"Are you alright?" A gentle male voice sounded in her ear. Sheng Ning looked over in terror, staring for a long ti before realizing it was Xu Mo.
"You...how are you here?" Sheng Ning said incredulously.
"Shh!" Xu Mo quickly covered her mouth, "Keep it down, the bad guys are having a eting." He gestured towards the place with the bonfire in the distance.
Xu Mo was captured earlier, and he’s timid, looking quite weak. Even the hired soldier didn’t bother much with him, just tied his hands, and even tied differently from Sheng Ning.
Sheng Ning had her hands tied behind her back with dead knots.
"How did you end up here?" Sheng Ning still couldn’t figure it out and asked softly, "Wasn’t it because of One Weekly?"
"I’m so unlucky." Speaking of his misfortune, Xu Mo muttered with a grim face, "Li Xia’s subordinates went to catch ng Ping, but ng Ping was taken to the detention center. The little fat man called to ng Ping’s office to discuss how to get him out, and that’s how I got caught by mistake."
"..." Sheng Ning looked at her sympathetically.
"I’ve been locked up here for a day and a night, and no matter how I explain, they don’t believe . Later, their boss Li Xia ca and proved I was the wrong person, but they still wouldn’t let go."
"Can we still leave?" Sheng Ning said, disheartened, "Since we’ve been caught, we must be prepared for sacrifice."
"But I don’t want to die."
Sheng Ning forced herself to be spirited and encouraged, "I don’t know about others, but I’m sure you won’t die."
"Really?" Xu Mo imdiately brightened up a lot.
"Yes! You’ll beco a world-famous fashion guru in the future, so don’t worry!"
Xu Mo was overjoyed at her words, "Is it like Against the Current?"
Sheng Ning was taken aback, then nodded, "Exactly!" Liu Yilan is a legend, and Xu Mo is too.
"Lean against !" Xu Mo helped her up, trying to minimize her body’s contact with the ground, "You’re pregnant; the cold ground isn’t good for the baby."
"Shh!" Sheng Ning warned, "Don’t let them know I’m pregnant."
"Rest assured, I won’t say a word."
The person on patrol heard a slight noise over here and walked over impatiently, "What are you doing? Trying to die?"
Sheng Ning hurriedly closed her eyes, continuing to pretend to be unconscious.
"No, no, I’m just shifting my position," Xu Mo explained with a smile.
"Hmph! Behave, or I’ll shoot you dead." The patrolman sneered.
"Got it, big brother, you’re impressive." Xu Mo looked at him with a gaze full of admiration.
"Disgusting, sissy." The patrolman left with a look of contempt.
Xu Mo made a vomiting gesture behind his back, "You’re the disgusting one, making want to puke."
Sheng Ning opened her eyes, "Have you scouted the terrain around here?" She was in stabbing pain and needed to escape as soon as possible, or she wouldn’t be able to protect the baby in her belly.
"No, I don’t know how!"
"..." She shouldn’t have counted on him; she could only rely on herself. "Listen to , if there’s an opportunity later, we escape, understand?"
"Okay! But if we run away, won’t they kill us?"
"I don’t know if we’ll be killed if we escape, but we definitely will be if we don’t." Sheng Ning said determinedly.
"Isn’t soone coming to save us? You’re the captain’s wife; surely soone will co to rescue you." Xu Mo thought nobody knew he’d been caught, so he thought he was dood this ti.
