Chapter 464 Trying to Escape
Chapter 464 Trying to Escape
As time went by, Jiang Mubai spent enough time in the mountains and forests, so she also got to know every corner and area of the forests.
She was very worried about Cheng Yunchuan in her heart, but she kept a calm face, determined not to let the strange man know what she was thinking.
One day, Jiang Mubai used the excuse of having a stomachache to send the strange man away, and then she planned to run away from here, but she never expected that the strange man actually knew medical knowledge.
The man picked up Jiang Mubai's wrist and felt her pulse without saying a word. Jiang Mubai was so stunned that she forgot to struggle.
After taking Jiang Mubai's pulse, the strange man exposed Jiang Mubai's lie. After he knew that Jiang Mubai was lying to him, he stepped up his surveillance on Jiang Mubai.
Jiang Mubai's thoughts were exposed, and she felt extremely regretful.
She warned herself in her heart that she must be careful in the future and not be discovered by strange men again. After Jiang Mubai pretended to have a stomachache, strange men became wary of Jiang Mubai.
Therefore, the probability of Jiang Mubai escaping from here was greatly reduced. She calmed herself down and planned to calm down before slowly looking for an opportunity.
After two days, Jiang Mubai had figured out the cycle of the man going down the mountain to purchase, and today was the day the strange man would go down the mountain.
Jiang Mubai pretended to be still asleep in order to lower the strange man's vigilance, but the strange man didn't care whether she was awake or not. He packed up his things and went down the mountain with his things without coming to Jiang Mubai's cabin to check on the situation.
Jiang Mubai was furious after hearing the noise. You know, every night when she went back to her room to rest, the man would come and lock the door to prevent Jiang Mubai from escaping when he wasn't paying attention, and then come and unlock the door for her after she got up the next morning.
As a result, today this man was going down the mountain to purchase something and he locked her in the wooden house. Jiang Mubai knew the man was worried but still couldn't help scolding him for being heartless and ungrateful in her heart.
Time was running out, and Jiang Mubai didn't dare to waste any more time in bed, so he immediately turned over and looked at the plan to escape.
Her belly was now visible, and all her movements were not as light and flexible as before, so she didn't dare to waste time for fear that she would be caught by a strange man halfway through her run.
The wooden door was locked to Jiang Mubai, and she had no tools to pry off the lock, so Jiang Mubai gave up the idea of escaping through the wooden door.
She came to the window and looked for a long time. There were bars between the windows. Jiang Mubai couldn't escape with his current body, so she had no choice but to give up.
She tried to pry the bars open, but after spending half a day she was only able to loosen one of them a little bit, and was unable to move any of the bars at all.
She doesn't have much time left. If she can't find a way out, the strange man will come back with the purchase.
Jiang Mubai had lived in the wooden house for such a long time that she had already mastered its structure. The only place where she could go outside was the ventilation window above the toilet in the wooden house. The window had been open since she moved in and had never been closed.
Jiang Mubai stood below and estimated the size of the window and found that she could pass through safely, but the window was too high. Jiang Mubai could use a bench to prop her feet up inside, but there was nothing outside to catch her.
Even if there was something outside, Jiang Mubai wouldn't dare to risk jumping out of the window given her current physical condition.
Moreover, climbing up the window is a difficult action for her. If she was not pregnant before, Jiang Mubai might have tried to climb up, but now her belly is so big, she is unwilling to take any risks to do such things.
Jiang Mubai wanted to try wrapping the quilt around herself and using it as a cushion under her body when she jumped, but the window was too small for her to pass through with the quilt.
Jiang Mubai spent most of the morning looking for an opportunity to leave the cabin, but she found that it was all in vain. In her current condition, it was impossible for her to leave in such an environment.
"Oh, no wonder you left so confidently after locking me up. It turns out you knew I couldn't leave here alone."
Jiang Mubai sat on the edge of the bed in frustration. Before, when she saw the man taking care of her food, clothing and daily life every day, Jiang Mubai felt very touched. But now, this man was so defensive against her after knowing that she wanted to escape.
"If that's the case, then I won't cooperate. I'll see how you can act like you're fine then."
Jiang Mubai didn't really want to discooperate with the strange man. After all, the baby in her belly was important, and she couldn't let the baby go hungry.
Just when Jiang Mubai was in a daze beside the bed, the strange man came back from outside with something.
Before he had time to put his things down, he went straight to Jiang Mubai's wooden house to open the door for her and let her come out for some fresh air. Jiang Mubai pretended not to hear the noise and continued to sit on the edge of the bed motionless.
The man came in and placed the fruits he brought from the mountain and the parenting books he bought on the table, but Jiang Mubai didn't respond at all.
Jiang Mubai's condition today was different from the previous two times, so the man was very confused and didn't know what happened to Jiang Mubai.
He took those things from the table and put them on the bedside table next to Jiang Mubai to attract Jiang Mubai's attention, but Jiang Mubai was determined to ignore him.
The man had no choice but to put down his things and leave. He was going to prepare brunch for Jiang Mubai. After all, he didn't prepare any food for Jiang Mubai when he left. Jiang Mubai was already hungry after coming back after being out for most of the day.
In order to save time, the strange man cooked a bowl of noodles for each of them. The noodles contained vegetables and eggs, which satisfied Jiang Mubai's body's nutritional needs.
No matter how uncooperative Jiang Mubai was, she still had to eat. She was pregnant and couldn't let the baby go hungry. Besides, no matter how uncooperative she was, she couldn't let herself starve. If she starved herself, she might not be able to seize the opportunity to escape even if she had the chance.
So Jiang Mubai was thinking very clearly. She picked up her bowl and chopsticks and went to the door to sit down to eat. While the strange man was cooking, he couldn't figure out what was wrong with Jiang Mubai. When he finished cooking and was about to eat with Jiang Mubai, Jiang Mubai did this to him again.
Jiang Mubai sat in front of the door and started eating by herself. Of course, she could feel the gaze of the strange man behind her.
But she just didn't want to pay attention to her now, and Jiang Mubai warned himself in his heart that he would ignore him in the future.
Before, Jiang Mubai would say a few words from time to time. Although he didn’t get a response from the strange man, Jiang Mubai still couldn’t help but speak.
But Jiang Mubai was unwilling to talk now, and the strange man was even less likely to speak. An eerie silence fell between the two of them. The man was not used to eating in a hurry and leaving.
Jiang Mubai didn't care about him after seeing him. The strange man was washing dishes in the yard, and Jiang Mubai could see his figure from his position.
