Chasing Wife in Crematorium: Abandoned Young Master

Chapter 23 What can I do if I don’t save him?

Tong Husheng was locked up in a dark room by the gang, and he regretted it so much that his intestines turned green. He curled up in a corner, and waves of pain came from his body, which was caused by the beating he had just received.

"/Damn/, what sin have I committed!" He couldn't help but curse in a low voice.

At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a guy with a face full of flesh walked in. He held a stick in his hand and stared at Tong Husheng viciously.

"Boy, have you made up your mind? Two hundred thousand, not a penny less!" said the guy.

Tong Husheng's heart skipped a beat. Two hundred thousand? Where did he get so much money? He quickly begged for mercy, "Brother, I really don't have that much money. Please let me go!"

The guy sneered and said, "Let you go? Do you think this is a vegetable market where you can buy whatever you want and leave whenever you want? I'm telling you, if you don't have money, don't even think about leaving this door!"

After saying that, he hit Tong Husheng hard with a stick a few more times, causing him to groan in pain.

Tong Husheng was extremely desperate, he knew that he was really doomed this time.

He wondered why he was so unlucky. He finally found a way to make money, but ended up like this.

"You have to find someone to redeem you, or you will die in this mine and no one will know!"

"Then let me make a phone call!"

Tong Husheng was so scared that he called Lao Wu immediately!

Lao Wu was scared when he heard it!

But he couldn't just stand by and watch them die, so he tried to communicate with the people in the mine. Since Lao Wu was a local, he naturally knew some people in the mine!

After some communication, they finally said they wanted 20,000 yuan!

They won't give in if the price is lower than 20,000, and Lao Wu is helpless!

"Old Tong, I have no other choice. I have already bargained down the price to this extent for you. Anyway, I have no money left!"

Lao Wu said that Tong Husheng also knew that it was impossible for him to let Lao Wu pay to redeem himself!

"Or, can you help me call my daughter?"

"Yes, doesn't your daughter work for a big company? I heard from you that she is the secretary to the board of directors. It should be useful to call her!" said Lao Wu!

"I don't want to trouble her, but this time there is really no other way, I can only try!"

After the two of them discussed it, they prepared to call Tong Luoluo!

Tong Luoluo didn’t know that the call was from Tong Husheng, so she naturally didn’t refuse the call!

"Hello!"

"Hello, is this Luo Luo?"

"you are?"

"I'm Uncle Wu. Do you remember me? When you were four or five years old, you came to my house. You're the Uncle Wu who runs the hardware store!"

"Oh? Uncle Wu, are you okay?"

After Lao Wu confirmed that it was Tong Luoluo, he started talking about this matter!

"Your father has been detained in the mine, and now they need 20,000 yuan to release him. I just want to ask..."

"Uncle Wu, is this a new scam?"

I didn’t expect Tong Luoluo didn’t believe it!

This made Lao Wu anxious!

"Lolo, I really didn't lie to you!"

"I've heard this kind of trick many times. Don't worry, I won't give you any money!" Tong Luoluo hung up the phone after saying that, which made Lao Wu very embarrassed!

Lao Wu was stunned for a moment when he heard the busy tone on the other end of the phone. He didn't expect Tong Luoluo to hang up the phone so directly, and he didn't expect her to suspect that this was a scam. He scratched his head and looked at Tong Husheng helplessly.

"Lao Tong, what should we do? Your daughter doesn't believe it!" Lao Wu sighed.

Tong Husheng also had a bitter look on his face: "Oh, what should I do? Luo Luo is usually very smart, why is it that this time..."

The two were just worrying about it when Lao Wu suddenly slapped his forehead and said, "Oh, I have an idea! Let's send her another text message, explain the situation in more detail, and attach a few photos or something, then she should believe it!"

When Tong Husheng heard this, he thought it was a good idea and quickly nodded in agreement.

So, Lao Wu began to edit the text message, telling the whole story of Tong Husheng's arrest from beginning to end, and attached a few photos taken from outside the mine. He tried to make the situation as detailed and true as possible, hoping to impress Tong Luoluo.

After the message was sent, the two of them fell into a long wait. Tong Husheng was in a state of anxiety, worried that his daughter would not believe him and that she would not be able to raise the money.

After a long while, Tong Luoluo's reply finally came.

"Your photo-editing skills are not good enough, stop fooling around!"

As a result, Tong Luoluo's words made them even more devastated!

"Lao Tong, it seems that she will only believe it if you call her in person!"

"Old Wu, I don't know if this will work!"

"How will you know if you don't try?"

Lao Wu said!

So this time they planned to let Tong Husheng call Tong Luoluo in person!

Lao Wu handed the phone to Tong Husheng, signaling him to call Tong Luoluo immediately. Tong Husheng took the phone, feeling uneasy and his hands were shaking slightly.

He took a deep breath and dialed Tong Luoluo's number. While waiting for the call to be connected, he felt his heart beating faster, as if it was about to jump out of his chest.

The call was finally connected, and Tong Luoluo's voice came: "Hello, who is this?"

Tong Husheng's eyes moistened instantly when he heard his daughter's voice. He tried to control his emotions and said in a calm tone, "Lolo, it's me, Dad."

Tong Husheng gritted his teeth and told the story of how he was detained at the mine.

