Zhong Lingling frantically ran toward the direction of the villa.
Luo Xuanyu closely followed!
Racing up the wooden steps, she saw the villa door ajar, the living room in disarray, the air heavy with the smell of spoiled food. Everything in the home remained as it had been when they left, meaning Xiang Yimo had not returned since she was imprisoned in E Country's Imperial Palace.
Entering the once sweet home, seeing the seafood Xiang Yimo had cooked for her on their last day together still on the table, a wave of heartache washed over Zhong Lingling.
Even so, Zhong Lingling searched the entire villa unwilling to give up. Alas, Xiang Yimo was nowhere to be found.
Zhong Lingling was getting panicked.
She suddenly turned and ran toward the direction of the villa door!
With a clatter, she rushed down the wooden stairs, heading straight for the beach.
The sea breeze was strong, howling in her ears as she ran.
