Ye Xing said,"Dad, call the police."
Ye Jing shook his head,"Wait a minute. If they just want money, then give it to them. This is a premeditated kidnapping case. Our every move is under the surveillance of the other party. If we are not careful, it will lead to unpredictable consequences."
Grandpa Ye said,"They should call again. Let's see how much money they want first. If they are after money, then everything is easy to deal with."
Ye Xing stopped talking. He was just worried about Ye Lin.
As for Ye Jiao, he may have had some feelings for him, but with the appearance of Lin Xi, he became more and more aware of Ye Jiao's viciousness.
The clues he found in the investigation and the dark schemes he had not noticed before made him feel disgusted.
All day on Saturday, the kidnappers did not call again for two days except for a call in the morning asking them to prepare the ransom. They should be observing.
The kidnappers have not mentioned the specific amount of the ransom, but the amount must be considerable.
The Ye family was anxious, but they did not dare to call the police. They were waiting for the kidnappers' next move.
Lin Xi attended Jing Chen's engagement party on Saturday. Jing Chen said to Jing Xiao,"Bring Xiao Xixi to show her face. What's the point of hiding her?"
Jing Xiao had long been numb to his brother's insults. He just looked at his brother coldly and said,"Tell him yourself that it was you who invited him, not me."
Jing Chen looked at him meaningfully,"Tsk."
But he had actually sent an invitation to Lin Xi, with a message attached:"Xiao Xizi, waiting for you."
Lin·Xiao Xizi·Xi: This big brother really deserves a beating!
He was thinking in his heart that he must give him a few shots to vent his hatred when he got the chance. What is Xiao Xizi! You are Xiao Chenzi!
Then Jing Xiao is Xiao Xiaozi?
Hahaha, Lin Xi was happy.
Jing Xiao came to pick him up on Saturday. Lin Xi was afraid of the cold, so he wore a decent cotton winter coat. He was good-looking and looked very eye-catching in casual clothes.
Jing Xiao didn't want him to wear those formal clothes, because they didn't keep him warm, and he felt that Lin Xi was the kind of person who looked better the simpler the clothes she wore.
He looked at Lin Xi, took out a diamond-studded brooch from his pocket, and pinned it on Lin Xi's chest, which made him look noble, generous, and elegant, and his temperament was even better.
"Very unique? Very expensive, right?"Lin Xi was a little afraid to move. If one of the diamonds was missing, wouldn't he be able to sell it and still not be able to pay for it!
The diamonds on this brooch were dazzling and formed into the shape of a flying bird. It felt heavy when worn on the body. There was no doubt that it must be worth a lot of money.
Jing Xiao was satisfied. The diamonds set off Lin Xi's handsomeness and extraordinary temperament. Very beautiful
"It's not expensive and it suits you very well." Jing Xiao said.
Lin Xi:"Take it off, I'm nervous."
Jing Xiao couldn't help but smile:"Don't be afraid, follow me, no one dares to steal."
Hahaha, so cute, what he didn't know was that in such a celebrity-filled banquet, basically no one would do such a thing.
People with a certain status have their own pride.
Besides, who would dare to do it with Lin Xi following him.
Lin Xi turned up her nose:"You can laugh at me, anyway, I'm a country bumpkin."
Jing Xiao said calmly:"No, you are not, you are Xiao Xizi who wants to stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun."
Lin Xi: The two brothers of the Jing family are really birds of a feather.
They must always be talking about me behind my back!
The engagement party was held in the Jing family's villa. This was Lin Xi's first time to the Jing family. There were many buildings, gardens, rockery, courts, and even fountains. It was bigger than the Ye family's and built like a manor. It's winter now. If it's spring, the flowers will bloom and the grass will be green. It must be beautiful.
Evil rich people, Lin Xi complained in her heart, what can you do to make so much money?
Wake up, Lin Xi, you just look at it, money is something outside of your body, don't be assimilated by this decadence!
"What are you thinking about? His face looks like a weather forecast." Jing Xiao wondered.
