The Mafia King's First Love-Chapter 24 - Taken Away!

Lang Min turned to sit back in the car, but a fuming Lihua grabbed his shoulder and slapped him hard across his cheek.

He was stunned and a burning pain stung him. "You slapped me?"

"I will slap you again! How dare you compensate with money! Just because you are rich you think that you could get out of this by throwing money on my face? Do you think that someone's life can be compensated by this cheque?"

"I don't have time for your foolishness!" He sweated and checked the roads again.

I need to leave before those men find me!

"Get away!" He pushed her away.

But Lihua grabbed his arm. "Where are you going? You should be sent to jail and you are running away!"

They got into a small fight where he tried to shake her off. "Let me go!"

"No! People like you should rot in jail!"

Suddenly, another van stopped right in front of them and three masked goons rushed out.

The businessman, Lang Min, paled.

"Take him," the leader ordered.

One of the men grabbed him and pushed his head inside the van. "No! Let me go! Let me go!"

Lihua was shocked.

What is happening? Kidnapping?

The second man asked as he looked at Lihua, "What to do with this woman? Is she with him too?"

"We don't have time. Take her as well. Better safe than sorry."

He grabbed her arm.

Lihua's chest thudded in fear. "Hey! Who are you? Leave me!"

She flailed her arms and legs, trying to resist. But they easily overpowered her and dumped her into the van with Lang Min. In a blink of an eye, two adults were forcefully dragged into a van and the goons escaped.

The crowd could only watch in shock. Some of them had recorded a video, so they uploaded it on Weibo and social media.

'OMG! I just witnessed a kidnapping in broad daylight!'

---

In college, the video went viral in no time. Students were shocked to see Lihua getting kidnapped. Meng Ya, being Lihua's best friend, her condition was worse.

Lihua…

Her eyes teared up and her face marred with worry for her.

Oh my God. L-Lihua is...what will they do to her? Why did they take her away?

What should I do now!

She quickly thought of Wei.

"I should tell this to Mr. Jiang! Isn't he a CEO? He will find her in no time!"

Just like everyone else with yesterday's incident, Meng Ya misunderstood that something was really going on between Lihua and him, and Lihua didn't have time to clear it.

Of course, Meng Ya didn't even have Fu Renshu's number much less Wei's. So, she found out the reception number from the internet.

"Jiang Corps. How may I help you?"

"I want to talk to Mr. Jiang! It's really urgent!"

"Excuse me? Please identify yourself. Do you have an appointment?"

"I am Meng Ya, Song Lihua's friend. I-I don't have an appointment but it's really urgent! Please let me talk to Mr. Jiang!"

"Without an appointment, I cannot let you talk to Sir." 𝑓𝐫𝑒e𝒘𝚎𝘣𝚗𝘰𝘷𝐞𝑙.co𝑚

"No, please! It's important! It's about Song Lihua. She is an intern who Mr. Jiang has recently hired in his company. She is in trouble and only he can help her."

"Miss, please don't waste our time. We know women like you who make such excuses to meet our Sir. Don't call here again."

"Wait! Lihua is kidn-"

The phone hung up.

"Hello? Hello?"

Meng Ya gritted her teeth.

Is she a fool? Why would I lie?

She nervously paced back and forth until she decided.

I have to go to the company myself!

Lang Min and Lihua were roughly thrown on the ground in Shadow Eagle's dark basement. Theri hands and wrists were tied.

Lihua frantically looked at them.

"Who are you, people? Why have you kidnapped us here?"

"Shut up. You will soon know. Until then, keep quiet or I will cut off your tongue."

Lihua jolted and shut her mouth.

They left them alone and locked the door.

Lihua looked at Lang Min, who looked as white as a ghost.

"They will kill me. They will kill me now…It's all over..." he mumbled to himself.

Lihua said, "Hey! What are you mumbling to yourself? Do you know what is happening here? Why did they kidnap us?"

He was sweating hard and panting breathlessly. He didn't respond to her at all.

Ughhh, useless!

Lihua bit her lip. Her heart raced in panic, but she had no choice but to wait.

It is definitely a misunderstanding. I don't have anything to do with these people. They have to let me go once I clear everything!

A while later, the door opened and Chang Fang stepped in. Lihua got afraid a little, seeing the huge scar on his eye. She gulped.

Chang Fang sat on his Boss's seat and stared at them. He narrowed his eyes as he noticed Lihua.

"Why this extra person?"

The subordinate bowed. "We saw her with Lang Min and figured she knew him. So we brought her too."

"Hm," he nodded.

"What?" Lihua was stunned. "I don't know this man! I would never have anything to do with such a heartless and disgusting man!"

Chang Fang's mouth twitched.

"Silence. You will not speak until I tell you to."

He glanced at Lang Min and sneered. "Long time no see Lang Min. I heard you were leaving the country, but it seems you forgot that there is this debt to us you haven't paid back until now. You were trying to run away huh? But I cannot let you leave until you settle all the money I loaned you."

Lang Min stiffened and paled.

Lihua immediately understood the context.

Loan sharking?

Chang Fang asked, "How much is the money accumulated by now?"

The subordinate immediately responded. "Boss, with interest, it sums up to seventy-two million Yuan."

Lihua widened her eyes.

So much money...

"And how much has he returned until now?"

"Nothing, Boss."

"Ahh...well this makes things ugly for you Lang Min," he sinisterly smiled. "I already gave you an extra month but seems like it has gone to waste."

Lang Min sweated hard. He glanced at Lihua and suddenly an idea struck him.

"Boss, please have mercy on me! I am not at fault. This wretched woman took away everything!"

Lihua jerked her head towards him in shock.

What the hell?

"She was my mistress and she cleverly fooled me into giving all the money to her. She took your money and spent it all on herself!"
