The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities

Chapter 876: Chapter 876: Shi Qi, Shi Qi

In the cage, Youyou quieted down for a moment, but it was only just a moment before he fell into a frenzied state again, making Han Jing’s eyes sore from watching.

The anger in her heart was instantly ignited, and she turned around to Ning Shiqi and said, "Tell me, what is going on? Why has Youyou become like this?! What exactly happened to him?"

Ning Shiqi focused intently on Han Jing. Even in such a dim environment, he could clearly see the anger and heartache in her eyes. Yet even so, she didn’t suspect him, which stirred a bit of unrest within Ning Shiqi’s heart.

He really wanted to ask her, and he truly did.

"You don’t suspect that I did all this?" Ning Shiqi didn’t answer what was wrong with Youyou first; instead, he asked her such a question.

Han Jing closed her eyes before reopening them: "I’m asking you, what happened to Youyou?!"

She knew she shouldn’t lose her temper at a stranger, and besides, the most suspicious person here was Ning Shiqi. Their journey was rife with strange arrays, toxic flowers, and herbs everywhere, and Ning Shiqi’s special identity was enough to prove that he was the owner of this place. And yet, Youyou was trapped here.

But no.

Han Jing didn’t understand why such a terrifying intuition told her this wasn’t Ning Shiqi’s doing, even though he was the prime suspect.

However, her never trusting others inexplicably turned into being quite sure that Ning Shiqi was not responsible. On the contrary, he was taking care of Youyou. Had it not been for him, Youyou might have been in a worse state or even dead.

Perhaps it was precisely this inexplicable trust that made her speak with a bit of rudeness, because she genuinely couldn’t imagine how much torment Youyou endured here.

If Youyou, the strongest, is in such a situation, then what about An’an and Yun Feng? Are they truly still alive?

Han Jing really dared not even think about it.

Perhaps she wasn’t as strong as she thought she was. She couldn’t face them having any mishaps. Even the slightest bit of hope would suffice; please, please don’t leave her without any shred of hope.

Su Yu stepped forward and grabbed Han Jing’s arm, addressing Ning Shiqi clearly: "Please tell us the truth."

Ning Shiqi looked at them and sighed lightly: "Do you all want to discuss here?"

"I want to bring Youyou back!" Han Jing said resolutely.

She couldn’t stand by and watch Youyou stay here like this. Youyou is their family; he has accompanied them through such a long journey. She couldn’t just stand by and watch him like this!

But this time, Ning Shiqi didn’t agree: "You can’t take him away."

After saying this, he paused, then before Han Jing could speak again, he added: "At least not right now."

"Come out with me, and I’ll tell you what’s going on." Ning Shiqi originally didn’t have to manage their affairs, but in just those brief words, under such circumstances, Han Jing gave him that inexplicable trust, which made him unable to refuse them.

He had been lonely in this place for far too long, long enough that he had almost forgotten what it felt like to be trusted, long enough... that it had been several thousand years since anyone had called his name.

Shiqi, Shiqi.
