STEP AWAY! THE ANTAGONIST WANTS TO ESCAPE
74.


"Aah!"


Ming Yue jumped out of her sleep.


He fell from the bed to the floor, lucky that the floor in the inn was covered by a thick carpet. And because the air here was colder, Ming Yue rolled her body up with a blanket like a cocoon, so the fall did not hurt.


Ming Yue did not immediately move from the floor. He was still thinking about his dream just now, he did not quite remember what he had dreamed. But somehow she felt happy and it made her smile.


It's still dawn outside, it's still dark. He wants to go back to sleep and continue his dream.


In the middle of her sleep she woke up again, this time not because she had fallen off the spot, but because her nose smelled a charred smell.


Ming Yue waved the blanket that covered her eyes and was slightly startled when she found the brightly lit room.


Is it morning? He glanced at the clock on the nightstand, still five. It's not time for the sun to rise yet. When he realized, the light that entered through the window was not sunlight but red light from the fire that blazed from outside the window.


He looked out and saw the flames devouring almost half of the inn. The fire spread quickly and almost reached its place.


When the door of her room was violently knocked, Ming Yue immediately regained her senses, she grabbed her jacket and bag and then ran towards the door.


"Young master, young master Ming!" Ron's voice rang out from behind the door. Hasty and urgent. "The fire! Inn's on fire! Young master get out!" Ron did not stop banging on the door.


Ron, who had no response from within, prepared to forcefully open the door.


If until something bad happens to Miss Ming, he doesn't know what to make up for it. Miss Ming is a very important person to young master Lu.


Coming to die even though it also seems that it will not be enough to make up for his mistakes.


When Ron took a swing to break down the door. The door opened from the inside and Miss Ming came with a backpack in her hand.


As the fire continued to burn, they did not have time to ask each other about the situation. Ron immediately took over the bag from Ming Yue's hands and they immediately joined the other visitors running to safety to save themselves.


After Ron made sure Ming Yue was in a safe place, he joined others to help put out the fire.


An hour later, the fire department extinguished the fire. But the inn building now only remains the rubble.


The boss of the innkeeper stood up languidly staring at his ruined building and charred.


The fire was not a short-circuit, but visitors who lived in a central room accidentally dropped candles and burned carpets. The visitor did not immediately put out the fire first but instead ran out looking for the inn boss to report.


The result before he met the boss of the inn owner, the fire had already spread widely. And because it is currently in the dry, windy season and the building is made of wood, the fire can quickly spread.


Of course that stupid customer has to pay the compensation fee.


After a hectic morning, Ming Yue and Ron checked out of the inn and immediately rushed to the station.


The train they were to board was scheduled to leave at midday.


When the two men were already inside the train and started leaving the border. It was then that Ron no longer felt any eyes watching them.


"Young master, who's really watching us?" Ron asked. He had held back his curiosity for too long and now could no longer bear to know the true mystery of what was happening in that place and who kept observing


them.


"Village security team." Ming Yue replied briefly.


Hearing the answer from Ming Yue, Ron became even more clueless.


But from what Ron knew, the village was just an ordinary rubber-producing village. No ancestral treasures or diamonds have ever been found there.


She was really curious but it seemed that Miss Ming did not want to explain further. Ron could only keep his curiosity back.


Maybe the village holds a secret that he better not know. They are only being watched and not attacked.


After spending one day and one night inside the train they finally reached J city at ten in the morning. They got off at a different train station near the airport and took the fastest flight to the city of S.


Before their plane took off, Ron had already informed Lu Ming of their return.


Therefore once they arrived at S city, Lu Ming was already waiting for them at the airport.


When Ming Yue saw Lu Ming standing him among the passers-by at the airport, she felt her chest heat up, half a month of not meeting made her miss the man. Ming Yue mindlessly around ran towards Lu Ming and hugged the man.


"Welcome home." Lu Ming welcomed Ming Yue's embrace and whispered in his ear.


A Tai who saw Miss Ming's legs curled around her boss' waist wanted to say something. But he was stopped by Lu Ming through a gaze filled with warning.


In the end he could only shut his mouth and swallow back the sentence he wanted to say. There was not much he could do as an adjutant. If the boss said no, he could only obey.


Ming Yue hugged Lu Ming for a while then she let go of his embrace with a wrinkled nose. "Are you from the hospital." When he hugged her earlier he smelled an antiseptic smell from Lu Ming's body.


"No." Lu Ming muttered.


Ming Yue narrowed her eyes, in disbelief. The antiseptic aroma that stuck to Lu Ming's body was too dense. If not from the hospital, from where he got the smell given if the man did not use soap or fragrances that have an antiseptic aroma.


Lu Ming avoided Ming Yue's probing gaze. He stuck out his hand to tidy up Ming Yue's slightly messy hair then rubbed it gently. "What's dinner tonight." He changed the topic.


Ming Yue grew even more convinced that there was something Lu Ming was hiding. "Did something happen when I left?" Ming Yue did not ask Lu Ming knowing that he would not give him a satisfactory answer. So he turned the question to A Tai.


A Tai was in a dilemma. He was anxious to tell miss Ming what had happened, but it seemed that young master Lu did not want miss Ming to know.


He glanced at his boss to seek help. He did not know who to obey.


Looking at A Tai who remained silent, his premonition said that something big had happened.


Ming Yue looked back at Lu Ming and asked for an answer. But Lu Ming again shifted the topic. "I just remembered, Grandpa asked me to take you home for dinner together this weekend. How about we just go today?" He's back to evading.


It made Ming Yue slightly irritated."Do you want to say it or will you find out for yourself?" Ming Yue said in a threatening tone to Lu Ming.


Lu Ming silently gulped but remained adamant not to tell Ming Yue.


Ming Yue wanted to turn to A Tai and intended to force him to open his voice. But the tip of Ming Yue saw a stain on the chest on Lu Ming's shirt.


Ming Yue touched the stain using her index finger with a slight emphasis.


He glanced at Lu Ming's face.


The man gritted his jaw, his eyebrows tensed and clutched.


Ming Yue had a bad feeling. He immediately pulled his finger and smelled the red stain attached there.


Ming Yue's eyeballs grew bigger. Without a second thought he pulled Lu Ming's shirt and made his shirt buttons slip. "What the hell is this!" He shouted furiously
