Xu Wan was shaken awake by a splitting headache.
Before her mind had fully cleared, her nostrils were filled with a foul stench emanating from some unknown source, making her feel nauseous.
This stimulation brought her to a slightly clearer state of mind.
Xu Wan found herself tied to a chair, and what bound her wasn't just rope, but also layers of duct tape, electrical wires...
And those who are imprisoned by these things...
It was one bomb after another!
Xu Wan's mind exploded instantly, and memories from before she lost consciousness flooded back into her mind.
She went to pick up Xiaoxiao, but couldn't get through to Jiang Tingzhou on the way. Then, the driver was hit by a car while parking...
Xu Wan didn't look up; she could vaguely hear footsteps beside her.
She had experienced this situation before.
The last time Xie Ning kidnapped her, it was the same thing...
Xu Wan originally wanted to pretend that she hadn't woken up, but the disgusting smell around her made her unable to control her physical nausea, and she couldn't help but dry heave.
People walking by noticed she was awake and came over.
Xu Wan didn't look up immediately; she only noticed the man's shoes in the dim light.
It was a very ordinary pair of athletic casual shoes, paired with dress pants.
The man moved closer, and Xu Wan could faintly smell something burning.
"Attorney Xu, are you awake? Are you hungry?"
As soon as the man spoke, Xu Wan recognized his identity.
It's Jiang De'an.
Xu Wan held her breath, took several deep breaths, and then slowly raised her head.
She felt extremely dizzy, and even when she looked up, she felt like the person standing in front of her was spinning.
"You... let me go."
Xu Wan was in great pain and couldn't say anything else.
Jiang De'an pulled up a chair, sat down slowly, and said, "I will definitely let you go, after all, my nephew will come to rescue you later."
nephew.
By saying this, Jiang De'an clearly knows that Ryan is Jiang Tingzhou.
Xu Wan didn't say anything, but she felt a little relieved.
Thankfully, Jiang Tingzhou is alright.
Jiang De'an asked again, "Do you want to eat? Do you want to drink? I can get you some."
Xu Wan raised her head slightly: "Untie my hands?"
“I certainly can’t untie you, but I can feed you,” Jiang De’an laughed. “After all, the main act hasn’t even started yet, how can the protagonist leave?”
Xu Wan felt uncomfortable and looked at Jiang De'an without saying a word.
Jiang De'an looked around and asked, "Do you know where this is?"
Xu Wan also glanced around.
This appears to be a house, or more accurately, a garage.
There was a double door made of tinplate in front of them, but it was locked with chains.
This appears to be the only exit from this room.
There was a small, old metal single bed on the side, with one leg bent and bricks underneath, but the bed board was still slightly tilted.
There is a small desk next to it.
Jiang De'an was sitting in the chair that matched the desk.
The room was filled with many things, all of which were completely broken and unrecognizable.
Xu Wan wasn't sure if she was seeing things, but she thought she saw a mouse peek out from the pile of things.
She was so dizzy that she didn't even have the strength to shout.
Looking at the dilapidated state of everything, Xu Wan suddenly remembered that Jiang De'an was the illegitimate son of Jiang Tingzhou's grandfather.
I don't know what I was thinking, but I just said, "Your home."
"My niece-in-law is really smart. No wonder my nephew likes you so much. Being smart is a woman's virtue, but sometimes being too smart isn't a good thing." After praising Xu Wan, Jiang De'an continued, "Yes, this is my home. I've been locked up here since I can remember."
Xu Wan had long known that Jiang De'an did many things for revenge.
He brought himself here, and his purpose seems quite clear.
Xu Wan did not speak.
Jiang De'an looked up and said, "See that crack in the door? That woman is often not home. When I have nothing to eat, I peek through the crack and ask people outside for food. Kids will throw things in for me, and I eat whatever they throw in..."
After a long pause, he summed it up with one word: "Like a dog."
