I don’t know how Jiang Zhiyuan felt about this scene, but Feng Zhongliang felt mixed emotions.
The moment Tang Jing, played by Jiang Se, appeared, Feng Zhongliang turned to look at Jiang Zhiyuan. He stared at him without blinking, as if he didn't notice Feng Zhongliang's gaze.
His expression was somewhat gentle, and under the dim light of the movie screen, his gentleness radiated from the inside out, softening the lines of his brows and mouth corners.
At this moment, Jiang Zhiyuan was no longer a terrifying bandit. He watched very attentively. He did not lean against the back of the chair, and even leaned forward slightly, watching his daughter's performance intently.
Through movies, he became the only connection between him and Jiang Se.
In "A Glimmer of Hope", Cheng Jianguo, played by Liu Ye, was forced to join the plan of kidnapping Tang Jing and extorting a ransom when he had no other options. After careful deployment, the group quickly succeeded.
From the appearance of Tang Jing, played by Jiang Se, to the time of the kidnapping, Zhang Jing'an only touched on the subject and did not spend a long speech to elaborate, but instead focused on what happened after the kidnapping.
When Tang Jing fell into Cheng Jianguo's hands and was taken out of the Tang family by a group of people, Feng Zhongliang no longer had the heart to see Jiang Zhiyuan.
In fact, in addition to Jiang Zhiyuan, Feng Zhongliang is also planning to watch this movie seriously.
He knew that Feng Nan had suffered at the hands of Jiang Zhiyuan after being kidnapped. If it weren't for his timely rescue, Feng Nan would have almost lost his life.
Falling into the hands of a man like Jiang Zhiyuan, he could imagine what Feng Nan had been through, but she never said anything.
In the movie, when Cheng Jianguo and his group dragged Tang Jing roughly out of the car, Feng Zhongliang clenched his fists on his thighs. Perhaps the young Feng Nan had also been treated like this at that time.
In the dim cabin in the woods, Tang Jing curled up into a ball. She was still wearing the dress she wore to her birthday party, with her head buried in her knees. If she wasn't still shaking and one of her toes, which had lost its shoe, was tightly gripping the ground, everyone would have thought she had fainted.
"The Tang family is rich. How much can they give for this girl?"
Thomas grabbed Tang Jing's hair and dragged her from the shadows to the light, and with a force of his arms, he forced her to look up.
The camera moved from top to bottom, capturing Jiang Se's entire face clearly.
Her pale face appeared on the screen. Due to extreme tension and fear, the hairs on her face stood up. Under the light, her pupils were dilated and seemed to have lost focus.
She didn't even dare to breathe deeply. She clenched her teeth and inhaled small gulps of air through the gaps between her teeth.
Just by looking at Jiang Se's face, you could tell that she was terrified.
After the premiere of "A Glimmer of Hope" at the French Film Festival, Jiang Se's acting skills received unanimous praise from many film critics, but in Feng Zhongliang's opinion, he knew that she was scared.
This is a movie that has a different meaning to Jiang Se. When she was filming, she couldn't help but put herself into her real feelings when she was kidnapped.
When Cheng Jianguo stretched out his fist towards her, she closed her eyes and endured it without saying a word. She was so scared that she was already in a state of aphasia. Even though Feng Zhongliang knew that this was just a movie and it was not real, he was still strangely angry because Jiang Se, who played the heroine, was his granddaughter who had been kidnapped.
This movie has a different meaning for Feng Zhongliang because of the re-enactment of the kidnapping scene. He seemed to see Feng Nan after she was kidnapped that year, and the deathly silence and helplessness on her face.
The kidnappers demanded a ransom, and the Tang family fell into a dispute.
The scenes of that year, as the plot developed, gradually flooded into Feng Zhongliang's mind.
He still remembers that year, Zhongnan Industrial had just been listed and the family business was at a critical stage of development. He was extremely busy. He had a lot of work to do every day and had to work fifteen or sixteen hours a day. He was so busy that even sleeping and resting were an extremely luxurious thing for him.
The Feng family was wealthy and had many descendants. The name of Hong Kong Zhongnan Industrial was already the leader in the industry at that time.
He had a lot of social engagements. That day he attended a charity dinner and negotiated the purchase of a piece of land. Feng Zhongliang had been eyeing that piece of land for a long time. For this piece of land, the work team of Zhongnan Industrial had been working with him for a long time without sleep. After finally getting the land, he happily drank a few glasses and returned to the Feng family. It was already past eleven o'clock.
The house was quiet. At that time, Xiao Liu asked the housekeeper Yingjie to make some sweet soup for him to soothe his throat.
When the servant brought the sobering tea to the study, he seemed to have remembered something and spoke to him:
"Mr. Feng, this afternoon, Ah Xiang received a package. I don't know who sent it, but it asked the young master to sign for it."
The Feng family is a wealthy and powerful family, and every year they receive a lot of miscellaneous things like this. Most of them are dealt with by the servants. Occasionally, some things that are left behind are handed over to Xiao Liu to take care of these matters.
But at that time Xiao Liu was downstairs giving instructions to the housekeeper, and Feng Zhongliang somehow had someone deliver the package.
The package was light, as if it was made of just a layer of cardboard. When Feng Zhongliang got it in his hand, he shook it gently. There seemed to be something small inside, and it made slight sounds as he moved.
I guess it was just someone's prank.
If Feng Zhongliang had not seen the words cut from newspapers on the cardboard box, which formed the Feng family's address, phone number and Feng Qinlun's name, he might have thrown it away long ago.
Because he found these words pieced together from different old newspapers, Feng Zhongliang instinctively felt that something was wrong and subconsciously tore open the package.
Inside were three small fingernails with dried blood on them. After being in the box for several hours, the flesh on them had shrunk and the nails had lost their healthy and beautiful color.
This is clearly a nail that was forcibly pulled out. Judging from the size and shape of the nail, it looks like it belonged to a child.
There was also a short "letter" in the package, which was pieced together and read: One hundred million to redeem Feng Nan.
Feng Zhongliang was sobered up instantly.
He was so shocked that he immediately called Xiao Liu and asked him about the whole process of receiving the package, but the servant of the Feng family could not explain it clearly.
I only remember that I received the package seven or eight hours ago, and Feng Zhongliang was busy with social engagements and not at home.
Feng Nan's mother had an appointment to play cards with someone. She had been out since the morning and had not returned for ten hours. Feng Zhongliang asked Xiao Liu to call her, but she was still at the card table. After knowing that something had happened at home, she was still making excuses, saying that she would finish this round first. (To be continued)
