"You kidnapped the wrong person, right?" Ling Kongxiang thought that this was the most likely possibility." My family is so poor. How could I be so honored to be appointed by you? You're working for nothing."”Even if she had some money, she couldn't let him know. However, Jing Yue Qi didn't look like the kind of person who would abduct someone for ransom.
The ancients had said it well: one could not judge a book by its cover. The more impossible it was, the more likely it was to happen.
Kidnap her?
"You really think so?"
It didn't seem like it. Since that was the case, it was easy to deal with.
"I really don't want to think so. Then can you tell me why I'm here?”She really wanted to know. Also, the stranger in front of her was about to die. She did not want to get involved in his muddy water.
It was not worth it to be related to a dying person.
"It seems like you don't feel scared at all in this uninhabited place with strangers.”She was still so talkative. Did she think that she was here to play?
She suddenly stopped smiling." What's the use of being afraid?”
That would only make the opponent more arrogant. She would not do such an irrational thing. She might as well build a good relationship with him. That way, the danger would be much lower.
"Since you brought me here without my consent, you must have investigated me. What is your purpose?”Seeing that it was getting late, she did not plan to spend the night in the wilderness, especially with a strange man.
Her serious expression made his heart skip a beat, as if he had seen her somewhere before. She gave him a very familiar feeling.
"Why are you lying in the coffin?" Even in his dreams.
"Are you Young Master Lu's man?" It seemed impossible. He didn't look like that arrogant guy's subordinate.
"Aren't you afraid of being buried alive?" At that time, she wouldn't have the chance to go back on her word.
"How did you move me and the coffin here?”It was impossible for one person to carry such a heavy coffin.
"Are you too stupid or are you trying to commit suicide?”
"If possible, how about you send me back?”
The conversation between the two of them was completely different.
"Why aren't you answering my questions?”Instead, he asked her a bunch of questions that seemed to be mocking her.
"Aren't you the same?" She did not respond to his questions either.
"I learned from you." She was a businessman, after all, so she couldn't lose out.
However, it seemed that he really did bring her here. He did not refute her at all during the question just now.
He snorted and covered her face with the handkerchief.
What was this person trying to do?
She reached out and took off the handkerchief. Her expression was no longer as if no one could bully her. Instead, she frowned slightly and looked a little painful.
"Why did you bring me here?”She sat on the ground dejectedly. At this moment, she was like a doll abandoned by her master, sad and helpless.
Her appearance made his heart ache. He reached out and caressed her delicate and beautiful face.
"You look very similar to a friend of mine. If I hadn't taken you away, you might have been torn into two by now.”With the aura of those two forces, she definitely wouldn't be able to escape.
"Split in half?" Could it be that Lu guy came to rob the funeral? She had no idea that she had fallen asleep.
"Even if you die, there are still people who want you.”It was no wonder that her appearance was so rare and flawless that anyone would want to have her.
"In that case, you want to save me and not kidnap me.”She had completely misunderstood. Fortunately, she had "seemed" to have just now.
She didn't do anything to offend him.
"If you go back now, I'm afraid you won't be able to escape those people.”He would not let her go so easily before he investigated everything.
"Yes." She was just a substitute. She had already gone into hiding. She would be fine if she went back, but she really wanted to take a break.
"Then what should I do? The Lu family won't let me off easily. I'm afraid they'll do something to me.”She covered her face and pretended to cry. As long as she thought about how anxious and busy her father would be after she disappeared, she wanted to laugh. This was good too. She had to act like a dog every time. If she didn't play with it for a while before going back, she would be letting herself down.
Jing Yue Qi seemed to sympathize with her. He had just said that he had " kidnapped " her, so he should have some martial arts background. She would just stay by his side for protection. She would not suffer any losses anyway.
She raised her head and looked at him with her watery eyes. He was a stranger anyway, so he should not know her background.
"You want to follow me?" Her expression made it easy for others to understand what she was thinking, and her thoughts were exactly what he wanted.
"I can understand if it's inconvenient for you.”She tried her best to look pitiful to gain sympathy.
"It's fine to bring you along, but…"
The bright morning was shrouded in a thick white fog, and the sound of water could be heard from the waterfall not far away. Ling Tianhuan, who was sleeping in the wild for the first time in his life, sat up and rubbed his eyes that were a little difficult to open.
