Found 100 Million In My Rented Apartment Chapter 2106: What a Big Heart!
Previously on Found 100 Million In My Rented Apartment...
The next day. The first rays of sunlight passed through the broken windows of the adobe house and landed on Ye Feng’s face.
He opened his eyes and saw Zhang Youting sleeping soundly in his arms. She curled up on his chest with a satisfied smile on her lips. Her long eyelashes cast a faint shadow in the morning light.
The two of them were exhausted after the previous night. In the end, they held onto each other and fell asleep in the corner of the adobe house.
Ye Feng gently pulled his arm out and sat up.
His clothes were scattered all over the floor, and he picked them up and put them on one by one. His movements were very light, but Zhang Youting still woke up.
"Uh..." She rubbed her eyes and looked at him sleepily. "President Ye, you’re awake..."
"Sleep a little more." Ye Feng covered her with his jacket. "I’m going outside to get some fresh air."
Just as he walked out of the adobe house, his phone rang.
It was a number from the Sun Never Sets Empire.
Ye Feng looked at the time. It should be midnight over there. It was probably not good news, a call at this time.
He picked up the phone.
"Ye Feng..." Anjou Prince’s voice was very tired, filled with guilt and unease. "I’m sorry... I-I don’t know how to tell you..."
Ye Feng’s heart sank. "What happened?"
There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, and then there was a suppressed sob.
"The Sotheby Auction House’s cargo plane... It was robbed." Anjou Prince’s voice was trembling. "It took off from Fog City yesterday afternoon and was originally scheduled to arrive in Guangzhou this morning. But during the flight... It was hijacked by a group of militants and forced to land in Myanmar."
Ye Feng tightened the grip on his phone.
"What’s on the plane?" He asked calmly.
"The goods from Sotheby’s Auction House...including the ’Along the River During the Qingming Festival’ that you bought, and some of the treasures that you previously stored with me..." Anjou Prince’s voice became softer and softer. "It’s worth about three billion yuan..."
More than three billion.
Ye Feng closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
"Who hijacked the plane? Any clues?"
"Not yet." Anjou Prince’s voice was full of self-blame. "The plane is Sotheby’s own cargo plane. The crew is all their people. The hijackers were very professional and blocked the plane’s communication signal. By the time we discovered the problem, the plane had already landed in Myanmar."
"What’s the official stance of Myanmar?"
"They... they’re evasive." Anjou Prince smiled bitterly. "They said that it’s a no-man’s land, an area controlled by the local warlords. They are powerless."
Ye Feng did not speak.
He stood at the door of the adobe house and looked at the distant mountains that were faintly discernible in the morning fog. His eyes were very cold.
"Ye Feng, I’m sorry..." Anjou Prince’s voice sounded like she was about to cry. "I didn’t arrange it properly... I should have arranged for more people to be on the plane... I..."
"It’s not your fault." Ye Feng interrupted her. "The other party came prepared. We couldn’t have defended against them."
He paused and softened his voice. "Don’t blame yourself, and don’t put it on yourself. If there are any clues, tell me immediately. I’ll handle it."
"But..."
"Be good." Ye Feng’s voice was very soft, but it was unquestionable.
There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, and then Anjou Prince’s heavy breathing could be heard. "I trust you. I’ve already used all my connections to investigate. I’ll let you know as soon as I get any news."
"Alright."
After hanging up the phone, Ye Feng stood on the spot without moving.
The Anjou family’s antiques were worth more than three billion yuan.
Along the River During the Qingming Festival.
There were also a few treasures that he had stored with Anjou previously and was preparing to bring back to the Dragon Country.
It was all gone.
"President Ye?" Zhang Youting’s voice came from behind him.
She had already put on her clothes and walked out. Her hair was still a little messy, but her face was full of concern. "You don’t look too good."
Ye Feng turned around and looked at her, and he suddenly smiled.
"It’s nothing serious." He said casually. "It’s just that some of the antiques that I got in the Sun Never Sets Empire got robbed. They were hijacked to Myanmar along with the plane. About three billion worth."
Zhang Youting opened her mouth wide.
"How, how much?" She thought she had heard wrong.
"About three billion." Ye Feng shrugged. "But it’s alright, I can handle it."
Zhang Youting looked at him without expression, her mind blank.
More than three billion... robbed... can handle it?
How big a heart did he have to be to say such words in such a tone?
