Chapter 2570 - 54: Captured
At this moment, Ye Haoxuan had no idea that Li Luru, who had reached Yun’an Prefecture City, was undergoing a life-and-death escape.
Inside the room, it was very dark, and she couldn’t see the furnishings clearly. She remembered being lured here.
She arrived at the prefecture with San and the others at noon. Just after finishing lunch, the waiter handed her a note.
It said that the person she was looking for was known. Initially, she was not going to pay attention to it, but when she saw the pattern on the corners of the paper, she was taken aback.
Because this was the same kind of paper her master used to communicate with her back then, with familiar peach blossom patterns on the edges.
So she didn’t think much of it, and the address was at Three Mile Bridge in the west of the city. During lunch, she heard that Three Mile Bridge was a bustling area, and she thought a place with many people wouldn’t be dangerous, so she called Xiaobai and went out.
But when she got to Three Mile Bridge, someone else directed her to Five Mile Bridge. Once there, it didn’t take long for someone to tap her on the back, and when she turned around, a cloth was placed over her face.
Before she could remove the cloth, she lost consciousness.
In the dark, Li Luru wondered who had captured her?
After a short while, the door opened from outside.
An attendant lit a lamp, and only then did Li Luru see that a man and a woman had entered.
The woman was strikingly beautiful, and the man appeared noble, but there was an unsettling yin energy in their eyes.
"Heh... turns out you’re quite a beauty." The man spoke, "Ye Haoxuan is quite fortunate, isn’t he?"
When he mentioned Ye Haoxuan, Li Luru had a clue that this person might be the mastermind.
And capturing her likely meant they had discovered something.
"Whether his fortune is great or small is up to Second Young Master to decide." After a pause, the woman flatteringly said, "Even whether he is fortunate or not depends on whether Second Young Master gives him face, wouldn’t you agree?"
"Miss Bai is quite articulate."
The newcomers were none other than Second Young Master Situ and Miss Bai.
"I’ve always heard that Ye Haoxuan has many capable people under him. I did not believe it at first, but when even a little girl can ruin my plans, I have no choice but to believe it."
He squatted in front of Li Luru, gripping her chin with both hands, "Who do you think you are to dare to ruin my plan?"
"Whether I dare or not, it’s already done." Li Luru smiled, "Why did you capture me? To kill me out of anger? Then go ahead. I’m tired of living anyway."
"Want to die? It’s not that easy." Miss Bai stepped forward, "Tell us, what’s with the messenger bird, and how do you have it?"
"So, you led me here." Li Luru smiled, "It was you all along at the Heng River, right? Want to know about my Xiaobai, then first tell me who you are!"
"Heh... still dare to negotiate?" Miss Bai widened her eyes and said to Second Young Master, "Aren’t you going to teach her a lesson? Hard-headed people won’t talk unless you pull their teeth out."
Second Young Master ignored her, instead looking at Li Luru and asked with a smile, "Do you think Ye Haoxuan will come to save you, knowing I’ve kidnapped you?"
"How would I know? I am not him!" Li Luru rolled her eyes.
Second Young Master laughed again, "The fabric doll, did you make it?"
"What do you think?"
"The fabric used by the emperor, where did you get it?"
There was nothing to hide about this, so Li Luru said, "I dyed it myself."
"The saying is true; everyone around Ye Haoxuan is indeed capable."
