295: Chapter 295 Zhou Kai, listen to me, tie a knot that will never break.

Zhou Kai had already picked up the rope and walked over to Yang Ningcong, but he didn't immediately start tying him up.

"Young Master Yang, I'm sorry."

Yang Ningcong's arms were still held stiffly in front of him with his wrists pressed together.

That look of unyielding resolve had been held for nearly twenty seconds and was already beginning to slump.

"Although right now I still feel pretty..." Zhou Kai scratched the back of his head, unable to find the right word.

He wanted to say he couldn't bear to part with him.

After all, just moments ago, the two of them had been squatting in a corner chatting for nearly an hour, ranging from the international situation to foreign young models, and from the Eight Great Hutongs to Las Vegas.

Read Taiwan novels easily.

For as long as Zhou Kai could remember, this was the first time he had ever met a wealthy young master worth tens of millions.

"But you don't have to be too scared either." Zhou Kai changed phrasing.

"Brother Fan's speed and ability are something you witnessed with your own eyes last night."

Zhou Kai patted Yang Ningcong on the back, "I believe Brother Fan will definitely be able to guarantee your personal safety."

Even he felt these words sounded a bit hollow.

Yang Ningcong sneered, the corners of his mouth turning down into a grimace, "Bullshit."

"If Lin Fan is really that amazing, why don't you guys go up yourselves?"

He pulled back his arms, huddled his entire body back up, and buried his head between his knees.

"Making me go to my death while you guys watch the fun in the cave, it's easy for you to say."

Zhou Kai opened his mouth, but was choked back.

Indeed, he couldn't answer.

Because the answer was too simple: they were useful to Lin Fan, whereas Yang Ningcong was useless.

But saying those words out loud was too cruel, and Zhou Kai's skin wasn't thick enough for that yet.

Yang Ningcong raised his face from between the gaps of his knees and glanced at Zhou Kai.

"Zhou Kai."

"Hmm?"

"In the past, the people I could sit down and drink tea and chat with had a net worth of at least nine figures." Yang Ningcong swallowed a mouthful of saliva, "I didn't expect someone like you... a bottom-tier laborer, to actually be quite interesting."

A flood of mixed emotions washed over Zhou Kai's heart.

"If I survive this catastrophe," Yang Ningcong sniffled, "those foreign models I told you about earlier, I'll arrange ten of them for you."

"Are ten enough? No, twenty. Anyone over one meter seventy-five, blondes and brunettes, take your pick."

Zhou Kai's lips trembled slightly.

He stayed squatting without moving, gripping the rope tightly in his hands and rubbing it over and over again.

After two seconds, he gritted his teeth and slipped the rope onto Yang Ningcong's wrists.

"Young Master Yang, bear with it. I'll try to tie a slipknot..."

"What slipknot?" Liu Feifei stepped forward, "What if this rich second generation runs away before that monster even gets close?"

"Zhou Kai, listen to me, tie a dead knot and tie it tighter."

Yang Ningcong didn't speak anymore; dead knot or slipknot didn't matter anymore, anyway, he was completely doomed no matter what.

"Wait a minute."

Lin Fan's voice came from behind.

Zhou Kai turned his head back. The rope had just touched the skin of Yang Ningcong's wrists and hadn't even made the first full wrap yet.

Lin Fan was leaning against the stone wall, his gaze not on Yang Ningcong, but looking at Xu Zhixia.

"Your plan can work."

"But there is a problem."

"Last time that monster entered the rock fissure, both Yang Ningcong and Anan were inside."

"Yang Ningcong had passed out, yet it didn't touch Yang Ningcong at all and instead carried away Anan."

"Yesterday, perhaps it was also because it saw Qingxue and you that it crawled out of the woods."

No one in the cave made a sound.

"Both times it was a woman."

"It is more interested in female targets. If we just place Yang Ningcong there, that thing might not take the bait. If it doesn't come, we'll waste a whole night for nothing and also alert the enemy."

He raised his head and looked at Yang Ningcong.

"To be safe, the bait has to be a woman."

As these words fell, the air in the Karst Cave was sucked away in an instant.

Yang Ningcong was stunned for a beat.

Then his entire body sprang up, the rope sliding off his wrists and slapping against his thighs.

"Right! I also think that makes sense!"

The previous look of despair vanished into thin air, and the rich second generation was dragged down from the guillotine, fully resurrected with full health.

"I told you so! It didn't touch me the whole night I was in that rock fissure! Isn't that obvious? It doesn't capture men!"

He scrambled and dashed over to Zhou Kai's side, putting one hand on Zhou Kai's shoulder.

"What are you standing there stunned for?"

Yang Ningcong jutted his chin toward Liu Feifei's direction.

"Hurry up and tie her up."

Liu Feifei's face turned pale inch by inch.

Lin Fan's words were already very clear: a woman was needed to act as bait, and as for which woman, it would definitely be her.

She was definitely not someone who would just surrender without a fight; no matter what, she had to fight for herself.

If she were really tied up down there, Lin Fan certainly wouldn't risk his life to save her the way he saved Su Qingxue yesterday.

"What... what kind of nonsense are you talking about?" Liu Feifei shrieked, Her voice was completely hoarse., "Why should it be me!"

"If not you, could it be Qingxue, Xu Zhixia, or this silly girl?"

Yang Ningcong ruthlessly snapped back.

Liu Feifei breathed heavily and turned to look at Zhou Kai.

That was the only life-saving straw she could grasp right now.

Liu Feifei crawled over using both hands and feet, and tightly hugged Zhou Kai's thigh.

"Zhou Kai! Help me say something!"

"I can't go!"

"Your foot isn't better yet, moving around is completely inconvenient!"

Liu Feifei tilted her head up, "I need to stay behind to take care of you!"

"Every day you need to drink water, eat, and change your dressings; you can't do without me!"

"If I go, who will look after you? What will you do if I leave!"

Zhou Kai lowered his head to look at Liu Feifei, who was clutching his thigh, the expression on his face twisting into a knot.

He wanted to push her away.

But Liu Feifei had truly been serving him over this period of time. Changing dressings, feeding him water—even with Lin Fan's armed suppression, she hadn't shirked a single chore that needed to be done.

"Brother Fan..." Zhou Kai turned his head, his throat dry and hoarse.
