Just then, Li Baobei and Dongfang Yerong stepped out of the shop, carrying delicate pastries in their hands.
As Li Baobei's gaze swept around, she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure, but in just a moment, that person vanished into the bustling crowd like a phantom.
Curiosity stirred within her, and she wanted to take a closer look, but Dongfang Yerong's questioning voice suddenly interrupted her thoughts: "What's wrong, Nannan?"
Li Baobei suddenly came to her senses, a slightly embarrassed smile appearing on her face as she wondered if she was being too sensitive and overthinking.
She gently shook her head, smiling casually, and said, "It's nothing, let's go back!"
"Okay," Dongfang Yerong replied.
So the two turned and walked away in another direction.
Night falls and the city lights come on.
Li Baobei stood quietly by the window, gazing at the shimmering sea in the distance.
The sea breeze gently caressed her hair, and the distant sea appeared exceptionally calm and beautiful, yet also gave one a sense of endlessness.
Just as Li Baobei was immersed in the beautiful scenery, a blurry figure suddenly flashed through her mind.
She had caught a glimpse of the figure at the street corner earlier that day. Because of the distance, she couldn't see the person's face clearly, but the feeling of déjà vu was deeply imprinted in her heart.
This sense of familiarity made Li Baobei wonder if she really knew that person, and even if she knew him very, very well.
She tried hard to recall every detail of the past, attempting to find some clues related to that figure, but her mind was blank.
"I think you've gone mad, Li Baobei," she muttered to herself softly, then raised her hand and tapped her head, as if trying to clear away her chaotic thoughts.
After all, in her existing memories, Dongfang Yerong was the person she was closest to and most familiar with.
Whenever Li Baobei thinks of Dongfang Yerong, a faint smile involuntarily appears on her face.
Since she awoke, this man had stayed by her side. To her now, Dongfang was undoubtedly the most important person in her life, and the one she knew best.
After a while, Li Baobei felt a little tired, turned around and walked to the bed. Lying on the soft bed, she felt as if she was being dragged by an invisible force, and gradually fell into a half-dreaming and half-awake state.
Just then, a dark figure slipped silently through the window into the room like a ghost.
This sudden change did not escape Li Baobei's keen perception. Since her physical condition improved, she has been unusually vigilant about changes in her surroundings.
Almost instantly, she awoke from her deep sleep, but kept her eyes tightly shut, not daring to make the slightest movement, and even her heartbeat quickened involuntarily.
In the blink of an eye, Li Baobei caught a glimpse of the assailant through her slightly squinted eyelids.
The man was tall and imposing, with bulging muscles and an explosive power.
Faced with such a thug of unknown origin, Li Baobei knew perfectly well that trying to fight him with her own strength would be tantamount to throwing an egg against a rock.
At this moment, rashly resisting will not only be futile, but may also anger the other party and lead to more serious consequences.
Therefore, she decided to remain inactive for the time being, observe the development of the situation quietly, and look for an opportunity to extricate herself.
As time ticked by, Li Baobei could clearly feel the assailant closing in on her step by step.
Her breathing became more and more rapid, and a wave of tension surged through her.
Although her heart was pounding with fear, she forced herself to remain calm and tried her best to maintain the illusion of being asleep, not daring to reveal the slightest flaw.
"Beautiful...she's truly a beauty..."
"I've never seen such a beautiful woman in my entire life. Heaven has truly been kind to me."
The thug stared lewdly at Li Baobei, whose eyes were tightly closed. His gaze was like that of a hungry wolf, filled with endless greed and desire, as if he would devour this beautiful woman alive and possess her at any moment.
Today, on a bustling street, a thug caught a glimpse of this stunningly beautiful woman. In just a fleeting moment, he was captivated and utterly mesmerized.
So the thugs secretly followed them and finally found out where they were staying at the inn, and decided to strike under the cover of darkness.
At this moment, with the beauty so close, she appears even more refined and otherworldly, captivating all who see her, making one's heart flutter with irresistible desire, and one only wants to have her at one's mercy.
"My beauty, I've arrived~"
