Chapter 385: To the OuYang Family

n more. 。"Cheng Ke Xin, you... why, did you save me" Su Ya Fen was now finding it very difficult to speak, her voice strained as if she were enduring extreme pain. 。Cheng Kexin looked into Su Yaofen's...The grand hall was empty, the light from the crystal chandelier suddenly reflecting on my face, making it feel surreal.

Xu Zui'ning and Zhou Shuangqing looked at each other in astonishment. They had just been in the cold, damp basement, and beyond that, there was only a wall at the end of the corridor.

They thought their journey had ended here, but after a tremor beneath their feet, they suddenly found themselves outside.

Xu Zui'ning took two steps forward, looked at the wall behind her, and then fumbled around on it. Suddenly, she understood.

The continent where she once lived, although traditional Chinese medicine was very developed, lacked anything mechanical.

But they had one thing, now almost obsolete, which were those earthen mechanisms.

It's obvious that this wall is a high-tech earthen mechanism. There's a noticeable bulge on the wall, and I suspect that if you press it...the wall will rotate.

And what was once a dead end, will directly take you to another space.

That is to say, she and Zhou Shuangqing had switched places with Evelette Madam and Wei Moze who were just talking in the living room.

According to what the two of them just said, and then suddenly flipping the switch, they're probably going down to the basement to do an experiment!

Xu Zui'ning's expression was cold, time was pressing. The two of them wouldn't be able to use a few minutes before they discovered that the person in the cage had already run away.

She's probably going to be surrounded soon, and with Zhou Shuangqing, an ordinary female student, she probably won't be able to escape.

"Hurry up!"

Xu Zui'ning grabbed Zhou Shuangqing's hand and the two of them sprinted towards the main entrance.

There were indeed four black-clad bodyguards at the main gate, but these four guards were just ordinary bodyguards, not mercenaries or retired soldiers like those difficult to deal with.

The bodyguards noticed two girls running towards them and instinctively assumed a fighting stance, ready to stop the girls.

Although Xu Zui Ning thought these 4 bodyguards weren't difficult to handle, Zhou Shuangqing was just an ordinary student and was so scared her legs felt like jelly.

Xu Zui, with lightning-fast reflexes, darted between the four people like a ghost. With just two palm strikes, she knocked down both of the black-clad bodyguards.

The remaining two guards hadn't figured out how their companion had fallen, when a needle struck the back of their necks. Just like their companions, they went limp and collapsed.

After a long, deep breath, Xu Zui Ning suppressed the racing of her heart and pulled Zhou Shuangqing along as they continued to run outwards.

Although these four bodyguards aren't difficult to handle, if I can't rely on my speed and agility to strike first...

If you were to try and fight them head-on, your chances of winning would probably be less than 1%.

Just now that move was considered a bold tactic, but it wasn't entirely successful.

Zhou Shuangqing just mechanically followed Xu Zui'ning as she ran, her mind already a blank.

To her surprise, the Wei family's guards weren't as numerous as she had expected. After taking down the four bodyguards at the entrance, Xu Zui'ning was able to make her way outside without any further obstacles.

Xu Zui-ning hailed a taxi on the roadside. Both girls got in the car, still shaken up.

Zhou Shuangqing sat in the back row, for some reason her eyes were red.

"Are you okay Were you scared"

Xu Zui Ning lowered her head in some self-reproach. She had always been by Zhou Shuangqing's side, but she always seemed to bring danger to her.

This really opened her eyes. As long as Zhou Shuangqing was around, she wouldn't have a moment of safety.

When those people came at him, they didn't care if they hurt innocents. Zhou Shuangqing, even if he was completely unaware of these events, always seemed to be caught in their web.

"I'm not really... I just haven't quite come to terms with it yet."

Zhou Shuangqing raised her head and forced a smile, her face as pale as paper.

Xu Zui Ning also sighed, she now even if comfort too much it's no use ah, things have already happened, Zhou Shuang Qing's heart has already been hit.

Where can one soothe with just a few words The most urgent thing is to ensure the safety of the two of them.

After much deliberation, she realized that only Ou Yang Chu had the capability to protect her. So, she directly dialed Ou Yang Chu's phone number.

I thought Ouyang Chu must be very busy, so even if he picked up the phone, it would probably ring for a while before he answered.

Unexpectedly, the phone rang only once before being picked up. Ouyang Chu's low and slightly hoarse voice came through.

"Hello Xu Zhuining What's wrong"

Xu Zui'ning was still thinking about something else when the phone call came unexpectedly. She was so startled that she couldn't speak for a moment.

The man across from him was clearly getting anxious, his voice a bit frantic.

"Why aren't you talking What's wrong"

It was only then that Xu Zui Ning suddenly felt her own eyes welling up.

"Zhou Shuangqing and I were... kidnapped, just escaped, can we come to you now"

Ouyang Chu's voice suddenly turned sour.

“Of course, no wonder you didn't answer so many calls from me... I can't believe this happened! It's all my fault for not being able to protect you…”

While OuYang Chu was still agonizing over his face, Xu Zhuining's tears silently flowed down her cheeks.

Actually, no one in this world is born alone.

Xu Zui Ning was the same, in both her past and present life, she had always strived to rely on herself.

Never rely on others, and never pin your hopes on them.

Because she felt that no one would be more reliable than herself, and no one would be willing to go to such lengths for her, sacrificing their own well-being.

If giving your all means being let down, then why bother being serious from the beginning

If everything relies on oneself, one will never be let down. If one gets used to relying on oneself, one will become strong enough.

But the wall she had built in her heart was suddenly broken, and the dark, bottomless depths within her were warmed by sunlight that suddenly streamed in through the cracks.

Originally, if he encountered such a situation, even if he had already solved it himself, he wouldn't think it was a big deal.

But once there's a being who can act cute, the whole person instantly becomes weak and just wants to rely on him.

But in just these few short seconds, Xu Zui-ning had adjusted her state of mind, though her voice was still somewhat choked with emotion.

"It's not your fault. Things like this can't be predicted, and I actually ventured into a den of tigers this time and got some very useful information. Let's talk when we meet again!"

After hanging up, the car fell silent again.Tianxiang couldn't force her. Though he was reluctant, he still nodded and promised to only escort her downstairs.After a few hours, it was almost lunchtime. An Tianxiang sent Yang Ning to the hotel d...
