Chapter 392 Being Kidnapped
âBecause of it, I canât return to my homeland to reunite with my family. Do you think I didnât want to leave sooner? But I promised your mother that all I could do is to keep my promise.â Lang Qiâs expression gradually becomes cold, âYou thought I had always hated you because you were not the heir I like, didnât you?â
Brown listens to him blankly, his heart growing increasingly panicky.
âLook! Thatâs why Iâm against it.â Lang Qi spreads out his hands, âBecause I have found for a long time that you were not capable of being a patriarch.â
Brownâs face suddenly changes color, and he suddenly stands up, âYou talk nonsense! Why do you deny me?â
âBecause I havenât been able to hand over the family to you for so many years. Because you forced me to hand over the family to you, but you couldnât manage it well and had to come to me.â Lang Qi says coldly, âDid I say wrong? Just like what I said at the beginning, if you just want to see if Iâve led a good life, now you see, Iâm living a good life. Therefore, you can go. In the future, take good care of the family, which is left to you by your mother.â
Brownâs face has been twisted. He bends down slightly and stares at Lang Qi, âWhat do you mean? I canât manage the family well? How could it have been this way if you didnât make trouble behind my back?â
âYou are obsessive.â Lang Qi doesnât want to talk to him anymore, âSince it is so, why are you staying here?â
âIâ¦â Brown tries to walk away simply and completely, but he doesnât dare.
Lang Qiâs smile becomes mocking, âWhy? Donât want to leave?â
âYou said that I couldnât manage the family well. Then who can do it? Your natural son?â Brown flushes, âOr because you canât get Anselm Family, you want to destroy it.â
ââ¦â Lang Qi feels that Laura might have been blind. He hasnât corrected Brownâs values for so many years, but Brown has become more and more stupid.
Brown finally yells once and for all, so Lang Qi drives him out directly. He stands at the door and looks at the somewhat awkward adopted son and feels extremely disappointed.
âYou go back. Since I handed over Anselm Family to you, it will have nothing to do with me.â
âDoesnât it matter if the family is gone?â Brown shakes off the hands of his underlings and shouts at Lang Qi.
Lang Qi smiles, âThe original promise was to let you take over the family. Once you become the new patriarch, my agreement with Laura is over. Go back. Youâd better think about how to run the family well if you have time. As you said, thatâs what your mother left to you. I hope you conduct yourself well then.â
With a slam, the gate of the villa is closed.
Brown stares at the gate for a few seconds, and then walks away without looking back.
âYour adopted son is gone?â Lang Ruoxian is not surprised at all when he receives a phone call from Lang Qi.
Lang Qi isnât surprised why he has known it, and just reminds him, âBrown is arrogant and small-minded. I rejected him. But he wonât be willing to let go.â
âI see.â Since Lang Ruoxian has attracted Brown to come here, he wonât give Brown a chance to calculate him and his family.
However, Tang Duo has been nervous all day. She returns to their house with the twins early. When Lang Ruoxian arrives home, she pulls him into the kitchen.
âIâm afraid Grandma and Dad know it, so weâll talk about it here in the future. Brown was driven away by Dad. So he will certainly not give up.â
Lang Ruoxian smiles and says, âThis time youâve seen it thoroughly.â
âNo, Dad told me.â Tang Duo squints, âHe told me to be careful lately and not to go out alone.â
Lang Ruoxian hugs her, âRest assured. Iâll make someone keep an eye on him.â
âSo he really wanted to kidnap me again to threaten Dad?â
âIf I guess correctly, he will kidnap me this time.â Lang Ruoxian raises his eyebrows.
Tang Duo thinks about it and feels Lang Ruoxianâs guess is right. Brown must be particularly jealous of him, for Brown is Lang Qiâs adopted son while Lang Ruoxian is Lang Qiâs biological son. And Brown is now failing to manage Anselm Family well. Seeing Lang Ruoxian be so successful, he must feel more unbalanced in his heart.
âYou have to be more careful. Donât work overtime lately in the evening and just come home after work.â When Lang Ruoxian comes to work the next day, Tang Duo keeps saying, âDonât drive by yourself and let Shu Sheng and the driver send you.â
Lang Ruoxian promises, and sees Lang Qi smile at him. He also smiles and turns his head to say, âYouâd better not play with my father-in-law recently. In case Brown is ashamed into anger and kidnaps you, it will get my father-in-law into trouble.â
Do you only take care of your father-in-law in your heart? Lang Qi feels sad. But when he sees Tang Duo suddenly become nervous, he has to say, âRelax. I wonât take him out recently.â
Lang Ruoxian kisses Tang Duo before turning around and adds, âYou should go out less yourself.â
âDonât worry! I wonât go out.â Lang Qi is very happy and nods hard.
When Lang Ruoxianâs car drives away, Tang Duo feeds the twins breakfast. She secretly summarizes vocabulary before speaking.
âDad, Ruoxian doesnât express himself very much, but in fact he cares about you a lot.â
Lang Qi holds Sweet Orange so that keeps her robbing Anâanâs steamed egg custard, âI see. Though I never raised him, I know my son very well.â
âHe began to look for you while he found that you might be alive.â Tang Duo whispers.
