Several people heard the voice, but they didn't think much about it and continued walking towards the door.
But after taking only two steps, the sound of the chains rattling became even louder than before.
Shen Ningyuan felt something was wrong.
The sound seemed to be deliberately trying to attract their attention.
Shen Ningyuan stopped and looked towards the place where the chain made a sound.
I saw a disheveled man shaking the chain in his hand, trying to make it make a louder sound.
After Shen Ningyuan turned around, the other party became even more excited and looked at her and screamed.
He stretched out his hands, which were like dead branches, and waved them wildly.
Shen Ningyuan looked closely and saw the shadow of Cui Mingzhu on the blood-stained face.
Shen Ningyuan's heart skipped a beat.
This person... is Cui Mingzhu?
She didn't die, but was locked up here?
Just when Shen Ningyuan was confused, Cui Jin suddenly noticed her abnormality.
"Yuan'er, what are you looking at?"
The shouting brought Shen Ningyuan back to her senses, and when she turned around, she saw Cui Jin walking towards her.
Shen Ningyuan quickly shook her head, "Mom, I'm fine, let's go out quickly."
As he spoke, Shen Ningyuan pulled Cui Jin and walked outside faster.
At this time, Cui Mingzhu shook the chain in his hand more violently, trying to attract Cui Jin's attention.
Cui Jin turned around and saw Cui Mingzhu lying on the ground, shaking the chains hard, and couldn't help frowning.
"Yuan'er, why does mother feel that this person is a little familiar?" Cui Jin asked suspiciously.
Shen Ningyuan quickly said: “Mother, you must have been imprisoned for too long and have hallucinations.”
Shen Haobai also advised: "Sister is right, it is not suitable to stay here for long, we should leave quickly."
Having said this, Cui Jin had no choice but to put aside his doubts and left the dungeon.
Seeing that the crowd was getting farther and farther away, Cui Mingzhu shook the chains even harder.
But Cui Jin didn't notice her until the dungeon door was closed.
Cui Mingzhu burst into tears and finally gave up struggling.
After walking out of the dungeon, Cui Jin still felt something was wrong, and the person covered in wounds kept appearing in his mind.
When Shen Ningyuan saw her like this, she could tell at a glance that Cui Jin was still thinking about what had just happened.
He quickly comforted her, "Mom, don't think about it. We will take you to a safe place first."
"good."
Cui Jin responded vaguely, then jumped on the horse and rode together with Shen Ningyuan.
Just as everyone left, there was a sound of heavy footsteps coming from far away.
Ji Yunchuan, the leader, led a group of men in black. As soon as they entered the dungeon, they immediately realized that someone had been in.
"not good!"
Ji Yunchuan's face changed, he cursed inwardly "Oh no", and immediately rushed to the deepest dungeon.
Sure enough, the dungeon where Cui Jin was originally imprisoned was now empty.
Cui Jin had been rescued a long time ago!
"Damn it!" Ji Yunchuan punched the wall, "I actually fell for the trick!"
"Who on earth knows the location of the dungeon and is plotting against us behind our backs?"
"Master, according to my observation, those people are heading towards the city. We should still have time to catch up with them now."
"Why don't you go after him quickly!" Ji Yunchuan cursed angrily.
The subordinate immediately lowered his head and said, "Yes, yes, we'll go now!"
After he finished speaking, the man took a few men in black and chased in the direction where Shen Ningyuan and his group had left.
Ji Yunchuan stopped where he was, glanced around coldly, and suddenly looked at the dungeon where Cui Mingzhu was imprisoned.
Pointing at Cui Mingzhu, he asked in a deep voice, "When did a new person get locked up in this dungeon?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the subordinate immediately explained: "It was sent in by His Highness."
"The person sent in by His Highness?" Ji Yunchuan frowned slightly and asked in confusion, "Your Highness never asks about the affairs of the dungeon, so why would he suddenly send someone in?"
"This..." The subordinate looked embarrassed. "I'm not very clear about this either. I only know that His Highness attaches great importance to this person and specifically asked us to take good care of him."
"Is that so?"
Ji Yunchuan squatted down suspiciously and looked Cui Mingzhu up and down.
Because she was disheveled and her face was covered in blood, Ji Yunchuan couldn't help but touch her for a moment.
In particular, after seeing Ji Yunchuan squatting down, Cui Mingzhu did not shake the chains like before, but shrank into the corner, as if to avoid being recognized by Ji Yunchuan.
After a moment, Ji Yunchuan sneered and said sarcastically, "It's beyond my expectation that a woman would ask His Highness to personally explain herself."
"Okay, you guys take good care of him." Ji Yunchuan stood up, "Don't lose him."
After saying that, Ji Yunchuan left the dungeon with a gloomy face.
On the other side, Shen Ningyuan had already brought Cui Jin to Ningle Tower.
When Lao Guai saw Shen Ningyuan, he immediately called her in.
He greeted enthusiastically, "Boss, why did you come here so suddenly?"
Shen Ningyuan was not polite and asked directly: "Is there an extra room?"
Lao Guai was stunned. "The extra room...what is the boss going to do here?"
Shen Ningyuan turned around, looked at Cui Jin, and explained, "I want to settle my mother in Ningle Tower."
"The boss's mother..."
Lao Guai was stunned for a moment and wanted to ask something, but finally stopped.
He nodded immediately and said, "There is a room. Please follow me, sir."
After saying that, Lao Guai led everyone towards the backyard of Ningle Building.
It was only at this time that Cui Jin asked in surprise, "Yuan'er, when did you become the owner of Ningle Tower?"
"Mom, it was given to me by a friend." Shen Ningyuan explained calmly.
"Friend?" Cui Jin frowned. "What kind of friend is he? He actually gave Ningle Tower to you?"
You know, when she opened a restaurant in Beijing, her biggest rival was Ning Le Lou.
The two sides competed for a long time, and finally she gave in. The two houses competed against each other and each occupied half of the market.
But unexpectedly, in just one year, Ningle Tower became his daughter's property?
This had to surprise her.
Even Shen Haobai and Shen Haoyue looked at Shen Ningyuan in confusion, waiting for her answer.
However, Shen Ningyuan didn't want to explain too much.
"Just an ordinary friend, mom, don't ask too many questions."
Hearing this, Cui Jin didn't ask any more questions and continued to walk towards the backyard.
At this moment, Shen Haoyue suddenly thought of something and whispered softly: "Ning Le... Ning Yuan?"
Then he suddenly raised his head and looked at Shen Ningyuan in surprise, "Sister, are you sure that the person who sent you to Ningle Tower is really just an ordinary friend?"
As soon as the words fell, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.
Shen Haobai and Cui Jin also reacted immediately and stared at Shen Ningyuan closely.
Facing the questioning gazes of her mother and two brothers, Shen Ningyuan finally realized what was going on.
The name of Ningle Tower is homophonic with his own name.
So from the very beginning, Ji Yunnuo founded this restaurant just to give it to himself?
But...what does he want from giving himself a restaurant?