"Dad, it's not the first day I've known about your behavior. I'm not surprised that you can make up all kinds of excuses just because you're short of money. You've cheated me hundreds of times over the years, and this time you teamed up with others to cheat me again. You've disappointed me so much!"

Tong Luoluo still didn't believe that anything happened to Tong Husheng!

"This time it's true!"

"I don't believe it. You should solve your own problems. You have brought me so much pain, and I haven't said anything yet!" Tong Luoluo said!

Tong Husheng's heart skipped a beat when he heard his daughter's words. He knew that he had really disappointed his daughter this time. He opened his mouth, wanting to explain, but he didn't know where to start.

"Lolo, Dad knows that I have done a lot of wrong things in the past and have disappointed you. But this time, Dad is really being detained in the mine. They said that they will not let me out if I don’t pay. I... I really have no other choice." Tong Husheng's voice was trembling and pleading.

Tong Luoluo felt mixed emotions when she heard her father's words. Although she had some complaints about her father, blood is thicker than water after all, and she didn't want to see her father really fall into trouble.

"Dad, how can I believe you? Every time you say you are in trouble, but in the end you lie to me." There was a hint of helplessness and disappointment in Tong Luoluo's tone.

Tong Husheng was silent for a while, then said: "Lolo, if you don't believe me, you can ask Uncle Wu to video call you. He is waiting outside the mine. Ask him to see if I am lying."

Tong Luoluo thought about it and felt that this method was feasible. So she asked her father to hand the phone to Lao Wu and prepared to have a video call with him.

As soon as Lao Wu received the call, he quickly explained to Tong Luoluo: "Luolu, your dad really didn't lie to you this time. He was indeed detained at the mine. Those people said that they would not release him unless you get the money. You also know that your dad is usually a little unreliable, but he is really in trouble this time."

Tong Luoluo looked at Lao Wu in the video and believed it a little. After all, Lao Wu was her neighbor when she was a child, and she had a good impression of him.

"Uncle Wu, why didn't you call the police?" Tong Luoluo asked.

Lao Wu sighed and said, "Luo Luo, you don't know. The situation here is very complicated. Calling the police may not be helpful, and it may anger those people, which will be even more detrimental to your father. Therefore, we can only try our best to raise money to redeem your father."

Tong Luoluo listened to Lao Wu's explanation and began to waver. Although she didn't want to believe her father's words easily, she didn't want to see him really fall into danger.

"Then...how much money do you need?" Tong Luoluo asked.

Lao Wu quickly said, "Twenty thousand yuan, Luo Luo, can you think of a way? Your father really needs this money."

Tong Luoluo was silent for a while, then said: "Okay, I'll try my best to think of a solution. But you have to promise that this money is really used to save my dad."

Tong Luoluo knew that even though she hated him now, she couldn't bear to see him buried in a mine!

Twenty thousand yuan was not a difficult sum for her to come up with, but as a girl, she was a little scared to go to such a dangerous place!

"Rong Yu, I want to ask you to do me a favor!"

"Lolo, you tell me, I will definitely help you as long as I can!" Rong Yu did not refuse and agreed directly!

"This matter may be a little dangerous, I want to explain it to you clearly!" Tong Luoluo said!

When Rong Yu heard Tong Luoluo say this, his heart skipped a beat.

He knew Tong Luoluo's character. Although he seemed strong at ordinary times, he actually had a fragile side inside.

Since she said that this matter might be dangerous, there must be something happening that makes him worried.

"Lolo, don't be anxious. Tell me slowly what's going on." Rong Yu's tone was gentle but firm. He wanted to give Tong Luoluo a sense of security.

Tong Luoluo took a deep breath and said slowly: "It's my dad. He was detained in the mine and the other party wanted 20,000 yuan to release him.

I would like you to go with me and help me deliver the money."

After Rong Yu heard this, his brows knitted. He knew that places like mines were often full of people of all kinds and full of dangers.

But when he looked at Tong Luoluo's eyes that were full of worry and expectation, his heart couldn't help but soften.

"Lolo, I know this is difficult for you, but have you really thought it through? It's a place like this, let's go alone, just in case something unexpected happens..."

Before Rong Yu could finish his words, he was interrupted by Tong Luoluo.

"Rong Yu, I know there are risks, but I can't just watch my dad being detained in the mine.

He is my father after all, I can't just stand by and watch him die.

Besides, I believe in you. I will feel much more at ease with you around."

Tong Luoluo's tone was firm and earnest, making it impossible for Rong Yu to refuse.

Rong Yu was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, Luo Luo, I'll go with you. But we have to be careful and follow my instructions in all actions."

Tong Luoluo nodded gratefully. She knew that Rong Yu did this out of his concern and love for her.

She felt warm in her heart, and at the same time, she became more determined to rescue her father.

After the two discussed the plan, they began to prepare for action.

Tong Luoluo withdrew 20,000 yuan from the bank and put it into an inconspicuous cloth bag.

Rong Yu prepared some necessary equipment just in case.

The next morning, the two drove to the mine.

Along the way, Tong Luoluo was nervous and anxious. She kept asking Rong Yu various questions, wanting to know more about the mine.

Rong Yu answered her questions patiently and comforted her, telling her not to worry too much.

Finally, the car stopped at a remote corner near the mine. After getting out of the car, the two carefully observed the surrounding environment.
