The Shen family mansion in Hong Kong, nestled in a luxurious villa on the hillside, was brightly lit and bustling with guests.
Miss Shen, dressed in a well-tailored evening gown, moved among the guests like a dazzling star. In her hand, a crystal-clear wine glass swirled with deep red liquid, reflecting her proud yet gentle smile.
Today is the Shen family's annual family banquet, and also a day to remember – the Shen family has just successfully acquired a batch of invaluable ancient porcelain through a small-scale purchase. Each piece contains profound historical and cultural value, and its worth is immeasurable.
Miss Shen didn't care at all about that country bumpkin from the mainland in Binhai. So what if he knew she had taken this batch of porcelain?
There wasn't a single person with a pass, so he swam over to retaliate?
He couldn't even get through the gate of the Shen family's house.
Therefore, there is absolutely no need to worry about retaliation.
Throughout the entire Shen family compound, whether servants or family members, everyone's face was filled with joy, as if the air itself was thick with the spirit of celebration.
Old Master Shen, dressed in an exquisite Tang suit, with his hair neatly combed, wore a kind and satisfied smile, clearly feeling extremely proud of the family's successful acquisition.
However, amidst this celebratory atmosphere, there was a small regret—Shen Zihao, the youngest grandson of the Shen family, did not attend tonight's grand banquet.
As one of the most outstanding members of the new generation of the Shen family, Shen Zihao shoulders the important responsibility of inheriting the family business. At this moment, he is far away on the mainland coast, personally inspecting and investing in an important project.
While ostensibly inspecting projects, he was secretly picking up girls, since there are some differences between mainland and Hong Kong beauties.
Although he couldn't be there in person, he sent his heartfelt wishes across mountains and rivers to his grandfather through a carefully prepared express delivery.
Miss Shen was always filled with curiosity and admiration for her younger brother. She personally took the tightly wrapped express box from the waiter and walked briskly toward Old Master Shen, her heart full of anticipation.
She also wanted to know what kind of unique gift her younger brother, who always brought surprises to the family, would present this time.
But the moment she carefully opened the package, an unpleasant smell wafted out, as if something had exceeded its shelf life.
Miss Shen frowned slightly, a hint of doubt arising in her heart.
Grandpa Shen, however, maintained his warm smile, his eyes filled with love and anticipation for his grandchildren. He said softly, "Come, let's see what wonderful treasures Zihao has brought us."
As the delivery box was fully opened, everyone's attention was focused on the gift.
The entire Shen family was stunned when they saw a dark, foul-smelling arm inside.
The old man plopped down on the ground; he was terrified.
There was also a CD inside.
Miss Shen brought over the disc and put it on the DVD player to play. Fortunately, the Shen family still had these things, otherwise they really wouldn't have been able to read the disc.
What's this younger brother up to?
Is this a surprise?
Open the disc.
As soon as the video opened, I saw a group of robbers tying up Shen Zihao and taking him to a place. Then, the scene changed, and a scream was heard, with blood all over the ground.
Then the kidnapper's face appeared, a masked face.
"Old Master Shen, hello there. Get your money ready. We'll send some gifts today, and tomorrow we might send a corpse. Don't try anything funny, or you'll never see Shen Zihao again!"
The disc playback ends here.
Kidnapping?
Shen Zihao has been kidnapped?
Kidnapped by a group of kidnappers from mainland China?
Miss Shen was also extremely shocked. She knew that the mainland was in chaos, but she never expected that even a member of the Shen family would dare to be kidnapped.
Soon, a mysterious phone call came in.
They went straight to the old man.
"Prepare a billion, or your grandson won't see the sun rise tomorrow."
The call ended as soon as I finished speaking.
The whole family was stunned. What was supposed to be a nice family banquet to celebrate the Shen family receiving a lot of benefits was actually a shock.
As a result, the Shen family was kidnapped.
"I still have some connections on the mainland. If they want to kidnap members of my Shen family, let's see how powerful those kidnappers are."
Old Master Shen stood up and said angrily.
Do you still want the Shen family's 1 billion?
Who gave them the guts?
Miss Shen was stunned. Was this a direct confrontation?
What will happen to my brother's safety if we anger the kidnappers?
Those people are capable of anything.
I am very worried about my younger brother's situation.
As for one billion, that certainly can't be taken out casually. If it were, the kidnappers' appetite would only grow bigger.
If the safety of the hostages could be guaranteed, some money might be given, but this amount is impossible.
The Shen family's money is hard-earned. It's not that the Shen family doesn't have a billion, but they can't open that door. Otherwise, anyone could kidnap a member of the Shen family and demand a billion!
Old Master Shen immediately called the Binhai City Public Security Bureau, demanding that they solve the case within twelve hours, or the Shen family would withdraw all their investments!
Then I called my old friends in Beijing and asked them to put pressure on me.
The Shen family has a very extensive network of connections on the mainland and knows many people in the government. Those people who dared to kidnap Shen Zihao have picked the wrong person!
Go to Beijing.
At this moment, Director Wang hurriedly reported back. Although he was only the director of the National Museum, he was of a very high rank and had the opportunity to meet important figures from Beijing.
Director Wang tearfully complained about the Shen family's outrageous behavior, saying they were now embezzling so many national treasures!
These were all donated to the country by one of the Zhang family members.
He spent four billion US dollars.
Director Wang wasn't being honest; he simply increased the price several times over.
It was all to draw the attention of those above.
I had just finished complaining to some departments in Beijing when news of the Shen family reached Beijing. It wasn't that they wanted to donate that batch of cultural relics, but that someone from the Shen family had been kidnapped on the mainland!
Kidnapping?
The kidnappers now demand 1 billion.
The Shen family has a lot of investments in mainland China, and now that the eldest son of the Shen family has been kidnapped, this is a very important matter.
However, considering the Shen family's various actions, many people now feel that they deserved their fate.
However, since it is a kidnapping case, it should still be taken seriously.
It is currently a coastal area.
Dongshan and his gang came to the pigsty to check on Shen Zihao.
The Shen family has already been instructed to prepare the ransom. If the money is paid, the person can be released safely.
If the Shen family tries anything funny, they shouldn't blame me for being ruthless.
A group of people walked into the pigsty and immediately saw several sows, but Shen Zihao was nowhere to be seen.
Several henchmen came over with sticks and struck the sow directly on the body. The sow let out a few screams and moved a couple of times.
A group of people looked inside. Where was everyone?
Where is Shen Zihao?
Where did it go?
