Honey, you didn’t really drugged me, did you?

Chapter 84: Miss 79, I’m taking this seriously.

CPR!

The number one first-aid manual for modern humans, a designated method, it must be right.

At this moment, Chen Jie rubbed his hands nervously and aimed at the targeted area.

Press!

At this time, the young girl Zhao Ya became more puzzled, what exactly was he doing?

But in the next moment, suddenly, she felt her chest being pressed, that sudden numbness shocked her into opening her eyes widely.

Yet, something even more terrifying happened, she saw a face with a scar pressing down, kissing her lips decisively and firmly, and even blowing air!

Wuu wuu wuu…

The girl’s eyes were full of shock and fear. A commandery princess such as herself, when had she ever been treated in such a way?

She was completely baffled.

This scar-faced man who kidnapped her, although a bit domineering, never seemed to do such a lowly thing before; what’s going on today?

Showing his true colors?

Hm?!!

At this moment, Chen Jie was also dumbfounded.

Was the person revived just by pressing once and giving mouth-to-mouth resuscitation?

This… is a proper medical miracle!

Their eyes met in silence that was louder than words. Chen Jie’s hands were still on the chest area, and seemingly unintentionally, he gave it an extra rub~

Mm!

The girl panicked, a mix of embarrassment, grievance, and fear suddenly erupted, and tears streamed out of her sparkling eyes.

Seeing the girl crying, Chen Jie felt a bit awkward, and at this time, he lifted his hands and his mouth also left that warm place.

At that moment, the girl couldn’t hold back any longer and burst into tears.

Chen Jie was startled; he couldn’t let her cry at this moment, so he reached out to cover the girl’s mouth.

He thought he had covered it, but unexpectedly, the girl bit down hard on the flesh between Chen Jie’s thumb and forefinger.

Her teeth must be quite sharp to bite through the skin of a martial artist at the Skin Buff Realm; she drew blood from Chen Jie instantly.

“Let me go!”

Chen Jie said, feeling the pain and anger.

But the girl paid him no heed, as though determined to bite the piece of flesh off before she could feel relieved.

Furious in his heart, Chen Jie placed his left hand on the correct location for chest compressions!

“Mm!”

The girl felt pain and glared at Chen Jie bitterly but did not release her bite.

Jie Wenyan said, “If you don’t let go, I might have to squeeze!”

“Hmm hmm hmm…”

The girl’s breathing became heavier, and tears fell drop by drop from her pitiful eyes, but she still refused to let go.

Chen Jie then said to her, “Let’s both take a step back, you let go, I’ll remove my hand, shall we shake hands and make peace?”

The girl thought for a moment, then slowly released her bite.

Chen Jie also removed his hand from the previous position.

It seemed as though they had reached some sort of equilibrium.

Both looking at each other.

Chen Jie looked down at his bleeding hand, gently blew on it, and said, “Are you a dog or what, biting so fiercely, this will leave a scar!”

The girl coldly responded, “What does it matter with another scar on you? You already have scars on your face!”

Chen Jie, while wiping his wound, asked, “Why were you pretending to be dead?”

The girl replied, “I wasn’t pretending to be dead, I just fell asleep. Who would have thought you turned out to be a rapist, shame on you!”

“Eh? I was saving you!” Chen Jie emphasized.

“Your family saves people like that?!” The girl’s voice was angry and full of humiliation.

“It’s amazing how people in Jianghu still call you Hero Ni for your selfless acts. Yet, you sneak around doing worse things than a rapist!”

“I… Fine, I won’t argue with you. Eat, and after you’re done, get back in the sack!”

“Ah~”

The girl gasped in surprise, her expression softened, and she said, “Hero Ni, I won’t call you a villain anymore, just take me out of here, please. It’s dark and smelly here, it’s terrifying for a girl to stay here, I beg you to take me out!”

“I haven’t seen the sun for several days!” the girl pleaded.

She didn’t know if she had been paralyzed by Ni Wenjun using an acupoint technique or by some Soft Muscle Powder. She was so powerless; otherwise, how could this little sack hold her?

The girl pleaded, but Chen Jie knew that letting her out now was tantamount to seeking death!

Outside was chaos; the whole Xiantao Town was searching for Ni Wenjun. At this time, if this girl were to be seen by others…

Although he was unsure of her identity.

But Chen Jie didn’t need to guess to know that she was definitely no ordinary person, and even the big fuss everyone was making was possibly to find her. If he acted rashly and let her go, that would be sheer idiocy.

“No way, stay put, hurry up and eat, I have things to do,” he told the girl.

The girl frowned and said in response, “Why are you like this? I just want to go out and get some sun, I’m not asking you for much, do you have to refuse me like this?”

Chen Jie replied, “A no is a no.”

“Then, I need to use the bathroom!”

“Mhmm, go ahead,” Chen Jie gestured towards a corner not far away.

The girl, now furious, exclaimed, “I’m supposed to be tied up here later, and you want me to stay with filth?”

Chen Jie laughed and said, “It’s your own waste, no need to be so disgusted with it!”

“You…”

The girl was livid; something felt off. Although this man bore the face of Ni Manzi, he felt completely different.

Ni Manzi, despite his skilled Kung Fu, was not articulate; this Ni Manzi, however, had quite a sharp tongue.

Moreover, he’s despicable, lewd, and shameless!

Recalling the humiliating scene that had just occurred, the girl wished she could skin this Ni Manzi alive and swallow him whole, never before had Commandery Princess suffered such indignity since she was a child!

“Hey, I need to relieve myself!”

The girl continued, and Chen Jie said, “Go ahead, I won’t peek!”

“You go out!”

Chen Jie looked at the girl’s embarrassed and annoyed expression and felt helpless.

“Then I’ll stay above the cellar, just be honest and don’t think about running away.”