The fog that entered her eyes made her unable to see clearly. All she could see was her bed, which was the coffin that allowed her to sleep comfortably.
She stepped out of the coffin and walked towards the sound of water. Now, she needed to wash her face properly to wake herself up.
The thick fog made her unable to see anything. If a poisonous snake or beast appeared, she would definitely not be able to escape.
She bumped into something furry.
"Lord Jingyue?" Was it him?
She steadied her body slightly and reached out to grab the other party's…claw?
Her scalp went numb, and a bad premonition immediately surfaced in her heart. She raised her head stiffly and immediately met a pair of round eyes, and the eyes were surrounded by hair.
What was this?
She felt her back getting colder and colder, and the hair on her body seemed to stand on end. Cold sweat quietly slid down her forehead.
"Roar!" Its bloody mouth roared at her, and its other free claw swung at her impolitely.
She screamed, and her stiff body immediately lifted the petrification spell. She turned around and immediately fled the scene.
Terrifying, terrifying, this was too terrifying. What was that black furry thing? It was so tall and terrifying, like an envoy sent from hell. It was scary.
Bang! She bumped into an unknown 'thing'.
"Roar!"
She screamed again. Why did she encounter that monster again? She was so scared! I feel like I'm going to be eaten. Jing Yue Qi, where are you? Help!
The thick fog gradually dispersed, and the warm sunlight shone gently on the ground and on Jing Yue Qi.
He scanned the surroundings, but he couldn't see Ling Tian Huan's figure at all. There was no one in the coffin that she was resting in. Instead, it was in a mess and shattered as if it had been destroyed.
"Miss Ling?" He called out a few times, but she was still nowhere to be seen. He accidentally noticed some claw marks on the tree beside him. It was a bear!
There was no trace of blood here, so she should be fine. He stared at the small waterfall as if he saw a familiar figure in the water.
"Come out." Looking at her, she must have been scared out of her wits.
Hiding in the waterfall, Ling Qinghuan timidly looked around before carefully walking out from the narrow crack beside the waterfall. Before he reached the shore, he tripped over a fish that swam past him, and he still couldn't escape the fate of falling into the water.
Jing Yue Qi helplessly scooped her up. Looking at her wet clothes, it would be strange if she didn't catch a cold.
" Woo…" She lowered her head and immediately threw herself into his arms as soon as she was put down." It's so scary!" There were monsters. One, no, two, there were two furry black monsters. It was so terrifying.”She had never seen that thing before and was afraid of death. She almost thought that she was going to be killed just now.
Seeing her hugging him tightly in fear, he didn't know if he should push her away. He didn't want to get himself wet, but he couldn't be heartless enough to ignore her.
"It's alright now." Forget it, so be it!
"So terrifying, they are so tall and strong. If they were hit by those claws, it would definitely hurt.”Even now, she still had lingering fear. Fortunately, she did not faint on the spot. If she fainted, she didn't know if she would still be alive to see him. As for her father and those people who cared about her…
"That's a bear." He had seen one somewhere else just now. It seemed that they had accidentally entered their territory.
"Bear? I don't know him." But she knew that it was written in the book.
"Of course, it's okay if you know him." Was her head scared too?
"Then they won't be able to compensate me for my mental damage. Wu…"It's not worth it to be scared for nothing!
"If you want to find them…"
"No!" Before he could finish, she interrupted him anxiously. Her beautiful little face was red from crying, and her beautiful eyes were looking at him pitifully." Can we leave this place immediately?"”If the bear appeared again, she would really be scared to death. They were so tall, they could definitely kill them immediately, especially her.
"Immediately?"
"Yes, right away, right now.”She nodded vigorously. If she didn't leave this place immediately, she was afraid that she would really die.
"Yes." It seemed that she was really afraid.
"Young Master Jingyue, can I not be a servant? I want to be a younger brother."
In a silk shop, Ling Tian Huan was dressed in a pretty servant's dress, her beautiful face was filled with unwillingness.
She wanted to dress up as a handsome and charming young master. She didn't want to be a servant. God knew how many things a servant had to do, and she rarely did those things.
