1957 Not Moving 1
Gu Chaoyan handed the sword to Duan Feng but refrained from revealing the box containing the Golden Rolls.
Duan Feng proceeded to speak, "I have acquired the Heaven-Slaying Sword, and you can now remove the barrier. Additionally, the Xuantian Sect surrendered the fragment of the Golden Rolls, which is now in my possession. I intend to leave Haitian as soon as possible to prevent any trouble arising from the fragment."
Duan Feng appeared slightly taken aback.
Evidently, he hadn"t antic.i.p.ated the involvement of the Golden Rolls.
However, after the initial surprise, he displayed no further emotions.
Haitian had no stake in these matters.
"Let"s go together," Duan Feng suggested.
Gu Chaoyan nodded, harboring no rush to depart.
Accompanied by Duan Feng, they arrived at the barrier, and with adept precision, Duan Feng wielded the Heaven-Slaying Sword, cutting a substantial opening in the barrier.
Haitian"s market remained bustling with people, some departing while others entering. Amidst the commotion, Duan Feng and Gu Chaoyan ventured inward.
Numerous items were piled up, but as Gu Chaoyan scanned her surroundings, Zhou Huaijin was nowhere to be found.
Baffled, she inquired, "Where is he?"
Duan Feng was well aware of whom she referred to.
"He is likely at the auction house. He has been rather elusive lately, so I"m uncertain of his whereabouts," Duan Feng confessed.
Since her departure, he hadn"t encountered Lady Chaoyan.
Elusive?
Gu Chaoyan found herself pondering when Zhou Huaijin suddenly emerged and stood before her.
He appraised her, remarking with a husky voice, "You"ve lost weight."
He then pulled her into his embrace, displaying his concern.
Observing the scene, the masked man turned and departed.
"Let"s return home now," Gu Chaoyan said, her tone softening.
Duan Feng did not interject.
The two of them made their way back to the hostel.
It was the same hostel they had previously resided in.
"Now that the barrier has been opened, we should leave Haitian as soon as possible. I"m anxious to know what has been happening outside," Gu Chaoyan expressed her worry.
"Alright," Zhou Huaijin responded in a hoa.r.s.e voice.
He held her tightly in his arms.
Kisses cascaded like raindrops.
This was the longest period of time they had spent apart. Though he appeared composed on the surface, inwardly he was filled with panic and concern.
Thankfully, she was right by his side.
He could feel her presence clearly.
That was why she felt a strong connection and an unwillingness to let go.
He wanted to be close to her, to feel their unity.
Zhou Huaijin"s mind was a whirlwind of emotions. He held her firmly, wanting to possess her completely.
Gu Chaoyan trembled, clutching his clothes tightly, torn between desire and hesitation.
In that moment, they were lost in their own world, forgetting about everything else around them.
The white robe slipped off, revealing her bare shoulders. Gently, Zhou Huaijin guided her onto the bed, treating her with care.
He placed light kisses on her shoulders, his affection evident.
Gu Chaoyan, slender and delicate, blushed, her eyes s.h.i.+ning with intensity.
As Zhou Huaijin drew closer, Gu Chaoyan instinctively pushed him away, a sense of unfamiliarity overwhelming her.
"Don"t move, I promise not to hurt you."
