Xiang Wan didn’t put up a struggle. She didn’t want to provoke and accelerate any evil thoughts in him.

“I don’t understand what you mean.”

“You don’t?” Ye Lun raised an eyebrow and drew closer to her face with a smile. “I can tell you about it.”

He said this softly with a smile, she could feel some of his warm breath on her ear.

She felt an uncomfortable feeling in her stomach and turned her head away, enduring the discomfort without making any sound.

Nonetheless, that slight bitter expression was still caught by Ye Lun.

He had a sinister look and he used more strength to grip her chin. “You don’t like me touching you?” He asked coldly.

A man and a woman inside a room. Behind them, there was a bed.

Such words were ambiguous and awkward. If she was not careful, she would cause misfortune to herself.

Xiang Wan frowned uncomfortably. She only looked at him seriously and didn’t retort him. “I feel uncomfortable…”

Ye Lun’s face turned grim.

When she saw that she immediately added, “I’m thinking if you can help me buy a packet of sanitary pads?”

Eh? Ye Lun scrutinized her.

“It’s coming soon,” said Xiang Wan calmly, “I already feel unwell and now that I’m being locked up here, my stomach’s really uncomfortable and I feel pain all over… Do you really think I feel happy and at ease like that?”

This answer was good, for it was safe.

Ye Lun looked at her coldly for a moment.

“You’re very smart.”

Xiang Wan faced his gaze and remained quiet.

Ye Lun laughed again, revealing a row of white teeth like a cunning fox.

“Did you think that I will let you off when you say that… Hmm, Teacher Xiang, maybe you don’t really understand men. At least, you don’t understand men like me…” Ye Lun seemed to have thought of something after he said that a teasing and evil look appeared on his face. “When a woman’s on her period, the experience will be better than usual, don’t you know that?”

Xiang Wan’s face went pale. “I don’t think you’re interested in me?”

Ye Lun said while smiling, “Initially, I didn’t have much interest. Now… I suddenly am interested.”

Xiang Wan chose to keep quiet lest she angered him.

Ye Lun smiled devilishly. “I want to know what Bai Muchuan’s woman tastes like. What kind of charm she has that he would actually give up a beauty like Xie Wanwan. You even charmed Cheng Zheng, a man who’s unbothered and indifferent to the world, to fall head over heels for you…”

Hur!

This is bleeping funny, she thought to herself.

What exactly did Cheng Zheng do?

A big question could be seen on Xiang Wan’s face…

“Can’t you tell me what happened? What has this got to do with Cheng Zheng?”

Naturally, she diverted the topic.

Naturally, Ye Lun’s focus was thus diverted away.

His fingers stroked her chin slowly, looking at her exquisite facial features as he raised his eyebrows slightly. “Cheng Zheng sent a private message to the account where the third episode of the murderer’s script was posted. He told me that he is willing to take the biochemical dispenser as well as the technology to create the HW gas… to exchange for you.”

What?!

Xiang Wan was dumbstruck for a moment.

“In other words… he wants to use himself, to exchange for you.” Ye Lun continued to laugh. He seemed keen on the deal. “He told me that he was involved in the study of the HW gas and that he is able to replicate the biochemical weapon that Heaven’s Wrath stole… Hur, do you think I can trust this person?”

Xiang Wan did not reply.

“Very interesting.” Ye Lun muttered to himself. “He’s right to say that I won’t be able to have much use for it even if I got hold of the biochemical dispenser as it’s only a matter of time that it will be used up as the amount is really little. But if I can get someone who is able to make it… that’s a real treasure.”

Then, he turned to look at Xiang Wan, revealing a half-smile and nodding his head.

“From what I know, he’s one of Professor James’s best students in Country X. And Professor James, he’s one of the researchers involved in the research of biochemical weapons…”

What!

Seems like Ye Lun knew a lot.

