47: Chapter 47 The Beauty's Escape

"Mm..."

Just then, Manager let out a soft moan and slowly opened her eyes.

"Mengmeng?"

"Manager... Manager..."

Manager looked at Wu Mengmeng, who was wearing pajamas, feeling a bit dazed.

The next second, the events of last night in her living room gradually surfaced in her mind.

"Mengmeng, where... where is this? Were you kidnapped by Xu Que too?"

"This is my..."

Wu Mengmeng started to say, looking around.

Seeing the unfamiliar environment, the word "home" got stuck in her throat.

"Where... where is this? I clearly remember sleeping at home last night!"

Wu Mengmeng didn't understand what had happened yet!

Manager's heart sank to the bottom.

She and Wu Mengmeng had actually both been kidnapped by Xu Que!

"No... I must stay calm. Xu Que isn't here right now; perhaps Mengmeng and I can escape."

Manager moved her long, beautiful legs off Wu Mengmeng's stomach, sat up, got out of bed, and began to observe the Space Capsule.

Wu Mengmeng also came to her senses, a look of panic and fear instantly appearing on her round face.

"I... I've been caught by Xu Que..."

"Waaaah~"

Wu Mengmeng curled up her legs and started sobbing in terror.

"Mengmeng, stop crying. Xu Que isn't here. Get up quickly; perhaps we can take this chance to escape."

"Gasp!"

Wu Mengmeng stopped sobbing instantly.

A glimmer of hope appeared in her eyes.

She quickly got up and walked gently to Manager's side.

"Manager, what should we do? I'll listen to you."

"Good. Follow behind me and don't make any noise."

"Mm-hmm!"

Wu Mengmeng nodded repeatedly.

"As expected of someone who can be a Manager; even after being caught by a big villain like Xu Que, she can stay this calm."

Looking at Manager's back, Wu Mengmeng felt a hint of admiration.

"A heroine among women, not letting the men surpass her—that must be the kind of woman Manager is!"

Thinking this secretly, she followed closely behind Manager out of the Space Capsule.

"Oh, Ma... Manager, what... what is this place?"

Seeing the central Spirit Spring Pool, the dozens of Space Capsules on both sides, and the vegetable garden not far behind, Wu Mengmeng couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"I suspect this is Xu Que's lair. Mengmeng, since it's still early, stay close to me and don't make a sound."

"Okay."

Wu Mengmeng nodded obediently, following Manager toward the edge of the Spirit Spring Space.

At this time, because the space had been constantly expanding, the Spirit Spring Pool was already several thousand meters away from the edge.

Therefore, the two could not see the boundary of the Spirit Spring Space.

"Wow, Manager, are... are these tomatoes and cucumbers? How can they be so big?"

In the vegetable garden, Wu Mengmeng crouched down, staring at the soccer-ball-sized tomatoes and the giant cucumbers that were as thick as an adult man's arm and a meter long, muttering to herself.

Manager was also shocked!

"Can tomatoes and cucumbers grow this big?"

"Impossible, right?"

"I've never seen this before!"

A moment later.

Coming back to her senses, she quickly pulled up Wu Mengmeng, who was squatting on the ground watching the tomatoes.

"Mengmeng, stop being curious. Let's hurry and escape before Xu Que discovers us."

"Manager, we'll definitely get tired running away. I'll pick a tomato."

Wu Mengmeng said, reaching out to pull at a tomato.

"Why... why does this tomato grow so firmly?"

Watching Wu Mengmeng struggling, Manager helplessly reached out her hands as well, grabbing the giant.

...

Thirty minutes later.

At the edge of the space.

Manager and Wu Mengmeng were each holding a giant tomato in their arms.

Both were panting, looking at the ink-colored barrier that stretched into the distance.

They were dazed, lost, and helpless...

"Ma... Manager, what... what exactly is this place?"

"I... I don't know either!"

Holding the giant tomato, Manager leaned against the ink-colored barrier and slumped onto the ground, helpless and confused.

They had been running for half a day, only to run into a giant barrier that was too high to see the top and too wide to see the end.

How could they escape?

"Screw escaping!"

Watching Manager's dejected appearance, Wu Mengmeng didn't know what to say for a moment.

She also held the giant tomato and sat down beside Manager, her back against the ink-colored barrier.

At this moment, both of them were covered in dust, looking like stranded Snow Whites!

"Manager, what do we do now?"

Wu Mengmeng asked, looking down at the giant tomato in her arms, her tone dejected.

Manager was silent for a moment, then her fighting spirit returned: "Mengmeng, let's eat some tomato first to replenish our energy. Then we'll walk along this barrier; I don't believe there's no exit."

"Okay, I'll listen to you, Manager."

"Mm, let's eat yours first; we can't waste it. Otherwise, whether we have no food or have to return to the vegetable garden, neither is a good option."

"Mm-hmm, then you take the first bite, Manager."

Manager smiled.

Even covered in dust, her stunning beauty couldn't be hidden.

"It's so big, let's eat it together. You bite that side, and I'll bite this side."

Hearing this, Wu Mengmeng was slightly stunned before nodding in agreement.

Immediately, the two began to eat, one bite after another.

"Oops!"

Wu Mengmeng and Manager looked at each other awkwardly.

They had eaten too much; the entire soccer-ball-sized tomato had been finished by the two of them.

But they couldn't be blamed—the giant tomato was just too delicious!

"Manager, should we go back and sneak another one?"

Manager glanced at the vegetable patch near the Space Capsule and shook her head gently.

"We can't risk it again. We'll save the remaining one and eat it sparingly; it should be enough to last until we escape."

"Mm-hmm, then let's go quickly!"

Manager nodded, stood up from the ground, and dusted off her bottom.

She walked along the ink-colored barrier toward the other end.

...

The beauties were still sleeping in.

Beside the mattress, near the table, Xu Que sat alone on the sofa, leisurely drinking spirit spring water.

A smile bloomed on his face.

He had already gained control over part of the Spirit Spring Space.

Now, anything that happened in the entire space could not escape his perception.

When Manager took Wu Mengmeng and escaped from the Space Capsule, Xu Que had already been secretly monitoring them.

Every move they made was clearly presented in his mind.

"Truly interesting. I wonder what they'll feel when they walk themselves to exhaustion and end up back where they started! Haha... Still thinking of escaping? Let you suffer a little first!"

Xu Que smiled.

He stood up and walked toward the Space Capsule where Lin Ruoxue lived.

At this moment, she had already woken up but hadn't gotten out of bed.

Although this space had spirit spring water and delicious fruits and vegetables, it was also a cage.

And she was the canary in the cage, with no freedom to speak of!

Just as she was staring blankly at the ceiling, Xu Que quietly walked into the bedroom.

"What are you here for?"

Lin Ruoxue turned her head to look at Xu Que, then looked away, her voice cold.

"Your husband is here to see you!"

Xu Que said, sitting on the edge of the bed.

"Heh..."

Lin Ruoxue sneered, turned on her side, back to Xu Que, and said nothing more.

Seeing this, Xu Que couldn't be bothered with small talk.

To become stronger, he wouldn't coddle anyone!
