Should he lie beside her? Or should I go to the guest bedroom?
After a moment of hesitation, he finally decided to stay. However, he took another blanket and spread it on the bed, and slept on the other side of her bed.
He suddenly jumped up from the bed, grabbed the phone on the bedside table and broke it. Upon closer inspection, it was Xie Ziyi calling.
Xie Ziyi waited for a long time, but when she saw that Pei Yaochen's phone was turned off, she couldn't help but feel annoyed. However, she could do nothing other than howl in anger and collapse onto the bed.
But she rolled her eyes and laughed again.
In truth, Pei Yaochen shutting down his phone represented a type of response, it was obvious that he was still angry at her. Since it was like this, then it meant that he still cared about her, and he was using this method to express his anger.
If that was the case, things would be much easier!
Just as he was rejoicing in his heart, he suddenly heard a commotion from outside.
Surprised, she sat up abruptly and nervously pricked up her ears to listen for movement outside.
Even though she had passed the night and the day in safety, even though Jason was acting more and more Gentleman now, it did not mean that she could sleep peacefully.
The wolf was still a wolf. There would be a day when he would not be able to resist the greed to eat the little white sheep beside him.
He listened for a long time, but nothing happened.
Xie Ziyi exhaled a long breath, thinking that she might have some ulterior motive.
She lay back down on the bed and closed her eyes. Just as she was about to have a good night's sleep, she heard a few faint screams that made her turn around and sit up again.
What was going on? Did he cause a ghost?
Xie Ziyi fiercely pressed on the light and listened carefully again. Indeed, she heard the miserable scream once again, but it was louder and clearer this time, and she was sure that the scream came from downstairs.
Did something happen?
Xie Ziyi was unsettled and quickly got off the bed and opened the door a crack.
This time, she heard it even more clearly. She not only heard the screams, but also heard the sounds of the lashes.
She grew more and more uneasy, and, out of curiosity, she opened the door and slipped out.
She wasn't wearing shoes, so she didn't make a sound when she walked, so when she stood at the foot of the stairs, no one downstairs noticed her presence at all.
She looked down and saw Jason sitting on the sofa in the middle of the living room. Five meters away from him, there was a man who was bound to a chair with all kinds of things, and his bare upper body was covered in wounds and blood from the whips.
Xie Ziyi was secretly shocked, thinking, was she executing family rules?
Although Jason tried his best to turn her into his family, she didn't want to. She was only using him for the time being, so it was best for her to avoid him.
She took a deep breath and quietly turned to leave, but then another scream almost made her jump. She looked over and saw that the man was awake, except that his shoes and socks had been taken off and placed in a large basin filled with water. Next to him, a tall, muscular black man was holding a wire as thick as a thumb and dipping it into the water.
Every time he put it down, that person would scream miserably. His entire body would twitch and his eyes would flip white. His appearance was extremely terrifying.
After electrocuting him several times, Jason's voice faintly sounded, "How is it? Do you want to tell me who else among us is a spy other than you? Why were the goods we were prepared to transport to City H investigated the moment they landed? "Speak!"
Hearing Jason's voice, Xie Ziyi felt goosebumps all over her body. She only felt that his voice was like a poisonous snake that was spitting out a long letter as it slowly swam towards her.
She didn't dare to continue listening and hurriedly turned to leave. She didn't know that when she turned around, Jason had actually raised his head to glance at her once, and the corner of his mouth hooked into an ice-cold smile.
When Xie Ziyi returned to his room, she was restless. She paced around the small room like an ant on a hot pan.
She and Jason hadn't known each other for long, so she didn't know each other well.
She had always thought that Jason was just very rich, so she didn't mind the bodyguards around him at all.
Even if Pei Yaochen told her that, she felt that she could easily control him. But now, she wasn't so sure.
The Pei family was also a underworld clan, but she had never seen Pei Junshan punishing a spy or betraying a member of a gang.
She suddenly realised that in front of Jason, she was indeed like a helpless little sheep. As long as he was willing, she could be crushed like an ant.
No matter how smart she was, she couldn't help but be afraid.
She didn't want to stay here anymore, not at all.
However, she was unwilling to just obediently return to Pei Yaochen's side.
Furthermore, even if she wanted to go back now, Jason would not be able to let her go easily.
What should he do?
How could he think of a way to safely escape with his life and drag Pei Yaochen back to the United States?
