Chapter 260 Villa (9) - Failed Escape
Just when Ning Shu was completely clueless, she suddenly touched the communicator in her pocket.
She realized she had overlooked something: she hadn't seen Si Zhong specifically activate the barrier for Xiao Man these past few days.
How does she manage to come and go so freely?
Could it be that she possesses something that can activate the barrier on its own, or that the barrier is ineffective against Xiaoman for some reason?
If such a thing really exists, what would it be?
She took the communicator out of her pocket and looked at it, unsure if it was the right thing.
Ning Shu went back and searched Xiao Man's body again. Besides the communicator, she also found a bracelet on her.
Regardless of whether it was this thing or not, she took it off and put it on her wrist, also putting on the communicator as well.
After putting on the protective gear, we arrived at the main gate, which is the exit from the villa.
If it is indeed these two things on her that are working, then she should be able to leave.
She opened the door and saw the perfect sunlight streaming in.
At this moment, she is separated from freedom by only a door.
Ning Shu took a deep breath, took a few steps back, ran, and jumped as she approached the gate.
She...successfully!
She successfully left the villa!
Upon landing, she was overjoyed and immediately took off running, but suddenly remembered the communicator and bracelet on her wrist.
She quickly took them off, threw them on the ground, and then ran freely like the wind.
But the smile on her face froze the next moment.
Because Si Zhong was sitting in an SUV in front of her, staring at her with an unfriendly expression.
Ning Shu slowed down as she ran, not expecting Si Zhong to have returned just in time.
No, she didn't hear the car engine, so he didn't just happen to come back; he'd been waiting for her here all along.
Cunning, so incredibly cunning!
He actually tested her!
And she was just tested and found out.
Ning Shu hesitated for a moment. She had already come out; how could she give up halfway?
With a quick glance, he noticed other villas nearby.
If she runs along the paths between those villas, he'll have a hard time keeping up.
Although the paths between the villas are wide enough for several cars to pass, he might not know which direction she was going.
More forks in the road mean more opportunities and a greater chance of escape.
Ning Shu acted on her idea immediately, changing direction and running into the villa complex instead of the main road.
Si Zhong was already angry when he saw her actually leave the villa, and he was even angrier when he saw her running towards the villa complex.
He saw right through her little scheme. Did she really think she could get rid of him like that?
All I can say is that she was too naive.
He started the car and drove in the direction she had gone.
Ning Shu's idea was correct, but she overlooked one thing: the villas in the villa complex were spaced far apart in all directions.
Players who choose to stay here have high privacy requirements, and ample space is essential.
Therefore, no matter which direction Ning Shu went, Si Zhong could always follow closely behind.
Just when Ning Shu thought she could shake off Si Zhong, his car would suddenly appear.
After this happened several times, she realized that the other party was playing her for a fool.
Once Ning Shu understood, she suddenly stopped and stood there panting.
She stopped running away; she couldn't escape anyway, so why humiliate herself?
Si Zhong saw her stop in one place, her originally tightly pursed lips slightly curved, seemingly a smile, but the smile didn't actually reach her eyes.
He stopped not far from Ning Shu, still sitting in the car watching her.
His expressionless face made it impossible for Ning Shu to guess his mood.
If it were her, she probably wouldn't be in a good mood either, so she felt like she was doomed.
After Ning Shu calmed down, Si Zhong got out of the car.
As she watched him slowly walk towards her, Ning Shu's heart pounded wildly.
She was very nervous, and her palms were sweating.
Si Zhong finally walked up to her and looked down at her.
The questioning gaze was like a mountain pressing down on her, making it hard for her to breathe.
"Have I been bad to you? Why did you run away?"
This has nothing to do with whether it's good or bad, okay?
Ning Shu trembled slightly, but decided to answer truthfully, hoping the other party would take pity on her.
"It's just that... a forced relationship won't be happy. I... I still want to go back and be with my teammates."
After a moment of silence, Si Zhong suddenly smiled:
Does it matter if the melon is sweet or not? As long as it quenches your thirst, that's all that matters. Besides, your teammate is already dead.
He paused for a moment, as if he had thought of something, "Wait, they're not all dead, right? Should I go and kill them all?"
That way you won't have any teammates, and you can stay by my side without worry.
This... is really unnecessary.
Ning Shu lowered her head and murmured like a child who had made a mistake, "You only know how to bully me."
Si Zhong didn't hear clearly, his tone still icy: "What did you say?"
Ning Shu suddenly burst into tears, looked up at Si Zhong and yelled, "All you ever do is bully me!"
She was so scared that she couldn't stop crying.
Si Zhong originally wanted to teach her a lesson, but seeing her crying so miserably, his heart suddenly softened.
"Get in the car."
He held her hand, his tone still cold, but his attitude had actually softened somewhat.
Ning Shu wiped away her tears with her remaining hand as she staggered along.
Si Zhong opened the car door and shoved Ning Shu into the car.
I buckled her seatbelt, closed the door, walked around the front of the car, and got into the driver's seat.
He started the car with a cold expression and drove towards his villa.
Suddenly, the car stopped.
Ning Shu's tears were still wet, and she didn't understand why she had stopped.
Si Zhong: "Pick up the things."
Ning Shu was puzzled. Had something fallen down just now? She hadn't noticed.
She looked down under the seat, searching for something that had fallen, but instead heard Si Zhong say, "Open the car door."
Ning Shu obediently did as instructed, looking completely bewildered. But as soon as she opened the car door, her expression suddenly froze.
She saw the communicator and bracelet that she had thrown away lying on the ground.
Si Zhong's location was so accurate; he could see it as soon as he opened the car door.
This is a blatant mockery of her previous behavior.
Ning Shu didn't dare to breathe loudly and bent down to pick it up.
As a result, I got stuck on the seatbelt, so I quickly unbuckled it and picked up my things.
But once she had the item in her hands, she didn't know what to do, and in the end, she handed it to Si Zhong with trembling hands.
Si Zhong didn't take it, coldly tossing out a sentence: "Return it back the way it was taken."
Ning Shu was taken back to the villa by him, where Xiao Man was still lying on the ground.
Si Zhong seemed not to notice. After entering the house, he sat on the sofa and stared at Ning Shu's every move.
Ning Shu remembered what he had said before and silently put the communicator and bracelet back on Xiao Man's wrist.
After doing all this, she stood silently to the side, like a child being punished for doing something wrong.
Si Zhong suddenly beckoned with his finger: "Come here."
Ning Shu panicked, but after thinking about it, she realized that it was not a good time to provoke him, so she could only slowly walk towards him.
