The time of the city

Chapter 233 A wonderful day

In the early morning, the gentle sunlight shines softly into the house through the thin curtains, giving the entire space a warm yellow glow.

Mo Yu sat at the dining table, her body tense and her mind uneasy, her left hand always covering her pocket.

Ni Jiamu sat across from her, peeled an egg, and placed it on the plate in front of Mo Yu. He said softly, "Xiao Yu, eat an egg to replenish your nutrition."

Mo Yu pretended not to hear anything and mechanically picked up an unpeeled egg. Before Ni Jiamu could say anything to stop her, she subconsciously bit into it.

With a "crack", her mouth was filled with the roughness and dryness of eggshells. She woke up from her dream and screamed.

Ni Jiamu quickly handed over a napkin: "Xiaoyu, are you feeling unwell? You've been absent-minded all morning."

Mo Yu hurriedly spat the eggshell in her mouth onto the napkin and threw it into the trash can at her feet. She then picked up her water cup, took a big gulp of water to rinse her mouth, and replied incoherently, "I might not have woken up yet. My mind is a little fuzzy."

"Then why don't you have breakfast and then go to sleep for a while? It won't be too late for us to go to the bridal shop after you wake up."

"No, we'll go now."

Ni Jiamu caught her every time she tried to escape. This time, Mo Yu was extremely nervous. She didn't sleep all night last night, holding her phone tightly in her hand, afraid that it would disappear if she closed her eyes.

"Okay then. I'll send someone to pick up Yueyue right away. Eat more and we'll set off right away."

Sitting in the car, Mo Yu, as usual, leaned against the window, quietly looking at the scenery outside. The sun was particularly bright today, shining warmly on her body, but her heart felt like it was weighed down by a heavy stone, and she couldn't relax at all.

The big screen in the street mall was filled with photos of Mo Yu, some smiling, some angry, and each one was magnified several times.

In the taxis passing by, scrolling screens were constantly playing Ni Jiamu's affectionate confession to Mo Yu.

As she watched all this, she felt a tightness in her chest and difficulty breathing. She simply turned her head away from looking out the window and kept repeating to herself in her heart: I just can't bear to leave, it's okay, I will come back later.

"The sun is shining brightly today." Ni Jiamu turned to look at Mo Yu, his eyes full of smiles. "This is a beautiful day. God has shown mercy on me. I will remember this day forever."

Arriving at the bridal shop, Ni Jiamu dropped Mo Yu off and went to park the car. As soon as Mo Yu got out of the car, she saw Yue Yue standing at the door of the bridal shop, looking around.

As soon as she saw Mo Yu, Yue Yue's eyes lit up and she rushed towards her, whispering in her ear, "Sister Xiao Yu, I will definitely cooperate with you today and will definitely not hold you back!"

"Thank you, Yueyue. Brother is here. Let's go in first."

Because Ni Jiamu had informed them in advance, the bridal shop was only open to them today. As soon as Mo Yu entered, four or five staff members bowed in unison to greet her, their faces filled with warm smiles, their eyes looking at her as if they had seen the God of Wealth.

"Xiao Yu, take a look first to see if there is a style you like. If not, we can go to another store." Ni Jiamu walked to Mo Yu and said softly.

This store was not originally within his consideration. In his opinion, the wedding dresses here were of too low a quality and were not worthy of Mo Yu at all.

He had specially asked famous designers from various countries to customize more than a dozen wedding dresses. He wanted to take Mo Yu to try on those unique dresses, but he didn't expect that she insisted on coming here.

Although he had many doubts in his heart, they were suppressed by joy. He was willing to believe that Mo Yu really wanted to live a good life with him and would never leave him again.

Mo Yu pretended to be calm as she walked around the store. Her eyes finally landed on a wedding dress that was the most complicated and difficult to wear. She pointed at it and said, "I want to try this one."

Ni Jiamu looked in the direction she pointed, frowning slightly. He secretly thought that this wedding dress was a bit tacky, but looking at Mo Yu's expectant eyes, he nodded without hesitation and said gently, "Since you like it, go try it on."

Seeing this, a staff member nearby quickly stepped forward and said, "This wedding dress is a bit heavy and not very easy to wear. Let me ask two colleagues to help you."

"No thanks." Mo Yu smiled and declined, holding Yue Yue's arm. "My sister can help me. I'm not used to interacting with strangers."

Ni Jiamu didn't say much, just smiled and nodded. Yueyue understood what he meant and quickly pulled Mo Yu into the dressing room.

