Le Yao Yao obviously had no clue what had happened previously. All she knew was that her current situation was anything but reassuring.

If they were to fight, she would be doomed. She didn't even have the strength to kill a chicken. So based on her analysis, she would be dead.

Yet, the man beside her was being so rampant with his words.

Although she was aware of how dangerous he was, there was a Chinese saying "double fists is no match for four hands".

There were over a dozen of them against the two of them. Each of their opponents had a sharp weapon.

Yup, she was definitely going to be sliced into pieces.

Le Yao Yao thought about the bloody mess ahead of her, and imagined herself to be sliced in eight pieces. Now, she was shaking uncontrollably. She felt like a yellow dying leaf that was being blown off the tree as the fierce wind ruthlessly spun her.

Leng Jun Yu seemed to sense Le Yao Yao's fear. His eyes flashed and he spoke without thinking.

"Don't worry. I'm here!"

His voice was still icy cold, but you could tell by the tone that he meant well.

After he said those words, both of them were stunned. Leng Jun Yu's face slightly flinched. He was surprised at himself.

What just came out of his mouth was not his normal behaviour. In the past, regardless of who it was, he always faced them with a frozen expression. But just now, he actually sounded like he cared and made a commitment of some sort.

He actually uttered those words?

At this moment, Leng Jun Yu was flabbergasted.

Le Yao Yao reacted even more dramatically.

First, she was caught in a daze. Then, after snapping out of it, she blinked her big innocent eyes and thought she was hallucinating.

-Don't worry, I'm here!

Wow, that line. Although it was simple and his voice sounded a bit chilly, Le Yao Yao felt...warm.

Her unstable heart suddenly became calm.

The rumours may have made Prince Rui sound super scary, but at this moment, he was like a tree that could protect her from the wind and rain. Even if the sky collapsed, he would hold it up for her...

Le Yao Yao lifted her head and looked up at Leng Jun Yu's handsome face. Her eyes relaxed and she smiled; revealing her bright white teeth.

"Alright, I trust you."

"......."

Le Yao Yao's response was like a tiny pebble that had entered his slumbering lake. His lake had not been disturbed for the past twenty years. Now, the pebble had caused a ripple...

Leng Jun Yu didn't say anything else. His face remained frozen without any temperature. But if you looked closely, you would be able to see that the corner of his mouth had slightly curved upwards.

The assassins could see and sense the intimate interactions between Leng Jun Yu and Le Yao Yao. They were no fools; especially the leader of the pack.

He was the second boss of the Liangshan tribe, Ba Hu.

Although Ba Hu had resided on the mountains, he was quite aware of the things and people around him.

He knew a lot about Prince Rui because there were so many rumours about him. Rumours had spread that Prince Rui was not into women. He was cold and ruthless, and others also referred him as 'The King of Hell'.

Thus, Ba Hu immediately burst into laughter when he saw how protective he was of the eunuch in front of him..

"Haha, so the rumours were true! The King of Hell is not attracted to women. Turns out he is attracted to eunuchs! HAHA! I'm going to laugh to death. A eunuch isn't a man or woman, what a great match for you!"
