Chapter 1289 Sowing discord

The man had his back to her. He was tall and wearing a black suit, and he exuded a cold aura.

"Who are you?" Jiang Mubai asked vigilantly.

The man turned around slowly, revealing a handsome yet gloomy face.

"Long time no see, Jiang Mubai, or should I call you Jiang Muxue?" The man sneered and said in a cold tone.

The man's cold voice made Jiang Mubai's heart tremble. Jiang Muxue? She was familiar with this name. She was her half-sister who had passed away a few years ago. Could it be that this man had recognized the wrong person?

"You've got the wrong person. I'm not Jiang Muxue." Jiang Mubai tried to stay calm and said in a cold tone.

The man sneered, with a hint of mockery in his eyes, "Stop pretending, Jiang Muxue, do you think I won't recognize you if you change your identity?"

He approached Jiang Mubai step by step, and the strong sense of oppression made Jiang Mubai almost unable to breathe.

"Who are you? What do you want to do?" Jiang Mubai asked sternly, suppressing the fear in his heart.

The man stopped and looked down at Jiang Mubai with a cruel smile on his face. "It doesn't matter who I am. What's important is that you will know soon."

After saying that, he suddenly reached out and covered Jiang Mubai's mouth with one hand, and strangled her neck tightly with the other hand. Jiang Mubai struggled desperately, but to no avail.

The man was very strong. She felt her breathing becoming more and more difficult and her consciousness gradually became blurred.

When she woke up again, Jiang Mubai found herself tied up in a dark and damp basement. Her limbs were tied with rough hemp ropes and a piece of rag was stuffed in her mouth, making it impossible for her to make any sound.

“Mmm…” Jiang Mubai struggled, trying to send a signal for help, but could only make vague whimpering sounds.

At this time, the door of the basement was opened, and a burly man walked in with a whip in his hand and a ferocious smile on his face.

The man walked up to Jiang Mubai and roughly pulled the rag out of her mouth: "Wake up, Jiang Muxue, you never thought that you would have this day!"

Jiang Mubai was filled with fear and doubt. She didn't understand why this man mistook her for Jiang Muxue? What did Jiang Muxue's death have to do with her?

"Who are you? Why did you kidnap me?" Jiang Mubai asked in a hoarse voice.

The man laughed out loud: "I said, it doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that you must pay me back what you owe me!"

He swung the whip in his hand and lashed Jiang Mubai hard.

"Ah!" Jiang Mubai screamed. The severe pain almost made her faint.

"Tell me! Why did you want to kill my sister?!" the man roared while beating Jiang Mubai.

Jiang Mubai gritted her teeth and endured the pain in her body. She didn't understand who the man was talking about as his sister, and she didn't understand why he wanted to kill her.

"I didn't! You got the wrong person!" Jiang Mubai shouted at the top of his lungs.

The man didn't seem to believe Jiang Mubai's words. He became more ruthless and whipped Jiang Mubai again and again. Soon, her body was covered with shocking scars.

Jiang Mubai felt her body was numb and her consciousness was beginning to blur. Just when she was about to faint, the door to the basement was opened again.

A man in a black suit walked in. He was tall and slender, with a handsome face and a cold aura.

"Stop." the man said coldly.

The man holding the whip stopped, turned around, and said respectfully to the visitor, "Mr. Qin."

The person who came was Qin Yuanqing. He walked up to Jiang Mubai and looked down at her, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

"Jiang Mubai, you really disappoint me." Qin Yuanqing said in a cold tone.

Jiang Mubai raised her head weakly and looked at Qin Yuanqing in front of her. She finally understood that she was involved in a conspiracy. And the mastermind behind this conspiracy was Qin Yuanqing.

"Why...are you doing this?" Jiang Mubai asked with difficulty.

Qin Yuanqing sneered: "Why? Because you deserve to die!"

He suddenly grabbed Jiang Mubai's neck, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

"Hmm~." Jiang Mubai felt that his breathing was becoming more and more difficult, and the world in front of him gradually became dark.

At this moment, the basement door was knocked open again and a figure rushed in.

"Let her go!"

The person who came was Cheng Yunchuan. He pushed Qin Yuanqing away and hugged Jiang Mubai in his arms.

"Mu Bai! How are you?" Cheng Yunchuan asked anxiously.

Jiang Mubai opened her eyes weakly, and when she saw Cheng Yunchuan's face, a warm feeling suddenly surged in her heart.

"Yunchuan~."

Cheng Yunchuan hugged Jiang Mubai tightly, his eyes full of heartache and anger. He raised his head and looked at Qin Yuanqing with cold eyes.

"Qin Yuanqing, how dare you touch her!"

Qin Yuanqing sneered: "Cheng Yunchuan, you are finally here. I thought you would always hide from me."

"Why should I hide from you?" Cheng Yunchuan asked coldly.

"Because you are afraid of me, afraid that I will expose your secret, Cheng Yunchuan, do you think you have hidden it well? Do you think I don't know who you are?" A hint of pride flashed in Qin Yuanqing's eyes.

Cheng Yunchuan's expression changed slightly. He didn't expect that Qin Yuanqing actually knew his true identity.

"what do you know?"

Qin Yuanqing approached Cheng Yunchuan step by step: "I know everything about you. I know you are the illegitimate child of the Qin family. I know you approached Jiang Mubai to avenge me. I know..."

Cheng Yunchuan roared, interrupting Qin Yuanqing's words: Enough! "Qin Yuanqing, don't try to sow discord!"

He hugged Jiang Mubai tightly, turned around and walked out.

"Cheng Yunchuan, do you think you can escape? I won't let you go!" Qin Yuanqing sneered.

Cheng Yunchuan ignored Qin Yuanqing's threat. He hugged Jiang Mubai and quickly left the basement.

……

Cheng Yunchuan rushed out of the dark and damp basement carrying Jiang Mubai and placed her in the back seat of the car. His movements were gentle and his eyes were full of heartache, as if he was treating a precious piece of porcelain.

Jiang Mubai's face was pale, with whip marks all over his body. He leaned weakly on the chair, breathing slightly.

"Mu Bai, how are you? Where does it hurt?" Cheng Yunchuan asked anxiously, and his slender fingers gently stroked the hair on her forehead, trying to wipe away the pain on her face.

Jiang Mubai forced a smile: "I'm fine, I won't die."

She paused and looked at Cheng Yunchuan with a complicated look in her eyes: "Is it true that Qin Yuanqing said that Jiang Muxue asked you to take care of me?"

Cheng Yunchuan's eyes were stern, and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Don't listen to his nonsense, he just wants to sow discord."

He started the car and drove away from this place of trouble at high speed.

Back at Cheng Yunchuan's villa, Jiang Mubai's injuries had been treated and the pain was slightly relieved. She wrapped herself in a bathrobe, curled up on the sofa, staring at the flickering images on the TV screen with empty eyes.
