Pei Jingmo was completely scorched by the flames and thick smoke. His light grey coat was covered in burn marks, his nose and cheeks were stained black, and beneath his tangled hair, his eyes were bloodshot, his gaze so gloomy it was chilling...

He stood at the door and glanced around, his hands hanging at his sides, covered in dried dark red blood.

Qin Shuang, who was kneeling in front of her second uncle and begging, stood up with the help of Pei Yuning.

The atmosphere was suddenly frighteningly cold.

Pei Jingmo walked in step by step, gritted his teeth and asked, "Where's Pei Zhuo?"

"You still dare to mention Ah Zhuo?" Qin Shuang cried out, "How could Ah Zhuo have been in a car accident? You and your son must have sent someone to Country R to kill him!"

"He's already given up fighting you, why don't you give him a chance to live... Ugh!"

Qin Shuang's throat was grabbed.

Pei Jingmo's eyes were bloodshot, and he almost lifted her off the ground with one hand, his expression uncontrollably crazy: "Where's your son?"

"Tell me! Where did your son take my wife?"

"cough……"

Qin Shuang slapped his hands repeatedly, unable to breathe. Pei Yuning was so scared that she cried and rushed forward, scratching and kicking Pei Jingmo, "Let go of my mother!"

Pei Jingmo's temples were throbbing, and his mind was filled with the image of a car on fire and thick smoke billowing under the bridge pier.

Yinyin, Yinyin must really need him right now...

Pei Jingmo kicked Pei Yuning to the ground without mercy.

"Someone come!" The second uncle who was sitting on the sofa stood up and banged his cane loudly: "Someone come! Hurry and pull him away!"

However, Pei Jingmo was in such a terrifying state that no one dared to approach him.

The second uncle looked at Pei Muchuan angrily and said, "If I don't persuade your son, do you really want to cause a death?"

Pei Muchuan's face darkened. "Uncle, I should be the one asking you this. You pretended to expel Ah Zhuo to Country R, ​​then had him fake a car accident and come back to life, sneaking back to kidnap my daughter-in-law. What's your intention?"

"What are you and your grandson going to do to us next? How about we chop off our heads and let you kick them around like balls?"

"You..." Second Uncle was panting with anger, and suddenly his eyes widened: "Azhuo is not dead? He's back?"

Second Uncle's skinny, hunched body slumped down on the sofa, muttering to himself, "How could this happen..."

Pei Muchuan's sharp eyes scrutinized him carefully, then he looked away and made a judgment in his mind.

"I'll ask you one last time, where is your son?"

Pei Jingmo's hands were so strong that Qin Shuang's face turned purple and he shook his head in fear.

In this situation, even if Qin Shuang's life was taken, it would be of no use. Pei Muchuan forcefully pulled away Pei Jingmo's hand that was pinching Qin Shuang, "Calm down first. They must have been kept in the dark as well."

"cough……"

Qin Shuang collapsed to the ground, breathing heavily with difficulty, and kept muttering: "Impossible, you killed Ah Zhuo, and you want to bite back!"

Suddenly, the housekeeper hurried in: "Master, the young lady is missing in Country R."

"Xiaoya is missing?"

Qin Shuang hurriedly got up from the ground and cried to her second uncle, "Dad! They killed Ah Zhuo and wanted to kill him! Xiaoya is still pregnant..."

"Where did you take my sister-in-law!" Pei Yuning mustered up the courage to rush forward and ask.

Pei Jingmo thought for a moment and came up with the answer. A cold and frightening smile appeared on his lips: "Did a dog chew your brain? Can't you see that it was your good brother who took the person away and hid him?"

The housekeeper hesitated to speak: "Old Master, there's news from Country R. The person who was in the car accident might not be the eldest young master..."

"Azhuo is not dead?" Qin Shuang's eyes lit up with excitement!

"After raising a son for so many years, you've probably never seen his true face!" Pei Muchuan said in a deep voice.

Qin Shuang was stunned in disbelief: "How could it be? Why would Ah Zhuo hide this from me..."

"At least brother is still alive!" Pei Yuning said excitedly.

"Don't be happy too soon." Pei Jingmo's dark eyes swept over the mother and daughter, and his tone was gloomy: "That beast kidnapped Yinyin. You'd better pray that Yinyin is okay, otherwise, I won't let any of you go!"

"boom!"

