The young man was really too good, everyone present thought so. He was completely unlike the son of that bitch Ren Yanqing.

Ren Yanqing is a cruel and ruthless person, and he always treats people with a condescending arrogance every time they meet. He obviously looks down on everyone like them working at the bottom.

Moreover, their conscience has been eaten by dogs long ago, otherwise they would not have been owed their wages for three years.

But the young man is as clean and simple as a piece of white paper, well-behaved and obedient. Even though he is Ren Yanqing's son, even though their identities are completely opposite, people can't help but feel a little softer.

This is probably because teenagers always lose their memory and cannot remember those dark things. They are no different from children.

No, he is much better behaved than a child.

Genes have a great influence on children. Many children are born evil, but they just restrain their evil in the process of growing up.

But the boy seems to be born very well-behaved, even if he loses his memory, he is still very well-behaved.

It's really hard to believe that Ren Yanqing's selfish genes could give birth to such a son.

But he's a little too squeamish.

How did the cruel Ren Yanqing raise such a son?

Zhou Jinchen looked at the young man who thought the dark basement was too dark and wanted to turn on the lights, and took a deep breath, "What are you waiting for? Do you think this is..."

Ruan Qing looked at Zhou Jinchen and blinked innocently, listening to him seriously, his wet eyes filled with intimacy.

Zhou Jinchen's words suddenly changed. He said with a straight face, "Do you think our family is rich?"

"I'm too poor to pay the electricity bill."

This is a newly built building. Because of Ren Yanqing’s wage arrears, the previous batch of workers had quit working, and the building was temporarily unfinished.

So there is no power at all, and naturally the lights cannot be turned on.

And Zhou Jinchen was telling the truth. Even if he could turn on the lights, he would be so poor that he couldn't even pay the electricity bill.

Ren Yanqing has not been paid his salary for three years.

As long as they have money, no one will choose to take the risk to kidnap this young master.

Zhou Jinchen's tone became a little colder when he thought of this, "There is no electricity, so just stay like this."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked out, his back looking very ruthless.

It's just that he didn't notice at all that his ugly words had changed, nor did he notice that he said the words 'our family'.

It was as if he had subconsciously considered Ruan Qing's mood.

That is something that has never happened before.

Ruan Qing looked at Zhou Jinchen's heartless back and opened his mouth slightly. Finally, he pursed his lips in grievance and did not say the words that he was afraid of the dark.

Ruan Qing's grievances were visible to the naked eye, because his wet eyes were even more wet, and his whole person was dull and looked pitiful.

It makes people want to hold him in their arms and give him everything he wants.

He doesn't belong in this dark basement to begin with. He should live in a beautiful villa and get everything he wants.

He also seems to be born to be held in someone's hand, and the person holding him is willing to give everything to him.

But the lights really can't be turned on here, not because there is no money to pay the electricity bill, but because the building has not been completely built yet, so naturally there is no power line installed.

If you want electricity, you have to get it from outside.

As construction workers, they need electricity everywhere on the construction site, so they can naturally do simple things like pulling on electricity.

But the young man only stayed here for half an hour. Maybe they would have gone back to his villa before they finished pulling the electricity.

What's more, the boy was a hostage they kidnapped to threaten Ren Yanqing into giving him money. They had no obligation to meet his demands.

For a while, everyone had different expressions, no one said anything, and they silently followed Zhou Jinchen out of the basement.

After the sun set in the west, it set much faster. It disappeared from the sky in ten minutes, leaving only a trace of afterglow shining on the clouds.

The entire land began to become dark, and the already dark basement became even darker, so dark that it was almost impossible to see clearly what was around.

There are chairs in the basement. The chairs are dirty and used by workers to step on while working.

Ruan Qing sat on the only chair, the thin white fingers on his knees clenched uneasily, and his slender body tensed up.

He was alone in the basement now, and it was so dark that he could only see the outlines of certain things, which was very unreal.

But if you look closely, it seems like something is moving.

There seemed to be some strange sound.

There was a rustling sound, like the chirping of insects or some kind of crawling sound.

