Wen Li's jet-black hair was a little messy, her bangs covered half of her face, and her eyes under her thick eyebrows and long eyelashes looked like a bottomless cold pool.
The two felt a chill run down their spines upon seeing this.
"Mom, take Wen Li downstairs first." Wen Sirou's eyes were filled with hatred as she and Zhang Ma dragged Wen Li out of the car.
After entering the house, Wen Li was thrown into a corner of the dusty room.
Wen Li twisted her neck and asked again, "Zhang Zhujin, why was it me who was replaced back then?"
Zhang Zhujin was surprised that Wen Li knew her full name, and a struggle flashed in her eyes for a moment.
"I……"
"Mom!" Wen Sirou suddenly interrupted Zhang Zhujin, her tone unfriendly: "Why are you telling her so much?"
Zhang Zhujin nodded meekly, and immediately lowered her head after hearing this: "Daughter, we can't let things get any worse..."
Kidnapping Wen Li had exceeded her plans, and she was feeling uneasy, feeling that kidnapping Wen Li was not a reliable idea.
Wen Sirou's anger flared up instantly after hearing this: "Then what do you expect me to do? My whole life has been ruined by you! If you and Dad hadn't abandoned me back then, I wouldn't be in this state today."
Wen Sirou couldn't stand her mother's low-class manner.
Whenever I see her, it's as if someone is constantly telling me that if I hadn't switched lives with Wen Li, she would be a child from a poor family.
My mother was a lowly nanny, and my father was a criminal who had been wanted by the police for decades!
Wen Sirou's reproachful tone made Zhang Zhujin feel even more upset, and her eyes instantly reddened.
"We're sorry," Zhang Zhujin said softly, then looked at Wen Li, who had been left in the corner, still unable to bear it. "But murder is illegal. Let's take the money and go back to our hometown to live out our lives. You're such a good student..."
"Shut up!" Wen Sirou couldn't stand Zhang Zhujin saying such things.
She couldn't help but wonder, if Zhang Zhujin was able to be so ruthless as to switch her and Wen Li back then, why couldn't she bear to kill Wen Li completely?
If we had killed Wen Li back then, none of this would have happened!
If she were to live a second life, she would never let her mother hold her back.
She wants the money.
She wants Wen Li's life too!
As she spoke, Wen Sirou took out her phone and took two photos of Wen Li being kidnapped. She then sent them to the phones of everyone in the Wen family using an anonymous phone number.
After sending the message, she threw the phone and SIM card into the bushes outside the window.
Her gaze shifted again, and Wen Sirou looked coldly at Wen Li, whose hair was disheveled, and said condescendingly, "This time, I will definitely kill you first!"
——
Wen family
Four hours have passed since Wen Li went missing.
After Wen Tingsong's car broke down, he called his assistant to come and handle it, and then took a taxi directly home.
But when she got home, she wasn't greeted by her daughter, but by a phone call from Chu Mingtai.
His daughter was openly kidnapped at the school gate!
After reporting the incident to the police, the surveillance footage revealed that the license plate number was fake, the driver was wearing a mask, and there were no clues at all in a short period of time!
The Wen family was completely baffled.
Wen Xingming rushed back from the film set after receiving the news, completely devastated: "How could Xiao Li have been kidnapped? Who did it?"
The elderly father sat on the sofa, his face ashen, completely unable to hear what Wen Xingming was saying.
The two elderly members of the Wen family also came.
Although Qin Hualan was dissatisfied with Wen Li, she couldn't resist the fact that Old Master Wen wanted to come and see her after hearing that his granddaughter had been kidnapped.
As soon as she entered the room, she saw three incongruous solid gold statues on the rosewood wooden table, and the sarcastic remarks she was about to make instantly stuck in her throat.
The whole family was in a panic, but in the end, it was Old Master Wen who remained calm: "Tingsong, have you offended someone recently?"
Wen Tingsong paused for a moment, then shook his head: "I've seen the surveillance video. The kidnapper is a woman, and business people wouldn't go to such lengths."
Wen Tingsong always adhered to the principle of leaving room for maneuver in business so that he could meet again in the future. Although he might offend people in business, the possibility of being kidnapped because of business was very small.
After he finished speaking, everyone fell silent.
It's impossible to figure out who kidnapped Wen Li in a short time.
Ding-dong—
At that moment, apart from the two elderly members of the Wen family, the phones of the three members of the Wen family—father and sons—rang simultaneously.
Everyone was slightly taken aback. Wen Tingsong's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly opened his phone, only to find several photos of Wen Li being kidnapped sent to him via text message.
rub!
Everyone in the Wen family stood up as if their butts were on fire.
After seeing the photo, the kidnappers sent another text message—
"If you want Wen Li to live, prepare 1 billion in advance to be released into the port on cargo ship number seven at 8 o'clock tomorrow."
"If she dares to call the police, I'll kill her right now."
After reading it, Wen Tingsong immediately dialed the number on the text message, but there was no response.
"Contact the bank and prepare 1 billion in cash tonight."
Wen Tingsong let out a breath, knowing that he absolutely could not panic now; at least the kidnappers wanted money, not Wen Li's life.
But a billion dollars in cash isn't something you can just pull out on a whim; you have to negotiate with several banks to get that much money.
Wen Yanchu nodded, but her voice trembled slightly: "Should we tell the police?"
Wen Tingsong remained silent for a long time.
Just when Wen Yanchu thought Wen Tingsong would listen to the kidnappers, Wen Yanchu nodded: "Yes, but we can't show up."
Since the kidnappers won't let us call the police, they might have accomplices monitoring us.
Wen Yan understood and immediately set about doing it.

On the other side, Wen Li sat in the corner watching the third person appear.
The newcomer was a middle-aged man around fifty years old. He wore a striking yellow Taoist robe and a black square-brimmed hat, but these things seemed out of place on him.
The man has high brow bones, his eyes are inverted triangles, and there is a lot of white in his eyes, giving him a sinister look when he looks at people.
These eyes are even more beautiful than Wen Sirou's; you can tell they're related at a glance.
The moment the man appeared, the temperature in the entire room dropped several degrees.
Wen Li and the man exchanged a glance, and Wen Li frowned slightly.
The man in front of me was covered in blood; his hands were probably stained with countless lives.
