Lixia looked around. The back courtyard of the restaurant was empty except for a thatched cottage. There was only a flower rack that was covered with withered branches and leaves.
There was a small door on the right side of the flower rack. It was slowly opening, and a carriage filled with mountain goods slowly walked in.
Door? Lixia eyes lit up as he swiftly waved his short legs and ran towards the open door. Under the cover of the ox cart, he leaped out.
Lixia only took a deep breath when she passed through the alley and ran to the main road. Her bright and crafty eyes narrowed, but before she could smile, she stiffly looked at the old man who suddenly appeared opposite her and whispered," Grandpa, I ……"
"Loathsome girl, I' ll let you run. I' ll see where you' re running..." The old man's face was full of viciousness as he maliciously looked at the little girl that was blocked by him. If he were to be aware of this little girl that he had obtained, he would have run away. After catching the eagle for his entire life, the chicken would have pecked his eyes.
He did not expect a young lady of the Guan family to put down her airs and pretend to have lost her memory. She was really careless, but she would not.
What should we do? What should we do? Lixia bit her slightly cracked red lips as she anxiously looked at the people who were about to arrive. Her heart was filled with unwillingness. She clearly would be able to regain her freedom soon.
"Grandfather, I didn' t do it on purpose."
Since they had already been discovered, they could only fight to the death. After being caught, it was just a beating and intimidation. Lixia turned around and ran back to the alley.
There was nothing she could do about it. The main road was blocked by the old man. If she dared to go, she would only be able to walk on her own.
"Darn girl, stop right there..." The old man's mouth revealed a smile of success as his declining body ran swiftly.
Lixia ran into the location of the kidnapper in a panic. She couldn't be caught. This was the only thought in her heart.
"Bang..." The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground was reflected in Lixia eyes, accompanied by blood splattering everywhere.
She suddenly stopped her body, and with a single glance, she saw a pair of cold, indifferent, blood-red eyes.
The desolate ice sheet was filled with loneliness and bone-chilling coldness, and there was no aura of a living person.
Chu Li looked at the young girl who had suddenly appeared and casually swung the sword that had taken the blood. The corners of her lips that were tightly pressed together carried a mocking smile.
"Damn girl, I saw you run there. Why don' t you obediently follow me back? I won' t break your leg in a while ……"
The familiar old voice behind him grew closer and closer. Lixia finally remembered that he was running for his life, but...... The Men on the other side would be even more dangerous. The sweet smell of blood in the dead end filled her nose. Lixia face turned pale and her body trembled violently.
Her body couldn' t help but tremble. The corpses on the ground made her feel as if she wanted to vomit. However, Lixia tightly bit her lips and firmly walked over. She grabbed Men clothes and blinked her tear-filled eyes. Her voice was weak but firm.
"Please, save me ……"
###Chapter3
Chu Li didn' t make any movements. He lowered his head and looked at the girl who was still firmly holding onto his hem. She was clearly terrified, and her jet-black black hair descended along with his movements. His lips were red and his teeth were white, and he was extremely handsome.
This was the first time someone had come close to him, so close that he could see the thin fur on her face through the sunlight.
"Please, save me ……"
Chu Li didn' t reply, and he raised his eyes to look at another Men that had appeared here, the old man with white hair and beard, and the terror in his eyes.
However, after all, what he had done had always been a heartless matter. The old man's fear was finally broken through by the temptation of money. He slowly stopped," That girl is my granddaughter... Please let him go...... Come over ……"
He swallowed a mouthful of saliva. In front of him was a Men that had truly killed people and seen blood.
The moment Lixia saw the old man, he almost immediately forgot his fear and panic. His hands tightly wrapped around Chu Li legs as he loudly refuted the old man's words.
"No, I' m not his granddaughter. He's a human trafficker. Big brother, please save me."
She raised her head, her dark brown pupils reflecting Men pale face and dark red lips.
"Zhuang Shi, don' t listen to her nonsense. She's just making a quarrel with me ……" The old man fawningly glanced at the Chu Li covered in blood, then fiercely threatened Lixia," Darn girl, hurry up and come over. Don' t you want to live anymore......"
"How much?"
Chu Li spoke indifferently, his desolate eyes quietly watching the chattering Men, his voice extremely cold.
"Ah?" The old man paused for a moment, then a chrysanthemum bloomed on his wrinkled face." A hundred taels... Ah, no, no, it's eighty taels."
Chu Li ignored the old man and looked down at the stunned Lixia." You' re mine in the future, are you willing?"
"It's mine alone." He didn' t glare at Lixia to make a decision, Chu Li added.
Lixia stared blankly at Men overly handsome face. Then, as if bewitched, he nodded in a daze.
Chu Li revealed a faint, almost invisible smile as he took out a brocade bag and threw it over.
