the possibility of losing her
"Say, why are you here?"
Adam stared at her condescendingly, his fingers pinching her wrist tightened inch by inch, "Tell me!"
Yan Xiaye ignored him and opened his mouth to call for help, but the man covered his mouth with his other hand.
"Um!"
She struggled desperately, and her other hand tried hard to push the man away, but failed due to the innate power gap between the man and the woman.
Because this is near the bathroom, neither the servant nor the bodyguard will stay here.
So Adam was fearless and looked into her eyes: "Woman, don't forget that you have a share of the matter that night. If I were the murderer of my brother, you were my accomplice. Don't think you can..."
Before he finished speaking, Yan Xiaye could not push him away when he saw that he simply slapped him loudly.
Adam turned his head with the force of the slap. His expression between his eyebrows and eyes was extremely gloomy, but he did not let Yan Xiaye go.
Not only that, he looked sideways at the quiet corridor, covering Yan Xiaye's mouth with one hand, and cutting her wrist with the other hand, pressing her from behind, trying to quietly pull her out from here.
take away.
Yan Xiaye couldn't let him succeed? He struggled to refuse to do what he wanted, but he couldn't help but trapped in the man's arms.
This distance and posture made her disgusted. Her sleep was wide open with a clear black and white sleep. She silently recited Li Yuntang's name in her heart, and she couldn't help but stagger forward.
Soon, a sound came from the corridor.
Adam pushed her to the wall immediately, holding his breath waiting for the people to pass by.
After hitting hard again, Yan Xiaye closed his eyes dizzyly, but in the next moment he heard Adam's scream.
"Summer Night!"
Yan Xiaye's heart trembled, and he raised his eyes and saw Li Yuntang running towards her with long legs. There was unconcealed gentleness and concern between his handsome eyebrows and eyes, and he was holding a delicately crafted crossbow in his hand.
Adam covered his arm and retreated a few meters away. The crossbow made of stainless steel penetrated his arm, and blood flowed for a moment.
Before she could see again, Li Yuntang had already come to her side, holding her face and carefully observed, "Xia Ye, have you been hurt?"
Yan Xiaye was still in a state of fear. Adam's purple finger marks remained on her white neck, and she said hoarsely: "...I'm fine."
Li Yuntang's eyes fell on that place, and his slender fingertips stroked the traces thinly.
The moment he looked at Adam again, his eyes suddenly became extremely cold.
He raised his leg and kicked down the shaking Adam. Li Yuntang's tall figure blocked Yan Xiaye's front, while protecting her, and quietly blocked her view.
The handmade leather shoes were stepped on Adam's arm, and his expression was so cold that it made people tremble. He leaned over to hold the half-cross arrow exposed outside and pulled it out in an understatement.
"ah--"
Along with his movements was Adam's scream that was not like a human voice!
Yan Xiaye didn't see what Li Yuntang did, but now he saw him put the crossbow arrow on the hand crossbow again, and the arrow pointed directly at Adam's chest!
"Li Yuntang!" She reached out and pulled the man's sleeve, and she said in cold sweat: "I'm fine, I'm really fine!"
Li Yuntang frowned slightly, and the crossbow arrow in his hand was not moving.
Yan Xiaye was anxiously pulling him, and the man's murderous side face reflected in his clear black and white eyes.
For a moment, she suddenly realized that even if she was safe, Li Yuntang was not.
For him, he could not accept any possibility of losing her, and if Adam touched her a finger, he would dare to take someone's life.
However, isn't she the same?
"Li Yuntang, listen to me, there is a very complicated inside story..."
Before Yan Xiaye could finish his words, the bodyguards and maids in the house were all alarmed by Adam's screams and rushed over immediately.
"Adam?!" Someone shouted Adam's name loudly, pushed everyone away and hurriedly came to the front, lowered his head to check Adam's injuries, and ordered the servant to take him for treatment immediately.
Then, he frowned and looked at the murderer who hurt Adam. His eyes paused on Li Yuntang, and then fell on Yan Xiaye, who was pale, "Is it you?"
Yan Xiaye looked at the other person in a complicated mood and said lightly: "Mr. Jeffrey."
"What's going on?" Seeing his son lying on the ground dyingly, Duke Geoffrey was furious and pointed at Li Yuntang and said, "You hurt a nobleman, now give me a reason, otherwise..."
Li Yuntang smiled slightly, "What else?"
Duke Geoffrey never expected that the murderer would have such an attitude. In desperation, he did not care about the gentlemanly demeanor and said gritting his teeth: "Otherwise, you have to accept the corresponding judgment!"
As soon as this statement was spoken, everyone, including the servants nearby, couldn't help but tremble.
In any country where aristocrats and civilians coexist, the nobles hold supreme glory, and their lives and property can be guaranteed to the maximum extent, regardless of any reason.
Li Yuntang nodded slightly in response to this.
The slender fingers casually pressed the mechanism on the crossbow arrow, and the blood-stained arrow flew out and pierced deeply into Adam's calf.
This time, Adam did not yell anymore.
Perhaps because the pain he suffered was at its limit, he fainted in the maid's arms with his eyes rolling.
The maid could not bear his weight, so she accidentally let go of her hand and let Adam fall heavily to the ground.
"you--"
Jeffrey could not have imagined that there was such a vicious madman in this world. He raised his hand and slapped the maid heavily: "What are you looking at? Let the doctor come here quickly!"
In this case, it is no longer suitable to transport the injured person again.
The maid covered her face and lowered her head, hurriedly leaving the crowd, probably going to see a doctor.
Yan Xiaye frowned and looked at this scene, and immediately realized that the gentlemanly demeanor Duke Geoffrey showed on weekdays was just an illusion.
Or in the eyes of these nobles, ordinary people are not worth mentioning at all, and they are not worthy of their respect.
At this moment, Duke Geoffrey gritted his teeth in a panting and pointed his hand at a bodyguard: "You, stop this murderer and don't let me do it yourself!"
The bodyguard hesitated and touched his waist, and everyone held their breath at the same time, and the atmosphere seemed to be solidified.
Yan Xiaye held Li Yuntang's hand uneasy, looked at Jeffrey and quickly said, "Adam killed his brother. I was kidnapped by him that night, and I saw this scene with my own eyes!"
"What?" Jeffrey was shocked and subconsciously looked at his unconscious son, then sneered: "Miss, your lies are so ridiculous. I do have a son missing. This is also for this interview.
