Chapter 102 Final Deadline

“5:00 p.m.?”

Luo Chen asked again.

“Yes, if you’re a minute late, you’ll see if I dare to really kill her!”

The kidnapper paused, as if he was listening to someone else. Then, he continued to threaten. “Alright, I understand.”

Luo Chen agreed and hung up.

On the other side, Su Han held his cell phone in disbelief.

“How dare he hang up on me! I haven’t finished talking!”

Su Han panted heavily. His excessive anger had even caused his face to turn red.

At the side, Luo Tianming was waiting anxiously. After all, whether he could make a comeback this time depended on Luo Chen’s money.

Su Han had already agreed to split half of the money with him.

One hundred million was enough for him to restart construction and catch up to Luo Chen in a short period of time.

Moreover, Luo Chen’s problem at the construction site had yet to be completely resolved. It would take a lot of time to arrange everything properly.

“Well… he might have his own thoughts. This person has always been like this. He’s unpredictable.”

Luo Tianming hesitated for a long time and said uncertainly.

Based on his understanding of Luo Chen, his instincts told him that things might not go smoothly.

It was really…

‘It went too well, didn’t it?’ Based on the current situation, they didn’t have to do anything but wait for Luo Chen to send the money over at five in the evening. But would Luo Chen really agree to hand over two hundred million yuan so easily?

Even with the size of Luo Chen’s company, 200 million yuan was enough to hurt his business.

After all, it was not a transfer of assets, but real cash. Under such circumstances, it would directly cause his cash flow to be disrupted. The consequences were basically equivalent to declaring bankruptcy.

Did Luo Chen have other means to revive the company, or did he not want the money at all?

“By the way, did you say that someone came to check on us earlier? He didn’t catch anything on us, did he?”

Luo Tianming felt uneasy and asked again.

“That’s impossible. I’ve already discovered his intentions and misled him.

Speaking of which, it’s strange. I didn’t discover it at first. After all, the other party did it very secretly. However, it seems like someone is secretly helping us. It seems exceptionally simple to mislead him to follow the wrong clues.”

Su Han became excited at the mention of this.

When he received the anonymous message, he was really shocked.

Because that person nearly found their hiding place!

If this news reached Luo Chen’s ears, the two of them would be jailed for years!

Fortunately, there was that anonymous message.

In fact, if Luo Chen knew the inside story, he could clearly tell that the kidnapping did not happen out of thin air.

This section was also included in the original plot.

It was only because of the chaos in the world that the kidnapping scene and Luo Tianming’s power struggle were mixed together.

The original plot was that the protagonist group had obtained the help of the mysterious person and completely shattered the villain’s plot.

He used a fake kidnapping trick to lure the snake out of its hole, causing Luo Chen to suffer a huge loss.

At the same time, another part of the plot was that Luo Tianming had used commercial methods to make Luo Chen embarrass himself in several important projects. He then had offended almost all his partners, causing the company to plummet till there was no room for negotiation.

The combination of the two important turning points became a new plot that was out of place. However, the same thing had happened in both the two plots.

That was, the protagonist group had obtained the help of a mysterious person.

To Su Han and Luo Tianming, Lin Tian was the mysterious person.

On the other hand, if Zhao Ruoshuang had not been kidnapped, Lin Tian would not have found such a good opportunity to stop Luo Chen’s construction work.

This time, all the troubles surfaced.

Naturally, Luo Chen did not know about this.

He only stretched after hanging up the phone and slowly walked to the bathroom to wash up.

After everything was settled, he went to the office as usual.

All along, Luo Chen was only of the mind to cross that bridge when he came to it. Since things had already come to this, it was impossible for it to continue spiraling downwards.

There were still eight hours before 5 p.m.. If he really couldn’t find the hiding place of those kidnappers for the time being, Luo Chen was prepared to temporarily transfer his liquid funds to fill the hole of 200 million.

After all, he could not watch helplessly while Zhao Ruoshuang’s life hung in the balance. When he arrived at the company, he vaguely felt that the atmosphere was not right. From the moment he walked into the company, the employees’ gazes seemed to be a little too persistent as they kept staring at him. They were even discussing softly. However, Luo Chen did not take it to heart.

There were too many things to do now. If the employees really had any opinions, he would come back and slowly sort it out after everything was settled.

With this thought in mind, Luo Chen returned to his office.

However, just as he pushed open the door, he was shocked by the pungent smell of blood.

Looking closely, there was a person lying on the sofa. He had already fallen asleep. From the blood on his body and his disheveled appearance, the smell of blood came from him. “Ye Bei?!”

Luo Chen spent some effort to see who this person was and immediately exclaimed. Other than the last time, this was the first time he had seen Ye Bei suffer such serious injuries!

Wasn’t he supposed to be an invincible bodyguard?

He was so powerful in the original story. But why was it that when he started working for him, he was so lousy?

“Uh… you’re here.

11 Ye Bei had always been vigilant. When he heard Luo Chen’s voice, even in his deepest sleep, he immediately woke up and stared at him in a daze.

“What happened?”

Luo Chen pulled a chair over and sat a distance away from Ye Bei.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to care about this protagonist, but the smell of blood was too unpleasant. He was afraid that he would accidentally vomit on Ye Bei. “I found the news.”

Ye Bei let out a long breath and sat up with difficulty.

“No… don’t move first. The news is secondary.

You just recovered not long ago and you’re like this again. Are you alright?” Luo Chen was indeed a little flustered. If the protagonist died because he helped him, the development of the matter would probably be even more uncontrollable. The fusion of worlds had already caused many anomalies in the plot. There were some things that he could not be sure of.

If the entire world was shaken by the death of the protagonist, who knew what would happen?

As a transmigrator, the greatest advantage was actually his understanding of the plot.
