one hourAs long as he can keep living, he can repay all these hardships to Xu Ronghua!

"Do you want to get revenge on her" A hoarse voice suddenly echoed in the room, causing Lin Zhigang to tremble all over and look around in terror.

The empty room had nothing in it.

"Who are you" he asked cautiously, afraid that Xu RongHua might return at any moment and torment him again.

A raspy voice echoed once more, "I can help you."

Lin Zhigang couldn't believe it, and he yearned for someone to help him inside, "How can you help me"

The aged voice chuckled, a strange sound, "I can help you leave this place, but I have conditions."

Lin Zhigang rolled his eyes, he didn't dare to answer rashly. He wanted to leave, but he was even more afraid that this was a trap set by Xu Rong hua.

"You could consider this, I'll contact you in a few days." The aged voice didn't immediately demand a response, giving him a few days to think it over. Then, it fell silent, ignoring Lin Zhigang's several calls from within the house.

"We've already arranged for Xu Rong-hua, why do you still want to use Lin Zhi-gang" A gaunt, shifty-eyed man stood behind an elder, his face full of confusion as he inquired.

The old man let out a cold smile and said dismissively, "When fishing, would you complain about having too much bait"

The scrawny man shook his head, understanding. "No."

The old man said no more, commanding, "Watch closely, don't let Xu Rong hua kill him."

"Yes." The emaciated man took the order and then asked, "Xu Rong Hua has been here for a few days now, being well-fed and looked after. When are we going to put her into action"

"No rush. Let's wait a while, it will happen sooner or later."

The scrawny, wretched man said nothing more, only "Yes."

"I'm leaving, you watch it and don't cause any trouble," he said. Then, leaning heavily on his cane, the old man slowly walked toward the door.

"Yes."

When the old man’s figure disappeared, the lecherous-looking man ordered, "Keep an eye on them, don't let them die." After that, he swaggered into Xu Ronghua's room.

They had been holed up here for days without seeing a woman. To him, even a mosquito was a woman as far as Xu Ronghua was concerned.

Besides, Xu Ronghua's service was quite comfortable. Naturally, one wouldn't want to waste it for nothing.

——

Owls generally sleep lightly and for a short amount of time, waking up after only a few hours.

Just as he was about to get up, he saw the little woman nestled in his arms and stopped.

He lowered his gaze to look at her, feeling that she seemed a little hot. Her fair forehead had a thin layer of sweat, and her cheeks were flushed red, as if she had been powdered.

The night owl raised his hand and picked up the air conditioner button on the bedside table, turning it down a degree. Just as he put it down, he caught sight of his phone screen lighting up.

Taking his phone, Lin Jin was passed over, and Ye Xiao slid open the screen. It was a new email.

It popped up, a number he didn't recognize texting him.

There was not a single word in the email, only an attachment. Ye Xiao was preparing to download it onto his computer.

He logged out of his email, turned off his phone and as he was putting it away, the person in his arms moved slightly and slowly opened their eyes.

"Awake" Ye Xiao looked at Lin Jinran who was not in a good state, his eyes still dazed, and chuckled softly, "You slept even deeper than me."

"Huh" Lin Jinran blinked her eyes, looking at the handsome face in front of her. Only then did she realize that she was accompanying Ye Xiao to sleep. She didn't expect that she would sleep more soundly than him.

I felt a little embarrassed and my face was still flushed. I couldn't speak clearly, just mumbled back to him, "I didn't sleep well last night either because you weren't here, so I fell asleep!" frowned displeasure, the gleam in his eyes dimmed, and his tone grew colder. "You only need to deliver my message!""Please tell Aunt, Shaoqing and we are chatting." Compared to Fu Shaoqing's coldness...
