The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was amiss. In the end, Tang Moling couldn’t help but excuse himself by saying that he had something to attend to and had to go back. He then drove the car to the entrance of the village and arrived at the mill.

He had thought of many scenarios, but when he saw Mu Jingzhe alone, he couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.

​ 

While he was feeling relieved, Mu Jingzhe was alarmed by his appearance. She had finally managed to get away from everyone, so why was Tang Moling there? Those who didn’t know better would think that she had schemed against Tang Moling and wanted to you-know-what him!

Mu Jingzhe hurriedly buttoned her shirt. “What are you doing here? Get out quickly.”

“What? What’s wrong with you?” It was noisy inside the mill, so Tang Moling couldn’t hear what Mu Jingzhe was saying and took two steps forward.

“I said, don’t come over!” Mu Jingzhe was abnormally sensitive at the moment. She turned around and glanced at him. “If you don’t want to die, leave quickly.”

Tang Moling couldn’t leave at the moment. He had noticed Mu Jingzhe’s unusually red face. “Do you have a fever?”

“I do not. I’m busy. Leave quickly.”

Mu Jingzhe thought to herself, ‘Don’t force me to make a move.’

However, just as she finished speaking, the door was suddenly closed and locked.

Mu Jingzhe reacted. “Who is it? Open the door!”

A series of footsteps could be heard from outside before quickly disappearing into the distance. It was useless no matter how loudly Mu Jingzhe called out.

The place where the two of them were was special. The sound of water and the sound of grinding stone could be heard. When they spoke inside, they had to get closer and speak loudly. Their cries for help couldn’t possibly be heard.

F*ck. Mu Jingzhe wanted to curse.

She had finally managed to reverse the situation of the original Mu Jingzhe, who had been snatching Mu Xue’s things and men. In the end, this was happening to her. Furthermore, it was happening in this special place at this special time.

In that case, she might as well have gone home!

Mu Jingzhe pushed the door a few times but didn’t manage to open it. This was a newly-replaced cement door. Previously, the mill had also been renovated when the power lines had been set up. After laying the ground with cement, they had used the remaining cement to make a cement door.

No matter how strong Mu Jingzhe was, without a tool, she couldn’t open the cement door.

Mu Jingzhe looked around in despair when she realized that she couldn’t open the cement door. Other than a small ventilation window, there was no other way out of the mill.

Forget aboutTang Moling. Even she couldn’t get out of the small window.

Mu Jingzhe’s head turned numb. “Why didn’t you listen to me when I asked you to leave?!”

Tang Moling was a little confused. “I didn’t expect this either.”

He hadn’t arranged all this. He didn’t know who had made the arrangements either. This was the first time he was in such a small space with Mu Jingzhe, or even in the same room with her. His heart couldn’t help but beat faster.

Tang Moling coughed. “What should we do now?” Although he was confused and surprised, perhaps because he had been in too much pain previously, Tang Moling felt an inexplicable sense of relief amidst his anxiety.

Luckily, he was the one locked up with Mu Jingzhe, not that Li Hua. Otherwise, Li Hua might have…

Tang Moling looked at Mu Jingzhe under the light and realized that there was something wrong with her. Her face seemed to be getting redder and redder, and she was even sweating a little. Her breathing also seemed a little off.

“Mu Jingzhe, your face is getting redder and redder. What’s going on?” Tang Moling’s heart skipped a beat.

He had seen and experienced a lot. In fact, he had almost been tricked in the past. It immediately occurred to Tang Moling what was going on.

“Is this Li Hua’s doing?” Tang Moling reached out to pull Mu Jingzhe, wanting to confirm her condition.

Mu Jingzhe suddenly took a step back. She was indeed getting increasingly uncomfortable and wanted to take off her clothes more and more each second. She was already struggling, but she hadn’t expected Tang Moling to realize it and even want to touch her.

Mu Jingzhe didn’t want to experience what had been written in the novel—just one touch and she wouldn’t be able to help wanting to get closer. This wasn’t just anyone. It was the male lead, Tang Moling.

If she dared to do anything with him, she would probably die without knowing how it had happened.

She had to nip this threat in the bud! Mu Jingzhe made a decision in an instant. She decided to go all in. Taking advantage of Tang Moling’s lack of defense, she retreated and suddenly moved forward. She swiftly went behind his back and struck his neck, knocking him out.

Tang Moling was caught off guard. A moment earlier, when he saw Mu Jingzhe move toward him again, he felt indescribable excitement and joy.

He knew that Mu Jingzhe had been drugged and that he was right beside her. At that moment, he even thought that if anything were to happen between them, it would be unavoidable. It would be heaven’s choice.

At least, he would rather it was him than anyone else.

Just as Tang Moling thought of this, his heart skipped a beat. A second later, he felt pain on the back of his neck and his vision darkened. He passed out immediately.

Before he fainted, Tang Moling widened his eyes, unable to wrap his head around it.

Tang Moling fainted unwillingly, feeling confused, and Mu Jingzhe heaved a sigh of relief.

It was safer to knock out all the male creatures at that moment in case he came to take advantage of her. If she couldn’t tolerate it, it would make it easier for her to take action.

Realizing what she was thinking, Mu Jingzhe secretly spat. No way would she take action against him.

Mu Jingzhe tied up Tang Moling’s hand with a rope and moved him to the door. This way, even if he woke up, it would be difficult for him to move because his hands would be bound.

After doing all of this, Mu Jingzhe felt that the effects of the drug were about to erupt.

As she felt increasingly uncomfortable, she couldn’t stand it anymore and took off her shirt.

After taking off her shirt, Mu Jingzhe only had a short singlet on. However, the moment she took off her shirt, she felt much more comfortable and instantly let out a breath.

After exhaling, she saw Tang Moling. Thinking that Tang Moling would see her in this state when he woke up, Mu Jingzhe thought for a while and covered Tang Moling’s eyes with her shirt to prevent him from peeking.

After doing all this, Mu Jingzhe immediately distanced herself from Tang Moling.

However, perhaps because she had taken off her clothes, her skin was still a little red, but it wasn’t as itchy and hot as before.

Mu Jingzhe heaved a sigh of relief. “Looks like the drug’s effects are wearing off.”

She started to wish that the children would come back soon and look for her.

She looked at the time. Usually, they’d be back by now, but for some reason, the children never came to look for her.

“Just wait a little longer. Just wait a little longer.”

Now that Mu Jingzhe felt less uncomfortable, after some thought, she removed her shirt from his eyes and put it on again.

However, the moment she put it on, she felt uncomfortable again, just like she had before.

So, she couldn’t wear clothes? What kind of drug was this? It was too spooky!

Mu Jingzhe cursed and had just taken off her shirt when she heard a groan. Tang Moling had woken up.

Mu Jingzhe saw this and reacted quickly. At the same time that Tang Moling opened his eyes, she quickly pulled the shirt over his head. “You’re not allowed to peek.”

Tang Moling: “…”

After being knocked out for no reason, he finally woke up. When he opened his eyes, his eyes were covered again. His vision darkened once more, and only a faint light could be seen.

“What are you doing?” Tang Moling asked. His mind couldn’t help but recall the last scene he had seen before his eyes had been covered. His heart couldn’t help but race again. It seemed like Mu Jingzhe couldn’t hold it in anymore.

Feeling around, Tang Moling realized that his hands had also been tied up. She had tied his hands and covered his eyes. She was doing all this in order to…

As this thought flashed across his mind, Tang Moling blushed. “Jingzhe, actually, there’s…”

Actually, there was no need to do this. He… He was willing.
