Jian Dan was very frustrated by the manâs words. What does this man want?
âHow do you want to prove it?â
The manâs lips curled up again. âYouâll know soon.â
Soon, they landed on the lawn not far from a houseâ¦
The man dragged Jian Dan into the houseâ¦
Chu Liyuan landed after them and quickly followed.
The man was aware that Chu Liyuan was following behind. This was what he wanted. If Chu Liyuan did not come, how could he continue with his act?
After following them into a room, he realized that Jian Dan was standing on a platform with a noose on her neck, and her hands were tied with tape. Her mouth was also sealed with tape.
Just as Chu Liyuan was about to step forward, he was hit hard on the back of the head and passed outâ¦
Chu Liyuan might be very powerful but once a powerful person had a weakness, that weakness would become his Achillesâ heel.
Chu Liyuanâs gaze had been fixed on his girl and did not notice that there was someone behind him.
When he woke up again, he was standing on the platform like Jian Dan with a noose on his neck, and his hands were tied with tape. However, there was no tape over his mouth.
âWhat the h*ll do you want?â
âYouâre finally awake. Iâm so bored from waiting.â
âNow, the show that Iâll be directing can finally begin.â
With that, the nooses on Jian Dan and Chu Liyuanâs neck tightened. The feeling of suffocation instantly brought the two of them to the brink of deathâ¦
âDonât be nervous. You both have a remote control in your hands. As long as you press that button, your feet can touch the ground.â The man said.
Chu Liyuan looked at Jian Dan and said strenuously, âJian Jian, press it quickly!â
Chu Liyuan was very familiar with such mechanisms. Once one party pressed the button, the other party would immediately be strangled even tighter. Therefore, how could he let his girl suffer such a thing?
The reason why Jian Dan did not press it was not because she understood the principle of this mechanism, but because she remembered a television drama she had watched a long time ago. There seemed to be a similar plot in it, so she was also aware that once she pressed the button, Chu Liyuan would be strangled even harder.
Seeing that Jian Dan did not press the button, Chu Liyuan was very anxious. But it was very difficult for him to speak.
If both of them did not press the button, then they would both die.
Jian Dan suddenly remembered the plot of the television drama she had watched back then and what the man had said to her just now.
She flipped the remote control in her hand and saw the green button at the bottom. The corners of her mouth curled up as she pressed it without hesitation.
The moment she pressed it, their feet landed on the ground at the same timeâ¦
Chu Liyuan hurriedly tore off the tape on his hands and removed the noose on his neck. He jumped off the platform and went over to Jian Dan.
He leapt onto the high platform and removed the noose on Jian Danâs neck. He also tore off the tape on her mouth and the tape on her hands.
He pulled Jian Dan into his arms. âWhy didnât you press the button when I asked you to just now?â
When he saw that Jian Dan refused to press that button, he was very anxious, but there was nothing he could do.
âBecause I canât let anything happen to you.â Jian Dan smiled and said, âBut fortunately, I saw a similar plot in a television drama previously. Otherwise, the two of us might really die here today.â
âYou disobedient lass.â Chu Liyuan tightened his arms.
The man looked at the two of them hugging each other and his face was thunderous.
âDonât be happy too early. This show has just begun.â The man said again.
Chu Liyuan carried Jian Dan off the platformâ¦
