Jiang Ying Yue (10)

The hope that got ignited in her heart immediately vanished the moment she noticed that there was a shadow that moved near to the window. 

'Someone's here!' 

Jiang Ying Yue held her breath, gaze momentarily zeroing in on that shadow. Recognizing that the shape and figure belonged to a man, she unconsciously looked around the room. Her lips trembling and chest heaving from fear.

In just a couple of seconds, all sorts of thoughts ran through her head before a look of determination flashed across her eyes. With a decision set in mind, the girl hurriedly jumped from the bed and ran barefooted towards the low table on her left!

The fellow leaning against the wall next to the window did not move, only watching her with great interest. Even after guessing her intention, his expression did not change.
