bell bell bell...

Half an hour later, the phone rang on time, making the phone on the desk once again the focus of everyone's attention.

Lan En answered the phone with a calm face, "I'm Lan Cook."

"Earl Cook, ask your wife to go to Room 1708 of the Altaïr Hotel in City W in two days. Remember, let her go alone. If there is one more person, we will kill that cute little girl." The man at the end didn't talk nonsense at all, and said directly.

Lan En listened in silence, and when the other party finished speaking, his deep eyes fell on his lover nervously in front of him, a dark light flashed in his eyes, and he said, "Are you the one who can make the decision?"

The other party obviously didn't expect Lan En to ask such a question. The phone was silent for a few seconds before the synthesized man's voice came again, "Of course." The time is four o'clock in the afternoon, if you exceed it, you will bear the consequences."

"Wait!" Lan En knew that the other party was going to hang up the phone, so he hurriedly said, without waiting for the other party's response, he said directly: "Since you can make the decision, then I ask to change the candidate, and let me replace my wife to exchange hostages. Since you Knowing my identity, you should understand that having me as a hostage is more valuable than my wife."

"Honey, you..." Ruan Xin's eyes widened slightly after hearing Lan En's words, and she looked at her in surprise, but just as she spoke, she was stopped by Lan En's eyes.

Not only Ruan Xin was surprised, but Nan Jun and the others beside him were also shocked.

Who is Lane Cook?He is the earl of country Y, the ruler of Cook's business empire, with incalculable wealth and inestimable status, and has countless privileges in many countries. Even the queen of country Y treats him with three-point courtesy. How can it not be surprising to be a hostage?

As if he didn't see the shocked eyes of Nan Jun and others, Lan En continued: "I know your ultimate goal, since you all want me to pay something? You don't need to involve other people, I will be your hostage , then the conditions are up to you, how about it?"

The phone didn't hang up, but remained silent, as if thinking about Lan En's words. After about a minute, a voice rang from the other end of the phone, "My lord, there are too many people around you, I can't believe you."

Lan En knew that the other party was moved by his proposal, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly imperceptibly, and continued: "Do you think that with my wife's current situation, there will be fewer people around her than me? Don't worry, since I proposed If you want to exchange hostages, of course you will go alone according to the conditions you put forward, and you will never bring anyone with you."

There was another silence on the phone, and after a while, he said, "Your Earl, you'd better do what you say, otherwise..." Before he finished speaking, the threat was clearly revealed.

"My wife's cousin is still in your hands. I will never make fun of her life. How about it? Promise?" Lan En took the other party's words calmly, and held Ruan Xin's hand with the other hand, gently He squeezed lightly, comforting her silently.

Ruan Xin knew that he would propose to exchange hostages for her own sake. She was moved but also worried. Compared with being in danger, she was more afraid of his accident. The hand holding his hand unconsciously exerted force, and the other hand also Unconsciously covering her stomach, she looked at him nervously.

"Deal! At the same time and place, I will wait for the earl on time." The other party agreed after a few seconds of silence, and then the phone was hung up.

Seeing Lan En put down the phone, Ruan Xin immediately asked, "Husband, what did the other party say? How could you..."

"Don't worry, kitty, I have my own plan, and nothing will happen." Lan En interrupted her gently before she finished speaking, patted her on the back comfortingly, and said to Nan Jun: "Nan Jun Boss, could you please accompany me on a trip to City W?"

Nan Jun nodded without hesitation, "Yes!" He didn't ask Lan En what he asked him to do?He believed that Lan En's decision must have been considered.

"Thank you!" Lan En thanked, then looked down at the frowning kitten in front of him with a worried face, smiled slightly, raised his head and said: "I will arrange for the three of you to go to the hotel to rest, the rest of the matter Just leave it to me." After speaking, he called the secretary, "Tina, come in."

"Good president!"

One minute later, Tina knocked on the door of the president's room, entered and asked respectfully, "President, what do you need?"

"Send someone to send Mr. Nan and the others to the hotel to rest." Lan En finished speaking to Tina, and added, "All treatment will be done according to my standards."

"Okay President!" Tina responded, looked at Nan Jun's family of three and said, "You three, please follow me."

Lin Yue's expression changed when Lan En took the initiative to take the hostage. Why did he take the initiative to take the hostage?She knew very well in her heart that she looked at Ruan Xin with unconcealable jealousy at that moment, what kind of magical power does Ruan Xin have?To let this man do this for her, even at the risk of his life!

After taking several deep breaths, he suppressed the jealousy that was about to overflow in his heart, and when he followed Tina away, he took a deep look at Lan En.

