Chapter 2 The Definition Of A Good Person

Nancy stared at the man beside her with a flattering smile. "Sir, you have a noble appearance and a kind heart. The moment I came in, I already thought that you were a good man for you reek of that kind of aura."

"Are you kidding me? A good man, you say?" Mond found what Nancy said ridiculous. He gave a short smirk and went back to his default and calm expression almost instantly.

As a response, the woman flapped her eyelashes. She gazed at Mond with her perfectly clear eyes and said, "Yes, sir. I thought you were a good man as soon as I came here. I know there is goodness in you. And since you are a good man, you won't refuse to help me, right? Please, I beg you. If you can save me today, I will give you whatever you want.

Even if it means being your girlfriend," Nancy blurted out as she gritted her teeth.

Hearing her words, Mond's lips curved upward into a sly smile. He glanced at the woman intently with his dark eyes, making the woman take a few steps back and put her hand into the car's door.

At that moment, Nancy's mind was in a huge mess. She didn't even know whether she should go or not.

"Do you want to live or die?" threatened Nancy, as she took out a fruit knife from her bag and placed it on Mond's neck.

She didn't know what she was doing at that moment. She could even hurt her hand in peeling an apple, let alone kill someone.

Seeing this, Ron and Charlie, who were sitting in the front seats of the car, immediately took out their guns from their bags. However, Mond stopped them before they could do anything rash. Ron observed his actions and immediately thought that Mond must have had his own thoughts regarding the matter. Ron turned his head, but his eyes had always been plastered on the rear-view mirror to guard against Nancy.

"Kill me? Don't be so foolish. Do you think you can survive? Or do you think your legs are faster than the car chasing you from behind?" Mond's lukewarm voice, like an old jar of good and fine wine, echoed inside the car.

Meanwhile, Nancy's hand that held the knife could not help but tremble in fear. Even before Mond could do anything, the knife already fell onto the carriage. Sitting there like a statue, she still held the previous position.

"I... Okay, I'll tell you why I am here, but you will have to escort me out of the city." Then her eyes immediately showed sadness. She even seemed to be on the verge of bursting into tears. At that moment, her pretty face turned very miserable that no man would refuse to help her.

Mond, meanwhile, was caught off guard as he didn't know the strange feeling lingering in his heart. 'Was she trying other tricks? Could this be a honey trap? She's really an interesting girl!' Mond thought.

When Nancy saw Mond didn't take any action, she thought that she had already succeeded with her plan. With this, she pinched herself heartlessly and tears started to fall like pearls. She did look pathetic, but Mond's eyes were plastered onto the little shtick Nancy just did.

Mond squinted his eyes as he looked directly at the crying Nancy. It was strangely quiet in the carriage, and all that was heard was her sniffles from crying.

Time stood still as no one had spoken for a long time. Opening her eyes, Nancy met Mond's dangerously cold eyes that spoke indifference. Beads of cold sweat broke out in her forehead, but she could not let her nervousness take away her confidence. Soon, she mustered up her courage and said, "Sir, I'm forced to marry someone I don't even meet. Please. Can't you take pity on me?"

"Nice try. Can't you at least make up a lie that I can believe?" His voice was as hostile as before. However, there was a hint of banter in his voice. 'Is this just an illusion?' she began to wonder. In a twinkling of an eye, she saw the cruel look in Mond's eyes, and she was more sure that it was, indeed, just her illusion.

"I am not lying! How could I lie? I'm telling you nothing but the truth!" Seeing that the man did not buy her story, she tried to explain again while waving her hands in the air.

On the other hand, Ron also doubted the woman's story. As the beloved daughter of the Nie Family, several men wanted to marry her every day. But now she said she was forced to marry a stranger. How was that possible?

Afterwards, Mond took out a piece of paper and handed it over to Nancy. "Here, dry yourself with this," he said. Nancy took the paper, thanked him, and started to wipe her hair. But when she looked into his eyes this time, she noticed that something had changed.

Ron was a clever man, as he clearly understood what Mond was trying to tell them. In an instant, Ron gave Charlie a nod and the car started to go slowly along the highway.

Right after Nancy fixed her hair, she looked at Mond and continued to explain, "Sir, I'm really forced to get married! I'm telling the truth! You have no idea what I have been through. You must think that I was lying. But it's true. I am forced to marry this man in the name of Mr. Lu. What's his name? I..."

"Mond Lu."

"Yes, exactly. His name is Mond! You must know him well! He's not a man. He's just a monster. If I go there, I'll be a sheep into a tiger's mouth, and there's no place for me to escape."

It seemed that Nancy didn't notice that Mond's face darkened. She still kept on saying her narrative with her voice getting more and more agitated.

Ron looked at the rearview mirror and saw Mond's extremely unkind face. Ron felt cold as he wondered whether this woman knew what danger she was in now. She talked about her grievances and never thought that she was sitting beside the man who caused her trouble, Mond himself! Ron sighed as he got worried about Nancy who seemed to know nothing.

"Oh, and one more thing! I heard that Mond has an uncertain personality and that he might be suffering from schizophrenia! If I wake up next to him in the morning and he completely forgets what has happened last night, what should I do by then?" said Nancy. She shook her head side to side as she sighed in dismay.

"Oh, wait, there's more. I almost forgot... You know what? This Mond Lu is already twenty six years old but has no girlfriend at all. Isn't that quite abnormal for a man at his age?"

"Then how many girlfriends do you think he should have?" Ron raised his eyebrows and smirked.

Nancy frowned, turned her head and said, "Maybe about seventeen or eighteen of them! Almost every rich man I know is a playboy."

'Seventeen or eighteen girlfriends, huh.' Charlie's hand that was on the steering wheel couldn't help but tremble. 'Is she really serious? I don't know where she got that information, but her words must have shocked Mr. Mond, ' thought Charlie.

"Also, do you know that Mr. Mond is disabled?"

"Of course I know about that! It seems to be a secret that everyone in Yun City knows about." Nancy tidied her hair and looked out of the window. She coughed a few times, perhaps because it was too cold for her after getting soaked in the rain.

"I also heard that he's dumb! But I don't believe it has anything to do with him not having a girlfriend. Well, no matter how bad he is, he is rich after all! Since that, there must be women after his money," Nancy remarked.

'Does she mean that money is the only reason a woman loves me?' Mond thought to himself.

"Oh, my God! What's this? Is this some sort of a group racing?" Charlie's voice pulled the two people in the back seat right back to their consciousness. Nancy looked back, and her heart immediately clashed. She looked a little flustered.

"Driver, drive faster, please." Nancy pleaded to Charlie who sat in front of her. With a helpless look on his face, Charlie looked at Mond through the rearview mirror as he waited for further instructions. Mond nodded slightly, and Charlie drove the car at full speed, distancing the carriages of the Nie Family hundreds of meters away.

Meanwhile, as soon as the carriages had disappeared from their sight, Nancy breathed a sigh of relief and ordered, "Stop right here! Thank you."

After showing gratitude, she opened the door and prepared to get off.

"Wait!" A voice from the car tried to get her attention.

Mond slid a paper in her hand. She looked at the paper and asked, "What's this?"

"My phone number."

"Oh, I see." Nancy understood what he meant and gave him a nod. Afterwards, she took the umbrella that Ron handed her and ran away in a hurry.

Staring at Nancy's retreating back, Charlie scratched his head in confusion and thought, 'I couldn't really figure out Mr. Mond's way of handling things recently. I mean, this is not his style!'

"Investigate her!" Mond's voice was still as cold as ever. In no time, he opened the door of the car and hurriedly sat back inside.
