Chapter 185 Escape
Guan Qiuyao was originally standing there quietly, when she suddenly saw Yun Muzhe walking towards her with an angry face. His ferocious look frightened her instantly.
Her pupils shrank slightly, and her eyes were filled with fear. Like a frightened little rabbit, she stared blankly at Yun Muze who was gradually approaching.
The next moment, Guan Qiuyao seemed to come back to her senses. She subconsciously raised her legs and ran straight out the door with extremely panicked steps.
Because she was so panicked, she didn't even have time to think about which direction to run in order to truly escape. She just rushed forward desperately based on instinct.
Her sudden action made Yun Muze, who was following closely behind her, even more certain: the woman in front of him must be Mu Yao who traveled through time!
Thinking of this, Yun Muzhe's eyes flashed with an extremely cold light, as if it could freeze the air around him.
However, despite this, he did not hesitate at all. Instead, he quickened his pace and followed Guan Qiuyao closely, not wanting to miss any chance to catch up with her.
At this time, Xiao Cui, who had been standing by and witnessing all this happening, was completely dumbfounded.
As Guan Qiuyao's personal maid, she had never seen any interaction or contact between Guan Qiuyao and Yun Muzhe before.
But why is it that when Guan Qiuyao sees Yun Muzhe, she acts as if she has seen an extremely terrifying flood or beast, and flees in panic without regard for everything?
Xiao Cui was full of doubts and couldn't understand the reason at all.
When Xiao Cui finally woke up from her unconscious state, she was shocked to find that Guan Qiuyao and Yun Muzhe had disappeared without a trace!
In an instant, a look of panic that was difficult to conceal flashed across her eyes.
Although her heart was filled with countless questions, she had no time to care about too many things at the moment. She took a deep breath, suppressed the uneasiness and doubts in her heart, and hurriedly ran out the door, anxiously searching for Guan Qiuyao's familiar figure.
At the same time, Guan Qiuyao had already run towards the mountain with all her might like a frightened deer.
As she ran, she looked back from time to time, and saw Yun Muzhe chasing her closely not far behind her. The urgent footsteps seemed to ring in her ears, making her heart more and more panicked.
At this moment, Guan Qiuyao felt that her heart was about to jump out of her throat, and the thoughts in her mind were running fast like a tangled mess.
She must come up with a plan as soon as possible to escape from this dangerous situation. Otherwise, if she keeps running like this, it won't be long before Yun Muzhe catches up with her and captures her.
And with Yun Muzhe's cold-blooded and ruthless nature, he might really take her life!
Just as Guan Qiuyao was thinking hard, suddenly, a cold and questioning voice came clearly into her ears from behind.
"Miss Guan, why did you run away in such panic when you saw me? Could it be that... you did something unspeakable in secret?"
Hearing these cold words, Guan Qiuyao couldn't help but tremble all over, staggered and almost fell to the ground.
Guan Qiuyao's heart trembled suddenly, as if struck by a thunderbolt: "Yes, my identity now is Guan Qiuyao. Judging from the memories left by Guan Qiuyao, there is no connection between Yun Muze and me at all!
So why am I running like a frightened rabbit?"
Then, Yun Muzhe's creepy look just now involuntarily emerged in her mind.
Those eyes were like a bottomless cold pool, and the overwhelming hatred contained in them seemed to be able to devour everything. It even made people feel that he would stretch out his hands in the next moment and strangle himself to death without mercy.
"No, if he is really Ling Ze who traveled through time as I suspected, then given the extent of his hatred for me, he will definitely not let me go easily.
But judging by the current situation, today's disaster is unavoidable no matter what. Forget it, let's just hold off for now and see how the situation develops.
Thinking of this, Guan Qiuyao finally stopped her hasty escape.
She held on to a thick tree beside her with her hands, leaned forward slightly, and gasped for breath.
After a long while, when her breathing gradually stabilized, she managed to calm down, then turned around with a calm demeanor.
She whispered to Yun Muze who was not far away, "Your Highness Prince Yun Ning, the reason I ran away in panic is because the look you gave me just now was too terrifying.
But, to be honest, I am really confused and puzzled. I wonder if there was any grudge between us that would make you pursue me so closely?
When Yun Muzhe saw that Guan Qiuyao in front of him finally stopped running, he gradually slowed down his pace and walked towards her leisurely.
His handsome face was expressionless at the moment, appearing extremely indifferent. His cold eyes stared straight at Guan Qiuyao, revealing a full sense of inquiry.
"It is precisely because you saw me running that I chased you. Also, are you really sure that we have never met before?"
Yun Muzhe asked softly. Although his voice was not loud, it carried an unquestionable majesty.
After he finished speaking, his sharp and cold gaze like a poisonous snake was firmly fixed on Guan Qiuyao. He observed her carefully, not wanting to miss even the slightest change in her expression.
Faced with such a compelling gaze, Guan Qiuyao's eyes flickered involuntarily, revealing a hint of panic.
However, this moment of panic was only fleeting. In the next moment, she regained her composure and calmly responded, "Your Highness, I have never had the honor of meeting you. Perhaps you have misremembered it, Your Highness?"
Hearing this answer, Yun Muze's mouth corners slightly raised, outlining a hint of a smile.
He walked up to Guan Qiuyao, stretched out his right hand and gently lifted her chin, using a little force so that she had to raise her head and look into his eyes.
Guan Qiuyao felt her heart rise to her throat in an instant, her hands unconsciously clenched into fists, and her heart began to beat wildly as if it was being grasped by an invisible big hand.
Her legs also became a little weak, and she retreated uncontrollably, wanting to stay away from Yun Muze's sharp, hawk-like gaze that carried a hint of danger.
However, how could Yun Muze let her go so easily? He saw that the hand that pinched Guan Qiuyao's chin slightly increased its strength, and then his figure flashed and quickly caught up with Guan Qiuyao's retreating footsteps.
