The rooms in the hotel were very big. Although they were gorgeous, they did not give him a sense of security. The first thing Xiaoling saw when she entered the room was a stack of clothes on the soft bed. Was this a change of clothes? Xiaoling opened the clothes curiously. It was a pink kimono. The fabric was very comfortable to the touch, but it seemed that there were too many cute ribbons on the dress. The sudden ringing of her phone startled Xiaoling. "Hello?"
"Still not done? Xueqin has already come out." It was Shang Si's voice.
"You guys go down first. I'll be right there.”Because I don't seem to know how to wear such clothes. " It's finally done…" Xiaoling smiled as she looked at herself in the mirror." As expected, it's not enough to just learn from the book. It doesn't seem to be of any use now."”From the corner of her eye, Xiaoling caught sight of a shiny item on the table. It seemed to be a headdress. It was a very beautiful sapphire clip. Xiaoling tidied herself up and hurried downstairs. The hotel's elevator was a transparent compartment, and one could see the sea from inside. It was very quiet and spacious. Every towering building seemed to rise from the deep forest, appearing deep and dark. Most of the entertainment was on the other side of the island, and the sound of bells and drums could be heard from time to time.
"Hmm? Where's Xiaoling?" Xian waited anxiously at the elevator entrance, but Xiaoling was nowhere to be seen.
"She's still changing and will be down soon…hasn't Night returned yet?”Shang Si glanced behind Xian and could not help but feel uneasy.
"I don't know…Hmm? There he was, back. Night…this way, this way." Yin's eyes and hands were quick as he saw Ye, who had just entered the hotel.
"Has the matter been resolved?" Shang Si walked up to Ye and asked worriedly.
"It's a little troublesome. Let's talk about it later!……Where is she?" Ye Jin frowned and glanced at where Xian was, but he didn't see Xiaoling.
" She should be coming down soon..." Shang Si sat down on the sofa in the resting area." She's probably still dressing up!"”
"Shang Si, remember to watch them closely later. Let others get out of your sight.”Ye also sat down beside Shang Si and instructed coldly.
"Got it." Shang Si glanced at Xian, who was still standing guard by the elevator." If Xian hadn't let his guard down this time, things wouldn't have become so troublesome.”
"It doesn't matter. Even if Xian didn't do it, he would have provoked me sooner or later…I'll take this opportunity to get rid of him.”Night took the wine cup on the table and gently swirled the beautiful water as she calmly said.
"Can you bring them along? Isn't it too dangerous?" Shang Si asked worriedly. "We only wanted Xueqin to come and hide, but I didn't expect Xian to bring Xiaoling along…We can't tell Xian the truth, so we can only let him do whatever he wants. Ye, I think you should be more ruthless sometimes!”
"Since we're already here, let's act according to the situation. There's no use worrying here. I'll keep an eye on Xiaoling. Just take good care of Xian and Xueqin.”Just as Ye Heshangsi was still worried about the trouble, there was a sudden commotion in the elevator.
"Well…I've made you wait.”As soon as Xiaoling stepped out of the elevator, she saw Xian waiting there. Because of her attire, Xiaoling lowered her head in embarrassment. Everyone's gaze turned to the elevator door. They were all shocked and stared at Xiaoling with their mouths agape.
"So cute! Who is that girl?" A noblewoman who passed by Xiaoling exclaimed in surprise.
" I don't know him. It's my first time seeing him."
Xiaoling could clearly feel the gazes of the people around her, and she began to feel a little nervous. "Um…are you guys okay?" Xiaoling waved her hand in front of Zayen, hoping that he would regain consciousness.
"No, I'm fine. Xiaoling, you're so beautiful!" Xian happily came to Xiaoling's side and said with a smile.
"Yes, the kimono suits you very well." Shang Si, who was walking along, also praised.
"Brother Ye, I also want to wear a kimono.”Xueqin pulled Night's arm and said.
Xiaoling finally heaved a sigh of relief when she saw the reactions of the people around her. However, he felt that something was missing. Where was Night? Why didn't he say anything? Xiaoling turned her head to look for Night. Suddenly, their eyes met. Xiaoling was so shocked that she immediately turned away. Why was her heart beating so fast?
"Let's go!" Night turned around and walked towards the door, ignoring Xiaoling's reaction.
" Brother Ye…" Xueqin caught up,""Wait for me!"
"Xiaoling, let's go too!" Xian grabbed Xiaoling's hand and hurried to catch up with Ye. Xiaoling was in a strange mood. What was wrong with Night? Why did he look so troubled? And she kept pulling a long face, as if she owed him money! Xiaoling suddenly remembered that she owed him money…Xiaoling and the others first passed a very long path with dark forests on both sides. Then, they came to a brightly lit square…There were many people gathered here, and there was a circle of bodyguards dressed in black surrounding the square. It was a grand scene.
"Where are we going?" Xiaoling whispered to Xian, who was holding her hand.
"Go to the center of the island. There's a bidding meeting there…Most of the high-level members are there.”
"Why are we going there?" Xiaoling felt that her surroundings were a little unfamiliar, and she even felt a little afraid.
