Chapter 94 (First Release)
Ning Wanwan hadn't dared to think in this direction, but the endless road she was walking on was something she couldn't help but take in.
Moreover, this kind of thick darkness that can swallow everything up is a great test of a person's willpower.
In the real world, there are no roads that truly have no end. But then again, this is a special space, so perhaps it really does have no end?
Ning Wanwan pursed her lips, unable to resist starting to imagine it.
If we really can't get out...
They'll die of thirst and starvation here!
Wait, wait a minute, Jiang Yuyuan might be a different story, but I can't beat him... Am I just a reserve resource?
Although thinking like this might seem a bit twisted, this character is a villain who is rational and cold to the point of being almost perverted!
Thinking of this, Ning Wanwan couldn't help but glance at Jiang Yuyuan a few more times, but since she was being carried on his back, she could only see the man's indifferent back of his head.
In such a dark and silent space, it seems that all negative emotions are amplified.
The images in Ning Wanwan's mind became increasingly bloody and terrifying. Finally, she couldn't help but bury her face in her hands, letting out a soft sob.
Jiang Yuyuan: "...What's wrong?"
Ning Wanwan was startled and shook her head haphazardly, not caring whether the other person could see her movements: "No, nothing, I was just thinking, will we die here..."
Jiang Yuyuan: "I was just thinking about this."
There was a hint of doubt in his tone.
Ning Wanwan always felt that if she told the truth, the other party could strike first and kill her in the next second.
So she quickly replied, "Yes, yes..."
Jiang Yuyuan: "Heh."
It's obvious there's no truth to it.
Ning Wanwan: "..."
Don't believe me? Ask away!
After carrying the girl for a few more minutes, Jiang Yuyuan thought Ning Wanwan, who was afraid of him, would stop talking, but suddenly he heard the girl sobbing.
"Jiang Yuyuan, will you kill me?"
Jiang Yuyuan said coldly, "...What kind of nonsense are you thinking about?"
There was no direct answer, but it seemed like everything was said.
Ning Wanwan shrank back, not daring to speak.
If you think about it carefully, you'll realize that if he really wanted to kill her, or simply use her as "food reserves," there would be no need to treat her like this, and even waste his energy carrying her.
However, in this kind of environment, sometimes you just can't help but think more and more.
Now, Ning Wanwan recalled what she had just done and felt a little regretful and embarrassed.
How could you be so bold as to ask him directly if he would kill you? It was a completely unnecessary question; he wouldn't even bother to answer it.
Ugh, why did I have to say something so embarrassing... Did I lose my mind...?
Just as Ning Wanwan was caught in endless frustration and internal turmoil, wishing she could dig a hole and bury herself, she suddenly heard Jiang Yuyuan say two words.
"Won't."
Ning Wanwan raised her head, somewhat confused: "...What?"
Jiang Yuyuan: "I won't kill you."
He patiently repeated it, his voice still calm and indifferent, but Ning Wanwan inexplicably detected a hint of helplessness in his voice.
Ning Wanwan: "...Oh, oh."
Suddenly receiving a promise from the villain, Ning Wanwan was at a loss and mumbled a couple of responses, unsure of what to say.
Jiang Yuyuan: "So, don't think about those unnecessary things."
The man's voice was cold and indifferent, but in this environment, it was a good remedy for calming emotions.
Ning Wanwan: "..."
Ning Wanwan: "...Okay."
After Ning Wanwan obediently responded, she couldn't help but glance at Jiang Yuyuan after a while, secretly observing his expression.
Seriously, isn't the villain a little too calm?
He should know this place well, right? He should know how to get out.
But he was just leading her forward, which made Ning Wanwan unsure again.
She had been craning her neck to look ahead for a long time, until her neck ached terribly. The darkness ahead remained unchanged. Ning Wanwan hesitated for a moment, then slowly lowered her head.
In that case, her face was almost buried in Jiang Yuyuan's back.
This feeling, as if you're being enveloped by the other person's aura, is a bit strange.
Ning Wanwan held back for a few seconds but couldn't help herself. She raised her head, adjusted her posture slightly, rested her chin on his shoulder, and then slowly let out a sigh of relief.
That's much better.
Jiang Yuyuan felt the girl on his back moving around. Although she was trying her best to restrain herself and was only adjusting herself carefully, how could he not feel it when their bodies were pressed tightly together?
The man lowered his eyes and continued walking forward with steady steps, letting the girl adjust herself to find a more comfortable position.
Jiang Yuyuan paused slightly when the girl finally calmed down and stopped moving.
In this position, the girl's breath gently brushed against his neck.
It felt like a soft feather was gently, almost imperceptibly, brushing back and forth.
Jiang Yuyuan has always disliked anything outside his control, especially something as sensitive as his neck.
However, this feeling is somewhat different from the usual situation where I am threatened.
It itches so much, and I really want to yank that feather out of my control and hold it in my palm, so that it can no longer play with me as it pleases.
Jiang Yuyuan frowned and gradually slowed his pace.
