Quaneisha opens her month, but says nothing, keeping silent for a while.
Noticing Quaneisha is hesitant, Yaffe moves a few inches discreetly in Quaneisha’s direction.
There is a fruit knife near her side, just in the blind corner of Quaneisha’s sight.
While cutting the rope with the fruit knife without being noticed, Yaffe says, “You are very smart indeed. It doesn’t matter whether you can figure out some things or not at present, but you should have a second thought about the consequence before taking actions. Just like you always regard me as an ideological opponent, I have held the same opinion toward you when you appeared at Noamwin College for the first time. You are the most beautiful and intelligent girl I ever encountered in my life. Like I said before, you are enchanting, having a great background, and always a straight-A student. All you have are much better than mine which makes me really jealous. I also appreciate your behaviors when you fight for your love energetically. Besides, unlike other girls from wealthy family, you are practical and are willing to do everything for Zeow. So you deserve a better man and there is no need to commit a crime.”
Quaneisha looks at Yaffe in surprise. “Well, do you really think so?”
“Yes. We both took each other as an opponent before while now we have both been hurt by Zeow. If we held the same standpoint, we would be good friends now.” Yaffe says, while cutting the rope on her back bit by bit.
Quaneisha seems to be comforted by Yaffe’s words and appears much friendlier than before.
Yaffe is about to relax when she notices a cunning smile appears on Quaneisha’s face, which puts her in a sudden and blind panic.
“Yaffe, I almost believe you! Somebody, please! Don’t let Yaffe run away!”
The door is cracked opened at once, and a crowd of people come running in the direction of Yaffe.
Having no time to be careful, Yaffe cut off the rope in a flash, bounces out of the chair and put the knife on Quaneisha’s neck, before those people catching her. Then she shouts, “If you don’t want her to die, just step back!”
Shocked by Yaffe’s reaction, everyone freezes.
Quaneisha catches a glimpse of the blood on the blade which really freaks her out.
Yaffe is very skillful in holding Quaneisha as hostage.
As a surgeon, she knows human body very well and tries her best to avoid accidental injury.
Although she hates Quaneisha, she doesn’t want to kill her by accident, which is beneficial to both sides.
Yaffe stares at those people and orders in a cold voice, “Get out of the room and prepare a vehicle for me!”
Those people look at Quaneisha as if to enquire of her and nobody moves.
Quaneisha’s face is almost as pale as a piece of paper, frightened as well as shocked.
She can’t believe that Yaffe has already taken in control.
Yaffe doesn’t bother to say much, just putting the fruit knife closer to Quaneisha.
The coldness of the blade around her neck gives Quaneisha the shivers.
There is a slight stabbing pain in her skin, which nearly frightens her to death. She doesn’t dare to move at all, just keeping her neck away from the knife as much as possible.
Looking at Quaneisha and those people, Yaffe says indifferently, “It seems that you want her to die! You can’t reach the nearest hospital within fifteen minutes by driving. If I cut open her neck and let the blood spring out, I bet she could not survive five minutes. How about we try it?”
Quaneisha’s face is distorted by fear, and she gives order to those people urgently, “Do as she commands!”
Then those people start to step back, and a man goes out of the room to prepare a car for Yaffe.
Yaffe’s nerve is still tightened. She knows that other crises just start to emerge.
How could she handle that if the car is drained of oil?
And what if she is attacked when getting on the car while hold Quaneisha as hostage?
The next actions are going to be much tougher than what she has achieved.
While thinking, she hears a sharp scream and squealing brakes outside the room.
Then all of those people rush out.
Yaffe wonders for a moment and coerces Quaneisha out as well.
When she tramps in the yard, she notices that those people have fallen on the ground.
Through piles of building materials in the messy yard, she sees Quinn He, in his cashmere coat, striding towards her.
The moment she notices him, she relaxes.
Quinn is amazed at what he has seen and delighted by Yaffe’s behaviors, who can always give him some surprises from time to time.
“Rich Man …” Yaffe exclaims with surprise.
Then, with no shame, she faints due to excitement.
**
It is already in the evening when Yaffe revives from her faint.
With her head aching and her nose blocked, she doesn’t have the mood to speak. Probably she gets a bad cold again by the coldness outside.
Quinn is sitting on the bed and reading a book. When he realizes that she is awake, he drops his book and reaches out to check her temperature.” Can you sit up and eat something?” he asks.
Yaffe nodes her head gently and murmurs, “I haven’t eaten anything for the whole day. I’m nearly starved.”
Quinn hugs her up and lets her lean against the bed. Then he goes downstairs to fetch some food.
When he is up, Yaffe asks, “Can I have dinner before brushing my teeth?”
“Of course you can.”
“That’s great.”
Quinn puts a small table on the bed and places the food near Yaffe’s hands.
Then she gives him a smile and starts to gulp down.
Soon, all kinds of food on the small table disappear.
It seems that Yaffe still want to have more, and Quinn asks, “Wanting more?”
“Better later. Or it will pose a threat to my stomach.” Yaffe responds with a shy smile.
Quinn is a bit speechless, for her appetite is always quite good and she doesn’t bother to pretend to be a lady when having dinner.
“My parents have paid you a visit when you were asleep. And I have called them back when I went downstairs.”
“Thank you, Rich Man. I am really sorry for letting you worry about me.”
“Well, Could you tell me what happened to you?”
After briefly describing it in every detail, she inquires, “How will you deal with Quaneisha and those men who kidnapped me?”
“Well, what’s your opinion?”
“I don’t know. But she should pay a price for what she has done. It’s not the first time she wants to attack me. But she really irritates me this time.”
“I will send two guards to protect you in the future just in case.”
“Don’t bother, not that serious.”
Quinn narrows his eyes and says. “Do you want to be kidnapped again?”
“You must be kidding. Well, it is a comfort under some protection. I am bound to be frightened to death next time.”
“Frightened to death? I suppose not. It’s a marvel that you reversed the situation.”
Yaffe chuckles and says, “I was afraid you can’t find me in time, so I tried my best to save myself. Rich Man, you had already been there before and chose to turn up on that occasion, haven’t you? You were awesome at that time!”
While combing her messy hair gently with his hands, Quinn replies, “Yes, I deliberately waited for an occasion like that.”
