She had no choice but to eat, what else could she do!

Xu Chaomu lifted her head and caught Bai Man gazing affectionately at Shen Chi. Shen Chi also had a look on his face… that expression, it must be tenderness!

“Miss Bai, don’t overthink it, my fourth brother isn’t that nice to me. I’m just his pet cat. If he feeds me, it’s just to test if there’s poison or if it tastes good. Fourth brother is such a precious man, what would we do if something happened to him? The Shen Group still relies on him, and he wouldn’t want to make you, Miss Bai, worry.”

While eating and talking, Xu Chaomu actually found the cake to be not tasty at all. But she was stronger than that; she didn’t even know how to make coffee.

She spoke cheerfully on the side, completely oblivious to the increasingly cold chill in someone’s eyes.

Bai Man, however, was delighted by what she heard, smilingly said, “Chaomu, what are you talking about? We will be one family from now on. No matter what delicious food I make in the future, I will always save a portion for you.”

“You should make it for fourth brother instead, he seems to like it more,” Xu Chaomu responded indifferently.

Shen Chi merely watched her coldly, very good, he remembered this.

After breakfast, Xu Chaomu leisurely headed to school. It was Old Cheng who drove her today; Shen Chi had his beautiful companion to keep him busy, naturally, he had no time for her.

In this way, Bai Man stayed at the Shen Family for two days, and Xu Chaomu knew she would be leaving for A City with Shen Chi soon.

On the afternoon before their departure, Shen Chi had not revealed a word to her. This man truly didn’t take her seriously. In his eyes, he could let the whole world know something, but Xu Chaomu was the exception; she was not allowed to know.

It’s as if the whole world knew Bai Man was his fiancée, about to marry him, while she was still kept in the dark.

If he didn’t say, she would pretend not to know, so as not to make him think she was being unreasonable.

When evening self-study ended that day, it was already nine o’clock at night.

Xu Chaomu knew Shen Chi would be leaving for A City early the next morning, so he definitely would not come to pick her up tonight.

She slowly packed up her things, waiting until almost everyone else had left before she slung her bag over her shoulder and walked toward the school gate. Unexpectedly, as she walked a distance, she still did not see the familiar Maybach. She looked left and right, but it was nowhere to be found.

Could it be that Shen Chi wasn’t coming to pick her up and Old Cheng wasn’t either? Had she been abandoned just like that?

She continued walking forward, but still, there was no sign.

She waited at the usual spot for a few minutes, but saw nothing.

The night sky was pitch black, the number of people around was dwindling. The evening breeze was cold, and she hugged her arms, continuing to wait in place.

“Shen Chi, you big jerk, where are you…” Xu Chaomu felt aggrieved; he didn’t come himself and didn’t even bother to check in on her!

Had she offended him these last few days? She didn’t think so, aside from calling him a vulgar, lowbrow, pandering triple-threat man in public, a ruffian, a pervert, a scoundrel! But he didn’t get angry then…

Did he later realize she had embarrassed him?

She knew Shen Chi had always been a petty man, but was he really holding a grudge against her like this?

The surrounding shops closed one by one, but Shen Chi’s Maybach never appeared.

Xu Chaomu started to worry. If she waited any longer, there wouldn’t be anyone on the road.

She decided to just walk all the way back, maybe she would see Shen Chi’s car on the road.

The darkness was so thick she couldn’t see her hand in front of her face.

Occasionally, a car would pass by her, scaring Xu Chaomu out of her wits.

What if she encountered a con artist; what if she ran into a ruffian; what if she ran into a murderer…

She hadn’t completed her life’s great ambition, she had been with Shen Chi for eight years and hadn’t even kissed him…

She was at a disadvantage, okay? She didn’t want to die.

The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, so Xu Chaomu quickened her pace.

She tried to think of something happy to distract herself, like the time Shen Chi tied her shoelaces or when he said, “I can’t bear to see you cry…”

But her heart still ached.

Why didn’t he come to pick her up? He knew she had evening self-study today, he knew she would get out of school late tonight.

Was he still with Bai Man, were they packing for their trip tomorrow, were they having dinner together, were they together in the garden watching the moon…

A dull pain surged through her heart.

But, the more you fear something, the more it tends to happen.

Just as she had walked a distance and turned into a long street, suddenly, several men in black clothes and hoods blocked her way!

Xu Chaomu’s legs went weak with fright; she instinctively started to run backward!

Thump thump, thump thump, thump thump…

Her heart leaped into her throat!

All her blood boiled, her mind went blank in an instant, leaving only one word, run! Run! Run!

She used all her strength, and in front of her, there was nothing but a narrow road…

Her feet felt like they were filled with lead; she couldn’t run fast at all, and her face turned pale with terror!

She couldn’t outrun the men, and they chased after her with force and blocked Xu Chaomu’s path!

“Who are you, and who are you? I, I’m just a student,” stammered Xu Chaomu in terror.

She really had no money, except for the card Shen Chi gave her last time at the mall; she didn’t know how much was left in it.

She looked at the several men in front of her, tall in stature, but their faces were invisible. Only a pair of ferocious eyes were visible, radiating menace.

“It’s her, take her away!” a man who appeared to be the leader commanded.

His voice was very deep but in the silent night sky, it was particularly intimidating!

“Got it!” The other men, without further ado, stepped forward and grabbed Xu Chaomu. One put a sack over her head, while another gagged her mouth with a cloth strip!

“Mmm mmm, mmm mmm…” Xu Chaomu struggled violently, but she was no match for these men.

Soon, she couldn’t see even a trace of light remaining before her eyes!

All was pitch-dark before her, as if she had been placed into a vast bottomless pit, unseen, unheard, only endless terror assailing her!

Her eyes were blindfolded, and her mouth was covered; where were they taking her?

Shen Chi, Shen Chi…

She wanted to shout his name, but she couldn’t make a sound! Each time she was bullied, he would come forward, but why wasn’t he here now…

The men began to drag her forcefully, and with a violent collision, there was a “clang” as she hit a car door!

The men then started to shove her into the car; throughout this entire process, not a word was spoken!

Xu Chaomu’s hands were also tied; she wanted to leave a mark, no, she had to find a way to leave a mark!

She struggled not to get into the car, and with her foot, she drew a circle on the ground where the car had stopped, then, still resisting, she drew a moon. Sun, moon equals day and night.

If Shen Chi could see it, he would definitely understand, he definitely would. “Damn it, get in the car!” No matter how much the men pushed her, she kept resisting at the door, refusing to move.

The men used brute force and gave her a shove; Xu Chaomu fell entirely onto the back seat of the car!

The car smelled of the countryside, like the earthy scent on her hands when she played with mud as a child.

Where were they taking her? To the countryside? To the mountains? Or Heaven and Hell?

She didn’t want to die.

Shen Chi… Fourth Brother… where are you… where are you…
