"So funny?"

"A snotty nose?"

Chen Yinuo's body trembled as Ye Youyou's small hands wiped the tears from her face.

It seemed the little girl really had taken this kidnapping experience as a game.

Instantly, Chen Yinuo's gaze towards Zhang Jingshan filled with gratitude.

If they hadn't been able to change the little girl's perception of this experience in time, it would have surely become an indelible psychological scar!

"Jingshan, thank you, thank you, thank you!"

Holding Ye Youyou, Chen Yinuo bowed to Zhang Jingshan, repeatedly expressing her gratitude.

"Cough, Sister-in-law, you're being too polite. Saying such things makes me feel like an outsider!" Zhang Jingshan quickly replied.

"Mommy, shall we go take a bath? I want to take a bath, and I want to tell you about the snotty nose and those three funny 'Ultraman bad guys' while I'm taking a bath!" Ye Youyou, held in Chen Yinuo's arms, said excitedly.

"Okay, okay, Mommy will take Youyou to take a bath!"

Chen Yinuo, her tears turning into a smile, touched the tear stains on her face and smiled lightly, as if seeing the sun after the clouds had parted.

Just as Chen Yinuo put Ye Youyou down and took her small hand to walk towards the bathroom, Ye Chen stopped her, "Yinuo!"

They didn't speak.

The couple exchanged a silent glance.

After a moment, Chen Yinuo nodded forcefully. "Yes, don't worry, I'm fine. This was just a game, wasn't it?"

"That's good, go ahead!" Ye Chen grinned.

Watching Chen Yinuo lead the little girl into the bathroom, he turned his gaze back to Zhang Jingshan.

With a serious expression, he said, "Jingshan, thank you!"

"Brother Ye, what are you doing? Sister-in-law just finished saying that, and now it's your turn! Why are you thanking me? If it weren't for you, I, Zhang Jingshan, wouldn't be living this carefree life. So, if you say 'thank you' again, I'll really get upset!" Zhang Jingshan said with a wry smile.

"Okay, I'll keep it in my heart! If you had called me half an hour later, I probably would have had to send the Flawless Cream formula to them. After all, it concerned Youyou, I couldn't afford to gamble, and I didn't dare to gamble!" Ye Chen nodded solemnly.

"Mr. Ye, even if you had sent the email, we wouldn't have let them succeed. Our city bureau's network technicians would have simultaneously sent a virus to their email address. They wouldn't even need to open the infected email. As soon as they opened their mailbox, their computer would be infected, automatically destroying all the files inside. And they would only think it was a problem with their own computer, and wouldn't suspect it was our police's doing!" the policewoman beside them quickly explained.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work!"

Ye Chen nodded, then continued to ask Zhang Jingshan, "Jingshan, where did you rescue Youyou? What's the situation with those criminals now?"

"This..."

Zhang Jingshan glanced at the policewoman, then hesitated.

He clearly didn't want to reveal too much in front of the police.

"Officer Zou!" Ye Chen understood and called to the policewoman.

"Mr. Ye, I'll go make a call outside first!" Officer Zou belatedly realized.

She then strode out of the door of apartment 2102.

"Let's go to the balcony!"

At Ye Chen's suggestion, Zhang Jingshan quickly followed him to the balcony.

"Can you talk now?" Ye Chen asked on the balcony.

"Yes, Brother Ye, it's like this..."

Zhang Jingshan no longer hesitated and told the whole story in detail.

Finally, he said, "Brother Ye, I've had people take care of those four scoundrels! They're buried up to their necks in the grass over there. But I didn't kill them, just buried them up to their necks! Brother Ye, you can decide how you want to vent your anger later. As long as you don't kill them, I'll find a way to take care of everything!"

Phew

Ye Chen exhaled heavily, his expression grave.

After thinking about it, he gave up on using personal means to punish them. There was no need. He would let the police handle it directly.

"That's fine too!" After a slight pause, Zhang Jingshan nodded in agreement.

"Will burying them cause you any trouble?" Ye Chen asked again.

"It shouldn't. Given their audacity to carry out such a kidnapping, as long as I didn't kill them, nothing will happen. The police won't pursue it. To be exaggerated, they might even give me a certificate!" Zhang Jingshan said with a playful smile.

Before he finished speaking, he changed the subject, "By the way, Brother Ye, now that we're talking about it, why didn't you arrange bodyguards for your wife and child? Things are different now. With your current wealth and Yiren Ruxue's current empire, you're bound to attract the attention of all kinds of audacious scoundrels. This time, those kidnappers were just amateurs. But if it had been ruthless desperados who didn't consider the consequences, I really don't dare to imagine what would have happened!"

Ye Chen responded with self-reproach.

"I was muddleheaded. I completely overlooked this kind of danger!"

After saying that, he paused and continued, "Fortunately, heaven took pity on me and gave me a chance to make amends. After this experience, I'm truly scared. Arranging bodyguards for Yinuo and the child is now a top priority!"

"Brother Ye, it's not just Sister-in-law and Youyou, you should also have bodyguards to protect you in the future!" Zhang Jingshan said seriously.

Ye Chen nodded slightly in response.

Before he could continue, the door opened.

Qiqian and the policewoman who had just left walked in.

Seeing Ye Chen and Zhang Jingshan on the balcony, they went straight to the balcony.

"Mr. Ye, the child is back?" Qiqian said quickly.

"Yes, thanks to Jingshan!" Ye Chen smiled faintly.

Having already learned that Zhang Jingshan was the one who took action, Qiqian looked at Zhang Jingshan with a complex expression.

He said, "Mr. Zhang, your abilities are truly surprising. You actually managed to do everything before our police could even act!"

"Captain Qi, you're too kind. Snakes have their own paths, and rats have their own ways. It's just that I've gotten to know a lot of people from all walks of life over the years. With bits and pieces of information from here and there, I was able to piece together a complete picture so quickly!" Zhang Jingshan said.

"Mr. Zhang, do you know how dangerous what you did was? Not informing the police and letting us organize the operation, but instead acting on your own. If you had provoked the criminals, have you considered what the consequences would have been? Of course, I'm not blaming you. I know you were anxious to rescue Mr. Ye's child, but objectively speaking, what you did was extremely dangerous!" Qiqian said with a frown.

Although he didn't yet know the details of Zhang Jingshan's rescue, just the fact that he bypassed the police and acted privately suggested it wasn't done through proper channels.

Although such unconventional methods often have significant effects, they also carry great risks. Once something goes wrong, once the other party is pushed into a corner, the consequences would be unimaginable.

At least, in his career as a police officer, he had seen many cases where things backfired, leading to regret!

However, under his frown, Zhang Jingshan actually laughed.
