Spoiled by the CEO after amnesia!-Chapter 514 - 512: Embracing the World’s Most Precious Gift
Yan Bin was shocked, his gaze suddenly sharpened, and his fists clenched with a crackling sound, like a ravenous beast with red-hot eyes.
"Vice Mayor Yan, could it really be the Huo Family’s people coming for us..." his confidant said, trembling with fear.
If it wasn’t the Huo Family’s people, who else could it be?
Huo Zhenyang, indeed merciless and ruthless, never intended to let him go from the start.
A threatening phone call in exchange for his relentless pursuit.
In just one night, he managed to muster his troops and find his location, determined to put him to death.
"Huo Zhenyang! Damn you for being so ruthless!" Yan Bin clenched his fists and kicked a chair beside him flying with one foot!
"There’s no time left, if we’re found, whether we’re handed over to the police or the Longding Society, we’re done for. Vice Mayor, we should move now!"
Two bodyguards urged them on, panicked!
The warehouse district was vast, and the factories were chaotic and numerous; it wouldn’t be easy to search and find them quickly. There was still time to leave.
The sound of the helicopter’s rotors above grew louder and seemed to come closer to the ground. The sound of car wheels from not far outside the warehouse was also getting clearer.
It was as if hunters with shotguns had entered the jungle, seemingly ready to overturn the entire Harbor Warehouse District in a thorough search.
Yan Bin gritted his teeth, and just as he was about to leave through the back door, surrounded by his core supporters, he had a thought, stopped in his tracks, and growled lowly: "Take that woman and the little brat with us!"
His followers were surprised. What was the point of bringing the mother and child? They were on the run for their lives; having two hostages would only slow them down.
"Vice Mayor Yan, Huo Zhenyang doesn’t care about that mother and child at all. Taking them won’t be of any use and will only hold us back—" his confidant hastily said.
"Bring them anyway if things get tough, at least they could provide us with some cover in the end," Yan Bin insisted resolutely.
The bodyguards hesitated no more and walked to the door of the small warehouse where the hostages were kept, opening it.
Jiayi, who was behind the door, heard everything clearly. As the door flew open with a bang, she alertly stepped back and took Zaizai’s hand, who was already awake.
"Mommy..." Zaizai clung tightly to Jiayi’s hand.
"Where are you taking us? I’ve told you, Mr. Huo’s relationship with us is not as close as you think it is. Why are you still taking us? Let us go," Jiayi said calmly.
"Quit the nonsense! Move!" 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
Jiayi gave Zaizai a look and pinched his behind.
Zaizai immediately understood what his mommy meant and started to wail, half real, half fake!
"Damn it! Why cry now?! Pick up your brat and let’s go! Otherwise, don’t blame me for not being polite!" The commotion caused by the mother and child was wasting their precious time, and the two bodyguards frowned and cursed.
Zaizai cried even louder, "I won’t go, won’t go, scared—"
"Are we done yet? Why so much fuss!" one of Yan Bin’s confidants came in and urged.
Jiayi hurriedly said, "Take me with you. Leave my son here. He gets scared easily and won’t stop crying even if I try to soothe him! If you take him along, his wailing will expose you and put you in danger!"
The confidant wasn’t very supportive of Yan Bin’s decision to bring the mother and child along at this crucial time and, looking at the child, frowned: "Tie up that kid! Take the woman and follow! No more dawdling!"
Two bodyguards walked over, tied up Zaizai with a rope, stuffed a cloth strip into his mouth, and then roughly pushed and shoved Jiayi out.
Yan Bin had already heard from his confidant. Seeing Jiayi come out alone, he didn’t say much, just humphed.
The group hurriedly made their way towards the back door.
Jiayi glanced at Zaizai, who was left alone in the warehouse, and sighed with relief. As long as Zaizai was safe, she wasn’t so scared anymore.
Inside the warehouse, with everyone gone, only a vast quietness remained.
A few minutes later, Zaizai’s little hands, tied behind his back, moved slightly, revealing part of a sharp little tin can lid.
When Jiayi had offered to leave Zaizai in the warehouse, she anticipated they would definitely tie him up and secretly slipped the small tin can lid into her son’s hands.
Fortunately, the warehouse had nothing else inside, and scraps of metal like this were everywhere.
Zaizai had kept the tin clenched in his palm the whole time, waiting until Mommy left with the bad guys, and after a good while, making sure no one would come back, he started to saw at the rope with the piece of tin that was exposed.
The rope was thick, the kind used in the warehouse specifically for tying up containers, and it took a long time to cut even a small notch.
Finally, as time passed, the rope came loose, and Zaizai moved his wrists, feeling relieved, and quickly removed the cloth from his mouth, then jumped down from the chair and ran towards the exit of warehouse number 69—
The first thing was to find someone to save Mommy!
Just now, while inside the door, he and Mommy had heard those bad guys talking about someone from the Huo Family coming, wasn’t that Godfather?!
He kept running along the paths between the warehouses until he heard the sound of car wheels rolling on the ground, getting closer to this side.
Several large-tire, raised chassis black jeeps, like hunters of the city, effortlessly crossed the bumpy warehouse stone ground, kicking up a cloud of dust and heading into the depths of the warehouse district.
"Stop, stop!" Zaizai, fearing the people in the cars wouldn’t see him and pass by, stood in the middle of the road, panting heavily, with his little hands waving frantically!
In the first vehicle, Ade saw the small figure clearly and was shocked, fearing he might accidentally hurt Zaizai, he hit the brakes and gestured with his hand out the window for the following cars to stop!
"Boss! It’s Zaizai," Ade called back.
In the back seat, Huo Zhenyang, who had just landed from a flight, dusty and dressed in a black trench coat, had a stern look but softened a bit at the sight of the small figure on the road ahead.
The moment his gaze landed on Zaizai, the fierce look in his eyes mellowed, and with a bang, he opened the car door and walked straight towards the front.
Zaizai rubbed his eyes, it was Godfather, no doubt!
Godfather had arrived!
He ran forward with his little chubby legs and plunged into his arms: "Godfather—you’ve come! I knew you would!"
Huo Zhenyang lifted him up with one hand, his light eyes struggling to contain the emotions surging like waves: "It’s alright now, where’s your mommy?"
Behind him, the Huo Family’s bodyguards peered out of their jeep windows at the scene ahead, feeling somewhat moved.
They’d never seen the Boss use such a doting tone and manner with a child. At this moment, the Boss was holding the child in one arm as if he were holding the most precious gift in the world.
"Mommy was taken away by some bad guys, they left through the back door of warehouse number 69! I don’t know where they’re going, Godfather, you have to save Mommy quickly!"
