Chapter Eleven
The roohtly tre
They had taken Shu Nian to the quiet villa here so he could recuperate properly I was just conveniently taken as well
My head wound had been bandaged, no longer bleeding This was thanks to Ke Luo, who still had soh they had brought , they had coh examination
My stomach felt uncomfortable, but noasn’t the time to worry about it No matter how my insides suffer, they’d still be in the sa out
At least co this bit of physical pain was nothing but a piece of cake
Pulling ether, I tried to cal
Maybe the situation wasn’t that bad I was violently tossed in here, but this wasn’t some prison cell It was just an ordinary study room There was even wine in the cabinet Of course, there wereoutside the door, but Ke Luo didn’t even so much as tie me up I could move freely in the room
The swelling ofwas hard to bear There was no end to the panic in my heart I felt a cold sweat drip downfor a moment
My o open the cabinet I selected a bottle of wine according to the year Since a glass was readily-available as well, I helped myself to a drink
On one hand, it settled my mind; on the other hand, I seemed to have really run into bad luck I’ll let ain
The door was pushed open The tall young man took a couple steps inside, and his eyes widened
“You…”
He probably didn’t even expect ’s stash when death was so near at hand He frowned at once
“I need an explanation”
“Okay” Luckily, he still offered me a chance to explain
“Why do it?”
“I didn’t rape him,” I replied quickly
“I want to knohy you were a spy Who are you working for?”
My heart suddenly sank a little I didn’t say a word
“In ay has Uncle Lu wronged you? In ay has Xiao Nian offended you? Why do that to them?”
“They didn’t do anything What about you? You dare say that you don’t owe htest bit of debt?”
Ke Luo was taken aback “Then why didn’t you just direct it at me?”
How could I say so ridiculous as “I couldn’t bear to?” I spread out ”
Ke Luo glared at me coldly I could feel a cold chill run down my spine Never before had I wished like now that he’d wholeheartedly care for Shu Nian, barely having the time to spare a look at me
“Regarding the co and await his decision Don’t interfere Concerning Shu Nian, I rong first I apologize to hi as not a hair on his head was harmed,” I paused and smiled, “and also our…friendshi+p all these years”
Ke Luo watched me
I poured a glass, raised it toward him, and humbly said, “Just consider it as a plea from Uncle Lee Cut me some slack, and let’s make peace”
Ke Luo stared at lass from my hand at last despite his emotionless face
I immediately felt an incredible sense of relief But the next instant, he threw the entire glass of wine in my face
I was stunned for a long while as the wine ran down my chin I heard a knock outside the door
“Come in”
An indistinct shadow appeared at the door “Master Ke, theus to hand the man over”
Ke Luo glanced at me, then turned his head “Tell theht him, so he would naturally be at my disposal”
“But they’re extremely persistent…”
“assure Xie Yan that I will deal with it”
My one heart sank
I could i and deep his hatred toward me was, but I still had no idea as to how he’ll “deal” with me
The house becah, heavy breathing
Soon there was another knock at the door Obviously the Xie family there won’t leave the matter at that if they can’t personally “deal” with me
“Master Ke, it’s better that you personally…”
Ke Luo frowned When he turned around, his face bore the striking reserimness
As soon as he walked out, he locked the door froh my entire body
Xie Yan possibly had to hack me to pieces before his hatred was quenched It would probably be much more so for Ke Luo
My teeth slightly chattered I ads were uncertain like this, how could I resign ive me a quick relief
Taking advantage of the two men’s dispute as to ould handle me, I stood up and looked down from the
What luck, it was only the third floor The antique European hich was originally suitable for ladies to greet their brave lovers, was now facilitating me to run for my life
Withto reach a ledge to step on, I heard talking outside the door
My heart raced
Once they realized no one was in the rooet about escaping
As soon as I stepped on the second floorsill, I quit dawdling and jumped directly down
I slightly crouched when I hit the ground Apart from the small pain in , I’d scraped through tough conditions Now that I was old, Itoo clumsy
This villa was so huge that it’s abnorht I’d been discovered and had aliven up hope
But when I went through the uard wasn't suspicious of h
I didn’t even have the ti the nerve to delay, I hurried off
Devastated, I hid for several days, living in a complete mess
Of course I didn’t have the guts to return to the apartency cash and ATM cards for use in another location I just never expected I’d put theood use so soon I couldn’t help but repeatedly curse myself unlucky
I regretted my indecisiveness At that time, there was no need for me to meddle with thatboth the Xie family and the Lu family
I didn’t lack the , I was like a rat, hiding and scurrying about For the sake of safety, I could only eat and sleep in poor rundown places Upon seeing a familiar person, I would walk off with my head turned away
I couldn’t stay in T city for the ti I should move away from here and lie low until the fuss died down
But to run away fro to be that easy I didn’t have the nerve to go back to the apartht about it, theShan What's more, he was an enee amount of money
Tong Shan could actually be considered loyal to his coiven him a call, a car came to pick me up
I didn’t letShan It’s just that I kneouldn’t do hiood for me to be captured
Even though Tong Shan never exposed his face, it was clear this tiht Sooner or later, it would descend on him It wouldn’t be that easy to wash his hands froot rid of me, he wouldn’t be able to make it up to both families
Since we’re on the saht as well help me Naturally, I’d be of use to him in the future
I probably calculated the rightShan treated ed a safe place for reed to help me set up new paperwork and passport
I didn’t want to exaggerate it sothese people, Ke Luo was searching everywhere forme out
Xie Yan had already given up and returned to S city, yet Ke Luo still wouldn’t let me off so easily He relentlessly pursued me
What for? Did he really hate me that much?
For a dog that had run off after being beaten so much, he should have some compassion
Or perhaps I should never have had any expectations on Ke Luo fro?
“Tong, sir, you asked for me?”
“My goodness, co Shan greeted rin”
“Has the passport arrived yet?”
“No need to rush Sit, sit Young people must have patience”
To have to wag eezer and be mixed into this, I didn’t have just any ordinary bad luck I forced myself to sit down Several days had already passed, and I still hadn’t received the required passport I’d be lying if I claimed that I wasn’t uneasy about it
“Tong, sir, honestly speaking, it’s not that difficult to prepare theht?”
“Why? Don’t you trustShan chuckled “Well, you know, they’ve nearly overturned the heavens searching for you”
I didn’t o find Ke Luo and ask hier would subside Carry out the top ten tortures?
To hih to bring about the tiniest bit of pity?
My chest constricted In oneShan had poured for me
Just as I wanted to drink a second glass, the glass slipped from my hand and shattered on the floor I slowly looked at my own hand, and my head swirled
damn it
“Don’t blaue and distant “In fact, the Lu faht corner If I don’t hand you over, h It’ll be difficult for everyone…”
bastard
This old geezer really was an asshole
