I'm In Love With the Guy I Grew Up With

Chapter 510: Miss Ning, Fight Back

Ji Yebai dialed her number, and a mechanical female voice came from the system: The number you have dialed is temporarily unavailable.

A trace of profound pain flickered across his deep, inky eyes, fleeting, well concealed by him.

Does his Xixi not want him anymore?

...

Country G. Luolan City.

Ning Xixi’s clear, spirited eyes looked around for a chance to escape.

"Miss Ning, please follow me," said Lu Qinghe’s assistant—Lu Cheng, a woman 170cm tall with a black belt in Taekwondo.

Lu Qinghe’s words sounded nice, claiming she was sent to take care of Ning Xixi, but only Ning Xixi knew that Lu Cheng was sent to surveil her!

Ning Xixi couldn’t get the upper hand in a fight, so she pretended to comply and nodded, following her onto a black business car.

The car stopped in front of an apartment with a lawn and a small garden; the environment was quite decent.

Under the piercing gaze of Lu Cheng, Ning Xixi walked into the apartment.

Lu Cheng followed, then with a click, locked the door.

"Miss Ning, from today onwards, you cannot step out of this room. Don’t try to contact anyone back home, and don’t even think about escaping. Otherwise, I won’t be polite with my fists!" Lu Cheng spoke sternly, like a jailer lecturing a prisoner.

Ning Xixi opened her mouth, "What do you mean? How can I go to class if I can’t leave this room?"

Why did she feel like it meant she was going to be imprisoned?

Lu Cheng said coldly, "You can only stay here until I get further orders from the lady."

Ning Xixi felt chilled to the bone. No wonder, before she left, Lu Qinghe smiled so happily and asked Lu Cheng to take "good care" of her.

Taking care was false; imprisonment was real.

And here, she couldn’t contact anyone. If Lu Qinghe told Ning Jingshen that she was attending classes, Ning Jingshen probably wouldn’t suspect anything.

And Ji Yebai... with the Ji Family going through such turmoil, how could he have the energy to worry about her?

Besides, that day on TV, she heard him saying clearly, "Her and I, we have no relationship at all."

A dull pain throbbed in her heart...

Every time she thought of Ji Yebai’s figure, she felt a sour sensation in her eyes.

In an instant, she even lost the desire to escape.

Dazedly returning to the room, she curled up on the bed, helpless like a child.

Witnessing her dejected attitude, Lu Cheng was satisfied and made a video call to Lu Qinghe to report the situation.

Lu Qinghe giggled charmingly, "Leave that girl to you. As long as she’s alive, that’s all that matters; the rest is up to you."

"Alright." A bloodthirsty gleam flashed in Lu Cheng’s eyes.

After hanging up the call, she roughly pushed open the door to Ning Xixi’s room, looking at Ning Xixi as if she were a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

"What’s the matter?" Ning Xixi asked.

Lu Cheng smiled creepily, "Miss Ning, I’d like to have a little sparring session with you..."

Ning Xixi had a bad feeling and shrank back slightly.

Her reaction sparked the twisted craving deep in Lu Cheng’s bones; she strode over, grabbed Ning Xixi by the hair, and slammed her forcibly against the wall.

With a "thud," Ning Xixi let out a stifled groan of pain.

"What... what are you doing?"

"Miss Ning, fight back!" Lu Cheng snarled with a wicked laugh, slamming her several more times. Ning Xixi tried to struggle, but she was no match for the skilled Lu Cheng.

Her vision grew darker, dizziness consuming her as if the whole world were spinning...
