The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 489

Chapter 489 -458, Recognizing the Situation_1

Sun Changze glanced at the rapidly approaching carriage before quickly averted his gaze. Seeing his cousin still craning his neck to look, he immediately slapped his head, “When you’re away from home, don’t be overly curious.”

Sun Changmao retracted his neck with a sheepish smile.

At that moment, the sound of a ship’s horn carried over, and as Sun Changze and the others turned their heads, they saw a cargo ship swiftly heading their way.

Upon seeing the tall and burly men standing on the deck, Sun Changze rapidly said to his relatives, “Start the boat, quick!”

The boat quickly set off, crossing paths with the oncoming cargo ship after just a few meters.

Once the cargo ship had passed, Sun Changmao tugged on Sun Changze’s sleeve and whispered, “Changze brother, those people on the boat looked like they were from the underworld; I saw they all had knives hanging from their waists.”

...

Sun Changze’s brow furrowed slightly, “Some things, it’s better to keep to yourself and not speak of.” After saying this, he turned back to look at the cargo ship.

At this point, the cargo ship had slowly docked at the pier, and the carriage they had just seen also stopped on the dock.

“Have you captured the person?”

“Yes, captured!”

As soon as the carriage stopped, Daohua and Dong Yuanyao considered how they might escape. Before they could devise a plan, they heard voices outside.

As the sound approached from the distance, both of them quickly lay down again, feigning unconsciousness.

With a ‘creak,’ the door of the carriage was opened.

Seeing the four young ladies inside the carriage, the one-eyed strong man was taken aback, “Why have you captured four? Weren’t we only supposed to capture the young ladies from the Jiang and Chen families?”

“We didn’t want to take extra, but the other two were always with the Jiang and Chen young ladies. To avoid complications, we bound them along,” they explained.

Upon hearing this, both Daohua and Dong Yuanyao cursed their bad luck internally.

The one-eyed strong man waved his hand dismissively, “Fine, fine, since they’ve been captured, take them all.” As he raised his hand to signal his men to bring down the captives, he noticed one of the girls in the carriage twitching her eyelashes. His eyes immediately narrowed.

“Since you’re awake now, come down by yourself!”

At these words, both Daohua and Dong Yuanyao trembled inside.

Had they been discovered?

Although both were extremely nervous, neither of them moved.

Both guessed that the kidnappers were probably bluffing them. As long as they continued to feign unconsciousness, they could lower the kidnappers’ guard, increasing their chance for escape.

Seeing no movement from inside the carriage, the one-eyed strong man spoke up again, “You are all daughters of wealth and rank. Since you’re unwilling to come down yourselves, I’ll have my men come and ‘assist’ you.”

He knew that young ladies from noble families were extremely concerned with their reputation and would not allow an unrelated man to touch them.

Sure enough, the moment his words fell, the purple-clad young lady with the trembling eyelashes began to climb out, her face pale and her body shaking.

Upon seeing this, a cold smirk instantly played upon the lips of the one-eyed strong man. Humph, a sheltered young noblewoman thought she could feign unconsciousness under his watchful eye!

However, the very next moment, the one-eyed strong man’s face stiffened.

Another girl from inside the carriage climbed out.

Daohua and Dong Yuanyao, still pretending to be unconscious, sensed that Jiang Wanying and Chen Jiarou were getting up, and with a resigned sigh, they too slowly rose to their feet.

Seeing all four young ladies in the carriage now awake, the one-eyed strong man was taken aback; he had only noticed one!

Damn it, these scheming women of the inner courtyards! They were so skilled at deception that even he had been fooled.

The one-eyed strong man glanced at Daohua, Dong Yuanyao, and Jiang Wanying, then shot a fierce look at the two big men driving the carriage.

The drivers were also frightened; it was fortunate they had sealed the carriage windows beforehand, otherwise the captives they had worked so hard to catch might have escaped.

“What are you standing around for? Hurry up and get out, or do you need us to help you?” the bald-headed man driving the carriage could not hold back as he scolded fiercely.

Hearing this, Chen Jiarou and Jiang Wanying immediately shivered and disembarked from the carriage, followed closely by Daohua and Dong Yuanyao.
