"Who's there!"

The man heard the rustles from the porch and was alarmed. Then, he relaxed when he thought that Xuan Yi must have been hiding there.

Smiling wickedly as he walked to the curtains, he laughed at her foolishness, "If you had just stayed quiet, you might have even avoided my punishment. Too bad for you, Miss Xuan, you'll have to be punished for hiding from me."

The man planned what he would do to Xuan Yi once he captured her. He will tie her to the bed and tell her what it means to tether between heaven and hell. Then, when she can't hold it any longer, she'll be forced to beg him to take her. But he wouldn't do it. He'll take her slowly and painfully.historical

He'll allow the two guards who were sent to help him find her to take turns and use her like a blowup sex toy. Then, when she's no longer able to think, he'll take her over and over again. Then, do it again the following day and make a public show of her to everyone. It was the perfect punishment that the man could think of.

He was just a few feet away from the curtains. The room was designed with a bed and a bathroom. And the bed was separated from the porch with a glass sliding door. However, the man only found out about it when he heard the sound coming from that direction because Qing Li didn't give them enough time to explore the entire villa.

Just thinking about the terror that washed over Xuan Yi's entire body once he parted the curtains, an exciting thrill shot up his spine to his backbone and stayed on his crotch.

He taunted with a creepy smile: "My little bird, don't hide anymore. It's useless anyway."

But nobody responded to him, nor did he hear the rustling sound again.

With a frown, the man reached out his hand and lifted the curtain, expecting Xuan Yi's pretty face colored with the most attractive paleness and fear across it.

But, what the man expected as he parted the curtain didn't happen. On the spot where he heard the sound earlier, a man taller than him by two heads and gold eyes stared at him with a cruel smile.

Then, before the man could say anything, his neck was grabbed, and another hand covered his mouth, muffling his screams.

...

Seeing the man who terrorized her being strangled in front of her, Xuan Yi stepped back in fear. It was a different kind of fear she felt toward the masked man. It was the fear you'd feel when you're close to death.

She had been holding her breath earlier and praying that someone could save her. But she didn't expect that it would be Ran Xueyi, her manager, and a mystery man whose face was too handsome contrary to his ruthless action.

"You... who are you?" Xuan Yi couldn't help but ask, even though she was so scared.

But instead of hearing the man answer, Ran Xueyi ignored her question and said, "Let's not stay here. We should go to a more secluded place and wait for help to come."

Adelle: "What about him? Should we bring him with us?"

Adelle kept her voice leveled, but she couldn't stop her hands from shaking. It was the first time she saw the Big Boss taking action. She had already expected Song Yu Han to be ruthless and cold, but who forgot to mention that he's actually a psychotic man who grabs other people's necks as if he's shaking their hands on their first meeting?

Ran Xueyi shook her head: "Just knock him out, Yu Han. It'll cause even more problems for us to take care of if we take him with us."

"Or... we can take him with us and use him as a hostage," Song Yu Han suggested casually.

Ran Xueyi considered it for a moment. If they took the man with them, they could use him as a hostage to threaten the organizer. Knowing from her past experience, the organizer put great importance on these people's lives.

But...

Ran Xueyi shook her head again and told him, "No. Let's not."

"Why?"

Ran Xueyi glanced at the watch the man wore around his left hand: "Because no one can carry him to our destination. Besides, he must have a tracker in his body. If we bring him with us, they'll find us sooner."

Once the man wakes up, he'll become a problem when they move around and slow them down.

"Alright."

Song Yu Han agreed with her without hesitation. What his wife says is always right. Though it was too bad, he couldn't take his time to make the man suffer on behalf of the people who dragged Ran Xueyi to that island.

Well, he can always go and find those bastards.

For now, they can live a day more...

Song Yu Han knocked the man out and tied him up. Then he pulled Ran Xueyi to move forward. An hour had passed since they arrived there, and it was still 10 in the morning. Unless they can't leave there tonight, Guo Yun will immediately sense something terrible has happened and find them.

But for now, they can only rely on themselves until help can arrive.

That was the plan...

But Song Yu Han wanted to do something else. These people hadn't realized they had kept a real dragon inside their cage. And they will never know what struck them when the whole place burns down to the ground.

After they left the porch, the two guards called to help the man finally arrive. But they saw no one inside the room. They were about to leave when a groan sounded from inside, and they found the man tied up on the ground.

"Sir!"

The guards surrounded him while one of them reported their discovery to Qing Li.

Inside the monitoring room, Qing Li's eyes wholly iced over.
