The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 490

Chapter 490 -459, Clue_1

The one-eyed man had been observing Daohua and the others, and after seeing the change in their expressions, he immediately understood the identities of Jiang Wanying and Chen Jiarou. Then he looked at Daohua and Dong Yuanyao, “And which families do you two belong to?”

Daohua and Dong Yuanyao glanced at the one-eyed man but did not immediately respond.

The bald man became annoyed when he saw them dithering and hesitating, and he raised his leg as if he was about to kick them.

Seeing this, Daohua quickly opened her mouth, “I am from the Prefectural Governor’s Residence of Ningmen Prefecture.”

Dong Yuanyao glared at the bald man and said gruffly, “I am from the Provincial Governor’s household.”

Upon hearing this, the one-eyed man immediately frowned.

...

Old Fan had said to avoid provoking local officials with no entanglement of interests, so as not to cause trouble for their master.

With this thought, the one-eyed man glared coldly at the bald man.

The bald man smiled ingratiatingly. He had not expected that a random kidnapping would net him the daughters of the highest-ranking officials in Zhongzhou and Ningmen Prefecture.

Knowing the identities of the four girls, the one-eyed man got up and left. When he reached the door, he said to the guard, “Keep a close watch and don’t step away from here.”

Considering the composure that the four young ladies had shown in the face of danger, he knew they warranted extra attention.

Once the bald man had also left, the four girls finally relaxed their breaths.

Although they appeared calm and silent on the surface, their hearts were filled with extreme tension and fear.

Jiang Wanying in particular, who had experienced an assassination attempt before, knew that those villains would truly resort to murder.

At this moment, she deeply regretted that she should not have left home with her parents just to see Brother Yang.

Dong Yuanyao looked at Jiang Wanying and Chen Jiarou, asking with a depressed face, “Those people came specifically for you. Do you know who they are?”

Chen Jiarou shook her head, her face deathly pale.

Jiang Wanying bit her lip. She had her suspicions but couldn’t reveal them.

These people were probably from the same group that had attempted to assassinate her and her mother last time, from Prince’s faction.

Daohua sized up the expressions of Chen Jiarou and Jiang Wanying; Chen Jiarou genuinely seemed to know nothing, but Jiang Wanying seemed to know something.

Thinking of the assassination attempt against the Jiang Family before, Daohua felt a sense of foreboding; could it be the same group? _{fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓}

Dong Yuanyao asked again, “Why would those people want to kidnap you? You should know this, shouldn’t you?”

Chen Jiarou and Jiang Wanying remained silent.

Seeing this, Dong Yuanyao knitted her brows and angrily said, “Yiyi and I must have really bad luck to be caught up in this.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Jiarou and Jiang Wanying both lowered their heads.

The guard, hearing the voices of the four girls speaking, strode in with a roughness, stuffing a cloth into each of their mouths, “Keep quiet, you’re not precious young ladies once in our hands. If you make any more noise…”

The man clenched his fist, making a ‘crack crack’ sound, and said with a vicious face, “Don’t blame me for not being merciful!” And with that, he turned and left.

Daohua smelled the stench of sweat from the cloth in her mouth, combined with the strong salty taste, and truly felt both disgusted and nauseated.

The other three felt the same.

Yet, even though they were feeling extremely uncomfortable, all of them endured it.

No one would test the mercy and patience of desperate criminals; after all, if they truly angered those men, they would be the ones to suffer.

Daohua purposely slowed her breathing to mitigate the nausea, and when she felt a bit less uncomfortable, her mind started racing, thinking about how to escape.
