Takaki took a few steps back and turned to look around the room, as if looking for a place to hide. Unfortunately, the room was simply furnished, and he looked up at the first sight.
Ye Qianning, who was hiding on the beam, tilted his body slightly to avoid his sight. Then the next second, a crimson-purple figure rose into the air and landed on the beam, meeting Ye Qianning's eyes.
Takaki screamed and was about to make a sound, but he leaned over and was pulled over, and a pair of soft hands blocked his scream.
A unique aroma reached his nose.
"If you don't want to be discovered, don't make any noise." A clear and elegant voice sounded.
When Gao Qi smelled the fragrance, his whole body was shocked. The pleasant voice brought him back to his senses and he nodded slightly.
Ye Qianning tentatively loosened his hand and seeing that he really didn't make any move to shout, he felt relieved and moved his hand away.
The outside presence was approaching, and footsteps were heard.
Takaki panicked for a moment again. Not knowing what he was thinking about, he suddenly moved and jumped down.
Ye Qianning grabbed him again.
Takaki said nothing, but gestured with his hands, meaning that he would go down and lead the people away.
"Hold your breath."
Ye Qianning's voice was so soft that he could not hear anything. He raised his hand and stuffed a pill into his mouth.
A bitter taste spread between his teeth, and Takasaki's handsome face almost wrinkled. He held his breath, and the room was silent for a moment.
Soon, four figures appeared outside the door and gathered together.
"No."
"There's nothing here either."
There was a moment of scrutiny and silence.
They wandered around the yard for about ten minutes before a low sound was heard.
"Walk."
The high-level secret guards can sense any breathing around them by their breath. No one can hold their breath for more than ten minutes. They will leave only when there is still no one.
At this time, on the beam, Takaki's face turned red and he covered his mouth with his hands, not daring to let go until the other party left.
"Walked away."
Ye Qianning glanced at him and jumped off the beam.
“Huff…”
Gao Qi immediately let go of his hand upon hearing the sound, took a few deep breaths, and immediately jumped down. Seeing Ye Qianning was about to leave, he gasped and asked hurriedly, "Where are you going?"
Ye Qianning ignored her and walked straight outside.
“Cough cough cough…”
Takaki's breath was too fast and he hadn't caught yet, so he suddenly started coughing due to a stitch in the side.
Ye Qianning stood in front of the corridor, frowning as if he had heard something. He turned around and went back to the room, pulling Gao Qi, who was about to go out, back.
Gao Qi just chased to the door, and saw Ye Qianning coming back again. If she hadn't turned sideways, she would have been caught red-handed.
He was dragged back and took a few steps: "You..."
"Shhh."
Ye Qianning put his finger to his mouth and glanced at her warningly.
Takaki didn't understand what was going on, so he wisely kept his mouth shut.
Outside, the tightly closed door was pushed open, and a group of people walked in.
The person walking in front was dressed in formal attire and had a sword on his waist. Five or six people followed behind him. They were both old and young and dressed simply. After entering the gate, they looked around with shining eyes.
"Gentlemen, can we really live here?" a middle-aged man in his forties asked uncertainly after looking around.
"Yes, the emperor arranged for you to live here." The young man in tight clothes said coldly.
The middle-aged man and the woman next to him smiled happily upon hearing this and thanked him repeatedly.
"Everyone is tired from the journey, please rest well. If you need anything, please let me know."
"well."
The middle-aged man couldn't stop smiling, and the family walked to the hall together.
Ye Qianning looked at the group of people through the crack in the door. They were all strangers and not from Beijing.
