After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 1701: Chapter 1705: Otherwise, I Won’t Listen to You

Seeing the clear path in the forest, he immediately turned and ran towards the off-road vehicle driven by Xiao Jie.

”Xiao Jie, Cheang Xiao, follow me into the forest. The rest of you, drive around.”

The forest was difficult to navigate, and ordinary cars couldn’t move forward at all.

Everyone acted swiftly. Leng Zimo drove the car into the forest while the other subordinates continued driving around.

...

...

The further they went, the harder the path became. Jiao Yang’s driving speed slowed down more and more, and eventually, it became impossible to drive forward.

”How much further? I can’t drive any longer!” he said helplessly, stopping the car.

”Open the storage box, you’ll find a small black box inside. Take out what’s inside.”

Jiao Yang followed the instructions, and indeed, upon opening the storage box, he found a small black box. Inside, there was a small syringe with a bit of liquid.

”Now, take out the syringe and inject it into yourself.”

”Unless you release Xiao Bei first, I won’t comply,” Jiao Yang said in a deep voice.

The darkness on the phone screen suddenly disappeared, and bright light appeared. In the beam of light, a girl was taped to a tree with black tape, her mouth sealed.

That girl was Mo Bei, who had regained consciousness from her coma.

”Now, lift your head. Do you see the light? Walk over, and you’ll see her!” Luo Ke said with a smile.

”No... don’t...” Mo Bei struggled to enunciate, her voice muffled due to the tape over her mouth.

Jiao Yang lifted his head and indeed saw a faint light in the forest ahead. He hurriedly pushed open the car door, jumped out, and ran rapidly towards the light. Noticing a branch on the ground, he bent down to grab it tightly in his hand.

In the depths of the forest.

Luo Ke laughed, placing the phone in front of Mo Bei, then lifted a hand to tear the tape from her mouth, ”Your man is very brave!”

As soon as her mouth was free, Mo Bei shouted into the phone, ”Jiao Yang, don’t come over, leave, just go!”

”Usually, at times like these, the more you walk towards him, the less likely he is to leave,” Luo Ke stood up with a smile, resealed her mouth with tape, and turned to disappear into the forest.

”Xiao Bei, don’t be afraid. I’ll be right there.” Hearing Mo Bei’s voice, Jiao Yang immediately shouted into the phone, reassuringly quickening his pace by a few steps.

The screen clearly showed his face.

His face was drenched in sweat, long hair matted with perspiration, clinging to his face, fully revealing his enchanting features.

Watching the image of Jiao Yang, Mo Bei’s heart felt as if it was being cut.

Is he an idiot? This is obviously a trap, yet he still wants to come?

Her ears caught the sound of footsteps, and Mo Bei instinctively turned her gaze.

In the dim forest, a figure bounded closer. Though unable to clearly see his face, she recognized him as Jiao Yang.

Watching Jiao Yang walk into the light, she watched his rushing figure, something within her heart suddenly melting away.

”Xiao Bei!”

Jiao Yang also saw her, immediately picking up speed, dragging the branch as he rushed to her side.

With a swift glance left and right, he wasted no time, throwing away the phone and branch in his hand, quickly squatting down to untie the ropes.

In the forest, Luo Ke slowly aimed the gun at Jiao Yang’s back and pulled the trigger.

What shot out from the gun wasn’t a bullet, but a tranquilizer.
