"Seventh Miss, you should get some rest after your bath. We need to travel for another day tomorrow before we can reach the capital." Nanny Liu, who came to the countryside to pick her up, was very perfunctory. She threw down a bucket of water and left the guest room.

Mu Bingyue didn't bother about it. A servant that gained face in front of the lords of the mansion naturally didn't want to serve her, a young miss who had always been raised in another manor.

She closed the window and untied her clothes, preparing to take a shower. But when she heard a loud bang, the window that she had just closed was smashed open by a black shadow. Bingyue was terrified.

She felt a tall and hard black shadow come from behind her. The black shadow lowered her voice and said coldly, "Don't make a sound, or I'll cut your throat."

The voice was clear and cold, and it carried a strong killing intent and a murderous aura. It was the voice of a young man.

Mu Bingyue obediently shut her mouth and didn't make a sound.

It seemed that an expert from outside had jumped onto the roof of the window. There were sounds of footsteps coming from outside.

Bingyue smelled the man's scent of blood. The candlelight was dim, and she hadn't been able to clearly see the state he was in due to the emergency situation. However, she could tell from his rapid breathing that he must have sustained serious injuries.

The sound of footsteps on the roof turned to the corridor outside. From the distant rooms, a scream of surprise could be heard. It was obvious that those who had been chasing him were searching the rooms one by one.

Mu Bingyue's heart sank. She had just reacted when she heard a "chi la" sound. Half of her clothes fell to the ground. All that was left was a pink apron embroidered with primrose flowers.

"You …"

Bingyue was frightened and furious. Before she could even make a move, she was grabbed by his big hand and rudely ran towards the door.

What a strong Elemental Power.

Bingyue was seeing stars, but the black shadow had grabbed her body savagely. He pulled the curtain to cover the two of them who were in a sorry state.

"Don't make a sound!"

It was an unquestionable order. The dense, cold, and desolate gaze was like that of a dead animal, causing one to shudder in fear.

Mu Bingyue stared at him, stunned for a few seconds by his handsome face.

His facial features were clearly defined, and his skin was whiter than snow, making him look like a newborn baby. However, his body possessed the might of a wild beast, causing his beautiful face to be plated with the wildness of a male. How could God be so biased, giving such extreme masculinity and beauty to a man?

The sounds of footsteps getting closer and closer came from outside. The man pressed his body close to her delicate skin and once again pressed his dagger against her neck, preventing her from making even the slightest sound.

Mu Bingyue instantly understood what he was trying to do and asked, "Even if I don't make a sound, people from the outside will barge in. When that happens, do you think you can escape?"

The man pressed the dagger in his hand even deeper. The blade was sharp, and he could feel a sharp pain coming from it. Blood dripped from his neck. "You're smart. Can you save me?"

"Why save someone who threatened me with a knife?" Mu Bingyue sighed helplessly. Her gaze that was as pure as water was full of charm. She had a pretty face and was actually an extremely beautiful young girl.

Suddenly, he stretched out his empty hand and rubbed her exposed collarbone. A dubious expression flashed across his bloodshot eyes: "Then I'll just pull someone with me before I die. With such a beautiful lady to accompany me in death, it wouldn't be a waste to die!"

His hand suddenly extended to her sparkling white arm …

"Ah …"

Mu Bingyue couldn't stand it any longer as she gasped in a low voice. The calm expression on her face that didn't match her age cracked a little. She angrily stretched out her hands to protect her chest.

"Lecher!"

Mu Bingyue waved her hand to slap the man, but her hand was grabbed by him. In the next moment, her beautiful lips forcefully covered Mu Bingyue's red lips. Her rough palm, which had been covered in calluses from holding the sword all year round, rubbed against the tender skin of her collarbone, causing her body to burn with a "Teng" sound.
