“Lan Baobao, why do you have to do this? If you are willing to stay with me, there is room for negotiation!”
“Room for negotiation? If I stay, will you let me see my child? Will you release Ye Ziru? I may be careless, but that doesn’t mean I’m an idiot! If I go with you, I will definitely never see my child again! I won’t stay, and I won’t go with you!”
“Look at your confidence. Do you really think you still have a chance to escape?” Mu Jiangfeng casually sat down by the bed, seeming too naive, thinking she could handle everything.
Lan Baobao didn’t want to think too much; since the beginning, there had always been someone protecting her and handling troublesome matters for her.
Now, she was alone. Falling into his hands, as long as Mu Jiangfeng didn’t help her, Lan Baobao would have no way to escape from him.
“Seeing you silent means you admit it? Baby, I have to say, you are really adorable, truly cute, even a bit silly. I’ve already sent people to watch over you; they are all professionally trained and won’t give you a chance to escape like last time. Moreover, those people only listen to me; they won’t help you just because you plead with them. In the future, there will be many people here in this villa to keep you company; baby, you won’t be lonely anymore.”
Lan Baobao’s face turned pale as paper, and her breathing became rapid.
Her body trembled as she stammered, “Mu Jiangfeng, are you… are you watching me die?”
“Die? If you keep resisting like this, I’ll make sure you don’t even have the strength to think about dying!”
With that, he stood up, glanced at his watch, and said calmly, “You don’t need to rush to answer me. I’m not such an inhumane and impatient guy. I’ll come back at noon; by then, you need to give me a response. If you continue to act like this, I’m afraid all you'll have left is the strength to breathe and eat. Don’t blame me then!”
Lan Baobao watched his departing figure and bit her pale lips tightly.
No, no matter what, she couldn’t let him inject her.
What should she do? What should she do?
Lan Baobao felt completely lost; her heart was in chaos, and her mind was a mess without any clarity.
Ah, who can save me? Who can save Ye Ziru?
Ye Zixun, where are you?
Time passed quickly; at noon Mu Jiangfeng returned to the room while Yun Ni entered carrying food.
It was noon, time for a proper meal. Yun Ni noticed that Lan Baobao hadn't eaten the food she brought in the morning, and it had gone cold and stale. She could only take it away to be thrown out.
Yun Ni really couldn't understand why Sister Lan was so stubborn. Mr. Mu had treated her well, so why did she always want to escape?
What had happened between them? It seemed like Lan Baobao held a deep grudge against Mu Jiangfeng; her gaze towards him was filled with hatred.
"Yun Ni, you can go out first."
"Yes, sir." Yun Ni carried the now-cold food out, realizing that what she was doing was essentially the work of a servant.
Every time she cooked, she took the prepared dishes out almost untouched.
The only thing that aligned with her expertise and showcased her value was administering injections and medication to Lan Baobao, but she couldn't move.
Mr. Mu was truly ruthless; given Lan Baobao's current state, he still wanted to medicate her. What if it affected her condition? That would be terrible!
Fortunately, it was Yun Ni who administered the injections, and she had managed the dosage well each time, so it remained within a safe range.
Mu Jiangfeng walked to the bedside after hearing the door close, looking expectantly at Lan Baobao.
His deadline had arrived; it was time for Lan Baobao to give herself an answer.
"Baby, what have you decided? Will you stay or continue your endless resistance?"
Finally, Lan Baobao, who had been sitting motionless at the head of the bed, reacted. She looked up at Mu Jiangfeng, her eyes shifting as if she were contemplating.
After a long pause, a hoarse and weak female voice broke the silence.
"Alright, I promise you. I won't resist anymore and won't try to escape."
"That was quick."
Mu Jiangfeng was slightly surprised; just moments ago, she had seemed filled with deep-seated hatred towards him, but now she had transformed into a docile creature. How could there be such a drastic change?
"Because I don't want to be a mere puppet, I need space and freedom to move."
Lan Baobao felt a moment of guilt, but she knew that only by convincing herself could she make Mu Jiangfeng believe her.
Mu Jiangfeng was not a fool; he wouldn't let a woman manipulate him, especially when his heart had grown so cold and hard. His mind became calmer and more rational.
Thus, Lan Baobao's words were not taken seriously; he simply chose not to expose her.
How could a woman who had just been fiercely resisting, as if fighting for her life, now be as docile as a sheep?