A muffled sound was heard.

It was my second uncle who was sitting on the sofa who vomited blood heavily and fell to the ground.

The servant hurried to help him.

Blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth, and his cloudy eyes seemed to be looking at someone in a trance. His dry hands reached out to touch him: "Azhuo, you are confused. You have disappointed Grandpa so much. You are seeking your own death. How can Grandpa help you... protect you..."

***

When I woke up, everything was pitch black.

Xu Nanyin clutched the quilt tightly around her body. After adjusting to the darkness, she tried to get out of bed, walked to the door and turned on the light.

A dim and soft light came on.

In the clean and small room in front of me, there was only a bed and a wardrobe, nothing else.

She tried the doorknob, and sure enough, it was locked, so she sat back on the bed.

After a while, there was a "click" and the door was pushed open.

Pei Zhuo leaned against the door with a lunch box in his hand and knocked on it. "Can I come in?"

What to wear.

"It's inconvenient." Xu Nanyin scolded coldly: "Get lost."

"Is it convenient? Sure."

"..."

Pei Zhuo walked in, glanced at the bed she was sitting on, sat cross-legged on the floor, opened the lunch box, took out several dishes and placed them on the floor one by one.

"I'm sorry to bother you for a while. Eat, you must be hungry."

Looking at the dishes he had laid out, Xu Nanyin was stunned. They were all her favorites.

What tricks is he playing?

She sat still, alert, on the edge of the bed.

Pei Zhuo picked up his chopsticks and tasted each dish, his face still warm and clear. "Are you relieved? I won't use such a low-brow method to plot against you."

"Only when you're full can you have the energy to fight the villains."

What he said made sense. Xu Nanyin looked at the chopsticks in his hand coldly and said, "This pair is dirty. Change it."

Pei Zhuo actually stood up and brought in a new pair of chopsticks for her.

She sat on the bed to eat, and he sat cross-legged on the floor watching her.

Xu Nanyin felt very uncomfortable and the food tasted like wax. She finally forced herself to finish the meal.

Pei Zhuo stood up and put the dishes into the lunch box, then asked, "How's the injury on your hand?"

Only then did Xu Nanyin realize that the ointment had been applied on her hand, so it didn't hurt much.

"You don't have to flatter me. I won't fall for it! We are sworn enemies."

"Mortal enemy? One for life and one for death." Pei Zhuo put his hands in his pockets, a faint smile on his lips: "Sister-in-law, I'm more looking forward to living and dying with you. Maybe you'll agree with me in the future."

Her back tensed up involuntarily and Xu Nanyin's heart beat rapidly.

She had a feeling that he was not joking, he was really planning something...

Pei Zhuo left with the lunch box.

Xu Nanyin breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the only window in the room. It was an antique wooden window that was locked with an iron lock and could not be opened.

Jinyifang also has this kind of windows. They look nice, but they are not particularly sturdy compared to glass windows.

Perhaps as long as we can destroy this wooden window, there will be a chance to escape!

But you can't use brute force to kick, otherwise it will alert the bodyguards guarding the door.

She glanced at the small wooden bed, walked over, and carefully moved it to the window. She stood on it, and at this height, she could lift one foot to step onto the wooden window.

You can exert force without making any noise.

She didn't expect to kick it off in one go. She thought that she would eat well, drink well, and sleep well every day to conserve her energy and kick for an hour.

Quantitative change leads to qualitative change. Sooner or later, this wooden window will be able to break free from the embrace of the window frame!

The more I thought about it, the more motivated I became, but the strength of one foot was still too little.

Fortunately, the magical brain circuit came into play.

Xu Nanyin tried to stand upside down on the bed, put her feet together, and pushed the wooden window out with force!

Fortunately, she had eaten little just now, otherwise she would have vomited it out. With the world spinning around her, she closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, and exerted all her strength, silently repeating in her heart: Hold on, hold on!

She absolutely could not sit there and wait for death, becoming the knife that Pei Zhuo used to stab Pei Jingmo. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, she must seize it.

Get out! Xu Nanyin! We can't let Pei Jingmo fall into danger! Kill that bastard Pei Zhuo!

Her long hair hung down upside down, and her fair little face also hung upside down, breathing in and out continuously like a funny little pufferfish.

Finally, her hands were too sore to support herself on the bed, and she opened her eyes.

In an instant, he was petrified...
