Chapter 295 - Finally Escaped (2/2)

Ji Nuan didn’t run very far. If she ran too far and were found by the people on the front, they would be alerted.

Noticing what happened on his side, she turned and ran back. Luckily, she brought two polished stone bowls from the cooking tent today. The bowls used here were all rough wooden and stone bowls. She had been carrying safe wooden bowls while Dali watched her. Today, when Dali and the old lady weren’t paying attention to her, she secretly brought the stone bowls, which turned out to be really useful.

She rushed back only to see that Mo Jingshen put guns to the heads of the two men. Mo Jingshen’s black shirt was slightly creased, and his hair was disheveled. As he hadn’t taken care of his appearance in days, his face was covered with a stubble, but his eyes remained knife-life sharp and black.

Ji Nuan had never seen him with a gun, but in this dangerous environment, only a gun could protect him.

She paused and suddenly picked up two palm-sized stones from the ground. Then she ran over and struck the two men on the head with the stones. Seeing they were hit, she took a deep breath and raised her eyes again, only to see Mo Jingshen silently looking at her.

“I think… they just fainted…,” Ji Nuan said uncertainty.

She hadn’t killed anyone… but these two stones must have hit them hard… not to mention that they were hit on the head…

Even if they were lucky enough to survive, they would become disabled.

Mo Jingshen withdrew his eyes and, seeing that the two men had indeed stopped moving, he stood up.

But the strength he had gathered when he came out of the cabin could only last for a moment. After all, he had eaten nothing for four or five days. He staggered when he got up, and Ji Nuan hurried forward to seize his arm and help him up.

Mo Jingshen stood up slowly, examined the remaining bullets in the two guns he had in his hand, and shoved a handful of them into Ji Nuan’s sleeve. Ji Nuan’s white dress had no pockets, but her wide sleeves could contain something.

“How are you?” Regardless of anything else, Ji Nuan had her eyes fixed on his pale face. But even if he hadn’t eaten for days, she could still feel the strength in his body as she held his arm.

Instead of answering, he gave her an in-depth look. Listening to the approaching buzzing sound in the sky, he asked, “How did you come here?”

Her fears and grievances, which had lurked in her heart for so many days, all came out at once with his belated query. She held back her tears and stared at him aggrievedly. “You asked me to wait for you, and you said you would take me back to Hai City, but you did not show up. So, since you didn’t show up, I came to you.”

Despite her simple words, Cambodia was not a comfortable place to be.

“Ji Nuan.” Mo Jingshen looked at her seriously. But he had no time to blame her for coming to Cambodia or ask her how she got caught, so he said gravely, “From now on follow me closely. When Nan Heng and his men arrive, leave with them immediately. Just listen to me. Don’t be self-willed, okay?”

Ji Nuan wanted to ask what he would do if she left with them. Was he going to stay and deal with these outlaws?

But in the end, she swallowed back the words on the tip of her tongue. She stared at his face and suddenly said, “Okay, I will protect myself for the sake of our baby!”
