Chapter 1729: A Strange Place
Xiao Ying returned to that room again. The window of the bathroom now had window grilles installed.
If she wanted to escape, she would have to go through the front door.
After more than an hour of struggling, Xiao Ying was also a little tired. After taking a shower, she lay on the bed.
She really could not understand why the Young Master had locked her up here.
He was clearly not trying to torture her since he had let her stay in such a good room and had even let the servant bring her food,
Although he had spoken a little weirdly downstairs, he had not hit her.
Xiao Ying’s temples were throbbing in pain as she lay on the bed. She did not want to think about it anymore and decided to conserve her energy first. She would make new plans when she woke up tomorrow.
…
Xiao Ying was still fast asleep when she felt someone standing by her bed.
She wanted to open her eyes, but her eyelids were heavy.
She felt like she was being carried by someone and the sound of a helicopter sounded in her ears. Then, she fell into a deep sleep.
When the glaring sunlight shone in from the window, Xiao Ying slowly opened her eyes.
Looking at the unfamiliar ceiling and the unfamiliar decor, she sat up from the bed.
Where was this?
At the thought of how she had felt someone standing by her bed last night but she could not open her eyes, Xiao Ying’s expression turned cold.
The despicable and shameless Ximen Chang had drugged her again!
Xiao Ying got up from the bed with a heavy head and walked to the French windows. Apart from the beach, there was a boundless sea outside.
Ximen Chang had brought her to the island?
Xiao Ying suddenly felt a little panicked. If Ximen Chang brought her to the island and Long Ming went to the castle, he would definitely not be able to find her.
What did this Ximen Chang want to do to her?
There was a knock on the door and a servant’s voice sounded. “Miss, I brought you breakfast.”
Xiao Ying said coldly, “Scram. I won’t eat your food.”
Xiao Ying started to go on a hunger strike. She did not eat anything for the entire day.
The man arrived at the island in the evening. Knowing that Xiao Ying had not eaten for the entire day, he asked the bodyguard to go upstairs and invite Xiao Ying down.
Xiao Ying sat by the French windows for the entire day and watched the sea.
All sorts of escape plans appeared in her mind.
But none of them were feasible.
She did not even know where this place was.
Besides, she did not know why the Young Master was keeping her here.
All kinds of doubts ran through her mind, making her mind almost knot up.
After a day of hunger, she was famished. When she was at her weakest, she thought of Long Ming and Wan Bao subconsciously.
After Long Ming found that she was missing, he must have searched for her like a crazy man.
He must have been very anxious about not being able to find her.
AS for Wan Bao, her mommy had not gone back to accompany her for a few days. She must miss her a lot.
Just as Xiao Ying was thinking about the two most important people in her life, there was a knock on the door.
Then, the man’s cold voice sounded. “Miss, our Young Master is inviting you downstairs for dinner.”
Xiao Ying did not respond.
“Our Young Master said that if Miss is worried, you can eat with him. Miss will eat whatever Young Master eats.”
Xiao Ying really wanted to tell the bodyguard to scram, but she looked down at her flat stomach and hesitated for a few seconds. She felt that there was no need to go against her stomach.
If she starved to death here, she would never see Long Ming and Wan Bao again.
Xiao Ying opened the door, glancing at the bodyguard standing outside before she went downstairs.
…
The living room and dining room were surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows.
The sky was not completely dark yet. The setting sun and the sea added a touch of romance and warmth to the villa.
If she wasn’t locked up here and the person she was with wasn’t that scheming Young Master, everything would be perfect.
Xiao Ying entered the dining room with a cold expression.
The servant had already prepared dinner. A tall man was sitting in front of the rectangular marble dining table, holding a knife in one hand and a fork in the other, cutting the steak elegantly.
Hearing footsteps, he did not look up, but said softly, “Sit.”
In front of him, there were knives, forks and a medium-well steak.
Xiao Ying sat opposite the man, picking up her knife and fork before glancing at him. “How can I be sure that you didn’t drug this steak?”
The man had just cut his steak and he ate a piece before passing the plate to Xiao Ying. “Eat this.”
Xiao Ying looked at the man’s actions and her exquisite eyebrows furrowed slightly.
What did this man mean?
Xiao Ying pursed her lips and said coldly, “No need.”
The man stared at Xiao Ying for a few seconds. “Eat!”
When the two of them were eating, they did not make a sound or speak. The dining hall was rather quiet.
After finishing her steak, Xiao Ying noticed that the man opposite her was looking at her. She looked up, meeting his eyes that were scrutinising her. “Young Master, is your goal to separate me from Long Ming?”
The man smirked and laughed softly. “You’re quite smart.”
Xiao Ying threw her fork on the table. Her fierce action made a crisp sound in the quiet air. There was some anger on her face. “What right do you have to do that? Are you going to ruin someone else’s life just because you can’t have your lover?”
The man’s expression slowly turned serious as a cold glint flashed past his eyes. “Tang En died for you. Have you completely forgotten about him?”
Xiao Ying’s expression was tense. “You were the one who forced Senior to end his life, yet you dare to push the blame to me?”
The man looked at the agitated Xiao Ying and narrowed his feminine eyes. “If I didn’t find out that he faked your marriage, would I have hurt him out of anger?”
Xiao Ying’s long eyelashes fluttered.
She could not deny that Senior had indeed done a lot for her and Wan Bao. In the end, when he was taken away by Young Master, he had still been concerned about her and Wan Bao.
After Senior left, she had gotten together with Long Ming. During this period of time, she rarely thought of him.
A strong sense of guilt rose in Xiao Ying’s heart.
“I’m not happy now because of you and Long Ming. Don’t even think about leaving here before I let you leave.” The man stood up from the chair and walked toward the living room.
Staring at his cold back, Xiao Ying frowned.
Xiao Ying sat alone in the dining room for a while before a servant came over and asked, “Miss, have you finished your meal?”
Xiao Ying looked at the plate on the table and a faint smile appeared on her lips. “I have nothing to do after eating. I’ll help you clean up!”
“Miss, there’s no need. Go back to your room and rest. Young Master will punish me if he finds out.”
Xiao Ying did not seem to have heard the servant’s words. She took a few bowls and walked toward the kitchen. The servant hurriedly followed her in, only to hear a crisp sound.
