If her persistent dream is about Zhu Qing'an's past, why not try using the methods from idol dramas herself?
Meng Qingluan raised her finger and bit down hard, causing a bead of blood to instantly form.
She silently murmured Zhu Qing'an's name and closed her eyes.
When she opened her eyes again, nothing had changed; she was still in the same spot.
Meng Qingluan was discouraged.
It seems there's no other way but to go with them.
She looked at the blood beads still seeping out, and with a pained expression, brought it to her lips. Since no one could see, she lowered her head and spit it back in.
The rusty gorilla flavor had just entered her mouth when, before she could even react, the world spun around her and she was plunged into darkness.
The scene before me became bright again.
She then discovered that she was in a strange and extremely dilapidated environment.
He looked down and met the gaze of Zhu Qing'an, who was bound hand and foot and thrown to the ground.
In her excitement, Meng Qingluan instinctively wanted to call his name, but as soon as she opened her lips, she realized that her own finger was still in her mouth.
She awkwardly pulled him out, not forgetting to warn him.
"This is an emergency. Kids, please don't try to imitate me and put it in your mouth. It's unhygienic."
Zhu Qing'an looked speechless, but still nodded earnestly to show that she understood.
Meng Qingluan did not rush forward. She could reach Zhu Qingan and help him untie himself.
If the kidnappers were here, they would find that the ropes binding Zhu Qing'an had been untied.
That's like going to the toilet in the dark—it's suicidal!
She turned around and looked around, and found four or five big men sitting around a table.
Several people were sharpening the knives in their hands, muttering about how they would live a carefree life after receiving the ransom.
Seeing this, Meng Qingluan could only remain still for the time being.
She squatted down next to Zhu Qing'an and comforted him.
"I'll untie you after they leave. Just bear with it for a while."
"good."
Zhu Qing'an's mouth wasn't gagged. He responded softly, his voice still obedient, but it had become more hoarse and deep, unlike his previous childish tone.
Hearing the change in his voice, Meng Qingluan turned to look at him.
However, in just one dream, he had grown from a little boy into a teenager.
He looks only two or three years younger than he actually is, and his figure is still very thin. The little baby fat on his face has faded a lot, and he is obviously already a teenager.
She unconsciously reached out and touched his head.
"I didn't expect that after so long, our An'an has grown into a little man."
Zhu Qing'an hadn't seen her for a long time, but he wasn't as excited as before; instead, he was more reserved.
Meng Qingluan felt that he was becoming more and more like Zhu Qingan in real life.
Zhu Qing'an looked at her and said in a low voice.
"My sister hasn't come to see me for eight years."
Upon hearing this, Meng Qingluan's hand froze, and she withdrew it.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know it would take so long."
She herself did not expect that the time span would be so long this time.
Zhu Qing'an shook his head.
“I don’t mean to complain about my sister. I want to tell you, sister, I don’t need to take medicine anymore. You came just in time.”
"..."
Meng Qingluan couldn't laugh, and the atmosphere became silent.
About a while later.
The kidnappers packed their belongings, got ready, and sat up one after another from their chairs.
One of them strode up to Zhu Qing'an, grabbed his collar, and pulled him up with a powerful force.
"Kid, your parents are here to get money to pay you back. You better shut up and come with me to inspect the goods. If you dare to try anything funny, I'll make sure your whole family dies here."
"..."
After saying that, he picked up Zhu Qing'an and carried her away like a chick.
Meng Qingluan followed behind them.
They walked out of the wooden house and along a mountain path for several hundred meters before stopping at the top of the hill.
At the foot of the mountain.
Meng's father also came with the people escorting the ransom. When they arrived at the designated location, they did not see anyone, so they stopped the car and looked around.
The lead kidnapper stepped forward, cleared his throat, and his powerful voice echoed across the mountain.
"Old man! We're here. Did you bring the gold back?"
The people below the mountain all looked up at the same time, and Meng's father responded loudly.
"All the gold you wanted is here! Where's my son?"
"Don't ask so many questions. Pull me aside so I can inspect the goods. What if you send me a bunch of brass?"
Mencius' father ordered his attendants to open the box.
"See? If you don't believe me, you can send someone down to check it yourself."
The lead kidnapper wasn't in a hurry; instead, he smiled and said...
"I love dealing with generous and straightforward people like you. Don't worry! I'm a person with moral principles. Since I've taken your money, I will definitely release the person. That's why I specially brought back your young master, so that you and your father can have some peace of mind."
After saying that, he waved his hand, and the kidnapper who was holding Zhu Qing'an pushed Zhu Qing'an forward.
Meng's father looked up and, although the distance was quite far, he could still see the faces of the people.
Zhu Qing was pushed forward by them with a blank expression. She only glanced at him once before looking away.
Meng's father was agitated, "The money has been delivered, shouldn't you release the person now?"
"Don't rush, sir!" The leader of the kidnappers put one foot on a rock. "What kind of deal is this quick and easy? Even in legitimate business, there has to be a give and take. We'll take the money and run away. We won't touch your son. You can come to the little hut on the mountain tonight to pick him up."
"you……!"
Meng's father's face turned dark. How dare these people go back on their word?
