After she became the daughter of a vicious warlord, she cleaned herself up

Chapter 253 Mysterious Man

Jiang Shiyuan was suddenly pulled backwards by a great force, and his back hit the cold wall heavily, making a dull sound.

Before she could react, a rough and powerful hand covered her mouth tightly, blocking all her screams in her throat.

At the same time, a pair of iron-like arms tightly clamped her waist and arms, making her unable to move.

She was so frightened by this sudden change that her heart began to beat like a drum and her body began to struggle instinctively.

However, he found that the opponent's strength was so great that he was like a prey trapped in an iron cage, unable to resist at all.

In the darkness, she could only sense the strange and dangerous aura emanating from the other person.

And the rough touch of the hand covering her mouth, rubbing against her delicate skin like sandpaper.

Fear surged into his heart like a tide, and Jiang Shiyuan forced himself to calm down.

She actually adjusted her watch before she walked out of the banquet hall.

Once in danger, she just needs to find an opportunity to press the button, and the other party will be poisoned by the rock salt needle that can kill them instantly.

However, at this moment, a low and magnetic voice sounded in her ears, with a hint of teasing and warning.

"Ms. Ayako, don't try to do anything tricky."

"Otherwise, I will immediately strangle your snow-white and smooth neck!"

The voice was like a ghost, causing Jiang Shiyuan to freeze all over.

She realized that the other party had obviously seen through her plan and knew her background very well.

Jiang Shiyuan's heart sank. If she acted rashly at this moment, she would only put herself in an even more dangerous situation.

So she gave up resisting and let the other party drag her to the utility room at the end of the corridor.

With a bang, the door of the utility room was closed, blocking out the noise outside.

In the dim room, only a small window let in a faint light, allowing them to barely see each other's figures.

In the narrow and cramped space, it was so quiet that one could hear the two people's slightly disordered breathing.

Jiang Shiyuan tried hard to calm his rapid heartbeat, trying to find a breakthrough in this tense atmosphere.

The mysterious man chuckled, breaking the suffocating silence.

He took off Jiang Shiyuan's watch and, with the light coming through the crack in the door, he held it in his palm to study it.

"You!" Jiang Shiyuan was shocked. This watch was her last life-saving talisman, and she subconsciously wanted to take it back.

However, the mysterious man seemed to have anticipated her reaction and held the watch high so that Jiang Shiyuan could not reach it at all.

Jiang Shiyuan tried to jump up to grab it, but her height was no advantage in front of the tall mysterious man, and her several attempts ended in failure.

She stopped panting, feeling anxious.

This watch contains a rock salt poison needle that she carefully developed. If it is discovered by the other party, the consequences will be disastrous.

What worries her even more is that she might accidentally hurt herself in the fight, which would be a real loss.

"Don't touch my watch!" Jiang Shiyuan couldn't help but exclaim in desperation.

Upon hearing this, the mysterious man chuckled again, with a hint of conspiracy succeeding in his laughter.

"So there really is something wrong with this watch. I can't possibly give it back to you then!"

The corners of his thin, rosy lips curled up with a hint of amusement, as if he was admiring Jiang Shiyuan's panic at the moment.

Seeing this, Jiang Shiyuan simply stopped fighting.

She took a deep breath, leaned against the shelf behind her, crossed her arms over her chest, and put on an indifferent attitude.

"Who are you? What do you want to do?" she asked coldly, her eyes full of vigilance and inquiry.

The mysterious man did not answer her question directly, but asked: "Wasn't it Miss Ayako who was interested in me first and has been secretly observing me?"

His voice was low and magnetic, with a hint of a smile, making it difficult to figure out his true intentions.

Jiang Shiyuan's heart trembled, and she immediately realized that the other person was the handsome young man she had noticed at the beginning, who was dressed in low-key and luxurious clothes and exuded the aura of a superior.

She didn't expect that her observation was noticed by the other party and he even outwitted her.

"I'm just curious, why would a person like you appear here?"

Jiang Shiyuan tried to conceal his true purpose. When the enemy and us are unclear, it is very dangerous to expose his true intentions.

"Oh? Then where do you think I should appear, Ms. Ayako?"

The mysterious man asked with interest, he seemed to enjoy this cat and mouse game.

"I don't know," Jiang Shiyuan shrugged. "Perhaps with your identity and status, it's not surprising that you appear at the welcome dinner of the Military Police Headquarters."

"Ms. Ayako is indeed smart," the mysterious man nodded approvingly, "but I'm afraid you will be disappointed with the reason why I'm here."

"Disappointed?" Jiang Shiyuan raised his eyebrows. "Why would I be disappointed?"

"Because I came here just to see someone."

The mysterious man said this, staring at Jiang Shiyuan with burning eyes, as if he wanted to see through her.

"Meet someone?" Jiang Shiyuan's mind moved, "Meet who?"

"A very special person." He smiled mysteriously, "Someone who haunts my dreams."

The mysterious man's voice rose at the end, with a hint of ambiguity, which gave Jiang Shiyuan goose bumps on his exposed arms.

"Really?" Jiang Shiyuan laughed dryly, rubbing his arms, and said in a bad tone: "Then you should quickly find someone. Why did you tie me up and bring me here?"

The mysterious man suddenly changed the subject, "Before I let you go, I have one more thing I want to ask Miss Ayako."

"What's the matter?" Jiang Shiyuan asked vigilantly.

The mysterious man shook the watch in his hand and said, "I wonder if Miss Ayako can tell me what secrets it holds?"

There was a dangerous gleam in his eyes, which made Jiang Shiyuan feel nervous.

"This is just an ordinary watch, what secrets can it have?" Jiang Shiyuan pretended to be calm.

"An ordinary watch?" The mysterious man sneered, "Ms. Ayako, do you think I will believe your lies?"

"Believe it or not!" Jiang Shiyuan shrugged, "Anyway, I've said everything I need to say."

"Really?" The mysterious man suddenly approached Jiang Shiyuan, and a strong sense of oppression came over him.

"What if I say I must know the secret of this watch?"

His voice was low and dangerous, with a hint of unquestionable authority.

Jiang Shiyuan said impatiently: "I don't care about you, then go and study it yourself!"

"Very good!" The mysterious man nodded. "Since Miss Ayako is so uncooperative, I will have to use some extraordinary measures."

As he spoke, he suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Jiang Shiyuan's neck.

"Ahem...what...what do you want to do?"

Jiang Shiyuan felt suffocated. She struggled desperately but could not break free from the other party's grip.

"Don't be nervous, Miss Ayako."

The mysterious man leaned close to Jiang Shiyuan's ear and whispered, "I just want you to be quiet for a while and think carefully about whether you should tell me everything you know."

His voice was gentle and dangerous, like a poisonous snake hissing in your ear.

Jiang Shiyuan never expected that he would fall into such a dangerous situation.

Just then, the door of the utility room was suddenly knocked from outside.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk-"

The knock on the door was particularly clear in the silent utility room, and the originally tense atmosphere instantly froze.

"Who?" the mysterious man asked in a low voice, loosening the strength in his hands a little.

"It's me, Ito-kun, are you in there?"

A familiar voice came from outside the door. It was Takahashi Yui.
