Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg-Chapter 670 Someone Set a Trap

"Yeah, they even specifically hired an assassin to kidnap me." Jiang Xue spoke lightly, but as soon as Mu Qiancheng heard the word ’assassin’, his expression changed instantly.

Previously, Gao Yang hadn’t mentioned hiring an assassin; he had thought Gao Yang would handle it personally because Gao Yang assured him that Jiang Xue would be fine.

Damn it, Gao Yang actually lied to him.

"Xue’er, are you okay?" Mu Qiancheng asked nervously. Assassins care only for money, not lives. Even though Jiang Xue was fine sitting beside him, the thought that she almost lost her life made his heart tighten involuntarily.

After all, assassins have no regard for people, just for money.

"I’m fine!" Jiang Xue, seeing Mu Qiancheng’s worried look, felt a bit guilty and quickly explained, "The assassin wasn’t trying to kill me, just kidnap me."

Relieved, Mu Qiancheng said to Jiang Xue, "What exactly happened? Tell me the whole story."

Jiang Xue recounted the events, and as Mu Qiancheng listened, he frowned and said, "Xue’er, since you realized there was someone in the car, why did you foolishly get in? Didn’t you think to call the police?"

"I was just curious, wanted to see what the person in the car wanted to do, wanted to know who sent them."

Seeing Jiang Xue looking like she did nothing wrong, Mu Qiancheng’s expression became stern, "Xue’er, curiosity killed the cat, you’ve heard that saying, right? What if that assassin’s goal wasn’t to kidnap you, but to kill you instead? Getting into the car would be falling right into their trap, wouldn’t it?"

"I didn’t think that far..." Jiang Xue finally realized her mistake under Mu Qiancheng’s words. He was right; if that person’s intent was to kill her, would she have been able to escape that day?

Probably not, she thought, as soon as she opened the car door, the other could have acted. However, with Little Fox as her strategist, there wouldn’t likely be a problem. But what if she wasn’t there?

Thinking this way, Jiang Xue realized she needed to be more cautious in the future, not so careless, and shouldn’t put herself in danger out of curiosity.

Seeing Jiang Xue finally realize her mistake, Mu Qiancheng didn’t push further but comforted, "Xue’er, I understand you lack experience in this area, but you should learn from this mistake."

"I understand, I won’t be so reckless next time."

Seeing Jiang Xue like this, Mu Qiancheng nodded in satisfaction and said, "Although Lu Ling has been scared by you, for peace of mind, I’ll take care of her soon."

"Do as you please, I have no objection." Jiang Xue didn’t care about this. After discussing Lu Ling, Jiang Xue then asked what mission Mu Qiancheng was on.

Since the mission was confidential, Mu Qiancheng didn’t elaborate much but did tell Jiang Xue he had seen Cheng Li.

"What, Cheng Li was trafficked? No way. She’s no fool; how could she get trafficked?" Jiang Xue was skeptical, as Cheng Li was a bit cunning and had always tricked others; when did she get tricked by someone else?

"It’s true, I saw it with my own eyes," Mu Qiancheng said. Yet, Jiang Xue still found it hard to believe, because Lu Ling was brought away by Old Jiang, claiming she was the daughter of the Jiang family.

If that’s the case, how could Cheng Li be trafficked? She should be enjoying her life. Jiang Xue thought this way because she had no idea about the happenings in the Jiang family. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Mu Qiancheng, having heard something, said to Jiang Xue, "I suspect someone set this up."
