Chapter 446: Keep Your Distance

Following the text message, Gu Fan arrived alone at a dilapidated factory. He waited in silence for a moment, but the place remained empty. Unable to resist any longer, Gu Fan spoke out, "Enough, Ning Qi, I know you're hiding nearby. Don't worry, I came alone."

A moment later, Ning Qi stepped out from her hiding place, a smile on her face. "Gu Fan, you truly kept your promise. I knew I didn't misjudge you."

Gu Fan seemed unenthusiastic, "Talk, what have you done to Lin Xi's parents? Where have you taken them?"

Ning Qi answered with a smile, "Rest assured, we're not monsters, we won't harm them for no reason. Lin Xi's parents are safe for now, but if Lin Xi fails to cooperate, I'm afraid I can't guarantee their safety."

Gu Fan frowned at her words, "So what exactly do you want?"

"A simple hostage exchange. Qian Ying in exchange for Lin Xi's parents. Two for one, a fair deal," Ning Qi maintained her cheerful smile. Gu Fan nodded in agreement, "No problem, when and where?"
