The Wealthy Psychic Lady: 99 Stolen Kisses

Chapter 1357: I Only Want You (55)

Jing Chu began to tense up, well aware that it was her only chance to escape.

She could not afford to lose it, for it would never come by again!

The shopping district was underground and, thus, they made their way down the stairs slowly. Jing Chu tried her best to walk as slowly as possible. However, the men clearly did not allow her to waste any time and continued to push and nudge her down the stairs.

She was thus pushed to the washroom.

However, the men were rather sharp and did not allow her to enter the female washroom. After all, they were afraid that she would escape from the windows or borrow a mobile phone and call for help.

Hence, they brought her straight into a cubicle in the gents’.

They completely ignored the other men inside.

Jing Chu’s heart sank as she closed the door.

She initially thought that she could take the chance to escape. Yet, it was entirely impossible.

She sat on the toilet bowl cover. Just as she was feeling lost, the person in the cubicle next door extended his arm below the partition and handed her a mobile phone.

Jing Chu immediately grabbed the mobile phone. During her hospitalization, the bodyguards whom Fan Shixin had sent to protect her taught her some simple numbers and how to count. Fan Shixin had also given her his mobile number, as well as a new mobile phone that she could use to call him in times of emergency. Hence, she had already memorized Fan Shixin’s mobile number and mastered the functions of a mobile phone.

Jing Chu knew that it would not be a wise choice to make a call since she would have to speak up. Hence, she decided to send Fan Shixin a text message instead. It read: “I’m Jing Chu. I’m in the gents’ of an underground shopping district. The person in the cubicle beside me lent me his mobile phone. Don’t call.”

It took her several minutes to type the message.

After the message was delivered successfully, she added, “The people outside are bad.”

Her vocabulary was limited.

She then handed the mobile phone back to the person in the cubicle next door, who naturally read the messages that she had sent.

Time passed by, minute after minute. Soon, the man began knocking on the door and hollered, “Are you done yet!?!”

“Almost. I’m having the runs,” Jing Chu answered. Her palms had already turned sweaty due to her immense nervousness.

Jing Chu was ill at ease and the men outside were losing their patience. They banged on the door continuously, causing Jing Chu to panic. Finally, she flushed the toilet bowl and opened the door.

She still did not hear any sounds from the cubicle next door.

When she opened the door, the man in the cubicle did too. He had outstandingly handsome features, and he was clearly the one who had lent her the mobile phone.

He began washing his hands at the basin.

The men dragged Jing Chu away.

All of a sudden, Jing Chu realized that the men were missing. She turned around to see that they were lying on the ground.

The handsome man was holding a silencer in his hand.

Fortunately, there was no one else in the washroom. He then dragged the two men into a cubicle and wiped away the bloodstains on the ground before throwing the tissues into the dustbin.

Jing Chu was completely dumbstruck and had yet to recover from the shock even when he was about to leave the washroom, clad in a cap and a pair of shades.

However, she could not be bothered anymore at this point.

Jing Chu tried to bear with the pain in her legs and sprinted forward together with him. They left through a different exit. As soon as they left, Fan Shixin arrived with his subordinates. His heart sank the moment he saw the men inside the washroom, and he instructed his subordinates to retrieve a copy of the surveillance camera footage before erasing the original copy. He then brought the two men back.

Jing Chu was panting heavily and could no longer gather the energy to continue running. The man then brought her back to his car.

“Where do you live? I’ll send you home.”

“I... I don’t have a home.”

“Where can I send you to?”

“Do you know... where An Xiaoning lives?”

The man asked in surprise, “An Xiaoning? Do you belong to her?”

“She’s like an older sister who had once rescued me.”

“Got it.” The man then began driving to Wei Ni Estate.

She initially thought that the man would leave after dropping her off. To her surprise, he alighted from the car together with her and removed his mask and shades.

Jing Chu stared at him and said, “Thank you for saving me.”

The man looked at her and said, “Don’t mention it.”

Xiao Bai opened the door and received a great shock the moment he saw them.

“Is An Xiaoning home?”

“Young Madam is in.”

“Take me in.”

“No, I must inform her first.”

“Go on, then.”

Xiao Bai scurried off quickly.

He returned shortly after and said, “Young Madam allows you guys to enter.”

Noticing that Jing Chu was limping, the man grabbed her by her arm and helped her inside.

An Xiaoning and Jin Qingyan immediately understood what had happened. “Shixin called to tell me that Jing Chu had been rescued. I was wondering who the kind Samaritan is. Pei Yi, you’ve really done a good deed.”

Jing Chu’s savior was none other than Pei Yi. He removed his cap and said with a smirk, “What’s wrong? Are you very surprised?”

“Yes, I am. You don’t seem like someone who would do such a kind deed. However, I still have to thank you for saving her.” An Xiaoning then walked toward Jing Chu and asked, “How are you feeling? Were you terribly frightened?”

Jing Chu hugged her and said, “Sister, I was horrified.”

“Everything’s alright now,” An Xiaoning said while patting her on the shoulder. An Xiaoning initially thought that the stench of urine on her body arose because she had peed herself out of fear. However, An Xiaoning was thoroughly impressed by her wit after hearing her words. She said, “Hurry and go take a shower, then change into a fresh set of clothes.”

An Xiaoning instructed the servants to take Jing Chu to the bathroom.

“Have a seat,” An Xiaoning said to Pei Yi while pointing at the couch.

Pei Yi took a seat. He had not seen her again since the last time they met at the restaurant. He was rather surprised that she would allow him inside her house.

“You’re cohabiting so openly. Are you two getting married again?”

Jin Qingyan snapped, “None of your business. We won’t be inviting you anyway.”

Pei Yi smiled and said, “Jin Qingyan, I’m talking to An Xiaoning. Can you not interrupt?”

“I have the right to answer on her behalf.”

An Xiaoning smacked him, hinting for him to stop being rude.

Fan Shixin entered the house, only to be greeted with the shocking sight of Pei Yi. “Young Madam...”

“Speak your mind. Pei Yi was the one who had rescued Jing Chu.”

Fan Shixin asked Pei Yi, “Did you kill those two people?”

Pei Yi answered arrogantly, “Why are you asking the obvious?”

“Young Madam, we have to investigate those two men. Their mobile phones are on them. I shall look into it and see if I can find any clues.”

“Alright, go ahead.”

Fan Shixin nodded and left.

“Can I stay here for tonight?”

“There are so many luxurious hotels available out there,” Jin Qingyan answered vehemently, clearly not wanting to let him stay for the night.
