Chapter 39 Ultimatum

Although I don't believe it.

Of course, if you insist on the second candidate, it is Mr. Chen, and it is possible that he did all this, but with Mr. Chen's identity and wealth, he does not need to do these things at all.

All I can think of is that Mayike betrayed me, and he colluded with others for money. For money, she had someone kidnap Jiaqi. And just walked away.

That's the answer I can think of.

However, I still don't want to believe that the girl who is quiet and virtuous, gentle and kind, serious in her work, and even helps me a lot, and has always had a good relationship with me, has such an insidious side.

Thinking back to Ma Yike's shoulder-length black hair, plain pink shirt, and white apron, I couldn't connect her with the hideous kidnapper.

It's not a question of whether you dare to believe it, it's a question of whether you can imagine it.

"Xiaodong, let me ask you, do you usually ...... Have you ever befriended anyone? Do you usually have any enemies?"

"Mr. Chen, I've thought about enemies or something. I don't think so...... Belch...... Even if there were, I don't think anyone could do it. ”

"Who?"

"Money Manager. ”

I replied with some uncertainty. I don't know why this person popped into my head out of nowhere. I know that it is definitely not a good habit to casually suspect a person without evidence, but at that moment I still thought of Qian Yikang. Come to think of it, I'm afraid he is the only person who has the worst relationship with me. I'm a relatively low-key person, and I don't usually deal with many people in life, so even if I have a relationship, it's not bad, so I can't do this kind of thing. Only General Manager Qian has the worst relationship with me in the company, there have been verbal disputes, and he has never given me a good face, Qian Yikang himself is not good-behaved, it is said that he mixed ** when he was young, so if all this is really done by him, I am afraid it can be said.

Hearing my speculation, Mr. Chen didn't say anything for a long time, maybe my answer surprised him a little. I don't know what Mr. Chen thinks, but after waiting for a long time, Mr. Chen only answered me with one sentence:

"It's also possible. Xiaodong, I know that your relationship with Qian Yikang has never been good...... If you say that, I think you should keep an eye on him these days. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Hearing Mr. Chen's words, I didn't answer anything. Regarding the relationship between me and General Manager Qian, I am afraid that no one forced Mr. Chen to understand better, when I had a stalemate with General Manager Qian and wanted to leave Sanxin Company, it was Mr. Chen who left me.

"But, Xiaodong, in fact, I want to say that after listening to your opinion on Qian Yikang, I actually have a point about who did this. ”

"Huh? Mr. Chen...... Did you mean that Manager Qian did it?"

"I think this matter must be inseparable from him, but in addition to Qian Yikang, you may have forgotten someone, that person you not only know, but that person also knows your relationship with Jiaqi. ”

Mr. Chen...... Do you know Ma Yike?" When I heard Mr. Chen's words, my first reaction was that Mr. Chen knew Ma Yike, so I naturally blurted out these words.

In my guess, Ma Yike and General Manager Qian are the most likely two people. It's the two people I think of the most. One knew me and Jiaqi well and knew everything about me, while the other had a very bad relationship with me, was hostile, and could do anything under certain circumstances.

But Mr. Chen's answer surprised me even more.

"I don't know, who is she? I'm not talking about her. Mr. Chen replied lightly, his voice lowered.

"Who do you want to say? Mr. Chen, are you really sure that someone did it on purpose...... Kidnapping Jiaqi?"

"I'm just guessing, but I can't be wrong. I think that man, I guess isβ€”"

Mr. Chen's words contained uncertainty, but at the moment when my heart was about to jump to my throat, Mr. Chen still said the name of the person he had guessed.

It was someone I never expected, but when I think about it later, it makes so much sense.

As Mr. Chen said, that person really knows a lot about my relationship with Jiaqi, and it can even be said that apart from Mr. Chen, that person knows my family background best.

The day after I finished the phone call with Mr. Chen, I went to the Bank of China with my ID card and bank card.

To withdraw large amounts of cash, you must make an appointment one day in advance to allow the bank enough time to prepare.

When the automatic door of the Bank of China opened to me, I walked in quickly, and at that time, I had already made my final decision.

Going to the bank to withdraw a huge amount of cash is really not a very simple task, and it takes a long time just to go through the formalities and proofs.

