After a moment of silence, Chu Xiaoran's gentle and sweet voice came through the phone, sounding a bit downcast: "Brother, I'm fine, everything is okay, don't worry."
"Did they bully you? Are you getting enough to eat?"
"They didn't bully me and they're giving me food, rest assured."
Shen Congru felt much relieved by his sister's answer.
The impatient voice of the kidnapper came through the phone: "Alright, stop the chatter, remember to make the exchange on time tomorrow, only one person is allowed to come, don't try anything funny, or you'll never see your sister again."
Xu Xiangbei decided to go in place of Shen Congru for the hostage exchange.
At East City Overpass, noon is the busiest time, with many cars below and many people on the bridge.
Xu Xiangbei carried a black Elysée handbag containing the Heart of the Ocean Blue Diamond worth hundreds of millions. He looked like a tourist wandering on the overpass eating an ice cream sundae.