"Scram."
The old man took the silver with a smile on his face. He turned around and ran out. In any case, he wanted to sell it out. Although he earned less money, his life was more important.
The cold wind spun around the fallen leaves on the ground, causing Lixia to shiver from the cold. She let go of her hand somewhat sheepishly, but as she looked at the corpses on the ground, she once again wrapped around them.
"Hehehe, big brother, thank you ……"
Lixia was very impressed that she could still laugh in such a bad state. She felt that her legs and stomach were already weak.
Chu Li merely glanced at him indifferently and didn' t say anything. He had probably just seen a person in the eyes of this little girl. There was only one person. That was his face, cold, indifferent, and lonely.
He had never possessed anything that belonged to him, but at that moment, he had the idea of raising this little girl by his side. Raising a little thing that belonged only to him made her eyes reflect only his shadow.
Since it was a little thing he raised, there was nothing to indulge in.
Lixia did not understand his intentions. He could only laugh awkwardly, but the strength in his hands was not at all relaxed.
"Master, are you alright? "That's too urgent."
In this awkward situation, a sharp voice finally came through.
Lixia only felt a gust of fragrant wind wafting over, and he was pushed to the side. There was also a demonic sound in his ear.
"Master, are you injured? Little one, let those brats get a Doctor back immediately. Master, if you are injured, you must say it, but don't hold back ……"
The veins on the corner of Chu Li's brows twitched. Finally, he gritted his teeth and spat out a word," Get lost."
"Sigh, Master is fine. Little one, get lost." After DE AN finished inspecting the last place on Chu Li body, he took a step back with a smile.
"Achoo ……"
Lixia carefully took a step back and looked awkwardly at the DE AN who had shifted his gaze. The corner of his mouth revealed an awkward yet polite smile.
In terms of what kind of beating would happen to a girl who was bought by someone if she tried to escape and was discovered? Lixia subconsciously felt his butt hurt.
She really didn't want to sneeze. She really did n' t want to. However, the smell of fat on that new Men's body was so strong that she was about to die. The cold wind blew so hard that she had nowhere to hide.
"Hahaha, the weather is pretty good today. "Ha..." Lixia laughed. After touching Men cold yet penetrating eyes, he unconsciously scratched his hand.
"You two really have a good relationship, ha ……"
Lixia felt like there must be a bunch of crows flying over his head. It was really embarrassing to die......
An imperceptible smile flashed through the depths of Chu Li's eyes, but there was no expression on his cold yet handsome face.
His pitch-black eyes quietly stared at the fake smiling girl. His movements were almost like afterimages as he rushed to Lixia side and stretched out his hand to imprison Lixia shoulder.
"Remember, you are mine."
"DE AN, take him away." Men didn' t give Lixia any chance to react, he lifted his foot and walked out. The black cloak with silver threads fluttered in the wind, sending a faint smell of blood.
Lixia seemed to have been frozen. His pale little face was filled with fear. That Men was too terrifying. His eyes seemed to have been buried in an Asura Ground. He had completely suppressed his charm, and his teeth and claws were so sharp that no one dared to approach him.
"Oh, this is a girl, right? Master is truly a girl. Could it be that she's enlightened?" DE AN watched as Chu Li's back completely disappeared before slowly placing his gaze on the child who wanted to escape.
He was only ten years old. He was dressed in coarse linen clothes, but he couldn' t cover the delicate skin on the girl's body. He looked like a beautiful woman, but he didn' t expect his master to take such a good sip.
DE AN stretched out his hand and held Lixia palm while his sharp voice was filled with a smile.
"Little child, since our Governor has taken a liking to you, then obediently follow me!"
No one had ever appeared by their Governor's side. It was not easy for him to appear, so he had to watch.
Governor? Lixia raised his head in confusion and looked at the skinny Men, who was still covered in pink and fat." Governor? "What is it?"
Don't bully her. When she was modern, she had watched TV before. Was n' t all the supervisors a eunuch?
However, upon seeing this, Lixia suddenly realized that the person holding her did not seem to be a normal Men. If it was normal, who would have put such a large amount of powder on her body.
The most important thing was that not only did this person like to put on makeup, but he even put on makeup. His voice was not like that of an ordinary person. So, was this really... a... eunuch?
Lixia felt that the world was a bit mysterious. Was she saved by the head of a eunuch and still being raised by her side? This feeling was a bit horrifying!
"The Governor is the Governor. He is someone under one person in the world. In the future, no one will dare to bully you. However..." DE AN paused and said with a smile," Remember, the Governor does not like disobedient people."
###Chapter4
The road in the white jade shop was extremely luxurious, but it was only the most common thing here. On the spotless ground, a little girl dressed in beautiful clothes was squatting with a worried expression.