After Mo Yu went in, she subconsciously walked out and looked back at Ni Jiamu. Ni Jiamu smiled gently in return and said softly, "I'll wait for you outside."

Mo Yu's mood grew heavier. She looked at Ni Jiamu deeply for a few seconds, then turned back to the dressing room and closed the door.

In the dressing room, Mo Yu quickly took out her phone. On the screen were several messages from Leng Xiyan:

"Come out of the dressing room and walk straight along the corridor until you see the back door. Go out through the back door and there will be two people in black clothes to meet you."

"Considering that you might be intercepted by Ni Jiamu if you take a plane or high-speed train, they will take you to the dock and give you a boat ticket. You can take the boat to the next city first."

"I've made a fake ID for you. The driver will give it to you. Have a safe trip."

After reading the message, Mo Yu turned to look at Yue Yue: "Yue Yue, let's change clothes. I'll wear your clothes and run out."

Yueyue didn't hesitate at all and immediately began to take off her clothes, her movements swift and decisive. After changing her clothes, Moyu just walked to the door and suddenly turned back.

"If I run away, my brother will definitely know that you helped me. Uncle Yang is still working at home, and I can't implicate you. I have to let you go, Yueyue. I'll knock you out, and then you can say that I knocked you out and changed your clothes and ran away when you weren't paying attention." Mo Yu said, trembling as she picked up the stick beside her.

However, she held the stick for a long time, but her hand still couldn't bring itself to move.

Seeing this, Yueyue grabbed the stick and said anxiously, "Sister Xiaoyu, there's no time. I can't delay you! I can do it myself!" After that, she picked up the stick without hesitation and hit herself hard on the back of the head. There was a dull "bang", Yueyue rolled her eyes and fell straight to the ground.

"Thank you, Yueyue." Mo Yu's eyes were red. She gritted her teeth and ran out according to the route given by Leng Xiyan without looking back.

Mo Yu walked out the back door, her head deliberately lowered and her steps hurried. Not far away, two men in black immediately noticed her and trotted over.

"Miss Mo, come with us." One of the men whispered.

Mo Yu looked back at the bridal shop, a trace of reluctance and determination flashed in her eyes, and she gritted her teeth and got into the car.

At this moment, Ni Jiamu was standing at the door of the dressing room with great anticipation, his eyes fixed on the tightly closed door, hoping to see Mo Yu in her wedding dress walking towards him as soon as possible.

The shop assistants around them all pretended to be busy, occasionally glancing at Ni Jiamu and whispering, "Mo Yu is so lucky to be able to marry such a handsome and wealthy Mr. Ni. The key is that Mr. Ni is also so affectionate, he is simply love-brained. I also want to get a script like this as the heroine in my next life."

Time passed, and the door to the changing room remained closed. A staff member nearby couldn't help but grumble, "It's been so long, why haven't you changed yet? Don't you know how to dress? You asked for help."

Ni Jiamu's heart was inexplicably flustered, but he was also worried that if he ran over rashly, Mo Yu would be halfway through changing her clothes and he would open the door, which would embarrass her.

Just as he was hesitating, the staff member looked at Ni Jiamu pacing anxiously and bravely suggested: "Mr. Ni, I'll go take a look. If Miss Mo encounters any problems, I can also help."

Ni Jiamu nodded quickly. The staff member trotted to the door of the dressing room. As soon as the door was opened, a terrified scream came out: "Someone fainted, Miss Mo is gone!"

Upon hearing this, Ni Jiamu felt his breath choke, his head buzzed, and he seemed to have lost all his strength as he stumbled towards the changing room.

"What's going on? Check the surveillance and find someone quickly!" His voice was filled with unprecedented panic and anger.

The staff member was so scared that he was shaking all over and stammered, "There is no surveillance in the changing room. The store's surveillance was just removed a few days ago and is about to be replaced with a new one. The technician will not be here until tomorrow, so...so there is no surveillance right now."

By this time, the car had already driven a long way. Mo Yu sat in the back seat, the discomfort in her heart growing stronger and stronger.

Zhang San, the man in black sitting in the passenger seat, glanced at the back seat, handed over a bottle of water, and said with concern, "Miss Mo, drink some water first. We're going to the dock in the suburbs, and it's a long journey. Don't get thirsty."

"Thank you." Mo Yu was a little thirsty, so she took the water and took a big sip.

After putting down the water, she leaned back in the chair. Perhaps because she was too tired from not sleeping all night, her eyelids became heavier and heavier, and she soon fell asleep.
