Chapter 82 (First Release)
The man's tone was too indifferent, and Ning Wanwan felt a strong sense of danger.
She had a premonition that if she were arrested, it would not end well.
The excruciating pain in her arm continued relentlessly. Instinctively, she refused to go out. After struggling a few times but failing to break free, she instinctively retreated further inside.
But no matter how much you hide, it's just this small space; there's nowhere else to escape to.
"President Jiang! Is this the person who sneaked in earlier?" The person in charge realized something was wrong, probably because they had made a mistake, and quickly tried to step forward to fix it.
He strode over quickly, his tone ruthless, "President Jiang, I didn't expect someone to be so bold! I'll send someone over to deal with this immediately..."
How will it be handled?
To destroy the evidence?
Ning Wanwan panicked even more.
Jiang Yuyuan gave a faint "hmm," but he didn't let go of Ning Wanwan's hand. An irresistible force came over him, almost dragging Ning Wanwan out.
It's like performing a preliminary procedure to eliminate a small mouse.
Clearly, unlike Mu Xijue who still had the leisure, he had no intention of getting into any complicated schemes. Now that he had discovered the problem, he wanted to solve it in the fastest and most ruthless way possible.
No, this can't go on! Feeling herself being dragged out and gradually exposed, Ning Wanwan clearly realized that continuing would only lead to an outcome she didn't want to face.
She dared not gamble on how Jiang Yuyuan and Mu Xijue would "deal with" her if they discovered she was the one who had sneaked in.
If the amusement park manager saw her being dragged out, then it was only a matter of time before Mu Xijue found out.
If Jiang Yuyuan sees this, he probably won't let her go, but at least he doesn't know her exact identity yet...
Although I'm trying to analyze these things calmly, my mind is actually a complete mess, and I can't think of a way to break the deadlock.
These things happened in the blink of an eye, and just as she was about to be completely pulled out of the confined space, a strong sense of fear surged through her, forcing Ning Wanwan to abandon those chaotic and useless thoughts.
Use the most instinctive and ordinary methods.
"don't want."
The girl gripped his wrists with both hands, pleading in a low, panicked voice that was so soft and faint that it could easily be ignored.
Jiang Yuyuan suddenly stopped.
"...General Manager Jiang," the person in charge looked at Jiang Yuyuan with some confusion.
"You can go out now," Jiang Yuyuan said, only saying that one sentence.
Although the person in charge was puzzled, he did not think that someone as capable as Jiang Yuyuan would have any problems. Since he had been given the order, he did not dare to ask any more questions and left the room with his head slightly lowered.
Jiang Yuyuan lowered his gaze inscrutable, staring at the girl who was still trying to shrink back under the control panel.
Then he reached out, his long, slender fingers clearly targeting Ning Wanwan under the table.
The man's well-defined fingers came into view, and Ning Wanwan was a little confused. Before she could react, she felt his slightly cool fingers pinch her chin.
Immediately afterwards, the man raised his finger upwards, forcing Ning Wanwan to tilt her head back, instantly exposing her face.
The girl's eyes were still glistening with tears from pain and fear. Her face was pale, her hair was slightly disheveled, and she had some leaves and dust on her clothes, probably from outside. She looked utterly wretched.
The moment Jiang Yuyuan saw Ning Wanwan clearly, his pupils contracted. This was the first time he had seen Ning Wanwan's face clearly, yet it didn't feel like their first meeting.
His gaze lingered on the girl's familiar features, his eyes resolute and deep, the coldness he had previously displayed dissipating considerably.
However, Ning Wanwan was completely oblivious to these small details at that moment.
The control room fell silent; you could hear a pin drop.
In the silence, Ning Wanwan recovered, and the tightness of the arm around her made her whimper softly again: "It hurts..."
Jiang Yuyuan seemed to snap out of his daze and released his grip.
Ning Wanwan clutched her still-painful arm, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Jiang Yuyuan did not immediately kill her.
I don't know why... could it be because I'm too weak, and the villain doesn't bother to make a move?
"Yes, I'm sorry, I came in by accident..."
She didn't dare rub her arm at this moment, and explained in a low voice, trying her best to create the image of an uninformed bystander, hoping it would have some effect.
Jiang Yuyuan: "Come out first."
Ning Wanwan was taken aback, thinking the villain would first interrogate her about what she had heard and seen. She didn't expect the other party to say this first.
She cautiously looked up, observing Jiang Yuyuan's expression, trying to guess his emotions, but his expression was too indifferent, and she couldn't discern anything.
But I doubt they'd kill her right away...
Ning Wanwan composed herself and slowly crawled out from under the table.
However, because she had been in a curled-up position for too long, her legs went numb, and her already twisted ankle was suddenly subjected to force, causing her to lose her balance and fall forward!
Then she fell headfirst into Jiang Yuyuan's arms.
Ning Wanwan: "!!!"
