Day and night alternated, and after an unknown amount of time, Qing Yu woke up from his bed.

She opened her eyes in a daze, looking at the house that came into view, and Xiao Yanzhou who was waiting by her side.

Xiao Yanzhou noticed that she had woken up and came forward in surprise, "Xiao Yu is awake, are you okay?"

She blinked and sat up with his help.

"Xiao Yu, do you still feel pain anywhere? Are you hungry? What do you want to eat?" he asked with concern.

She did not respond to his series of questions, but just looked around the empty house. All the original things in it had been moved away, leaving only the bed, small table and teapot.

There was no way to tell where I was, as the house was barricaded except for one window and door.

She looked back at him, a familiar face with unfamiliar emotions in her pupils.

She didn’t know what it was, but she felt that he was not like the Brother Zhou she knew. Maybe it was just another side of him.

"Why did Brother Zhou ask me to come?"

Finally hearing her response, he reached out and stroked her cheek.

"Xiao Yu, I miss you so much. Where have you been all these years?"

He followed Xiao Yanqing and found out that Xiao Yu was actually the owner of Liuyin Pavilion and actually came here.

She lowered her head, her expression slightly indifferent, "Go live your own life."

"So Xiaoyu abandoned me?" I clearly promised to give him a chance.

"Brother Zhou also has his own life."

"Why isn't you in that life? Xiaoyu has forgiven him, right?"

After he knew that she had reconciled with Xiao Yanqing, the hope in his heart was completely extinguished.

The only way to keep her now is by dirty means.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, he reached out and held her in his arms.

"Xiao Yu, has her injury recovered?"

"You were so badly injured, but you still wanted to escape. Every day since you left, I longed to hear from you, but to no avail."

His sorrowful words plucked at her heartstrings, and she admitted that in their battle, she hoped Yan Qing would win, but she also didn't want Brother Zhou to die.

She reached out and supported his back, "Brother Zhou, I'm fine now."

Feeling her embrace, I felt a warm current in my heart.

"Really? What about the original cause of the illness? Is it healed?" He loosened his hand slightly and looked at her beautiful face. After not seeing her for three years, she looked even more charming.

A bitter smile stretched across the corners of her lips. Before she responded, he spoke first, "It's okay. Brother Zhou will definitely find someone to cure Xiao Yu."

"Xiao Yu, can you give me a chance?"

His sudden question made her confused, "Opportunity?"

"The chance to be with me, whatever Xiaoyu wants, I can give you."

"I can also love and care for you and only marry you as my wife."

"Give me a chance, okay?"

"Brother Zhou knows clearly that I only love Yan Qing." Brother Zhou's love is equally warm, but she cannot respond.

The gentle eyes were suddenly covered with a layer of haze, which was the despair after the anger, hiding layers of murderous intent.

"If I win the battle with him, will Xiao Yu consider me?"

"What's the meaning?"

Was he telling her that he was going to officially go to war with Yan Qing?

Without explaining, he stood up and prepared to leave, as if he was going to do something.

"Wait!" She pulled back the quilt and tried to catch up with him.

But something restrained her ankle, forcing her to fall off the bed.

"Xiao Yu!" He was startled and hurried back to pick her up.

"Are you okay? Are you hurt?!"

She sat on the edge of the bed and he examined her legs and hands in a panic.

But her eyes were fixed on her ankles.

A thin chain was fastened around her ankles, the other end attached to the wall, out of her reach.

She stared at him with eyes wide open in disbelief.

His eyes were filled with sadness, and no other emotion.

"Sorry Xiaoyu, this will prevent you from escaping."

It took him dozens of men to successfully bring her back. Now that she had grown a lot, he couldn't give her another chance to escape.

"How long are you going to keep me locked up?" His pupils flashed with tiny points of light, and his confused thoughts asked himself about the next outcome.

"Until this battle is over."

"Xiao Yu can tell them if you need anything."

He stood up and prepared to leave.

"Brother Zhou, won't you regret it?" She suddenly asked, feeling not anger but desperate sadness in her heart.

He stood still, "The only thing I regret is that I couldn't keep you earlier."

Before leaving, he reminded her again, "Xiao Yu, don't hurt yourself. If I come back and find you injured, Yuanyu Street will be my outlet."

Listening to the sound fading away, tears unconsciously flowed from her eyes.

I am sad about the current situation and even more sad about the decision made by Brother Zhou.

She knew that she couldn't stop him, nor could she change his decision, because Brother Zhou, like her, had always been hiding another side of himself.

……

Not long ago, everyone in Ryuonkan was preparing to rescue her.

"Brother, what plans do you have?" Zhou Yian discussed with him.

I didn't expect that this day would finally come. His Majesty has not given up in three years. I believe he will do whatever it takes to get Qingyu.

"According to my understanding of him, Liuyin Hall must be evacuated." He told Zhou Yian his thoughts.

"Well, they are ready."

"Does Yu'er have a good relationship with the people on this street?"

"Yes."

"The same thing, be ready to evacuate at any time."

"All? Why?" Zhou Yian was puzzled.

But he knew Xiao Yanzhou's actions very well, "If he wants to keep Yu'er, he will definitely destroy all of Yu'er's hopes."

"What?!" Zhou Yian's eyes showed intense shock. Then he thought, how could a person who could even execute his own brother be merciful?

"Then, will he hurt..." Zhou Yian didn't say the rest.

It has been a whole day since Qingyu disappeared. The senior brother is extremely sad and has been wondering where he would take Qingyu.

"Yian, I'll tell you where Yu'er might be. I'll leave the task of finding Yu'er to you."

Zhou Yian quickly responded, "Okay, don't worry, with Qingyu's training at Liuyin Pavilion, we'll be able to find her soon."

"I will leave later and reunite with Wen Shu later. If you have any clues, send a message immediately."

Now he could only pray that Xiao Yanzhou would not hurt Yu'er.

He must have hidden Yu'er.

Yu'er, wait for me, I will definitely rescue you.
