Chapter 498: 137: Repeat, Li Xianxian goes to prison_5
Ni Yang said, “Bend your waist a little.” Mo Qishen was too tall. Ni Yang, with her nearly 1.75-meter height, only reached his shoulder. In modern terms, it was quite an adorable height difference.
“Okay.” Mo Qishen bent his lip, squatted slightly so he was even shorter than Ni Yang. Ni Yang just needed to stretch her hand out to pat his head.
Ni Yang easily leaned in to whisper in his ear.
Hearing this, Mo Qishen frowned and said, “No, it’s too dangerous to do that!”
Ni Yang took the tray from him, placed it aside, and pulled him towards the courtyard.
The courtyard was an open space of around ten square meters with a few flower pots. Among them was one with blooming jasmine, filling the air with their fragrance as a gentle breeze passed.
“Brother Mo, don’t worry. I will protect myself! All you need to do is cooperate with me.”
“No.” Mo Qishen still refused.
“What about this way?” Ni Yang stood on her toes to give him a quick peck,
“No, I can’t let you take such a risk.” Mo Qishen still refused.
Ni Yang took his hand, “Brother Mo, this little thing isn’t dangerous at all for me. Can you just help me once? Just once!”
Mo Qishen pressed his thin lips together without saying a word.
Then Ni Yang continued, “If you don’t help me, I might have to find someone else.”
Mo Qishen’s thin lips moved slightly, “Actually, you don’t need to take this risk. I can find other ways…”
“I want to use my own way!” Ni Yang cut him off determinedly.
Mo Qishen hesitated a bit.
Ni Yang continued, “Brother Mo, I know you’re concerned about my safety, but don’t worry. I know my limits, I won’t let myself get hurt at all!”
“But…”
As Mo Qishen was about to say something, Ni Yang stood on her tiptoes and silenced the rest of his words with a kiss.
The air went silent for a second.
Then, Mo Qishen took control, wrapping his arm around her waist. His palm was somehow burning, yet his lips were cool.
About five minutes later, he calmly let go of her and straightened his collar, “You need to be careful.”
“Yeah.” Ni Yang nodded, “Don’t worry about this.”
“Let’s go out.” Ni Yang grabbed his hand.
Mo Qishen held his breath for a moment, “You go ahead, I need to go to the bathroom.”
“Okay, I’ll go first.”
“Mmm.”
The bathroom was small but well-equipped and clean, with a toilet and a shower.
After a while, Mo Qishen came out of the bathroom.
“Brother Mo, did you take a shower?” Ni Yang noticed that his hair seemed a bit wet.
No,” Mo Qishen looked calm and explained, “The bathroom was too hot.”
“Oh.” Ni Yang nodded.
At around seven-thirty in the evening, the noodle restaurant closed on time.
Ni Yang was the last one to leave.
Since Little Ni Yun’s birthday was soon, she planned to go to the vegetable market.
A figure was stealthily following her.
Just as Ni Yang walked into a deserted alley, sharp pain shot up her neck. Then everything went black as she slipped into unconsciousness.
When Ni Yang woke up again, her hands and feet were tightly bound with ropes, unable to move. A rotten smell filled her nostrils.
Where was this?
Ni Yang tried to struggle, but the knots only tightened with her movements.
“Is anyone there?”
At that moment, the tightly shut door was pushed open from the outside, bright light flooding in.
Ni Yang realized she was in an old, abandoned house whose better days were long past.
