n‘Ta-da-da‘ drops of water hitting the floor emitted an ethereal sound that pierced one’s ears. The sound was small, but it didn’t seem very pleasant in the quiet environment.
nThe man stood in the dark room with a grim expression, his fingers clenched in a fist, and his eyes fixed on the empty bed. There is no telling how long he stood there before taking a step forward and touching the quilt with his palm.
nThe man’s expression became even colder.
nThe temperature in the covers has long since cooled down, and it is impossible to guess how long the occupant of the bed has been away.
nThe man clenched his teeth.
nHis baby had been out of this room for at least over an hour!!!
nThinking of this, the man can no longer use words to express his inner anger and urgency.
nThe man scanned the room’s furnishings and looked very carefully, as if afraid to miss any clues.
nBut the room was furnished as if it has no owner. It is clean, and there are very few things in the room, making it is impossible to tell anything from it.
nThe next second, the man’s body turned into a wisp of black smoke, submerged in the darkness, floated in the air, and completely disappeared.
nUnless his baby opens the door of this room, no one can enter! No one can enter this space!
nWhere the hell did his baby go?
nWhat’s worse is that it seems that there is something that has cut off his sense with his baby, preventing him from detecting his baby’s location!
n–
nXu Caitong’s expression throughout the entire time was like a puddle of stagnant water. His face was very haggard and did not have any vitality. He looked like he had aged more than ten years, and his appearance was very different from when they first saw him.
nNot only that, the smell of blood on Xu Caitong’s body is very strong, spreading in the air, and was unpleasant to the nose. There was even a foul odor floating around, like the smell of dead fish.
nLi Gou Dan frowned in disgust as he was deeply affected before resisting the urge to throw out Xu Caitong.
nOn the other hand, Yang Ru looked at Su Jingxia from time to time and had many speculations and judgments in her eyes about this person. She has a strong psychological quality and is not a good person. Still, she has come to this point after being forced out by people, so her defenses were heavier than anyone else’s. And she felt that this man was extraordinarily cold-blooded and dangerous at first sight. If she didn’t have any other choice, she wouldn’t want to have any contact with such a person at all.
nSurprisingly, Su Jingxia, who will have a fit and make some strange movements from time to time, did not make a sound this time. His expression was light as he was walking at the side. He was well-dressed, his movements were very reserved, and it was utterly undetectable that he was a madman.
nBut what everyone did not notice was that there was a black mist wrapped around their heads at some point, following their pace closely.
nIn the darkness, the man’s attention fell on the one covered in blood and walking at the end, and his eyes instantly lit up.
nHe could sense his baby’s breath on this person!
nThis group of people must have seen his baby!
nWith this thought, the man’s heart instantly became excited. Even his expression when looking at Su Jingxia took on a bit of heat.
nSu Jingxia’s footsteps lagged, and his body stopped in place. Yang Ru first saw his movements, but although a hint of mysterious suspicion arose in her heart, she did not take it too seriously.
nSu Jingxia’s eyes changed directly from clear to cloudy, and his originally expressionless face froze. His brain went into brief shock for a second, and his eyes lost their light. The next second, Su Jingxia, who seemed different, returned to normal and continued to move forward. He didn’t seem to notice that he had just been out of his mind for a while.
n
n
nThe man copied Su Jingxia’s memory and began to reflect on it carefully.
nThat’s right! It’s my baby!!!
nThe next second, the black fog slowly dispersed and flew away in another direction, as if it never existed.
nXiao Chen opened his eyes suddenly and looked around.
nHe took a deep breath, his eyes still misted and dazed.
nHe fell asleep at some point while sitting on the chair.
nXiao Chen pressed his temples with his hand, his nerves still in a bit of a trance.
nWhy does he always feel as if he has forgotten something very important?
nXiao Chen lifted his head again and stared at the chandelier on the ceiling.
nSuddenly, as if remembering something, Xiao Chen slowly moved his gaze to his neck, staring closely at the pendant with a strange shape.
nWith this in mind, Xiao Chen’s fingers could not help but attach to the pendant and gently feel it a few times.
nThere is an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
nNot knowing what he was thinking, Xiao Chen hesitated and took the pendant off his neck carefully, holding it in his hand and observing it under the light.
nWhen Yu Mo hung the necklace around his neck, the surrounding area was too dark, and he couldn’t see too well at all.
nThe pendant was in the shape of a scythe with a simple style, but looking closely, there seems to be some carvings of drawn symbols on it. Xiao Chen touched it, and there was an indescribable feeling to the touch.
nKeke, I finally found you! My treasure!
nXiao Chen’s hand paused, and he blinked innocently, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.
nDid he just hear something?
nXiao Chen bit his lips.
nThat voice was familiar.
nWhose does it resemble?
nXiao Chen fell into deep thought, and suddenly, his eyes lit up.
nIt was Yu Mo’s voice!
nXiao Chen just came up with an answer, but before he had time to think about it, he was embraced by a slightly cold but broad chest from behind and directly into their arms.
nXiao Chen was shocked as someone suddenly hugged him, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
nXiao Chen’s throat moved. He blinked and carefully looked towards the face of the person behind him. After seeing his features clearly, Xiao Chen slowly relaxed his heart.
nPhew.
nIt’s Yu Mo.
nAt this thought, Xiao Chen relaxed his body and allowed the other party to hold himself in his arms.
