Perhaps sensing the tense atmosphere, Qixi cried fiercely. The kidnapper, overwhelmed by the crying, snarled, "Cry again and I'll kill you with one slash!"
Qixi: "Wah wah wah wah!"
Jiang Jiu couldn't help but say, "Give the child to me. Talking reason with her now is futile. It'll be better if I hold her. As long as the child is with you, I won't go anywhere."
The kidnapper glanced at Jiang Jiu warily, but there were no other options at the moment.
Qixi nestled in Jiang Jiu's arms, her cries gradually subsiding. Jiang Jiu comforted her softly while noticing she was still clutching her pearl necklace, feeling slightly relieved.
These people were most likely after her.
After all, they had little patience for Qixi. It didn't seem like they kidnapped Qixi for ransom. If they were targeting her, that would explain it.
