It's hard to believe she's managed to hold off Su Jiusheng for so long. She's deliberately stalling for time to buy Jiang Yingchi a chance to rescue her, as long as she doesn't leave this place…
With her mouth glued shut, Ning Qiluo couldn't speak and could only glare at Su Jiusheng with a hateful look.
Su Jiusheng probably didn't care at all, letting her glare at him however she wanted, since it wouldn't hurt him anyway.
...
Ning Qiluo was carried out of the room by Su Jiusheng in his arms.
It was indeed a building, but it wasn't as tall as Ning Qiluo had imagined. There were only two floors below, and a wide open space stretched out before her.
but……
Ning Qiluo also realized that this small building was built on the edge of a high cliff, which explained why her bedroom looked so high from the window...
"Mmm...mmm..."
Ning Qiluo made anxious muffled noises.
Because there were two people on the open ground below, no, more than two. There were people all around the open ground, but they were hidden in the corners. Only the two people standing in the middle of the open ground were the most conspicuous.
It seemed to have become a place for negotiations.
Two opposing men are negotiating.
From this angle, Ning Qiluo could clearly see the two men on the ground. The man facing her was Su Muyu. Ning Qiluo saw his smiling, triumphant face, and his gaze even glanced at her.
The man standing opposite Su Muyu, with his back to Ning Qiluo, was so familiar. He was wearing only a business vest and straight trousers, standing there like a vigorous pine tree.
The moment he turned around and looked up, Su Jiusheng put her down. The railing blocked the view from below, and also blocked Ning Qiluo's entire view.
Her eyes welled up with tears, and her bound hands gripped Su Jiusheng's collar tightly. "Mmm...mmm..."
She wanted to speak.
But with the tape sealing her mouth, she could only make muffled sounds and couldn't utter a single clear word.
Su Jiusheng understood her feelings at that moment and gently comforted her: "Treat this as a gamble, and you are the spoils of this gamble. Think about it, who will win?"
Large tears streamed down Ning Qiluo's face, leaving a trail of tears on her cheeks.
Her tears were silent, yet they were heartbreaking.
Su Jiusheng looked away from her, silently counted a few seconds, then picked her up and quickly left the balcony.
Su Jiusheng took her down the mountain. It wasn't a long journey, and he carried her all the way without much effort.
This was a wide river that Ning Qiluo had never seen before. She only just realized that the water below this mountain, below the rushing waterfall, would converge into a river at the foot of the mountain.
There is a ship on the river at this moment.
Su Jiusheng waved, and the people on the ship, presumably to meet him, sailed over.
"Mmm...mmm..."
Seeing the ship heading this way, Ning Qiluo panicked completely. If she were put on the ship, wouldn't it be even more difficult for her to see Jiang Yingchi again?
No, absolutely not.
She made muffled cries for help, struggling in Su Jiusheng's arms, trying to break free, even if it meant falling and hurting the baby in her womb...
