After rebirth, my elder sister wants to steal my husband!

Chapter 261 Scare

The night was as dark as ink, deep and heavy, covering this ancient and solemn mansion. The lights inside the mansion were dim, with mottled light and shadows, but outside the mansion, it was dark and silent. Lu Zhiran sat on the high wall, her heartbeat was as rapid as a drum, but she tried to maintain her calmness on the surface.

The moonlight shines on her body, outlining her slender figure. She is wearing a light blue dress, the hem of her skirt fluttering in the wind, like a fairy descending to earth. Her face is pure and elegant, and her eyes are as deep as autumn water, but at this moment they are shining with a determined light.

Below the wall, a group of men in black lined up neatly. They were wearing black cloaks, revealing only their cold eyes. The leading man in black was tall and had a stern face. His eyes were like knives, shooting straight at Lu Zhiran on the top of the wall.

Lu Zhiran took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She knew she couldn't show any fear, otherwise it would only make the men in black more arrogant. She raised her head and met the cold gaze of the man in black, and said in a clear and firm voice: "Why should I run away? I didn't do anything wrong!"

The man in black sneered, his voice hoarse and harsh: "Our young master wants to arrest you, no matter whether you have done anything wrong or not?" His words were full of unquestionable arrogance, as if everything he said was natural and right.

Lu Zhiran's heart sank suddenly. She knew that these people must have been sent by the Ding Mansion to hunt her down. She couldn't help but recall the various grievances and entanglements with Ding Liang, and an indescribable emotion surged in her heart.

She took a deep breath and tried to keep herself calm.

At this time, Ding Liang came slowly with a torch in hand. He was wearing a brocade robe, and his face was handsome and indifferent. Seeing Lu Zhiran sitting on the wall, he sneered: "Lu Zhiran, you are quite good at escaping!"

Lu Zhiran looked at Ding Liang's hateful face and wanted to rush up and tear it to pieces.

This damn bitch!

Lu Zhiran sneered and said provocatively: “You just found out today!”

Humph, you are still being stubborn.

Ding Liang was almost laughing at Lu Zhiran's anger.

"Get that woman down for me."

Ding Liang said coldly.

Lu Zhiran panicked because these people were coming to arrest him.

Her feet suddenly slipped and she lost her balance.

"Ah——" Lu Zhiran screamed in terror and fell heavily against the wall. She felt a sharp pain coming from all over her body, as if countless needles were piercing her skin. She struggled to stand up, but found that her limbs had lost strength.

"Lu Zhiran!" Ding Liang's voice echoed in the night sky, full of surprise and panic.

He led his men to Lu Zhiran's side quickly and surrounded her.

Lu Zhiran looked up and saw a mocking smile on Ding Liang's stern face. She felt a strong sense of humiliation in her heart. She hated herself for being so careless and for running away. However, things had come to this point, and she could only accept reality helplessly.

"Ding Liang, please let me go." There was a hint of begging in Lu Zhiran's voice. She knew she couldn't compete with Ding Liang, but she still didn't want to succumb to fate.

"Let you go?" Ding Liang sneered, "Why do you think I went to so much trouble to catch you? I'm telling you, don't even think about escaping again!"

Lu Zhiran closed his eyes, not wanting to face this cruel reality for the time being.

She knew she had no way to escape. She could only accept this cruel reality silently and let Ding Liang take her away.

The night deepened, and the moonlight became dimmer. Lu Zhiran was taken away by Ding Liang and his group, heading towards an unknown distance. Her heart was filled with despair and helplessness, but she knew she had to face it all with strength. Because she knew that only in this way could she have a chance to regain her freedom.

Along the way, Ding Liang did not say a word to Lu Zhiran. His eyes were always cold and deep, as if he wanted to see through Lu Zhiran's heart. Lu Zhiran also remained silent. She did not want to have any communication with Ding Liang, and she did not want to fall into his control again.

Finally, they arrived at a quiet manor. The manor was shaded by green trees and fragrant with flowers, as if it was a paradise. However, for Lu Zhiran, this place was a prison. She was taken by Ding Liang into a secret room deep in the manor, which was dark, damp, and full of suffocating depression.

Lu Zhiran was tied tightly to a chair, her heart filled with fear and anxiety. She knew that she had completely lost her freedom and could only spend the rest of her life in this secret room. However, she did not give up hope, she believed that one day she would find a chance to regain her freedom.

At this moment, Ding Liang suddenly walked into the secret room. His eyes swept over Lu Zhiran, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Lu Zhiran, do you know why I brought you here?" There was a hint of amusement in Ding Liang's voice.

Lu Zhiran did not answer. She just stared at Ding Liang silently, her eyes full of vigilance and hostility.

"Let me tell you," Ding Liang continued, "this is the cage I prepared for you. You will spend the rest of your life here. But don't worry, I will take good care of you."

Lu Zhiran's heart tightened. She didn't want to spend the rest of her life here. However, she knew that she was powerless to resist. She could only silently endure all the torture and humiliation.

"Ding Liang, is it fun for you to do this?" Lu Zhiran suddenly asked, "You will only hate you more if you do this."

Ding Liang was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Lu Zhiran to say that. He looked at Lu Zhiran deeply, then turned and left the secret room.

The secret room once again fell into deathly silence.

Lu Zhiran suddenly became a little flustered.

Ding Liang walked out and Zhang Xiangxiu was waiting for him outside.

"Why bother scaring Lu Zhiran like that?"

Zhang Xiangxiu sighed and said, to be honest, when she saw Lu Zhiran's miserable appearance just now, she felt quite sorry for him.

Ding Liang sneered, "If you don't scare her, she'll run away again next time!"
