Princess is Glamorous in Modern Day

An Rao was dragged into the room. The room was completely dark. An Rao used her elbow to hit the abdomen of the person behind her.

Unexpectedly, this scene made the person behind her groan as if he was in extreme pain.

An Rao was stunned when she heard this groan. “Bo Xiao?”

“Idiot.” Bo Xiao’s voice came from the darkness. His tone was filled with obvious anger as he gritted his teeth. “Who asked you to come?! Do you know where this is?”

He had only heard movement outside and wanted to check the situation. Who would have thought that when he looked out of the peephole, he would see An Rao’s face? At that moment, his heart almost stopped from fright.

Bo Xiao wanted to say something, but An Rao pounced on him.

“Boohoo, Bo Xiao, you’re fine. You’re still alive.”

An Rao had been following Xia Yu and the rest for the past few days to discuss countermeasures and learn the situation in Gaia City. She had passed through more than half of the city alone and avoided the layers of blockades. She had even been so frightened that her heart had almost stopped.

Upon hearing Bo Xiao’s voice, An Rao’s fear and grievance seemed to be released. She was like a baby beast that had passed through layers of difficulties and finally found its support.

As if he made up his mind, Bo Xiao suddenly reached out and pulled An Rao tightly into his arms. An Rao cried until she was out of breath in his arms. Afraid that people outside would hear, An Rao only dared to whimper softly.

After some time in the darkness, the clothes on his chest were already wet from An Rao’s crying. Bo Xiao helplessly stroked An Rao’s hair. “I’m in pain. Let go of me first.”

An Rao let go of Bo Xiao, who walked to the side and lit a small kerosene lamp. The dim yellow light illuminated a corner of the room.

It was only then that An Rao saw Bo Xiao’s appearance. His clothes were all torn, and his body was covered in wounds from the explosion. Blood was still flowing out of some places, and there were some injuries on his arm. It did not look like he had been injured by the explosion, but like someone had done it.

An Rao’s beautiful eyes were filled with tears again.

“Ancestor, don’t cry. We have to find a chance to get out first.” Bo Xiao could not bear to see An Rao cry.

“Mm, the reinforcements will be here soon.” An Rao suppressed her tears and kept herself from crying.

“Listen to me. Someone is transporting a batch of information from the Chinese embassy. They’re handing it over in the backyard. They’re about to leave. I have to stop them. Wait for the reinforcements here and don’t move.”

To Bo Xiao’s surprise, he was still thinking of how to comfort An Rao and make her understand his actions. An Rao had already nodded calmly. “Okay, I’ll wait for you to come back.”

“Good girl.” Bo Xiao did not care that he had just escaped from the detention center. He packed his things and prepared to go out.

Walking to the window, Bo Xiao suddenly turned around and glanced at An Rao. Then, he saw that the arrogant and peerless An Rao was biting her lips and crying like a child.

Bo Xiao suddenly felt that the pain of rolling across the fire could not compare to the pain in his heart now.

Bo Xiao turned back and planted a gentle kiss on An Rao’s forehead, then wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. “Don’t cry. Wait for me to come back.” Then, he jumped out of the window without looking back.

An Rao bit her lip so hard that it was bleeding. She did not say a word and just watched Bo Xiao disappear out the window.

The gunshots in the west of the city became more and more frequent, and the place closest to the hotel gradually became chaotic. An Rao stayed in the dark room and kept listening to the sound of cars, guns, and screams outside.

In the early morning, there was even a shocking commotion in the backyard of the hotel.

An Rao looked at the window in a daze. Only when the sunlight shone in through the window did she move.

An Rao looked down through the gap in the window. The bright red flag floated up high, and the air was filled with light and warmth.

However, An Rao was in no mood to celebrate her survival.

She pushed open the door and ran to the backyard.

The backyard of the hotel was an extremely wide lawn. At that moment, the lawn was filled with debris.

On the flipped grass, the car was overturned. On a broken helicopter not far away, the propeller was still slowly turning.

An Rao looked at the broken arms and limbs on the ground and felt disgusted.

“Is there anyone else?” An Rao grabbed the Chinese guard beside her. “He came here yesterday. Is he out?”

“Who? There was an explosion here yesterday, and no one here survived.. Miss, who are you looking for? I’ll check for you.”
