My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Seeing that Rong Nanfeng had brought Rong Weiwei with him to find her, it was clear who had come up with this ‘brilliant idea’!

Rong Nanfeng’s eyebrows were tightly knitted as he faced Rong Yan’s interrogation, the temples of his forehead throbbing. He was reluctant to answer the question, “Does it matter who came up with the solution? What matters is that your brother is currently running a high fever. I’m not refusing to pay the remaining ransom to get him back, I’m just asking you for a favor, to use that child to exchange for Mu first. Rather than concern yourself with your brother’s safety, you fret over irrelevant matters!”

“If I let Little Baby go in exchange for Rong Mu, will you actually pay the remaining fifty million to the kidnappers?” Rong Yan’s beautiful face was tinged with a cold disbelief. “I’m afraid that once it’s confirmed Rong Mu is safe, your first reaction would be to call the police.”

Rong Nanfeng hadn’t thought that far yet, but as Rong Yan suddenly mentioned it, his mind subconsciously drifted in that direction. The thought of calling the police did indeed come to mind once he knew Rong Mu would be safely back.

After all, a hundred million wasn’t a sum to joke about; he certainly didn’t want to give it away for nothing.

If calling the police could help him retrieve the fifty million he’d already paid, he was indeed inclined to give it a try.

As for the safety of the child… it shouldn’t lead to a tear-up ticket, right?

He didn’t dwell on why he didn’t dare to bet on the one in ten thousand chance to call the police now, whereas after the kidnappers exchanged the hostages, he dared to entertain the idea of calling the police without necessarily fearing they would harm the hostages.

When faced with Rong Yan’s questioning, whether out of guilt or shortness of breath, Rong Nanfeng felt a trace of annoyance. With pursed lips, he unpleasantly said, “Be assured, I will pay the remaining fifty million! The pressing matter now is, where is that child? Let him first exchange for Mu before anything else!”

Twenty years of father-daughter affection as cold as water, Rong Yan had long seen through the Rong Family’s true faces. Her eyes were cool and distant, as she stated flatly, “I won’t let Little Baby go to exchange for Rong Mu; you can stop thinking about it—it’s not going to happen!”

Little Baby was the treasure she carried for ten months and gave birth to with great difficulty. For five years, they had relied on each other, with Rong Nanfeng never caring for their well-being.

Her Little Baby was so well-behaved, so understanding, she wouldn’t play Saint Mary and believe Rong Nanfeng’s words, believing those kidnappers wouldn’t do anything to Little Baby.

Nor did she believe for a second that if Little Baby really managed to exchange for Rong Mu, Rong Nanfeng would honestly pay the remaining fifty million.

She had no reason whatsoever to gamble the safety of her child’s life to protect a group of people from the Rong Family!

Hearing her unwavering refusal, Rong Nanfeng exploded in rage, fiercely banged the table, and pointed at Rong Yan’s nose, “That is your biological brother!”

“You share a blood connection that runs thicker than water; how can you be so heartless?!”

Rong Yan had long been accustomed to their accusations. Ever since she was young, whenever something bad happened, whether it was related to her or not, she was always the one they blamed.

Rong Yan sat unmoved, without a single reaction, “Yes, I am that heartless. Mr. Rong, are you only realizing who I am today?”

“You…” Rong Nanfeng, driven to a rage, his square face darkening, his chest heaving, trembled as he spoke, “That’s your brother. Even if you haven’t seen each other, he’s still your brother. Can you really bear to watch him die with your own eyes? He’s only eight years old—just a child… I’m not asking for that child’s life in exchange, I’m just saying, let that child help me bring Mu back…”
