The King's Enchanting-Chapter 1573 - 1585: The Great Escape (Part 6)
If their goal was merely to seek revenge, and I was implicated by Situ Xuan, then these kidnappers wouldn’t have ignored the chance to get something from Situ Xuan.
Something’s off, it’s a bit off.
—Unless their original target wasn’t just Situ Xuan, but also her!
But she had only been to Austria ten years ago when she studied piano. Although she couldn’t understand what they were saying specifically, she could at least tell they were speaking Italian. She was sure she didn’t know any Italians, let alone have any feuds.
Perhaps Situ Xuan was tired of biting, he paused slightly, Jian Anning suddenly asked: "Situ Xuan, do you know any Italians?"
Situ Xuan was taken aback, then replied: "I don’t know, but Thomas does. Thomas is from Texas, he has a bit of a feud with the mafia here in Italy."
That made things clear. Jian Anning nodded, suddenly asked again: "Since they know who you are, then why haven’t they asked your subordinates for money? Not even taken money from your bank card?"
Situ Xuan was about to bite the rope, suddenly halted. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
"They should know you are wealthy, and—since they even know you keep a gun in your car, don’t they know, the Situ Family, you’re alone, if they take you down, who knows how much profit they might gain? If they were sent by those who have a feud with your family, it’s likely they’d have demanded money from your enemies the moment of your kidnapping. Why haven’t they asked you for a single cent, nor even looked in your wallet, but rather demanded a huge ransom from the police?"
Situ Xuan paused again.
Indeed, in the kidnapping business, it’s either for money, harm, or revenge. Harm didn’t happen, revenge was supposed to target Situ Xuan, but since they seek money, there’s no reason, Situ Xuan, a living person, is right here, his wallet with him, plus plenty of bank cards and cash. Yet they don’t even glance and only ask Yu Zexiao for ransom!
Ransom safer than withdrawing from Situ Xuan’s bank card? Even a fool knows demanding ransom might alert the police, attract more attention. If they’re truly after money, there’s no need to take such a long detour!
"What do you mean?"
Jian Anning suddenly turned her head, gaze intense: "Maybe their target all along was just me!"
Situ Xuan was utterly stunned. It wasn’t that his mind wasn’t as quick as Jian Anning’s, but ever since Franz encountered him, knowing about his habit of carrying a gun, he never doubted that these Italians were after him!
He always regretted plotting a kidnapping, only to be outsmarted, and let Jian Anning fall into greater danger. Engulfed in such self-remorse, he never considered whether their target might truly be Jian Anning?
Alright, regardless of these people’s target, if he hadn’t attempted to kidnap her, she might still be safe now. Thinking thus, Situ Xuan felt regret once more, made a concerted effort to move, and continued biting: "Let me help you bite it open!"
