Chapter 456: 455 knows she is very important to you
On the plane, Wen Ran had not closed her eyes at all.
Mo Xiuchen saw her concerns and felt them in his heart. Each time he tried to convince her to sleep for a while, she was not sleepy but deep in her thoughts.
Seeing her like this, Mo Xiuchen couldn’t calm down either.
“Mo Xiuchen, if you are tired, you can take a nap. You don’t have to worry about me.”
“I’ll stay with you.”
Mo Xiuchen’s voice was soft and gentle. If she wouldn’t sleep, how could he fall asleep?
“Ranran, if you have any thoughts, tell me, okay?”
On this early morning flight, many passengers were asleep making the first-class cabin exceptionally quiet.
Mo Xiuchen spoke lightly, but in the high altitudes, his voice was very clear.
Wen Ran shook her head. She had only one thought, and that was to rescue Xiaoxiao. Regardless of whether it was Xiao Wenqing or Wu Tianyi or Fu Jingyi, she would be prepared to confront them all. They could target her, but they absolutely must not harm her best friend.
Mo Xiuchen hugged her into his arms, murmuring softly, “Ranran, I know. Right now you’re thinking, even if Xiaoxiao was exchanged for yourself, as long as she’s safe, you’d be willing to. Right?”
In his arm, Wen Ran became rigid.
She tightly pursed her lips, not saying a word.
A pang of pain shot through Mo Xiuchen’s heart, his fingers gently stroked her hair, saying word by word, gentle yet firm, “Trust me, I will definitely bring Xiaoxiao back. I know, she’s very important to you.”
There was one thing he would never agree to.
Exchange her for Xiaoxiao.
The one Xiao Wenqing really hates was him. Over the years, she had failed countless times in her attempts to kill him. Now that she knew his weakness, how could she not exploit it?
Since her ultimate goal was him, how could he let her hurt the woman he loved.
Wen Ran’s eyes were slightly moist. Her emotions were surging inside her like a tide, beating against every nerve. Looking into Mo Xiuchen’s deep, tranquil eyes, she extended her arms and hugged him tightly.
Mo Xiuchen was slightly startled. He leaned down and kissed her forehead. “Ranran, don’t be afraid, Xiao Wenqing will not harm Xiaoxiao. Listen to me, get some sleep first. After we land, you need to comfort Xiaoxiao’s mother and there won’t be time to rest.”
His eyes were filled with concern for her. Even if she didn’t look at his eyes, she could feel it clearly from his words. But she couldn’t fall asleep.
As long as she thought about Xiaoxiao now under Xiao Wenqing’s control, an inexplicable pain welled up in her heart.
Xiao Wenqing had not left G City with Bai Xiaoxiao.
Ever since Bai Xiaoxiao was kidnapped, all exits from G City have been under strict inspection. As a fugitive herself, she couldn’t leave with Bai Xiaoxiao and therefore she had no intention of leaving.
In the beginning, she had not thought of catching Bai Xiaoxiao personally.
Two days ago, she suddenly received a call from Wu Tianyi, warning that the police were heading to her place, urging her to escape immediately.
It was too late to leave by car at that point.
In order to escape, she didn’t hesitate to cut her hair and smear shoe polish all over her face. Lastly, she wore a shabby clothes and disguised herself as a mad beggar. Only then did she manage to escape the police’s scrutiny, and decided to head directly to G City.
After spending a day and a night figuring out Bai Xiaoxiao’s routine in G City, knowing that she visited the hospital daily for physiotherapy, she seized the opportunity to kidnap her while she was on her way home.
Bai Xiaoxiao, who was already handicapped and immobile, had no means of escape.
At this moment, Xiaoxiao was tied to a chair in an old house. She couldn’t escape on her own. After working hard for two days, Xiao Wenqing decided to retire early that night. Before she retired, she left Bai Xiaoxiao in the care of two of Wu Tianyi’s men.
“Even if we let her go, she can’t escape, let alone while she’s tied down. Lets sleep for a while.”
At one o’clock in the morning, one of the men guarding Bai Xiaoxiao said to the other. The other man opened the door, took a glance at Bai Xiaoxiao who was tied to the chair, unsure whether she was asleep or not, and nodded, “Okay, but we can’t go sleep in our room. We might as well sleep in this one. She doesn’t use that bed anyway.”
“Let’s go.”
After discussing, the two men stepped inside.
Bai Xiaoxiao’s closed eyes did not open, it was unclear whether she was awake or asleep.
The energy saving light in the room was not only dim, but slightly gloomy. Under the dim light, the two men visually assessed Bai Xiaoxiao a few times and glanced at the bed next to her. The initial proposer had some unsavory thoughts.
He eyed Bai Xiaoxiao lasciviously. “Since we’ve decided to sleep in this room, might as well let her sleep with us. This girl is so pretty, I wonder if she’s a virgin.”
“You’re not thinking of… ” The other man was taken aback, glanced at Bai Xiaoxiao, then looked towards the door, lowering his voice to say, “We can’t. The boss said she’s only being temporarily held here. The goal is to exchange for Wen Ran. You know who Wen Ran is, right?”
“Of course, I know. She’s the woman who can’t conceive, the one rumoured in recent days. Mo Xiuchen’s wife. I’ve seen her on TV, not only is she very pretty, she also has a good figure.” The man’s gaze remained on Bai Xiaoxiao, seemingly comparing who was more attractive between Bai Xiaoxiao and Wen Ran.
“Yeah, the boss said, once we capture Wen Ran, we can do whatever we please. But this one is off limits. If you mess up the boss’s plan, she won’t let you off.”
It wasn’t Xiao Wenqing they were afraid of, but Wu Tianyi.
“It’s just a woman, the boss is overreacting. Even if we play with this one, we can still use her to exchange for Wen Ran.”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand towards Bai Xiaoxiao.
However, halfway through, his companion grabbed his arm. “Just endure it. Even if you want to play with this one, wait till we’ve exchanged for Wen Ran. If it comes to it, we’ll just tell the boss, not to let this one go, let us brothers have some fun.”
The man frowned, displeased with his partner.
Such a beautiful woman in front of him, but only for looking and not touching. He couldn’t sleep in such circumstances.
The boss’s order is absolute. This one move could only succeed, no failure tolerated. Once we capture Wen Ran, you can play however you want. If you behave, you might even be lucky enough to be the lead role, showing Mo Xiuchen how you torment his wife.”
Fearing his partner would be upset, he rushed to soothe him. They couldn’t take their chances with Bai Xiaoxiao now.
“Okay, we just wait. Once Wen Ran is delivered to us tomorrow, we’ll have plenty of fun then.”
After a stalemate for some time, the man finally relented. Reluctantly glancing at Bai Xiaoxiao, he walked over to the bed, threw himself onto it heavily, and closed his eyes to sleep.
The other man glanced at Bai Xiaoxiao before following to lie down on the bed next to his partner.
A few minutes later, the snoring of the two men filled the room. That was when Bai Xiaoxiao slowly opened her eyes, which had remained closed all this while.