Lang Qi smiles, knowing that his daughter-in-law is feeling distressed about his son, âIf Brown didnât make any trouble before, Ruoxian would probably bring me back last time.â
Lang Ruoxian went to him, but didnât see him, just waiting for his own choice, to see that he wanted to choose his natural son or Anselm Family and his adopted son.
âHe did it on purpose, because he knew that once I returned to homeland, Brown would quickly fail to manage the family well and have to find me.â Lang Qi sighs, âIt is unknown who this kid had learned from. Heâs even more cunning than a fox.â
This is better than him. Lang Qin once said that Lang Ruoxian inherited Lang Qiâs craftiness, but he was crueler than him. Because Lang Qi was not so cruel that he had to keep the promise to Laura and hadnât returned to his homeland for so many years.
â¦It was really his plan again.
Tang Duo feels stifled, âHeâs always like this. It is unknown what Brown is going to do, and heâs not afraid to fail to deal with Brown.â
Lang Qi snorts, âSpeaking of intelligence, he exceeds Brown a lot. Speaking of abjection⦠He also exceeds Brown a lot.â
Brown comes again twice, and Lang Qi doesnât see him. At this time, the news from Anselm Family has been worse and worse. Brown is anxious. He canât stand the shrinking of the wealth empire he has just taken over. As Lang Ruoxian wishes, he is kidnapped by Brown.
âYou should know who I am, right?â Brown has Lang Ruoxian rudely taken to the villa on the outskirts where he temporarily lives. This is also the first time the two have meet.
Lang Ruoxian is tied up and stands in the middle of the sitting room to look at him, âYou should know that this is Hua Country.â
ââ¦What do you want to say?â Brown originally wanted to talk to him politely, but this guyâs tone and expression are too similar to those of Lang Qiâs.
They both look down upon him.
âYou have violated the laws of Hua Country.â Lang Ruoxian moves his neck, âOf course, you can continue, so that the crime will be more serious then. And my dad has to go to prison to visit you.â
Brown, with a cold face, asks someone to untie the rope. Then Brown pours himself a glass of wine and sits down, âLang Ruoxian, you are indeed the biological son of that man, and everything you two say is equally obnoxious.â
âIf youâre smart enough, you donât need to listen to us.â Lang Ruoxian cleans up his suit and sits opposite to him, âNow you want to talk to me, or utilize me to talk to my dad?â
The calmer he is, the more angry Brown is. Why? Why canât the father and son be more mediocre?
âCall my father.â Brown takes his eyes off Lang Ruoxian to prevent himself from the urge to really kill Lang Ruoxian.
Lang Qi rushes over when he receives the phone call. Tang Duo sees him leaving in a hurry when she stays in Bai Susuâs house. Having associated with what Shu Sheng told her that Lang Ruoxian would come back late from the meeting today, she thinks that something must have happened.
âMom, I shall go out.â She picks up the car key and runs out.
Bai Susu canât stop her. She sees that there is something wrong, so she rings up Tang Cao immediately.
Tang Duo drives to follow Lang Qi all the way to the large villas in the suburbs and sees him stop in front of a villa. Two foreigners lead him in. She is even more certain that Brown must have acted and Lang Ruoxian must be in it.
âFather, youâre here so fast!â Brown sees Lang Qi come in and makes a gesture to ask him to sit down.
Lang Qi looks around, frowning, and asks, âWhere is Ruoxian?â
âHeâs fine!â Brown shrugs, âStrictly speaking, I should call him brother. Heâs in a room of the third-floor, but he canât come out for the time being.â
Lang Qi looks at him coldly, âWhat do you want?â
âI want you to return to Anselm Family with me.â Brown says quickly, and then says with a calm expression, âFather, todayâs Anselm Family owes it all to you. Isnât it good for you to come back with me so that I can provide for you?â
âAnd then what?â Lang Qi sneers, âTrap me there. If something happens, I shall appear to deal with it. If nothing happens, you wonât let me bother about anything about the family. Am I right?â
Brown waves his hand fiercely, âWhatâs wrong with that? You can stay anywhere to retire, and you can enjoy better conditions in Anselm Family. As long as something happens to the family, you appear to deal with it. You will usually live comfortably at ordinary times.â
âHa haâ¦â Lang Qi shakes his head, âLaura couldnât see your selfishness at that time. I thought I could teach you, but unfortunatelyâ¦â
âDonât talk about the nonsense!â Brown hurriedly says, âFather, donât force me. If you donât follow me to leave todayâ¦â He claps his hands, and the glass door of the sitting room suddenly is opened. Through the floor-to-ceiling window to the third floor, a person can be seen hanging there.
Lang Qi quickly walks over and raises his head. Lang Ruoxian dangles upside down in the air with his feet tied to the third-floor terrace.
âFather, although the third floor is not high, but if he falls down he must turn into an idiot even he isnât unlucky to die!â Brown slowly leans over and looks at Lang Ruoxian hanging there, âAs long as you follow me to leave now, Tang Family members will be informed to come and rescue him when we are on the plane.â
Lang Qi ignores him and shouts at Lang Ruoxian, âThatâs all you can do?â
âYes, you should go with him quickly.â Lang Ruoxian squints with head over heels, âI have a hard time with this posture.â
Just after his speaking, there is uproar suddenly upstairs. It is unknown when Tang Duo has run up, lying prone there and tugging the rope.
