Chapter 281 The Beauty and the Boss's Love and Career (34 words)
Warm sunlight filtered through the sheer curtains, gently bathing the bedroom in its glow.
Every corner was bathed in a warm golden glow.
The room was perfectly furnished.
On this artistic carpet, the exquisite textures and soft colors complement each other, showcasing the owner's exceptional taste.
Before the window, a sleek desk stands quietly, upon which sits a handcrafted crystal vase shaped like a fox.
Several vibrant jasmine flowers were arranged in the vase.
The petals still held morning dewdrops, shimmering with iridescent light under the sunlight.
There's a hidden secret in the drawer on the side of the desk.
With a gentle touch of the mechanism, one can discover a neat array of cutting-edge weapons that are extinct on the market and rare even in the military.
The surfaces of these weapons have been specially treated, giving them a cool, ethereal sheen that contrasts sharply with the warm and beautiful surroundings.
In the four corners of the room, there are uniquely shaped wooden shelves.
Various exquisite ornaments are displayed on the shelves in a staggered manner.
It has a miniature energy pulse gun, a portable stealth shield generator, and a futuristic-looking neural jammer.
Behind these ornaments, there are cleverly designed hidden compartments.
Hidden inside is a more sophisticated and powerful biogas injector.
They lie dormant quietly, as if waiting for the moment they will be awakened.
In the very center of the room, a custom-made luxury bed occupies a prominent position.
The man on the bed was sleeping peacefully.
His hands and feet were tightly chained with heavy iron chains, the other end of which was deeply embedded in the wall, the cold metallic luster contrasting sharply with the soft bed.
The man's eyes were covered by a piece of black silk cloth.
His face appeared exceptionally serene under the gentle caress of the sunlight, and his even breathing broke the silence of the room.
He was immersed in a beautiful dream at that moment, completely unaware that he was in a dangerous situation.
Good things are always fleeting.
The man frowned slightly in his sleep, his thick eyelashes trembled gently, and his consciousness gradually returned from the haze.
He first let out a low groan, his voice hoarse and confused, as if he had just woken up:
"Hiss... Why does my head feel so heavy?"
He instinctively tried to raise his hand to rub his aching temples, but found that his hands were tightly bound, and his movements froze instantly.
Then he tried to open his eyes, but his eyelids felt like they were being pressed down by something heavy, and he couldn't open them no matter what he did.
"??? What's going on?!"
A strong sense of unease surged through the man's heart; his breathing became rapid, and his chest heaved violently.
He struggled to break free of his restraints, but heard the clanging sound of the chains hitting the wall.
"!!!"
The sudden noise brought him fully awake, and he finally realized that his current situation was extremely dangerous.
"Leaving the city?"
Yun Sui shouted at the top of his lungs, his voice echoing in the empty room, but he received no response.
His heart pounded faster and faster, crashing against his chest as if it were about to burst out of his chest.
Immediately afterwards, he called out urgently:
"Dye the Azure Sky!"
The voice was full of anxiety and anticipation, but only deathly silence answered him.
The silence was like a heavy stone, pressing down on him and making it hard for him to breathe.
Yun Sui's breathing grew heavier, his chest heaving violently. He paused briefly, then shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Immortality?!"
Every word was filled with his longing for his companions.
They longed for their response, eager to confirm whether they had encountered the same predicament.
However, apart from his own trembling voice, there was no other sound.
His heart sank as if into an ice cellar, and fear and despair began to spread within him.
"Where am I? How did I get tied up?"
Yun Sui was frantically questioning herself in her heart.
The brain begins to spin uncontrollably, trying to piece together what happened from the jumbled memories.
He clearly remembered that he and Ruan An hid in that secluded place, carefully observing their surroundings, but they did not find any suspicious signs or sense any danger approaching.
"wrong."
Yun Sui closed her eyes tightly, trying her best to recall.
Suddenly, he remembered that before he lost consciousness, he seemed to have faintly smelled a strange odor.
The scent was faint, almost imperceptible, yet it possessed a dizzying power.
Yun Sui's expression changed instantly, and her lips trembled slightly.
"..."
He tried to say something, but found that his throat felt like it was blocked by something, and he couldn't make a sound.
"We've been tricked?!"
Yun Sui finally came to her senses, and anger and resentment surged in her heart.
He pulled hard on the chain, the clanging of metal echoing in the room.
He gritted his teeth, his heart filled with frustration.
I was annoyed by my carelessness, realizing that I had fallen into someone else's trap without even noticing.
Yun Sui writhed wildly on the bed.
He struggled with all his might, trying to break free of the chains binding him.
At the same time, he kept shaking his head from side to side, trying to rub off the black silk cloth covering his eyes with his shoulder.
He had only one thought in his mind:
You must find out exactly where you are and who is behind this.
Sweat kept seeping from his forehead, soaking the hair at his temples.
His breathing became increasingly rapid, and in the quiet room, his heavy panting was particularly clear.
Just as he was panting heavily from all the commotion, a faint but gradually clearer sound of footsteps came from the corridor.
Yun Sui froze instantly, his heart clenching.
His brain raced, and he made a decision almost instantly—to feign unconsciousness.
He immediately stopped struggling and regulated his breathing as slowly as possible.
Let your rapid breathing gradually calm down, and try to return to the even breathing rhythm you had when you first woke up.
His body relaxed, and he lay back down on the bed.
He tried to restore his previous posture, with his hands and feet bound by chains, but his slightly trembling fingertips betrayed his inner tension and unease.
His ears were glued to the footsteps, each one feeling like a blow to his heart.
As the footsteps drew closer, his heart pounded harder and harder.
He could even hear his own heartbeat echoing in his ears.
He prayed silently, hoping his disguise would fool the people who were about to arrive.
At the same time, he secretly wondered who it could be.
Is he an enemy, or a savior who can help him escape his predicament?
Finally, the footsteps stopped at the door, followed by the faint sound of the doorknob turning.
Yun Sui's body tensed, her muscles involuntarily contracted, and her fingernails even dug deeply into her palms.
As the door slowly opened, a gentle breeze blew in, bringing a touch of unfamiliarity, and Yun Sui's heart jumped into her throat.
After the man entered the room, Yun Sui heard a rustling sound.
He pondered to himself:
"What is this? Is it...taking off clothes?!"
This thought shocked him greatly. His body instinctively wanted to move, but he forcibly restrained himself, and could only marvel silently in his heart:
“What is going on?
How could anyone do such a thing in front of a prisoner?
Just as Yun Sui was filled with doubt, the person began to move around again.
With the sound of light footsteps, he heard the sound of water being poured into a cup.
"Did this person go to get a drink of water?"
Yun Sui muttered to herself, finding the whole thing increasingly absurd and bizarre.
Immediately afterwards, footsteps sounded again, followed by the sound of a chair being moved.
Clearly, the man had already sat down and was leisurely drinking water.
Throughout the entire process, the man's movements were completely natural, without giving the slightest signal of tension or vigilance, as if Yun Sui did not exist at all, and he did not pay even the slightest attention to him.
