only after seeing the money loaded and the vehicle sealed did he send the address over!

Although there was air conditioning in the warehouse, fine beads of sweat still seeped out on Shi Youxuan's forehead; she was a little nervous.

Anyone who thought about immediately venturing into a tiger's den would likely be nervous!

"Drink some water, don't be afraid, I'm here." Sheng Hanyu handed her an opened bottle of mineral water.

"Mm, I'm not afraid, we will rescue A Ning and Jin Wan'er." Shi Youxuan took the mineral water and drank several gulps in a row.

Sheng Hanyu urged her: "Drink some more, there won't be anywhere to find water halfway there."

So she gulped down another half bottle.

"Let's go."

Shi Youxuan grabbed the handrail, preparing to step into the passenger seat, but her foot felt as soft as if it were stepping on cotton, her hands couldn't muster any strength, and her eyelids felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, so heavy she couldn't open them!

"You bastard..."

Before she could finish saying the words "you drugged me," she fell limply into Sheng Hanyu's arms.

A smile from the heart appeared on Sheng Hanyu's face, and he pressed a kiss to the forehead of the person in his arms: "I'm sorry Xuanxuan, I lied to you again. I promise this is the last time!"

After speaking, he handed Shi Youxuan over to the people who had followed behind.

He instructed his third brother and Jian Yixin: "Take good care of her, mainly keep an eye on her!"

Sheng Zerong nodded: "Don't worry, Big Brother, I will definitely keep an eye on my sister-in-law."

Jian Yixin said nothing, only nodding repeatedly in agreement with her husband.

At this moment, there was no need for many words, not even a need to exchange glances; everything was understood without being spoken!

Sheng Hanyu got into the car, started it, and the heavy-tonnage truck slowly drove out of the warehouse, heading toward the location designated by Feiying.

Sheng Hanyu could not be entirely confident about what was waiting for him ahead.

It was precisely because he couldn't be that he used a little trick to leave Shi Youxuan behind and go to exchange the hostages himself.

At the moment before departure.

Sheng Hanyu had sent Shi Youxuan away and promised Jian Yixin and the elderly Jin couple that he would definitely rescue Jian Yining and Jin Wan'er.

But if he could not return, he asked Jian Yixin to take care of Shi Youxuan and her daughter in the future!

When Shi Youxuan went up against others, she basically didn't suffer losses.

But if no one was working against her, her shortcomings were exposed—her ability to take care of herself in daily life was too poor!

If no one took care of her, she wouldn't even be able to get enough to eat.

All the food she made herself could be called "weight-loss meals."

Sheng Hanyu couldn't let go of her at all.

But there was no other way; he had to go.

Or rather, he was the only person who could take Shi Youxuan's place.

Jian Yixin nodded solemnly and said to Sheng Hanyu as if taking an oath: "If that day really comes, I will immediately divorce, move over to live with Shi Youxuan and Shi Ran. If they lose even a single hair, you can come back as a ghost and strangle me."

At a time like this, saying such things was not very auspicious.

But what he needed right now was not flowery blessings; Jian Yixin's promise put his mind at ease, and only such a promise could allow him to be single-minded.

Sheng Hanyu's car sped along the highway like a bolt of lightning when suddenly a drone flew over his head.

The drone kept circling above the driver's cabin, as if it were monitoring him.

At this moment, Sheng Hanyu's phone rang.

After connecting, Feiying's voice came through the phone, extremely dissatisfied: "What kind of trick are you playing? Where is Shi Youxuan?"

Sheng Hanyu admitted it straightforwardly: "Before setting off, I gave her water mixed with a high-potency sleeping pill; she has been drugged by me."

"Sheng Hanyu, you dare to play me? Do you think I don't dare to kill you?" Feiying roared.

At the same time, the drone flying at a low altitude seemed to coordinate with his words, flying one meter forward before maintaining that distance.

He could clearly see the bomb strapped to the drone; if Feiying wished, he could blow him up at any moment.

Then, they would bring a tow truck to haul the truck away; the shipping container filled with cash was made of special steel plates, so ordinary bombs would be useless.

However, it was more than enough to blow a person to death.

Sheng Hanyu was very calm: "Heh, you won't do that; Zhu Yiwen wouldn't agree to you blowing me up."

Feiying exclaimed: "How do you know he is here?"

After calling it out, he realized he had made a slip of the tongue, but regret was useless. Words once spoken could not be taken back.

It was exactly as he had guessed.

Sheng Hanyu did not answer his question, but instead said: "You tell Zhu Yiwen that I have greater ability than Shi Youxuan, and he won't lose out by controlling me."

After speaking, he hung up the phone.

Feiying did not call back, and Sheng Hanyu knew he had succeeded!

At the very least, the first step was a success.

Ahead was a mountain tunnel.

The tunnel was very long, taking at least ten minutes to pass through.

Sheng Hanyu had a premonition that they would pull some tricks here, so he couldn't help but heighten his vigilance!

The car entered the tunnel, and three minutes after driving in, Feiying called again: "Pull over to the side of the road now and get into the black Mercedes behind you; our people will take over this truck."

Sheng Hanyu did not stop; he refused: "No, before I see Jian Yining and Jin Wan'er, I am staying with the truck; as long as I am here, the truck stays!"

To put it bluntly, it would be better to say he was staying with the money.

He wasn't stupid; he wouldn't be foolish enough to hand over the money before seeing if the hostages were safe!

That would truly make him someone who went out of his way just to deliver money.

"Sheng Hanyu, you had better make it clear who you are talking to." Feiying's voice deepened; this was the precursor to him getting angry.

Sheng Hanyu: "I am speaking to Feiying, a figure who gives police all over the world a headache, ruthless and decisive, yet also quite honorable." He buttered up Feiying without leaving a trace.

Facts proved that flattery worked very well when done right.

Especially when Sheng Hanyu used this tactic, the effect was even better!

Feiying did not get angry again, and he didn't even continue to insist that Sheng Hanyu get out of the car, as if this matter had never happened at all.
