Chapter 329: Brother Call
For a long time, Taylor has been at home to help Charles take care of big and small things, so Taylor knows Charles's temperament best, and he can clearly feel Charles's dissatisfaction.
So Taylor immediately explained: "Father, you misunderstood, I have had a good relationship with my brother since I was a child, how can I turn a blind eye to him now that he is being kidnapped?" ”
"Then why don't you go and change him back?" Charles's tone was still calm, but there was a clear questioning between the lines.
"Kidnappers are scheming, we have to get to the bottom of the matter, we can't just give up the building so easily, right? But if I had to trade the building for Eli at that time, I would have agreed without blinking an eye. Taylor swore as he spoke, and there was not the slightest hint of falsehood in his tone.
Although Charles understood that what Taylor said had some truth, he still felt indignant in his heart, and only left one sentence: "Anyway, no matter what method you use, you must save your brother, otherwise I can't spare you!" ”
After speaking, Charles flicked his sleeves and left directly.
It wasn't until after Charles left that Taylor punched the copywriter next to him, and the copywriter made a loud noise that drowned out the cursing in his mouth at the moment.
After the resentment in his heart was vented, Taylor sat down on the sofa, his calm face expressionless, no one knew what he was thinking at the moment.
"Honey, what's wrong with you?" I don't know when Selena walked in. Her hand gently touched Taylor's brow, her eyes full of concern.
"Eli was kidnapped, and he said he was going to exchange the city for it." This news is not a secret, and Taylor told Selena without concealing it.
"And what is your father's attitude?" Like you, who knows that the Will family is still in charge of Charles, you need to listen to his opinion first.
"My father said that he wanted me to exchange the castle for Eli, but I feel that this matter is not so simple, if we agree to the exchange, it is possible that we have fallen into someone else's conspiracy, and it is ......"
At this point, Taylor stopped, and then blurted out the words, just looking at Selena with a calm face.
Selena understood Taylor's thoughts, so she spoke very understandingly: "My identity is too special, I won't give you too many opinions, but I hope you can put your own interests first, after all, we will be a family in the future, and I will not harm you." ”
At this moment, Zai's smile was gentle, and the tone of his speech was so soft, with an indescribable charm.
However, Taylor is also a battle-hardened person, and he only hugged Selena tenderly and said some inconsequential words of concern, but as for Eli, he kept silent.
On the other side, Lu Ling and Eli were locked in a dimly lit tin hut, looking at Eli who was still unconscious, and the occasional noise outside the house only made her feel more irritable.
However, because the tin hut was not soundproof, Lu Ling could clearly hear the conversation between the people guarding them outside.
It was also those voices that calmed Lu Ling's mood for a moment, she looked around and found that there was a vent in this hut.
Lu Ling used brute force to break free of the rope tied to her hand, and then jumped close to the entrance to inspect the situation outside.
"The boss is really a good skill, this vote will definitely make us a lot of money, and our brothers can have a good time again!" I saw a man with sunglasses on his head happily opening his mouth, with one foot still on the stool they were sitting on, looking arrogant.
"Hehe, the boss is the boss, and he has never let us down, but I heard that the people of the Will family are unwilling to exchange the city for this little master!" A very obscene three-eyed replied at this time, his face full of regret.
"Humph! If they don't change it, then chop off a finger of that little young master! Just as the man in sunglasses spoke, a saber was plunged directly into the table in front of him.
The saber pierced the table directly, leaving only one handle outside, which shows that this man is also a ruthless person.
After looking at it for a while, Lu Ling also understood their current situation.
She hurriedly jumped down and walked next to Eli, shaking Eli's body: "Wake up." ”
Probably because the effect of the medicine was too great, even if he was shaken by Lu Ling, Eli was still motionless, and in desperation, Lu Ling pinched Eli's arm directly.
"Ah......h
Fortunately, Lu Ling was prepared, covered his mouth, and reminded softly: "Don't make a sound, it's not good if they find out for a while." ”
It was just a moment of confusion, and soon Eli reacted and nodded at Lu Ling.
It wasn't until it was confirmed that Eli's eyes had regained clarity that Lu Ling let Eli go and told him everything that had happened since they were kidnapped.
"My brother, is he really unwilling to change me out?" Although Eli and Taylor were a little estranged during this time, he was still a little sad when he learned the news.
