A few minutes later, screams rang out from room 2012 on the second floor of the motel, followed by several gunshots.

When all the noise died down, Xu Taiping and Lu Danmin walked out of the room.

Inside the room, a few kidnappers were lying on the floor. Xu Taiping had just called the police, and it wouldn't be long before the police arrived.

For Xu Taiping, the only thing that was hard for him to do in order to save Lu Daming was to find the robbers. As long as he found the robbers, everything would become simple.

Lu Daming followed Xu Taiping outside. He was still a bit muddle-headed, and he had not expected Xu Taiping to suddenly appear and quickly defeat all the robbers, even saving him.

Earlier, Lu Daming was already in despair, because the robbers had already planned to tear up the votes, saying that his father refused to pay the ransom of twenty million dollars. He did not expect that Xu Taiping would appear and save him while the robbers were discussing how to deal with his corpse.

That feeling, Lu Daming had never been able to describe it in detail throughout his entire life. He only felt that his hands and feet were trembling. Half of it was because of fear, and the other half because of excitement.

Downstairs, Xu Taiping found the robbers' car.

"Get in." Xu Taiping said as he got into the driver's seat.

Lu Daming quickly got on the first passenger seat, and the two of them headed towards the direction of Luo City.

"Bro Xu, thank you." Lu Daming turned to look at Xu Taiping, only now did he regain his composure and have the strength to thank him.

"A small matter." Xu Taiping waved his hand and said, "You didn't bring any bodyguards tonight?"

"Yes, but only one. There were three bodyguards before that." Lu Daming said.

"Then how did it become one?" Xu Taiping asked.

"That woman said it would be a waste to bring three bodyguards." Lu Daming said.

"Oh? That woman? " Xu Taiping raised his eyebrows.

"She's my dad's wife. I'm an illegitimate child. My mom was my dad's secretary." Lu Daming explained.

"So that's how it is!" Xu Taiping was enlightened.

"I heard my dad wasn't going to pay the ransom, was he?" Lu Deming asked.

"This is your father's pressure on the Luo City police. If it really comes to that, he wouldn't be able to avoid paying the ransom." Xu Taiping said.

"Come on." Lu Daming smiled helplessly and said, "How could my dad be willing to pay 20 million dollars for me? Even if he was willing, his wife wouldn't be willing. 20 million dollars, one hundred and 300 million yuan in RMB is too much."

"Don't think too much. You are safe now." Xu Taiping said.

"Sigh!" Because of the joy of being saved, his heart had actually become much calmer at this time.

Xu Taiping didn't say anything more, every family had their own problems. Lu Daming seemed to be living a good life abroad, but looking at the situation of his family, he was being exiled. His family didn't care too much, so what was the use of living a life like this even if there was a lot of material resources? Furthermore, his father wasn't even willing to pay a ransom of twenty million dollars for him.

Xu Taiping didn't want to say anything more, because saying too much would touch the weakest part of a person's heart.

Xu Taiping brought Lu Dazhong back to Luo City and went straight to the police station.

The police were naturally very happy that Lu Daming was being saved. After all, he was from Hua Xia, so if they were to tear the vote, they would also have to bear the pressure. Seeing that Lu Daming was safe and sound, that would be for the best.

After making a statement at the police station, Lu was released.

As soon as Xu Taiping and Lu came out of the police station, Xu Taiping had already informed them that Jennifer, who was waiting outside the police station, and Jennifer's team of interviewers had surrounded them.

The kidnapping of Lu Daming caused quite a stir in the Chinese community. Other than the Luo City Police Department, many people were actually concerned about this case and were nervous about him, especially when they heard that his father, Lu Kang, did not plan to pay the ransom. Other than the nervousness, many of them felt pity for him.

Xu Taiping had thought of this matter himself. This Jennifer was also called over by him.

In Xu Taiping's opinion, he was still far away in the country, working for the movie. If during the film's promotion, he had bravely broken into the tiger's den to save a foreign student who was kidnapped in China, then that would be worth writing about.

Before, Xu Taiping had felt that he had to keep a low profile, but this time, the more he promoted the movie, the more attention the film would receive, so he wouldn't give up any chance to hype up himself. Before he entered the police station, he had contacted Jennifer and told her what he thought.

