Chapter 131 I Sold You
Seeing that Li Xiaonuan couldn't recover for a long time, the little girl pulled the rag out of her mouth. The people just stood there, watching curiously as Li Xiaonuan's mouth remained wide open, unable to close it for a long time.
The hooded figure chuckled. Only then did Li Xiaonuan realize that the person in the grey cloak and hood was a woman. Once the numbness in her limbs subsided, Li Xiaonuan endured the excruciating pain and moved her hands and feet.
She struggled to lift her hand and close her mouth, the throbbing pain in her head bringing tears to her eyes. Li Xiaonuan felt that besides the pain, her brain was so sore that she couldn't think straight.
Ni Chang pulled aside the little girl who had been gloating and watching the show in front of Li Xiaonuan, squatted down, and asked her with a cold smile, "How about it? Not bad treatment, right? I learned this from the mothers in our building. It's guaranteed to make people obedient."
Li Xiaonuan turned her head away, not wanting to see Ni Chang's repulsive face.
Ni Chang didn't care. She reached out and grabbed Li Xiaonuan's hair, forcing Li Xiaonuan to look at her. She said sarcastically, "You bitch, weren't you so eager to fight me for Young Master Qi before? Why are you silent now?"
Li Xiaonuan rolled her eyes at Ni Chang, then looked at the hooded woman who remained hidden in the shadows behind her. The woman noticed Li Xiaonuan's gaze, unconsciously took a small step back, and reached out to adjust her hood.
Li Xiaonuan stopped looking at the hooded woman. She moved her chin and found that it could move, and saliva began to secrete from her mouth. She swallowed and tried to speak: "Ahem, what do you want?"
The voice was incredibly hoarse, so faint and ethereal it seemed to come from another world.
Everyone present, except for Li Xiaonuan, got goosebumps. The three men standing next to the hooded woman couldn't help but spit on the ground and mutter, "This is really weird."
The hooded woman stepped back further, trying to let the three men conceal her figure.
While the people were spreading out, Li Xiaonuan struggled to sit up from the ground. The hand that was holding Li Xiaonuan's hair was also pulled forward by her, and her whole body was almost pressed against Li Xiaonuan's body.
Startled, Ni Chang quickly released her grip on Li Xiaonuan's hair, pulling her hand back hastily. Li Xiaonuan, seeing her reaction, scoffed, "With such little courage, you dared to kidnap me? How about it, now that you're someone else's lackey, you feel quite confident, huh?"
This time, Li Xiaonuan's voice wasn't as eerie. But it still didn't sound very pleasant.
Ni Chang swallowed hard and pulled the maid beside her to her feet. The maid only snapped out of her daze when Ni Chang pulled her. She cried out, "It's terrifying! It's absolutely terrifying! Miss, why does this person's voice sound like a dead person's?"
Li Xiaonuan laughed even harder, looking at the pale-faced master and servant in front of her, and said sarcastically, "So you can still hear the voices of the dead? Well, have those dead people come to chat with you at night?"
Upon hearing this, the little girl quickly spat on the ground, saying with dissatisfaction, "Pah! You're the one who heard a dead person's voice! Your voice sounds so much like a dead person's. Even if a dead person wanted to chat with someone at night, they would choose you."
Li Xiaonuan nodded with difficulty and said, "That's true, Dead Man Loves to chat with me. Actually, quite a few people around you are talking to me too. Do you want to listen to what they're saying?"
Li Xiaonuan's words were like a drop of water falling into a boiling oil pan, scaring everyone into scattering in all directions.
The hooded woman gripped a man tightly beside her and shouted, "Don't fall for her tricks! She's just a mortal, trying to deceive you. If she had that kind of power, we wouldn't have captured her, would we?" Her voice trembled slightly.
Looking at the small chaos she had created, Li Xiaonuan felt quite satisfied. Her mind was working again. Judging from their actions, they had come prepared. If she wanted to escape unscathed, she would have to think of a plan.
"Speak up, what do you want? You didn't just kidnap me to see me in such a sorry state, did you? What's that interesting? Tell me what you're going to do with me, so I can die knowing the truth. Otherwise, I might actually come to chat with you guys tonight." Li Xiaonuan felt that there were some things she didn't know about this.
Having finally calmed down, Ni Chang and her servant embraced once more. Ni Chang said defiantly, "Do you even need to ask what we want to do? Of course, we want to sell you. Once you become like me, let's see if Young Master Qi will even give you a second glance."
The young girl chirped back, "Yes, I'll sell you. I'll sell you to a brothel so you can serve customers every day, lots and lots of customers."
As soon as the little girl finished speaking, the men behind her and her servants let out lewd laughter. One of the men, holding a torch, stepped forward, carefully examined Li Xiaonuan, and said:
"I think this young wench is quite pretty; it's a shame to sell her to a brothel. How about I have some fun with her before selling her off?"
The other man, who was being held by the hooded woman, broke free of her grasp, stepped forward, glanced at her, and said, "I need to let her wash and dress up first, otherwise, looking like this, I really can't bring myself to kiss her."
The other man, who hadn't uttered a sound since entering, shoved Ni Chang and her servant aside and looked at Li Xiaonuan with a smug grin, saying, "I love this kind of young lady. How about we let me go first? After I'm done, she can get ready and serve us?"
The other two men shoved the man who had just made the boastful statement aside, turned to the hooded woman, and asked, "Won't buying this woman cause us a lot of trouble? Our building is just a small business; we can't afford to offend any big shots."
The hooded woman pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "It's alright. She's just an ordinary farm girl with no powerful backing. Besides, with all the training methods you have in your building, do you think she'd run away and sue you?"
Ni Chang's maidservant said defiantly, "That's right, have you forgotten Lin'er? She's still the legitimate daughter of a wealthy family. And now she's still properly entertaining customers in the brothel."
Ni Chang glared at the little girl and scolded her, "Shut up! What nonsense are you spouting? What right do you have to say such things?"
The little girl stuck out her tongue, turned to look at the hooded woman, and said, "Miss, what do you think we should do with this person? She's already seen me and Miss. How about we blind her and give her some kind of mute potion?"
The hooded woman snorted and said, "Stop being so clever. If you ask me, the most important thing is to get her away as soon as possible. Don't say I didn't warn you, her family members are very troublesome. If they really find this place, even a god can't save you."
Li Xiaonuan listened quietly to their conversation, trying her best to maintain a calm demeanor. But inside, she was in turmoil, feeling utterly helpless. In her current state, there was no way for her to escape. Yet, she felt unwilling to die like this.
At this moment, Li Xiaonuan desperately wished that a chivalrous hero would descend from the sky and, with a few dashing moves, utterly defeat the men in front of her. Afterward, she would tie up the women. Together, they would hand them over to the authorities.
But wishes are just wishes, forever out of reach. Before Li Xiaonuan could even make a wish, the hooded woman shouted, "Take her with you quickly and get out of the city before the gates close. Immediately, right now!"
