"What do you see when you see me?" he asked as he wrapped his arms around her. For a few seconds, she bathed in his warmth. "Do you want me to be honest?" He nodded. "I see a man who changed my world. He chuckled at that. "Not honest enough." She lifted her head. Her beautiful gray eyes stared at his brown ones. "I see the Villain." She gulped and added, "I see someone that would burn the world... just to keep me safe." "Again..." he smiled. "Again?" "I wouldn't hesitate to burn the world again just to keep you safe." ....

Suspect
Li Qiang
The two of them crouched and hid in the bushes and watched as the soldier used a tool to call on a bird.
This time, before the soldier could put the message on the bird, Wang Rouyun jumped out of the bushes and attacked the man.
"What a mess," Li Qiang could only click his tongue. Who would have thought that Wang Rouyun would attack immediately?
He sighed and followed her as she subdued the soldier.
"Take him," Wang Rouyun said. "I am going to check the premises. Bring him to the camp."
"Nope."
"Pardon me?"
"I said no." Li Qiang said. "I am a Duke. Did you really just tell me what to d?"
He could feel Wang Rouyun's glare at him.
"Fine I will— "
"No need to bring him. He's dead."
"Huh?"
