730 A Million Times for You 92 (1/2)

However, he could not do that.

He looked away reluctantly.

He prayed fervently in his heart that she would turn her head around.

Perhaps he had been wishing for it so hard that An Xiaoning really stopped in her tracks.

She turned around for a split second and continued walking forward.

The leader heaved a long sigh. Just as he raised his head, Jin Qingyan said, ”I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Walker.”

An Xiaoning again stopped walking abruptly and turned to stare at Jin Qingyan in shock. Although he looked like a complete stranger, she felt that his voice was all too familiar!

Tears welled up in An Xiaoning's eyes the moment she saw his figure. She then stared at him longingly before continuing in her path.

Jin Qingyan purposefully lowered his voice when he spoke, so as to make it sound much deeper.

Having gotten used to hearing his voice long ago, An Xiaoning could recognize his voice right away, regardless of how much he tried to keep it low.

However, it was different for Pei Yi, who had only spoken to Jin Qingyan once over the phone. Although he found it a little familiar, he did not dwell much on it. He thought to himself that Jin Qingyan must be thinking that An Xiaoning was dead and wouldn't have the audacity to risk his life by sneaking in here.

After they left, the petrified leader yelled, ”Who told you to report your name earlier? You dimwit. Can't you wait for Ancestor to leave before you speak!?! You idiot!”

Jin Qingyan did not respond and hung his head low, as if he were a humble greenhorn getting reprimanded silently.

The leader did not stop and instead took a deep breath before warning him again, ”You must be cautious and watch every move of yours here. Otherwise, you'll die really soon. You must learn to act appropriately and think twice before you speak. Fortunately, Ancestor did not get riled up just now. Otherwise, you'll have a hard time, lad.”

Jin Qingyan expressed assent.

”Okay, follow me to your dormitory now.”

Jin Qingyan looked behind him again to see that they had already left.

Is she going to the hot spring with Pei Yi? he wondered to himself.

Would that man touch her?

What was he trying to do by falsifying the video of her staged execution? Did he fall for her?

At this point, Jin Qingyan truly realized that nothing else mattered more than her being alive.

There were two tubs in the hot spring, which were separated by a pearl partition blind. While getting inside the water, An Xiaoning constantly recalled the event that just took place earlier.

It felt just like a dream.

She had heard his voice and seen his figure.

He's here.

He must have come here for me.

How did he know that my death was staged and falsified?

An Xiaoning could not help but feel overwhelmed with a mix of emotions.

God knows how elated she was the moment she heard his voice.

For the first time after their divorce, An Xiaoning wanted to hug him and thank him for taking the risk to enter and rescue her.

They were so close, yet so far.

However, would he get upset and leave after seeing me walk with Pei Yi? Well, he's so petty and jealous all the time.

An Xiaoning thought that it was entirely possible for him to do so. However, another voice within her assured her that Jin Qingyan was not that foolish and would still save her on account of her being the mother of his child.

An Xiaoning felt much more relieved at the thought of it.

Once the lights were switched off after they returned from the hot spring, An Xiaoning stayed awake with her eyes wide open. She thought that it was mandatory for her to try and relay a message to Jin Qingyan. However, the problem was how?