Jennifer was naturally willing to report this matter. The kidnapping case had caused a huge reaction in the Chinese community, and it could be said that, if someone tore off Lü Da Min's votes, it would definitely cause a huge commotion in the Chinese community, and if Xu Tai Ping went alone to save Lü Da Min, it would definitely move many people. This kind of heroic spirit would definitely move Lü Da Min a lot of people, and when the time came, it would also bring up a few matters related to the movie.

This would benefit Xu Taiping, as well as the entire film crew.

Thus, it was only natural that Xu Taiping and Lu Daxin would accept Jennifer's interview. Xu Taiping seriously described how he had risked his life to save Lu Daxin, while Lu Daxin was on the side to testify for Xu Taiping that everything Xu Taiping had done was true.

The interview ended after half an hour. Jennifer quickly left with the materials and people under her command. They were prepared to give it to the television after the editing had finished.

Around 9 PM.

Xu Taiping brought Lu Daming to the Kyle and Mos Hotel.

At this time, the news about Lu Daming being saved had already reached here. However, when everyone saw that Lu Daming was basically safe and sound standing in front of everyone, everyone burst out in cheers.

The kidnapping of Lu Daming did not cause any waves in the white people's society. However, in the entire Chinese society, countless Chinese people were worried about him. Now that he was fine, it was only natural for them to be excited and happy.

The banquet officially started around 9 PM.

Everyone cheered. At that time, Great Min Lu had completely recovered and quickly threw this matter to the back of his mind. He started to play with the other Chinese people around him.

"You've done a good thing this time." Guo Yunpeng stood beside Xu Taiping and said, "This year, there have been a total of six kidnappings. Only this one was exposed and the culprits were all caught. This will definitely shock some people."

"En!" Xu Taiping nodded, and said, "Why am I not paying 20 million as ransom for Lu Da Min this time? I am personally going to save Lu Da Min so that I can let those who have ill intentions towards the Chinese know that although we are overseas, we are not easy to bully."

"It's really hard for you, the police don't even have any news about those people, and you already know where they are hiding, amazing!" Guo Yunpeng praised.

"That's nothing." Xu Taiping smiled and said, "I just have a lot of friends."

"I envy you!" Guo Yunpeng said seriously, "I don't have many friends, and there's even a portion that needs my help so I'm my friend. I really wish I could have more friends, the older I get, the fewer friends I have."

"Friends are in essence, not in quantity." Xu Taiping said.

"You're right!" Oh right, don't forget about tomorrow's party! " Guo Yunpeng said.

"I can't forget anything about tomorrow's party!" Xu Taiping said with a smile.

One night passed in the midst of fine wine and delicious food.

The matter of Lu Daming's kidnapping was quickly forgotten.

Their capture had largely stabilized the hearts of Luo Cheng's Chinese citizens, because they did not catch any of the previous five kidnappings. Many people suspected that the bandits were from the same group, but now, in the sixth kidnapping, the kidnappers were caught. If the bandits were from the same group, then there would not be a seventh kidnapping after this.

Although Xu Taiping had only saved a single person, just like Guo Yunpeng said, he had calmed the hearts of many Chinese.

In the dead of night, everyone dispersed.

Lu Daming did not leave in a hurry. After everyone had left, Lu Daming found Xu Taiping by himself.

"I forgot to ask you today …" You … Why did you spend so much effort to save me? " Lu Deming asked.

"Why? Let me ask you, why did you help me before? " Xu Taiping asked.

"Because we are all Chinese." Lu Daming said.

"Me too, because we are all Chinese." Xu Taiping smiled as he patted Lu Daming on the shoulder and said, "People are strangers in a foreign land, so everyone should help each other when they leave the country."

"Understood, thank you!" Great Min Lu nodded solemnly at Xu Taiping.

"You're welcome!"

The night passed in silence.

Xu Taiping didn't rush to find Quinn. He waited until noon of the second day before taking a taxi to Third Avenue.

It was still in the house.

It was still in that room.

The room was still filled with smoke.

"I've already done what I had to do. Now, it's your turn, Mr Xu." Quinn laughed as he asked Xu Taiping.

"I will naturally do what I've promised you." Xu Taiping smiled, "However, I must wait until my trip is over before I can fulfill our agreement."

"No rush." "In a week's time, the underworld of the entire Mi Nation will have a meeting of the underworld. At that time, aside from the underworld gangs, the arms dealers, the drug lords, these people will all appear. At that time, Rockefeller will leave his nest, and you, will have enough time to prepare.

"I will."
