In the dimly lit alley, where no light could be seen, Qingyin waited and felt a cool breeze around her, a rare moment of relief for her after she had been sweating profusely.

However, luck is probably unbalanced, and Qingyin felt that she was one of them.

"Don't move." A sharp, cool touch pressed against her neck, and the man's deep, husky breath tickled Qingyin's ear.

But Qingyin dared not make the slightest movement, standing stiffly in place.

Qingyin dared not gamble on what this cold, sharp thing might be.

The tall man in black looked down at the stiff girl he was supporting, and could even feel her body trembling from time to time because of fear.

He frowned, thrusting the dagger forward, leaving specks of blood. He leaned close to the girl's ear and whispered, "Behave yourself, don't even think about asking for help."

Startled by the sudden pain, Qingyin's face paled instinctively. She bit her lip and said, "I understand."

The girl's gentle yet fearful voice made one want to soften.

The man listened to the barely audible sound, so faint it was almost inaudible, that he wouldn't have heard it at all if he hadn't been so close.

However, the pleasant female voice did soften his tone and make him gentler: "Behave yourself, and I'll let you go once I'm safe."

"Okay." Qingyin blinked her delicate eyelashes tremblingly and replied with difficulty.

The woman's obedience softened the man's expression, and he moved slightly away from Qingyin's dagger.

Qingyin felt the blade tip recede and relaxed slightly.

But the man's next move startled her.

"Why do you smell so good?" The man kept sniffing the back of the girl's head, like a dog addicted to its owner.

Qingyin froze. Tsk, not only a kidnapper but also a pervert.

The man asked with utmost gentleness, "Did you put on some kind of perfume? You smell so good."

If we disregard the dog-like behavior and outrageous questions men ask these days, we could probably still praise them as gentlemen.

Qingyin blushed and said timidly, "It's her body scent."

"Born that way?"

"Um."

"Your neck is so white, you haven't ever been in the sun since you were a child, have you?"

"Her hair is also very beautiful."

The man sincerely praised the girl in front of him, without realizing that his words were disrespectful to her.

The man's gaze lingered on the pair of ears hidden among the girl's hair, their color growing increasingly red.

As the fragrance lingered longer and longer on his nose, resting on the delicate pink earlobe of that work of art, Xie Ping licked his sharp canine teeth. Suddenly, he felt an appetite, but it wasn't the kind of appetite that comes from being hungry. He couldn't help but want to lick the delicate pink earlobe in front of him.

Feeling the man's excited gaze, Qingyin trembled and dared not speak again.

Seeing that the girl had stopped talking, Xie Ping was not angry.

The constant red bloodstains and pain on his back didn't attract his attention at all.

"Miss, close your eyes. If you see my face, I won't let you go."

After Xie Ping finished speaking, Qingyin immediately closed her eyes.

Time seemed to have passed for a long time. After Qingyin heard several surprised and frightened voices from the people in the distance, as well as a series of orderly and disciplined footsteps, the man switched her position with his.

She also removed her veil.

The man's eyes sparkled with admiration, and Qingyin felt the heat on her face but dared not open her eyes even a little.

"Wife, why do you insist on staying here? What if someone sees us?"

"Put your hand on my shoulder." The man lowered his head and leaned close to Qingyin's face, his warm breath hitting her face directly.

Qingyin blushed, not daring to resist, her long, thick eyelashes trembling rapidly.

Looking down at the stunningly beautiful woman with a rosy face, the man concealed the intense possessiveness and ambition in his eyes, chuckled softly, and immediately changed his mind.

The man's tall figure completely blocked the girl's slender frame, leaving only a pair of fair, jade-like hands trembling as they rested on his shoulders.

Although the scene wasn't particularly explicit, to the soldiers searching for the enemy, it looked like they were seeing the most erotic picture in the world.

Someone in the group swallowed hard, the sound particularly noticeable in the quiet alley, startling the affectionate young couple hiding in the alley.

The man, with his back to the soldiers, held his beautiful young wife tightly in his arms, revealing not a trace of her, and softly comforted her:

"Yes, it's my fault. I shouldn't have been here. Let's go back right away, okay?"

...The man's voice was so gentle that it made one wonder what his wife, whom he was comforting, looked like, and what her fair, delicate hands were like.

The soldiers were lost in their fantasies when their leader glared at them, which stopped them from indulging in their daydreams.

"Alright, this is the couple. Let's go."

"Yes, leader."

...

Even after the footsteps had faded into the distance, Qingyin could still feel the man's deliberate scrutiny and gaze. She couldn't help but retort, "They're gone, why are you still like this!"

"Still like this? What about me? Miss, can you tell me?" Xie Ping smiled.

The girl's once pale face flushed red again. Her small lips opened and closed repeatedly, but she couldn't say anything. She didn't dare to open her eyes, looking utterly pitiful.

Xie Ping couldn't help but find the girl in front of him adorable.

The man lowered his head and chuckled, "Alright, tell me your name, and I'll let you go, okay?"
