Xu Wan couldn't hear what Jiang Tingzhou said, but she heard Xie Ning say that he would contact her again tomorrow, and she felt a little desperate.
It was a very remote place, and she wasn't sure if Jiang Tingzhou could be found.
If it's really just one day, that's fine.
What if day after day...
By this time, it was getting dark, the horizon was pitch black, and there was no sunset in sight. Only dark clouds hung low overhead, and it looked like it was about to rain.
Xie Ning glanced at the sky, then quickly climbed down to the first floor, seemingly having gone far away.
Xu Wan was bound and unable to move. Her body was also a little cold, and her eyelids were extremely heavy. She lowered her head and drifted off to sleep.
Xu Wan didn't know how long she had slept when she was woken up by a clap of thunder.
It was pitch black outside; it was still late at night.
"So cold...so hungry..."
Xu Wan shuddered and tried to move, but the painful constriction on her wrist reminded her of her current situation.
Rain pattered against the roof and leaked in through the unsealed windows.
Amid the sound of rain, Xu Wan could vaguely hear Xie Ning speaking.
Someone's here?
She tried her best to listen carefully.
"I'm telling you, don't go back on your word! Otherwise, I have nothing to lose, and I'll implicate you all even if I go to jail!"
Xie Ning seemed to have gotten into an argument with the other party, and her voice suddenly rose.
Who is he talking to on the phone?
It doesn't sound like Jiang Tingzhou.
Xu Wan believed that someone as intelligent as Jiang Tingzhou would never provoke Xie Ning.
"I have no way out now, don't push me!"
"Okay, promise me you'll let me go abroad for medical treatment afterward!"
"You dared to lie to me, I will definitely find a way to get revenge on you!"
Xie Ning's voice grew louder and louder.
Xu Wan heard it even more clearly.
As expected, Xie Ning couldn't have carried out the kidnapping alone; he had someone helping him.
The rain intensified, increasing the humidity in the air.
Xu Wan shivered from the cold. Her wrists, which were bound too tightly, seemed to be bleeding from the friction, and the wounds were swollen. It hurt when she moved them.
what to do……
Do you have any over here?
"Take a look over there!"
Just as Xu Wan was feeling desperate, she heard a faint sound coming from afar.
She struggled to open her eyes and looked out from the unsealed balcony on the second floor. She could see a faint light swaying from side to side in the rain, like the beam of a flashlight.
The police have arrived?
Clearly, Xie Ning also heard the sound and immediately stepped onto a stool and went up to the second floor.
He looked at the faint beam of a flashlight in the distance and cursed, "Damn it, I didn't expect to find it so quickly."
Xu Wan lowered her head and pretended to be asleep.
She had just closed her eyes when she was kicked hard in the back.
"Wake up!"
Xie Ning called to her in a low voice.
He lifted her particularly hard, and Xu Wan let out a muffled groan as tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
She pretended to be confused and asked, "What's wrong?"
“Your husband is quite capable; he managed to find him.”
Xie Ning took out a butterfly knife from his pocket, cut the knots binding Xu Wan in a few strokes, and pulled the rope out.
He pulled Xu Wan up and tied her arms and hands with a rope.
Throughout the process, Xu Wan did consider running away, but it was raining outside, and if she couldn't escape, she might be in danger!
Don't risk the baby in your belly!
At that moment, the flashlight beam was right in front of them.
Someone downstairs shouted, "Here, the grass here has been trampled on!"
Xie Ning tugged at the knot in the rope, pressed the sharpened blade of the butterfly knife against Xu Wan's neck, and shouted, "Stop looking, it's right here!"
The flashlight beam immediately focused on them.
Xie Ning pulled Xu Wan to the second-floor balcony.
As he walked, the butterfly knife in his hand was always pressed against Xu Wan's neck. Because Xu Wan couldn't keep up with his pace, there were already several bloody marks on her neck.
Blood trickled down his neck.
"Where's the money?" Xie Ning grabbed Xu Wan's collar. "Since you've come looking for us, you must have brought the money too!"
Xu Wan was forced to sit all night. She was cold, tired, and hungry. Her legs felt like they didn't belong to her, and she could barely stand.
She dared not relax, for Xie Ning's blade was pressed against her neck.
If you're not careful, you might bleed even more.
She has a rare blood type.
If you bleed too much, your own life and your child's life will be in danger!
Through the black rain, Xu Wan saw a figure running towards her, stumbling along.
As the others ran closer, Xu Wan saw clearly...
That person is Jiang Tingzhou!
