"Let's give it a try."
Ji Xi also stood up. She asked Li Weixi to get the bedsheets and she went to open the window. However, when she went to the window and twisted the handle, she frowned and said, "Don't bother. The window won't open."
"Huh?" Li Weixi, who was looking for a pen, was stunned. She hurried over and tried to open the window with Ji Xi. However, after a few tries, the window still did not move. She was also discouraged.
"You are so considerate." Ji Xi said coldly, "It seems that they won't let us run away easily when they deliver the food later."
Li Weixi hesitated and said, "But this is our best idea. What if they don't deliver the food?"
"They won't." Ji Xi said firmly, "With you here, Chu Xi won't leave us alone. It seems that we can only wait for someone to save us."
Li Weixi pursed her lips and glanced around the room again. Finally, she gave up. However, compared to before, she was not afraid this time.
The two of them could do nothing but watch TV in the room.
At 9: 30 PM, there was a slight noise at the door. Li Weixi and Ji Xi looked at each other and knew that the person who delivered the food had arrived.
The door was opened and three bodyguards walked in. They put the food on the table and were about to leave.
Li Weixi stopped them. "Wait a minute, can I see Chu Xi?"
The bodyguard said coldly, "Miss will come to you."
"Okay." Li Weixi said helplessly, "Then can you buy us two sets of clothes? These clothes are too uncomfortable to wear. "
Seeing the bodyguard frown impatiently, Li Weixi added, "My stomach is a little uncomfortable."
The bodyguard took a deep look at her stomach before nodding slowly. "I'll ask Miss Chu for instructions."
While Li Weixi was fighting with the bodyguards, Ji Xi glanced outside and saw many bodyguards standing at the door. She knew that they couldn't escape, so she shook her head gently at Li Weixi. The latter understood and stopped stalling for time with the bodyguards.
After the group of people left, the two of them gave up on the idea of escaping on their own.
"This Chu Xi is really wary of us." Li Weixi said as he opened the breakfast bag. There was a hint of complaint in his tone. "Forget it, Sister An Xi, let's eat first."
Ji Xi watched her share the breakfast. She picked up the soy milk and drank it. She couldn't help looking at the door.
Li Weixi noticed her gaze and waved his hand in front of her. "What's wrong? Sister An Xi? "
"Nothing. I'm thinking if there's any other way," Ji Xi said calmly with a thoughtful look in her eyes.
Li Weixi didn't want to disturb her anymore. He switched the TV to the news channel. A piece of news happened to be broadcast and caught his attention.
Li Weixi patted Ji Xi and pointed at the TV. "Look, it's about Chu Xi."
Ji Xi also looked over. It was about Lin Yi and Lu Luan working together to attack the Chu family.
Ji Xi frowned. "Their actions are a little too big. If they agitate Chu Xi, you might be in danger too."
Li Weixi couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Compared to herself, she was more worried about the safety of the child in her stomach. She had been pregnant for five months and she was afraid that she would lose the child if she wasn't careful.
She covered her stomach and her body trembled.
Ji Xi realized that her words had made Li Weixi fearful, so she said, "That's only a possibility. If Chu Xi is smart enough, she won't do anything to you now."
"What about you?" Li Weixi looked at her worriedly. "This matter will undoubtedly anger Chu Xi. If she doesn't do anything to me, she will vent all her anger on you. If she acts impulsively and …"
Ji Xi smiled faintly. "Let nature take its course. I can only blame myself for being unlucky."
"How can you say that?" Li Weixi felt a little conflicted. She regretted telling Ji Xi that Roman had leaked the secret in advance. Perhaps Ji Xi would have been prepared.
The two of them silently watched the latest developments on the news. They were both in a bad mood.
At noon, the bodyguard came to bring them food and clothes again.
After eating and changing, Li Weixi felt sleepy again. She wanted to stay up for a while longer, but she couldn't take it anymore and fell asleep.
Chu Xi didn't appear for the whole day. Lin Yi and Lu Luan also explained why they wanted to take revenge on the Chu Family for the first time in the evening. They said that Chu Xi had kidnapped Lin Yi's fiancée and an important friend of Lu Luan.
Seeing the words "important friend", Ji Anxi's lips curved into a sarcastic smile.
Li Weixi asked her, "If Lu Luan confesses to you after this, will you be with him?"
"No." Ji Xi said decisively. "He didn't believe me before. After we met again, he kept trying to make me sad. How can I forgive him?"
Li Weixi fell silent.
The next morning, they finally saw Chu Xi.
It had only been a day since they last saw each other, but Chu Xi looked so haggard, but the anger on her face was terrifying.
"Bitch."
She raised her hand and slapped Ji Xi's face. "It's all because of you. Now Lu Luan has called off the engagement with me. Are you happy now?"
"You reap what you sow." Ji Xi looked at her coldly. The pain on her face made her frown.
Li Weixi tugged at her and told her to stop talking. She stood in front of her and looked at Chu Xi. "Chu Xi, I know you did this because you couldn't think straight. If you let us go, I can persuade Lin Yi to let your family off and ask Lin Yi to persuade Old Master Lu to reinstate your engagement."
"Sounds like a good idea." Chu Xi smiled coldly. "But I know Lu Luan too well. He won't change his mind. What's more, after this, there will be no one in the Chu family that he will like."
Li Weixi saw that she was still thinking clearly, so she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She continued, "How do you know if you don't try? At least you still have some hope. But if you insist on doing things your own way, you won't get anything."
"It's none of your business." Chu Xi said coldly. "You'd better stay out of my business. Now you're in my hands. You're a bargaining chip to negotiate with Lin Yi. I won't touch you, so you'd better stay aside, in case I get angry and hit you too."
"Sissi, get out of the way," Ji Xi said. "You got involved in this by accident. Don't interfere anymore."
"But …"
"Get out of the way." Ji Xi pushed her onto the bed and looked at Chu Xi. "You're so vicious. It's normal that you can't win his heart. You have no reason to blame others."
"Slap!"
