Ji Ci just glanced at the two people hugging each other and turned his head away.
Are they being too intimate?
Well, it must be that their actions were too ambiguous for me to bear watching.
Wen Shuangnian noticed Ji Ci's awkward look and couldn't help but keep his eyes on his face.
But she quickly turned her attention back to Shen Mingzhu, "Okay, don't get too excited. After all, we don't know whether it will be Mr. Ji's bodyguard or our village chief who will come to rescue us first."
Hearing this, Ji Ci's gloomy expression eased a little.
If this girl is sensible, maybe her bodyguard will notice the abnormality faster and come to rescue her?
Shen Mingzhu let her go with a smile, "I think the possibility of the village chief is higher. After all, a powerful dragon cannot defeat a local snake."
"Although Ji Ci's bodyguards are not bad, they have a fatal flaw, which is that they think highly of themselves just like their boss, and think that these small-time people in remote areas dare not take any real action."
"But often it is because their origins are far inferior to those of ordinary people, so their inferior methods will make everyone who despises them pay the price."
"A thousand-mile dam collapses because of an ant hole. Never underestimate the power that any low-level person can unleash in order to survive."
A hint of surprise flashed in Ji Ci's eyes, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Shen Mingzhu who was talking seriously to Wen Shuangnian about some profound principles.
Her train of thought was always very peculiar, but it always gave him the feeling that even if she didn't follow the rules, she could still produce surprising results.
However, Wen Shuangnian reached out and tapped Shen Mingzhu's forehead, "What a twisted logic! After all, a well-trained bodyguard is not as good as these scoundrels in the mountains in your mouth?"
Shen Mingzhu covered her forehead and stepped back, looking at Wen Shuangnian with a face full of grievance, "Although my words are exaggerated, if I don't say this, I'm afraid Ji Ci will not take today's accident seriously, and sooner or later he will suffer a great loss!"
Sure enough, Shen Mingzhu could never be serious for more than three seconds.
Ji Ci rubbed his brows helplessly. How could he have been fooled by Shen Mingzhu and really took her nonsense as the truth?
"So should he thank you for your advice?"
Shen Mingzhu pouted slightly, her eyes swaying left and right, her head swaying slightly with her gaze, "If he insists on thanking me, I can accept it."
Wen Shuangnian was amused by her action, "The abacus beads hit my face, please restrain yourself."
Shen Mingzhu chuckled, then secretly glanced at Ji Ci, "The dignified Patriarch of the Ji family shouldn't be so petty as to haggle over a small person like me!"
If it was just said like this, Ji Ci would just let it go with a sound of disgust in his heart.
But Shen Mingzhu just had to get in front of Ji Ci and make faces.
Ji Ci couldn't bear it any longer, so he bent his knuckles and hit Shen Mingzhu on the forehead.
"Who said I don't care? I'm not only petty but also narrow-minded. If you really make me angry, I'll send you to Africa."
Shen Mingzhu immediately covered her head and retreated to the corner, but she didn't dare to complain.
"Wow, I have reason to suspect that Ji Ci can hear my inner voice. Otherwise, how could he know so well what I said when I cursed him behind his back? Or does he also like to read brainless domineering CEO novels? So he aspires to be a domineering CEO as cool and awesome as in the books?"
The first half of her thoughts made Ji Ci and Wen Shuangnian look at her in silence, especially Ji Ci, who thought he had been discovered because he was too obvious.
But when I think about it carefully, it seems that I have never mentioned the words that appeared in her mind but never said out loud.
After hearing the second half of the sentence, Ji Ci decisively swallowed back the denial that had already blurted out of his throat. It seemed that she just discovered the truth by accident and then put it behind her.
After all, no one can believe that in this science-loving society, there actually is a miraculous metaphysical phenomenon that can hear people's voices.
Although Wen Shuangnian's reaction was not as big as Ji Ci's, he was also thinking, what if one day Shen Mingzhu discovered that he could hear her inner voice?
How would she react?
After all, her inner thoughts are her privacy, and having others hear her inner thoughts is no different from running naked in front of others.
Even if Shen Mingzhu is so generous, given their good relationship, she probably wouldn't be able to accept it.
So from the very beginning, Wen Shuangnian kept the fact that he could hear Shen Mingzhu's inner thoughts a secret and never responded to the contents of her thoughts.
She just had to pretend she didn't hear it.
The three people in the same space had their own thoughts, so no one noticed for a long time of silence.
Until some noises could be vaguely heard outside.
Shen Mingzhu instantly stopped the messy thoughts in her mind and quietly put her ear against the door in an attempt to hear the sounds outside.
But this action is useless, I just can't hear clearly.
But Shen Mingzhu turned around and looked at the other two with a tone of watching the fun.
"Just a blind guess, is this noise coming from Shuangnian's village chief, or Ji Ci's mighty bodyguard?"
Wen Shuangnian smiled and imitated Shen Mingzhu and put his ear against the door, and then they both looked at Ji Ci at the same time.
Ji Ci felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by them, so he decided to turn his back and not look at these two childish guys.
He would never do anything stupid like putting his ear against the door.
"Warm reminder, if you two keep your ears pressed against the door, and someone breaks in, you will be the first to get hurt."
Shen Mingzhu curled her lips and said, "It's not fun. You won't cooperate."
However, even though they expressed disdain for Ji Ci's behavior of pouring cold water on them, the two of them still obediently walked a few steps inside.
Avoid the situation where Ji Ci’s bad words become reality.
Meanwhile, the noise outside was growing louder and louder, and the three people inside could hear a few shouts mixed in with the commotion without having to get close to the door.
"I don't care who you are! You dare to bully our treasures in Funing Village! We will destroy your village!"
A loud roar filled with anger brought a smile to Wen Shuangnian's eyes.
Shen Mingzhu was equally delighted, "Hehe, I was right, it turned out to be the village chief! Ji Ci, you lose!"
Ji Ci coughed lightly, "I never made a bet with you."
The implication is that if he didn't gamble, he wouldn't lose.
"Humph! Is it difficult to admit that you are not as good as Shuangnian?"
Ji Ci was so angry that he laughed at Shen Mingzhu's words, "I don't know if it's difficult or not, but it's okay to let you suffer a little."
He raised his hand slightly, bending his knuckles.
Shen Mingzhu hid behind Wen Shuangnian in an instant, "What are you doing? Don't mess around! Otherwise, I will make the village chief not save you!"
"Hmph! Ji Ci, you nasty fellow, wait till I get back and complain to grandma! I can't handle you, and grandma too!"
The only question left in Ji Ci’s mind was, Grandma?
Which grandma?
How come he remembered that Shen Mingzhu's grandmother had passed away long ago? If it wasn't her biological grandmother, who else could threaten him?
However, Ji Ci couldn't figure out no matter how hard he tried, that the grandmother Shen Mingzhu was talking about was his biological grandmother.
However, while Ji Ci was thinking, the door of the room that locked them was broken open with a loud noise.
