Chapter 123: Is Anyone Staying Here Right Now?

“Save me—”

“Uu—”

The two men forcefully pressed Ji Nuan down. With practiced hands, one of them tugged both her elbows behind her back while the other quickly shoved a wet cloth into her mouth.

They were well trained, and their movements were professional; it was impossible to avoid their hands. Even though Ji Nuan was already wary, she was still held down within a second. Her lips were harshly covered, preventing her from yelling out a single word.

“Uu! Let… uu…”

In her struggle, she attempted to remember the distinctive features of her captors. However, she could barely get a clear look before her head was forcefully pressed down. Their rough fingers pressed against the weakest area on the back of her neck, causing blood to rush to her head and her vision to become blurry. It was difficult to even focus on what was ahead of her.

“Miss Ji, we are just following orders. Please cooperate with us. Otherwise, we won’t be able to promise that we won’t hurt you!” The man who pressed her down had a rough, heavy voice.

Ji Nuan stiffened in shock and did not struggle any further. The two men quickly brought her out of the door. They smothered her mouth tightly, preventing her from making any noise. They then quickly pushed her into the backseat of the black jeep. It was only when the door was shut that Ji Nuan finally regained the freedom to breathe.

However, the moment she lifted her head, she saw that there was a secure, metal partition between the front and backseat. It was impossible for her to see the situation ahead.

The backdoors and car windows were locked, and the only door that could be opened was quickly locked from the outside by those men.

Ji Nuan attempted to shove at the car door with no success. Regardless of how she beat and kicked, it could not be opened. The car windows were also tinted black, preventing anyone outside from looking in and vice versa. The scene before her eyes was completely dark.

“Who exactly are you guys? Let me out of the car!” Ji Nuan slapped against the metal partition with force.

She was not sure if the men in front could hear her, but regardless of how much she yelled or slapped, she could not hear anything from the front. She could only feel the vehicle moving away from the Yu Garden at a rapid speed.

These kidnappers, who exactly sent them?

The Yu Garden’s security was extremely comprehensive. Why would the house suddenly become empty? Did anything happen to Auntie Chen and the rest of the helpers?

Although she knew it was of no use, Ji Nuan continued slamming against the door with force.

There was no noise whatsoever from the front seat.

This meant that the partition was made of a soundproof material!

Ji Nuan slumped against the partition weakly. The boundless darkness and the fear that accompanied her uncertainty surrounded her. Her hands gradually turned cold, and as she stared into the dark, her eyes slowly narrowed.

Someone who could enter the Yu Garden without leaving any traces behind; without leaving any sense of disruption, the most likely suspect was someone from the Ji family or the Mo family. After all, they were the only people Auntie Chen would not suspect and the only people whom she would allow entry.

Recently, when Mo Jingshen reminded her not to move about too much and to return home early, he was already warning her of the possibility of danger.

When she recalled the scene of being locked in the bathroom, Ji Nuan had already sensed that Mo Jingshen’s father, Mo Shaoze, was relentless in pursuing his goals. So long as it was something he wanted to accomplish, even if he knew it would offend Mo Jingshen, he would not hesitate to use the most ruthless and cruel method.

Earlier, when she was being restrained, the two men had warned her that aside from taking her away, they did not have any intention of harming her.

This meant that the culprit was most likely Mo Shaoze.

Ji Nuan’s anxiety gradually calmed down. Regardless of what Mo Shaoze had intended to do, there was no way he would put her life in harm’s way. After all, the Mo family and Ji family were both renowned families in Hai Cheng. Especially with Mo Jingshen around, there was no way Mo Shaoze would dare to play with her life.

As the car traveled, the surroundings were completely dark. There was no way for her to know how much time had passed.

Every passing minute and second felt like years. Due to the stuffy air in the backseat, Ji Nuan gradually became dizzy and closed her eyes.

No matter what Mo Shaoze’s goals were, she needed to preserve her energy so she could deal with it properly.

She did not know how much time had passed before she finally heard the door being opened.

Ji Nuan quickly opened her eyes. As the light outside the car was too bright, she squinted her eyes but was still unable to gain a clear look of the two men’s faces. She was then abruptly hauled out of the car.

They used the same movements; forcing her to bend down while covering her mouth. This time, Ji Nuan was less resistant. She only released a soft whimper and was quickly brought in. Their actions were swift as they pushed her into a room.

Ji Nuan stumbled and fell onto the ground in the room. Her elbow knocked painfully against the floor. She stubbornly braced herself against the floor to sit up, raising her eyes to look at the doors which were quickly shut.

“Miss Ji, please stay here for the night. We’ll send you back the very first thing tomorrow morning.” The voices of the two men came from the door, followed by the sound of footsteps fading away.

Ji Nuan rushed to move up and throw herself against the door. However, it was already locked from the outside.

Before her eyes was a top-grade door made out of superior wood. Without any solid tools, it would be impossible to open.

Ji Nuan’s hand paused on the door. She abruptly turned her head back to scan the pitch-black room. Although she could not see clearly, when she fell earlier, she had felt that the floor was of a good texture. This room did not seem like a place one would typically use for kidnapping; it was extremely high-class.

She felt around the wall by the door with her hands. When she felt the switch for the room lights, she pressed against it with a “pa” sound.

The room abruptly lit up. The light was not blinding, but it was a soft illumination that allowed one to see the room clearly.

The sight before her eyes was of an extremely lavish guest room. It had all the living necessities and toiletries, and there was also a large bed in the middle of the room. Although it seemed very elegant and refined, from the way it was set up, this place was clearly just a guest room.

Right across the room, there was a window behind the curtains!

Ji Nuan quickly walked over. She tugged aside the curtains only to see the sky had already turned dark. It was very likely that the time was between 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

The window was not ceiling-to-floor but rather a simple, rectangular window. This room seemed to be on the third story of a villa. It was not exceptionally high, but the windows were made of good material and could not be smashed open. The only small section that could be opened was locked.

Earlier on, she had thought the instigator had been careless and left her a chance to escape.

The small hope she had was extinguished. Ji Nuan stood by the window looking out. She stared at the large pool behind the villa as well as the blooming flowers in the garden.

Is anyone staying here right now?

This window faced the back of the villa; which had no path nor any passing vehicles or people. Even if the room were lit, it would be useless no matter how she tried to call for help from the windows.

There was no way of escape whatsoever. Ji Nuan paced back and forth in the room.

Her gaze occasionally shifted to the darkened sky outside. At such time, where was Mo Jingshen?
