What an unexpected surprise!
"Let's go!" Yan Chenghuan stood up and extended his hand to Zhang Xu in a friendly manner.
This was the first time the second male lead had spoken to her in such a kind tone! Zhang Xu trembled as she reached out her hand, wondering if she was going to shorten her lifespan by doing this!
Seeing Zhang Xu in a daze, Yan Chenghuan frowned, reached out and grabbed her wrist, lifting her up. Xu Xu looked two or three years older than Yan Chenghuan, but she was actually very light. Yan Chenghuan used a bit too much force, causing Zhang Xu to stumble forward.
"?" Zhang Xu reasonably suspected that Yan Chenghuan was doing it on purpose, because Yan Chenghuan actually laughed when she saw her panicked appearance.
It's not that villains are ruthless killers that's scary, it's that villains have such beautiful smiles. Yan Chenghuan's smile is just too handsome!
Upon meeting Zhang Xu's dazed gaze, Yan Chenghuan's smile vanished instantly. Zhang Xu, having received the sixty-five crazy notification, knew that her lecherous nature had been exposed and quickly stood at attention: "Let's go! Let's go to the altar."
Yan Chenghuan returned to his silent state. Zhang Xu didn't know what role this would play in advancing the plot. The relationship between the male and female leads should have progressed by now, so what role could she and the second male lead play here?
The original story is written from the female lead's perspective, so at this moment, it's really unclear what the female supporting character can do. Sixty-Five doesn't give any hints, so Zhang Xu can only blindly follow Yan Chenghuan. Zhang Xu was rambling on in her mind to Sixty-Five, not noticing that Yan Chenghuan had stopped. Just as she was about to bump into him, Yan Chenghuan simply turned aside, and Zhang Xu, unaware, crashed straight into the pillar in front of her.
Yan Chenghuan watched with interest as she rubbed her reddened forehead: "In a place like this, you can still get distracted. I don't know whether to say you're carefree or ignorant."
Zhang Xu winced in pain. The villain's wickedness was indeed ingrained in his bones. What do you mean by "turning evil later"? He was just a black-hearted person who could turn evil even before the later stages.
"With you here, what do I have to be afraid of? Besides, I'm just a mortal; there's nothing I can do in a place like this!"
"Since you know that, why did you come along?"
"I'm worried about the princess."
Yan Chenghuan pouted, her disdain clearly showing on her face: "Didn't you notice anything wrong?"
Like a primary school student being questioned, Zhang Xu nervously looked around at her surroundings. To be honest, in this place where everything was dark, she really couldn't see anything different. Weren't they all the same? It wasn't until Xiao Mumu prompted her that Zhang Xu nervously touched the wood beside her. All she touched was black ash. Strange, there was no fire, so how could there be black ash?
"Are you trapped in a maze?"
"They're not that stupid. This thing is trying to trap us here!" Yan Chenghuan pointed to a blurry shape in the sky. "We've been going around in circles."
"Why is that?" Zhang Xu asked, puzzled. "Is it because no living thing is allowed in this city?"
Yan Chenghuan didn't answer her. He pulled out a rope from somewhere, tied one end to the pillar Zhang Xu had bumped into, and held the other end in his hand: "Aren't you coming with me?"
Zhang Xu gave an "oh" and quickly followed behind Yan Chenghuan.
The streets around me were pitch black, and the once bustling shops were covered in a layer of black paint, so black it was frightening. The city was silent, and the sky was filled with dark clouds. The people who had not had time to escape twisted their bodies and shouted silently in exaggerated poses.
The only sound was their breathing.