Ignoring her sore nose from the impact, Ning Wanwan tried to use her hands to support herself as she got up, but because she was lying in Jiang Yuyuan's arms, she had nowhere to put her hands and feet.
Suddenly, a numbness ran down her waist, as if she had been pressed down by an unknown force, and she ended up sitting directly on his lap.
It's very much like throwing yourself into someone's arms.
Ning Wanwan: "..." Aa ...
Her mind went completely blank; she was so embarrassed she wanted to die. Jiang Yuyuan, however, remained calm and made no move whatsoever.
Even though Ning Wanwan was sitting in his lap right now, he let her stay in that position without her breathing getting out of whack.
There was no sign of him being angry.
Ning Wanwan instantly thought of the description in the plot of the villain Jiang Yuyuan as always calm and rational like a robot, and couldn't help but feel that it was quite fitting.
From this perspective, the villain's temper is actually quite good.
Thinking this way, Ning Wanwan's hope of escaping this calamity increased considerably. She moved quickly and carefully got off Jiang Yuyuan, not daring to touch him even slightly.
But by then it was probably too late for Xiaoxin, because his clothes had been wrinkled and covered in dust from her fuss.
Ning Wanwan's gaze fell on the man's expensive-looking suit and shirt, which were now in a rather disheveled state.
She pursed her lips, a hint of guilt rising in her heart, and quietly looked away, pretending not to have seen it.
She was well aware that she had some dust and small, dry plant veins on her body from hiding in the woods and bushes outside.
However, at the time, there was no way to care about such a small matter, and I never expected that it would get Jiang Yuyuan dirty now.
Of course, Ning Wanwan couldn't say anything voluntarily, lest she anger the villain. She just hoped he wouldn't notice right now...
Perhaps her prayers had worked, because Jiang Yuyuan seemed genuinely oblivious to the matter. He straightened up slightly, his dark, cold eyes looking at Ning Wanwan.
Who are you?
He finally spoke up and asked.
"I……"
Ning Wanwan thought quickly, then hesitantly opened her mouth, wanting to continue making up stories based on her previous persona as an unrelated passerby. As for what she had seen before, she couldn't bring it up; this was not the time to try to get closer to her.
However, she felt that Jiang Yuyuan was staring at her face, as if scrutinizing and appraising her.
...They won't recognize her, will they?
"I just accidentally came in, I don't know anything..." she swallowed, her throat dry, and said softly.
The villain's gaze was so penetrating that Ning Wanwan couldn't help but shrink back, still holding onto a sliver of hope that he might not recognize her, since she had been wearing a mask the previous two times they met.
When we met before, she was always wearing her school uniform from A Middle School.
Ning Wanwan didn't want the villain to remember that she was a student at A Middle School, otherwise even if she escaped this time, it would be troublesome if he came looking for her in the future.
Jiang Yuyuan raised his eyelids to look at her, his expression indifferent, revealing nothing: "Is that so?"
"Yes, yes." Ning Wanwan became even more nervous, her heart, which had just calmed down, was pounding again, almost jumping out of her throat.
Jiang Yuyuan was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Have we met before?"
“…No.” Ning Wanwan denied it very quickly, trying her best to remain calm in her response.
A hint of a smile appeared in Jiang Yuyuan's eyes.
“We’ve met,” he said confidently. “Twice.”
Ning Wanwan: "..."
How can someone have such a good memory? They were both wearing masks the previous two times, and they can still recognize each other now!
If the villain really found out that she was from A... Ning Wanwan panicked a little; this turn of events was really dangerous.
"What are you saying? I don't quite understand..."
She was still unwilling to give up and tried to play dumb. Just as she showed a confused expression, Jiang Yuyuan's next words stopped her in her tracks.
"It's very dangerous for you to come here. If others find out, they won't let you go."
Jiang Yuyuan looked at her, his expression calm and composed. "I can give someone I know a chance, but strangers don't get that chance."
"So, do you think we've met?"
Ning Wanwan: "..."
Ning Wanwan answered very softly and with difficulty, "...I've seen it."
Jiang Yuyuan's expression remained unchanged; only upon close observation could one notice the subtle upward curve of the corners of his mouth.
“I understand,” he said. “You have this opportunity.”
Ning Wanwan slowly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling inexplicably comforted.
Although the villain didn't seem to intend to kill her before, she was really afraid that he might suddenly decide to "deal with" her like the amusement park manager did before.
Since the other party has said that, I should be out of danger.
"Can I go now?" she asked cautiously.
The girl's timid and hesitant demeanor resembled that of a small animal that would hide at the slightest disturbance. Unfortunately, this space was under the control of the predator, and no matter how the little animal hid, it could only be obediently dragged out and bullied at will.
It's good to stay in his arms like before.
Jiang Yuyuan's Adam's apple bobbed twice, and that tendency to lose control in front of the girl reappeared.
He wanted to investigate further, but unfortunately, now was not the right time.
Ning Wanwan was completely unaware, only seeing the villain still sitting there calmly and composedly, like a jade statue.
