Chapter 1486 - 1479: Beautiful Landscapes and Beauties (1)
If the other party had asked for a hundred million, or even slightly more, Qin Zhiyou might still consider paying. What he truly feared, however, was that they would not specify an exact amount of money, but instead use her as a bargaining chip.
Now that Hanhai is facing a critical moment, even though she has not spoken to Qin Zhiyou on the phone, the hastily retracted headlines and rushed deletes from trending searches made it abundantly clear that a major chaos had erupted. Hanhai is short on funds. To be exact, like any heavily indebted real estate company dependent on capital flow, none is without a cash shortage. Hanhai has numerous projects, purchased land plots and countless completed malls and residences, but these assets are hard to liquidize in a short period of time.
With Hanhai in trouble, the shortfall is indeed cash. Under such circumstances, a kidnapping, even if she ends up being harmed without fulfilling any of the abductors’ wishes, could significantly drain Qin Zhiyou’s energy and worsen Hanhai’s already bleak public image, painting it even more vividly.
Thinking about it, those who kidnapped her are likely to have conflicting interests with him. Perhaps the third house, the Bai Family, or as previously mentioned, Zhongtian Steel.
Lu Weixi’s composure even earned her a bottle of drink from the two kidnappers. They were rough, forcing water down her throat, making her cough incessantly.
But after drinking the water, she sat quietly like a chicken, not uttering another word.
To this day, she doesn’t doubt Qin Zhiyou’s feelings for her. Qin Zhiyou does love her, not just because she is carrying his child, nor merely because of the years they’ve spent together. She holds a significant place in his heart. But when her worth is compared to that of the entire Hanhai, what does she amount to?
Hanhai is not just the company he runs; it is his family business, a belief inspired by his father that he fought so hard to reclaim, his totem.
Qin Zhiyou might forsake other women for her, but he would not trade all of Hanhai for her.
