“G-Grandfather?”
Mingzhe’s hands tighten around Huang Mei’s body and his heart began to pound uncontrollably. However, his eyes remained locked with this old man’s through the heavy rain and his mind raced with thoughts of how to escape.
He’ll never give up, even after being blocked by this mountain in which he can’t see the peak of.
“Young man, release my granddaughter.”
The old man’s words traveled through the air and echoed out in Huang Mei and Mingzhe’s ears. The thunder and heavy rain didn’t affect it.
Mingzhe’s eyes flickered at his words.
After a moment, Mingzhe’s hands loosen around Huang Mai’s body.
Feeling this Huang Mei’s expression changed drastically and she immediately grabbed onto Mingzhe’s robes.
“No Mingzhe, if you do he’ll kill you. He’s only scared of hurting me that he wants you to let me go.”
Mingzhe looked down at Huang Mei’s worried but determined face and felt her tight grip.
