C8 Oppression
After waking up in the middle of the night, Mo Xie discovered that she was lying on a large bed carved with flowers. Her body was tightly locked by iron chains, and she didn't even have the strength to move.
He gritted his teeth and struggled as hard as he could. Alone and without effort, he could only watch as the candlelight in the room gradually dimmed …
His heart tightened. He wanted to shout out loud, but no sound came out from his throat. Only then did he realize that his mouth was extremely dry and he desperately wanted to drink water.
At this moment, a gust of cold wind blew in from outside the window, causing the last glimmer of light to dim …
Early in the morning, the sun rose and the air in the morning light was especially fresh. The three youths of the Long family bathed in the morning light and bypassed a few Zhu Men Mansion. They finally arrived at the room where Mo Xie was locked in and pushed open the door.
"Big brother, why hasn't this kid woken up yet?" Long Yue said, "Am I being too excessive?"
Long Ri carefully observed and found that Mo Xie's face was pale and her lips cracked. He understood most of it, "Third brother, go pour me a cup of tea."
"Yes."
Long Xing took the teacup over and asked in puzzlement, "Big Brother, why are we treating him so well and even serving him tea?"
"He can't die. Don't forget, dad said that he would trade him for Tongzhu." Long Ri said calmly.
"Yes." Dragon Star listens to his big brother the most.
"Long Yue, help him up. I'll give him water."
"Yes, big brother."
After Long Ri fed Mo Xie a few mouthfuls of water, Mo Xie suddenly coughed abruptly. Seeing the three of them, she became extremely angry, "Cough, cough …." You... Why did you bring me here? What was his motive? Don't pretend to be a good person in front of me. "
"Brat, quiet down." Long Yue fiercely threw Mo Xie back onto the bed, patted her clothes in disgust, and gave him a disdainful look, "I'm not that kind."
"Brother, don't get angry, don't bother with him." Long Ri calmly reminded and then meaningfully sneered, "Since you're awake, that's good …"
Seeing the three of them harboring malicious intentions, Mo Xie knew in her heart that they must have some sort of scheme. She didn't care about it and conserved her strength, looking for an opportunity to escape.
"Big brother, since he's awake, it's time for us to depart." Long Yue reminded.
"Yes."
"Kid, get up." Dragon Star was young and vigorous, similar in age to Mo Xie, and his aura was unbridled.
Mo Xie stared at them warily, "Where do you want to take me?"
"Cut the crap. You'll know once you get there." Long Ri untied Mo Xie's chains, leaving only the cuffs on her hands so he could walk freely.
Mo Xie wanted to know what they wanted to do, as well as being trapped to death here. She might as well leave with them first. Even if it was a competition of kung fu, she wanted to risk her life. Perhaps, she could even take the opportunity to escape.
"Are you going or not?" Long Yue became impatient, "Or do you want me to drag you out?"
"Leave then, who's afraid of who?" Mo Xie refused to accept this.
"Very good." Long Ri Xie smiled charmingly. He was laughing at this youth's arrogance. He didn't know his place in the world and didn't have any scheming in mind, so he still underestimated Mo Xie.
Mo Xie followed the three of them around the Zhu Clan's courtyard. Along the way, he secretly observed the mansion's luxurious scenery, similar to his own Wealthy Class courtyard.
He knew that their origins were not small, so it was no wonder they were so arrogant. However, he remained calm and collected, and disdained to ask what their origins were. He knew that they would only attract ridicule.
There were already three luxurious carriages waiting outside. Before getting on the carriage, Mo Xie turned around and lifted her head to look at the manor's signboard: City Lord Long Residence.
He thought about it for a moment and remembered that his father had told him that the City Lord of Tian Ming City had a great reputation. Their family's strength was great, and it was mainly because their family had a large Board of Patriarchs.
"Hurry up and go up." Long Yue arrogantly urged, as if she was chasing a slave.
Looking at Long Yue's impatient expression, Mo Xie really couldn't help but curse a few times and brandish her fists at him. At any rate, he was the only son of the City Lord of Yunjin City and had never received such treatment before. Even if Tianming City was a little stronger, it didn't have the qualifications to yell at him like this.
However, after experiencing this bad luck, Mo Xie had also learned to be calm. She still endured it first, after all, he had fallen into their hands. If he displeased them, he wouldn't even have the chance to escape.
In the future, when he had the chance, he would definitely make them repay the humiliation they had caused him today.
After Mo Xie got into the carriage, Long Ri ordered the two experts guarding outside: "You two, watch him well. Don't let him get away."
"Yes, Eldest Young Master."
"Second brother, third brother, let's go to another carriage."
Long Ri had just finished speaking when he saw Long Shengming walk out from the door. The three of them bowed together. "Father."
"Yes." Long Shengming nodded and replied, he looked up at the sky, "It's about time, let's get ready to go."
"Yes."
The three brothers leapt onto the carriage, and Long Shengming walked towards another carriage …
Listening to their conversation, Mo Xie realized that the three brothers were the son of Long Shengming.
After the bumpy road for a few hours, Mo Xie wanted to find an opportunity to escape, but there were two experts guarding outside the car door. They even noticed her movements, let alone escape.
It was better to remain calm, lest he alert the enemy. Since his plan had failed, he might as well take the lead. An opportunity like this might not come to him now.
