Guan Ru Yi gently smiled as she puts the key she just received in her pocket. Because of Fei Bao Xing who pointed to look on trees, grounds and rock, the search became quite easy.
She grinned from ear to ear, considering the man she liked so much was the one who made it all possible. If only her sister let his hand go, everything would be perfect.
"Good job, Ru Yi," Chang Miao said. "Everyone must be tired. Let's take a rest first."
They sat down on a giant root tree nearby. This time Fei Bao Xing was allowed to sit together with them. Of course, there's a big difference in allowed to be seated and to be in the conversation. While the girls chatted among themselves, no one really tried to make a conversation with Fei Bao Xing.
Chang Miao and Guan Ru Na were especially not interested, at least not when Fei Bao Xing still trying to hide something from them. Meanwhile, Guan Ru Yi was embarra.s.sed to talk with Fei Bao Xing while the other two girls were there.
However, Fei Bao Xing did not mind. In fact, it was better for him to not get involved too much with the girls.
Seeing Fei Bao Xing so unfazed, Guan Ru Na's mood turned sour. The fact that he relaxed so much was not a good feeling. If this keeps up, she couldn't prove how evil he really was.
"Sister Ru Na, what's wrong? Are you really that tired? Let me take Fei Bao Xing, so you could rest easier."
"No, thanks. I'm not that tired." Guan Ru Na said as she toughened up her posture. Most importantly preventing Fei Bao Xing from getting close to her sister.
Guan Ru Yi curled her lips in knowing that her plan has failed. Then, as if she remembered something, she looked at Chang Miao and said, "Since we decided to trust Fei Bao Xing, shouldn't we told him that..."
Chang Miao replied without batting an eye. "That is sensitive information. I know that we decided to trust but not to that extent. As long as Fei Bao Xing does not spill our secret, it's enough."
"Yes..."
Guan Ru Na sighed as she was observing her sister. Her sister has fallen in love too much that she wanted to confide all her troubles to Fei Ba Xing. But, there's no way Chang Miao would retell the worst part of her life to a stranger like Fei Bao Xing.
Fei Bao Xing, "???"
At that moment a figure appeared from the side. It was a large man who was followed by three smaller ones.
"Cha... Chang Miao." The large man tried to say in the softest tone as possible. But his voice was rough that it does not appear gentle at all.
"Deng Huan... What are you doing here?"
Usually, Chang Miao would have greeted him. But, there's something odd about Deng Huan today, that she inadvertently questioned him instead.
Instead of answering, Deng Huan asked her a question of his own. "How many points do your team have?"
Chang Miao, "..."
"Answer Me!" Deng Huan roared.
"Deng Huan, what's wrong with you? You're usually not like this." Guan Ru Yi interjected. "If you must know, our team does not exceed ten points!"
"Lie!!!" Deng Huan roared again. "I know your team has at least thirty."
"If you already know... Do you really have to ask?" Guan Ru Yi said. [How do they know our points?]
"Hmmph!" Deng Huan threw several keys to the ground. With lots of green keys and several blue keys on the ground, if one counted, it could exceed thirty points.
"It's all forty-two points." Deng Huan said. "Chang Miao, they are all for you..."
"...What's the meaning of this?" Chang Miao asked as she stared at the ground full of keys.
"I'm giving you a chance. You will have to marry me, then all these keys will be yours, and your group will earn the highest mark and get the highest reward. Otherwise... You will not like what will happen."
"You... Don't get close!" Guan Ru Yi instinctively stepped between Chang Miao and Deng Huan. She was no match for someone like Deng Huan, but to protect Young Lady, she would bow to no one.
"Deng Huan, something is wrong with you today. You're clearly not in the right mind." Chang Miao said. "Please leave now, we'll talk about this later."
"I see... So, you really don't like me! You hate me! You're just using me, aren't you!? Why, why did you this to me?"
One of Deng Huan's teammate tapped on his shoulder from behind, "Deng Huan, it's already over..."
Deng Huan calmed himself down, then suddenly his sad expression turned into anger.
"Attack!"
With Deng Huan's order, his three teammate moves and charge toward the girls.
Chang Miao and Guan Ru Yi were in the same spot, as they tried to block two of the enemy's attack, they have no choice but to jump back to create some distance.
Meanwhile, one person attacked Guan Ru Na and Fei Bao Xing. Guan Ru Na was more composed, she managed to create a perfect defend. But, at the same time, there were holes in her defences.
Guan Ru Na and Chang Miao, then jumped back to launch a counter-attack. But, before they were able to do anything, they were stopped by Deng Huan's words.
"Stop, or they will die!"
Unknowingly, Deng Huan was already behind Fei Bao Xing and Guan Ru Na. Each of their necks was grabbed by Deng Huan's large hands. If Deng Huan was to tighten his grip, they both would surely die.
They were surprised, but it was Deng Huan's strength. He was faster than anyone here. In such a short time, he managed to circle around undetected and took two people as hostages.
"Ru Na!"
"Sister!"
Chang Miao and Guan Ru Yi cried.
"I'm warning you! Don't come close!"
With the plan being successful, Deng Huan signalled with his eyes. The three men of Deng Huan retreated and tied the two hostages up.
With the hostages secured, Deng Huan stated. "Chang Miao, because I love you, I'm giving you one more chance. In three hours come to the Northern side of the forest, either you will give yourself to me, or these two will take the consequences!"
With that said, Deng Huan and his group disappeared along with the two hostages.
"Ahh... What should we do?" Guan Ru Yi panicked, she restlessly walked back an forth trying to come up with a solution.
"Ru Yi, calm down!" said Chang Miao.
"But... But..."
"It's all right. I am glad we decided to trust Fei Bao Xing."
"Ehh..." Guan Ru Yi tilted her head, unable to comprehend Chang Miao's words.
"Deng Huan is certainly powerful," said Chang Miao. "But, the man who defeated the Toxic Swamp Goby unscathed is stronger."
"Ahh! Does that mean it was Fei Ba Xing's plan to intentionally get himself captured?"
Chang Miao nodded, "Probably because he can't fight while protecting all three of us. Let's just hope for it, then see what happened in three hours."

The three of Deng Huan teammates surrounds Fei Bao Xing and Guan Ru Na.
"Heheee, our plan is succesful!"
"Hey, The rope has fallen off again."
"Thet's weird, I definitely have tightened it up. How come it has fallen off twice?" One of the men said while he retightens the rope on Fei Bao Xing. "But why do we have to bring him along with us? Can't we just kill him?"
"Deng Huan, let's just kill him!"
[Eeeekk... Don't kill me!] With his mouth covered, Fei Bao Xing could not talk.
"What are you talking about? Don't you dare kill him!" Deng Huan said.
[That's right. Don't kill me! Deng Huan, you're a nice guy after all!] Fei Bao Xing nodded repeatedly.
"It will just be a waste of points."
Fei Bao Xing, "..."
"But, while we're at it, can't we just play with Guan Ru Na?"
"Hehee... Deng Huan, let me have a taste of her?"
Because of the request of Deng Huan's lackeys, Guan Ru Na flinched, and her eyes creased. If it wasn't for her body being tied up, and her mouth was covered, she would already punch these guys in the face.
"No... At least not yet. It will depend on Chang Miao's decision later on."
Guan Ru Na could only frustrate over the fact she could not do anything. She glanced at Fei Bao Xing signalling him to do something.
Of course, in this kind of situation, there's still no light, he could not even see. Fei Bao Xing was just as hopeless as she was.
In the meantime, Deng Huan glanced at one of his men. "Is it ready?"
"I have it all prepared. Now we just need to wait, the drug will be ready in two hours."
