Chapter 529 Father-Daughter Coordination
"Dad, I have to go save Little Skinny Pole," Zhouzhou said urgently.
"No!" Ye Lingfeng refused without hesitation, his tone exceedingly stern. "Zhouzhou, listen to me. Jiao Yong is no ordinary criminal; he's the most cunning of them all. That place must be full of traps by now. It will be extremely dangerous for you."
"I'll go. Don't worry. I will bring Huo Ji'an back safely."
He raised his voice, "Qin Lie, keep an eye on Zhouzhou."
Before Zhouzhou could cover her smartwatch, her voice had already reached Qin Lie's ears.
Having heard everything, he turned to Zhouzhou and said, "Listen."
"But Little Skinny Pole..."
"I will bring him back unharmed," Ye Lingfeng declared firmly.
Zhouzhou thought for a moment, then nodded, yet couldn't help but remind him, "Dad, you must be careful too."
"Mm." Ye Lingfeng's gaze softened, "Don't worry. I haven't yet become your favorite dad. Nothing will happen."
With that, he hung up the phone.
Seeing the already subdued criminals, his eyes turned cold.
Anyone who dared to target Zhouzhou was courting death!
On the plane, Zhouzhou sat cross-legged on her seat, her chubby cheeks resting on her hands, her small plump fingers calculating, brows furrowed tightly.
The situation looked bleak.
She turned to Qin Lie and said, "Dad, can we go near Little Skinny Pole? I promise I won't go close. I just want to wait for Sharp Tongue Daddy."
The signs were ominous, and she feared something might happen.
Understanding her concern, knowing it was impossible to take her away, Qin Lie nodded.
He looked down at the map in his hands and quickly pinpointed the best landing spot.
Soon, the plane landed. Qin Lie carried Zhouzhou near where Huo Ji'an was held.
Seeing an abandoned building not far away, with a small window on the second floor that overlooked Huo Ji'an's location without being noticed, he knew it was an ideal place to hide.
Holding Zhouzhou, he walked briskly towards the building.
Zhouzhou stayed quietly in his arms, understanding the gravity of the situation, without making a fuss.
Once they were upstairs, she pulled out binoculars from her bag and quickly surveyed the scene inside.@@@@
There weren't many people, only four, but each exuded a murderous aura, clearly hardened criminals.
Jiao Yong signaled his lackey to retrieve the gun.
"Step back. I need your car."
Ye Lingfeng didn't move. "Give me my son first."
"You are in no position to negotiate," Jiao Yong tightened his grip, causing Huo Ji'an to cough, his face turning blue from suffocation.
Seeing this, Ye Lingfeng appeared frightened, his expression tensing. "Take the car."
He stepped back a few paces.
The lackey immediately climbed into the front seat, starting the car. Jiao Yong, still holding Huo Ji'an, moved towards the vehicle, relieved by Ye Lingfeng's lack of action.
A sinister glint flashed in his eyes. As he reached the car, he suddenly tossed Huo Ji'an towards Ye Lingfeng.
"You want him? Take him!"
With that, he threw Huo Ji'an out.
Ye Lingfeng rushed to catch Huo Ji'an, but the feel of him made him pause.
Huo Ji'an coughed, gasping, "Uncle Ye, you need to leave. I have explosives on me!"
He lifted his shirt, revealing a belt of explosives around his waist.
Ye Lingfeng looked up at Jiao Yong.
The car was already moving away, Jiao Yong's hand emerging from the window, holding a remote. "Ye Lingfeng, pay for my brothers' lives with yours!"
He pressed the button.
At that moment, Ye Lingfeng made a sharp gesture.
A stone whizzed through the air, embedding itself in Jiao Yong's wrist with a "thud."
Jiao Yong screamed in pain, instinctively dropping the remote.
Seeing the situation deteriorate, the lackey quickly fired at Ye Lingfeng.
But Ye Lingfeng was faster. Drawing another gun from his waist, within seconds, each of the criminals had a bullet in their wrists. The car veered out of control, crashing into a tree.
Zhouzhou saw it all, triumphantly placing her hands on her hips.
She had done missions with her dad before; their teamwork was impeccable!
Qin Lie also breathed a sigh of relief, but the next moment, seeing the storm clouds gathering above Zhouzhou, his pupils constricted.
"Zhouzhou!"
