244 The Lady And Lord Of Underworld (1/2)
Lei Xinyi's eyes landed on He Zheng and a question flashed in her eyes, ”How did you know where to look?”
He Zheng pursed his lips and lifted his eyes to fall on Li Yuan who was smirking at them.
It wasn't good! When the manipulative, vindictive man had asked him to give him the key saying something like 'in case of emergency', he had been blinded in wariness and handed it over to him.
Now Lei Xinyi's eyes were flashing with a warning and rage under the beds of her barely-there composure. It was retaliation, Li Yuan was punishing him for trying to firewalls.
He glared hard at the man taking amusement in his despair. Lei Xinyi wasn't letting this go, it was obvious. She never let anything slide.
He fisted his hands tightly and gritted his teeth, keeping his glare fixed on Li Yuan, ”The signal of your piercing went off in the morning and I had 'given' the key to Young Master Li so…we came here to save you.”
Lei Xinyi rolled her eyes, Now this was pretty hilarious, they came to 'save' her with what? Water balloons?
Although it was quite easy to connect the dots. There were only two keys, one Lei Xinyi had and another was with He Zheng that he had given it to Li Yuan so if the key went off it wasn't hard to guess where Lei Xinyi was.
But that was beside the point. Noticing He Zheng's glare both the ladies' eyes turned to Li Yuan.
Su Qing looked at Li Yuan menacing stance as he stood with his back to the wall he was relaxed but his aura was consuming all the calmness and then turned to Lei Xinyi in question with widened eyes with shock and horror.
When He Zheng had told him they were going to get Lei Xinyi, he said nothing about her being in the devil's den!
Su Qing head jerked to Lei Xinyi at once looking at her state to see if she had been harmed but… Lei Xinyi looked dressed rather like the lady of the manor, it was like this was all some strange alternative world! Was the Underworld King really standing in front of her?!
She gasped in horror and surprise.
Su Qing hadn't seen a lot of the man but knew he wasn't supposed to be messed with; he was a well-known tyrant! Rumors about how he gained his position as the next patriarch sent shivers down people spines. Not to mention how he had singlehandedly taken Asia by a storm when he ascended his throne! The man was scary and dangerous…and engaged!
Lei Xinyi's eyes followed her head movement; she pursed her lips then faked a smile.
She stood up and gave a hand to Su Qing and He Zheng to stand up. Li Yuan was still standing there with a slow smirk, playing his phone in his fingers.