"This outfit suits you very well." He didn't even look at her and went straight to talk to the shop owner.
Humph! Deceiving a child! Who could not tell that he did not notice her at all? This person could not even bear to look away from the account book. Even if she wore a bear costume, he would probably say that it suited her.
In that case, hehe…
She turned around and picked a few more sets of clothes to change into. She wanted to see what he would say.
"Lord Jingyue, how about this?" She was dressed like a noble young master, and her charming and elegant demeanor immediately made the girls working in the silk shop look at her with infatuated and regretful eyes.
"Not bad." Jing Yue Qi still didn't look at her.
"I want this set too!" She looked at him carefully and could not help but snicker in her heart.
He nodded casually and did not object to her bringing a few more sets of clothes.
"How about this one?" This time, she changed into female clothes, and it was the most expensive female clothes here. It was a set of expensive bridal clothes.
He nodded again and did not reply. His mind was completely focused on the account book on the table.
Her beautiful eyes darted around and she changed into an elegant tulle. Her slightly revealing outfit shocked everyone. Their eyeballs almost fell out and their saliva almost flooded.
The man looked like he wanted to take her home and hide her for himself, while the woman was envious and jealous.
Well, no matter how she wore it, she felt that it looked good.
"Is this set okay? I think it might be useful!" Hmm, this dress was really well made, but it looked like a girl in a brothel!
"It's all good." Jing Yueqi still didn't look at her. If he wasn't so focused on the account book, he would have noticed the strange behavior of the people present. Unfortunately, he didn't get enough sleep yesterday, so he didn't have much time to pay attention to other things.
"Then help me wrap these up!”Hehe, seeing that he was so generous, she would temporarily be his servant.
It seemed like it was fun to be by his side.
" Jingyue…" Ling Tianhuan had just knocked on Jing Yueqi's door when the unlocked door slammed into the wall. She stood at the door and looked at her hand in disbelief.
She shouldn't be as rough as her father, right? She had only patted him lightly just now. It was really just a light pat.
"Sir Jingyue, are you there?" She stood at the door and looked around. As expected, she did not see anyone." I'm going in!"”
She was very curious about what he was doing. If she did not come and take a look, she would die of boredom.
However, this was indeed an inn. This room was exactly the same as the one she stayed in. It was also stingy and without any decorations.
There seemed to be something on the table. She walked closer curiously. It should be a scroll!
What should she do? She really wanted to open it up and take a look, but she didn't dare to touch other people's things. She still understood this basic respect, but she really wanted to see it!
"I'm just taking a look. I won't lose a piece of meat.”The curious side of his heart tried to incite her.
"But it's not right to do this. You don't want others to look through your things, right?”Reason appeared in time to stop her curious hand.
"No one saw it anyway. You just have to take a look, right?”Curiosity tried to convince her.
"If you go against your principles, will you still have the right to lecture others in the future? He might even lose the right to protect his own things.”Rationally, he forcefully pulled her hand back, not letting her do anything she regretted.
"Why are you so wishy-washy? Don't you want to know what's drawn inside?”
"So what if you know? It has nothing to do with you anyway." Some things were better left unsaid.
"Maybe it can be avoided…"
She stretched out her hand and retracted it again and again. Her curiosity and rationality argued for a long time, but she still could not reach a conclusion.
Both sides had their reasons, so she didn't know who to listen to.
"What are you talking to yourself for?”
At some point, Jing Yue Qi had arrived behind her and witnessed her inner struggle.
It turned out that she still knew how to respect other people's privacy. Her appreciation for her was no longer just her appearance, and her good impression of her had increased by a little.
"Please, don't suddenly make a sound next time, okay? Scaring people will scare them to death.”The big black bear had frightened him so much that his courage was still incomplete. This little bit of courage had almost died in his hands.
Sigh, it seemed that rationality had won. The rationality guard had succeeded.
"There's no need to be afraid if you haven't done anything wrong.”He put away the scroll, clearly not satisfying her curiosity.
This time, no matter how curious she was, she wouldn't ask any more questions. He had already put away the scroll, so it would be too inappropriate to ask again.
"I'm timid and easily frightened.”She hadn't even done anything wrong!
However, it was still fine. If she really did it, it would be strange if she was not discovered on the spot. She did not want to be sent to the government as a thief to eat free food in prison.
