"Alas! What I mean is..."
"You really shouldnât have come back!"
Boss Yan gently shook his head, sighing deeply.
"Big Brother, come back with me to see Dad!"
Yan Ya said, giving a signal to the four bodyguards next to her.
The four bodyguards understood and immediately nodded, pulling out electric batons, cautiously approaching Boss Yan and his companions.
Faced with these four tall and strong bodyguards, Boss Yan and his companions remained calm.
Especially the one who was Bald with a Beard, who even wore a smile.
Seeing this, Yan Ya suddenly felt a bad premonition in her heart.
Just as she prepared to step back, a Yan Family bodyguard next to her right suddenly turned around.
The man drew a dagger from his sleeve, lightly pressing it against her collarbone.
"Miss Yan, knives arenât something to be trifled with."
"If you move recklessly, this knife might just cut your pretty face!"
The Yan Family bodyguard said with a smile.
This scene left the other three Yan Family bodyguards dumbfounded.
Whatâs going on here?
How did someone else suddenly betray them?
"You three, hurry up and throw the electric batons on the ground!"
Boss Yan said expressionlessly.
The three bodyguards looked at each other, unsure of what to do for a moment.
"Quickly! Otherwise, Iâm going to cut this womanâs face!"
The armed bodyguard shouted coldly.
In desperation, the three had to drop their electric batons and surrender.
"Smart choice!"
Bald with a Beard chuckled, stepped forward, and used the belts to tie the three together.
"Big Brother, weâre back!"
Just then, a black SUV suddenly entered the cemetery forcefully.
A short, thin man and a man with a perm opened the car door and jumped out.
"Whereâs Third Brother?"
Bald with a Beard glanced behind the thin man, frowning and asked.
"Third Brotherâs truck had a small issue, itâll take a bit longer."
"But Big Brother, I brought you a gift back!"
The thin man said while pulling open the rear car door.
Then, he dragged two people out of the back seat.
An adult and a child, it was Song Qing and Qingyue.
"Mom!"
Seeing Yan Ya held at knifepoint, Qingyue called out worriedly.
Upon hearing the call, Yan Ya was slightly stunned.
Bald with a Beard rubbed his bald head a few times, looking at Yan Ya, asking: "Is this Ms. Yanâs daughter?"
"Humph!"
Yan Ya snorted lightly, not answering.
"Hehe! I like feisty ones like this!"
The armed bodyguard next to her chuckled lecherously.
"Thatâs my niece who refuses to acknowledge her ancestry."
Boss Yan looked at Qingyue and said with a smile.
"Everyone whoâs supposed to come is here."
"Even those who shouldnât have come, are here too!"
Bald with a Beard shook his head and said, "Since everyone is here, letâs take them all with us."
"Taking this many people isnât convenient, right?"
"Wasnât our initial plan just for this gold-threaded cedar coffin?"
"Now that we have it, why take these people?"
Boss Yan asked in confusion.
"I plan to use Miss Yan and Miss Qingyue as bargaining chips to squeeze a few million from your father."
Bald with a Beard replied with a smile.
Hearing this, Boss Yan instantly showed anger: "This isnât what we planned!"
"And didnât we agree only to take the coffin, not to harm our Yan Family people."
"Hahaha!"
Bald with a Beard couldnât help but laugh after hearing this.
His eyes were full of mockery as he said slowly: "Brother Yan, plans canât keep up with changes!"
"So, Iâm informing you now, the plan has changed!"
"You..."
Just as Boss Yan was about to burst out, a dagger pressed against the spot behind his heart.
"Brother Yan, better keep it down!"
The man with black-rimmed glasses said as he slightly moved the dagger forward.
The sharp tip pierced through the thin clothing, closely pressing against the skin.
"How could you... how could you?"
Feeling a chill behind him, Boss Yanâs face turned pale with shock.
"Why couldnât we? Ever heard of the term backstabbing?"
Bald with a Beard gently patted Boss Yanâs shoulder, sighing: "Brother Yan, youâre truly a rich young master, unaware of how sinister people can be!"
"Today, let your little brother give you a lesson!"
As they spoke, a large truck drove into the cemetery.
"Third Brother is here, time to get to work!"
Bald with a Beard secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Although tonightâs plan had some unexpected elements, the task was ultimately completed.
And it was overachieved.
If everything goes smoothly from here, then the brothers could acquire a huge fortune unimaginable even in their dreams.
As the truck parked, the man with black-rimmed glasses and the thin man first tied up Boss Yan and the others.
Song Qing was tied together with the three Yan Family bodyguards.
These four were worthless to them and they didnât plan on taking them along.
Meanwhile, Boss Yan, Yan Ya, and Qingyue were tied together.
They were all Yan Family members, highly valuable.
Especially Yan Ya, who was the head of Yan Group, and surely could yield a substantial ransom.
Next, this group started operating the excavator, slowly lifting the gold-threaded cedar coffin into the truck.
Yan Ya glanced at Qingyue beside her, who was pursing her lips, tearing up but pretending to be strong, and she couldnât help but have a flash of anger in her eyes.
She turned to her big brother, angrily rebuking: "Look at what youâve done!"
"I...I was forced into a corner, too!"
Boss Yan never expected that he, being the mastermind behind the scenes, would suddenly become a hostage.
"What sort of âcornerâ forced you?"
Yan Ya gritted her teeth and questioned.
"I owe a few million in gambling debts outside, I had to pay up!"
Boss Yan said with an embarrassed look.
"Youâre still gambling?"
Hearing this, Yan Ya was so angry she almost gritted her teeth to powder.
Indeed, gamblersâ words couldnât be trusted!
Previously, Boss Yan had lost over ten million in one night gambling.
At that time, it was father who took money and people to redeem him.
Although he was redeemed, Boss Yan had several bones broken.
Father had warned back then, if he continued to gamble, heâd be kicked out of the house, erased from the family registry.
Boss Yan knew he wasnât capable, without the Yan Family background, he might have ended up begging on the streets.
So he quickly promised father never to gamble again in his life and so forth.
But can a gambler truly change?
On the surface, Boss Yan didnât dare gamble, but in private, he often sought people for games.
Fortunately, the wins and losses werenât too much, so father turned a blind eye.
But who could have known, Boss Yan would hit such a low point but make a remarkable comeback!
Even amassing more gambling debt outside, and this time, it was in the millions!
Yan Ya wished she could slap her big brother in the face a few times to vent her rage and frustration.
