With the wind leaving no trace, the tense atmosphere faded, giving way to awkwardness and silence.
After a while, his low and magnetic voice rose again, calling her name, "Ye Jiuliang."
His voice was so soft, it made Ye Jiuliang's heart tremble.
The fearless Master Jiu, now, seemed a bit cowardly.
"Don't you have something to say to me?"
She had once asked him what he would do if one day she stole something from him.
It turned out not to be a joke; she was referring to the matter of the stolen goods.
Ye Jiuliang licked her lips, feeling a little dry in the throat.
She lowered her head slightly, her cool voice becoming tender, "You once said, you wanted me to take you away, to be my captive. Does that still stand?"
"What do you think?" Li Mochan looked down at her, a barely detectable tenderness flashing through the depths of his eyes.
His calm voice was utterly cold, chilling to the core.
