Shen Qingwan had been imprisoned in the cabin for a day or two, and she couldn't stand it any longer, no matter how calm she was. Regardless of how Lianyun was doing, whether she would be rescued, and whether she would come to rescue herself, she couldn't put all her hopes on others.
She had to save herself! Her arms were tied behind her back and she couldn't move. The maid hadn't come in yet, so she must be out doing something. Now was the perfect opportunity.
Her sharp eyes swept around the room. The decoration inside was very simple, and there was no sharp object that could cut her rope. When her eyes stopped at the vase on the table, a light bulb suddenly lit up in her mind, as if she had thought of something, and the corners of her lips rose slightly.
Her feet were also tied with ropes, so her movements were not smooth, and she could only rely on her body balance to move towards the table little by little. While moving, she had to observe the movement outside the window, in case the maid suddenly came back and discovered her plan, which would make it difficult for her to escape.
Although it was strenuous, it was not a difficult task if she had the intention in her mind. When she reached the table, she tried to swing her body to hit the vase.
With a "pop", the vase shattered into pieces of sharp fragments.
She was overjoyed, her eyes full of joy and anticipation, but she still kept an eye on the outside, the more careful she had to be at this time. She bent down and sat down, groping for a piece of porcelain of appropriate size, and just as she was about to cut the rope, the door was suddenly pushed open.
Her heart was in suspense, as if she had been caught doing something bad. But she could only calm her fluctuating breathing and try to face the maid's suspicious and scrutinizing eyes calmly.
He concealed the panic and anxiety in his eyes and clenched the porcelain pieces hidden behind his back.
"What are you doing?" Looking at the broken pieces of vase on the ground, she sat on the ground in embarrassment, with an expression of dissatisfaction, "You made such a big noise!"
In the maid's opinion, if this was Shen Qingwan's plan, then she wanted to use her voice to attract people around her. She was too lazy to care about her in the first place, and now she had no intention of investigating further.
Shen Qingwan pretended to be calm and turned her head away, complaining: "Careless."
Despite her explanation, the maid still looked inquiring and doubted what she said.
The more nervous she was, the calmer her face became. She even stared at her coldly with an aggressive tone, "You tied my hands and feet, and it was difficult for me to even drink water. Now you're still rude to me for breaking a cheap vase?"
She thought that she would be very useful to her, and she did not want to suffer this grievance, so she disguised herself as a spoiled and arrogant person.
Hearing this, the maid's doubts were reduced a lot, but her resentment was increasing. However, Qingwan didn't care, "Go out, I don't want to see you."
"You!" The maid seemed to have not expected that she would be so arrogant and rude.
"What? Even though I'm tied up by you, I still have a temper." There was contempt and disdain in her eyes.
The maid wanted to go up and teach her a lesson, but when she thought of something else, she finally suppressed her anger, glared at her fiercely, and slammed the door heavily.
Only after she left did Shen Qingwan secretly breathe a sigh of relief. She moved a little and started cutting the rope. She couldn't see behind her so it was not very smooth and it took her a while to cut it.
He carefully put away the rope and lay down on the windowsill to observe the scene outside the house. It seemed that the maid was no longer guarding outside the house. If he rushed out now, he might be able to escape.
Even if she couldn't succeed, she had to give it a try. Shen Qingwan didn't choose to go out through the main door but climbed out through the window at the side. She hadn't eaten much in the past two days, so her strength had naturally diminished a little, but this didn't prevent her from escaping.
She took a step and prepared to run away. It seemed that no one was following her. She was anxious and just wanted to find the end of the forest as soon as possible. However, before she could take two steps, the maid's angry shout came from behind, "How dare you run away!"
Shen Qingwan frowned, her heart sank, she was discovered after all! But all she could do now was to try to escape as fast as she could, but how could her physical strength compare to that of a person who practiced martial arts for many years
The maid took two steps at a time and grabbed her shoulders, forcing her to stop immediately.
"How dare you run away!"
"Let me go!" She tried hard to break free from her restraints, but she couldn't. Her voice was filled with anger and anxiety, "What on earth do you want to do with me?" She was locked in the cabin for two days but there was no movement at all.
Regardless of what she said, the maid just handcuffed her hands behind her back and dragged her straight towards the cabin.
But at this moment, the bamboo leaves in the forest moved slightly. The movement was not as gentle as the breeze, but instead revealed a sharp force.
Shen Qingwan also noticed that something was wrong, and looked around. The maid was knowledgeable about martial arts, so the master naturally felt something was unusual. She wanted to speed up her pace to the cabin, but suddenly a person in white appeared in front of her.
The white clothes as fine as snow fluttered slightly. The man turned his head and raised the corner of his mouth towards Shen Qingwan behind the maid, very gently. For a moment, all the colors in the world seemed to lose their color.
"Long time no see." His voice was also very pleasant, which made Shen Qingwan stunned for a moment. Only then did she realize who he was.
I was delighted to find that it was the mysterious man. I didn't have time to think about why he was here, but I felt relieved immediately.
"Who are you?" The maid also reacted and stared at the man in front of her. He had a gentle temperament, but it made her feel that he was more extraordinary.
Quan ignored the maid and kept his eyes on Shen Qingwan. Seeing that her face was a little pale and her lips were dry, she pursed her lips slightly and her eyes dimmed.
He didn't even give her time to react. He had already made his move before the maid could see clearly. The maid suddenly stretched out her hand, but suddenly found that Shen Qingwan behind her was gone.
When she looked up, she saw the man holding her in his arms, smiling at her in an absolutely possessive manner. Shen Qingwan hadn't reacted yet, and she felt dizzy when she was already beside him.
"I won't play with you today." He said this to the maid. She was stunned for a moment, but it was enough for him.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Quan hugged Shen Qingwan's slender body and jumped up. When she regained consciousness, he landed. What happened just now seemed like a dream, and it was so easy to be rescued!
She looked up in surprise at the smiling man in front of her, her heart filled with gratitude, as this was not the first time she had received his help.
"Thank you, Mr. Quan, for saving me." Unfortunately, she didn't know his identity, she only knew that his name was Quan.
A gentle smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth. He found her serious expression funny and asked, "How do you thank me?"
