Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Zhou Xiaoli had been paying attention to her surroundings, so she noticed
Chen Dakun’s departure.
However, she still asked, “Where’s Young Master Chen?”
Liu Yuanyuan found an excuse and said, “Brother Dakun has something to do. He said that he would bring us to buy rouge later.”
“Coincidentally, I need to go to Old Wang’s Alley to meet a friend. Come with me, or we’ll be separated.”
Liu Yuanyuan racked her brains, trying to think of all sorts of reasons for Zhou Xiaoli to agree to go with her.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Xiaoli agreed immediately.
Liu Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment before leading Zhou Xiaoli to Old Wang’s Alley.
Old Wang’s Alley was an old alley. There were many dilapidated houses around it that had not been torn down. Most of them were abandoned, and only some old people lived here.
Hence, this place seemed exceptionally deserted.
Zhou Xiaoli was immediately on high alert when she saw the old alley.
Just as the two of them entered the alley, they felt a heavy blow on the back of their heads. Their vision darkened and they fainted.
When Zhou Xiaoli woke up again, it was already night time, and she was in a room filled with junk.
It was the room where Liu Yuanyuan was tied up in the illusion.
However, unlike the illusion, she and Liu Yuanyuan were not the only ones in the room.
With the faint light from the window, they could see several black shadows in the room. It seemed that they were all kidnapped here.
She had sensed that something was wrong after walking into the alley.
However, if she had dealt with them and chased them away,
Chen Dakun would definitely come out after the incident and make up a story to remove himself cleanly of any wrongdoings.
It was just a temporary solution.
What she wanted was for Chen Dakun’s true identity to be exposed so that he could not cause trouble in the future.
Therefore, she did not resist at all and played along.
As she thought about this, she took out a knife from her alternate space and cut the rope that bound her wrists.
Then, she walked to the side and found Liu Yuanyuan.
She gently called her a few times to wake her up.
Liu Yuanyuan was confused for a moment before she opened her eyes. It took her a long time to figure out the situation and she panicked.
Zhou Xiaoli whispered, “Shh, don’t make a sound. The robbers are outside.”
As she spoke, she pointed outside.
As expected, the sound of firewood crackling could be heard. The noise of a few men drinking and chatting could be heard.
Liu Yuanyuan nodded in fear.
Seeing this, Zhou Xiaoli took out a knife and cut the rope on Liu Yuanyuan’s body before pulling out the thing that was stuffed into her mouth.
Liu Yuanyuan immediately asked with a trembling voice, “What happened?”
At this moment, a woman’s valiant voice sounded from the side. “We met human traffickers. What else could it be?”
Zhou Xiaoli immediately looked in the direction of the voice and saw a figure moving in the corner. She moved over and whispered, “Dear sister, help me cut the ropes too.”
Due to the dim light, she could not see the woman’s exact appearance, but she could vaguely see a rough outline. It was less feminine and gentle, but rather masculine.
Zhou Xiaoli nodded and took out a knife to cut the rope binding her hands.
Liu Yuanyuan trembled in fear. She bit her lips tightly to prevent herself from making a sound and her eyes were filled with horror.
At this moment, the calm Zhou Xiaoli had become her source of strength. She subconsciously moved to Zhou Xiaoli’s side and asked softly, “We, we, what should we do now?”
Zhou Xiaoli said, “Let’s understand the situation first and see how many people are there.”
As she spoke, she quietly moved to the window and listened to the commotion outside.
Liu Yuanyuan followed suit.
The untied girl also walked over.
As soon as they approached the window, the conversation outside became much clearer.
With the light from the bonfire, they could clearly see the situation outside through the window.
There were three people eating meat and drinking wine by the bonfire. There was another one who was whistling and peeing not far away.
At this moment, the three people beside the bonfire started talking about their harvest today.
One of them, a fatty, smiled lewdly and said, “One of the two caught today is really good-looking. She doesn’t look like a village girl at all. Her skin is soft and tender. I’m f*cking reacting!”
The burly man sitting beside him also smiled in a greasy manner. “I really want to have a taste of that girl!”
“Don’t have any bad thoughts. Big Brother said that this kind of girl is worth a lot of money when we send her to the barbaric place!” Another bearded man reminded them.
The fatty snorted and said indifferently, “Those barbarians are really lucky!”
“However, we can’t touch this girl, but we can touch the other one, right?”
The bearded man said indifferently, “That’s up to you. In any case, we still have to put her back.”
At this moment, the person who went to pee came back. He whistled and said loudly, “Count me in. I haven’t touched a woman for a long time!”
As he spoke, he chuckled. “This young lady’s fiancé is really ruthless. I heard that he thought of a way to ruin the woman’s innocence in order to break the engagement!”
“Hahaha, what are you worried about? Come and drink. It’s only fun when you’re done drinking!”
Then, there was another noisy round of fist games and drinking.
At this moment, Liu Yuanyuan trembled even more.
How could she not tell who they were talking about?
She would never have thought that the Chen Dakun whom she trusted so much was actually such a person.
Tears fell one by one. If not for the fact that her lips were shaking, she would have cried out loud.
The woman at the side clicked her tongue and shook her head.
Zhou Xiaoli was afraid that Liu Yuanyuan would alert the kidnappers outside, so she frowned and scolded in a low voice. “Stop crying. If he hurts you, you can take revenge on him! What’s the use of crying?”
After being scolded by Zhou Xiaoli, Liu Yuanyuan looked at Zhou Xiaoli in a daze and forgot to cry.
The woman on the side also looked at Zhou Xiaoli. “Do you have a way to escape?”
Zhou Xiaoli nodded. “I’ve just thought of a way, but I’ll need your help.”
After a few pots of wine, the four human traffickers were satisfied. Other than the bearded man, the remaining three began to fight over who would go first.
After an argument, Fatty won and staggered towards the house.
The remaining two laughed lewdly and sat back down by the bonfire to continue drinking.
With the sound of the lock being unlocked, the door was opened from the outside.
The fatty didn’t even close the door and walked in impatiently. He rubbed his hands and chuckled. “Little lady, I’m here.”
At this moment, Liu Yuanyuan was pretending to be unconscious on the straw strewn all over the room.
The fatty was so excited at the prospect of what’s going to happen that he didn’t notice the number of people who should have been tied up.
After finding Liu Yuanyuan, he walked over with a lewd smile.
Just as he was about to pounce on Liu Yuanyuan, Zhou Xiaoli silently appeared behind him and pressed the shiny dagger against his neck. “Don’t move and don’t make a sound. Otherwise, I’ll cut your neck!”
Zhou Xiaoli’s cold voice rang out. She exerted force with her hand, and the sharp blade sliced his flesh open. Blood flowed down his neck.
The cold blade stimulated his skin.. The fatty quivered and instantly sobered
