Chapter 184: A Horrific Fanatic
Flying across countries, they finally landed in China. Qin Muxuan suddenly felt that she was not going abroad for hunting a job but for spending the holiday with Gu Zijin…
Recognizing the fact, she turned to Gu Zijin and said with a smile, “You set a trap for me, right?”
“Don’t you like it?”
Carrying the luggage, Gu Zijin walked ahead. Qin Xiaobai followed them, noticing the subtle atmosphere between his parents.
“Hey, I will go home and unpack the luggage. You can go to work.”
Stepping out of the airport, Qin Muxuan hurriedly said to Gu Zijin with a smile.
“What a fake smile!”
Gu Zijin complained, but he still nodded, “Lisa just turned on my phone, saying that there are some affairs to be arranged in the company. I might not drive you home. Would you mind that?”
“I’m fine with that.”
Qin Muxuan agreed, gazing into the distance, “I can get a cab by myself.”
“Well, good girl.”
She hadn’t fathomed the reason that Gu Zijin always called her a good girl, as if she was a child.
After Gu Zijin left, Qin Xiaobai asked curiously, “Dabai, do you love daddy more?”
“It’s about the adults. You don’t understand.”
Qin Xiaobai retorted defiantly, “I’m more knowledgeable than you think! Don’t underestimate me!”
“Okay, I won’t underestimate you. Let’s go back.”
“Fine.”
Waving her hand, Qin Muxuan hailed a cab. She sat in the backseat with Xiaobai, “Please go to the Villa Compound of the Seaside Garden.”
“Oh dear. You’re rich.” The driver grinned, “Living in a villa! That’s impressive!”
Qin Muxuan pursed her lips, responding in a low voice, “Well, I rent it.”
“What do you do for a living?”
Qin Muxuan frowned crossly, ‘Why does he ask so much? Is he snooping?’
“Just some simple work.”
The driver’s face was reflected in the rearview mirror. His expression didn’t change. He then continued, “Oh, that means you have a rich boyfriend.”
Qin Muxuan was speechless.
“You home wrecker! How cheap you are! I’d like to beat you to death…”
Qin Muxuan was about to play games with Xiaobai. Hearing the driver’s words, she got goose bumps instantly. Staring at the man in the front seat vigilantly, she asked.
“What?”
The driver’s face contorted in the rearview mirror.
“I said you cunt should go to hell!”
Qin Muxuan was astonished, and then she held Qin Xiaobai in her arms tightly.
“I don’t know what you are talking about! Pull over! Stop the car! We want to get off!”
“No way. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”
Qin Xiaobai was aware that something was weird, ‘He’s a bad man!’
“Dabai…”
“Shh, Xiaobai. Keep quiet.”
Qin Muxuan’s heart was pounding. She even dared not breathe. This guy was robust. A woman and a child could never beat him.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Wrestling with him was not a wise option. They had no choice but to stay calm. She must figure out what the man wanted, so that she could strike a bargain with him. She should keep Xiaobai safe.
“Who are you?”
“It doesn’t matter, but you should take responsibility for what you’ve done.”
All windows and doors were locked. The car drove into an alley. Qin Muxuan was striking the window helplessly.
“Save your efforts. There’s no one here except me.”
“Why?” Qin Muxuan’s voice trembled, “I got no quarrel with you!”
“Well, that’s true. But you upset Yuxiao!”
When he mentioned Yan Yuxiao, the man’s eyes became vicious.
“Yan Yuxiao asked you to do this?”
“Hah ha, she’s so kind-hearted that she won’t do this. I’ve detested you for a long time. Yuxiao finally finds her loved one. Why do you get in the way of their relationship?”
Qin Muxuan tried to remain unflappable, protecting Xiaobai in her arms, “You’re Yan Yuxiao’s fan?”
The car suddenly stopped. Opening the door, the man yanked Qin Muxan and Qin Xiaobai out simultaneously. He forced them into a murky house.
Qin Xiaobai was so frightened that he dared not speak, though he was a gifted child. Under such circumstances, an adult would be terrified, let alone a child.
“Mommy…”
“Shh, don’t be scared. I will protect you.”
Holding Xiaobai more tightly, Qin Muxuan fumbled for her phone. She had called Gu Zijin before and minimized the sound.
“If you are dead, Yuxiao might live a better life. That’s all I want. Yuxiao lives with her Mr. Right forever.”
‘Insane. This guy’s insane…’
Qin Muxuan could only try to calm the crazy man, clearing her throat, “Sorry, I have nothing to do with the woman you mentioned. You got the wrong person.”
“It’s impossible!” The man retorted immediately. He then took his phone and found the news, “It’s you! Look! You look exactly the same!”
Qin Muxuan was flurried, covering Xiaobai’s ears with her hands.
She whispered, “Stay quiet, my baby. Your dad will save us.”
She pondered, ‘We will survive only if I can buy some time.’
Facing a demented outlaw, she didn’t know how they would end up if she used force.
“Mister, I will tell you the truth. In fact, Gu Zijin came to me for breaking up with me, and I agreed. It was the last time we met. We will never see each other again.”
“I don’t believe you.”
Wielding a dagger in his hands, the man narrowed his eyes which were fixed on the dagger. “Only the dead won’t speak.”
“Look! Yuxiao’s so kind that she won’t let you do evil things. This is kidnapping!”
“No!” The man roared, “No… Yuxiao’s innocent and benevolent. I will do all these dirty things. You said this on purpose to buy some time!”
He slapped her. Qin Muxuan’s face turned sideways. Her cheeks were burning hot, and blood oozed from the corner of her mouth.
She arched her body over Xiaobai in order to protect him.
“You can kill me, but please let Xiaobai go. He’s only an innocent child.”
“No, I need you, mommy…”
Realizing that a stalling tactic didn’t work, Qin Muxuan only pleaded with the man to leave Xiaobai out of it.
“Mother and son should go to hell together!”
When the dagger was about to pierce Qin Muxuan’s body, she rolled over and hugged Xiaobai tightly. Xiaobai bellowed, “Mommy!”
There was a bang.
Qin Muxuan was dumbfounded. She didn’t feel painful, so she turned back. Veins stood out on the man’s temple, and his eyes were wide open.
He was petrified. The next second, he slowly kneeled down and fell on the ground.
Gu Zijin appeared from the criminal’s back like a savior.
