Chapter 806 - He Was the One Who Saved Her (2/2)

Qiao Yanze walked in front of Nan Yao, kicking at her shoulder without any concern for her.

“Where is she now?” Qiao Yanze’s eyes were cold. “If she loses even a single strand of hair, I will definitely kill you!”

Hearing the viciousness in his voice, Nan Yao trembled in fear.

She looked up at Pei Xuan. Seeing this, Pei Xuan kicked at her other shoulder. “What are you stuttering about? Speak quickly, where is Nan Zhi?”

“S-She was kidnapped by Boss Long. Boss Long said that she’s cunning and tricky and managed to convince another kidnapper to let her run away…”

Qiao Yanze’s expression was so dark one could sc.r.a.p a layer of frost off his face. “Contact Boss Long now. If Nan Zhi has lost a strand of hair, the two of you are accountable for it! Go!”

Qiao Yanze got his bodyguard to look after Nan Yao and Pei Xuan before he hurriedly rushed towards the fis.h.i.+ng village Nan Zhi was held captive at.

…

Boss Long did not managed to catch up to Nan Zhi, but Nan Zhi fell down a hill. She rolled downwards before she hit her head on a tree and fell unconscious not too long after.

When she woke up again, she was laying on an old bed.

However, the bedsheets and blanket were exuding a faint fragrance.

Opening her eyes, Nan Zhi looked around the simple but clean room, before she sat up on the bed with a pounding headache.

“Oh, you’re awake?” A sweet and soft voice rang as a simply-dressed, pretty young lady walked in.

The young girl was probably less than twenty years old, her long black hair tied into a long braid in front of her chest. She had a bright smile on her face, making her look extremely youthful and energetic.

Nan Zhi messaged her temple. “Can I ask where I am?”

“Oh, this is Brother Ah Dai’s house.”

Ah Dai?

Nan Zhi furrowed her eyebrows in confusion.

“Brother Ah Dai is the nicest older brothers we have here. He knows how to do everything. He’s our village’s doctor, our carpenter, our hunter… Brother Ah Dai can do everything. He even knows medicine! He was the one who found you when he was looking for drugs in the mountains. You were unconscious, so he brought you back.”

Nan Zhi lifted her blanket, wanting to get off the bed.

The girl hurriedly brought the medicine she brewed in front of Nan Zhi. “Sister, you’re really pretty! Your forehead is injured, and Brother Ah Dai said that if you take your medicine on time, there probably won’t be any scars left.”

Nan Zhi stared at the bowl of black liquid the young lady brought to her. She bit her lip, “It looks really bitter.”

The young lady took out a candy from her pocket. “This is from my precious collection. Brother Ah Dai said to give it to you, so here I am to give it to you.”

She could tell that the young lady really cherished this candy. She did not know how many times the young lady had touched the candy, the color of its wrapper slightly faded.

Nan Zhi shook her head. “You can keep the candy to yourself, I’m not scared of bitterness.”

After taking the medicine, Nan Zhi still felt weak all over. She lay on the bed and fell asleep once more. When she woke up again, it was because of a fragrant smell.

Nan Zhi sniffled, rubbing her still aching head as she got off the bed.

Following the fragrance, Nan Zhi walked towards the kitchen.

The kitchen used a clay oven, with a large wok placed over the clay oven. Chicken soup was boiling in the wok.

Nan Zhi glanced around the kitchen, having noted that the fire was still burning but there was noone present, especially not the person called Ah Dai.

Ah Dai could be counted as her savior. Before she left, she definitely have to thank him in person.

Just as Nan Zhi was planning to go out to look for Ah Dai, footsteps rang behind her.

Nan Zhi looked on in reflex.

A tall figure suddenly appeared at the door, blocking all of the light from the outside.
