Chapter 286 Kidnapping
```
"I haven't seen anyone suitable recently, and they are all devoted to their research. They wouldn't be interested in this sort of thing, so you'd better recruit externally."
Zhou Kongshan also found this matter quite troublesome.
The people here generally love their research, so it's unlikely they would leave this place.
Going out to recruit people or sell things, either way.
Lin Yi had no choice but to transfer people from elsewhere.
"Alright, then you keep busy. I'm keeping watch here. We did have a lot of visitors today."
"Fine, I'll hang up first."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Yi looked around the empty room and felt a severe headache.
What should he do next? He couldn't possibly keep watch here every day.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
So he still needed to find some other people to help him.
Meanwhile, Director Zhao wasn't idling. He was continuously searching for ways to deal with Lin Yi.
He had already instructed his subordinates that if those idiots couldn't handle it, then he would just have to fire all of them.
He wasn't giving them so much money just to let them eat for free.
But now he had an even more troublesome issue at hand; his scandal with Han Xuemei had spread everywhere.
What if his little goddess found out about this?
"Damn it! Why did Han Xuemei that crazy woman have to yell all over the office? Didn't I give her enough money? What's she dissatisfied with after being with me? Does she really think I would fulfill those sweet nothings I said before? As soon as there's a better option, I'd certainly dump her."
Because Director Zhao hadn't gotten Ling'er yet, he didn't dare to quickly say goodbye to Han Xuemei yet.
He still quite liked Han Xuemei's personality and looks.
If he lost Han Xuemei before securing Ling'er, Director Zhao felt that the loss would outweigh the gain.
After all, he had also spent a lot of money on Han Xuemei.
On the other side, Director Zhao's men had directly gone to Lin Yi and Han Xuewei's apartment.
There, they encountered the nanny.
Upon seeing intruders, the nanny panicked and grabbed her phone to call Lin Yi.
But they harshly grabbed her, slapped her, and then snatched the phone away.
"I warn you, you'd better behave. If I find out you dare to call the police, I'll kill you. Now, you're only allowed to send a text to Lin Yi, telling him, his three children are with me. If he doesn't come to see me, then I can only express my regrets for those three children."
Seeing that these people meant business, the nanny could only oblige and send Lin Yi a text message as instructed.
Lin Yi was in the middle of his worries when he heard the ring of his phone and immediately looked down to check.
He didn't expect it to be such a matter.
"These guys really did come looking. Director Zhao wouldn't want to have a life-and-death struggle with me, would he? I shouldn't pose such a big threat to him now."
Lin Yi grumbled to himself and drove back in a hurry.
But when he returned, he only found the nanny unconscious on the floor, and his children were nowhere to be seen.

He didn't dare to tell Han Xuewei about this matter.
Otherwise, Han Xuewei would definitely be very anxious at school, and Han Xuewei couldn't help anyway.
So Lin Yi planned to solve the problem by himself before telling Han Xuewei, or maybe not to tell her at all.
Lin Yi arrived at the designated spot, the abandoned warehouse.
"I really didn't expect you to come alone. I thought you would bring some backup. But it doesn't matter now. Lin Yi, if you have to blame someone, blame yourself for hurting our boss. Though I don't know why someone like you would foolishly offend our boss, those who have offended our boss have never had a good ending!"
These thugs were very arrogant under Director Zhao's protection; they had always had it easy.
But it was Lin Yi's arrival that had made their situation difficult.
Director Zhao would no longer indulge them as before and wouldn't give them generous sums of money.
Moreover, Director Zhao had made a fierce declaration, if they couldn't deal with Lin Yi this time, then none of them should expect to get a single penny.
Even their families would be implicated.
This time, they were staking everything on killing Lin Yi to eliminate future threats for their boss.
"I never intended to offend your boss. Right now, I don't even know who your boss is. Maybe you'd like to tell me?"
Lin Yi stepped closer to them, step by step, and for some reason, they began to fear this man who had come alone to the meeting.
But they quickly dismissed the thought. He was just one person, and they had at least ten. Why should they be afraid of one man?
"Stop! Stay right there, don't come any closer, or if you take one more step forward, I'll have your three kids call out to you down below."
One of the thugs spoke up, holding Lin Yi's three children in his arms.
The three kids were very young, all at the stage of learning to speak.
The sudden catastrophe made them cry their eyes out.
The ruffians were also getting a bit irritated by these children.
They even hit the children's backs roughly a couple of times, which made Lin Yi's face turn dark on the spot.

These guys seemed to be rushing towards their deaths.
Lin Yi had already thought of a way to deal with them.
"Didn't you ask me to come? Now I'm here, can you let my three children go? They're still small and should pose no threat to you, right? Can you put them aside? If you have any problems, let's talk it out between ourselves."
Before coming, Lin Yi had already sent his location to his partners, who would be arriving soon.
At that time, it wouldn't be clear who would be begging for mercy, so now Lin Yi needed to buy time.
"They are my means of threatening you. I'm not that foolish to put them aside. How can I threaten you then? Besides, we know about your strength. Weren't you very powerful? Why can't you show your strength now?
Take that small knife over there, and stab it into your leg."
This also counted as avenging their brother, who had been deeply humiliated by Lin Yi!
"Fine, but don't you dare do anything rash. If even a tiny bit of harm comes to my children, I will make you pay a severe price!"
Lin Yi's face was cold as he picked up the small knife nearby, and then fiercely plunged it into his own thigh without even letting out a cry.
It seemed as if the three children could sense their father's condition, and they stopped crying.
What do you think?
