Chapter 662: Daring to be Arrogant in My Hands

“She’s just left,” he said.

Yi Qinghuan glanced at the only door open in the hallway.

“Did he say where he was going?”

“Bo Shuxian’s daughter has gone missing.

Bo Yanching is looking everywhere for her, and Yaen Chi went to help,” the man replied.

Yi Qinghuan’s eyes twitched.

“Let me help too.

I have some friends in Rongcheng City.

I’ll ask around.”

Li Jian thought about it; after all, she was a local with better connections than him and didn’t refuse.

…

The cloth over her eyes was removed, and flickering shadows passed before her dim surroundings.

The air smelled of unpleasant paint, mixed with the stench of rust.

Suddenly, a strong light hit her face.

Nan Jiaojiao narrowed her eyes.

Suddenly, a pair of hands reached out and forcibly pried her eyes open.

Under the intense light above, Nan Jiaojiao couldn’t close her eyes, which soon turned red.

This must be an abandoned warehouse, sealed tightly on all sides except where light seeped through the broken roof or corners, too faint to reach the ground.

A woman’s laughter suddenly echoed ahead.

“Nan Jiaojiao, even you have days like this.”

Zhou Zining?

“Let her go,” a voice commanded leisurely.

Zhou Zining approached, lifting Nan Jiaojiao’s chin to examine her face closely.

Her expression grew more twisted, the mock smile appearing especially vicious.

She was far from disheveled, still adorned in gold and silver, with a string of pearls the size of pigeon eggs around her neck, gleaming under the light.

“You didn’t expect this, did you?

I didn’t leave Rongcheng City.

I’ve waited for this day, waited a long time,” she said.

Nan Jiaojiao smiled.

“Long time no see.”

“Good, not afraid at all, still daring to speak to me.”

What’s this supposed to be?

Once, enemies had captured Nan Jiaojiao alive.

She was tortured for three days and nights, her ribs broken countless times, clinging to life waiting for the Killing Alliance’s rescue.

She kept her mouth shut, revealing nothing about the organization.

To her, Zhou Zining’s methods were child’s play.

But she didn’t speak, considering her hands were bound behind her back, leaving her at the mercy of others.

She was strong-willed, but there was no need to confront Zhou Zining.

Seeing her silence, Zhou Zining’s smile turned even more ferocious, her gaze on the face before her filling with hatred.

“You think you got Bo Yanching under your spell with that face?”

Nan Jiaojiao opened her mouth, knowing although she could feign ignorance to some extent, some things still had to be said.

Like: “I’m beautiful, he has eyes, he can see.”

Zhou Zining was probably not expecting her to be so shameless and slapped her across the face.

“Bah!

What do you have to be proud of in front of me?

You’ve known him for only a few years, but I’ve been by his side for ten.

If not for you, we could have continued to get along just fine.

It was you who broke up our family!”

Nan Jiaojiao sighed.

“Do you really want me to expose you?”

Zhou Zining glared, possibly recalling the humiliations she suffered at the Bo Residence at Nan Jiaojiao’s hands, and raised her hand to slap her again.

Nan Jiaojiao turned her head to dodge and coldly eyed Zhou Zining’s hand.

“Think carefully.

I know acupuncture.

Guess if I have a needle hidden in my mouth, maybe even coated with poison.”

Zhou Zining, her face full of conflict and hate, flashed a hint of fear and ultimately didn’t bring the slap down.

She clenched her teeth in anger.

“You’re in my hands now, and still you dare to be arrogant!”

She twisted Nan Jiaojiao’s chin forcefully as if trying to snap her face away.

Seemingly with vicious intent, she turned Nan Jiaojiao’s face aside.
