Chapter 17: Trap
No police were called, and the matter seemed to have ended tacitly.
If we call the police, it will affect the filming, Bai Yuqing, and Dou Min.
The fact that the person who wanted to imprison someone was beaten half to death seems to have satisfied most people's belief that "good will be rewarded and evil will be punished."
Anyway, whether he can survive depends on his luck. No one wants to see how serious his injuries are. If he really dies, no one will care. It is because of his poor health that he did not survive, and it has nothing to do with Bai Yuqing.
Dou Min suffered some external injuries, including the collision when he was thrown into the cellar.
She was not physically violated, but that was not important. What was important was her psychological fear.
The crew borrowed a car, and Jiang Jinyue arranged for someone to send Dou Min and the male classmate away. He also used some family power to contact a hospital and a psychologist for her.
Everything seemed to be over.
In the evening, Jiang Jinyue was sitting in the room. He Shuishui asked her when she was going to take a shower, but she just kept saying wait a moment.
When He Shuishui asked for the eighth time, she seemed to have made up her mind and said, "I won't take a shower today. You go to sleep first."
He Shuishui confirmed again and decided not to wash, then turned around and went back to her place, but before she could enter, she was stopped.
It’s Bai Yuqing.
I heard that he almost beat someone to death today. Now when I see him, I am still a little scared. But after knowing what that person did, He Shuishui feels that even if Bai Yuqing beat someone to death, it was deserved.
At this moment, Bai Yuqing had lost the hostility he had during the day, and seemed to have regained the lazy and vigorous energy of his youth.
Looking at He Shuishui, he asked, "Has she finished her bath?"
It goes without saying who this "she" is.
"She's not taking a shower today."
Bai Yuqing frowned, "No? How can she sleep without taking a bath?"
He Shuishui lowered her head and turned on her toes. How would she know this?
She had only recently taken on the duties of an assistant, so how could she understand him as clearly as he did? He supervised her all day long, and it was as if she had two bosses all of a sudden.
Moreover, Bai Yuqing asks about some details of life every day, she is simply like a male mother.
On weekdays, he often joked with the crew members and looked like a handsome and charming villain, but when facing Jiang Jinyue, he started nagging about every little thing.
Bai Yuqing took off his backpack and handed it to He Shuishui, "Give this to her."
"What is it?"
"Some of the things she left at my house."
"oh."
Bai Yuqing took out another 200 yuan from his pocket and said, "Thank you for your hard work these past few days."
He Shuishui waved her hand and confiscated it.
"It's okay, I'll send it to the boss now."
He Shuishui returned to Jiang Jinyue's room, but after knocking on the door for a long time, no one answered.
Bai Yuqing obviously noticed something was wrong. He walked over, exchanged glances with He Shuishui, and said, "Just push the door open."
The door opened and there was no one inside.
They quickly found the bodyguard who was guarding the door, "Where is he?"
"She just opened the door and headed straight for the village, and told us not to follow her."
In the village?
She was going to the village, and there was only one destination - Bai Yuqing's home.
Bai Yuqing didn't say anything and ran towards his home.
***
After saying she would not take a shower, Jiang Jinyue still sat on the edge of the bed, with no intention of going to sleep. In her mind and body, she kept recalling Bai Yuqing's strong hug today.
What does this hug mean?
When he hugged me, my tense body gradually relaxed. Was it because of me?
What on earth does he mean?
What is his relationship with Dou Min?
Is Dou Min the person he wants to treat well?
But it doesn't look like that. There is no ambiguity between them. It's too innocent.
Just as she was lost in thought, thinking about all these things.
A "squeaking" sound suddenly broke into her ears.
She woke up suddenly and came to her senses.
It was a dark night and everything was silent.
This voice...can't be human, it's - a mouse?!
The memory of seeing the mouse came back to my mind.
Not sure if she had an excuse, but she pushed the door open and walked out.
She wants to find Bai Yuqing.
There is only one person walking in the night.
Alone.
First it was walking, then it was running.
The footsteps startled several dogs, causing them to bark wildly.
On this chaotic night, Jiang Jinyue rushed to Bai Yuqing's house.
This was the first time she walked this distance alone.
There was a knock on the door.
One, two, three times.
No one opened the door.
Until footsteps sounded behind him.
***
Bai Yuqing ran to the door, but there was no one there.
She...didn't come?
He was about to open the door to see if she was inside.
Late at night, amid the barking of dogs, noises came from the deserted house next door.
Bai Yuqing's heart sank and he turned and walked over there.
As soon as I pushed open the door, I saw that the door of the north room of the house was open, and the back door connected to the north room was also wide open.
His body moved faster than his thoughts. Before his brain could react, he had already rushed out of the back door like an arrow.
There was a slight, rustling sound of footsteps coming from the front, as if someone was walking cautiously. This subtle sound aroused his vigilance, and he could not help but prick up his ears and listen carefully.
After confirming that it was correct, he ran in the direction of the sound without hesitation.
His heart was beating like a drum and his breathing was rapid, but he didn't dare to stop for a moment.
Not long after, a blurry figure finally appeared in front of them. As the distance got closer, the figure gradually became clearer. A short and strong man was carrying someone on his back - Jiang Jinyue!
"Damn it!" Bai Yuqing cursed angrily. He gritted his teeth and quickened his pace again. The wind whistled past his ears, and the distance between him and the figure was shortening little by little.
Just as we were getting close—
“Plop!”
Trap, it's a trap.
This trap has existed for a long time and was dug to prevent women who were trafficked here from escaping.
But he was so worried that he forgot about the trap and fell into it.
It was intentional. The person who kidnapped Jiang Jinyue did it on purpose!
He was deliberately led here.
He didn't care about the pain in his legs when he fell, and stood up and tried to climb up.
But just as he moved, another person fell from above.
Bai Yuqing quickly stepped forward to catch it.
When you hold someone in your arms, the smell of their body can identify each other faster than the eyes—
It’s Jiang Jinyue.
It’s Bai Yuqing.
