So where has Nianyang been taken to at this moment?
Let's shift the focus a bit. After Nianyang saw the masked man, she didn't even have time to make a sound before she was knocked out by him.
When she regained consciousness, she found herself brought to a beautifully picturesque four-sided courtyard with mountains, water, and flowers, looking just like a villa.
If she hadn't been gagged and tied tightly to a chair, it might have felt like a vacation.
Any time before, Nianyang would have felt somewhat nervous about being kidnapped, yet this time she was surprisingly calm, feeling a detached serenity.
She thought perhaps it was due to feeling hopeless, making life and death seem unimportant, and she was rather open-minded about it.
However, because she'd fallen into the water yesterday and hadn't changed her clothes, wearing them damp all night, combined with not eating, she felt weak and feverish, thinking she had caught a cold.
