Seeing Leng Zirui take out his phone, Xu Xia obediently stopped and quit fooling around with him.
"Hello?!"
"Rui, it’s me. I’ve already returned to the city and I’m on my way to Luo Ke’s villa now."
"Okay, I’ll be there right away." Leng Zirui hung up and immediately grabbed Xu Xia’s arm. "Come on, let’s get out of here first."
The two went downstairs together. When they saw the two henchmen Leng Zirui had shot dead lying below, Xu Xia merely flinched, her face showing a jolt of shock.
"Don’t look around. I don’t want you having nightmares." Leng Zirui raised his hand to cover her eyes, held her close as they walked out through the villa’s front door, then helped her into the car, carefully fastened her seatbelt, shut the door, and only then walked around to the driver’s side, got in, and drove the car toward Luo Ke’s castle.
"How did it go? Did everything go smoothly?" Xu Xia asked in a low voice.
"We didn’t catch Luo Ke or Lei Qingqing. They’re both still on the run." Leng Zirui replied.
"Those two bastards..." Xu Xia gritted her teeth to herself. "They actually managed to get away."
"Don’t worry, I’m not going to let them slip off. Unless they can run all the way to outer space, I’m definitely going to drag them back." Leng Zirui said.
"When we catch that Lei Qingqing, I am so going to give her a good beating." Xu Xia said angrily.
Leng Zirui shot her a wicked grin. "What, still jealous?"
"Tch, as if!" Xu Xia rolled her eyes at him. "It’s because of what she tried to do to me."
Thinking about it now, Xu Xia still felt a lingering fear.
Thank god ROY hadn’t really been ROY, but Leng Zirui instead.
If that night it had been the real ROY, what would she have done?!
