Noticing the spot on her hand which had been pricked by the needle, Long Tianze asked, “You got an injection?”

“I caught a cold so I was put on the drip.”

Shifting his gaze towards her wrist, Long Tianze again noticed a bruise and quickly rolled up her sleeves to have a clearer look. His face immediately stiffened at the sight of the bruise and spot on her hands.

“What’s… this? Is he abusing you?”

Mo Li was at a loss for words, too afraid to speak.

“Speak up! Tell me the truth! What happened?” exclaimed the flabbergasted Long Tianze.

“His fiancé, Bai Ranran, has been diagnosed with a disease where her body is not capable of renewing and producing blood on its own…”

Stunned at what he had just heard, Long Tianze asked, “That damned jerk is drawing your blood to keep Bai Ranran alive?”

“Yes… Tianze, please keep this from everyone else, including my family.”

Long Tianze was almost too furious for words. He exclaimed, “When did this begin? Have you been hiding it from me for a long time!?”

“It had been going on for quite some time, indeed. I didn’t dare to tell you about it. I’ve also tried escaping many times before, but to no avail. He would manage to get his hands on me and nab me back, every single time. He even threatened to kill my family should I try to escape again…” Lowering her voice, Mo Li continued, almost whispering, “Tianze, if I ever manage to escape successfully, my family…”

“Where are you going to run to?”

“I don’t know.”

“You silly girl, I reckon you wouldn’t have planned to tell me about this if it hadn’t been for the fact that I discovered it myself,” said Long Tianze, who was filled with worry.

“How about I discuss this with Qingyan and arrange for you to put up at their house in the future? Ye Xiaotian wouldn’t have the guts to step foot onto Qingyan’s territory. If you’d still like to flee far, far away, then we can get him to arrange for that, after you’ve lived with them for some time. It would be safer that way. I’m afraid you will be caught again if you choose to escape alone.”

Mo Li nodded in agreement, and said, “Please talk to him about it.”

Long Tianze gave Jin Qingyan a call at that instant and asked where he was. Upon hearing that Jin Qingyan was at home, Long Tianze informed him that he would be making his way there and ended the call before Jin Qingyan could even react.

He then left hand in hand with Mo Li and drove towards Jin Qingyan’s villa.

Puzzled at the sight of Jin Qingyan lying in bed in his pajamas, Long Tianze asked, “Why aren’t you at the office today?”

“Um… I felt like taking a day off.”

Long Tianze rolled his eyes and advised earnestly, “I suppose you’ve had a long battle in bed last night, haven’t you? You wouldn’t have taken a day off otherwise. Mr. Jin, you should take good care of your body.”

“Get lost. What’s up? Spit it, looking at you being all anxious, it doesn’t seem like you came all the way here just to have an idle chat with me,” Jin Qingyan hissed at the sarcastic remark.

“Of course I didn’t, I’m really busy too myself.”

“Then get straight to the point.”
