CHAPTER 113: CHAPTER 113: ESCAPE

Upon hearing the man’s words, Sang Yu’s pupils instantly widened, "You..."

"Don’t worry, I wouldn’t want to do anything to such a pretty lady. It’s just that we might need your help with a little task later."

Sang Yu looked at him, the man was clearly up to no good, "What do you want?"

The man sneered, "You better not know."

Sang Yu tried to keep herself calm, the more crucial the moment, the less she should panic.

The man suddenly laughed, "You’re indeed calmer than her, no wonder you could marry Jiang Jingming."

Her? Who is she? Is it Song Jiajia?

Though doubtful inside, Sang Yu maintained an indifferent expression, realizing that asking more questions wouldn’t yield any answers from the man before her.

Suddenly, Sang Yu caught a familiar scent, identical to the one she previously mentioned to Jiang Jingming.

So, the people who captured her are those people.

But why did they capture her?

Could it be to restrain Jiang Jingming?

If that’s the case, she needs to escape as soon as possible, or else it might delay Jiang Jingming’s work.

At this moment, a man walked in, whispered a few words to the seated gentleman, who then stood up.

He looked at Sang Yu, "Zhang San, Zhao Wu, watch her well, don’t let her escape."

"Yes!" Zhang San and Zhao Wu replied in unison.

The man then strode out.

Though unsure of what had occurred, Sang Yu’s intuition suggested it might be related to Jiang Jingming.

She cautiously surveyed the surroundings, appearing remote, devoid of any sound.

No signs of habitation nearby.

Such a remote location makes escape difficult, especially not knowing how many people they have.

Not even aware of the layout outside, her escape must succeed at the first attempt.

A failure would lead to unimaginable consequences.

Now, two men are watching her in the room, and it’s unclear how many are outside.

After a while, Sang Yu said, "I need to use the restroom."

Zhang San glanced at Sang Yu without responding.

Feeling a bit impatient, Sang Yu said, "I need to use the restroom!"

Zhang San replied coldly, "Solve it here!"

Sang Yu, "I need to go big, how to solve it here? Hurry up, I need the restroom!"

Zhang San and Zhao Wu exchanged glances, remaining silent.

Sang Yu, "I’m a woman; you have so many people, afraid I might escape?"

Don’t blame me if I soil my pants.

Recalling the scent, Zhang San and Zhao Wu eventually relented.

Zhao Wu nodded.

Zhang San stepped forward, "Get up, follow me."

Only then did Sang Yu rise and follow Zhang San out.

Zhang San walked ahead of Sang Yu, while Zhao Wu closely followed behind her.

Though walking straight, Sang Yu was actually assessing the layout with her peripheral vision.

Here seemed like an abandoned factory; the walls looked very old.

Suggesting this could be a temporary location for them.

Perhaps not their main base, meaning even though Jiang Jingming might have started acting against these people, likely wouldn’t have his men stationed here.

So even if she escapes, her people might not find her.

Then, Zhang San stopped, pointing to a room, "Go in there."

It wasn’t a restroom, just an abandoned room; Sang Yu opened the door and went inside.

Zhang San and Zhao Wu remained at the door.

As soon as Sang Yu closed the door, she checked the room’s layout. It was small, with only a tiny window about two meters high.

That was the only exit she could use to escape.

Looking around, there was nothing else in the room.

No tools to help her climb to the two-meter-high window.

But missing this chance might mean no other opportunities.

Estimating fewer people here, yet based on her observations, a dash would certainly lead to discovery.

Especially with Zhang San and Zhao Wu sticking close.

Suddenly, she noticed some protruding rebar beside the window, as if something used to be placed there.

If she could use the rebar to climb, she might have a chance to escape.

Besides, being on the ground floor, jumping down wouldn’t be deadly.

While considering her options, an abrupt knock came from outside.

"Are you done yet?"

Sang Yu’s heart skipped a beat but responded calmly, "Why the rush? Can this be hurried?"

Then, Sang Yu said, "Oh, I don’t have toilet paper, can you get me some?"

Zhang San retorted sternly, "Women, always so troublesome—no, find a way yourself."

Sang Yu replied irritably, "No is no, why so noisy."

"Don’t rush me; I’ll come out when I’m done!"

Zhang San wanted to say more, but Zhao Wu shook his head.

Zhang San spat and dropped the subject.

Inside, Sang Yu had already started undressing; luckily, the cold weather meant extra clothing layers.

Removing them, twisting into a rope, they could be flung over the rebar.

Sang Yu seized the moment, flinging the twisted clothes over the rebar, as they fell past.

Nervous palms sweaty, she tried again, succeeding this time.

Tugging at it, it seemed strong enough to support her climb.

Now able to climb slowly with the fabric’s help; midway, she adjusted her breathing, calling out, "Can’t you really get me toilet paper?"

Zhang San cursed impatiently, "Such a hassle, no, hurry up and come out when you’re done!"

Sang Yu cursed back, "Why the rush, I’m accustomed to scents other than feces."

Zhang San muttered, "This woman speaks disgustingly."

Zhao Wu consoled, "Forget it, the boss told us to watch her; ignore other matters."

Zhang San cursed under his breath.

Zhang San then commented, "I recall this room having a window."

Zhao Wu replied, "Yeah, but it’s over two meters high, even I can’t reach it, relax."

Zhang San felt reassured.

By now, Sang Yu had reached the window.

Small enough for her to squeeze through.

She quietly poked her head out, checking the surroundings.

Noticing no one around, Sang Yu gradually shifted her body, eyeing the ground below roughly two meters away.

Sang Yu contemplated, upon landing, her face must be protected.

Finally, with most of her body extended, she was about to fall due to imbalance.

Sang Yu shielded her face, letting herself free-fall.

In an unexpected moment, someone seemed to catch her.

Suddenly terrified, Sang Yu feared being discovered?