"Alright, since you've made your decision today, I'll take your word for it." He lifted the blanket and helped Lan Baobao up, speaking gently, "Listen to Yun Ni, you haven't eaten anything since yesterday. You should eat something to regain your strength; we can discuss everything else later."
"Okay!"
Lan Baobao complied with all his actions, only to find a better opportunity to escape.
Moreover, if she wanted to escape, she needed to replenish her energy. If she was weak and got caught again halfway, she would never have another chance to flee.
Mu Jiangfeng might let her off the first time, but he would definitely not spare her the second time.
If she were caught again by Mu Jiangfeng, he would surely not listen to her explanations and would resort to harsher methods.
Mu Jiangfeng helped her to the table. Lan Baobao glanced around and said, "This villa is my activity area, right? When I was at Ye Family Old Residence, I could still move around the estate. You wouldn't just keep me confined to this room, would you?"
Is she trying to provoke him?
Unfortunately for her, this tactic was very effective on Mu Jiangfeng.
He didn't want to lose to Ye Zixun in any way, even in this regard.
"Since you want to move around the villa, I'll agree. After all, there are so many people guarding you; I feel more at ease. Come on, I'll help you down."
Although Lan Baobao despised Mu Jiangfeng and didn't want him to touch her, she had no choice.
A person locked in a room for a long time, except for eating and bathing, spends all their time lying on the bed, which is truly uncomfortable. However, Lan Baobao's physical strength is extremely weak, making it impossible for her to rely on her own strength to go downstairs.
At this moment, not pleasing Mu Jiangfeng and giving him a little sweetness would definitely lead to more suffering.
Lan Baobao endured her dislike and allowed Mu Jiangfeng to help her down to the restaurant on the first floor. Then, he quietly sat next to her, watching her eat the food prepared by Yun Ni, feeling a sense of relief in his heart.
Whether it was acting or planning an escape, the fact that she was willing to eat now and not torture herself anymore was enough.
Being beside Lan Baobao and watching her eat made Mu Jiangfeng feel a sense of happiness.
However, Lan Baobao did not share this feeling at all.
She already disliked Mu Jiangfeng, and now having him watch her while she ate felt absolutely terrible!
Lan Baobao didn't even know how she managed to finish that meal.
It was only when she returned to her room that she felt nauseous again, desperately wanting to rush to the bathroom to vomit...
In the afternoon, Mu Jiao'er arrived again at the hotel room where Ye Ziru was locked up.
Ye Ziru lay quietly on the bed with her eyes tightly closed, still not awake. Mu Jiao'er frowned; this child could really sleep! This certainly wasn't inherited from Ye Zixun; it must be like that idiot Lan Baobao!
For safety's sake, she took out something she had brought with her from her bag.
Mu Jiao'er sat on the edge of the bed, picked up the child, and then took a cup of water to give it to the child.
Ye Ziru remained in a deep sleep. In her hazy state, she felt something hard being shoved down her throat. Although Ye Ziru realized this, she couldn't open her eyes or figure out what to do. After a while, even the little awareness she had faded away!
Mission accomplished; Mu Jiao'er wore a proud smile on her beautiful face.
Suddenly, she remembered Ye Zixun. She wondered how their search for Ye Ziru was going. Would they find any clues? Would she be exposed?
Thinking of all those possible dangers made her unable to suppress her fear.
Finally, Mu Jiao'er was still anxious and took out her phone to call Ye Zixun.
"Hello! Zi Xun, it's me, Jiao Er!"
" Mu Jiao'er?" The voice on the other end, Ye Zixun, was filled with surprise, but it quickly turned into reprimand as he harshly scolded, "Didn’t I tell you? Don’t call me again. Can’t you understand what I’m saying? Are you doing this on purpose to annoy me?"
"No, no, no! It's not like that. Zi Xun, please don’t be angry, just listen to me." Mu Jiao'er was always so timid in front of Ye Zixun, afraid of being abandoned by him, just like those other women he discarded.
Mu Jiao'er cautiously coaxed Ye Zixun, "I have something I want to discuss with you. Zi Xun, can we meet? It’s been a long time since we last saw each other."
"You want to meet me now? At the busiest time for me?" Ye Zixun raised an eyebrow, clearly displeased.
How could this woman be so annoying?!
"Yes! I know you're busy, but you should take some time for yourself and relax a bit. Don’t wear yourself out too much. I really want to see you tonight."
Damn it! This clingy woman!
Ye Zixun cursed inwardly and suppressed his irritation as he replied, "Got it. When?"
