There was a complicated look in her eyes. She hadn’t seen him for a long time, but he hadn’t changed much.
Shang Jinshen turned the suitcase around and opened it, revealing a new stack of money. Then, he said to Zheng Wei, “Here’s all the money. Let her go.”
There was a flash of greed and desire in his eyes, and then he smiled with satisfaction. He looked at Imp, who was clenching his teeth without saying a word. What an annoying reaction. Compared with this kind of silence, he preferred to watch the merchants collapse.
He laughed sinisterly and said in a strange voice, “Shang Jinshen, do you think this is enough to get your son back? Haha, how can it be so cheap?”
“If it weren’t for you, how could I have lived like a beggar in the past few years? It’s all because of you!” Guan Wei’s eyes were full of resentment, so he grabbed Yan Feng even harder. Yan Feng suddenly frowned and cried out in pain. Ji Yan, who was in the car, immediately clenched her hand when she saw this scene, and her entire forehead began to sweat.
Shang Jinshen had no expression on his face. Only those who knew him well could see the anger in his eyes. Yes, Shang Jinshen was angry.
“Tell me, what else do you want?” He said lightly, as if he didn’t care about anything, but because of Yan Feng, he was talking nonsense with the official authority.
The official roared with laughter. It was so cool. He finally had a day to order Shang Jinshen. He should think about how to torture him so that he could vent his anger.
“Then kneel down first and let me have a good look at the expression on the great face of our Ji Gui president. I have never seen our Ji Gui president who can yield but can do whatever he wants.” His tone was full of sarcasm.
Hearing this, Yan Feng was even more stunned. He stared at Shang Jinshen. He was still young, but he knew how humiliating it was for a man to kneel down.
Even Ji Yan, who had been listening in the car, couldn’t help changing her face, but he was indifferent, as if the person who was about to kneel was not him.
She knew how proud Shang Jinshen was. How could he kneel down? Ji Yan’s hands were so clenched that they were turning white. She couldn’t bet. If Shang Jinshen fell out with her, what should she do with Yan Feng?
Ji Yan gritted her teeth and jumped out of the car. Everyone looked at her in an instant.
Ji Yan took a deep breath and said lightly to Zheng Wei, “Zheng Wei, you have my son in your hand, not his son at all. I’m afraid you have made a mistake, haven’t you?”
Hearing that, the look on Shang Jinshen’s face changed a few times, and his deep eyes were fixed on her.
Ji Yan raised the corners of her mouth, but she didn’t smile and continued to say, “Besides, my son has a heart attack. Be careful. If he has an accident, you won’t even have a hostage, and your fate will be…”
“Are you threatening me?” The official authority suddenly said to Ji Yan fiercely.
“It’s true that I’m threatening you, official authority. I’ll replace him, and I’ll be your hostage. I guarantee that you’ll still be able to take the money and leave this place. Or do you want to threaten a child who can get sick at any time? At that time, he won’t be your shield but a burden.”
“Heart attack?” Ji Yan’s words scared him so much that he began to weigh the value of the hostage, which made Shang Jinshen frown.
“That little guy is so smart. How could he have a heart attack? How could she say these words so calmly?”
Looking at Yan Feng again, there was indeed something wrong with his pale face. His entire small face was covered in tiny beads of sweat, as if he was enduring something.
Shang Jinshen immediately understood why she had said that. If he continued to delay, it would be really dangerous if Yan Feng really got sick. So even if she had to exchange herself for it, she had to let the little guy get out of danger first.
Just as he was about to speak, Zheng Wei said with a smile, “Well, come here. I’ll trust you this time.”
Obviously, the official also noticed that something was wrong with the little guy. He didn’t dare to gamble. If the little guy died of illness, he would have no way out.
If it had been Ji Yan, it would have been fine. However, from the looks of Shang Jingshen, he seemed to care a lot about his wife.
Ji Yan’s heart relaxed, but Yan Feng frowned and said sadly, “Don’t, Mommy. Don’t trade me with you.”
She was very distressed, but it seemed that Yan Feng would not be able to hold on for long. Since he had been kidnapped for so long, he would definitely not be able to hold on. In any case, she would not let anything happen to Yan Feng even if she exchanged her for his.
She forced a smile on Yan Feng’s face and comforted him. “Baby, be good and protect yourself. Mommy will be fine too.”
She walked towards the government official with a smile. There was no danger on her body, and she was a woman, so the government official was not worried about her. So when Ji Yan approached, everyone was nervous, and his evil laughter became louder.
When they were a step away, Ji Yan looked coldly at the officer and said, “Let him go!”
Guan Wei raised his eyebrows and aimed the gun in his hand directly at Ji Yan’s head. Then he kicked, and Yan Feng was kicked several times by him.
“Mommy!” Yan Feng was so scared that he started to cry. His face was filled with tears.
Shang Jinshen’s eyes flashed as he stared at the woman’s authority. His aura had changed. It was cold and intimidating.
“Shang Jinshen, you might be able to get your son back if you kneel down just now. Now, hehe, your woman can’t be replaced by just kneeling down!” The official authority was no longer in a panic. As long as Shang Jinshen had feelings for Ji Yan, this woman would be his shield.
“Mommy, Mommy.” Seeing the black gun pointing at his mommy, Yan Feng lost his mind and wanted to rush forward to save his mommy.
Shang Jinshen immediately hugged him and said angrily, “Do you want your mommy to get you back for nothing? Leave here and I’ll protect your mommy.”
Yan Feng cried in Shang Jinshen’s arms, “You must save my mommy. You must, or I won’t let you off.”
Shang Jinshen looked up at her deeply and said firmly, “I will protect you.”
He let go of Yan Feng, who slowly walked out with tears streaming down his face. On the other side, Lan Si and An Ming looked at each other and immediately stepped forward to protect Yan Feng.
Lin Feng, on the other hand, stood there a step late. Looking at Ji Yan’s determined expression in the distance, he felt a sharp pain in his heart. He hoped that it was him who could protect her now, but he was a step late.
It was just like how he had appeared in her life. He was one step slower than Shang Jinshen, so it was difficult for him to enter her heart.
Protecting her? Haha, Ji Yan didn’t have any hope. She had nothing to do with him now. It didn’t matter whether he would protect her or not.
Now that Yan Feng was safe, she was relieved.
Ji Yan’s expression was no longer as solemn as before. Her face was calm and serene, as if she was not the one being shot. Ji Yan thought that if it had been in the past, she would have been afraid. But after experiencing so much, what she feared most was not her death, but the people around her leaving her one by one.
