Chapter 2593: Chapter 2593: Get Some Sleep First
Ruan Tianling clenched the knife and fork, a silent cold smile tugging at his lips.
Perhaps tomorrow, there will be a good show to watch.
Then, his gaze fell on the knife and fork in his hand.
Usually, after eating, someone would clear away the utensils.
But now, they deliberately didn’t take them away...
Ruan Tianling let out another cold laugh; weapons could only be used to their fullest potential in his hands.
Even if those people had knives, so what? In his eyes, they were still vulnerable.
...
The two finished eating and walked out of the dining room.
In the living room, Nangong Wenhua and the others sat together. When they saw the two of them come out, their expressions were a bit strange.
Ruan Tianling glanced coldly at them, "Don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to. If you don’t want to end up dead, behave yourselves!"
With one sentence, he successfully angered those people.
But there was a powerful aura of hostility around Ruan Tianling, and they dared not act rashly.
"Killing all of you would be as easy as flipping my hand," he said dismissively, leading Jian Yufei upstairs.
Returning to the bedroom, he shut the door.
Jian Yufei asked him worriedly, "What if they really make a move?"
Ruan Tianling’s face was cold, "Then kill them all!"
Jian Yufei found it somewhat cruel, but it was either them or us.
If she had to choose, she would naturally choose for the others to die.
"Maybe they’ll take action at night. You should sleep for a while, or you won’t have energy tonight," Jian Yufei urged him.
Ruan Tianling nodded, not refusing.
He indeed needed to replenish his strength in advance, although dealing with those people alone wasn’t an issue.
But while protecting Jian Yufei, he would be greatly constrained.
Perhaps the whole night, they won’t find peace.
Now, he goes to rest while Jian Yufei keeps watch, and at night Jian Yufei can rest.
Ruan Tianling didn’t try to play the hero this time.
He went to lie down and sleep, while Jian Yufei watched over him, carefully listening for any sounds outside.
...
Now, everyone here, whether Nangong Xu’s people or those imprisoned, wanted both of them dead.
Jian Yufei had to stay highly vigilant, carefully observing the movements outside the window, or walking to the door to listen closely for any sounds outside.
There was a gap a few inches wide under the door, and Jian Yufei kept her eyes on that gap.
As soon as someone stands outside the door, a shadow would appear in that gap.
After observing for an hour, Jian Yufei found no movement.
She walked to the window and looked at the scene outside.
Downstairs, many bodyguards were guarding; no one went in or out.
Jian Yufei pulled her gaze back to the gap under the door.
Upon looking, she found that someone was there—
Jian Yufei was on full alert, silently moving to the door and slowly crouching down.
Looking through the gap, she saw a pair of leather shoes.
The person outside stood for a moment, then walked away silently.
Jian Yufei let out a sigh of relief but didn’t dare to let her guard down.
It seems they already have a plan in mind...
Jian Yufei stood up lightly and looked at Ruan Tianling.
Ruan Tianling had his eyes closed, but it wasn’t the look of someone in deep sleep.
When someone is deeply asleep, their facial muscles relax completely, but Ruan Tianling just seemed like he had his eyes closed.
He didn’t dare to sleep deeply, even with her keeping watch, he still wasn’t reassured.
Seeing him like this, Jian Yufei became even more determined to keep him safe.
...
Downstairs.
Nangong Wenhua and the others had already discussed several methods to kill Jian Yufei and the others.