Xiang Wan didn’t want to answer this question. “Mister Ye, I feel that you should use me… to exchange for your dad. Won’t that be more meaningful instead? Don’t you think so?”

The mention of An Ying made Ye Lun turned grim.

His good mood was lost because of that name, including the interest in her.

He let go of Xiang Wan’s chin and snorted coldly. “Do you think that the police will agree? Do you think that I’m a fool?”

“Isn’t it the same when you asked the police for the HW gas? Why did you think that the police would agree?”

Ye Lun paused for a while and gave a sneer. “Because there are fools like Bai Muchuan and Cheng Zheng… They won’t break into the detention center but getting the dispenser is something more achievable.”

“Hur!” Xiang Wan found herself speechless.

“What are you laughing at? Are you especially glad?”

“I’m just a hostage. What’s there to be happy about?”

“A good man like Cheng Zheng… is willing to take risks for you. Aren’t you happy about it?”

“…”

Xiang Wan had not come into contact with Cheng Zheng for a long time.

Although they were working in the same building, they seldom met each other.

The last time they talked to each other was at the canteen. Cheng Zheng even told her that there was someone suitable for him and he might want to take the relationship a step further… At that time, Xiang Wan was glad for him from the bottom of her heart. She even felt that Cheng Zheng had done the correct thing as that fitted perfectly to what he had always believed in – egoism, where he treated self-interest as the foundation of morality.

Yup!

That was Cheng Zheng in Xiang Wan’s heart.

He seemed to have no special feelings for anyone.

He was not a compassionate person. In fact, he was rather apathetic and lived in his own world.

He always showed a cold and detached look to others…

He loved himself and he didn’t love anyone else.

That was the main reason why Xiang Wan rejected him back then.

No matter how good a choice he was, Xiang Wan didn’t want a cold-blooded animal for a husband. When there would come a day that there were changes in their life or a dangerous situation occurred, this type of person would abandon her without qualms.

Never to expect…

Xiang Wan had never expected that…

If the one who came was Bai Muchuan, she wouldn’t be surprised.

As for Cheng Zheng – seriously speaking, she didn’t want him to come.

No one should incur debts from those that they didn’t love.

She was unable to repay him for such a favor.

…

Xiang Wan did not know if Cheng Zheng had the ability to recreate the HW gas. Of course, Ye Lun wouldn’t believe him totally either. However, for him, since someone was willing to make a deal and he had nothing to lose, there was no reason to reject that.

After all, he could gain an additional hostage, what was not good about this?

He had never thought of letting Xiang Wan off.

…

It was after midnight and there was a thick mist on the road.

The mist settled on the windscreen, tiny beads of water flowing down slowly at the corners.

Cheng Zheng turned on the windscreen wipers.

There were no street lights on the road. The car headlights could only see this much as its vision was limited by a lack of lights and the dense misty weather.

Therefore, he had to drive slowly.

When his mobile phone rang, the whole car seemed to be buzzing as well.

Cheng Zheng took a look at the caller ID and picked up the call. “Hello!”

“Where are you?” He heard Bai Muchuan’s impatient and anxious voice.

“You should be able to find my location!” Cheng Zheng told him casually, “Treat me as a case of violation of rules, and it’ll be simple. Once you get my location, come quickly…”

“Do you think that by doing so, I can steer clear of any responsibility? You’re too naive!” Bai Muchuan commanded in a cold tone, “Hurry up, tell me your location now or I will look for you openly!”

The moment he did that, it would mean that many people would come to know what was going on.

And if more people came to know about this, the aftermath of this episode would be difficult to handle.

Cheng Zheng remained silent for a moment. “I’m confident that I can ensure her safety. The rest is up to you…”

“I’m bleeping asking you where you are now?!”

Bai Muchuan yelled at him and interrupted what he was going to say.

“Cheng Zheng, for you and Xiang Wan’s safety. You must tell me your whereabouts now, immediately! And, you must cooperate with us—”
