Chapter 708: Waking Up
Jiahui woke up slowly. There was a hint of worry in her heart, and her mind was blank. It had been a long, long time since she had slept properly. She had been worried that the lunatic, Guan Tang, would kill her while she was sleeping.
As soon as she thought about Guan Tang, she jolted up.
‘No! I slept so deeply! Am I still alive?’
Jiahui screamed in fear when her hand suddenly touched something hairy.
Cheng Che hurriedly leaped up and hugged Jiahui. “Jiahui, don’t be afraid.”
Jiahui trembled as she pushed Cheng Che away. She quickly got off the bed and held a pillow in front of her.
Cheng Che, who was caught off guard, fell on the carpet, and the chair he was sitting on fell on his waist, causing him to groan in pain.
At this moment, Jiahui finally regained her senses. “Cheng… Cheng Che?”
Jiahui’s eyes widened as she looked at Cheng Che who was sitting on the ground holding his waist. Then, she rushed over to help Cheng Che up. She asked anxiously, “Why are you here? How did she get you in here?”
After Cheng Che stood up, he pulled Jiahui into his arms and hugged her tightly. “Jiahui, Jiahui, you’re back. You’re safe.”
Cheng Che knew Jiahui was still disoriented and highly stressed.
Jiahui was stunned.
Cheng Che let go of her and looked at her as he gently said, “Baby, you’re safe. You’re in my house, in my room. Look carefully. This is my room.”
Jiahui did not look around. She stared at Cheng Che wordlessly, unable to speak.
Cheng Che kissed Jiahui’s forehead softly. His warm lips caused her to tremble slightly.
At the same time, memories from before flooded her mind....
…
Previously.
After Guan Tang left the house, Guan Tang crouched down and touched the wall carefully, looking for a way to escape. Although she had yet to find anything so far, she did not give up. She believed the mechanism to open the door had to be around this area. After all, every time Guan Tang visited her, Guan Tang would sit within this area.
Jia Hui was confident that she would be able to take down Guan Tang as long as Guan Tang came close enough. Alas, Guan Tang did not let down her guard; she continued to maintain a distance between her and Jiahui.
Guan Tang was too cunning and careful. Not only did she not get close to Jiahui, but she was also very careful not to reveal anything.
At this moment, there was a sound from outside, causing Jiahui to retreat back to the bed in shock. She thought Guan Tang had returned, but when she looked outside, she was dumbfounded.
Jiahui’s first thought when she saw the two men was that they were thieves. The next second, she hurriedly pounded on the wall in front of her, uncertain if the sound would be transmitted outside. She did not care at this moment if the two men were thieves. As long as it was not Guan Tang, she had a chance of survival.
The two men in black looked around before they made their way to the bathroom.
Jiahui was stunned. After a moment, she saw Mu Chen standing at the door. When she reacted, joy and relief flooded her heart, and tears were already streaming down her face.
When the door to the secret room slid open, one of the men stood at the door and said anxiously, “Dr. An, let’s go! We’re here to bring you away!”
Jiahui did not need to be told twice and hurriedly ran out of the room that had been her prison.
“Mu Chen!” Jiahui was so excited that her tears kept falling down her face.
Mu Chen hurriedly supported Jiahui, who almost fell down. “Let’s go out first. Song Ning’s waiting for you in the car outside.”
“Okay, okay, okay,” Jiahui quickly said.
Xiao An appeared and brought Jiahui out of the house while Mu Chen stayed behind with his two men.
