CHAPTER 231
Bai Renxiang's phone rang out from her purse. Immediately she took the phone out of her purse, a loud screeching sound was heard and the car jerked forcefully, throwing the two people in the car off balance.
"What was that Jun?" She asked as she pushed her hair that fell over her face backwards.
"It is a car. I did not see it early. I am sorry young miss," he apologised.
But as soon as that apology, l was made, another shocking thing happened. A truck from nowhere came into view.
Before driver Jun and Bai Renxiang could register what was happening, their car was hit harshly. Driver Jun tries to keep the car on the road but the person or rather people who hit the car were not done.
The car was hit again.
SCREECH
"Aaahhh!!!"
BANG
Their car was toppled over and landed beside a dense bush beside the road. The windows were shattered and the two victims inside the car had almost lost their consciousness.
Amid all the noise, Bai Renxiang's phone continued to ring. Even after the accident it still rang. The caller was persistent.

CRACK
A black boot stepped on it with full force, silencing the phone in the process.
"What were you trying to do? Do you think you can get help? Well think again," a deep voice rang in Bai Renxiang and driver Jun's ears.
"There is no time to waste. Get the lady and let us be on the move," another person spoke.
"What about the driver?" Another asked as he looked at driver Jun who seemed to be holding on to a thin thread of survival.
His breathing was low. If one were to see him, they would think he was dead. But on a closer look, he was not.
Driver Jun's face was bloodied and his hands were cut by glass shards. His eyes could not even open.
"He will not make it. Just leave him there, we do not need him anyway."
"Alright. Good night, lady," was all Bai Renxiang heard before her nose was covered by a white handkerchief and she passed out.
The man carried her body and they left as quickly as they came and attacked.
'Young miss, I am sorry I could not save you. Please forgive me,' driver Jun said in his head before he, himself lost his consciousness.
Meanwhile, Li Fengjin was staring at his I've in confusion. He wanted to talk to Bai Renxiang but it turns out that she was not answering her phone.
"Maybe she is in a meeting," he said to assure himself.
Ever since their discussion last night, Li Fengjin found it difficult to close his eyes. He barely slept till this morning as he kept thinking of her words.
"There is no need for me to lie since we are adults. But can you... can you give me some time to think about it?"
"Sigh. I do not think that my heart that wait much longer as I said, Bai Renxiang," he said as he relaxed back on his chair and gazed out his floor to ceiling window.

Ring! Ring!!
"What, Fang? Do not call me if you do not have any good news," Bai Ming wanted.
"Oh! I have good news for you, Ms Bai. Do you not care anymore? Okay, then I should just hang up now," Fang said.
"Wait!" She quickly called before he hung up on her. "What are you talking about? Do you have good news?" She asked.
"Yes, Ms Bai. I do have good news for you," he answered.
"Then, what is it? Tell me. I am running out of patience," Bai Ming ordered.
"Sigh. We have got your stepsister, Bai Renxiang," he informed her.
"Really? Are you telling the truth?" She said as she abruptly stood up from her chair.
"What reason do I have to lie, Ms Bai? Anyways, that is not why I called," he said.
"Huh? If not to tell me the good news, why did you call?" Bai Ming asked.

"Yes, I am."
"Do you not think that you are forgetting something, Ms Bai?"
"What am I forgetting? Your payment?" Bai Ming asked with raised brows.
"That is one of them."
Quit being so mysterious and tell me what it is that you think that I forgetting," she yelled.
"Sigh. I want what you took from me," his voice came out stern and a little bit of anger in it.
"Oh! Hahaha. So that is what it is? But you are not yet done with what I asked," Bai Ming said.
"Point of correction, I am. You told me to kidnap her, period. I have had those men do so. It is time for you to jeep the end of your bargain," he explained.
"Oh! So they are 'those' men now?" She said sarcastically.
"You and I both know that you hired those guys to act according to the orders you gave me to give them," he replied her with the same tone.
'Scoff. You want to act smart? Well, two can play this game, Ms Bai,' he said to himself.
"Whatever. My orders are not done yet. So do not ask me again."
"No can do, Missy. You said kidnap the lady and I will release your pet dog. That was what we discussed when we first met. So it is either you send my dog to me or I tell those men to release your sister and leave you," he threatened.
"What is your problem? It is just a dog anyway. Why as you so angry about it. Jeez."
"Just jeep your words."
"Alright fine. Do not send them away. I will send you your pet," she obliged.
"Okay. From now on, your men are yours to order around. I will give you the leader's contact information when I see my dog in good health. Goodbye, Ms Bai."
