Chapter 74: Kidnapped (1/2)

Boss Qing walked over, hips swaying seductively, then lifted her leg and gave Tang Doudou who had collapsed unconscious onto the floor a kick. When Tang Doudou didn’t react, she bent down to pinch Tang Doudou’s pink cheeks and laughed sweetly. “This pleasant little appearance even makes me feel pity for you. No wonder that person couldn’t stop thinking about you.”

It was unknown who exactly she was talking about. All that could be seen was that after she finished speaking, she got up and commanded the guard hidden in the darkness, “Bring him back.”

“Understood!”

When Tang Doudou woke up, her eyes opened to a mass of pitch-black darkness. The surroundings were damp and there was a revolting smell of mold mixed with rot. She reflexively tried to cover her nose but discovered that her hands were tied behind her back and she couldn’t move at all.

What the f*ck!? What kind of situation is this?

She looked around again but it was so dark she couldn’t see anything. She exhaled and struggled a bit before she gave up. Her hands and legs were tied up very tightly and behind her was a cold rock wall. Below her feet there seemed to be something like rice straw or hay that was uncomfortably moist.

From the darkness came the continuous sounds of chittering rats. From the sounds of it, it seemed like there were a lot of rats. Tang Doudou shivered as she thought about it. She once heard that when rats didn’t have anything to eat, they would even eat human flesh…

Could it be that someone kidnapped her to feed the rats!?

Wuuwuu, please don’t ah. That’s way too terrifying.

Tang Doudou was scared half to death by her own thoughts. Straining her throat, she started shouting, “Hey, is there anyone here!? Is there anyone here ah!?”

Her voice transmitted very far in the darkness and there was even a slight echo bouncing back. It seemed that this was a very spacious and empty area.

“It’s a fire! Help, it’s murder!”

“Hey!”

Tang Doudou yelled for half the day, but didn’t even see a trace of a ghost. It was seriously depressing ah. And she didn’t even know which moral-less bastard it was that kidnapped her and brought her to this damned place. There’s no need to talk about how this place was creepy to the point birds couldn’t even shit since there was not even a single bird feather lying around!

Which hallowed deities were Boss Qing and the Pavilion Master she had talked about? She had only fainted after talking with Boss Qing and smelling that strange fragrance, so her current situation must be linked to those two.

She didn’t even know how she provoked them. However, after coming here, she always ended up getting shot at even when lying down. Tang Doudou felt that after such a long time, she should have gotten used to it.

The most depressing part was the fact that the antique lamp she finally managed to obtain ended up lost somewhere again. It’s seriously fudging bad luck.

Wonder if someone would come to save her? After all, she went missing in Rutaceae Pavilion. She didn’t harbor any extravagant hope for Baili Yu, but Bai Feiyun would definitely come to save her. It was just a question of time…

However, the most troublesome matter at present was the fact that her great auntie was currently overflowing. She had only stuffed a few layers of cloth in there before she headed out and it had already been long soaked through. Right now, it felt sticky and especially uncomfortable.

After thinking about random things for a while, Tang Doudou decided that she couldn’t sit and wait for death, nor could she hope for someone to save her. The fact that Boss Qing dared to brazenly make her move in Rutaceae Pavilion while Baili Yu was still there, meant that the person behind her wasn’t afraid of Baili Yu. This was actually her first time encountering someone that wasn’t afraid of Baili Yu, so she couldn’t help but be curious about this person’s identity. Who could he be?

“Urgh, what is this place?”

A pained groan suddenly came from the darkness along with a familiar voice. Tang Doudou froze for a moment, then asked in surprise, “Lou Qingyun? Why are you here too?”

Lou Qingyun was obviously also shocked to hear her voice. “Alliance Head Li? Is that you?”

“It’s me.”

“Where is this? Wasn’t I drinking wine with Lady Yun Yan? How did I end up here?’ From the way Lou Qingyun was continuously sucking in cold air, his situation seemed even worse than hers. It seems he was injured.

However, Tang Doudou could only shrug to express her lack of answers to his question. “Who knows what happened to you?”

In the dark, Lou Qingyun could not see her movements but could still tell from her tone that she didn’t know what this place was.

After being silent for a long time, Lou Qingyun opened his mouth again to ask, “Wasn’t Alliance Head Li with Baili gongzi? Where is Baili gongzi now?”

“Who freaking knows?” replied Tang Doudou, annoyed. Did this guy’s brain get messed up from a fall or something? If she really was with Baili Yu, how could she have been dragged to this goddamned place?

After Lou Qingyun asked, he also realized that this was a dumb question and gave a couple dry coughs. Then, he changed the topic. “I wonder who it was that kidnapped us? And what’s their goal…”

“Surnamed Lou, who is that Boss Qing? Before I fainted, she said that the Pavilion Master invited me. I didn’t recognize any pavilion masters so I didn’t go. However, unexpectedly, before I even took a few steps, I passed out.” Lou Qingyun was very familiar with Rutaceae Pavilion so perhaps he knew who the Pavilion Master was.

“Pavilion Master?” As expected, after Lou Qingyun heard this, he started mulling over it. Only after a good while did he reply with some confusion, “If it’s the Pavilion Master of Rutaceae Pavilion, Alliance Head Li shouldn’t be here!?”

The meaning within these words were worthy of being analyzed!

“However, Boss Qing is the person in charge of Rutaceae Pavilion. The Pavilion Master she’s talking about can only be himT/N.” Lou Qingyun muttered as if he was talking to himself.

Tang Doudou then asked, “You know that person?”

“I don’t.”
