Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 1230 – Bargain

But even knowing so, Feng Tianlong didn’t want his daughter to die. Even if she could live on for another day happily, Feng Tianlong was willing to sacrifice his life for it.

“Stop yelling!” The man didn’t expect Feng Xiaoxiao to say this and immediately shouted at her to shut up. He glared at her and fumed, “Shut your mouth!”

“Dad, I love you, I will be your daughter in my next life too… Tell my husband Lin Yi for me that I love him too. If there’s a next life, I’ll still be his small wife… Tell Tang Yun sis and… No, don’t cover my mouth…” Feng Xiaoxiao struggled.

“Who told you to say that?” The man grabbed a towel and shoved it into her mouth, making her unable to talk.

The man finally picked up the phone with a dark face after shutting her up, feeling frustrated. What the hell, why were there people who were not afraid of dying? He was an exception as he was a death warrior, but was Feng Xiaoxiao one too?

The man felt like his lungs were going to explode from anger. The situation was in his favour but Feng Xiaoxiao’s fearless words made him nervous!

“Feng Tianlong, now you can confirm that your daughter is in my hands,” The man sounded oppressive, “This girl watched too many heroic movies and she’s stupid. You won’t watch your daughter die, would you?”

“Let me think about it,” Feng Tianlong sighed, “I cannot make a decision alone, your second head in charge has been handed over to Yanjing and I need to ask for instructions from my superiors!”

“I don’t care if you can make a decision or not, I need a result!” The man allowed no explanation, “I’ll give you two hours, it’s more than enough for you to negotiate with them! If there’s no result in two hours, I will set off the bomb and die with your daughter! Of course, I will die too.”

“Wait, two hours is too tight, it’s not working hours right now and I can’t promise that they will give me a result within two hours!” Feng Tianlong stopped the man from hanging up.

“Fine, I’ll give you more time, three hours.” The man nodded. He didn’t care how long it took, as long as Feng Tianlong negotiated with them genuinely, he didn’t mind giving him more time. He came here knowing that he would die and he wasn’t afraid of Feng Tianlong at all.

“Five hours,” Feng Tianlong looked at his watch and said, “I’ll give you an answer within five hours! You know that I don’t want my daughter to die and I must buy as much time as possible to get it to work!”

“Deal!” The man heard Feng Tianlong’s words and felt slightly more relieved. Time wasn’t a problem since Feng Tianlong was trying to buy more time for him, it just proved that he didn’t want to give up on his daughter’s life and he wanted to save her. The man became happier as he was previously a little afraid that Feng Tianlong didn’t care about Feng Xiaoxiao.

The man stopped speaking and hung up the call.

“Ha-” Feng Tianlong let out a long sigh and felt upset. Especially after hearing what his daughter said, he almost wanted to stop everything and just cry. How mature was his daughter? She didn’t want to put him in a difficult position and she was actually ready to die!

But how could he watch her die?

“Team leader Feng, we’ve checked his location. He is at Qianhua Shui’an district, building A-19. We are not sure which level he is on but our investigators have arrived there and inspecting the signals. I believe there will be a result soon!” Li Yifeng reported the current news to him.

“Understood. Little Li, follow up on it and report any new information!” Feng Tianlong nodded. The man obviously didn’t care if they investigated his position or not and he assumed that they would be able to lock on his phone’s signal soon.

But what could they do even if they knew where they were? The man wasn’t afraid of dying and as soon as he died, the bomb will go off. He was an untouchable hedgehog! Feng Tianlong couldn’t arrange a sniper to assassinate him, and in fact, he had to make sure that the man was safe!

Otherwise, his daughter could die and the entire building will be destroyed. Feng Tianlong knew where Qianhua Shui’an was, it was one of the more luxurious districts in Songshan, all the people who lived in it were either wealthy or noble. If there was an explosion there, it would have a heavy impact!

Feng Tianlong couldn’t make a choice and he also had no choice but to report to his superiors. It was too big, he didn’t want to let the man go but if he didn’t, the outcome would be severe, so only the bureau chief could make the decision!

“Chief Xia, I’m Feng Tianlong…” Feng Tianlong reported miserably.

Over the phone, Chief Xia didn’t give him an answer immediately but told him to evacuate everyone from the building first, he will then conduct a meeting and figure out a solution.

“Little Feng, don’t be too worried. Don’t worry, I personally wouldn’t want anything to happen to Xiaoxiao. She’s you and Susu’s only child and Susu was an old special agent here, I must let her rest in peace,” Chief Xia comforted, “But I can’t make the decision for the entire investigation office, I must discuss this with the others!”

“I understand, Chief Xia, I will obey the final decision no matter what!” Feng Tianlong said.

“Mhm. Don’t think too much. Time’s running out, I will conduct a meeting right now!” Chief Xia said.

Feng Tianlong hung up the call and laid back in his chair, solemn and sorrowful, looking as if he had aged in just one day

“Team Leader Feng, don’t be so worried. Perhaps you can give brother Lin a call? Perhaps he’ll be able to do something?” Li Yifeng suggested.

Li Yifeng knew what Lin Yi was capable of. He wasn’t only skilled in medicine, but he was skilled in kung fu too. Last time, the second head in charge of Red Conches was arrested by Lin Yi so perhaps he could do something about it.

“Hm, we need to tell him about this. He is Xiaoxiao’s boyfriend after all,” Feng Tianlong nodded and picked up his phone.

If it were yesterday or before yesterday, perhaps Feng Tianlong wouldn’t think about telling Lin Yi about it since Lin Yi had only promised to pretend to be Xiaoxiao’s boyfriend.

But after Lin Yi’s treatment towarads her yesterday, Feng Tianlong understood that Lin Yi had really fallen in love with Xiaoxiao and didn’t treat himself as her fake boyfriend. Tang Yun generously acknowledged Xiaoxiao, making Feng Tianlong surprised and happy, yet also troubled as he was aware of the burden on Lin Yi.
