The door had been closed at some point, and what's worse, it wouldn't open.
Qin Miaomiao's heart sank. It's over, it's over. This feels like a setup for locked-room imprisonment. Judging from their earlier fight, she was no match for him. Was she really going to meet her end here today?
She had already sent an alert to Lu Qing. He's so clever; he should have noticed something was wrong by now, right?
Lu Qing, if you don't come soon, your wife is about to be devoured by someone!
"Excuse me, sir."
"Ou bei Yao."
"What?"
"My name."
"Alright, Mr. Ou. How about we make a deal? I can drop by occasionally to accompany your little brother, but staying with him all the time? That's impossible. I have my own life too. As for compensation, there's no need for that. What do you think?"
Qin Miaomiao felt that she had already expressed her sincerity with these words.
"Not enough."
"What?"
"I need you to stay by Xiao Chen's side at all times until he fully recovers."