Ning Wanwan was oblivious, her chin resting on his shoulder, still staring intently ahead with wide eyes, trying to catch something different in the thick darkness.
Jiang Yuyuan: "You..."
Ning Wanwan: "Mmm"
Ning Wanwan waited for a while, only to hear Jiang Yuyuan say this one word, and then not continue. She turned her head in confusion, only to see Jiang Yuyuan's cold, jade-carved profile.
He glanced at her, seemingly pondering something without speaking.
Is there something you can't say?
Ning Wanwan hesitated for a moment, then her gaze gradually moved down to his neck.
Jiang Yuyuan's skin was pale and cold, and his whole person was icy. The part of his neck that was exposed from his suit and shirt was also pale. Ning Wanwan looked at him for a while and then suddenly realized.
I'm too close to their vital areas! The neck is such an important spot, and if I'm right there, the villain is bound to have a problem with it!
Having figured this out, Ning Wanwan wisely shrank her head, trying to stay as far away from the other person's neck as possible.
However, this caused her body to tilt again, and she gradually lost her balance on Jiang Yuyuan's back, starting to slide down again.
Jiang Yuyuan: "...What are you doing?"
Ning Wanwan: "It's nothing... I'm sorry!"
I apologized sincerely.
Jiang Yuyuan didn't say anything. He held her knees and pushed her back up, turning Ning Wanwan back onto his back.
"Don't move." He seemed to sigh silently.
Ning Wanwan: "...Okay."
Next, she obediently stopped moving, but deliberately softened her breathing, so Jiang Yuyuan no longer felt the slight tickling sensation on his neck.
But he couldn't calm down that inexplicable restlessness.
Fortunately, it can be restrained and controlled.
Jiang Yuyuan was somewhat satisfied, but not entirely satisfied.
There seemed to be no reason to stop here, so Jiang Yuyuan took a step forward and continued walking.
The girl's hair was slightly disheveled, swaying back and forth, and because of the very close distance, he could smell a faint scent of shampoo.
It's faint and subtle, not particularly pleasant or alluring, yet it always makes you unconsciously seek out that trace of it.
But soon, seemingly realizing that her hair was obstructing her view, the girl on her back quickly retied her hair.
Jiang Yuyuan didn't speak, but continued walking forward without stopping. The sound of his footsteps was very rhythmic, and for a moment it seemed that the world was only filled with this sound.
However powerful it may be, physical strength is lost very quickly under such circumstances.
Still...still without end.
Ning Wanwan bit her lip nervously.
Is their approach of continuing like this a mistake? Perhaps it would be better to stay put and conserve energy.
Maybe if they hold out long enough, someone outside will find them and rescue them.
Moreover, at this moment, Ning Wanwan smelled a faint scent of blood again, and she suspected that Jiang Yuyuan might be injured.
If I make the wounded person continue to carry me... then I'd be going too far!
"Jiang Yuyuan, are you injured?" Ning Wanwan finally couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
Jiang Yuyuan: "Why do you ask that?"
Jiang Yuyuan's evasive attitude made Ning Wanwan even more uneasy, so she pressed him, "Tell me first, were you injured or not?"
The stench of blood in the air grew stronger.
Jiang Yuyuan paused for a moment, seemingly realizing where he had revealed it: "A minor injury."
Xiao Shang Ning Wanwan didn't quite believe it.
"Put me down first." Ning Wanwan patted his back.
She thought it was just a small matter, but Jiang Yuyuan flatly refused, saying, "No."
Their steps never faltered; they continued moving forward.
Ning Wanwan was certain something was wrong. She struggled a couple of times, but Jiang Yuyuan forcibly held her down. However, perhaps due to the severity of his injuries, he groaned and had to release her.
The moment Ning Wanwan's feet touched the ground, the man's tall, heavy body slumped towards her.
Ning Wanwan: "!"
She quickly grabbed Jiang Yuyuan's waist and arms, barely managing to support him.
At the same time, she also smelled an even stronger stench of blood.
On my fingertips, I felt as if I were touching a sticky liquid with a rusty smell seeping from the other person's clothes.
Ning Wanwan trembled slightly as she used one hand to turn on her phone screen and looked at it in the dim light.
Sure enough, blood was flowing from the man's waist and abdomen, almost soaking through that dark patch of clothing.
Ning Wanwan carefully lifted a bit of the other person's wet clothing, revealing a horrifyingly large wound with flesh almost turned inside out, looking extremely dangerous.
Just looking at it made Ning Wanwan gasp, as if she herself was in pain and tears were welling up in her eyes.
Despite being so badly injured, he still had to carry her on his back... Ning Wanwan didn't know what to say.
There was no time to think about anything else. Jiang Yuyuan seemed to have fallen into a coma. The weight of an adult male was too heavy for Ning Wanwan to bear for long.
They quickly groped their way to a spot against the rock wall, ignoring the damp ground, and put the man down, carefully placing him against the side.
But what to do next? She's the only one left who's conscious.
Just as Ning Wanwan was feeling uneasy, she suddenly heard some faint footsteps behind her.
