Ou Jue fumbled for his phone, dialed a number, and roared without hesitation, "Get someone to hunt down a man named Ye Xisi immediately. Catch him alive and bring him to me—I'm going to kill him myself!"
With that, he angrily hung up the phone.
Inside the room.
It was the first time Xiyan had ever seen something like a smoke bomb.
The room was shrouded in thick smoke, rendering her unable to see anything clearly. Terrified, she got off the bed. "Ou Jue… Ou Jue… where are you?"
Don't leave me alone...

He quickly strode back inside and saw Xiyan crashing into the wardrobe, collapsing entirely onto the floor.
"Didn't I tell you to stay in bed?!"
His voice carried a hint of anger, sharp and rigid.
Xiyan shivered and raised her misty, tear-filled eyes. "I… I just wanted to find you…"
