Bai Miao?
How did she end up here?
Xia Wan blinked, and in the blink of an eye, Bai Miao had disappeared.
It seems like an illusion.
Xia Wan looked up at Cui Ziqi.
"I want to go for a walk."
When Cui Ziqi was in the villa, she was still able to go out for walks.
However, there are human surveillance cameras around.
Sure enough, Cui Ziqi didn't spoil her mood and led her out of the main villa.
As the two walked to the center of the Rose Manor, the construction workers stopped what they were doing when Cui Ziqi approached and respectfully called out in her direction:
"Brother Qi".
Xia Wan had met most of these people before.
They were all men.
Bai Miao just now was really just an illusion.
Cui Ziqi waved his hand, and the people got back to work.
The sunlight was strong, making the roses in the garden glow a bright red. The reflected light shone on Xia Wan's face, giving her fair skin a touch of rosy blush.
Upon seeing this, Cui Ziqi was delighted.
He asked Xia Wan, "Want to go for a walk?"
Xia Wan looked up at him in surprise.
"Can I go out?"
Cui Ziqi pointed to the mountain behind the manor.
"I can take you hiking."
A sudden feeling of happiness washed over me, but it quickly dissipated.
Because Cui Ziqi took a pink handcuff and cuffed her and his hands together.
"That way you won't be able to escape."
His deep voice was full of self-praise for his intelligence.
Xia Wan looked at the handcuffs with a displeased expression.
Cui Ziqi even asked her, "Doesn't it look good? I specially chose your favorite pink."
Xia Wan raised her eyes and glared at him.
Even if the King of Heaven himself came, she wouldn't like pink imprisonment weapons!
Her haughty glance didn't anger Cui Ziqi; instead, it made him find her extremely adorable.
He cupped her face and gently kissed her lips.
Xia Wan turned her head away in disgust.
"You ate too much garlic at lunch, don't kiss me."
Cui Ziqi looked at her with a mournful expression. Had she not eaten enough garlic crayfish for lunch?
He didn't look down on her at all!
"Ouch!"
Suddenly, a pile of stones not far away collapsed, and several pieces rolled over the rose bushes and toward them.
Cui Ziqi pulled Xia Wan back two steps.
A stone rolled to Xia Wan's feet.
Xia Wan subconsciously squatted down and picked it up.
"This stone..."
The familiar buzzing of electricity echoed in my mind.
Cui Ziqi snatched the stone from his hand. He held the stone with a sullen face and looked at the people who had chased after him.
Xia Wan recognized the person running ahead.
I saw her at Sanmen Wharf before; I think her name was Xiao Gu.
Xiao Gu looked at Cui Ziqi with trepidation.
"Sorry, Brother Qi, the stones weren't stacked properly and they rolled down."
Cui Ziqi threw the stone in her hand into Xiao Gu's arms.
"If you lose even one stone, a hole will appear in your head."
"I understand, Brother Qi!"
Xiao Gu quickly arranged for people to pick up the stones.
Many people were searching for stones in the rose bushes.
Xia Wan glanced at the project that had just begun, then looked at Cui Ziqi's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot.
She said, "Why don't we stay here?"
"No, I've already promised you."
Before Xia Wan could say anything...
Cui Ziqi took her hand and walked outside.
Xia Wan kept turning her head to look back as she walked.
If she wasn't mistaken, that sound just now seemed to be the system's electrical current.
The gatekeeper saw Cui Ziqi and quickly opened the gate.
With a loud bang, the iron gate slowly opened.
Xia Wan had a feeling of being in prison. If someone shouted "Don't turn around" after she was released from prison and walked out of the iron gate, she would definitely stride forward.
Unfortunately, the 'warden' guarding her wouldn't let her leave.
This was the first time Xia Wan had gone out since she had been locked up for two months.
Xia Wan wondered if it was just her imagination, but the air outside seemed fresher than inside the manor.
This is the taste of freedom.
Outside the manor lies a natural landscape untouched by human intervention.
The asphalt road winds outwards from the manor's main gate, heading straight down the mountain.
Xia Wan then realized that the manor was actually located halfway up the mountain.
Cui Ziqi led her around the villa.
Xia Wan quietly called out to the system.
There was no response.
She looked at the iron railings covered by wire mesh next to her with disgust.
"You said you'd take me for a walk, but did you mean walking around the entire estate?"
"dislike?"
Seeing that she was unhappy, Cui Ziqi remained silent.
After a long while, seeing that Xia Wan's expression was getting worse, he finally said:
"Shall we head up the mountain? We can watch the sunset from the top."
Su Xianyu looked in the direction Cui Ziqi pointed.
The hill behind the manor slopes upwards to an altitude of about 500 to 600 meters.
The mountaintop was still some distance from the manor, but Cui Ziqi wasn't worried at all about her contacting the system.
Could he be carrying a meteorite?
"It's a bit far, I'm afraid I won't be able to reach the top of the mountain."
She nestled into his arms, acting coquettishly and seemingly boneless.
Her hands were mischievous, touching him here and there all over his body.
Are meteorites very small?
She didn't feel anything protruding in his pocket.
This guy didn't even bring his phone.
Cui Ziqi suddenly pressed down on her hand, his breathing disordered.
Where are you touching?
The man's voice was hoarse.
Xia Wan then realized that when she touched his pocket, she had touched something she shouldn't have.
She awkwardly withdrew her hand and unceremoniously put it in his shirt pocket.
"Since you don't want to go up, let's go back to the villa..."
"No! I want to see the sunset!"
If she goes back to the villa at this critical juncture, who knows how badly he'll bully her.
