Chapter 804: Kidnap


Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios


Did he not love her?


However, usually he did everything she wanted without questioning a word at all. He was even willing to give up on the inheritance of the Duke’s t.i.tle for her!


He fought with Madam Qiao for her and even when Madam Qiao did not agree, he was willing to leave the Qiao family.


She knew everything he had done for her. What he was willing to sacrifice.


He was the best and nicest man she had ever met!


Even she had been unknowingly touched by him.


However, she never thought that he would hurt her on such an important day because of Nan Zhi!


Xiao Ying scoffed, sparkling tears falling from her eyes as they drenched her lashes.


Her pet.i.te figure took a few steps back.


“If I said that you going to look for Nan Zhi and not having our wedding ceremony now, means that we won’t get married at all, will you still go?”


She looked extremely pitiful, as if she was completely hurt.


Qiao Yanze stared at her, his heart clenching terribly.


“Xiao Ying…”


Xiao Ying interrupted him as she cried, “I know your answer already. To you, our child and me are not as important as Nan Zhi is. Qiao Yanze, remember this, you will definitely regret it if you don’t hold the wedding ceremony now…”


Madam Qiao walked over, glaring at Xiao Ying coldly as she scolded, “How are you so confident that our Qiao Yanze only wants a poor girl like you? He’s going to look for his niece right now, but you’re using your child and yourself to threaten and blackmail him. This sort of pettiness is a jinx in every family!”


“Mom, stop saying that to Xiao Ying!” Qiao Yanze turned to instruct his closer friends, “Get your partners to accompany Xiao Ying while I go look for Nan Zhi first.”


Staring at Qiao Yanze’s disappearing figure, Xiao Ying had never felt so much despair before.


If the wedding ceremony could take place successfully today, she might…


But there was no ‘if’.


He had made his choice.


What was real love?


It was all fake!


Xiao Ying tore off her pure white veil, shouting painfully at the skies with red eyes before she pulled her skirt and ran out of the venue in front of everyone present, her face covered in tears.


Madam Qiao stared at Xiao Ying’s sad and disappointed figure, sighing helplessly.


This ending was something she had hoped to see, but she felt uneasy when she saw Xiao Ying’s pained appearance as well.


Madam Qiao got An Feng and Pei Xuan to calm the guests down, before she caught up to Xiao Ying. “After you give birth, I’ll give you a sum of money for you to leave and restart your life somewhere else.”


Xiao Ying closed her eyes, a scornful expression appearing on her tear-stained face.


Her body shook a little from the blow as she smiled coldly. “You’re thinking too positively. Why would I give you my child?”


“You’re pregnant with our Qiao family’s bloodline!”


Taking a step closer to Madam Qiao, Xiao Ying’s eyes were red and puffy, though her gaze was slightly scary and dark. “You will regret this!”


With that said, she left.


Madam Qiao had lived for so long, and what type of person had she yet encountered? However, Xiao Ying’s gaze earlier had scared her.


The gooseb.u.mps on her arms all stood up.



Nan Zhi’s consciousness slowly came back. She was currently in a dark, but seemingly moving s.p.a.ce. She could vaguely hear the sounds of the sea and a fishy smell.


She moved cautiously, noticing that her arms and legs were tied together to prevent her from moving.


When she opened her mouth, she found that she couldn’t, it had been taped as well.


She immediately furrowed her eyebrows tightly.


Was she kidnapped?


The person who kidnapped her…


Recalling when she was changing in the resting room, it was Nan Yao who had dressed as a cleaner…


Did Nan Yao kidnap her?


Nan Yao was dependent on the Pei family now, and if she was alone, she definitely would not dare do anything to her.


Then there was only one possibility.


Pei Xuan!


He must have been holding a grudge from getting beaten up at the resort the previous time!


However, she did not expect him to be so bold as to dare to kidnap her during Qiao Yanze’s wedding.


The place she was kept at now seemed to be a boat. It was dark, humid and had an awful fishy smell lingering in the air!


Nan Zhi tried to struggle out of the ropes, but they were tied too tightly and she could not loosen them at all.


Perhaps it was because of the drug, but Nan Zhi’s head was terribly dizzy and she felt weak all over as well.


Her thoughts jumped from one idea to another. It was useless to struggle out of the ropes here either, since it was impossible for her to swim back to the island, right?


After she got into such incidences too many times, Nan Zhi was surprisingly calm. Uncle would definitely come find her once he realized that she was missing!


The boat steered forward for a while more, while Nan Zhi’s eyelids were terribly heavy as she fell unconscious once more.


When she woke up again, she had not opened her eyes when she heard two people conversing. “Is she awake yet?”


“No.”


“Let’s increase the dosage of the drug in her noodles. If we manage to do this successfully, we will be rich!”


“Boss, do you think there’s any danger in doing this? I can easily tell that this woman is not an ordinary one!”


“What are you afraid of? We’re merely following orders after receiving money. When we get the money a few days later, we would have taken off already!” The man sighed in slight sadness. “But she’s such a pretty girl, I really want to know how she tastes!”


“Boss, that person instructed that we are not to touch even her finger.”


“I know that of course, but can’t I even think about it?”


The voices slowly trailed further from her.


Nan Zhi opened her eyes to look around.


It should probably be in the evening now, the sun seemed to be setting as the faint orange of a setting sun shone in from the window. She didn’t seem to be on the boat anymore.


The window was very high, and she could only see the light s.h.i.+ning in from outside and not what was outside.


Nan Zhi looked around the room.


This was probably a house that had been abandoned for a long time, the corners covered with spider webs while there was a thick layer of dust covering the desk.


All of the sharp items in the room had been taken away, Nan Zhi having looked for a while but still was unable to find anything that could cut the ropes away.


After about one and a half hours, that ‘Boss’ walked in with a mask on his face, before he tore off the tape on Nan Zhi’s mouth.


The skin around her mouth started to ache in pain.


He placed a bowl in front of Nan Zhi. “There’s a steamed bun inside, eat it yourself.”


After she was allowed to speak, Nan Zhi did not scream or cry. Neither did she s.h.i.+ver from fear. “How much did the person who got you to kidnap me, pay you? I’ll give you double that amount.”


The man scoffed after hearing Nan Zhi’s words. “Miss, people like us have our own dignity as well. I will not let you go even if you gave me triple the amount.”


“Then do you know what will happen to you after kidnapping me?”


Seeing a cold glimmer flas.h.i.+ng in Nan Zhi’s eyes, the man froze for a second. He did not expect a pretty and gentle looking girl like her to have such a cold and sharp aura.


After dazing out for a few seconds by Nan Zhi’s gaze, the man regained his senses and laughed out loud. “You don’t have to worry about what will happen to us!”
