Chapter 576: Chapter 574: 574: You Can Exchange It with A Person

He provided an overseas bank account number.

Rong Nanfeng gritted his teeth and said, “I can’t possibly prepare so much money right away, I can give you half at most to start with, and I’ll need time to prepare the rest. Also, my son just said he has a headache, what’s going on?”

“It’s nothing serious, just a fever, probably no more than forty degrees. Mr. Rong should prepare a bit quicker, no one’s going to die.”

This answer was practically a death sentence for Rong Nanfeng.

“I’ll give you all the money, can you release Mu first, or take him to the hospital?”

The man on the other end chuckled disdainfully, “Mr. Rong, do you think I’m an idiot? If I release the boy first, would you give me the rest of the money?”

“If anything happens to my son, I won’t let you go even if it costs me my life!”

The man on the phone considered for a moment, then said, “How about this, you find someone to replace the bargaining chip in my hand, and that can work, but I want a kid, and one who is blood-related to you. Otherwise, how can I be sure that Mr. Rong will send the rest of the money honestly?”

“Once you find a suitable person, you can flash me a call. As for when I’ll call you, that will depend on my mood.” The man sounded a sinister warning, “I’ll say it one more time, Mr. Rong, don’t even think about calling the police. I know people at the police station and I have my people on your side too. If you make a rash move, I’ll have no choice but to send your son to Heaven! Think carefully!”

After that, he hung up.

“Hello! Hello!” Rong Nanfeng clutched the receiver, his complexion livid as he roared at the other end, but only a beeping tone resounded from the receiver.

Angered, he slammed the receiver down on the desk, his chest heaving violently.

The other party was clearly making things difficult for him; where could he find a child blood-related to him to replace Mu?

Mu… His heart clenched sharply, and his head felt like it would split.

He was nearly fifty when he had his late-in-life son, the sole heir to his bloodline; the Rong Family was destined to be handed over to the only male in the house, and he would not allow the roots of the Rong Family to be severed during his lifetime.

One billion wasn’t a big deal; the big deal was that Mu had a fever. What was he to do?

Rong Weiwei listened to the entire negotiation by his side. Her eyes shifted, a spark of inspiration flashed in her mind, and a smile quickly curled the corners of her mouth.

She was still worried about how to get that illegitimate child out from under Rong Yan’s protective wing, but wasn’t the opportunity now delivered to her doorstep?

Rong Weiwei suppressed the joy in her heart and forced herself to wear a somber expression. She approached Rong Nanfeng and said softly, trying to comfort him, “Dad, Mu will be okay, don’t worry.”

Rong Nanfeng was so preoccupied with thoughts of his kidnapped child that he had no mood to pay attention to her.

Rong Weiwei was not offended at all. After offering comfort, she spoke as though troubled, “The condition that man proposed just now, I thought of a way. But…”

“What way?” Rong Nanfeng had been ignoring her, but the moment he heard her mention a way, he immediately fixed a fiery stare on her.

Rong Weiwei seemed to struggle, and only under Rong Nanfeng’s pressing gaze did she ‘reluctantly’ begin, “I remember the news mentioning that my sister had a son five years ago, that child would be your grandson. If my sister is willing to help and let her little nephew assist in the exchange, the other party should have no objections, and they would release Mu.”

“You mean Yan’er?” Rong Nanfeng seemed to realize for the first time that he should turn to Rong Yan, and also remembered the incident from five years ago when Rong Yan became pregnant before marriage.

He had never paid attention to Rong Yan’s news, nor was he aware of the commotion regarding Huang Youde that Rong Weiwei mentioned, but now, it sounded like a lifeline to him.