Before that, my highest withdrawal record was a one-time withdrawal of 700,000 yuan, and the rest of the funds were paid by transfer, which was not considered a withdrawal. That time was to support Sanxin Company to buy a drug separator. But this time, for the sake of Jiaqi, and perhaps the missing Ma Yike, I have to withdraw up to 2 million in cash.

Since the amount of cash I withdrew was indeed not small, and the bank could not pay me in one lump sum, I had to complete the process one day and come back to collect the cash the next day.

It was only a day, and it wasn't a problem for me, because the kidnapper had given me a week.

But if possible, I'd rather get the money sooner and redeem Jiaqi.

A week is too long, who knows what will happen to Jiaqi in one week. Jiaqi is still young, and she encountered such a thing at a young age, if she leaves any shadow in her heart when she grows up, it will really be enough to make me heartbroken.

On the day I went to the bank to go through the procedures, I also went to Sanxin Company. But what disappointed me was that Mr. Chen was not in the company, and I couldn't meet him, but I saw Qian Yikang accusing several employees in the workshop in a commanding manner, and when he saw me, his gaze only stayed on my face for an extra second, and then he turned his head and walked away as if he saw a beggar on the side of the road.

Qian Yikang has always been the object of my suspicion, not only because I don't like him and each other, but also because I clearly remember that when I first came to the company as an intern, General Manager Qian met Jiaqi, although it was only a short side, but speaking of which, he was also one of the people who had a relationship with Jiaqi and me.

Seeing that General Manager Qian still appeared in Sanxin Company, I was also a little surprised. I don't know what he thinks, or if he did anything to Jiaqi.

Because I can't possibly ask him. If it was really him, then if I asked him like this, I'm afraid Jiaqi would really be in danger. And if it weren't for him, I would have asked him these inexplicable questions, which would have only made my relationship with him more strained.

So in the end, I didn't see Mr. Chen, so I chose to leave Sanxin Company in a hurry and returned home.

The home is still the same home. The furnishings of the house have not changed, and the messy hall has been cleaned back to its former appearance, and everything looks like it was before.

But without the elf's cheerful Jiaqi, without the gentle and quiet Ma Yike, and without the silly Xiaobai, this home is like an empty tomb, gloomy and lifeless.

I am the only one who lives in this quiet tomb.

It's like a lonely ghost wandering in an uninhabited castle, wandering for millennia.

Xiaobai was buried in the backyard of the villa by me, and I set up a small tombstone for it. This cute little white dog left the world after staying in my house for less than two years.

Sitting on the sofa in the gloomy hall, I often recall the scene on a sunny day, when I held Jiaqi's little hand and Ma Yike led the lively little white to walk slowly on the green lawn of the park.

It's so far away to think about.

Those days are now gone.

I stayed home all afternoon, expecting Jiaqi or Ma Ke to come home suddenly.

I sat on the left side of the couch, staring several times in the direction of the villa door, expecting a familiar figure to jump into my eyes.

By sunset, I gave up.

I made two more calls to the housekeeping company, but the answer was that it was on the phone, and finally I lost my patience and never wanted to call the housekeeping company again.

If the housekeeping company had news of Ma Yike, I'm afraid it would have notified me a long time ago, and if there was no answer, it was already an answer.

I re-dialed the kidnapper's caller number a few more times, but it didn't get through.

At the end of the day, I didn't expect anything anymore.

What can I do?

In addition to etc.

Wait for the kidnapper's call threat.

Wait for Mr. Chen's news that the results are unpredictable.

Waiting for Ma Yi's casual response.

Maybe I won't be able to wait for anything.

In the evening, there was news from Jiaqi.

It was a phone call, and the phone number was still like nothing I'd ever seen before. When I picked up the phone, there were no cold words from the kidnappers, only Jiaqi's intermittent cry.

"Papa, come on, woo woo woo me......" I clearly heard Jiaqi's cry, and at that moment I almost broke my heart and lungs, and my liver and intestines were broken.

But no matter how much I shouted, there was no response on the other end of the phone.

Jiaqi's crying lasted for a full twenty seconds, and finally the kidnapper's voice came from the other end of the phone:

"Six days. Don't get tricks. You know the results. ”

The words were very short and concise, and before I could even say a word, the other party decisively hung up the phone.

When I came back to my senses and hurriedly called back, there was a blind tone on the phone, and I couldn't get through anymore.
