BXBX NOVEL Chapter 43: 43 Begging for Mercy
“Why? I’ll tell you why. Your dad doesn’t approve of us being together; we have no future at all.”
“The only outcome for us in the end is a breakup, after all, everything you have comes from your dad, and on such a major issue as marriage, there’s no way you would go against your dad’s wishes.”
“Right now, your kindness to me is just for fun. When it’s time for you to marry, you’ll certainly kick me to the curb.”
“Since that’s the case, why should I stay with you? I want to pursue my own life.”
Ye Jingjing spoke righteously.
Originally, she hadn’t thought about these things, still dreaming of marrying into a wealthy family.
After learning about her situation, Liang Yurui analyzed it for her, saying she could never marry into a wealthy family.
Those were the reasons she’d just mentioned.
Ye Jingjing felt Liang Yurui’s arguments made sense, which is why she hooked up with him again.
“If you don’t want to be with me, you could ask to break up with me. I’m not the type to pester annoyingly. What’s the meaning of having this man show up in front of me today, to put on this act for me?”
Jiang Yuheng acknowledged that there was some truth to what Ye Jingjing had said.
Despite the pressure, he was with Ye Jingjing.
But they were just boyfriend and girlfriend, and if it came to marriage, it probably wouldn’t work out.
His dad didn’t agree, and marriage seemed unlikely.
In other words, their breakup was inevitable.
He didn’t see any issue with it, as for a second-generation rich kid like him, this behavior was quite normal.
He had a friend named Wang Xiaocong who changed girlfriends even more frequently than him.
This was the life of the rich second generation.
If the other party didn’t want to be with him anymore, they could just say so.
He would even provide a certain amount of breakup fee, to ensure a clean and amicable separation.
But the other party’s actions now, Jiang Yuheng really couldn’t understand what they meant.
“Of course, it’s about money,” Ye Jingjing stated.
“Money, what do you mean?” Jiang Yuheng was somewhat puzzled.
“Let me explain it. We’re going to kidnap you and demand your father to pay us a ransom. Only when we get the money will we release you,” Liang Yurui said with a smirk.
“Don’t you fear getting caught doing something like this? Do you think you can escape?” Jiang Yuheng hadn’t expected them to actually plan on kidnapping him.
“Once we have the money, we’ll flee the country. By then, who could catch us?” Liang Yurui sneered, confident that everything was under his control and unafraid of getting caught.
“You won’t be able to escape,” Jiang Yuheng said.
“Whether we can escape or not is up to me, not you. What you need to do is cooperate with us. Call your dad and get him to send the money.”
“Don’t worry, we’re not greedy. We only want five billion; with that money, we can live a rich life forever.”
“With your family’s wealth, five billion is nothing to you, easily manageable.”
Liang Yurui was overjoyed thinking that five billion would be in his hands soon.
Even after receiving the money, he wouldn’t let Jiang Yuheng off. He was really annoyed with rich second-generation kids like him.
Why should they be living in luxury without worries?
While he had to work himself to death without seeing any hope.
“Ye Jingjing, I advise you to back off, or no one can save you,” Jiang Yuheng said, looking at Ye Jingjing.
“Impossible, just obediently call your dad and ask him to send the money,” Ye Jingjing insisted.
Since it had come to this, backing off was impossible. There was only one path left—to follow through to the end.
“We were once in love. What I just did was to give you a chance. If you were willing to back off, I wouldn’t have done anything to you. We could pretend this never happened. Since you don’t want to seize the opportunity, don’t blame me,” Jiang Yuheng said.
“What do you mean?” Ye Jingjing’s eyes were filled with a mix of suspicion and alarm.
Liang Yurui’s heart sank with a premonition of something bad.
“Come in,” said Jiang Yuhang.
Come in?
Ye Jingjing and Liang Yurui exchanged glances, unsure what Jiang Yuhang meant.
“You brought people over? But if you did bring someone, and you say so, can the people outside really hear you? Has your brain gone bad?” Liang Yurui’s face was full of confusion.
“I brought a bodyguard with me today, who is waiting for me downstairs.”
“Before I came up, my phone was always on, I kept in touch with the bodyguard, and I also had the recorder on.”
“Our conversation just now must have been heard by the bodyguard, who should be waiting at the door by now.”
Although Jiang Yuhang did not fully believe Xu Yang’s words, they still aroused his suspicion.
Better safe than sorry.
He called one of his father’s bodyguards to come over.
With the phone on, the bodyguard knew everything.
A recording on, that’s evidence.
As his words fell, the room door made a loud bang as it was forced open.
A man in a black suit walked in.
Seeing the newcomer, Liang Yurui and Ye Jingjing were startled and at a loss for what to do.
The two had never expected such a situation and had made no preparations to deal with it, sitting on the sofa without any action.
“Young Master Jiang, what should we do?” the bodyguard asked.
“Call the police, let the police handle it,” Jiang Yuhang said.
Even if he did something to Liang Yurui and Ye Jingjing, beat them up or even cripple them, his status meant he wouldn’t face any trouble for it.
But that’s not who he was; he would not do such things—he still thought it best to leave it to the police.
“All right,” the bodyguard took out his phone, preparing to make the call.
“Don’t you dare call the police!” Liang Yurui finally snapped out of it, leapt up, and rushed at the bodyguard, attempting to snatch away his phone.
He knew that if the bodyguard called the police, even though it would be attempted kidnapping, both he and Ye Jingjing would be jailed, since they had already acted, and there was clear evidence in the recorded phone call.
If they went to jail, their lives would be over; even if they were released, they wouldn’t land a decent job.
Originally, with their education, as long as they worked hard, they could have had a decent life.
But by doing this, they had doomed their entire lives.
But he was just an ordinary person; how could he possibly snatch a phone from a bodyguard?
He didn’t even get close before the bodyguard kicked him to the ground.
“You bastard, I’ll kill you!” Liang Yurui lost all reason, oblivious to the pain, struggled up from the ground, grabbed a chair, and swung it at the bodyguard.
The bodyguard, quick and agile, dodged the attack.
“You’re asking for it!”
A flash of anger crossed the bodyguard’s eyes.
He wasn’t in a hurry to call anymore; he decided to deal with Liang Yurui first.
He strode towards Liang Yurui, kicked him over and began to punch and kick him, leaving Liang Yurui screaming in agony, constantly begging for mercy.
“Ah! Stop hitting me, please, I know I was wrong, if you keep hitting me, I’m going to die, and if you kill me, you’re going down too.”
“Ah! Young Master Jiang, I know I was wrong. Please let me off, tell him to stop hitting me!”
“Ah! Jingjing, speak up for me, tell him to stop, you’re Jiang Yuhang’s girlfriend, he will definitely listen to you, ah!”
Liang Yurui begged incessantly, finding it useless, then turned to Jiang Yuhang, but to no avail, so he tried to implore Ye Jingjing to persuade Jiang Yuhang.
Even now, he claimed Ye Jingjing was Jiang Yuhang’s girlfriend.
It has to be said, Liang Yurui was shameless indeed.
