Yuan Jiang's heart pounded faster and faster, her fingers trembled slightly as she gripped her sleeve, and her long eyes welled up with pitiful tears of tension and unease. Her voice was strained as she said, "Okay."
She placed her small hand in Lou Ji's rough palm.
Lou Ji glanced at Yuan Jiang's slender, snow-white hand, and the next moment, he tightly grasped her hand and led her forward.
His pace quickened, his eyes revealing a hidden urgency.
The deeper she went, the more intense the unease became in Yuan Jiang's heart.
Suddenly, light appeared ahead.
Lou Wuyou feigned surprise and shouted, "Brother! Sister! There's light!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lou Wuyou ran ahead as if he were having a great time.
Yuan Jiang licked her lips, glancing at Lou Ji's smiling face out of the corner of her eye, and guessed in her heart, "We've arrived at the wolf's den?"
Stepping out of the cave, a gentle breeze carrying the fragrance of osmanthus greets you. A magnificent mansion stands before you, its gate plaque blank and unguarded.
"Wow! This place is so big and beautiful!" Lou Wuyou's eyes widened as she looked around, seemingly amazed and delighted by everything. She tilted her head and looked innocently at Yuan Jiang: "Sister, let's go in quickly!"
Yuan Jiang broke out in a cold sweat from nervousness, swallowed hard, and tried her best to appear normal: "Okay..."
Lou Ji's eyes darkened, and he tightened his grip on Yuan Jiang's hand. Without a word, he pulled her toward the mansion.
In the tense and uneasy atmosphere, Yuan Jiang carefully observed every corner of the place. No matter how dilapidated a mansion was, it would usually be guarded. However, they entered this place without any difficulty, as if they had been notified in advance.
It was this sign that confirmed Yuan Jiang's suspicions. Unexpectedly, she ended up in the Lou family's territory by accident.
From the outside, this is just a mansion, but inside it is a different world. Rather than a mansion, it is more like an enclosed small town with hundreds of houses, streets, restaurants, and... a demon-catching hall.
There weren't many pedestrians, but they all looked at the building with a hint of apprehension in their eyes.
It wasn't until Lou Ji led her into a dilapidated mansion that Yuan Jiang slowly came to her senses. She pursed her lips and looked at the land deed in Lou Ji's hand.
“Jiang Jiang, the environment here is very nice. Along the way, I’ve noticed that the people living here are warm and kind.” Lou Ji gave Yuan Jiang a harmless smile, waved the land deed in his hand, and stared intently at her with his dark eyes: “Let’s not go to the outside world. I just want to be with you.”
"From now on, this will be our home. You'll stay here with me forever, right?"
His tone was indescribably sticky and obsessive.
The boy held the land deed in one hand and grasped Yuan Jiang's slender waist with the other, his forceful and undisguised act of possession revealing his true nature.
Yuan Jiang pursed her cheeks, hugged him tightly with obvious dependence, nuzzled against his hard chest, and whispered, "Yes, I will always stay with you, my lord."
Although it's unclear what wicked scheme Lou Ji is plotting, for now, she appears to be safe.
Her husband just wanted to be with her forever, and coincidentally, she didn't want any outsiders to disturb her and her husband, so why not?
Looking at the petite and pitiful Yuan Jiang in his arms, Lou Ji pressed his long, rough fingertips against her snow-white and soft cheeks, giving them a slow, morbidly intimate warning.
From an angle unseen by Yuan Jiang, he revealed a triumphant smile.
