He Shen was wearing a thin white shirt with purple-red wine staining his chest, which suddenly became translucent and almost completely visible. It was obviously very indecent in such a formal occasion today.
He stepped back, dodging the other's hand, but his shirt was ruined.
"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!" The person on the other side apologized repeatedly, "It's all my fault for not looking where I'm going. I'll compensate you for your clothes!"
"What's going on?" A servant-like man came over. After seeing He Shen's clothes, he hurriedly said, "Master, go back to your room and change your clothes. I'll help you with this."
He Shen glanced at the servant. He had some impression of this person. He was indeed one of the servants hired by Jiang Xingze not long ago. He nodded and said, "I see. You can handle it."
He Shen immediately turned around and went upstairs. When he reached the second floor, he suddenly found that a window at the end of the corridor was open. This window was usually closed and almost never opened.
He subconsciously felt that something was wrong and stopped in his tracks.
"rustle--"
He Shen suddenly heard a strange noise. He hesitated for a moment before walking forward and looking out the window. The next second, he felt a pain in the back of his neck.
A sharp pain came over him, his eyes went dark and he fainted on the spot.
Before he fainted, he saw the servant holding a vase and sneering expressionlessly.
The next second, He Shen fell into deep darkness.
……
When he woke up again, he found that he was no longer in the Jiang family's ancestral home. He quickly realized that he must have been knocked unconscious and taken away.
That was the Jiang family's ancestral home and also Jiang Xingze's birthday party. As Jiang Xingze's highly publicized successor, he was knocked unconscious and taken away in such an occasion.
It was really interesting. He Shen lowered his eyes and recalled what he saw and heard before he fainted. The window that opened inexplicably, the servant who raised the vase and hit him, and even the glass of red wine that was poured on him. Everything was very clear.
This is not a rigorous and comprehensive plan. Something could go wrong at any link. The planner is obviously desperate and can no longer consider so many things.
He Shen looked around and found that this was a completely enclosed room without even a window and of course no furniture. There were only some miscellaneous items piled up in a mess. He was tied to a pillar with hemp ropes, and his hands were tied behind his back.
where is this place?
Due to the lack of windows, He Shen was unable to determine the surrounding environment. He could only smell a damp and musty smell in the air. This room had obviously been unused for a long time. In addition, there seemed to be a faint smell of the sea.
Smell of the sea?
He Shen frowned slightly and quickly remembered something. A few years ago, He Ting suddenly became fascinated with sea fishing. He would go fishing with his business partners every now and then, so he spent a lot of money to buy a boat that could go out to sea.
He had gone out to sea with He Ting several times, but He Ting's fishing skills were not very good. Every time, he, the companion, caught fish one after another, but the protagonist He Ting got nothing. After this happened several times, He Ting was no longer addicted to sea fishing.
However, He Ting did not sell the boat immediately. He was too concerned about his reputation. If he gave up sea fishing and sold the boat because his son beat him in fishing skills, where would he put his face if the news got out?
Although the maintenance cost of the ship was very high, for He Ting at that time, it was just a small amount of money and he just spent it.
But He Ting is obviously short of money recently. Even if he still has money, he will not spend it on the maintenance of a boat that will not be used at all.
Just as He Shen was thinking quickly, the door of the room suddenly opened and a person walked in.
He Shen looked up and found that it was He Yuan, his nominal brother, holding a cell phone.
That cell phone is his. It must have been found during the body search.
"You don't seem surprised at all?" He Yuan couldn't help but ask when he saw that He Shen had woken up but was not as panicked as he had imagined.
"Why should I be surprised? I've already guessed it." He Shen said calmly, "You guys are desperate and will definitely do something desperate."
"What nonsense are you talking about! What do you mean by desperate? What do you mean by desperate?!" He Yuan was immediately annoyed and angry, "Our He family is still the top wealthy family in Ningcheng! Quick! Call Jiang Xingze now!"
"Call? What call?" He Shen raised his eyebrows.
"I told you to call Jiang Xingze! Just hit him!" He Yuan ordered loudly, "What situation do you think you are in now? You have been kidnapped by us! Your life and death are in our hands. If you dare to refuse, we will kill you!"
He Shen looked at He Yuan and asked, "What do you want me to say to my uncle?"
"Uncle? You call me uncle now?" He Yuan sneered, mocking and jealous, "You are really taking advantage of me. You are obviously a bastard, yet you are so shameless..."
"Ning Shen" is nothing more than He Ting's illegitimate son, but Jiang Xingze recognized this son on behalf of his sister and even wanted to hand over the Jiang family to him. Why? !
It’s obvious that “Ning Shen” is just an illegitimate child like him...so why can’t he?
He Shen smiled and said, "It looks like you are very jealous of me."
"Jealous of you?" He Yuan's expression suddenly twisted. "How could I be jealous of you? What am I jealous of? You are an illegitimate child who has never been acknowledged by my father, a bastard who has never officially entered the He family. I'd be crazy to be jealous of you!"
He Shen looked at He Yuan with pity: "That's all you have, right? But unfortunately, I don't care about what you said."
He Yuan was stunned, as if he didn't expect that He Shen didn't care about these things at all. He subconsciously wanted to refute, but then he realized that He Shen really didn't seem to care. He opened his mouth wide, but couldn't say anything to refute, and his face turned red.
But soon, he came to his senses and sneered, "Don't try to stall for me! I told you to call Jiang Xingze right now! Tell him to come back with 50 million to redeem you before 12 o'clock tonight! Otherwise, I'll kill you!"
Without waiting for He Shen to speak, He Yuan continued, "Don't call the police or tell anyone else. If you call the police or let anyone else know about this, we will kill the victim immediately!"
He Shen paused for a moment before slowly saying, "Fifty million?"
"What's wrong with 50 million? Do you think Jiang Xingze can't raise the money in a short time? For Jiang Xingze, it's just 50 million, there's no way he can't come up with it, right?" He Yuan laughed coldly, "Or to him, your new nephew is not worth 50 million?"
He Shen shook his head: "Of course I'm worth 50 million. My ransom is not much, let alone 50 million."
He Yuan: “…”
He Yuanyun said calmly: "Since you have already asked for such a high price, why not be bolder and ask for 500 million directly."