Xie Ziyi lowered her head and thought hard. Suddenly, she stopped, gritted her teeth, and quickly rushed into the bathroom. Turning on the lights, she casually grabbed a bottle of Facial Cleansing Milk and was about to throw it on the floor.
But she raised her hand high up and down, she couldn't make such a loud noise to alarm Jason.
She tore off a towel and wrapped it around the bottle of face washing milk layer by layer. Only then did she raise it high and violently smash it against the ground several times.
When she clearly heard the sound of glass shattering, she carefully opened the towel and saw that it was filled with wolf carcasses.
She picked up one of the sharp pieces of glass, looked up at the pale face in the mirror, and slashed at her hand, arm, and thigh.
Each wound wasn't deep, but blood was flowing from them. They all looked like blood, and the blood on them was extremely terrifying.
She took a closer look and was very satisfied. She put down the glass shards, then lowered her head and hit the wall hard.
The impact caused her to feel dizzy and fall to the ground. Fortunately, she didn't fall on top of that pile of glass fragments, otherwise, she would really be courting her own death.
She was so dizzy that she didn't get up immediately. She closed her eyes to rest for a while and felt dizzy. Then she slowly stood up with both hands on the ground. She looked in the mirror and sure enough, a fist-sized bag appeared on her forehead.
Taking a deep breath, she opened the water cage and lowered her head, letting the cold water rush straight down her head.
After a few minutes, she turned off the water and let her wet hair dribble about. Then she picked up her cell phone and took several pictures of herself.
Every picture looked so bloody and miserable, and the effect was far beyond what makeup could achieve.
She sent all the photos to Pei Yaochen and left behind a simple sentence — I'm going to die, save me.
Only after she was done did she begin to clean herself up.
After cleaning herself up, she threw the bath towel that was wrapped with a huge pile of broken glass into the dustbin.
After settling everything, she calmly turned around and walked out.
That night, she slept very peacefully.
Before dawn the next morning, Pei Yaochen was woken up by the sound of rain.
Remembering that the window in the living room was not closed, he hurriedly jumped out of bed and ran out. As expected, the window was wide open, the curtains billowing in the wind, and a thick layer of water had already accumulated on the floor under the window.
He hurried to close the window, then turned and dragged the floor with a mop and bucket.
After drying himself with great difficulty, he straightened his back only to see Xia Zhi's pale face swaying as she walked out.
Startled, he stepped forward, "What's wrong? Is it uncomfortable? "
Last night, he had been too crazy and worried that there would be a problem with her body. Now that he saw her walk out with a pale and disheveled face, he felt an extremely strong sense of crisis in his heart.
"What can I do for you?" Xia Zhi snuggled into his embrace with both hands around his neck, "I was just sleeping soundly when I heard quite a bit of noise coming from outside and curiously came out to take a look. I didn't expect you to be here to mop the floor! What should he do? How are you going to compensate me for disturbing my dreams? "
Pei Yaochen smiled as if a burden had been lifted off of his shoulders and he carried her up by the waist. He affectionately kissed her with his head lowered and asked: "How about I compensate you in the way I did last night?"
Hearing that, Xia Zhi shook her head like a rattle-drum in panic, "No no! I don't want it! I'm having a bad back right now, so don't ever come back here again! "" No, I don't. "" No, no. Pei Yaochen, don't bully me! "
"Alright. I don't bully you. We have a lifetime to wander. " Pei Yaochen smiled as he carried her and headed towards the bedroom, "It's still early, how about I sleep with you a little longer?"
"Yes." I like your company. With you here, I feel very safe and comfortable. " She closed her eyes wearily.
Before Pei Yaochen could put her on the bed, he heard her light snoring.
He smiled fondly, thinking how tired she was.
After covering her with a blanket, he quietly turned around and walked out. After washing the rice and boiling the porridge, he turned around and entered the room. He snuggled up against her as he gently lay down.
Looking at her serene and beautiful face, his lips could not help but twitch slightly. He lowered his head and placed a kiss on her cheek.
Of course, it was very, very light, so light that it did not disturb her dreams at all.
After being alone for a long time, she reluctantly got up and sat down. She casually picked up her phone to browse the news at home and abroad.
As soon as he opened it, he remembered that Xie Ziyi had sent a WeChat message last night. He frowned and then suddenly opened his WeChat.
When Xie Ziyi's bloodied photos and that line of information that seemed to request for help popped into her eyes, his face immediately turned green.
