Night wrapped the mountain forest and every tree appeared as a spirit of the darkness, watching the humans as theyand the other, the huame in to the trees

Gu Ke-Wu had been on the chase froht There had been tracks to follow in the beginning but those had been lost later He had broken up his groups into three teams, one to the peak, one to the left of the path and the rest to the right of the path, together with him at the lead This was in the direction of Bailu Town

In his pursuit, Gu Ke-Wu had gone fro in despair as they’d lost the tracks He was dog-tired and had wasted so y but had yet to even smell Xia Lei’s fart, much less catch him and kill him off

What orse was that it had started to rain

Spring rain ca down fro water down in a continuous strearound et quickly and turned muddy There was no paved road on the mountain either, so it was slippery and one could fall badly if one were not careful An area which would have taken theer

“Young Master Wu, we…?” A bodyguard asked cautiously

“How close are they?” asked Annina nervously

“Far enough No need to worry” Xia Lei sat down and relaxed Five hundred ood rest for a few minutes

Annina leaned on Xia Lei Her skin was cold and her long legs were uncovered; they were exposed to air and rain and looked like they’d been pulled from cold water

This was the north after all and the weather was rather cold though it was spring

“I’ll give you h The cold iven et sick It’ll be fine even if I get sick,” said Annina

Xia Lei felt warm inside He pulled Annina into his arms “Sit on my lap and warm up”

Annina cli herself deep into his embrace Xia Lei’s body arm and the warmth made her much more comfortable

The first two minutes were uneventful but a small problem occurred after that

“What’s that?” Annina looked back at Xia Lei “What are you pokingabout such things There’s nothing…” said Xia Lei aardly

Annina wiggled her hips

Xia Lei hurriedly held her still “Stop Take this chance to rest”

Annina retaliated and grabbed the ‘twig’ She smirked “I knohat it is I just want to help you relax You’re too nervous”

Xia Lei couldn’t help laughing He did relax quite a bit with her teasing Women from different cultures were different indeed, and only she could do so like this so naturally It would be difficult for a Chinese woly at Xia Lei, then drew close and kissed him on the lips She needed some passion in this damned rain and forest to war-Xin suddenly woke up at that moment She propped herself up slowly and saw Xia Lei and Annina kissing next to her, then saw Sang Yue-Yue
