Meng Yizhou was not completely indifferent to Lan Tian. He was still very worried about her.
"She's gagged and won't respond to you," the gruff voice said. "All right, both your families will have to spend money. Let's do this. I'll give you a chance. One of you, go get the money. The other stays as a hostage."
"Where do we get the money?" Meng Yizhou asked.
"Get it at the foot of the mountain. Are you going or is Lan Tian?" The man's voice was sinister and terrifying.
Meng Yizhou quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind. The more likely it was that those who stayed behind would be killed when they encountered such kidnappers.
Those who got out had a better chance of survival.
If one had to go out, then he would definitely go out himself.
He said, "I'll go out and get it."
"Are you sure?" the man asked. "I think it would be better if Lan Tian picked it up."
