When saying these words, Mu Qian always spoke in a relaxed and frank tone, as if she was chatting with someone who didn't matter.
She could even calmly analyze Lu Yuchuan's mentality and his own mistakes, as if she didn't have any worries at all.
During the silence between Lu and Chuan, Mu Qian had already walked around from behind him to the front. She didn't get a response from him. She didn't seem to care. She still stared at the cold iron walls around her. When she got closer,
, she would even come forward and touch it, as if looking for an exit.
"So calm." Lu Yuchuan looked at her movements and said slowly, "Are you really not afraid at all?"
"Afraid. Why am I not afraid?" Mu Qian replied without looking back, "Do I still expect you to let me go because of our 'father-daughter relationship'?"
After Lu Yuchuan heard this, he stared at her quietly for a long time before finally slightly curling his lips and saying, "You really don't have to count on this."
"Fortunately, I didn't count on it." Mu Qian turned around, "But what I am best at is living with the flow. I will live my life however the environment changes. Anyway, things are already like this, no matter how secretive they are.
It’s boring, isn’t it?”
Lu Yuchuan smiled again, "She is indeed my daughter."
"No, please don't say that, we are different, completely different," Mu Qian said.
"What's the difference?"
"I was born with the trend, but you were born against the trend." Mu Qian said, "How many terrible things have you done to prove your ability and to get the reputation and status you want? If necessary, you
You can even sacrifice the whole world to fulfill yourself - this is you."
After Lu Yuchuan listened, he nodded slowly and agreed, "You have seen me clearly."
"Only by seeing things thoroughly can you be sober." Mu Qian said, "And I have always been sober."
"Okay, okay." Lu Yuchuan nodded, "That's a good 'always sober'——"
"Now, can you tell me your purpose of arresting me?" Mu Qian said.
Lu Yuchuan smiled lightly, "You are so smart, how could you not guess it?"
"I can guess the beginning, but I may not be able to guess the ending." Mu Qian said, "Maybe you just planned to use me as a bargaining chip in exchange for a chance to escape, but... what if you listen to what I said, and you will tell me
Are you tempted to kill?"
Lu Yuchuan raised his eyes to look at her again, "Do you think I will kill you?"
"Why not?" Mu Qian turned to look at Mo Yan, who had been standing in the corner, "At least right now, your confidante wants to strangle me to death on the spot."
Lu Yuchuan followed her line of sight and saw Mo Yan again.
She stood in a dark corner, her eyes falling on Mu Qian, and her eyes slowly filled with resentment and hatred.
It seemed as if the person mocking Mu Qian's words just now was not Lu Yuchuan, but her.
She was actually angrier than Lu Yuchuan.
"Mo Yan." Lu Yuchuan called her, and then said, "Let's go."
After hearing this, Mo Yan's face suddenly changed, and she quickly said, "No, I won't leave."
"If you leave now, no one will know that you are related to this matter after you leave." Lu Yuchuan said, "You still have a lot of time to get out safely."
"I want to go with you!" Mo Yan took two steps forward, "It doesn't matter where you go, I can always stay with you!"
After Lu Yuchuan heard this, he just looked at her quietly.
Mo Yan stepped forward quickly and walked up to him before speaking again: "As long as I can be with you, I will give up anything."
"Pfft——"
Mu Qian suddenly laughed out loud.
Mo Yan suddenly turned her head and almost glared at her.
"I'm sorry." Mu Qian spread his hands and said, "I just feel like I'm a little redundant. I'm laughing at myself... How about I go back to the room and stay there while you continue."
After saying that, Mu Qian turned around and walked towards the house.
But Lu Yuchuan didn't stop her.
Mu Qian walked in, closed the door, and groped in the dark room for a long time, but couldn't find anything like a switch. She finally gave up, groped in the dark to the bedside, and lay down again.
At this moment, lying in this dark room, her mind was blank.
She didn't even bother to think about whether Huo Jinxi would find her, let alone anything else.
She just lay quietly, letting the darkness in the room swallow up her thoughts bit by bit...
…
Mu Qian didn't know how long she had been lying there. In the darkness, it was difficult to distinguish between morning and dusk, day and night, and even the flow of time became incalculable.
It wasn't until the somewhat rotten iron door was pushed open again that his thoughts returned to Mu Qian's mind little by little.
She looked towards the door and saw the tall and thin figure of Lu Yuchuan.
He looked at her, and when he spoke again, his tone was as before, still like the loving father who would pamper her and pamper her infinitely——
"Have you slept well? Get up, we are leaving."
Mu Qian slowly sat up, and when she spoke again, her tone was equally relaxed, "Where are you going?"
"Going anywhere is better than staying here, isn't it?" Lu Yuchuan said.
Mu Qian sneered and said, "That's not necessarily the case."
Lu Yuchuan didn't say anything more, turned around and walked away.
Mu Qian slowly stood up, walked to the door and saw that Lu Yuchuan had already walked to a corner.
Mo Yan stood in that corner, and next to her, in a place that was no different from the surrounding walls, an elevator with two doors appeared.
Mu Qian probably knew how she got here.
She was originally in the study room of Lu Yuchuan's house. No matter what, it was impossible for Mo Yan to bypass the bodyguard at the door and take her away.
Unless there is another way.
That's Lu Yuchuan's house, and this community was developed by the Lu family.
Perhaps as early as the beginning of construction, Lu Yuchuan had already planned such a secret passage for emergencies.
Unexpectedly, she would have the opportunity to become one of the tourists in this secret passage.
Lu Yuchuan had already entered the elevator, and then looked at Mu Qian who was standing not far away.
Mu Qian stood quietly outside the elevator, "Are you sure you want to take me out?"
"What are you afraid of?" Lu Yuchuan asked.
Mu Qian chuckled lightly, "Maybe I'm worried about you?"
"If it is true, then I will definitely be very happy." Lu Yuchuan said.
Mu Qian said nothing more. Facing Mo Yan's eyes that were gradually losing her patience, she finally walked into the elevator.
Soon, Mo Yan also walked in, the elevator door slowly closed, and then went down——
After descending about one or two floors, the elevator stopped and the door opened again. What appeared in front of Mu Qian was a winding and dark passage.
But I don’t know whether this passage leads to life or death?
Mu Qian slowly raised her eyes and looked at Lu Yuchuan. Lu Yuchuan looked at her in the same way, and then strode out of the elevator.
…
A few minutes later, in the room upstairs, Huo Jinxi's cell phone suddenly made a "ticking" sound.
He quickly picked up the phone, looked at the screen interface, and immediately narrowed his eyes.
