Chapter 1 Escape
“Hu, Hu…”
In the dense jungle, a girl in a white long dress was running desperately.
The girl held her skirt in both hands and tried to make herself run faster. While running, she turned back from time to time, her face full of panic and fear, trying to get rid of the two people chasing behind her.
The trees around the stone path were dense, and many branches and leaves were constantly rubbing against the girl's skirt. The usually noble and dignified white long skirt had become ragged while running, but she had no time to take care of these details at this time.
"Ah!" During the running, the girl was tripped because she did not discover the roots of the tree that suddenly appeared in the middle of the road in time.
After a scream, the girl's body fell heavily to the ground.
"Oh, Miss Ye, why don't you run away? Aren't you very good at running?" One of the men in black mocked when they saw the girl fall.
The girl could only watch the man in black getting closer and closer behind her, wanting to get up, but she didn't have the strength.
As soon as she fell just now, she twisted her feet. Not only that, her arms and legs fell bruised. The severe pain made her lose the strength to stand up.
When the two men in black saw the girl fall to the ground, they both stopped chasing her. The men in black, led slowly paced and walked towards the girl step by step.
"Tell me, where is the Seven Star Bracelet?"
Another man in black walked up to the girl, and the mask on his face shone with a cold light. A hoarse voice came from under the cold mask, causing the surrounding temperature to drop by several degrees instantly.
"What seven-star bracelet, I don't have it." The girl turned her head to the other side and hid her right hand under her body in her skirt.
I had heard from my father that the bracelet was very expensive, but I didn't expect that it would cause her to be killed today.
"No? Miss Ye, I advise you to cooperate with us, knowing that we have made sufficient preparations before performing this mission."
"If you hand over the bracelet obediently, we can also consider spareing your life, otherwise don't blame us for being ruthless!"
The man in black walked to the girl, squatted down, pinched the girl's chin with his hands, and said in a vicious tone.
"I said, I don't have what you are looking for!" The bracelet was a gift from grandma to her during her lifetime. She must protect her anyway.
"You're quite stubborn. It seems that you won't cry until you see the King of Hell!" The man in black said and wanted to reach out to hit the girl.
"Okay, you go and bring "her" here."
The man in black in the head stopped the other person's movements in time, his tone was still cold, but there was a hint of expectation in his eyes, and the good show was about to begin!
"She? Who is she?" The girl had a vague premonition in her heart.
However, the next second, the girl saw clearly the person who appeared. The person was neither someone else nor the girl's friend - Su Ziyao.
Su Ziyao was not as embarrassed as a girl. On the contrary, she was dressed properly, as if she was not caught by the man in black but “invited”.
"Wanqing..." Su Ziyao looked at her friend on the ground and said softly, but the next second, she immediately turned her head to the other side.
"Is the seven-star bracelet you mentioned true on her?"
A low male voice came from the mouth of the man in black, making people feel that the surrounding space instantly lowered the temperature.
"You know the consequences of lying!"
"I, I didn't lie! The bracelet is... on her right wrist." Su Ziyao looked full of fear and hesitant, but she finally told the whereabouts of the bracelet.
"Ziyao, you..." Ye Wanqing could not believe that the one who betrayed her was not someone else, but her friend for more than ten years.
