Seeing that Gu Li had finished all the water in her cup, Mo Shiting had no choice but to follow suit and drink the remaining water.
The sleeping pill acted incredibly fast, and about a minute later, he closed his eyes and fell asleep on the sofa.
Gu Li glanced back at the clock on the wall, 21:30.
There was still over an hour until the agreed 11 o’clock with the Black Blood League, enough time for her to rush there.
“Brother Ting, I will definitely return safely.”
She leaned over and kissed Mo Shiting’s face, gazing at him affectionately for a long, long time before leaving reluctantly.
Once out of the Pear Garden, the mobile phone that she had been holding in her hand vibrated.
Gu Li lifted it to see that it was a call from Murong Si.
Why would he call at this hour? Could it be related to Sister Qian?
Without hesitation, Gu Li answered, “Brother Si————————— ”
“Little Pear, are you okay?”
Murong Si’s voice was full of urgency and thick concern.
Gu Li was somewhat puzzled, “I’m fine, why do you ask?”
“As long as you’re okay!”
Murong Si sighed in relief, “The kidnappers just called me and said you were kidnapped, and told me to bring a ransom to the fishing port dock for your release. I didn’t believe it, luckily, I had a chance to confirm with you.”
Hearing this, Gu Li felt something wasn’t right.
Didn’t the people from the Black Blood League just ask her to take Brother Ting there?
What does this have to do with Murong Si?
“Little Pear, are you listening to me?”
Gu Li snapped back to reality, “Brother Si, Sister Qian was the one who was kidnapped, not me.”
“What?”
Murong Si was tremendously shocked, “Are you saying that Murong Qian was kidnapped? Why did they kidnap her? No wait, why did they lie to me and say you were the one who was kidnapped?”
Gu Li sighed, “I don’t know.”
“I see.”
Murong Si quickly analyzed, “They must be aware that, to me, you matter a lot more than Murong Qian.”
Gu Li:
“Little Pear, if you were kidnapped, I would expend all my resources to get you back.”
Murong Si began to express his feelings in imaginative ways.
Yet Gu Li was unmoved, and steered the conversation back to Murong Qian, “Alright then, now that Sister Qian has been kidnapped, as her cousin, are you going to save her or not?”
Murong Si fell silent.
Seeing that he did not respond, Gu Li pretended to hang up the phone, “Alright, if you’re not going to save her, I’ll go myself.”
SHe had thought that since the Black Blood League had called him anyway, why not outsmart them?
Moreover, having an extra pair of hands at the scene wouldn’t be a bad thing.
But surprisingly, he hesitated.
This was truly heartbreaking for her cousin.
In terms of familial relationships, he and Qian are supposed to be blood siblings…
“Wait, you’re going to save her yourself? Do you want to die?”
Hearing that she was going on her own, Murong Si was extremely irritated.
He had painstakingly set up a trap to kill Mo Shiting, only for him to escape in broad daylight; he then had no choice but to kidnap Murong Qian and force Gu Li to comply, but this little girl had the audacity to refuse to involve Mo Shiting, and was willing to risk it all alone…
Damn it!
Murong Si subconsciously clenched his fist, and his handsome face was shrouded in darkness.
“Where’s Mo Shiting? Why is he not accompanying you? Is he even a man?”
He seized the opportunity to slander his romantic rival.
Unexpectedly, she immediately defended him: “This has nothing to do with him, I don’t want to involve him.”
“You ”
It was his miscalculation.
He had underestimated the importance of Mo Shiting in this girl’s heart.
He shouldn’t have ordered the kidnapping of Murong Qian, he should have kidnapped this girl…
The more Murong Si thought about it, the angrier he became, and a glimmer of madness crossed his eyes. “Wait for me at the entrance of Gu’s house, I’ll drive, and we’ll go together.”
“Alright.”
Without suspecting anything, Gu Li agreed readily, and quickly walked towards the main entrance.
Ten minutes later, she finally saw Murong Si driving towards her.
“Get in.”
Murong Si personally helped her open the car door of the front passenger seat.
Gu Li promptly got in, fastened her seat belt, and said, “Brother Si, the ones who kidnapped Sister Qian are from the Black Blood League. How much do you know about this organization?”
Murong Si’s grip on the steering wheel stiffened slightly, his eyes flickered with a hidden sheen, as he nonchalantly ventured, “Not much, just that they are very target-oriented. They never spare the people they want to kill. But, why would they kidnap Murong Qian? Could it be that their ultimate target is Mo Shiting?”
“Yes!”
Seeing that he had guessed correctly, Gu Li no longer hid anything, “They wanted Brother Ting and me to go there together. I’ve arranged for someone to disguise as Brother Ting and wait near the dock..”