"This can be considered an unspoken rule! Most people would bring their favorite items there, and then other members would start bidding for everyone's items. In the end, the highest bidder would win.”Xian suddenly stopped and looked at Xiaoling." Xiaoling, don't run around later, okay? Follow me. In fact, it's very dangerous here.”Xian thought that Xiaoling's current state was very dangerous in the eyes of anyone. He thought about how to protect her.
"Got it." Xiaoling replied casually. He didn't know where to run even if he wanted to! There were even mafias and politicians here. It was obvious that this place was very dangerous.
"Hmm? Xueqin, why did you come down? Haven't you been following Night?" Xian looked strangely at Xueqin, who had been pouting and looking at Xiaoling unhappily.
" Ye wants you to go over…" Xueqin said coldly as she looked at Xiaoling.
"Let me go over? What's the matter?" Although Xueqin did not look too good, Xiaoling was more interested in knowing what had happened to Night.
"How would I know? "After saying that, Xueqin walked to the side unhappily and ignored Xiaoling.
Although Xiaoling was extremely unwilling, she still obediently chased after Night. "Wait! Slow down, hu…ha, hu…why are you looking for me?”Xiaoling asked curiously as she came to Night's side, panting.
" Don't leave my sight..." Night ordered coldly as she walked.
"What?" Hearing Night's words, Xiaoling was confused. She quickened her pace so that she wouldn't fall behind.
"No matter what happens, don't leave my sight.”Night reminded again.
"Hmm?" What was wrong with Ye? Why did he feel so uneasy? Did something happen? Xiaoling wanted to ask, but she didn't. "I know…I won't leave your sight.”Perhaps this would at least make Ye feel a little more at ease!
In front of the auditorium that Xiaoling had followed Ye, a few thick golden stone pillars appeared in front of her. An endless red carpet extended from the side of the road to the entrance of the auditorium. During this period, the endless flow of people caused Xiaoling's stomach to feel uncomfortable. It was the smell of perfume that choked her nose. She was not used to the atmosphere of such an occasion.
"What's wrong?" Ye noticed that Xiaoling's face was a little pale and asked worriedly.
" I'm fine…" Xiaoling's stomach was churning with disgust. Her head was dizzy and her legs were unsteady.
"Come here, lean against me and rest for a while!”Night gently wrapped her arm around Xiaoling's waist, letting her head rest on her shoulder. Night's every action was gentle and reassuring.
"Xiaoling, what's wrong? Are you alright?" Xian also noticed Xiaoling's abnormal situation and ran over to ask with concern.
"I'm fine, I'm just a little dizzy..."
"Xian, leave Xiaoling to Night! You should take good care of Xueqin!" Shang Si came behind Xian and reminded him.
"Yes, I know…you have to take good care of her that night.”
"I'm fine, go take care of Xueqin!”Xiaoling wondered if she was addicted to this. There was a clear feeling in her heart that she did not want to leave.
When Night arrived at the entrance, an attendant standing at the entrance led Night and Xiaoling into the hall and to the seats in front of the stage. At this moment, Xiaoling realized that Shang Si and the others were still behind them…She turned around and looked for them for a long time but did not see them. Xiaoling could not help but feel a little uneasy.
"Don't worry, they'll be fine.”Night seemed to have seen through Xiaoling's thoughts. "Sit down and rest!" Night gently helped Xiaoling to sit down on the sofa. "Are you feeling better now? Do you want to sleep?" Ye Wen checked on Xiaoling's condition, which made her heart beat faster and her face turn red.
"..." Looking at the different nights, Xiaoling was troubled. I'd rather you not be so gentle to me. I'm afraid I'll fall for it. You clearly know that we are from two different worlds, so why are you so cold and hot to me? I clearly can't understand your thoughts every time, and I'm still led by the nose by you in the end. I'm clearly unwilling, but I still don't want to resist you.
The atmosphere was boring, the atmosphere was ambiguous, and her body was uncomfortable. It didn't take long for Xiaoling to fall asleep in Ye's arms. She could vaguely hear the sound of conversation…Who was Night talking to? Was he dreaming? Why did that voice sound so heartless and cold? It was even worse than the night…Who could it be? Xiaoling slowly opened her eyes, and what greeted her eyes was…long, flowing silver hair, a high nose bridge, ice-cold light blue pupils, and a cold gaze. She was wearing a black Chinese gown, revealing an extraordinary feeling…
"The cute little kitty is awake?"
"Hmm?" Xiaoling rubbed her eyes to get a clearer look at the blurry man in front of her. Suddenly, her heart throbbed. The person in front of her was a beautiful, stunning, and noble man. Xiaoling was speechless. She stared at the person in front of her with her mouth agape…
" Hehe, your reaction is really cute…" The stranger smiled and looked at Ye." Ye, it's rare for you to find such a good beauty. Are you going to bid for it?"”
"I'm really sorry that I can't do as you wish. She's mine.”Ye Leng coldly replied.
"Heh, is that so? If that's the case…I'm even more interested. What kind of person would be able to hold onto your heart?”The man glanced at Xiaoling, who was still in a daze, and said with a smile," Little kitty…have you ever thought of changing owners? You're very welcome here…"
"Hmm? Are you calling me?" Xiaoling looked at the person in front of her strangely. Why did she feel that his words were very attractive?
"Ha, I like you very much…As long as it's something I like, I'll hunt for it without hesitation. Then you're the next target. You have to be careful.”
