ABRWF Chapter 416.1

Jiang Nanshu’s attention immediately shifted from the snow rose to the source of the sound.

The villa was large, but the sound was very faint, almost inaudible unless you were extremely quiet. Fortunately, the area was quiet.

Jiang Nanshu instantly knew where the location was. She had studied the entire house when she lived here before. There was a basement under the house, which was usually used to store miscellaneous items.

Jiang Nanshu walked straight here. Unlike the villa on the hillside, the basement here could be opened with a password. Jiang Nanshu tried the original password once—Lu Qingyan’s birthday—but it was wrong.

She tried her birthday again, but it was still wrong. She lost several times, and just when she was about to lock in the answer, Jiang Nanshu suddenly remembered the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet at which Lu Qingyan confessed to her.

0925.

The basement door opened.

A pungent smell wafted out.

Jiang Nanshu immediately spotted Chu Muxi lying prostrate on the floor. Her hair was disheveled, and her expression was obscured in the darkness.

Jiang Nanshu turned on the nearby light, instantly illuminating the room.

Chu Muxi seemed unaccustomed to the light, so she raised her hand to shield her eyes. The chains jingled because of her movement.

Once her eyes adjusted, she looked at Jiang Nanshu.

Jiang Nanshu, dressed in a glamorous manner, seemed to be from a completely different world from her.

It made her seem particularly pathetic.

Her eyes slowly reddened, tears streaming down her face.

“You’re here, you’ve finally come, Jiang Nanshu, you’ve finally come… Waaah!”

Jiang Nanshu looked at her calmly: “Chu Mu—”

Before she could even utter the name, Chu Muxi in front of her went berserk, screaming and tearing at her hair.

“I’m not Chu Muxi, my name is Tao Tao, I’m the time traveler Tao Tao! I want to go back! Let me go back! System, let me go home! I don’t want to experience this anymore…”

Jiang Nanshu looked at the ‘madwoman’ in front of her.

She had already broken down mentally. Because she had never seen the sun for many years, her face was pale and terrifying, her hair was messy, and she smelled terrible.

“Chu…”

Jiang Nanshu paused, then changed her words: “Tao Tao.”

Tao Tao heard someone call her name and burst into tears and laughter. She had finally been rescued.

For five whole years, she had been trapped here.

“He’s a devil, he’s a madman. I shouldn’t have liked him. I regret it…”

Jiang Nanshu frowned as she looked at her, sensing that something was very wrong with the person named Tao Tao at that moment.

She stepped forward to check on her and asked, “Does your mother know you’re missing?”

Tao Tao instantly thought of Chu Xin. She had tried to ask for help, but how could Chu Xin possibly handle Lu Qingyan?

The entire Chu family was no match for Lu Qingyan.

“So what if she knows? What can she do? She’s useless, haha. If it were the Jiang family, they might be able to rescue me, but Chu Muxi’s family background is just too weak. It doesn’t give me any satisfaction at all.”

Tao Tao slowly sat up, looking at Jiang Nanshu with pleading eyes: “Can you let me out? I just want to get out. I won’t do anything, I won’t say anything, I swear.”

Jiang Nanshu looked at her quietly. Tao Tao’s eyes were sincere; it was clear that she had been driven crazy by torture.

Jiang Nanshu’s gaze fell on the chain, which had scabbed over from the force she had been pulling on.