"What does it matter if he saves you or not? It's a big deal, we'll just get out on our own! Lu Ling opened her mouth without thinking.
"But ......"
Just as Eli was about to say something, there was a burst of footsteps outside the tin house, followed by the sound of the door opening.
Lu Ling and Eli knew that someone was coming, and the two of them immediately put the rope on themselves again, making it look like they were being bound.
Waiting for those people to enter the door, Lu Ling put away her previous calm appearance and tried to squeeze out a few tears: "Big brothers, can you let me go?" I want to go home, I'm scared. ”
Lu Ling was born beautiful, and at this time, there were a few tears on her face, and she looked even more pitiful.
But where can these outlaws be so easy to speak, one of them lifted Lu Ling's chin and whispered to Lu Ling's face: "Do you want to go out?" Then beg the rich man next to you, let him redeem people in his house, so that you can go out. ”
"You don't have to work in vain, I'm just an inconsequential person in the Will family, they won't trade the city for me." Eli smiled a little self-deprecatingly, his eyes dead silent, and he really looked like an abandoned child.
Looking at Eli like this, Pete wondered if what he said had credibility, after all, when he said that he wanted to exchange cities, Taylor really didn't agree.
Just when he was confused, his mobile phone rang. Looking at the caller ID, Pete pursed his lips in satisfaction, raised an eyebrow at Eli, and then connected the phone.
"I thought about it, if you want me to exchange the city for my brother, you must let me talk to him, otherwise how do I know if you have randomly found someone similar to him to impostor?" Taylor on the other end of the line spoke slowly, with a cold air in his tone.
"Okay, I'll let you have a video chat with him." Taylor's request had already been thought of by Pete, so he agreed without thinking about it.
Soon the two connected to the video call, because Eli's face was a little pale when he was anesthetized before, and he smiled weakly at Taylor: "Brother." ”
Just a simple title contains too many emotions and conveys a lot of information.
What is the brother, Taylor looked very worried when he saw Eli like this, and yelled at Pete on the side: "Why does my brother look so weak, you must take care of her, otherwise don't think about me exchanging anything with you, beware of provoking the fire, we will directly serve your nest." ”
"Heh, are you still so hateful when you talk at this time? When the time comes, let's see who threatens whom, and don't forget that your brother is still in my hands. As he spoke, the dagger in his holster pressed directly against Eli's neck, and his eyebrows were cold, and the dagger in his hand flashed with a faint cold light.
"You ......" Taylor, who was already very strong, was suddenly speechless by Pete's threat, and immediately spoke: "Don't hurt him, I'll exchange with you, you can think about the location of the exchange, and we will definitely prepare everything you want at that time, but I still want to say a few words to my brother." ”
"As long as you are willing to agree to my conditions, isn't it just a matter of saying a few words? No problem at all. Pete smiled, waved his hand, and made a very generous appearance.
After that, the right to talk was given to the Eli brothers. However, the two of them only said some words of mutual concern and ended the call.
Seeing that Taylor and Eli had closed the line, Pete didn't want to stay long, just left a sentence: "You stay honest for me!" Then he slammed the door and left.
In the small room, only Lu Ling and Eli were left again, and the room was very quiet at this moment, so quiet that Lu Ling could clearly hear Eli's sigh.
"What do you sigh for? Didn't Taylor say that he was going to exchange the city? And he seemed to care about you very much just now, which shows that brotherly affection is still very important in his eyes. Hearing Eli's sigh, Lu Ling hurriedly spoke to comfort her.
"What he just said was just to stabilize Pete, and in the course of the conversation, he had already told us in code words to let us find a way to escape ourselves, and I don't think he would care about us." When he said this, Eli's tone was tinged with a hint of sorrow.
Lu Ling didn't notice the secret words that Eli said just now, and when he heard him say this, Lu Ling felt a little sympathetic to Eli, after all, a mother and a brother who are related by blood, always think of the interests of the family when encountering things, and that feeling must be uncomfortable for Eli.
Although Lu Ling's kung fu is very good, she is very slow about emotional things, and she doesn't know how to comfort Eli when she sees him like this, so she just quietly accompanies Eli and waits for him to adjust his emotions.
"And what do you think?" It was a long time before Lu Ling asked Eli.