nThe man was almost a head taller than Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen was sitting on a chair again, and the posture of the two was the man leaning down to enclose Xiao Chen in his arms, along with the chair. The man put his head against Xiao Chen’s neck, his thin lips moved, and his eyes flickered slightly, “Baby, you are not good.”
nYou actually ran here!
nXiao Chen turned his head with a confused face and dumbly locked eyes with the man.
nThe two’s posture is very ambiguous at the moment, especially under the yellow light, they appear more intimate. There is only a distance of a few centimeters between their faces. As long as they come a little closer, they can kiss unrestrainedly.
nThe man’s gray eyes trembled with the temptation of the beauty in front of him, and the knot in his throat slid as he moved his head, as if he wanted a kiss.
nBut before he succeeded, a powerful force from behind grabbed him violently by the collar. He immediately let go of Xiao Chen to prevent hurting his baby. As expected, he was flung directly by something with a strong force the next second. But the moment he was thrown away, he turned into a black mist and condensed back into an entity, standing again in the same place.
nYu Mo took Xiao Chen in his arms, and his gray eyes were so cold that they were almost condensed into ice. His hands were clenched, and his entire body was in a stage of fury as if he would go berserk in the next second. He looked at the man in front of him grimly, just like a lion whose territory had been violated and was ready for a fight to the death.
nXiao Chen’s mouth dropped open, and his gaze went back and forth between Yu Mo and the man’s face a few times in disbelief.
nHow can there be two Yu Mo?
nThe man narrowed his eyes and made a move to attack. His aura did not lose Yu Mo, and when the two stood side by side, they looked precisely like they were carved out of the same mold!
n
n
nThe man thought viciously.
nThe baby is his!
nIt was this man who snatched his baby from his side!!!
nYu Mo almost completely furious. He gritted his teeth and said, “Appearing in front of me with this face, do you not want to live anymore?”
nHearing this, the man snorted and hooked the corners of his mouth. His eyes were disdainful as he shot back, “I found him first! So he’s mine! It was you who took advantage of the situation to take him away from me!”
nAfter the man finished speaking, his eyes became stern. Yu Mo was utterly enraged, his right hand’s five fingers bent like a claw. A black mist emerged from his hand, and he waved his hand in the direction of the man and attacked him.
nThe man’s eyebrows jumped, and he turned into mist to dodge, narrowly avoiding injury.
nFrom the beginning, Xiao Chen hid behind Yu Mo, speechlessly watching the battle between the two men, inwardly horrified.
nXiao Chen had already determined who was Yu Mo the moment he spoke. He carefully observed the man who had the same face as Yu Mo and had a strange feeling that he couldn’t explain.
nBefore Yu Mo appeared, Xiao Chen did take that man as Yu Mo. Still, when these two men stood together, even if their figures and expressions were identical, Xiao Chen found that he could still see the difference between the two!
nHe can clearly perceive that that person and Yu Mo are definitely two different individuals.
nThe man’s gray eyes flashed, and he stood still, coldly staring at Yu Mo, without seeming to have the slightest intention of backing down.
nYu Mo looked at this face that was no different from his own. He frowned and opened his mouth gloomily, “Now, get out!!!” His voice was raised slightly, and when his last word landed, it almost carried an ear-piercing shock.
nThe man did not speak, nor did he show the slightest look of fear.
nJust when Xiao Chen thought that the man was planning to do something, the man only stood still and gave Xiao Chen a deep look. There was a hidden touch in the eyes that Xiao Chen could not understand.
nEven Yu Mo did not continue to attack but only coldly stared at the man’s every move, enclosing Xiao Chen in his arms.
nThe next second, the man turned into black mist again and completely disappeared from the room.
nXiao Chen watched at the scene in front of him with a dumbfounded face, looked in the direction the man left, and then up at Yu Mo, and was still a little confused.
nYu Mo walked to Xiao Chen, squatted down, and knelt on one knee. It was like a General willingly lowering his noble head and accepting the Emperor’s crowning, just because the one sitting on the throne is the one he loves so much.
nYu Mo leaned over and buried his head in Xiao Chen’s arms. His right ear was close to Xiao Chen’s thigh, enabling him to sense the temperature of Xiao Chen’s body, as well as the faint scent of his body.
nXiao Chen felt that he should seem to say something, but before he could speak, Yu Mo lifted his own head and tilted it to meet Xiao Chen’s gaze.
nFrom Xiao Chen’s point of view, he was able to see Yu Mo’s Adam’s apple sliding slightly. There was also the looming collarbone and neck and a distinctive pair of gray eyes. And all that was reflected in his eyes was his own lone figure.
nXiao Chen must admit that he was bewitched by the beauty.
nBefore Xiao Chen could say anything, Yu Mo opened his mouth instead and said in a sour tone, “He hugged you!”
nXiao Chen felt like an arrow shot through his heart, and there was an indescribable sweetness to it.
nYu Mo’s expression is too cute!!!
nYu Mo buried his head in Xiao Chen’s lap again, looking like he was being pampered. Xiao Chen was amused, and even the words he wanted to ask were dispersed, enjoying the sweetness of the moment.
nBut what Xiao Chen did not notice was that the eyes of the man leaning on his lap suddenly changed when he could not see, becoming sinister and cold. There was no way to hide his killing intent.
nSo!!! He must disappear from this world!!!!
