Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Mo Qiange’s words were still running through his mind. Anning had been missing for half a month in England and yet, he still did not know!
He hated the fact that Laurent turned out to be the one who did that to Luo Anning!
The more he thought about it, the more he detested himself. He thought, Laurent had been going out every night for the past two weeks. Why didn’t I pay more attention to it?
Had I paid attention to Laurent’s behavior, I wouldn’t be kept in the dark until now! She’s been trapped for two weeks and I only found out now!
Du Xiaoran’s eyes turned bloodshot and his handsome face grimaced maniacally. He tightened his grip on the steering wheel and he subtly expressed his anger towards his owner.
He wished he could fly to the inn and rescue Luo Anning. He had never detested Laurent this much before. He wished he could rip her into shreds.
…
“Quit being so long-winded. Hurry and scram before we lose our temper!”
“What if I don’t scram?”
“Don’t blame us for being harsh then!”
Bang~
“Ka-cha”
“Ah!”
“Do you get who’s the weak one now? You’re just a small fry and yet, you still have the cheek to embarra.s.s yourself in front of Grandpa. You’re really overestimating yourself.”
She was overwhelmed with excruciating pain that penetrated through her skin. Luo Anning was jolted awake by miscellaneous noises. She opened her eyes slowly and felt confused by everything that took place before her.
Laurent’s bodyguards were pressed against the ground and wailed loudly while a tall and slender figure stood by the door. She could not see him clearly because of the back light.
The man clapped and got ready to leave. However, he did not wish to see the woman who had just woken up. She had a beautiful pair of eyes which were clear yet gla.s.sed over and out of focus.
“Who are you?” Luo Anning asked.
As soon as she spoke, she realized that her voice had already become extremely hoa.r.s.e because of how parched she was.
“Just a pa.s.serby.” He turned around to leave after speaking.
Luo Anning stared at the bodyguards who had already collapsed. Knowing that it was her last chance, she struggled to get up and barked at the man, “Don’t go! Save me… save me and get me out of here… ”
He turned around in amus.e.m.e.nt and stared at the wounded woman whom he could not even recognize. It seemed to be their first meeting. In that case, why was he obliged to save her?
Besides, he could tell from the uniform of the bodyguards, that she was definitely wealthy.
He had never liked being nosy or getting involved with others.
Staring at the beautiful pair of eyes, he asked, “Why should I save you? What good do I get in return?”
“You’re Asian, aren’t you? Me too.” Luo Anning struggled to speak because she felt like sand was being rubbed against her throat whenever she spoke. The pain was so excruciating that she broke out into cold sweat.
He leaned against the door frame nonchalantly and stared at the determined Luo Anning in awe. “And so?”
“Rescue me and I’ll repay you for your kindness. You may feel free to approach me whenever you need my help.”
“How would I know if I need you or not? If I don’t ever need your help, won’t I be wasting my energy by rescuing you?”
Luo Anning bit her lip and stared at the door every now and then. Laurent would be coming to torture her anytime soon. She had to leave before Laurent came back!
“Please, save me!” Luo Anning exclaimed with a strong will to leave. She had already swallowed her pride and resorted to pleading him.
“Forget it, I’ll just take it that I’m doing a kind deed today. Well, who told the odor of your blood to disrupt my sleep? You’re lucky to have met me today.”
