Early the next morning, Maggie, who was thrown in the dark, immediately stood up and shouted as soon as she heard footsteps, “Let me go! Otherwise, if I go to court, none of you can escape.”
“You still have strength?” Upon hearing this, the man on the other side came over with his hands in his pockets and sneered. He looked down at the woman on the ground and said, “It seems that you haven’t stayed enough. It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to say it. When you want to say it, send someone to call me.”
After he finished speaking, he turned around and left in disgust, not even giving Maggie a chance to speak.
Maggie was stunned. Before she could react, the man was standing in front of her. She couldn’t even see his face clearly when she looked up. Who dared to kidnap her here?
“Humph, I advise you to be honest. Otherwise, no one can save you.” The guard of Maggie came over and said a few words in a tough voice.
As soon as he wanted to leave, he was held by a pair of slender hands. Maggie couldn’t see his face clearly in this dark environment. She grabbed his leg and lowered her voice to ask in a soft voice, “Brother, can you tell me where this is? I’m so scared.”
The man wanted to kick the woman away directly, but his whole body was covered with goosebumps because of her delicate voice, but he also had a strange feeling.
Looking at the big star with a sweet face sitting at his feet, he suddenly felt his throat tighten. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly thought of his young master’s temperament. Then his heart skipped a beat. He quickly pulled away his leg, which was held by Maggie, and hurried out.
Seeing that her honey trap was useless, Maggie couldn’t help getting angry and began to panic.
As time went by, Maggie, who had not eaten or drunk anything since she was tied up, was obviously a little tired. Her lips were dry and cracked, and her face was pale. She was no longer as delicate as usual.
When the guard came in again, he saw a weak body lying helplessly on the ground. There was a trace of pity in his eyes, and he slowly walked over.
He squatted down and whispered, “Hey, are you hungry? Do you want something to eat?”
Maggie seemed to hear someone talking to her in a daze. She raised her head and heard the voice of the person who had guarded her before. Maggie’s mind was a little clearer. She looked at the bottle of milk and a bag of bread in his hand.
She swallowed her saliva, and her eyes were shining, which made people feel sorry and pity for her. That man was like that. Seeing that she was eager, he handed her the milk and bread.
The young master didn’t say that he wouldn’t give her food and drink, so it didn’t matter if he did this. Thinking of this, the man felt at ease, so he sat cross-legged in front of Maggie and looked at her.
Maggie finally saw the man’s face clearly. It was a very ordinary face, so she had no good impression of him at all. She lowered her head slightly and whispered, “Thank you, brother. You are so good.”
The man thought that she had lowered her head because she was shy, and his heart rippled. With a smile on his face, he said kindly, “I don’t know how you offended our young master, but I still advise you to do as the young master said. If he is happy, he will let you go.”
Hearing him call her young master, Maggie thought while drinking milk. She asked inadvertently, “Who, who is your young master? Is he so awesome?”
The man said proudly, “Of course, our young master is…” Just as he was about to talk about the Huo family, he immediately paused and looked around nervously.
Seeing that there was no one else, he breathed a sigh of relief. Then he looked at Maggie and said, “Don’t ask these questions. It’s not good for you.”
Maggie covered the unwillingness and gloom in her eyes. After a while, when she looked up at the ordinary man with a simple smile, she said playfully, “Well, when your young master knows I’m innocent, he will let me go, right?”
The man stared at her and asked, “Are you really innocent?”
There was grievance in Maggie’s big eyes. “I’m afraid that no matter what she says, others will believe her, right?”
“I don’t even know what your young master is talking about. He caught me for no reason. I was almost scared to death. It was so dark last night. I was really scared when I was here alone. What if there was a mouse…”
She said pitifully, and it seemed that her tears were about to fall.
Hearing this, the man’s heart became softer and softer, and he felt more sympathy for Maggie, especially when she was so beautiful.
“Don’t worry, I’ll help you,” he said seriously.
Maggie blinked her big eyes and nodded in surprise. She looked happy, but there was a hint of sarcasm in her eyes the moment she lowered her head. What a stupid man.
She just said, “How can the honey trap be useless?”
Later, the man took the milk box she ate and went out. After a long time, she came back. Seeing the light, Maggie immediately shrank up on guard.
Then, she heard a happy voice coming over. “Maggie, I brought you an electric light. In this way, you won’t be afraid at night. There will be mice to drive it away for you.”
What a simple concern, but she was not touched at all when she heard it. She only felt that this man was a fool.
“Thank you, Brother Wang,” she said weakly with a look of dependence.
The man also put a bowl of porridge in front of her with a straight face, touched his head and said, “This is hot porridge. Drink it quickly.”
She replied with an “oh” and picked it up with both hands. The porridge smelled like rice, but she didn’t have any appetite at all.
“Have a good sleep tonight. I’ll keep an eye on you. The young master will definitely come tomorrow. Tomorrow, you… cooperate well. The young master will let you go, okay?” he said softly. Although he looked ordinary, he looked honest.
Such a servant, so his young master was definitely not a gangster, but who on earth was he? Except for Ji Yan, she really didn’t remember who she had a feud with.
“Brother Wang, I’m a little cold. Could you lend me your coat for a night?” After finishing the porridge, she looked up at him and asked eagerly.
The man took off his coat and gave it to her without saying a word. Then he left with his things. Maggie looked at his coat with disdain.
The man also left the light to her. With the light, she could clearly see where she was. It was empty everywhere except for some wooden boxes beside the door.
Maggie fiddled with the coat and quickly took out a lighter from her pocket. She smelled the smoke on the man’s body. Since he was smoking, he should have a lighter on him. It was indeed right to take the coat over.
She sneered, stood up, and walked around slowly with a lighter in her hand.
When she reached the door and looked at the pile of wood, Maggie rolled her eyes and lit the wood.