It sounds a bit creepy.

And he always felt that the sound was getting closer and closer, as if something was approaching him.

Ruan Qing's thin fingers squeezed a little tighter, and it started to hurt, and a layer of tears filled his eyes.

He looked fearfully in the direction of the door, stood up and wanted to go out to find his father.

But as soon as Ruan Qing stood up, he remembered his father's words, 'just stay like this', and he sat back stiffly, not even daring to find the light switch in the room.

It must be because he was disobedient before that daddy didn't like him.

Ruan Qing was a little sad and a little scared. He curled up on the chair uneasily, hugged his knees with his hands, buried his head in his knees, and curled up into a ball.

As if this could give him a sense of security.

I don't know how much time passed before the sound of "squeak-" sounded.

It was the sound of the basement door being pushed open.

Ruan Qing's slender body trembled after hearing the sound. He raised his head and looked at the door nervously.

After the door was pushed open, a little light from the outside came in, and a tall figure slowly walked in.

Because the basement was too dark and the man was facing the light, Ruan Qing could only make out a general outline and couldn't tell who the man who came in was.

He couldn't tell whether he was his father or not.

Ruan Qing was extremely nervous, and his whole body tensed up, for fear that some bad guy would come in.

Fortunately, when the man came in, he found that the basement was too dark, so he took out his cell phone and turned on the flashlight.

The dark basement was instantly illuminated, and Ruan Qing could clearly see the person coming in through the reflection.

It was the man who was standing not far from dad before.

The man who is with daddy will definitely not be a bad person, Ruan Qing relaxed a little.

Because there was light in the basement, Ruan Qing was no longer so uneasy. He looked up at the man walking towards him, with a trace of doubt on his delicate face.

He seemed to be wondering why the man came in.

There were hundreds of workers at the construction site, but only five were involved in the kidnapping.

Zhou Jinchen, Yan Lulin, Duan Ming, Luo Haodong, and Xu He.

Luo Haodong is the person responsible for kidnapping the boy. In order to get rid of those who are following him, he has not returned here yet.

The most dangerous place is the safest place. No one thought that they would hide people directly in the basement of this unfinished building.

After all, because of Ren Yanqing's wage arrears, workers often come and go here, and some new workers continue to work here.

So they don't stand out at all here.

As long as the boy doesn't run out of this basement, no one will think that he is hiding here.

The man who came in was Xu He. He walked slowly to the chair, and then looked down at the young man sitting obediently on the chair.

When he saw the young man's reddish eyes and wet eyes, Xu He's eyes darkened a bit.

But because the flashlight's light was shining on the ground, Xu He's eyes could not be clearly seen clearly, nor could he see the trace of aggression.

Xu He lowered his eyes to hide the look in his eyes. He squatted down in front of the young man and said in a gentle and steady tone, "Are you afraid of the dark?"

Ruan Qing paused for a moment. Although he didn't know why this man came in, he still nodded honestly, "I'm afraid."

After Ruan Qing finished counting his head, he looked around uneasily and whispered, "I feel like there is something terrible in the dark that will take me away."

"Don't be afraid." Xu He reached out and held Ruan Qing's hand on his knee, as if to comfort Ruan Qing.

"I'm here with you."

The light from the mobile phone did not shine directly on Ruan Qing, so Ruan Qing did not feel dazzling. Instead, the light gave him a sense of security.

Ruan Qing blinked at the big hand holding his, and showed a faint smile to the man, "Thank you."

Because of the light, Ruan Qing is usually in the light, half hidden in the darkness, with a kind of flickering beauty, which makes his delicate face even more beautiful.

In addition, when he smiled, his long eyelashes trembled slightly, and the light and shadow hit his eyes, making him look as beautiful as an angel who had strayed into the world.

The beauty is breathtaking.

It's so beautiful that time is willing to stand still for him.

Xu He's pupils shrank slightly, his heart skipped a beat, and there was a hint of excitement in his eyes.

The young man and he were from two different worlds, but the young man's beautiful eyes were looking directly at him at this moment.
