Chapter 127 Captain, over here! (1/2)

”What's your name, kid?”
”Ji Jingxu. You?”
”Ting... I'm Gu Ting.”
Jingxu looks at Ting. He was confused. Even at a time like this, he still wants introduction? And kid? Ting doesn't look that much older than him..
Ting laid on the cold floor. He was in a lot of pain from his broken leg and with both his hands tied behind his back, laying down was all he can do. Also, it wasn't such a bad idea too. He looks at Jingxu and furrow his brows.
Ji....
”You're from 'that' Ji family?”
”Mm.”
Jingxu nod his head, ”My grandfather is General Ji.”
”Heh, you're pretty lucky kid. To be born from a good family, I'm sure your grandfather has already sent a search party for you.”
Like a closed wound had suddenly open, Jingxu stare at Ting with pain. He knows how it feels to lose all hope in mankind and envy those rich kids.
Because, he wasn't born rich... he was just lucky to have met the old couple back then...
”I'm sure my grandfather will rescue us.” Then remembering something, his eyes held a tinge of hope, ”There's still hope, my Jie, she is back, so she will definitely find us.”
Ting looks at Jingxu, then back to the ceiling.
Rescue... save... hope...
Were those words even an option for him to hold on? His parents... what kind of world is left for him?

*claaaash!*
Upstairs in the warehouse, a glass of wine was thrown onto the ground.
”What did you say?!”
The middle aged man grab one of his subordinate's shirt, ”You're telling me that woman's dead?!”
”Y-Yes. She's been dead for an hour now.”
”Fuck!!!”
The middle aged man loosens his grip and stumbles backwards, falling onto his chair.
How disgusting was this? He was fucking a dead woman! Shit!
”Throw both their bodies in the wood. The animals can clean up this mess.”
”Yes boss!”
The subordinate quickly leaves the room, who knows what his boss will do.
Massaging his temple, the middle age man pours himself a glass of wine. Remembering something, he reach for his phone and calls someone.
After a few rings, someone answers from the other line.
”I have two innocent lives in my hand. If you want them alive, bring 10 billion yuan to the same place.”
