They agreed to go to Fan Xixi's house, but after Xu Nian got into Zhou Lingjing's car, the route was completely wrong.
"Zhou Lingjing, where are we going?" Xu Nian noticed that Pei Zhuo's car had fallen behind, and she couldn't see his car following at all in the rearview mirror.
Zhou Lingjing didn't say anything; he calmly turned off his phone.
At a fork in the road, the car turned directly into the tunnel.
When they came out again, Xu Nian had already passed out in the passenger seat.
Zhou Lingjing drove the car a short distance and then stopped it on the side of the road.
There was already an ordinary car waiting there, with two people inside, one of whom was dressed and had the same build as Zhou Lingjing.
Zhou Lingjing carried Xu Nian to the back seat of the regular car, while the person who resembled him was left behind.
"Boss, is everything going according to plan?" the driver asked from the driver's seat.
Zhou Lingjing stroked the cheek of the person in his arms, without looking up, and said, "Proceed according to plan."
The ordinary car drove out, and after driving for a while, the driver drove directly onto the highway.
All the actions were carried out in an orderly manner, clearly indicating that it had been planned in advance.
Zhou Lingjing gazed at the person in his arms, but still couldn't resist kissing Xu Nian's lips.
Reversing course and turning things upside down, like drinking poison to quench thirst, will only make him want more.
It's just that the place and timing were wrong, otherwise I really would have devoured her whole.
Zhou Lingjing forcibly separated himself from Xu Nian, his once calm and unwavering eyes now shimmering with a startling lust.
The driver drove in silence, not daring to even glance at the situation in the back seat.
To protect his secure job, he absolutely refuses to watch anything he shouldn't; this is his professional ethics.
It took an hour to get off the highway.
The route was already memorized, so the driver didn't even need navigation to know where to go.
...
In her daze, Xu Nian felt someone kissing her, and the hot breath made her restless.
I suddenly opened my eyes and found myself in an unfamiliar environment.
As her memories returned, recalling Zhou Lingjing's sinister profile before she fell into a coma, Xu Nian's face turned deathly pale.
How could he do such a thing to her?
Why drug her?
Where is this? Is Zhou Lingjing planning to imprison her?
Xu Nian got out of bed, but as soon as her feet touched the ground, she collapsed back down.
As she slumped onto the carpet, Xu Nian finally noticed how strikingly beautiful her skin looked beneath her pajamas.
Staring at those specks of rose red, her mind went blank for a moment.
While she was unconscious, Zhou Lingjing had already...
No, he probably didn't go all the way to the last step; he didn't experience any discomfort or pain.
Just then, the door opened, and Zhou Lingjing walked in, impeccably dressed.
Seeing the panicked person on the ground, he frowned unhappily and said, "Niannian, why are you still so reckless? Did you hurt yourself?"
"Zhou Lingjing, imprisonment is illegal." This situation made Xu Nian realize that she had messed up both her plans.
"Niannian, I won't imprison you, I just want you to stay here for one day." Zhou Lingjing picked Xu Nian up from the ground and put her back on the bed.
He didn't leave; instead, he enveloped the person completely.
Seeing Xu Nian's panicked expression, Zhou Lingjing gave a self-deprecating smile and asked with suppressed anger, "Niannian, it's not enough that you provoked me, you had to go and provoke Pei Zhuo too. You even abandoned me to go on a date with him, and you even let him kiss you. Do you even care about me? Or do you even care about what I said?"
The belated question left Xu Nian speechless. Zhou Lingjing looked too dangerous; how could she calm him down? "Zhou Lingjing, are you sure you really like me?"
Xu Nian looked directly into Zhou Lingjing's eyes and brows; without a doubt, his face was perfect.
Every detail is meticulously crafted; he is like a favorite of the gods, endowed with an impeccable appearance.
"Even you say that, how can I not like you?" Zhou Lingjing didn't understand why even Xu Nian would doubt his feelings.
“Zhou Lingjing, this isn’t how you show love. There’s no love in your eyes, only an instinctive possessiveness. Maybe something is making you mistakenly believe you like me, but you don’t truly love me,” Xu Nian said carefully.
"Niannian, do you also think I'm not me?" Zhou Lingjing let go of Xu Nian in despair, sat on the edge of the bed with a blank look in his eyes. If he wasn't him, then who was he?
What does his life of the past twenty-odd years even amount to?
Seeing that he wouldn't do anything too outrageous for the time being, Xu Nian carefully created some distance and said, "You're not yourself. Who told you that?"
“Pei Zhuo.” Zhou Lingjing always remembered the strange expression on Pei Zhuo’s face when he said those words, as well as the shock he felt when he heard them.
Zhou Lingjing didn't think Pei Zhuo was talking nonsense, because a voice in his heart told him that what Pei Zhuo said was true.
Most importantly, everything is not without clues. When he was in high school, he was clearly most passionate about scientific research, and he had already written down his college application choices.
Then he suddenly changed. He lost interest in scientific research and instead became enthusiastic about going into business.
Moreover, he was very successful in his business dealings, and all the difficult problems were solved for him.
Everything he thought and desired came true.
No one had mentioned it before, so he took it for granted. But now that Pei Zhuo brought it up, he started to feel that everything was abnormal.
“Zhou Lingjing, since you’ve already started to have doubts, why don’t you go and ask Pei Zhuo for clarification?” Xu Nian just didn’t understand. Aren’t people’s mouths meant for speaking?
“He won’t tell me that simply, unless…!” Zhou Lingjing’s gaze fell on Xu Nian, his expression somewhat ambiguous.
Xu Nian frowned. She understood the implication of Zhou Lingjing's unspoken words, but she disliked being used as a bargaining chip. "Are you so sure I'm that important to him?"
"Whether it's that important or not, you'll find out in a bit," Zhou Lingjing said, turning on his phone.
As soon as the phone got a signal, Pei Zhuo called.
Zhou Lingjing answered the phone calmly, only to hear Pei Zhuo's cursing voice on the other end: "Zhou Lingjing, you imposter, where did you put Nian Nian? If you dare to touch her, I'll fight you to the death."
"If I'm an imposter, then who are you?" Zhou Lingjing's gaze sharpened, and he let out a cold laugh.
"Who am I? I'm your father!" Pei Zhuo practically roared into the phone, his usual gentle tone completely gone.
"Pei Zhuo, you're asking for death." Zhou Lingjing's hand gripping the phone began to bulge with veins, a clear sign of his impending rage.
Pei Zhuo knew that offending Zhou Lingjing to the death was not a good idea, so he calmed his agitated emotions and said in a businesslike tone, "Zhou Lingjing, where are you now? As long as you don't hurt Nian Nian, I will tell you whatever you want to know."
“I’ll send you my location. You drive over by yourself, alone. You don’t want a fourth person to know about this, do you?” Zhou Lingjing threatened in a low voice.
"Fine, you just wait." Pei Zhuo gritted his teeth and hung up the phone. Worried about Xu Nian's safety, he immediately drove over as soon as he received the location.
