Chapter 5: Because You Are a Good Person
"The people who kidnapped my son are the ones who contacted me first. I can't reach them, but by going through Zhang Daya, I can make the kidnappers contact me voluntarily. Can I make a call now?" Zhao Xianghua revealed everything without any hesitation.
At the same time, he stared at Ye Fan, as if waiting for instructions. As long as Ye Fan told him to call, he would immediately make the call.
A distinguished business mogul reduced to such a timid state in front of Ye Fan was truly astonishing.
"Go ahead." Ye Fan instructed casually.
Zhao Xianghua immediately dialed Zhang Daya's number and put it on speakerphone. He didn't know what Ye Fan intended to do, but he couldn't disobey Ye Fan's command. Deep down, he also held onto some hope; he had already sensed that Ye Fan was someone formidable. If his son could be saved unharmed, he would do anything. With his son in the hands of the kidnappers, even if he followed Zhang Daya's instructions, he couldn't guarantee his son's safety. Therefore, he especially hoped that Ye Fan would rescue his son, and by then, he would follow any of Ye Fan's commands without fail.
The phone rang for a few seconds before Zhang Daya answered.
"President Zhang, I accept all your demands. I just want to ensure my son's safety," Zhao Xianghua was the first to speak. He adjusted his breathing and didn't show any signs of distress, as he didn't want to slip up and dissatisfy Ye Fan.
"Good, very good. I knew President Zhao would give me, Zhang, this bit of respect. Quickly prepare the contract for the transfer of shares. Don't worry; your son is fine. We've been working together for years as friends; how could I bear to harm my nephew?" Zhang Daya's voice carried a tone of roguishness and smugness.
"I just want to hear my son's voice now. As long as he's okay, I'll immediately start fulfilling your demands," Zhao Xianghua said with determination, showing he would do anything for his son.
"You don't trust my integrity? Am I a man who doesn't keep his word?" Zhang Daya was displeased.
"What's President Zhang saying? I'm just missing my son. I know President Zhao is a man of his word," Zhao Xianghua flattered.
