Chapter 119: Intertwined Love and Shadows: Battle of Ambiguity
Chu Feng was stunned. Lin Xiao in front of him looked particularly mysterious and cold in the dim alley.
Without time to think, he quickly adjusted his mindset and met her gaze firmly.
The pursuers behind him were getting closer and closer, and Chu Feng knew that he could not delay any longer.
Lin Xiao stood there quietly, as if waiting for something.
Her eyes were deep, as if she could see straight into people's hearts.
Chu Feng hardened his heart and whispered, "Lin Xiao, get out of the way." Although his tone was firm, he was slightly shaken in his heart.
Lin Xiao smiled slightly, slowly approached Chu Feng, and said quietly: "Why are you always in such a hurry when I see you?" Her hand gently touched Chu Feng's cheek, and her fingertips slid along his outline, as light as a feather.
Chu Feng felt his heartbeat quicken and the hot blood in his body seemed to be boiling.
He knew that this ambiguity made him a little upset, but the current situation did not allow him to relax at all.
He took a deep breath, quickly calmed down, grabbed Lin Xiao's wrist, and pulled her in front of him with a hint of provocation in his eyes.
"Lin Xiao, what exactly do you want to do?" Chu Feng asked coldly, trying to hide his inner turmoil.
Lin Xiao didn't struggle, but moved closer to Chu Feng. She parted her red lips and whispered, "Do you really think you can escape? This is the territory of Sun's dark forces. Do you think you can escape from his grasp?"
Chu Feng was aware of the predicament he was facing. He understood that the leader of the dark forces, Sun, was a ruthless opponent and would never let him go easily.
Lin Xiao's words were undoubtedly a bucket of cold water poured on his head, but he would not give in.
At the other end of the alley, auctioneer Zhao was already walking towards this side with several personal guards, looking proud and with a sneer on his face.
It seemed that in his eyes, Chu Feng was like a turtle in a jar, with nowhere to escape.
"Lin Xiao, get out of the way!" Chu Feng emphasized his tone again, his eyes as firm as a sharp arrow.
At this moment, Pan Yue suddenly appeared at the entrance of the alley. He looked anxious, and when he saw Chu Feng being blocked between Lin Xiao and auctioneer Zhao, his brows furrowed.
"Chu Feng, be careful!" Pan Yue shouted.
Lin Xiao's expression became complicated. She looked at Chu Feng, then turned to look at the pursuers who were getting closer and closer, and sighed imperceptibly.
Chu Feng's heart suddenly tightened. He knew that the situation was becoming more and more urgent, but at the same time, he also found that Lin Xiao's attitude did not seem as resolute as she appeared.
A glimmer of hope arose in his heart, but he didn't know whether this hope would turn out to be an illusion.
"Hurry up!" Lin Xiao suddenly said to Chu Feng in a low and hurried voice, then quickly moved aside to make way.
Chu Feng didn't hesitate at all, and rushed out of the corner in one step, with Pan Yue following closely behind him.
At the same time, Auctioneer Zhao's roar could be heard: "Stop them! We can't let them get away!"
The tension and sense of crisis filled the air everywhere, and Chu Feng had only one belief in his heart - he must not be caught.
He must survive to fulfill those unfulfilled ideals.
Chu Feng grabbed Lin Xiao's wrist and pulled her in front of him, with a hint of provocation in his eyes.
This sudden action caught Lin Xiao off guard, but she quickly reacted and moved closer to Chu Feng's body. Her lips almost touched Chu Feng's ear and she whispered softly, "You're so nervous, are you afraid of me?"
Warm breath sprayed on Chu Feng's ears. His body stiffened for a moment, and a strange feeling spread from his ears to his whole body.
He could feel the faint fragrance emanating from Lin Xiao, as well as the touch of her soft body when it was close to him.
The noisy sounds around him seemed to have disappeared, leaving only Lin Xiao whispering in his ear.
The shouting of the pursuers and Pan Yue's calls became distant and vague.
Auctioneer Zhao's footsteps were getting closer and closer, and the guards following behind him all looked ferocious and it was obvious that they were not good people.
One of the guards was a burly fellow, his face thick with flesh and a thick gold chain hanging from his neck. He walked recklessly, cursing, "Damn it! How dare you run wild on Boss Zhao's territory? You're tired of living!" Another skinny guard chimed in shrilly, "Wait until we catch this brat, and see how I deal with him! He dares to offend Boss Zhao, and I'll let him know why the flowers are so red!"
Pan Yue shouted anxiously, "Chu Feng, be careful!" He gripped his weapon tightly, ready to rush forward to support Chu Feng at any time.
He knew that Auctioneer Zhao had a huge influence and many experts under his command, and it would be difficult for Chu Feng to deal with him alone.
Chu Feng could feel Lin Xiao's warm breath, and his body stiffened for a moment, but he pretended to be calm and pushed Lin Xiao away.
"Stop talking nonsense!" he said in a low voice, with a hint of imperceptible panic in his tone.
A sly smile flashed in Lin Xiao's eyes. She took a step back, folded her arms across her chest, and looked at him leisurely.
"It seems that you are really an interesting person."
Then, she looked at the approaching Auctioneer Zhao and his group, a playful smile on her lips, "It seems that your trouble is coming."
Chu Feng looked at Lin Xiao, with the corners of his mouth raised, revealing a hint of sarcasm.
"Do you think you can fool me with this little trick?" His low voice was filled with a hint of disdain, as if he could see through all of Lin Xiao's thoughts.
He ignored Lin Xiao and turned around to continue running towards the exit.
A hint of surprise flashed across Lin Xiao's eyes, but then he regained his composure, with a meaningful smile on his lips.
"Interesting, it's getting more and more interesting." She didn't chase after him, but just stood there, quietly watching Chu Feng's departing back.
Auctioneer Zhao and his group were approaching. The burly guard reached out to grab Chu Feng by the collar, cursing, "Boy, you can't get away!"
Chu Feng caught a glimpse of the movement behind him, and without stopping, he suddenly turned sideways to avoid being caught by the guards.
He was agile and moved through the crowd as slippery as a fish, making it difficult for auctioneer Zhao's guards to catch him for a while.
"Waste! A bunch of waste!" Auctioneer Zhao roared in frustration. He didn't expect that a young boy could escape from him so many times.
He glared at Lin Xiao fiercely, with a hint of warning in his tone, "Lin Xiao, you'd better give me a reasonable explanation!"
Lin Xiao still maintained his elegant demeanor and was not affected by Auctioneer Zhao's anger at all.
"Boss Zhao, why are you so angry? I'm just a bystander." She said lightly, but her eyes always followed Chu Feng's figure.
Chu Feng's speed was getting faster and faster. He rushed through the crowd and came to a tightly closed door.
He took a deep breath, kicked the door open, and disappeared outside.
Outside the door, the night was dark and a narrow alley stretched into the distance.
"Damn it!" Auctioneer Zhao roared and chased after him with his men.
Lin Xiao also turned slowly and walked towards the alley with a mysterious smile on his face.
"The game has just begun..." she whispered to herself.
A cold wind blew by, leaving only her lonely figure at the entrance of the alley, and her whispers echoing in the night sky... "Where is he going?"
