Chapter 647

“My wife is in their hands . “

When he heard Lu Tingxiao’s words, the minister exclaimed, “What?! The audacity of these people!”

Lu Tingxiao was one of America’s most important investors and he had a close relationship with the American government . Now that his wife was actually kidnapped within the borders of America, if anything happened, the consequences would be . . .

However, the situation in Philadelphia was complicated . A single tiny move would cause a great ripple . It was only half a year away to the next elections and he had only wanted to focus on being a politician for the next six months without wanting to take credit for anything else . Who’d have expected something like this to happen?

Lu Tingxiao naturally understood his concerns and assured, “Don’t worry, Minister, I will do my best to resolve the issue in a peaceful way . “

Try his best . . . so, would that exclude the possibility of using violence to resolve the issue?

The minister broke out in cold sweat .

However, this person still had to be saved!

At the American border .

The night was lit up brightly and a loud rumbling sound was heard .

A helicopter slowly descended from the sky .

The door opened and Lu Tingxiao walked out, clad in his tuxedo . Cheng Feng followed behind him . Because the news was too sudden, he had got onto the helicopter as soon as he received the call, not bringing anyone else with him .

In the rural area, the white-haired elder had waited for a long while .

When he saw Lu Tingxiao appear, the elder smiled and walked up to shake his hand . “Mr . Lu, who would have known that something like this would happen? Please do accept my apologies . “

Lu Tingxiao courteously replied, “Minister Naka, my apologies for disturbing you so late at night . “

Usually, he would not trouble the minister because getting too involved with the government was not necessarily a good thing .

But now, he was not sure whether Ning Xi was dead or alive . For such an emergency, he did not care much about politics at the moment .

Minister Naka sighed, “Recently, Philadelphia has been taken over by a group of Italian gangsters . Even though my department has intentions to take them down, the current situation in America is very tense and I have not found the time to deal with it yet . We would never have expected Mr . Lu’s wife to suddenly appear in Philadelphia or that something like this would happen . . . “

Lu Tingxiao was a huge figure in the Chinese business and he had a powerful influence in the economy . At the same time, he was also America’s important investor in several aspects . He had a close relationship with the government and they really valued Lu Tingxiao too .

Rumour had it that Lu Tingxiao also had huge investments in several other countries . His capabilities were extraordinary; he was no ordinary businessman .

Or else, he would not be this anxious in the middle of the night to have a minister personally received him .

If anything happened to Lu Tingxiao’s beloved wife in Philadelphia, his reputation as a minister would be at stake because if this issue caused Lu Tingxiao to hate America and stop his investments, it might even cause other disputes to follow . . . this was a very difficult issue to handle .

Cheng Feng silently followed Lu Tingxiao . All the while, his hand had not stopped working on his phone as he continued to track Ning Xi down .

Even though America was relatively poorer compared to other second world countries, they had a decently-sized military . The power of their military forces came to light especially recently when a war was incited between America and another small country . It was then that many potential investors saw America’s true capabilities .

However, even though America’s military force was not considered small, the economic aspect of it was a headache . After all, especially following a war, they would need even more money to support the troops . America’s economic infrastructure was severely lacking, so they valued big tycoon investors such as Lu Tingxiao .
