Startled, Gu Yun Che could not come back to himself for a long time as he looked at the unconcealable emotion in the girl’s eyes.

  Then he gradually understood what was going on with the picture of her and her friend.

  She was testing him, testing if he was interested in her.

  On the outskirts of Bangalore, the night was silent and so were the two people in the car.

  After a moment of astonishment, Gu Yun Che regained his calmness.

  But Luo Qianqian, who was looking at him, looked very determined and bright.

  A long while later, Luo Qianqian came back to herself and realized what she had said. She turned to face the front of the car.

  She was both nervous and annoyed that she had blurted it out.

  Gu Yun Che started the car again without saying a word. He drove her back to the downtown area of Bangalore and went straight to a private house.

  He opened the door, turned on the light and called out to her.

  “Come in.”


  With a coat over her shoulders, Luo Qianqian followed him in and sized up the room.

  “This is your home?”


  “No, it’s just for a while,” Gu Yun Che said as he poured her a cup of water from a bottle.

  Luo Qianqian took the cup and drank the water.

  “There are clothes in the master bedroom, but they are all for men. Go and take a shower, I need to buy something,” Gu Yun Che said.

  Hearing that he was leaving, Luo Qianqian became very nervous.

  “Must you… go there?”


  After what she had just experienced, she truly feared being alone in this strange land.

  Gu Yun Che sized up her wounds and her dirty and torn clothes.

  “You need medicine and clothes.”


  “I will go with you,” Luo Qianqian said straightforwardly, “I don’t want to be alone.”


  She looked at him carefully, waiting for his answer.

  Gu Yun Che compromised helplessly and sat down in the living room.

  “I am not going. Shower and get changed, we are going to the hospital.”


  “You are not leaving, are you?” Luo Qianqian asked.

  Gu Yun Che nodded. “Go now.”


  Luo Qianqian looked at the other rooms and walked towards one of them. But before she reached the door, she was reminded by the man sitting on the sofa.

  “The one on the left.”


  She turned around and glanced at him, then walked into the master bedroom through the doorway.

  Then she removed the coat and reached into the pocket, only to find something inside.

  She pulled it out curiously and found that it was the angel doll she had hung on the bag.

  But she could not see it clearly because of the mud.

  After she was caught and brought to the village, she did not have time to take care of her bag. She didn’t even know when she had dropped it.

  She thought for a while and realized that it must have been ripped off when she was in the Temple of Shiva.

  Then he must have picked it up and heard that she was here looking for him.

  With this in mind, she brushed off the mud on the doll and whispered, “Thanks for bringing him to me.”


  Having said these words, she did not immediately go to take shower but went into the bathroom with the angel doll. She washed off the mud on the doll carefully, wiped it with the towel and hung it up in a ventilated corner.

  Finally, she went into the shower and washed off the mud.

  She came out with a towel wrapped around her and looked around in the wardrobe of the master bedroom, only to find that there were no clothes for women.

  Finally, she picked a shirt and put it on. But when a woman puts on a man’s shirt, it could be used as a dress.
