Chapter 172
As the boy was about to push the door open and walked out, Xia Liang quickly cowered back from the window and looked around for a hideout .
Too bad it was on the top floor . There were no huge pillars or decorative curtains where she could hide herself .
As the moment of the boy was about to come out, Xia Liang chose the latter between jumping off the boat and hiding in the next room .
It was a risky move because she had no idea if the next door was closed or empty . But since they hadn’t discussed anything important, Xia Liang didn’t want to go back without getting anything useful .
At the moment she could open the next door, Xia Liang was pleased that she was lucky enough .
But as soon as she sneaked into the room and closed the door, she felt more regretted and panicked than lucky .
Because she was caught from back by a man into his arms . The man covered her mouth and held tightly around her waist, and lowered his voice,
“Don’t move . ”
His voice was low and sexy, very amusing and also tempting .

However, Xia Liang didn’t get the beauty of his voice .
She threw her elbow backward, trying to hit him in the stomach, and also stamped on his feet very hard .
The man didn’t anticipate her fast and strong attack . At the moment he was still dealing with the attack, Xia Liang took the chance to get rid of him .
Xia Liang jerked and stepped back right away, and finally had a rough look at the man who caught her under the dim light from the window .
He was tall and strong, wearing a luxury gown and a silver mask on half of his face, revealing his thin, sexy lips and beautiful chin, and his flirtatious eyes .

The half mask didn’t sabotage his beauty but instead added him a sense of mystery . Besides, his flirtatious eyes made him more tempting .
Xia Liang locked her eyes on the man calmly, but put on guards against him, trying to figure out solutions . His breath was long and deep . Apparently he had powerful internal force . She was not a match if they were in a fight .
The man was interested that how calm Xia Liang could be . He put a finger on his lips, meaning that they should be quiet .
It was a normal and childish posture . But he made it elegant and sexy, amusing to watch .

Xia Liang nodded and also made the same posture as he did, meaning that she wouldn’t say a word .
The man showed no intention to catch or kill her as Xia Liang made a sensible decision . He moved quietly to the other side of the wall and slowly opened a panel . There was a small hole the size of a thumb and a beam of light came out from the other side of the hole .
Xia Liang turned around and saw from the hole that it was the next room on the other side and she could even hear their conversation .
Xia Liang was happy for this . She moved forward, trying to have a good look and listening .
But before she got close, her neck was clenched by the man .
