The twin next to the little bun spoke with undisguised disgust: "Who would want to abduct you? Have you seen yourself? We"re going to the hospital and because you were just hit with the car we"re taking you there now as well."The other twin began mumbling under his breath: "Who knows if you"re trying to scam us. You might even keep coming back to us claiming compensation and damages. You should have looked where you were going. Are your eyes for decoration? Are your eyes on top of your head? Was your ancestor a frog?"
Li Xiuying "..."
They had made it completely her fault that they had hit her with their car. They were at least partially to blame.
She looked down at herself, her black hoody was clean enough but her jeans were covered in mud and bits of who knows what. She looked up again.
Li Xiuying: "Who are you all?"
She was met with complete silence.
Li Xiuying weighed up her options.
Option one. She could try to escape but using the door handle backwards was tricky enough and the prospect of jumping out of a moving car wasn"t appealing.
Option 2. She could try and take someone hostage and tell them to stop moving the car, but she was only 5 ft 3" with stick thin arm, no weapons and didn"t even have the strength to truss a chicken right now. Besides she didn"t really want to touch anyone.
Li Xiuying didn"t feel any sinister intent nor did she feel like they were going to harm her... except with their words. Plus she has never heard of news report about a gang of five comprised of three handsome men, a little bun and an elder going around abducting women off the streets in broad daylight. Li Xiuying concluded that the chance of them having sinister intentions was low.
She decided to go with Option three which was staying put for now. She needed to conserve her energy.
In the eerie quiet of the back seat a loud stomach grumbling was heard.
Li Xiuying remembered she hand"t eaten for a while. She took off her rucksack and took out two protein bars and a bottle of water. She had just started eating when she felt the temperature in the car drop.
She looked up and found everyone staring at her again. She thought that maybe they were hungry.
She took out a few more protein bars from her bag and offered it to them. They turned there noses up at her and looked at her with disgust.
Li Xiuying shrugged her shoulders and continued eating.
She turned her attention to the little boy. The little boy was holding his stomach and there was a sheen of sweat on his forehead.
Li Xiuying: "Unwell? I can a.s.sess..."
A deep husky voice cut in: "Keep out of our business."
She looked in the direction of the cold voice. It was the 30 year old man. His piercing black eyes looked at her with disgust, as if she were a piece of gum on the bottom of his shoe.
Li Xiuying could tell this man thought she was insignificant. Li Xiuying met the man"s gaze and refused to look away. "Who is this frost demon? I was only trying to help."
She quietly a.s.sessed the frost demon.
He had midnight black hair that was perfectly styled, not a single hair was out of place. He had eyebrows like swords. His ebony eyes appeared as though they could see into the depths of your soul. He had a straight nose. His thin peach colored lips didn"t detract from the raw masculinity he exuded. He had a strong jaw line. Overall it looked like his face was sculpted from jade by angels.
Li Xiuying"s eyes glided down to the rest of his body. He wore what must have been a custom-made navy suit as it fit him perfectly, highlighting his athletic body and long legs. The man wore a crisp white s.h.i.+rt with a burgundy tie.
Male husky voice: "Did no-one ever teach you it"s rude to stare?"
He frowned at the woman. He had never been stared at so blatantly. Most people wouldn"t even dare to look at him straight in the eyes let alone ogle him so openly.
Li Xiuying continued to stare for a little longer.
She mumbled to herself "I just have an appreciation for beauty."
He said a little louder with a hint of exasperation: "Are you done?"
Li Xiuying nodded subconsciously then s.h.i.+fted her gaze back to the little boy.
