Chapter 16: Being kidnapped
Proofread by He Li
Yuexi glances at the man standing in front of her, sensing the hostility. When she is preparing to close the door, the man suddenly rushes forward and takes her arm. She yells and struggles for a few times, but the man is so strong that he drags her to the car parked in front of her house. There are two men wearing the same black suits in the car. Yuexi sits between them, being in an extremely uncomfortable position.
Is she kidnapped? She carefully glances into the compartment. The man who grabs her is driving the car right now. And the other two men who are sitting beside her remain motionless, like puppets. After thinking about it for a long while, Yuexi couldn’t help but ask, “Well … who is your master?”
Doesn’t “Master” only occur in TV series? She doesn’t seem to have offended anyone. Thinking about this, she suddenly remembers what Chen Ying said yesterday,”You cannot mess around Li family from Feng Town! Not to mention Xu family is already involved! Now you are in a messy situation, and no one can help you!” No way!
But seeing that these people are completely uninterested in her, she thinks that she is not in danger, at least for a while. Thinking about this, she feels relieved. When the car stops in front of a dilapidated warehouse, Yuexi becomes speechless. Do these people come from the gang?Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Yuexi feels scared in hindsight, when remembering Chen Ying who told her to be careful. She follows these men to go inside and asks timidly, “Where is your master? Isn’t he there?”
“We are only responsible for bringing you here.” The man says these words in a simple and neat manner, and closes the door, leaving Yuexi alone in the dark and empty warehouse.
She cannot help but lament about her miserable fate. Although she isn’t a Merit student at school, she isn’t all that bad. After meeting Ling Yun, on some impulse, she desperately wants to be a housewife. However, her marriage turns out to be a scam. As for Li Fengjue, she thought it was a brief affair at first, but she eventually married him at last.
Now, her life totally becomes chaotic and dramatic, and she is even kidnapped! “Master? Do you think you are in an action film?” Yuexi cannot help but murmur. She hears some clear applause from not far away, and following the thin trace of light, she finds a tall figure coming near slowly.
Until she sees the person clearly in front of her, she couldn’t help frowning. She doesn’t know him. The man sizes Yuexi up with his pair of foxy eyes before saying, “You are such a stupid woman with no sense of crisis. I fail to see any sign that shows you are better than my younger sister.”
Yuexi looks at the man suspiciously. Her brain is running fast. What he says about her his younger sister should be Li Fengjue’s fiancée, Xu Ziqi. Right now, Yuexi is at the mercy of others, so she can only say something nice, “No, I think your sister is fine.”
Xu Linchen curls up the corners of his mouth, and his eyes glow with cold light, “You talk nice.”
“I’m telling the truth, and I don’t want to steal Li Fengjue from your sister at all. I’m just a normal woman who has no decisive power.” Speaking of this, Yuexi couldn’t help but feel helpless.
“If you resent Li Fengjue, you should just go directly to him and confront him. Why mess around with me?”Yuexi thought secretly in heart.
The man’s narrow eyes narrow into a slit, and he steps forward towards Yuexi, “As long as you leave Li Fengjue, I can offer you lots of money, enough for you to spend the rest of your life.”
What is happening? It feels like a third-rate TV series. Yuexi looks at him, embarrassed, “I don’t need money. I will leave when it’s time. As I already told you, it’s not my own decision.” What she said is vague. After all, she still doesn’t figure out what is happening, so she cannot be stupid enough to turn her back on Li Fengjue.
Xu Linchen takes a deep look at her and stands before her. “Have you thought it through?” The tone is threatening. After swallowing saliva, Yuexi’s eyes are goggling slowly. Now she has no choice but to be careful with every word she is going to say. Otherwise, she might actually die if she says something wrong.
Xu Linchen stares right into Yuexi’s bright eyes, reaches out and raises her chin, forcing her to face his eyes directly. “I give you two choices. Either take the money and get out, or I’ll end you, you choose.” As he speaks, he slowly leans over. The distance between them is getting closer and closer.
Yuexi takes a horrified intake of breath. Staring at his serious face, she falters out a few words, “End me? Does he mean he is going to kill me?”
Xu Linchen leans down, which causes Yuexi to fall to the ground while attempting to distance herself from him. The man suspends himself with one hand, and the rest of his body weight is pressed on her, with a playful smile in his eyes.
“Observed closely, you look quite good. And you have a nice shape.” His hands wander around Yuexi’s waist, making the gesture to rip off her clothes. She screams with her eyes widened. She looks at him in disbelief. Chen Ying is right. Is he going to play the hard way?
Seeing her reaction, Xu Linchen’s evil smile becomes even bigger. “I would like to see if Li Fengjue would still want you if we have slept together.” As he speaks, he leans down again. Right at the moment when his lips are about to touch hers, Yuexi closes her eyes in fright. When she is about to struggle, she hears his phone ring, which brings Lin to a stop. Yuexi opens her eyes and looks at him, her heart beating fast out of fear.
Xu Linchen smiles when he sees it is Li Fengjue who calls, “He is good. He has found out where you are in such a short time.” Yuexi has no time to care for him. She pushes him away and moves back.
“Fengjue, how do you have time for……”
“Where is she?” Li Fengjue gets straight to the point, with a deep and scary tone.
“I just invite her to my place, don’t be so mean.” Xu Linchen curls up the corners of his mouth.
“Put her on the phone.” Li Fengjue still worries about her. Xu Linchen is a man who doesn’t care about any consequence.
“Don’t be so ruthless, we haven’t seen each other for a long time. I think this woman isn’t as pretty as Ziqi. Except for her good body, she doesn’t seem to have any advantage. I can take care of it for you, after all we are all men. As long as you still marry Ziqi, our family won’t care at all.”
After hearing him finish the long nonsense, Li Fengjue repeats the sentence he has just said, “Put her on the phone.”
Xu Linchen shrugs his shoulders, hands the phone over to Yuexi. She is still scared. When she is on the phone, she says with sorrow, “How about we get divorced? I’m still young, I don’t want to waste my youth away like this.”