After Nanjun's family of three left, Ruan Xin said anxiously: "Husband, how can you propose to be a hostage? If something happens to you, what do you want me and the babies to do?"

Lan En turned the chair around, squatted in front of Ruan Xin, held her hands, and said softly: "Little cat, you are more important than anyone and anything to me, and I will never let you go Adventurous, kitty, promise me, no matter for me or for them, stay here and don’t go anywhere.” While speaking, his hand kept gently stroking Ruan Xin’s belly.

Ruan Xin glanced down at her tall belly, then looked up at him, unable to hide her worry, "Honey, you will come back safely, right?" She knew that Lan En would never change her mind, so she also He didn't say anything like telling him not to go, but just looked at him pleadingly.

"Of course, of course I will come back safely, kitten, and the babies are waiting for me at home." Lan En stood up and solemnly pressed a kiss on her forehead, and then said softly: "Let's go! Go back and rest."

Ruan Xin looked at his gentle look, opened her mouth and finally said nothing, got up and followed him out of the office.

The two returned to their residence in L City, and after they settled Ruan Xin, Lan En immediately went to the study and called the legal counsel, "Hill, do something for me." clean.

……

After the two talked for about ten minutes, Hill Rhodes on the other end of the phone asked solemnly, "Lan, are you sure you want to do this?"

"I'm sure!" Lan En replied without hesitation, with an inexplicable smile on his handsome face.

Hill on the other end of the phone was silent for a while, and then said: "Okay! Since it is your decision, I have no right to interfere, but it is a bit difficult to finish it within two days."

Of course, Lan En knew it was not easy, so he let out a sigh of relief and said, "I know, so thank you for your hard work. Do it as quickly as possible. I need to finish it within two days."

"I try my best!"

"Okay, thank you Hill." Lan En thanked him and hung up the phone. He stood quietly in front of the window for a few minutes before turning around and leaving the study. As soon as he walked out of the study, he saw Ruan Xin walking towards him. Hurry up Going up to support her, "Why don't you rest?"

Ruan Xin shook her head, "I'm not tired, have you made arrangements?" How could she be able to sleep at this time?

Lan En also knew that it was impossible for her to rest, so he sighed secretly in his heart, lowered his head and kissed the corner of her lips, and said softly: "Since you don't want to rest, then go for a walk, I will accompany you."

"Okay!" Ruan Xin nodded, thinking that it would be better if she went out for a walk, so that she would be restless when she calmed down. Going for a walk might relieve her tense emotions.

Lan En caressed her down the stairs, walked out of the villa to the garden, and said softly, "The roses in the rose garden are already in full bloom, do you want to see them?"

Ruan Xin nodded silently, she was in no mood to do anything now.

Looking at the silent kitten, Lan En couldn't help sighing, thinking of the culprit that caused her current state, a cold light flashed in her eyes.

On the other side, Lin Yue followed the people arranged by Tina to the presidential suite of Lanxi Hotel, and as soon as she entered the room, she said to Nan Jun and Nan's mother: "Brother Mommy, I'm a little tired, I'm going to rest first. "

When she heard that her daughter was tired, Nan's mother nodded quickly, "Go and rest, Xiaoshu, if you feel uncomfortable, you must tell Mommy, you know?"

"Well, I know Mommy, so I'll go back to my room first." Lin Yue smiled obediently at Nan Jun and Nan's mother, then turned and walked into one of the bedrooms. As soon as she entered the bedroom, the smile on her face immediately After disappearing, he took out his mobile phone and went to the balcony, dialed Jerry Cook's number, and when the other party picked it up, he immediately said, "Why did you agree?" His tone was full of questioning.

Lin Yue's rambling words, but Jerry Cook on the other end of the phone understood, changed his posture casually, waved the red wine glass in his hand, and asked with a smile: "Why do I disagree?"

"..." Lin Yue was choked by Jerry's rhetorical question. She didn't know how to answer for a while, so she could only grit her teeth secretly. After a while, she took a deep breath to ease her emotions, and said coldly: "What are you going to do?" Do?"

"Are you asking me what I will do after Lan En comes to be a hostage?" Jerry took a sip of red wine in a good mood, asked the question knowingly, stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, thinking that he would have everything in two days, so he wanted to be with him. The whole world shared his good mood at this time, so he didn't care about Lin Yue's cold tone.

...Since you know it, why bother to ask? "Lin Yue could feel Jerry Cook's good mood through the phone, but as long as she thought that Lan En would risk herself for that woman, she couldn't be happy at all. Not only was she unhappy, but the jealousy in her heart was even worse. To drive her crazy, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath, then calmed down, opened her eyes and said, "Answer my question, if you don't tell me the next plan, how can I help you?" ? "
