Jiang Nuan looked at him seriously and said with some disdain, "Don't take it off. With your physique, I wouldn't even look at you twice."
The man froze.
His feelings were deeply wounded.
His heart ached, and his body trembled!
Being scorned by the woman whose hands he had tied made him question his entire existence.
The man: "...Damn it, it's your blessing that I fancy you. Who do you think you are to not fancy me?"
The man's nose was practically crooked with anger.
"Young Master, shouldn't we get down to business?" the bodyguard standing not far away reminded him.
How did this conversation go so off-topic?
He could barely listen anymore.
Jiang Nuan was a woman, yet she said such things without blushing or her heart skipping a beat.
"Get lost! Am I not handling business right now?" the man asked, his voice becoming sharp with rage.
The bodyguard was stunned.
You're the kidnapper, how did you end up fancying the person you kidnapped?
"Young Master, we've already taken her from her home for over an hour. If her husband finds out she's not home, he'll be looking for her soon."
The bodyguard knew Mu Jiuchen was not to be trifled with and didn't want to get beaten.
The man smiled and said, "I've already told her husband to come find her himself. If her husband comes and sees us doing... that, imagine the expression on his face. Wouldn't it be incredibly amusing?"
The bodyguard: "..."
"Whether it's amusing or not, I know that if we don't act soon, our faces will be even more 'amusing' from getting beaten," the bodyguard knew the Young Master's personality.
He was just an overgrown child.
If he actually met Mu Jiuchen, he'd be instantly scared.
And he was so provoked by the Jiang Nuan in front of him that he was about to explode with anger, determined to vent his illness.
"Get out! How can you boost others' morale and dampen our own? Do you think I can't beat Mu Jiuchen?"
The man asked the bodyguard indignantly.
The bodyguard, risking a beating, said, "Young Master, although you're a trained fighter, you might not be able to beat Mu Jiuchen, who is nearly 1.9 meters tall."
The man froze: "!!"
The bodyguard saw a car entering the area and said, "Young Master, Mu Jiuchen is here."
Upon hearing this, the man quickly put on his clothes.
"Let's go." He ran faster than a rabbit.
Jiang Nuan: "..."
The bodyguard exclaimed in surprise, "Young Master, aren't you going to fight Mu Jiuchen?"
"I'll fight your great-grandfather! Can I beat Mu Jiuchen?" the man said to Jiang Nuan, "Next time, I'll get intimate with you first, humph!"
Jiang Nuan: "..."
This young master seems to be sick.
"Um, you really are sick. You should go to the hospital for a check-up when you have time," Jiang Nuan couldn't help but remind him.
"That's why I want the Ji Dan in your hands to treat my illness," the man roared at Jiang Nuan, looking angry.
His frivolous attitude lacked any gravitas.
Jiang Nuan: "..." Truly sick.
"Jiang Nuan, I'm very pathetic. Please pity me and give me the medicine." The young master's threat turned into a plea.
Only that medicine could save him. Living with this illness was worse than death, and he was truly fed up.
Jiang Nuan smiled and said, "I don't have much compassion. I save those who are fated to be saved. You just need to tell me who you are to my teacher. If you are his relative or family, I can save you."
The young master froze. Seeing Mu Jiuchen approaching, he said, "I'll find you next time."
Then, he left through another door with his two bodyguards.
In the dilapidated factory, the wind blew, making clanging sounds, and the atmosphere was somewhat eerie.
Jiang Nuan looked thoughtfully at their retreating backs.
Compassion, she truly didn't have much.
However, if they were her teacher's relatives, then she would have compassion.
"Nuannuan," Mu Jiuchen found her location and shouted.
As soon as he entered, he called out.
Jiang Nuan slowly stood up, looking at his anxious back, and smiled for a moment, "Husband, I'm here."
Mu Jiuchen turned around and, seeing her safe and sound, breathed a sigh of relief.
He rushed over and hugged her, "Wife, are you okay?"
After speaking, he kissed her lips forcefully.
The real softness reassured him.
The joy of loss and recovery enveloped him.
"Wife, what happened? How could someone dare to kidnap you from home and bring you here?"
After speaking, he scrutinized her from head to toe, ensuring she had no other external injuries before he relaxed.
Jiang Nuan also wanted to know who it was. She shook her head slightly and said, "I don't know who it was, but he was after my medicine."
"Medicine?" Mu Jiuchen looked at her.
Jiang Nuan explained, "When my teacher left, he left behind a life-saving elixir, Ji Dan. But only I in this world know about Ji Dan's existence. However, the person who kidnapped me today also knew about Ji Dan's existence. It should be my teacher's relative, or someone who knew my teacher?"
"He was wearing a mask, so I couldn't tell who he was."
Mu Jiuchen had never heard of such a miraculous medicine before.
"Nuannuan, do you know who your teacher was?" Judging by Nuannuan's medical skills, she was proficient in treating difficult and critical illnesses.
Many of the prescriptions she wrote were for medicines not found on the market.
Jiang Nuan shook her head, "I've never heard my teacher mention her family, nor do I know where she came from."
"My grandmother told me she was also a pitiable person. They lived together in a small courtyard for many years, and eventually, my teacher passed away first. I was with her when she died. Even in her final moments, she didn't say much, only that she was very fortunate to have met me in this life."
"Then she gave me Ji Dan and peacefully left this world."
After listening, Mu Jiuchen noticed her hands were tied. He quickly untied the ropes and looked at her wrists, which were red from the binding. Her fair skin looked severely marked.
Mu Jiuchen asked angrily, "Where is he?"
Jiang Nuan looked at him like an enraged lion and said with a half-smile, "He got scared and ran away when he saw you arrive."
Mu Jiuchen: "..."
Jiang Nuan: "Let's go, it's alright now."
Mu Jiuchen supported her as they walked out.
Not far away, the young master peeked out.
Seeing Mu Jiuchen's tall and sturdy figure, he pursed his lips. He really couldn't beat this man.
The tall man, his back view was indeed impressive.
"Luo Yi, you were so right. I really can't beat Mu Jiuchen with his height?"
Luo Yi: "..."
He knew it.
"Young Master, let's go back. We'll try a different method next time."
"Mm! Let's go. Next time, we'll tie Jiang Nuan to a hotel. Given her attitude, she might be scared in a hotel."
Luo Yi: !!
He didn't think Jiang Nuan would be scared.
...
In the car, Jiang Nuan looked at the silent Mu Jiuchen. The sunlight hit his face, making his features even more defined.
He still looked angry, his sexy lips tightly pursed.
Jiang Nuan smiled and asked, "The driver has been found."
Mu Jiuchen: "Mm! I beat him up and sent him to the police station."
Jiang Nuan smiled and looked at him, "Did you do it yourself?"