"This." He suddenly shook the scroll." It's a treasure map."”
"Treasure map!"
He covered her mouth." Do you want everyone to know?”He didn't intend to get himself into trouble.
Indeed, if people knew about it, they would definitely fight for it. This was a treasure map!
But was that true or false? Perhaps she could draw a map and say that it was a treasure map, and everyone would believe it.
"How can you tell me without worry?" If it was true, wasn't he afraid that she would snatch it away? Either way, it would be detrimental to him. He should have thought of this.
"Aren't you very curious? Wouldn't it be good to tell you?" He glanced at her expressionlessly, then turned around and put the scroll back into his bag.
"Should I be happy that you trust me so much, or should I warn you not to trust others so easily?”Did he not understand how sinister the human heart was?
To be honest, after knowing that it was a treasure map, she had a bad feeling, as if she would be involved in an unlucky incident at any time.
She liked money, but not to the point of being obsessed with it. As long as she had enough silver, it would be fine. Too much would make her worry, so she would not have any ideas about the treasure map. However, others would definitely not think so. This time, something bad would definitely happen.
"What's wrong?"
"Let me remind you that the door is open.”As long as someone was outside the door, it was very likely that they would hear their conversation.
She looked like she was about to face a disaster. Was she not interested in the treasure?
"You hate gold, silver, and jewelry?" No one should hate him.
"I don't hate you." He couldn't possibly think that she was a pure nun just because she was like this, right? She still had to rely on silver to survive.
"You don't seem to like it either." Although she had spent all her money on food, necessities, and accommodation for the past two days, she had not asked him for a single cent. He knew that she did not have any money on her. Other than some necessities that he had to pay for, she had never asked him for anything else.
"I don't particularly like it. It's fine as long as I have enough silver.”If she had too much money, she would have to worry about being robbed or kidnapped at any time. She did not want to work so hard.
"Won't you be sad if you don't have any money on you?”He was not blind, so he could tell that she was the kind of girl who needed to be served.
"It's alright." She wouldn't say it even if she was really sad. She didn't want to burden him.
He wondered if she would tell him if she was really sad. She was quite polite when it came to money.
"If you can finish every meal, I'll give you one tael.”He really couldn't stand seeing her eat less than half a bowl of rice.
Oh, one tael! There was a lot, but why did he give her money? She would save money if she ate less, wouldn't she?
"It's settled then. You must finish the food I served you.”He patted her head like she was a child.
"I'll get it myself." Well, she shouldn't have taken money from him. She was not related to him, and she didn't want to owe him too much. It would be very troublesome in the future.
"You can't even fill half a bowl yourself.”He really didn't expect that he would force a girl to eat like this. If others knew about this, they would definitely say that there was something wrong with him.
"I eat a lot of meals in small amounts. If I eat too much at once, my stomach will feel very upset and I will want to vomit.”It was true. When she was at home, she had three meals, two snacks, and one night snack. Even when she was working, her father would order the servants to make snacks for her. Of course, he would also eat them himself. The father and daughter always ate together.
Sigh, I suddenly miss my father! I wonder how he is doing? Did you eat six bowls of rice like before? Did you eat the snacks? Did you sleep? Did he miss her?
"I see that you didn't eat an extra meal.”She couldn't possibly endure hunger every time and not say anything, right?
"Yes, it's a critical period. There's no need to be too calculative.”He wouldn't die even if he ate two less snacks and a night snack a day. He would just starve for a few more hours.
He suddenly picked her up, and his inexplicable action made her cry out softly.
"What are you doing?" Her round and beautiful eyes stared at him warily. She was his servant in name, but in fact, she was an unmarried girl. How could he hug her like this! If anyone saw this, she would rather die.
"You've become lighter." No matter how thin a woman was, she should at least have some weight. However, he could lift her up with one hand.
"Do you think you're catching a kitten or a puppy?”He was carrying her just now, but now he was carrying her like a small animal. She shouldn't be that light!
He stared at her dissatisfied face and raised his other hand to wipe the dust off the tip of her nose." Little bug."”
She was stunned and did not understand what he meant, but immediately…
What? Little Bug! How dare he call her a bug!# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:1024201810: 51AM
