Chapter 218 Magical

Juu didn't expect Xiaolei's actions. Her sudden aggressiveness surprised him. He didn't stop her when she snatched his gun because he was taken aback by her sudden desperation. What's going on? Was she scared?

In the last four months that Juu had spent protecting her, they really didn't encounter any dangerous attacks. There were some minor attempts by the empire's business rivals but they weren't as serious as the attacks that Yu Chen was constantly being bombarded with. And during those few attempts, Luo Xiaolei never reacted like this. She had put all her trust in him and felt that everything would be fine. Nothing would have happened because he was there to protect her. So what was with her right now? What was scaring her this much?

Worried that the girl would really pull the trigger, Juu stretched out his hand and held the gun in her hand, without touching her.

\"Please calm down. They're not enemies. Just take a look,\" Juu said and Xiaolei took a moment to respond. Her eyes which were filled with killing intent finally cleared a little as she looked through the glass window.

When Xiaolei saw the biker take off his helmet, her mouth hung open. The biker was none other than Guan Ye.

Utterly surprised, Xiaolei's tensed shoulders finally dropped and her hand slowly let go of the gun. Juu quickly took it as the smiling Guan Ye knocked on the car's window.

When the chauffeur rolled down the window, Guan Ye's smiling face appeared.

\"Boss, how about you and Juu take our bikes instead? We will wait with uncle butler here.\" He winked and without saying a word, Juu immediately climbed out of the car.

Xiaolei was left confused about what was going on. It appeared that she was just getting paranoid and reacting too much. But what was with these men? Juu was definitely acting strange as well! Were they doing this on purpose?

After heaving a deep sigh, Xiaolei finally climbed out of the car once she calmed down.

She wanted to confront these guys but she decided not to.

\"Which of these would you like to drive?\" Guan Ye asked. \"This one is almost the same as your bike. Want this?\"

Xiaolei moved towards the big black bike and took the helmet from him. \"Okay, I'll go with this.\" She said and wore it without wasting another moment.

As she climbed on the bike, she finally realized that everything was a set up. She was surprised at the clothes they prepared for her back at the hospital. Who would've thought that these skinny leather jeans and jacket were meant to be for her to comfortably ride a bike home?

Luo Xiaolei couldn't help but smile. She was sure that Yu Chen was up to something. She had some hunch but she couldn't be sure yet. Her big panda was after all an innocent maiden. Who knew if he would defy her expectations again?

Somehow, the turn of events suddenly became thrilling. Why would he have made her ride a bike?

Once Xiaolei accelerated, she saw Juu following her from behind. Knowing that someone had her back, Xiaolei relaxed and focused her attention on the road ahead. It had been such a long time since she rode a bike. It has been such a long time since freely went with the wind like this. It was such a nice feeling and she felt like her heart was being soothed. She felt like the cold wind was letting her breathe out everything and she was truly enjoying it. This was why she loved riding motorcycles. Because she felt freed from everything as she flew like a bird. She wondered if this was her big panda's purpose. For her to clear her mind and soul.

In no time, Xiaolei reach the first huge gate of Scarlet Hill. When she entered, she noticed that Juu slowed down and signaled at her to go ahead.

After giving him an okay sign, Xiaolei smiled as she accelerated and climbed up the empty road to the top of the hill.

As soon as she passed through the first curve, Xiaolei pulled on the brakes. The bike's wheels screeched as it stopped in the middle of the road.

Xiaolei's lips involuntarily parted as she looked up ahead of the road. The tall trees willowing side by side were covered with tiny white lights. The lights were blinking as if they were fireflies covering the branches of several old big trees on the side of the road. Long strands of fairy lights were wrapped around their trunks and branches, barely leaving any gaps, as if the stars were somehow plucked out of the sky and wrapped around the trees. It was simply, utterly breathtaking.

She felt as though she was suddenly teleported to a familiar wonderland.

It took her a long time to come back to her senses. She removed her helmet and she started driving very slowly, looking around in awe. She was speechless. She was stupefied.

The trees that were lit extended up the driveway to no end. Suddenly, she felt like this was another dream. Her expectation was nothing compared to this fairytale.

The black rider, Xiaolei, took so long to climb the hill. She finally understood why she was riding a bike. This way, she could fully see and appreciate this beautiful view.

By the time she rode past the second gate, Xiaolei still couldn't get enough of the breathtaking view. She couldn't stop herself from looking around. Somehow, she found it hard to believe that these was created just for her to see.

Finally, she was about to reach the last gate. Her heart was beating wildly with anticipation. She wanted to hug Yu Chen so tight. She wanted to walk in the middle of this road, hand in hand with him. That was definitely what she wished for at this moment and she was sure she would never get tired of doing it.

Xiaolei then stopped her bike. It was because, to her surprise, the lights weren't leading her to their house. There was a small path going up the forest. The trees on the side of the small path were covered by lights.

The path was magically alluring. One could even imagine that a deity or a magical being might be waiting at the end.

Climbing out of her bike, Xiaolei followed the path. As she climbed up, it became more and more beautiful. There were tiny lights even in the leaves of the willows.

As she walked under the thick forest, she looked up and she felt like the stars were falling down like snow.

She didn't even realize how long she had walked and where was she now. She was like a tiny black rabbit being lured by the beauty of a magical white butterfly.

And then, finally, she seemed to have reached the very peak of the hill. A meadow welcomed her and there was a familiar rock in the middle. On top of the rock, someone was sitting there, waiting for her.
