Su Qianxun’s head was in great pain when she woke up. She slowly opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was Gu Mian, who was still unconscious as she lay beside Su Qianxun. There was a large patch of blood on her forehead.
Shocked, Su Qianxun immediately ran over and hugged Gu Mian. She called out nervously, “Mian Mian, wake up, wake up!”
She shook Gu Mian forcefully, and Gu Mian slowly opened her eyes. She looked at the woman before her. Su Qianxun’s blood had dripped down from her forehead along her cheeks to her chin, and the blood was already dry.
“Qianxun, you’re injured. Where are we?” Gu Mian’s head was in extreme pain too. She wanted to sit up, but there was very little strength left in her body.
“I don’t know where we are either, but we need to find a way to escape this place first,” Su Qianxun whispered in a firm tone.
Gu Mian immediately nodded. She was able to recall what had happened now. ‘I was buying fish together with Qianxun, and the fishmonger kidnapped us. The moment he took us away, there was a huge explosion at that place.’
Even though they did not know why that person wanted to kidnap them, they were certain that he was not a good person!
With great effort, the two young women supported each other as they stood up. They were about to flee when someone suddenly opened the huge door before them. A man clad in a black robe entered the place, and his gaze was as sharp as a knife as he stared at Su Qianxun. He fixed his gaze on Su Qianxun so intently that it was as if a nail was being pierced through her body.
Su Qianxun immediately realized that the man was after her. The man was really tall, and he looked at least six feet seven. He was extremely burly too, and his physique itself was frightening.
Su Qianxun immediately stood in front of Gu Mian to protect her as she stared vigilantly at the man.
“Not bad. You live up to your reputation of being Long Sijue’s woman indeed. As expected, you’re exceptionally brave,” Cassius suddenly said, and his voice was tremendously hoarse.
“You’re mistaken. I’m not Long Sijue’s woman… The only thing binding us is an agreement. If you think that I can be of use to you, I’m afraid that I’ll have to disappoint you! If you want to hold Long Sijue’s woman hostage, you should kidnap Lan Qingcheng instead.”
Being a clever woman, Su Qianxun realized that this man bore a grudge against Long Sijue, and he had kidnapped her here so that Long Sijue would do as he said.
“It’s okay. As long as Long Sijue will be obedient and hand himself over on a silver platter after I kidnap you, you’ll do!” Cassius was wearing a pair of black gloves, and he slowly raised his hands and clenched his fists.
Su Qianxun felt a chill run down her spine when she heard her voice. This man’s voice was really demonic. She looked subconsciously at Gu Mian, and Gu Mian was also looking at her. They could see terror in each other’s eyes.
…..
After Long Sijue and Tang Zui received the news from Si Mancheng, they immediately rushed to the market where the explosion had happened. Even though the fire had already been extinguished, the once lively market was now in ruins.
As Long Sijue stood in front of the market, his gaze was rather horrifying. He looked as if he wanted to destroy the whole world. Si Mancheng was explaining what had happened. He was blaming himself very badly.
“I shouldn’t have allowed those two young women to buy stuff at such a shady place. I really shouldn’t have…” Si Mancheng raised his hands and was about to slap himself twice across the face when Long Sijue stopped him.
“It’s not your fault. The other party had planned this. Even if we had managed to avoid it this time, it would have happened sooner or later!”
“Who the hell did this!? Once I find out who that person is, I’ll definitely reduce him to ashes!” Si Mancheng said furiously.
“Someone who’s seeking revenge!” Long Sijue felt as if a large hand was clutching his heart forcefully. He was almost unable to breathe, and he felt like he might suffocate at any moment.
“What should… we do?” Tang Zui finally said something. His eyes were red, and it took great effort for him to speak.