Lin Xi glanced at him:"Cultivate your mind."
In fact, she was jealous.
Jing Xiao was very smart. He parked the car in the parking space and said:"The Jing family made its fortune more than a thousand years ago. During this period, they have experienced ups and downs for several generations. They have also fallen to the bottom. Until now, they have saved up so much wealth. The wealth has been accumulated from generation to generation."
Lin Xi nodded:"It is difficult for a single generation to achieve such an achievement."
Jing Xiao nodded:"Let's go and see big brother and sister Yaoyao."
Lin Xi followed Jing Xiao in and was blinded by the gorgeous banquet hall again. The banquet had not started yet and the guests had not arrived yet. Lin Xi greeted Jing Yan and Zhou Qing, and greeted Jing Chen enthusiastically:"Xiao Chenzi, congratulations, here is a gift."
The gift was a pair of cute stuffed dolls that he picked out.
Jing Chen looked particularly funny holding them in his arms.
Hahahaha.
Zhou Qing and Jing Yan laughed out loud, little Chen? This kid is quite courageous.
Jing Chen was particularly handsome that day, tall and handsome. He put the doll aside, stretched out his hand to hold Lin Xi's collar and brought her in front of him,"Little Xi, you will regret it.""
Get out!" Lin Xi covered the brooch on her chest and looked at him vigilantly,"Robbery is illegal."
Jing Chen let him go and admired,"Forget it, today is my brother's big day. I won't bother with you, boy, you wait."
Just wait, what can you do to me?
Jing Chen sneered, his eyes fell on the brooch,"Twenty million here, hold on to it well, you'll be in trouble if you lose it.""
What? Lin Xi was stunned, how much?
Jing Xiao glared at his brother,"He's talking nonsense, it's only eighteen million, it's okay, you don't have to pay for it if you lose it."
What the hell is the difference? Oh, there is a difference of two million. As expected, the gap is huge.
Lin Xi's dumbfounded look was so cute that everyone present laughed. Jing
Chen said heroically:"Let's go, I'll take you to see my wife. She is the most beautiful woman in the world."
���The banquet was joyful. Tang Yiyao's dress was beautiful and her face was rosy. She and Jing Chen were really a good match. Lin Xi was very sweet when she spoke sweetly. She made the whole Jing family happy with just a few words.
Jing Xiao looked at him like a fish in water. How could he be nervous?
After a while, the guests arrived one after another. Lin Xi wanted to be quiet and sat in a corner to eat alone. Jing Nan rushed over in a hurry,"Xiao Xi, Brother Nan is here."
The cake in Lin Xi's hand fell into the plate because of his shock. He said,"Are you busy recently?"
Jing Nan nodded,"I'm very busy. Alas, I'm starving. I'll eat a few bites first."
After a while, Zhong Yuxiu, Zhang Xuan and Chen Nian also came over,"Xiao Xi, long time no see."
Lin Xi greeted them politely one by one. Everyone sat down and ate the food together. After Jing Xiao greeted the guests, he drove Jing Nan aside and sat next to Lin Xi, drinking tea and eating some snacks.
Many people secretly looked over here, and saw a new face. So they speculated who this boy was. He had such a good temperament, and the diamond brooch on his chest was really big and bright.
It was obtained by the Jing family at an auction, and it was worth a fortune. Seeing how close Jing Xiao was to him, it seemed that they had a very good relationship.
So, those who wanted to talk were eager to try, but they were all stopped by Jing Nan. What was there to talk about during a meal? This was not the Vanity Fair.
However, Lin Xi still greeted people she knew, Zhong Qiming and Zhou Changsheng.
In addition, there was Jing Xiao's uncle Jing Sui, an upright soldier with a rank of major general, and Jing Nan's father. It was hard to imagine that these two people with completely different personalities were actually father and son.
After a while, there was a commotion in the crowd, and Jing Xiao's pupils shrank. It was Yin Qiu, why was he here?
He blocked Lin Xi with his body, and his intuition told him that he must not let Yin Qiu notice Lin Xi!
