Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 677 - 670: Deathly Unpalatable

Yao Zhiqing was taken aback by Wu Jingjing’s harsh words, her face stiffening as she set down the food and stood there somewhat indecisively.

Wu Chengzu frowned, "Wu Jingjing, speak properly!"

"I am speaking properly!" Wu Jingjing glared at Wu Chengzu, "Birds of a feather flock together! What else but a slut could the woman by the side of such a drug kingpin be!"

Wu Chengzu’s hand was just about to strike but stopped mid-air, slowly curling back into a fist. He couldn’t bring himself to slap her. Bai Yiran’s words from earlier kept echoing in his mind.

He walked to the table, placed the food into a bowl, and walked over to Wu Jingjing, preparing to feed her with a spoon.

Wu Jingjing kept resisting Wu Chengzu. Even when Wu Chengzu placed the spoon near her mouth, she refused to open it.

"Wu Jingjing, you’d better open your mouth obediently, or I’ll force-feed you!" Wu Chengzu’s expression was cold and stern, not like he was joking. Wu Jingjing was detoxing and needed to be provided with food during this period to maintain her strength and fight the addiction.

Wu Chengzu forcefully pushed the spoon into Wu Jingjing’s mouth, leaving her no choice but to take a bite.

It was the first proper meal she had eaten in days, and Wu Jingjing felt a pang of sadness. During her kidnapping, though they hadn’t starved her, the food given to her was no better than dog food. Served in a filthy large bowl filled with leftovers, she would eat some when she was clear-headed, but when the drug craving hit, she couldn’t eat anything at all. Several times, she smashed the bowl, attempting suicide with the shards. But she was discovered each time, and later they started using stainless steel bowls to serve her food, making it even more like dog food.

The more Wu Jingjing thought about it, the more wronged she felt. Before she had even swallowed her food, tears began to fall.

Wu Chengzu watched with a pained heart, but continued to feed his daughter spoonful by spoonful. After eating, Wu Jingjing felt a bit sleepy. She glanced at Yao Zhiqing, who was still standing there, and said to Wu Chengzu, "Make her leave, I want to sleep!"

Yao Zhiqing gave an awkward smile and left by herself before Wu Chengzu could say anything.

Wu Jingjing’s body was tied up, unable to lie down by herself. Wu Chengzu helped her lie down, tucked her in, and just quietly watched his daughter sleep.

Bai Yiran was in her room eating. In this regard, she was very smart. From the time of her kidnapping to now, she had never neglected her own appetite. Nor did she squabble or shout with Yao Zhiqing’s people, always appearing very cooperative. This surprised Yao Zhiqing’s subordinates, as it wasn’t their first time kidnapping, and there were often women involved. But not one of them refrained from crying, making noise, or going on hunger strikes.

But this President’s wife was different. Every meal was brought up, no matter how it tasted, she ate it with relish. She neither cried nor fussed throughout the whole day, and apart from some trouble during bathroom breaks and bathing, she cooperated in every other way.

Having been bad guys for so many years, this was the first time they’d seen such a cooperative hostage. It spared them quite a bit of trouble, leading to a less strict watch compared to the beginning. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

This was exactly the result Bai Yiran wanted. She ate every meal because she needed the strength and energy for her eventual escape. She didn’t cry or make a fuss because she didn’t want to cause unnecessary harm to her body.

Most importantly, she wanted to reduce the vigilance of those watching her, thus making it easier to find a chance to escape.

Today’s dishes weren’t very tasty either, likely cooked by Yao Zhiqing herself—a complete disaster.
