Chapter 309 (2/2)
These people were naturally Ye Zhiqing and the Light Riders. Not sure if it was the heavens who arranged for her to meet Ye LAng at this moment.
At this point, Ye Zhiqing knew that there were more and more men after her, and they were getting closer too. She had underestimated the capabilities of these riders too, she felt like her plan to leave this place was about to fail very soon.
She was looking for another way out, and it was at this point she saw Ye Lang, who had broken into a jog, and Little Xin…
It was a moonless night so they were all relying on starlight, and the area didn’t have good lighting either. She didn’t see Ye Lang’s face clearly. If she did, she wouldn’t have to run because everything would’ve been clear.
This was how the misunderstanding started. Ye Zhiqing wanted to hold Ye Lang hostage. As for Little Xin, Ye Zhiqing didn’t notice nor cared…
Ye Zhiqing flew at Ye Lang, one hand ready to grab him…
Ye Lang was still jogging forward when he turned to see Ye Zhiqing flying towards him. He was stunned for a moment, then continued heading forward…
The next moment, she caught him. With a sword at his neck, Ye Zhiqing was behind him, slowly stepping backwards.
It would have been easy to shake off Ye Zhiqing if he wanted to. And even if he couldn’t shake her off, he could let Little Xin attack her. However, he seemed to know Ye Zhiqing was his cousin- at least he had a feeling- so he didn’t move. He let himself be Ye Zhiqing’s hostage.
At this point, he was thinking, ‘what game is this? Is jumping around on the roof THAT fun?’
He didn’t seem to notice what was going on.
“Let him go,” the riders stopped far away, in fear of provoking Ye Zhiqing.
“Move or I kill him,” Ye Zhiqing understood she’d caught the right person. This was an important character here. Not only is this the ticket for her to leave, perhaps she could exchange him for the three girls.
And as they came to a stalemate, Ye Lang screamed.
“Ahhhh… Thief…. Help…”
“...”
Sir, you’re a little too late. Also, why did you let her catch you…
That was also their fault. They let a person enter the premises, even holding the kid as a hostage. However, what they didn’t understand was…
“Sir, it’s late. Why are you out?”
“I wanted to pee…”
“...”
