He Jian cut his ropes very fastly without getting any cut on his hands. The girl was right in the end. They don’t have much time. What if the kidnappers came back? Standing up from the floor, he picked the iron rod lying in the room. The girl also picked one.

When they came out of the room, he unconsciously hid the girl behind her in case if someone attacked. What he did not expect was the girl behind her suddenly to come in front of him. She walked ahead without any worry.

He looked at her back with raised eyebrows.

Fastening his steps he came beside her.

‘How can he forget that children also have their dignity. Of course, she would not like him to protect her. He just had to do it silently without attracting her attention.’

As he looked around the palace to see the exit while walking with her, the girl had already walked in a certain direction. Of course, he followed her. Then finally he saw the exit.

He looked at the girl by her side with confused eyes. If she was also kidnapped like him then how can she know the way around this place? His eyes were being covered by the kidnappers when he was kidnapped so he didn’t know at all which way to go.

With his thoughts running wild in a certain direction, his blue eyes looking at the girl became very cold and sharp. But suddenly he was pulled by her behind a wall.

The girl in front of her covered his mouth tightly with his back to the wall. She pointed to him by her eyes to look sideways.

Two masculine tanned men passed by their side. When he removed his sight from them and looked back at the girl, her eyes were still on those men.

Because of the very narrow space, they were very close to each other. She felt very soft against his hard body. The right side of her temple was very close to his lips. Apart from that, her whole face was covered leaving only her eyes. Her skin was pale white and smooth.

Mo Roulan was still looking at the men who went inside. In the past life, things didn’t happen like this. They were able to escape without being noticed by anyone. The only reason she could think of was that she wasted a lot of time inside compared to the past life.

When she was cursing silently inside her heart, she felt a cold yet very soft touch on her temple. Her whole body froze and her heartbeat fastened.

With wide eyes, she turned her head in He Jian’s direction with such a fast speed that He Jian feared that her neck would get twisted.

He looked at her eyes which were wide with shock. The whole time since he first saw her, her eyes were blank. But at this moment, he felt that her eyes were very beautiful. It was not pure black but a little brown. It seemed like they were questioning him silently and asking for answers which he himself didn’t know. He just couldn’t take his sight away from her eyes.

As he continued looking into those eyes his heart started to beat like a drum.

Eighteen years old, he had never felt like this. He just couldn’t control his urge to kiss that smooth pale white skin so he did without thinking anything. In his heart, he knew that she was just a child and whatever he was doing is wrong but when he looked at those eyes the little bit of guilt instantly vanished away.

Unconsciously he raised his hand to remove the cloth covering her face.

” Brother Xia ”

Mo Roulan who was in a daze felt awakened by the shout. She removed her hand from his mouth and tried to step far away from him. But since there was no space she could not do so. Flustered by this, she heard the next words.

” Brother Xia, the boy, and that girl have escaped.”

More Men with one in the center who seemed their leader stepped inside and passed by them. Mo Roulan closed her eyes with a heavy sigh.

It will not be easy this time.

” It is not good to sigh like this at such a young age.”

The voice that fell in her ears was very gentle. She didn’t have the guts to look at him after the earlier incident so she just ignored his words and tried to think of something else.

Only if she had looked at him she would have seen how gentle and affectionate his gaze was when he looked at her.
