Chapter 528
Clang!
The dagger dropped to the ground.
Zhao Wan clutched her wrist, staggering a couple of steps to the side.
Then she quickly turned around, looking towards the doorway of the storage room in terror, only to see a man with a frosty expression stride towards her.
"Yin... Yin Tian! How could you... be here..."
Zhao Wan let out an incredulous cry of disbelief.
Realizing suddenly, her expression turned exceedingly ugly, "You’ve been tracking me!"
Yin Tian looked indifferent, gazing at Zhao Wan before him, and let out a cold snort, "If I hadn’t tracked you, how could I have found this place!"
"If I hadn’t tracked you, how could I possibly know that my fiancée was being bullied by you to this extent!"
Fiancée...
Zhao Wan felt dizzy at the revelation.
She had wondered about Yin Tian’s relationship with the owner of the Jade Pendant.
She thought it could be a benefactor, a friend, a relative...
But she never considered that the owner of the Jade Pendant could actually be Yin Tian’s fiancée!
"You... don’t come any closer!"
Zhao Wan suddenly bent down to pick up the dagger from the ground, intending to use the girl beside her to threaten Yin Tian.
But before she could even stand up, she heard the whoosh of air passing by her ear.
Zhao Wan hadn’t even processed what was happening when she felt her body get hit as if by a speeding car, and she was sent flying through the air.
She flew a good ten meters before slamming into a wall and coming to a stop.
There, Zhao Wan’s body slid down the wall, her eyes closed; she had fainted.
Yin Tian, however, no longer concerned himself with Zhao Wan, but instead squatted in front of the girl, looking at her.
The girl too had heard the conversation between Yin Tian and Zhao Wan and felt someone else standing before her now.
Her body trembled slightly, unsure of what would happen next.
Yin Tian was about to speak but unexpectedly noticed the girl’s grey-white pupils.
His heart skipped a beat!
Wasn’t she said to be gravely ill?
How did she become blind?
"What’s your name?"
Yin Tian’s voice trembled slightly.
Upon hearing this, although the girl was reluctantly compliant, she didn’t dare to defy Yin Tian and whispered softly, "Zhen... Zhen Huayi..."
Yin Tian’s head buzzed.
Although he had already known the girl’s name in advance, hearing her say it out loud still made his heart ache.
Yin Tian picked up the dagger Zhao Wan had dropped, cut the ropes binding the girl’s wrists, and immediately scooped Huayi into his arms.
"I’m sorry, I’ve arrived late."
Yin Tian said softly.
Being held by Yin Tian, Huayi felt bewildered; her hands fidgeted, uncertain where to rest them.
After a while, Huayi finally came back to her senses, "Brother... Save my brother..."
Yin Tian let go of Huayi and, with the dagger in hand, walked over to Zhen Songwen.
Zhen Songwen looked at Yin Tian with a complex expression, yet remained silent.
Yin Tian cut through the ropes binding Zhen Songwen.
Zhen Songwen staggered up, stumbling towards Huayi.
"Huayi, Huayi..."
Zhen Songwen was weak and nearly collapsed in front of Huayi.
Fortunately, Huayi sensed her brother’s approach and promptly reached out to steady him.
The siblings embraced each other, weeping uncontrollably.
Yin Tian stood to the side, his heart slightly soothed by the sight.
After a while, the siblings finally recovered.
Zhen Songwen turned around, straightened his clothes, and then bowed deeply to Yin Tian, "Zhen Songwen and Zhen Huayi will never forget this great kindness."
Yin Tian quickly reached out to help Zhen Songwen up, saying softly, "There is no need for this, we don’t need to be so formal with each other."
Zhen Songwen had also heard the conversation between Yin Tian and Zhao Wan.
He took a deep breath and looking at Yin Tian, he asked, "May I inquire about your name, sir?"
"Yin Tian."
"Yin Tian... Yin Tian..."
Zhen Songwen murmured before nodding, "So that’s it, you are my sister’s betrothed."
At this declaration, Huayi’s cheeks immediately turned a shade of red.
Her hands, resting on her lap, clenched slightly.
This man that she hadn’t even met, was he truly to be her husband?
Was she really going to marry him?
"We’ll discuss this matter later, for now, we..."
Yin Tian was speaking, but his voice suddenly stopped short.
Because he realized that Zhao Wan, who was supposed to have been unconscious, had disappeared!
Yin Tian’s gaze shifted slightly and then he noticed a small door still moving slightly.
It turned out Zhao Wan had not fainted at all; she was feigning it!
Seeing that Yin Tian was not paying attention to her, she had sneaked out through the small door!
Yin Tian quickly withdrew his gaze.
The matter of Zhao Wan could be dealt with later.
The priority was to take the siblings in front of him back home.
"Can you walk?"
Yin Tian asked Zhen Songwen.
Zhen Songwen nodded slowly, but then he looked at Huayi with concern.
With Huayi blind, it was evident she couldn’t walk quickly.
Yin Tian also noticed Zhen Songwen’s predicament and without a word, he carried Huayi on his back.
Initially, Huayi wanted to resist, but then she suddenly discovered...
She actually kind of liked this feeling...
