Looking at Nan Xian and Feng Ruqing, Nan Chiyou somehow felt that she had been ignored.
It was as if Nan Xian was desperate to kick her away…
It was getting late. Feng Ruqing told them to go to rest first, and she left.
Night fell.
The curtain of darkness was drawn.
Nan Chiyou was just about to rest when the door of her room was suddenly pushed open.
She looked up and saw the young man walking in. The moonlight was pouring down and casting shadows upon his figure.
“Nan Ming, what are you doing here? Didn’t my father arrange a room for you?” Nan Chiyou asked with a puzzled gaze.
The young man smiled. “I can’t sleep if I don’t sleep on the beams.”
Speechless.
‘What kind of quirks are these?’
She pondered for a while. “Your place does not have a beam?”
“It is not the same because… You are not under that beam.”
‘Because you are not under that beam…
‘I can’t sleep in peace without you.’
Nan Chiyou’s face stiffened. Did it mean that Nan Ming would stick to her from now on?
Then, all her privacy was gone?
“Nan Ming!” she gritted her teeth. “Go back to your room and sleep.”
As if he did not hear her voice, the young man leaped onto the beam of her room with a single bound and lay down on top of it at ease.
His voice was clear. “It’s late. Go to sleep.”
“Nan Ming, there is a boundary between men and women. Don’t you know that?”
“I’m not a man. I’m just a wolf.” The young man smiled as he leaped down from the beam. His hand resting against the bed, and his eyes lowered as he looked at the little girl in front of him. “I am only a wolf that can kill and eat people at any time.”
His voice was gentle, but his eyes were overbearing.
“You…” Nan Chiyou became mad. She was about to say something but suddenly saw the smile on the young man’s face slowly disappear.
The silver snake wrapped around her wrist also lifted its small head. “King…”
The young man fell silent. He turned and gazed into the night.
Not waiting for Nan Chiyou to ask, the young man suddenly rushed to the night sky and disappeared.
The silver snake hurriedly climbed down from her wrist, swiftly following the young man. In a flash, it also disappeared.
Nan Chiyou froze. She did not know what had happened, but since she met Nan Ming, it was the first time to see him with such an expression.
She pursed her lips and finally chased after them, heading where they had just vanished and left her room.
***
The night was as clear as water, full of silence.
The young man stopped in his tracks on the hill with his hands on the sides clenched tightly. His face was cold and sullen.
Suddenly, a peal of laughter rang under the night sky. It was extremely demonic as if it carried the power to compel the heart.
“Wolf King, I didn’t expect you to hide in this place! It took me a long time to find you. I’ll see where you can escape to this time.”
Under the night, a man in red robes walked out slowly.
The moment this man appeared, the whole sky seemed to be illuminated.
His red robes seemed to glow in the dark.
This man looked gorgeous–the beauty of the demon.
“This time, you’re not the only one looking for me. I am also looking for you.” Nan Ming smiled coldly. He raised his hand, and a long sword appeared out of thin air.
