Chapter 508: Mo Jingshen Mouthed Two Words at Her: “Don’t Move.”
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Mo Jingshen completely understood their thought process and did not turn on the car locks. From outside, with two ‘peng’ noises, the kidnappers fired at the center of the locks.
Even if the doors had been locked, they would similarly be opened.
She heard the gunshot noises, and the doors that wouldn’t be affected by typical bullets were already smoking from the bullet. Ji Nuan subconsciously wanted to sit up. At this moment, Mo Jingshen sent her another look and used his gaze to warn her not to move.
The kidnappers had guns while they were unarmed. In such a situation, they could either stall for time or be killed on the spot and have their cars taken.
As Ji Nuan was confused about Mo Jingshen’s plans, she heard his low, cold voice: “These two men have injuries on their arms and their legs. They can’t keep driving. They need someone to drive to support their escape. This is an opportunity. Listen to me, don’t move carelessly.”
Before Ji Nuan could react, the backseat doors were abruptly opened. One of the kidnappers directly jumped into the car and raised the gun toward Mo Jingshen’s head. The other kidnapper similarly pointed his gun at him from outside: “If you wish to keep your life, find a path to drive us away right now!”
As expected, it was just as Mo Jingshen had spoken.
At the sight of the cold barrel against Mo Jingshen’s head, the frightening fear she had experienced in Cambodia three years ago filled her heart. Ji Nuan raised her hand to cover her mouth and tried her best to keep quiet. However, the car was only so big. There was no way they wouldn’t notice someone kneeling right next to the driver’s seat.
The two kidnappers coldly scanned for a glance before pressing their guns even closer to Mo Jingshen’s head.
Mo Jingshen’s expression was cold and indifferent without revealing many emotions. He raised both his arms to indicate his agreement.
The two kidnappers saw that he did not resist and a.s.sumed that he was afraid. As the police cars were already approaching, they exchanged glances and climbed in the car fully. The car doors were directly shut. One of the men kept his barrel against the back of Mo Jingshen’s head, while the other raised it toward Ji Nuan.
Faced with the gun barrel, Ji Nuan turned to see Mo Jingshen mouth two words at her: “Don’t move.”
These kidnappers had been chased by the police through the city and were covered in wounds. The stench of blood was heavy on them, and it was clear that they wouldn’t hesitate to kill both of them in a fit of anger to continue driving themselves. Rather than leaving their fates in someone else’s hands, it would be safer to drive themselves. Right now, Mo Jingshen was gambling on their trust and their unfamiliarity in Hai City. He was gambling that they needed someone to drive them to escape.
Ji Nuan understood that this was a serious situation. She faced the black gun barrel and listened as they demanded Mo Jingshen to drive quickly. She then noticed that the gunlocks had been undone. If they stalled for time any further, before the police cars arrived, they would definitely be killed on the spot!
Mo Jingshen expressionless started the car ignition.
From behind, the two kidnappers spoke: “This car drives very quickly. Thank G.o.d we only burst two of the tires at the back. The speed should only be slightly slower. If he keeps driving quickly, we should be able to avoid those police cars.”
As they spoke, the kidnapper with a gun pressed against Mo Jingshen’s head abruptly demanded coldly: “Quickly drive! Don’t waste time!”
At the same time, he pressed the gun handle painfully against Mo Jingshen’s shoulder as a threat.
The familiar sight caused Ji Nuan’s hands and feet to turn cold. She abruptly raised her eyes to say: “Doesn’t he need both his arms and shoulders to control the steering wheel? How do you expect him to drive if you keep pressing on him like that?!”
The two men instantly s.h.i.+fted their attention to Ji Nuan, who appeared completely helpless.
“Aiyo, the little chick is quite hot-tempered!”
Mo Jingshen did not even react to the pressure of the gun. However, the moment Ji Nuan drew the two men’s attention, his expression turned cold as he threw her a warning glance.
“Quickly drive!” The kidnappers heard the approached of the police cars. Although this car was able to drive quickly, as they drove down the highway, it intentionally avoided the vegetable market ahead and turned into a small road by the side. The small road was uneven and b.u.mpy, igniting their frustration: “If the police cars catch up to us, I’ll first kill your woman before killing you!”
The gun handle landed on his shoulder once more, smas.h.i.+ng down this time.
The car speed gradually stabilized. Mo Jingshen spoke hoa.r.s.ely: “Let her get off at the next intersection. I’ll bring the two of you to escape.”
Ji Nuan swerved her head over to look at him.
The car fell into a temporary, heavy silence.
However, the two kidnappers were hesitant about letting them off. Abruptly, one of them spoke up: “How about we kill him first? I think this woman knows how to drive. Let’s let her drive?”
They noticed that although this man was well-skilled in driving, he had clearly been stalling for time. If he was disobedient, it could land them into trouble.
The cold gun handle was pressed against Mo Jingshen’s head. As the kidnapper was about to make a move, Ji Nuan abruptly shouted: “I don’t know how to drive! Even if you killed him, I can’t drive!”
The kidnapper faltered and turned to her in suspicion. Ji Nuan found a sharp area underneath the seat and made two harsh cuts against her palms. She then brought her blood-covered hands out for them to see and revealed the wound on her neck to them as well: “This is my car. The person driving is the chauffeur I hired. I went out to partic.i.p.ate in an outdoor activity and accidentally received some surface wounds. I was on my way to the hospital to get them treated. If I could drive, would I hire a chauffeur?”
The kidnapper chuckled coldly and abruptly pressed the gun barrel right against her head. “Chauffeur? Whose chauffeur would be that well-dressed? Are you trying to scam a three-year-old?”
“I’m a famous businesswoman in Hai City. My chauffeur follows me to all sorts of big and small events. Of course, he has to be well-dressed. Can’t you see that his clothes don’t have a brand label? Haven’t you heard of high-quality imitation goods? With a few hundred yuan, you’ll be able to buy a pair of s.h.i.+rts and pants that are identical to the branded item. As for that pair of leather shoes, I gifted them to him when I was in a good mood… what’s wrong with that?”
The kidnapper chuckled coldly and s.h.i.+fted the safety lock on the gun. The atmosphere and temperature in the car suddenly fell to an extreme. The kidnapper turned toward the man who had been driving expressionlessly from start to finish: “Driver? This driver of yours sure is good at adapting to situations. He even knew how to avoid our car. From the way he brushed past our car earlier, I can tell that he isn’t a regular driver!”
As they spoke, the gun barrel initially directed at Ji Nuan abruptly s.h.i.+fted toward Mo Jingshen again. It seemed like the two really intended to kill Mo Jingshen and leave her to drive.
Just as they were preparing to move, the composed Mo Jingshen abruptly made a sharp, left turn. The car swerved heavily, and the two kidnappers immediately fell backward. The bullet brushed past Mo Jingshen’s ear and shot out of the window, leaving behind a frightening hole on it.
