C10 Prisoner

Lan Xi coldly snorted and turned her head. She looked at Xiao Yunyi as if she was being trampled on. This time, Xiao Yunyi didn't eat her up. He released his grip on her and turned around to lie down beside her.

Seeing how abnormal he was, Lan Xi looked at him suspiciously. When she realised that Xiao Yunyi's handsome face was also looking at her, she couldn't help but blush as a man's voice sounded in her ears.

"Lan Xi, do you believe me?"

As a symbol of power, he didn't care what others thought of him. However, at this moment, he seemed to be looking forward to the answer. He didn't know if it was out of love for Lan Xi or just to test her.

"Hmm? Why do you say that? Whether I believe you or not, you will never let me leave this place. " Lan Xi's tone was indifferent. The identity of an assassin meant that no matter what happened, she would remain calm before Mount Tai's collapse.

"Answer me, do you believe me, like how you trust Chi Mo Han, without reservation?" Xiao Yunyi continued to question him with a hint of anger.

The air became silent. After a long time, a faint voice said, "Yes."

Xiao Yunyi laughed coldly to himself as he turned around to face Lan Xi. He was very clear that her answer was only because she was afraid of him.

Seeing that he wasn't speaking, Lan Xi no longer said anything. This was what she had hoped to see. In fact, she didn't want to deal with this' demon 'at all.

The two of them lay on the same bed, but their minds were far away, unable to approach each other.

As he thought about his plan for tomorrow, Xiao Yunyi remained abnormally quiet throughout the entire night. He just lay there quietly, and before long, even the sound of breathing could be heard.

On the other side, Lan Xi was not as relaxed. Xiao Yunyi's abnormal behavior made it even more difficult for her to understand him. She couldn't sleep at night, and after tossing and turning, she finally fell into a deep sleep before daybreak.

Xiao Yunyi woke up earlier than usual and turned around to see Lan Xi with dark circles under her eyes. He could not help but raise his hand to caress her face.

Perhaps because she felt the warmth from his side, Lan Xi snuggled up and hugged Xiao Yunyi. She even buried her head in his chest and found a comfortable position. After a while, her breathing calmed down once again.

The gaze of Xiao Yunyi, who was tightly hugged by her, was gentle. The softness in his heart felt as if it had been touched. Just as he was about to embrace her, he accidentally pressed against Lan Xi's long hair.

Lan Xi was still sleeping and showed no signs of waking up. She frowned and pushed him away before turning around and lying on the other side.

Noticing that the woman's mouth seemed to be moving, Xiao Yunyi moved his ear closer, "Chi Mo Han … Help Me... "Looking for Little Chen …"

Hearing her mutterings, Xiao Yunyi's face darkened. He really wanted to tear her apart and swallow her whole. Seeing that she was sleeping soundly and couldn't bear to disturb him, he got up and left the room in a restless manner.

Xiao Yunyi went downstairs and solemnly ordered, "From today onwards, you are not allowed to give her food or water without my permission. Take care of her and don't allow her to even take half a step out of the room. Do you understand?"

Joeline, who had never seen him so angry, bowed and replied, "Yes, sir."

When he went out, he instructed the bodyguards to double the number of the garden guards. If there were any situations, they would report to him immediately, and with that, he left.

Lan Xi woke up after a long time. When she saw that the place beside her was empty and there was no longer any familiar temperature, she felt a trace of disappointment in her heart.

He got up and was about to leave when he found that the door was locked from the outside.

Qiao Lin heard the sounds coming from inside the house. She loudly explained: "Mister has said that you are not allowed to leave the house without his permission. Don't waste your energy."

"But I haven't had breakfast yet?" Lan Xi still didn't give up.

"Before you left, I told you that you are not allowed to drink water or eat." Qiao Lin knew that she no longer rejected him, but in her heart, she could only obey her boss's orders helplessly.

Her killer's rationality allowed her to calmly ponder over why Xiao Yunyi had been so gentle last night, and why he had imprisoned her like this today.

Since he couldn't figure it out, he decided to wait quietly for him to come back. Unfortunately, until nightfall, the only thing waiting for him was news that he wouldn't come back to stay.

For the next few days, Xiao Yunyi did not appear.

As for Lan Xi, she continued to starve. Occasionally, Qiao Lin would receive a message to bring some water for Lan Xi.
