Chat? Since when did having a chat require one side to be tied up?!’

“If you wanted to talk with us, you should’ve just come back home. Why go to so much trouble?” Father Bei continued speaking calmly.

“I had no choice.” Shi Sheng had a ‘helpless’ expression on as she shrugged. “As an orphan, I neither have the power nor backing to invite myself over to your house. How would I be able to see you anytime I want? So I could only go for the next best thing.”

Father Bei, “…” ‘Isn’t the Fu Family your backing now? Would you be able to kidnap us so easily if not for them?’

“Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to you guys.” Shi Sheng waved her hand. “After all, you guys are influential people. Of course I wouldn’t dare to just randomly kill you off.”

Hearing Shi Sheng’s words, Father Bei heaved a sigh of relief. ‘It’s fine as long as she doesn’t harm us.’

But before he could relax, he heard the young woman in front of him mutter, seemingly to herself, “At the very least, I should livestream it. That’d live up to your worth.”

Father Bei nearly puked blood.

‘We really raised an ingrate! Even a dog would’ve been tamed if it were fed and clothed for the number of years we’ve spent taking care of her!’

“You think you can run, bitch?! Our disappearance will get the police here soon, just wait for a lifetime in jail! The thing I regret the most is bringing you back home back then!”

“Tsk tsk, Mr Bei, are you sure you’re just going to let your wife prattle on? If she succeeds in pissing me off, I won’t be able to guarantee your lives anymore.” Shi Sheng laughed gloatingly. “Anyways, I don’t actually mind if you don’t stop her. Should I offer your wife as sacrifice to my knife? What do you think, Mr Bei?”

“You dare!” Father Bei burst out. “What do you want?! Just tell us!”

Shi Sheng paced a couple of circles before a sinister smile bloomed on her face. “I’m waiting for someone to bring over what I want. However, sitting around doing nothing like this is too boring. Shall we play a game in the meantime?”

“Bei Zhi, don’t be rash! Whatever you want, as long as we have it, we’ll send it to you!”

‘It should’ve already been 2 hours since we were kidnapped, right? The police should know by now. As long as we stall for time, we’ll be saved!’

Father Bei signalled his wife to keep quiet and let him talk to preoccupy Shi Sheng. The girl, however, ignored his offer. “Don’t worry, it’s just a little game.”

“You should’ve seen something similar on TV. The rules are simple. You guys just need to pick from two choices: a) He lives and she dies, or b) She lives and he dies. Easy, right?”

Shi Sheng took out her phone and fiddled with it for a while before shifting the two a distance away from each other. After making sure the two of them couldn’t see each other, she held up the phone in front of Father Bei.

“Come on now, ladies first. Make your pick, Mr Bei.” On the screen of the phone, there were pictures of him and his wife with numbers over them. Below was written: Whoever you pick, dies. Only say the number.

‘Ladies first… then why am I the one picking first?!’

“Bei Zhi, why don’t you tell me what you really want?” Father Bei’s gaze shifted from the phone’s screen as he attempted to change the topic. He’d have to be crazy to participate in this perverted game!
