Chapter 346: You Better Behave (7)
Xie Qinghuan’s mood was particularly low, and she said softly, "Okay, I’ll notify you as soon as I have news."Qiao Mo slowly hung up the phone, still unable to accept this reality.
She pulled herself together and gently opened the door, peeking outside for a while.
Not seeing Fu Nancheng’s figure, she softly walked to a far-off guest room.
Carefully pushing open the guest room door, she locked it behind her, then quickly moved to the bedside to look outside.
A few black-clad guards were stationed not far below, not many people, standing like some pillars there.
Fortunately, this was a corner, slightly secluded.
So there was still some distance from those black-clad bodyguards, as long as she moved quietly, there was still a chance to escape.
Qiao Mo didn’t hesitate any longer and started to fiddle around in the room, twisting the bed sheets into a rope, planning to slide down from the window later.
After all, the building wasn’t too high, just two or three stories, so there was still a significant chance to run away.
At once, she didn’t care to wipe her tears anymore. She pulled the sheets over and started fiddling at the bedside.
But just a few minutes passed, Qiao Mo managed to connect the bed sheets and hadn’t yet decided where to tie them when she heard the sound of the door lock turning.
Her heart tightened, and almost instinctively, her movements halted, she vigilantly looked towards the door.
The sound of the turning lock paused slightly, with no further activity.
Qiao Mo’s face turned a shade paler, she snapped back to reality and immediately quickened her hands’ movements.
But just as she tied the bed sheet to the railing of the bed, she heard a beep, and the door was already pushed open by someone.
Facing that sullen face, Qiao Mo slowly moved her gaze away. Her fair hand still tightly clutched the twisted bed sheet and refused to let go.
"You want to see him that much?" Fu Nancheng’s cold voice spoke, his cruel gaze on her face was as chilling as a venomous snake.
Qiao Mo looked at him with red-rimmed eyes, and at the mention of Jiang Jinghao, tears welled up in her eyes: "Jing Hao is going to die... Fu Nancheng... he’s going to die."
Seeing the tears in her eyes, it felt like his heart was being gripped tightly by a massive hand, squeezing it until it was deformed and twisted... then squeezing out all of his life’s blood drop by drop... making it hard to breathe.
"Fu Nancheng, let me see him, please!" Qiao Mo grabbed his arm, her watery eyes filled with glistening tears.
But the man in front of her seemed to have a heart of stone, completely unmoved.
He grabbed her wrist and dragged her to the bedroom, tossing her onto the bed: "Don’t even think about it, even if he dies, you’re staying here today!"
A dizzying spin, Qiao Mo didn’t feel any pain from the fall. But the force on her wrist remained, the blue and red marks didn’t fade for a long time.
The door slammed shut with a bang again.
Qiao Mo shakily got up to open the door.
But this time, as soon as the door opened, she saw Fifteen standing there with two black-clad strong men, and they extended their arms to block her: "Sorry, you can’t leave here!"
"Fu Nancheng, you bastard!" Qiao Mo slammed the door shut heavily, leaning against the door panel as tears of anger streamed down.
A few seconds later, with red eyes, she ran to the coffee table and smashed the European-style peony vase onto the ground, immediately followed by the bedside lamp, water cup, and photo frame, all crashing to the floor with a clatter.
The cushions on the sofa and the bedding on the bed were also pulled onto the ground by her, as if still unsatisfied, she reached out and pushed the coffee table forcefully.
The neatly arranged coffee table instantly moved a bit, and if not for the lack of strength, she would likely have flipped it over too.
