Yin Chengyue's consciousness became more and more blurry, and his mind was no longer listening to him.
In her last line of sight, she could only see the back of the man as he walked out of the utility room. Then came the sound of a key in the lock, and she sank into deep darkness.
After an unknown amount of time had passed in the darkness, a small conversation suddenly broke into her ears, causing her to slowly wake up from the darkness.
"Let's talk about the contract later?"
An unfamiliar male voice came from outside the door, "We can discuss the price with you."
Yin Yanyue suddenly opened her eyes and realized that her mouth was blocked. Her hands were on top of a chair, and above her head was a sharp dagger. The dagger was tied with a rope, and at one end of the rope was a candle.
Once the candle was half burned, the rope would be broken and the dagger would pierce through her head.
There was a lighter under the candle, and when the dagger fell, it would set off a fire that would burn her beyond recognition.
It seemed that the person who wanted to deal with her was a ruthless person. He actually thought of such a crazy method to kill her.
There was someone outside the door. It was a good time to ask for help.
Yin Yanyue took a deep breath, twisting the chair behind her, making some noises, intending to attract the attention of the people outside.
But the sound that Henet's group could make was too soft, so people outside couldn't notice her.
At this moment, she suddenly thought of the distress bracelet she had obtained during her time in the scarring team.
But when she turned to look, she saw that the bracelet was missing from her wrist.
She had never taken off her bracelet before, so it was possible that she had accidentally broken it when she was fighting with the man.
Now that she had no way to call for help, her last hope lay with the people outside the door.
But through the warehouse door, it was hard for anyone outside to hear what was going on inside.
She saw that the candle was about to burn halfway. If this dragged on, a sharp dagger would stab through her skull.
With the current situation, Yin Xianyue could not care so much. He made a prompt decision and used all of his strength to try to fall down.
Immediately, a dull thud was heard from inside the room. Yin Xiyue and the chair fell together.
This sound successfully attracted the attention of the two men outside.
After a few seconds of silence, the strange man's voice suddenly sounded, "Boss Gong, there seems to be someone inside."
Head Palace?
Yin Yanyue's heart immediately sank as countless conjectures flashed through her mind.
He wondered if the "Head of the Palace" in that person's mouth was a viscount.
However, there were no other sounds coming from outside the door. After a full five seconds of silence, the sound of footsteps could be heard.
The people outside had no intention of saving her. Instead, they planned to leave indifferently.
Yin Yanyue took a deep breath and looked at the candle in front of her that was about to burn to the rope. Now that she was lying on the ground, the dagger in the air would land right on her stomach.
But at this moment, the footsteps suddenly stopped at the door.
The man outside the door stepped on a bracelet with his foot. He bent over to pick up the bracelet on the ground. His originally expressionless face was suddenly filled with surprise.
Yin Chengyue stared at the direction of the door as countless escape methods flashed through his mind, but they were all rejected in the end.
"Bang, bang, bang ~ ~ ~"
Suddenly, the door was knocked, and in the next second a low and familiar voice sounded, "Dye the moon? Are you in there? "
It was the young noble palace!
Yin Yanyue's mind went blank as he breathed. A complicated feeling surged into his mind.
She didn't want the viscount to come in and save her, but she also wanted him to appear right in front of her.
However, there was nothing she could do now. She could only lie on the ground and listen to the door slamming from the direction of the door.
The door to the utility room burst open, and the viscount, dressed in a black suit, stood in the doorway, his back to the light.
When he saw Yin Chengyue tied to the chair with all sorts of things, his heart instantly tightened as he walked with heavy steps to stand in front of her. He helped her up from the ground and untied the ropes around her body.
He didn't expect to see Yin Yanyue in B City. If not for the fact that he stepped on the Scar Branch's special distress bracelet at the entrance, he might have already missed her.
Yin Yanyue was in a daze and couldn't react at all.
Never in her wildest dreams would she have thought that she would meet with the viscount again in this sort of situation.
"Dye the moon!"
Fang Mo's exclamation suddenly drew her out of her thoughts.
She lifted her eyes and saw that Fang Mo was standing right in front of the door. He looked so panicked, unlike his usual cold self.
The expression on the face of the young noble immediately darkened. He picked up Yin Yanyue, and without giving Fang Mo a single glance, he brought Yin Yanyue and prepared to leave.
Fang Mo stepped in front of him, his gaze fixated on Yin Yanyue, who was in his embrace. From start to finish, he did not utter a single word.
With a cold look in his eyes, the young noble walked around him while holding Yin Chengyue in his arms, "Get out of the way."
Fang Mo turned his body and once again stood in front of him.
"Put me down."
Yin Yanyue struggled to get down from the young noble's arms and pulled Fang Mo over, "Let's go home."
She didn't want to return with Uncle Gu. It was with great difficulty that she managed to escape from the villa, so she didn't want to return to feel the emptiness anymore.
"Dye the moon!"
Behind her, the young noble grabbed her hand, his voice suddenly becoming weaker, "I've been looking for you everyday, I've already dealt with the matters over there. When we get back, we'll immediately get married, I promise there won't be a second time."
"There's no need to tell me any more."
Yin Yanyue turned around and shook off his hand, "I won't go back with you, so don't come here to find me."
She had already made up her mind to start a new life with Fang Mo. Even if the viscount appeared at this moment, she did not want to turn back.
Fang Mo had always been afraid of the young lord. Yin Yanyue would choose to leave with him.
But after hearing what Yin Yanyue had said, Fang Mo's ugly expression turned slightly better, and his heart gradually calmed down. He followed behind Yin Yanyue and planned to leave.
However, just as he took a step forward, he heard a low voice from behind him, "Do you think you can protect her?"
Fang Mo's steps halted, and his body couldn't help but stiffen.
This time, it was all because of him.
Those people wanted him to continue to make money for their group, even if they wanted to threaten him with their lives.
"You have no right to keep her by your side."
The young noble took a step forward, once again reaching out his hand to grab Yin Yanyue, but his gaze was directed to Fang Mo, "Talk to me when you have the ability."
He grabbed her by the waist, lifted her up and walked out without looking back.
"Put me down!"
Yin Chengyue roared and struggled on the shoulder of the young noble, but it was to no avail.
Just like that, Fang Mo stood there in a daze as he watched their backs gradually grow further away until they disappeared from his line of sight.
He really didn't have the qualifications to stand by her side. He couldn't protect her, nor could he give her a luxurious life, so he could only helplessly watch as she ran around because of his injuries.
He was not worthy to be the person protecting Yin Xiaoyue …
