The reason for the kidnapping of Jubaoge became clear the very next morning.
My Mom called to say that my paternal aunt and eldest cousin had come to our house the night before, begging me to get the cousin's husband out of trouble.
It was only after my Mom questioned them that we found out: last week, Juyan had driven us out in his Mercedes-Benz, and the cousin's husband had spotted us. He assumed I’d latched onto a wealthy divorcé with a child. Since he was short on cash, he followed us all the way to Yuncheng and plotted with a few of his lowlife cronies to kidnap the "wealthy man's child" to make some easy money.