“Who’s going to run away! Right now I’m so weak I can’t even climb out of the cellar, let alone run.”

Seeing this, Chen Jie stepped up and flew out of the cellar with a lean at the waist, the girl watched Chen Jie’s back as he left, her gaze shifting rapidly. This man couldn’t be Ni Manzi; Ni Manzi didn’t have such clumsy hands and feet.

But he had the same face as Ni Manzi, doesn’t that mean—@@novelbin@@

This is a fake face, Disguise Technique?

No wonder sometimes even laying out Heaven and Earth Net couldn’t capture Ni Manzi; that meant the face on the court’s arrest warrant was a fake.

Such incompetent fools!

On the girl’s face emerged an expression incongruous with her innocence.

But now the trouble was, she had been subdued by Ni Manzi, how could she escape?

The girl pondered, knowing that the likelihood of running away from Ni Manzi’s grasp was slim, but this man who came today was a lecherous rogue. If she could use that to her advantage, she might be able to escape.

As long as she got away, she would have her father send troops and have this damned Ni Manzi and the lascivious rogue torn to pieces!

Thinking thus, the girl’s gaze gradually sharpened.

Feeling annoyed in her heart, and it was bad luck too, going to Ding County was intended as a leisurely trip, who would have expected Ni Manzi to suddenly rebel. Her own strength was not equal to his and being captured by him, she suffered such humiliation, how infuriating!

“Hey, are you done yet?”

Chen Jie called from above, the girl slightly frowned, noticing the water gourd on the ground, she weakly picked up the gourd and went to the corner, sprinkling a bit of water.

Then she said, “Okay, you can come down now.”

Chen Jie jumped down into the cellar, sniffing the air and glanced at the corner saying, “Water is for drinking, not for sprinkling.”

Upon hearing this, the girl did not retort but instead smiled and said, “You’re not Ni Manzi, are you?”

Chen Jie responded, “Who said that? I am Ni Manzi indeed!”

“Words can deceive me, but your strength cannot. Looking at your martial arts, you have only just broken through the Skin Buff Realm, how can you be Ni Manzi?”

“That face of yours is fake too, right?”

Chen Jie laughed and said, “Who told you that the strong ones are Ni Manzi and the weak ones are not? And who said Ni Manzi is just one person?”

“Hmm?”

The girl narrowed her eyes.

Chen Jie laughed, “Maybe this isn’t a fake face, but that of a twin?”

The girl fell silent, shocked by Chen Jie’s comment that Ni Manzi might not be just one person. Yes, what if Ni Manzi isn’t just one individual?

Wouldn’t that mean there’s a flaw in the court’s capture policy?

However, the girl quickly recovered her train of thought. Right now, all that didn’t matter. What mattered was how she was going to figure out a way to escape from here.

Thinking, the girl said, “Hey, do you know who I am?”

Chen Jie shook his head, “I don’t know.”

“And you’re not curious?”

“Not curious.”

“Then I’ll tell you, I am actually the daughter of Huangzhou Prefecture’s Magistrate, my name is Zhao Ya!”

“Isn’t the Magistrate’s last name Wang?”

“I’m his illegitimate daughter, I follow my mother’s surname!”

Chen Jie looked at her, unsure of what she was playing at, and asked, “What do you want?”

“This is the thing, my father holds me very dear. My mother and he were very much in love, and he abandoned his wife to become an official. He owes me a lot for this, therefore he lets me decide on my own marriage matters. Whoever I take a liking to, he will grant him a good future and present him with a generous dowry.”

“How generous?”

Chen Jie inquired.

“Ten thousand taels of silver, a dwelling in Huangzhou Prefecture City, ten shops, a thousand acres of good farmland, and if you wish to learn martial arts, my Wang Family’s arsenal is at your disposal to study!”

Hearing this, Chen Jie couldn’t help but admit, even he was tempted.

Ten thousand taels of silver, a thousand acres of good farmland, who wouldn’t be moved? And if you wish to learn martial arts, there’s an arsenal full of secret manuals waiting for you, what are you waiting for?

But he knew this was just a sugar-coated shell; to believe it would truly be foolish!

Chen Jie pretended to believe her and said, “Oh, one would indeed strike it rich by marrying you!”

Hearing these words, the girl bashfully said, “How can you speak of yourself in such a manner!”

“Hmm?”

Chen Jie voiced his surprise.

“Why are you surprised, after what you did just now, caressing and kissing, haven’t I become your woman?”

Chen Jie was taken aback.

According to the traditional mores of the time, a woman who was even slightly indiscreet would be considered dishonored, meaning this woman truly could not marry anyone else. But did that apply to girls from Jianghu?

Chen Jie looked at her with confusion.

The girl bashfully lowered her head, her allure and charm radiating.

Even though Chen Jie knew she was deceiving him, he couldn’t help but feel a stir in his heart.

“So you’re saying, you want to marry me?”

Chen Jie looked at the girl.

The girl said, “Naturally, from that moment earlier, I became your woman. My husband, think about it, what future could you have with Ni Manzi? Living on the run, hounded at every turn, your life hanging by a thread day and night, why not take me back to Huangzhou Prefecture instead? By then you would be a son-in-law of high standing, with a beautiful wife and wealth aplenty, enjoying endless blessings.”

“Why live a life of constant danger with a rebel?”

The girl coaxed him persuasively.

She even painted the picture in detail for Chen Jie, enough to sway someone less clear-headed.

But Chen Jie didn’t believe her, or rather, anyone with a bit of societal experience wouldn’t believe her.

Chen Jie, however, decided to tease her a little: “Is that so? Since you say you are my woman, then I won’t be polite anymore.”

“Come, my wife, attend to your husband.”

Chen Jie beckoned her with a hooked finger.
